Welcome to the Dragonflame

In a move reminding of SounthPark’s Proper Condom Use episode ,Pope Benedict was advised by the British people to launch his own condoms brand. Given Pope Benedict’s upcoming visit to the UK, the authorities gathered ideas from the people on activities and suggestions regarding the Pontiff’s visit and they got a little surprise in the box. The idea that the Pope should have his own brand of condoms was not the only idea in the box, being accompanied by things like offering apologies to the families of the boys raped by his friends or sponsoring support groups for pedophile victims.

The British ambassador with the Vatican had to issue and apology, but was unable to explain why the suggestion made it to the official folder and wasn’t filtered out. Personally, I understand the ambassador’s problem since it’s clearly an inappropriate  suggestion. continue reading…

Have you ever wanted to start your own online recruitment company? With the help of today’s online environment known as the Internet and a pinch of human stupidity, you could be on your way of becoming a top recruiter in mere seconds.

So what would you need to get started with your recruitment service? A base of names from people looking for jobs and a computer. Then, contact some companies and offer your database of candidates for polling whenever they have openings.

Thanks to Ross Miller, Resource Executive at ECRMPeople (www.ecrmpeople.com), anyone can get their hands on a complete candidate database. Apparently, the people at ECRMPeople simply send their candidate database by email. But of course, that’s just one sample of recruiter stupidity. continue reading…

Deci, saptamana viitoare plec la Nisa. Cu Tarom. Biletul luat cu o saptamana avans costa 200 EUR pe ruta Cluj->Bucuresti->Nisa. Pe ruta Cluj->Bucuresti->Suceava, costa 246 EUR. Ca sa nu mai vorbim de o “sugestie” de a ajunge de la Cluj la Suceava, via Viena (Cluj->Viena->Bucuresti->Suceava … sa va zic cat costa?).

In this world where change is the only constant, what exactly can we hang on to when we need a little peace and stability? Though the power to adapt has no limits, patience does and when struggling to keep track and control of changes, conscience may slowly drift away into a dark abyss.

In the year 1978, science fiction took the Frankenstein myth and placed it in an original shell, serving it on television under the name Battlestar Galactica. The series grew, creating a myth and then a sequel, proving to be way ahead of its times. In story and in characters, Battlestar Galactica outmatched even the cult series Star Trek. However, in characterization it was so ahead of its time that it seemed to miss on the science part of science fiction. The exotic novelty people found in Star Trek, the technobabble, the many weird aliens and many others were missing and eventually Galactica sank honorably. continue reading…

Acer’s famous Android mobile handset is one of the most popular Android mobile handsets on the market today.

CJ Sansom is one of those amazingly educated people who develop a passion for writing in the process. Sansom was educated as a lawyer (in fact a solicitor, according to the British law) and ended up using his expertise in the field of law as well as in history to concoct mind-teasing witty stories. This path may remind readers of the more famous american author John Grisham, who also uses his lawyer wit to draw immersing plots closely tied to the field of law practice.

Beside this simple fact, there are a few things you can do to ensure that your battery life isn’t drained too quickly. Most of these battery life tricks revolve around making sure that your battery life isn’t spent on programs and processes you don’t really need. continue reading…

De cativa ani buni ma mir cum de mai exista magazine de telefonie mobila in Romania, avand in vedere pretul exorbinat pe care il practica, mai ales vizavi de gama smartphone. Daca ma uit la preturile de magazin al firmelor de renume (Orange, Vodafone, MediaGalaxy, Cel.ro, Evomag.ro, Sigmanet) pentru gama smartphone, nu stiu daca sa rad sau sa plang in fata preturilor umflate (ma refer la cele libere de abonament, desigur). continue reading…
