Polska traci wpływy, gdy jej ambasadorów brakuje przy najważniejszych rozmowach – przekonuje prof. Arkady Rzegocki, były ambasador RP w Wielkiej Brytanii i Irlandii. Jego zdaniem konflikt wokół obsady placówek dyplomatycznych realnie osłabia pozycję Polski. „Bardzo często w ostatnich dwóch, trzech latach dziwimy się, że Polski nie ma przy stole” – mówi.
Me desperté antes que el gallo y antes que el mundo tuviera ganas. Abrí la cortina esperando que, al destapar la ventana, apareciera el sol prendiendo las montañas. Nada. Afuera todo seguía azul, ese azul frío de las cinco de la mañana, y las montañas todavía a oscuras. Soplaba un viento de esos que no despeinan a nadie. Hacía frío!Un frío bueno, seco, perfecto —el frío que a mí me pide agua bien helada, porque no hay mejor manera de saludar una mañana que dejar que el chorro gélido le cierre a uno la respiración y le avise al cuerpo que la cosa va en serio—. Tenía algo importante que hacer, y ahí estaba de pie frente a la ventana, medio dormido, con Rodríguez y Ramírez echados, roncando como dos motores diesel de los viejos, ajenos por completo a la empresa que me había sacado de las cobijas!El plan era simple: desayuno, sacar a los perros a estirar las patas antes de salir —no dejarlos encerrados esperándome, mirando la puerta— y después, a lo mío. Un plan de científico organizado, que duró lo que tardé en llegar a la cocinaCafé no había. Revisé donde siempre, y donde siempre estaba vacío. Una bolsa que doblé y desdoblé buscándole un resto de café escondido, y al derecho y al revés seguía vacía, la misma bolsa burlándose de mí. Huevos, tampoco —ni uno, ni el solitario que uno reza encontrar al fondo—. Y cuando fui a agarrar una sartén para improvisar algo con lo que fuera, resultó que ni las sartenes encontraba: había abierto tres gavetas equivocadas antes de dar con una que —lo juro— no sabía que existía en mi cocina. Uno cree que conoce su casa. ¡No conoce nada!
When Unmarried Couples Split Up Episode 392 – What happens when unmarried couples split up? Sometimes it can be even more complicated and unpleasant than a divorce. As with many things, it's probably better to prepare in advance. More SML Planning Minute Podcast Episodes Transcript of Podcast Episode 392 Hello, this is Bill Rainaldi, with another edition of Security Mutual's SML Planning Minute. In today's episode: what happens when unmarried couples split up? We've had a couple of episodes over the last few years talking about some of the financial complications that come with divorce. But what happens when an unmarried, but financially-linked, couple splits up? Sometimes it can be even more complicated and unpleasant than a divorce. According to the National Center for Family & Marriage Research, the number of people living together without being legally married has grown to over 20 million, up from 14 million in 2019.[1] And while most people seem to make their best efforts, things don't always work out. When things go downhill, it's not just financial accounts that can get messy. It's personal property, pets, and sometimes child custody or child support issues. When couples get divorced, the rules are generally dictated by state law. This is not always true for a couple that has never legally married.[2] In most cases, there is no automatic legal framework. Without a clearly defined set of legislative principles, some people end up being treated more like roommates and less like spouses. When you're not legally married, there's usually no formal process like there is with a divorce. And in most states, there is no spousal support such as alimony, although “palimony”—compensation paid by one member of an unmarried couple to the other after they separate—might be available if there’s “an express or implied contract.”[3] Keep in mind that laws vary widely from state to state. If you’re going through something like this, you will likely need the help of a local family law attorney. Financial considerations can become tricky when an unmarried couple splits up. For example, what happens when you buy a house together, but only one of you ends up on the deed? Despite any informal side agreements, the person whose name is on the deed is in a much stronger position. If both names are on the deed, the presumed split is generally 50-50.[4] Conflict can also arise when one partner may have contributed more financially, such as with the down payment, or may have contributed more time and effort maintaining or fixing up the house. All of this may come up when the house is sold. Sometimes, rather than selling the house to a third party, the two parties will try to work out some sort of negotiated buyout, assuming one of the two wishes to stay.[5] Personal property, such as furniture and sentimental items, can be another sticking point. One proactive financial strategy is to maintain the best records you can on who paid for what. It may come in handy if there's a disagreement later.[6] Some experts also suggest using what’s called a “cohabitation agreement.” A cohabitation agreement is a document, designed by an attorney, for unmarried couples who either live together or plan to do so. It generally covers things like property ownership, expense sharing, and rights to financial support from each other. It can be similar to a prenuptial agreement.[7] A cohabitation agreement generally covers things like asset ownership, debt and bill payment responsibilities, and financial support. It could also cover pets, which can be an emotionally charged issue, as well as estate planning arrangements.[8] What if you're in what is known as a “common law marriage?” A common law marriage occurs when two people are considered legally married, even though they haven't participated in a lawful marriage ceremony or gotten a marriage license. This generally occurs in certain states when a couple lives together for a specific period of time and holds themselves out as intending to be married, or as already married.[9] The rules vary considerably based on where you live, but in some states, a common law marriage can be subject to the same marriage and divorce laws as a regular married couple. As with a divorce, things get much more complicated—and serious—when children are involved. Don’t assume that custody will automatically be 50/50. Parental rights are often decided separately from financial issues. And just like in a divorce, a court will tend to focus on the best interest of the child.[10] Finally, experts recommend that when you actually do complete your breakup, make sure you cover all the bases. That means separating your accounts, changing passwords, and keeping everything documented.[11] It's also important to review and manage beneficiaries that may have been designated when you were together. The old adage is certainly true: love is blind. But when you build a financial life without marriage, while it may not sound romantic, it might be beneficial to treat things more like a business partnership, which in some ways it can be. A little more preparation and caution today could prevent a ton of headaches later. No one really expects their new or current relationship to fail. When it does, the healing process is difficult enough. It’ll be worse if you don't plan accordingly.

Częste zmiany premierów nie są czymś, z czym zwykle kojarzy się brytyjski system polityczny. Tymczasem w ciągu ostatniej dekady Zjednoczone Królestwo miało już siedmiu szefów rządu. O przyczynach politycznej niestabilności, nastrojach społecznych oraz możliwych konsekwencjach objęcia urzędu premiera przez Andy'ego Burnhama w rozmowie ze Studiem Londyn mówi prof. Arkady Rzegocki, były ambasador Polski w Wielkiej Brytanii.
Hay tardes que empiezan con un café y terminan con una grabadora Sanyo documentando algo que nadie va a poder explicar del todo. Esta es una de esas experiencias.Después viene la carretera, el pickup del 78, una canción que abre una puerta que llevaba mucho sin abrirse: un recuerdo de infancia, un grito, un país entero celebrando algo que ya nadie recuerda bien cómo pasó.Y al final de esa autopista, en una cantina de las que no necesitan anunciarse, espera un hombre, un Líder. Soñador de cámaras que no tiene, maestro de obras de películas imposibles. El y el Dr. entre humo, teorías cinematógraficas y vacas que caminan libres por media calle, ven lo mismo. Un vuelo que no debería ser siquiera, capaz de imaginarse.«Los Estudios de Campo del Dr. Arkady Volkov Lazenko» no son ficción pura ni son del todo verdad. Son lo que queda cuando alguien graba una noche entera con la esperanza de que la cinta se acuerde de algo que la memoria, sola, ya habría deformado.Bitácora 3: La Playa. Una amistad, empresas inasequibles de producir, y la pregunta que se queda flotando mucho después de apagada la grabadora: ¿qué fue exactamente lo que vieron esa noche?Historia escrita y edición de audio por: Valdo JiménezProducción: Nasional SkateboardsColaboran: Cannabis Airlines, Instituto Cuántico Costarricense para la Investigación InterdimensionalMúsica:- La Playa — Hijos- Janko Nilovic & The Soul Surfers — Maze of Sounds- Ennio Morricone — Cosa Avete Fatto a Solange?- Bruno Nicolai — Una Giornata Spesa BeneEfectos de sonido y atmósferas: Efectos de sonido de la Biblioteca de Efectos de Sonido de la BBC (sound-effects.bbcrewind.co.uk), utilizados bajo licencia para uso no comercial.

Soy un cliché. Lo acepto con tranquilidad.Y además, me importa un pito.Aquella mañana de mayo arrancó perfecta, de esas mañanas tan absurdamente hermosas que parecen inventadas por un director alcohólico obsesionado con desayunos largos y perros viejos. Salí a caminar con Rodríguez y Ramírez por un San Pedro que ya no existe. Menos mal que ya no existe. El actual me gusta mucho más. Hay algo profundamente sospechoso en la nostalgia excesiva; demasiada gente utiliza el pasado como si hubiera sido un paraíso y no el mismo desorden de siempre, nada más que con menos carros y mejores cantinas.Decidí no tocar la bicicleta aquel sábado. El cuerpo pedía lentitud. Antes de salir preparé un desayuno digno de un rey tropical en decadencia: tortillas palmeadas con queso, dos huevos fritos y café hecho en la bialetti con canela y clavos de olor. Todavía hoy podría reconstruir esa mattina siguiendo el sabor que quedó pegado a mi paladar. Rodríguez y Ramírez avanzaban felices, olfateándolo todo como dos inspectores enviados por Dios para auditar matas, esquinas y bolsas de basura.El almuerzo se extendió durante horas, servido en tractos pequeños, casi ceremoniales. Ensalada. Un encurtido glorioso con limón, cebolla, menta y otras cosas imposibles de recordar. Pedacitos de panceta de cerdo y fresquito de cas recién hecho. Todo aparecía y desaparecía de la mesa lentamente, como si el día no tuviera ninguna intención de terminar. A eso de las tres de la tarde me tomé un café para amarrar semejante festival gastronómico.Después vino la visita obligatoria al baño y la siesta con Rodríguez y Ramírez, los tres tirados sobre la cama como sobrevivientes de una batalla alimenticia.Historia escrita y edición de audio por:** Valdo Jiménez**Producción:** Nasional Skateboards**Colaboran:** Cannabis Airlines Instituto Cuántico Costarricense para la Investigación Interdimensional**Efectos de sonido y atmósferas:** Efectos de sonido de la Biblioteca de Efectos de Sonido de la BBC (https://sound-effects.bbcrewind.co.uk/), utilizados bajo licencia para uso no comercial.

Hay mañanas que uno reconoce desde antes de abrir los ojos. Vísperas del primero de diciembre, y el cuarto ya olía distinto: a viento seco, a ese norte que baja de la montaña a finales de noviembre y le quita la humedad al país de un solo soplido. Me quedé un rato boca arriba, escuchando cómo las láminas del techo crujían con la ventolera. Rodríguez y Ramírez todavía dormían a los pies de la cama, hechos dos rosquillas peludas.Me levanté sin prisa —el lujo más caro que conozco no se compra, se construye: nadie me espera, nadie me apura— y puse la cafetera al fuego. La bialetti empezó su escándalo de siempre, ese borboteo de olla vieja que para mí vale más que cualquier campana de iglesia. Café negro, sin nada, hirviendo. El primer sorbo me bajó por el pecho como una buena noticia. Afuera el cielo estaba limpio, ese azul lavado y un poco insolente que solo trae diciembre.

In this episode of Infinite Loops, we sit down with venture capitalist and physicist Arkady Kulikov to explore the psychology behind founders, responsibility, and self-deception. Kulik discusses why the hardest problems in business are almost always human problems, how great founders deal with stress, and why the biggest lie entrepreneurs tell is often to themselves. He also explains how investors evaluate founder psychology, why difficult conversations are essential in business, and why resilience is more about adaptability than stubbornness.

It's a very special Thanksgiving episode of Revolution and Ruin! Turgenev portrays a pre-revolutionary Russia, as nihilism and other ideas begin to circulate among the youth, causing friction and exasperation among their elders. Bazarov and Arkady try to test out their new ideological position, and learn whether or not one can be a young nihilist in love. Shownotes and discussion: http://theculturewedeserve.substack.com

This week's case is a chilling story from 2018, about a 22-year-old man with mental health issues who falls for an equally disturbed young lady. Together, they are homeless and on the run from police across Russia. They meet a kind young man named Alexander Popovich. Alexander offers to rent an old farm house to the couple.

In this comprehensive "Comment Counsel" session, New York personal injury attorney Arkady Frekhtman tackles viewer questions while exposing critical litigation strategies that could make or break your case. From revealing why you should never attend mediation without a good faith offer (warning that billion-dollar insurance companies use these sessions as psychological warfare to "dishearten you and take away your belief that you could really get a big, life-changing number"), to explaining the stark differences between suing private landlords versus cities for sidewalk accidents, Frekhtman provides insider knowledge most lawyers won't share. Learn why getting ticketed doesn't kill your brain injury case, discover the step-by-step treatment progression that transforms $30,000 soft tissue cases into $300,000+ verdicts, and understand how defense attorneys weaponize delays as part of their systematic plan to frustrate plaintiffs into giving up—all while Frekhtman breaks down real case values and settlement strategies across multiple injury types and jurisdictions.Frekhtman & Associates specializes in serious and catastrophic injury litigation and are recognized as some of the best personal injury lawyers in the New York City area.▶▶ CLICK BELOW TO GET A FREE CONSULT NOWhttps://bit.ly/atty-free-consultation▶▶ GIVE A REVIEW:https://bit.ly/review-fa▶▶ HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?:https://866attylaw.com/▶▶ CALL US NOW - FREE EVALUATION(212) 222-1111 or (866) ATTY LAW ▶▶ CONTACT US NOW - FREE EVALUATIONhttps://866attylaw.com/contact-us/

Estoy viviendo en el recuerdo de una ventana. Donde quiera que esconda la ventana, estarán esperando. 🎧 Cielos diferentes, de China Miéville. Un relato perturbador y fascinante que publicamos hace tres años y que hoy vuelve a ver la luz. Lo rescatamos del archivo, lo vestimos de nuevo y lo compartimos contigo como si fuera la primera vez. Porque hay cielos que nunca dejan de inquietarnos. Cielos diferentes. Un relato escrito por China Miéville, narrado por Olga Paraíso. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHINA MIÉVILLE (Inglaterra, 1972) es escritor, político y profesor. Nació en Norwich, aunque creció en Willesden, un barrio de clase trabajadora al noroeste de Londres, donde reside desde su infancia. Está considerado uno de los fundadores de la corriente de la literatura fantástica conocida como new weird, caracterizada por no seguir las estrictas reglas de la ciencia ficción y mezclar cultura pop, magia, steampunk y monstruos mitológicos. Ha recibido los galardones más prestigiosos dentro del género fantástico como el Hugo o el Locus. Ha ganado tres veces el premio Arthur C.

The fathers and children of the novel refers to the growing divide between the two generations of Russians, and the character Yevgeny Bazarov has been referred to as the "first Bolshevik", for his nihilism and rejection of the old order.Turgenev wrote Fathers and Sons as a response to the growing cultural schism that he saw between liberals of the 1830s/1840s and the growing nihilist movement. Both the nihilists (the "sons") and the 1830s liberals sought Western-based social change in Russia. Additionally, these two modes of thought were contrasted with the conservative Slavophiles, who believed that Russia's path lay in its traditional spirituality.Fathers and Sons might be regarded as the first wholly modern novel in Russian Literature (Gogol's Dead Souls, another main contender, is sometimes referred to as a poem or epic in prose as in the style of Dante's Divine Comedy). The novel introduces a dual character study, as seen with the gradual breakdown of Bazarov's and Arkady's nihilistic opposition to emotional display, especially in the case of Bazarov's love for Madame Odintsova and Fenichka. This prominent theme of character duality and deep psychological insight would exert an influence on most of the great Russian novels to come, most obviously echoed in the novels of Tolstoy and Dostoevsky.The novel is also the first Russian work to gain prominence in the Western world, eventually gaining the approval of well established novelists Gustave Flaubert, Guy de Maupassant, and Henry James, proving that Russian literature owes much to Ivan Turgenev.

We discuss: How speaking the language of scientists helps Arkady build real trust with founders. The AI tournament model he uses to identify 300 hidden human needs. Focusing on problems first, then funding an index of possible solutions. What he looks for in both founders and LPs. Why honesty beats hype every time. Why DPI is the only VC metric that actually matters. Quotes from David: “You don't prove your worth as a VC until you return capital to your LPs. DPI is the only metric that matters.” “The VC game is full of false positives—in evaluating companies and in how LPs evaluate VCs.” “The best thing an investor can do is give a quick yes; the next best is a quick no. Lingering maybes are the worst.” “Our technical unlock was agentic AI—it lets us evaluate hundreds of emerging needs for humanity in days, not years.” “We want to be the first check because what matters most is building deep trust with the founder, not just valuation.” “If you sold LPs on a strategy and you quietly abandon it, that's a breach of trust—it's like cheating in a marriage.” “A lot of people go into VC for ego or fast money. They won't survive. This is a long, emotionally volatile game.” “Stop wasting your life and start making a difference. If you're a founder, build what only you can build.” “There's nothing wrong with saying no—it's how you say it that matters.” “The founder's mistake is assuming your investors will make money just because you do.” “Great founders don't oversell—they're clear, calm, and self-aware.” Important Quotes from the podcast on Business and Entrepreneurship There is no skill called “business.” Avoid business magazines and business classes. - Naval Ravikant You have to work up to the point where you can own equity in a business. You could own equity as a small shareholder where you bought stock. You could also own it as an owner where you started the company. Ownership is really important. Everybody who really makes money at some point owns a piece of a product, a business, or some IP. That can be through stock options if you work at a tech company. That's a fine way to start.
ICYMI, I'll be in London next week, for a live episode of the Learning Bayesian Statistics podcast
The war between Israel and Iran, Russia's key partner in the Middle East, is entering its second week, with potential for escalation and worrisome spillover effects. Yet Moscow is not rushing to support Tehran in any meaningful way. President Vladimir Putin has even downplayed the significance of the strategic partnership agreement signed with Iran just six months ago. Instead, Putin is courting Donald Trump, offering mediation: an offer the U.S. president was quick to reject. Will there be a more heavy-handed intervention by the Kremlin to help Iran? What cards can Russia still play to remain relevant? How could the escalating conflict in the Middle East affect Russia's strategic position, including in Ukraine?
