Mesaj pentru moderații sufocați. De ce voi vota duminică (SpotMedia) - Cum mobilizează AUR mașinăria de linșaj împotriva celor care vorbesc despre violul de la școala de vară (PressOne) - Investigație Global Witness: TikTok promovează în România de trei ori mai mult conținut de extremă dreaptă decât alte curente politice (Europa Liberă) Un mesaj pentru susținătorii lui Simion, pentru cei care nu votează și nehotărâți (G4Media)Jurnalistul Dan Tăpălagă scrie "știu ce simțiți. Chiar știu. Înțeleg toată revolta, nemulțumirea și frustrarea. Știu bine de unde vine, am trăit-o și noi, la fel ca voi. Ani la rând am scris aproape degeaba despre corupție, despre jeturi private, despre afaceri murdare, despre democrația cu epoleți, despre politicieni analfabeți sau submediocri puși să conducă țara, despre contraselecția cruntă din partidele mari, despre inversarea valorilor.Din rău în mai rău, de la un președinte la altul, de la o guvernare la alta, exasperarea a crescut... Nemulțumirile s-au transformat treptat în furie. Apoi în ură. Față de toți: clasa politică, presa plătită să tacă, sistemul de putere închis la orice reformă.Și în loc să găsiți o soluție, ați căzut în extrema cealaltă: fie radicalizare totală, fie nepăsare totală. Nici una, nici cealaltă nu ne ajută. Nici pe voi, nici pe noi, nici pe țară.Ce soluții reale v-au pus pe masă, în afară de lozinci, de scandal, de haos? Cum va construi Simon „casele la 35.000 de euro”, cum veți primi de la Georgescu „hrană, apă, energie” când economia pică, leul se prăbușește, investitorii fug, iar fondurile europene sunt tăiate și nu mai are cine să le aducă înapoi?Când a fost statul român un bun administrator? De ce ar fi brusc capabil să gestioneze companii naționalizate, soluția tuturor populiștilor și dictatorilor în devenire?Ce poate aduce bun un guvern condus de Călin Georgescu, omul promovat de propaganda Kremlinului? Legăturile lui cu oamenii Moscovei sunt clare, publice, documentate. Soros, LGBT, vaccinurile, USAID — toate astea sunt petarde. Perdele de fum. Nu țin de foame. Nu plătesc facturile. Nu vă aduc copiii acasă. Nu vă salvează viitorul.”Eliberarea din sclavie”, ”împărțirea resurselor”, ”alungarea ciocoilor”, ”trezirea în conștiință”, ”puterea poporului”, ”suveranitate” sună bine ca lozinci electorale, dar nu înseamnă nimic altceva în afară de marketing electoral.Ei vor puterea. Pentru ei și atât. Și sunt dispuși să sacrifice țara ca să o obțină".Integral pe pagina G4Media.Mesaj pentru moderații sufocați. De ce voi vota duminică (SpotMedia)"Textul se adresează celor care în mod normal nu simt că au niciun motiv electoral să se ducă la vot pe 18 mai și care nu se identifică cu isteria generală.În mod normal. Dar nu suntem în mod normal. Și problema nu este că vom ieși din UE sau NATO. Nu poate să ne scoată un președinte, nu are prerogativele necesare. Ungaria și Slovacia sunt în UE și NATO.Problema este a ajunge sau nu ca Grecia în 2015, adică falimentul economic. Pericolul cel mare este a nu se mai plăti pensii și salarii, a pierde toate economiile din bănci, titlurile de stat, a sta la coadă la bancomate pentru câțiva lei pe zi, devalorizarea istorică a leului".Jurnalista Ioana Ene Dogioiu scrie pe SpotMedia că "unicul obiectiv încă din primul tur, a fost împiedicarea riscului de prăbușire economică a României. Despre asta va fi votul meu de duminică și vă îndemn să meditați dacă nu ar trebui să fie la fel și al dvs".Cum mobilizează AUR mașinăria de linșaj împotriva celor care vorbesc despre violul de la școala de vară (PressOne)PressOne a intrat în posesia unor informații conform cărora, într-un grup privat de WhatsApp, membrii AUR sunt îndemnați să dea „raport maxim” unei postări de pe TikTok în care Andreea Raicu vorbește despre violul fetei de 17 ani de la școala de vară AUR.Mesajul este distribuit în grup de George Stănculescu, membru AUR Ilfov, și fost candidat din partea alianței suveraniste la primăria comunei 1 Decembrie din Ilfov. Totodată, el este și unul dintre administratorii grupului.Un alt administrator este și deputata AUR de Ilfov Gianina Șerban, vicepreședintă AUR și vicepreședintă a Camerei Deputaților. În legislația trecută, parlamentara a fost și vicepreședinta Comisiei de egalitate de șanse pentru femei și bărbați din cadrul Camerei Deputaților.Informațiile ajunse la redacție vin în contextul în care tot mai mulți influenceri reclamă faptul că le-au dispărut clipuri în care vorbeau despre viitorul României și acuză o acțiune coordonată a celor de la AUR.Investigație Global Witness: TikTok promovează în România de trei ori mai mult conținut de extremă dreaptă decât alte curente politice (Europa Liberă)O investigație a organizației Global Witness arată, cu câteva zile înainte de turul II al alegerilor prezidențiale din România, că algoritmul TikTok direcționează utilizatorii din România în proporție de trei ori mai mare către conținut politic de extremă dreaptă decât către alte curente politice, informează Europa Liberă.Studiul a fost realizat între 7 și 8 mai 2025, în București, prin crearea a trei conturi TikTok noi, „politic echilibrate”, care au urmărit în mod egal conturile oficiale ale celor doi candidați finali din cursa prezidențială: George Simion (extrema dreaptă) și Nicușor Dan (centru).Timp de 30 de minute cumulat pe pagina „For You”, TikTok a afișat 65 de postări politice, arată investigația:74% au promovat sau prezentat favorabil viziuni sau persoane asociate cu extrema dreaptă;Doar 26% au fost despre alte curente politice.„Rezultatele au fost profund dezechilibrate. Indiferent de cum am structurat conturile, TikTok ne-a recomandat conținut pro-extremă dreaptă în mod constant și dominant”, a transmis, într-un comunicat de presă, echipa Global Witness, care a realizat investigația.Experimentul a fot repetat de trei ori. Disproporția de aproape 3 la 1 în favoarea conținutului de extremă dreapta a fost constantă în toate cele trei repetări.

Efectele alegerii lui Călin Georgescu: izolare internațională, punere în discuție a apartenenței la UE și NATO (Libertatea) - Atenţie: Pilonul II de pensii private, unde au banii 8,2 milioane de români, are un minus de 2 mld lei, adică 400 mil. euro, în săptămâna şoc după turul întâi la prezidenţiale (Ziarul Financiar) - Artiștii ies în stradă pentru democrație. Joi, la Universitate, "România SPERĂ!", vor spune într-un glas Oana Pellea, Victor Rebengiuc, Mariana Mihuț sau Marius Manole (Ziare.com) Am vorbit cu susținătorii lui Călin Georgescu după primul tur și după alegerile parlamentare. S-a schimbat ceva? (Snoop)Snoop a vorbit cu opt oameni cu ocupații variate, avocat, medic, regizor de operă, actor, casnică, lucrătoare în curățenie. După alegerile parlamentare, unii au spus că „îl iubesc și mai tare” pe Georgescu, alții au fost iritați să fie abordați din nou: „vreți să mă convingeți să nu-l mai votez?”, în vreme ce unul dintre ei s-a răzgândit chiar înainte de parlamentare, „după documentarul Recorder”.Snoop a stat de vorbă cu votanții lui Călin Georgescu, să înțeleagă cu ce i-a convins acesta să îi ofere încrederea lor.În urma interviurilor, a identificat 12 teme și cuvinte-cheie: ca frecvență și importanță acordată de către intervievați.6 termeni au fost menționați cu asocieri pozitive, iar ceilalți 6 cu conotații negative. Cuvintele sunt: spiritualitate, sănătate, acasă/întoarcere, iubire, calm, diplomat (pozitiv), respectiv Ucraina, USR, LGBT/gay/homosexual, PSD, sionist/evreu, vaccin/COVID.Când am căutat pe grupurile de Telegram ale susținătorilor lui Călin Georgescu, cu ajutorul unui soft special, cuvintele-cheie din discuțiile noastre le-am regăsit cu mare frecvență. Ceea ce sugerează că sunt teme importante în discuțiile dintre susținători și în ceea ce-i preocupă pe votanții lui Călin Georgescu.Călin Georgescu a fost opțiunea a 2.120.401 dintre alegători.Efectele alegerii lui Călin Georgescu: izolare internațională, punere în discuție a apartenenței la UE și NATO (Libertatea)Cursa pentru Palatul Cotroceni intră pe ultima sută de metri. În timp ce unele partide se poziționează clar pentru un candidat (PNL, UDMR, SENS, REPER sunt pro-Lasconi, în timp ce POT și AUR pro-Georgescu), altele joacă o carte a așa-zisei neutralități, cum e cazul PSD, care speră să fie ori cu un președinte, ori cu celălalt într-o formula politică aflată la guvernare. Libertatea a vrut să afle ce ar putea însemna pentru România, în plan extern și intern, ca în cea mai importantă funcție din stat să fie un politician care își exprimă aprecierea pentru Putin, are un discurs antipartide, împotriva instituțiilor europene și care pune sub semnul întrebării apartenența la NATO. Iar aspectul esențial este cel al limitelor pe care le are din punct de vedere al exercitării mandatului. Politologul George Jiglău susține că influența și puterea de care va beneficia Călin Georgescu, dacă va fi președinte, va depinde mult dacă va avea o majoritate parlamentară și un Guvern pe linia sa de gândire sau dacă îi vor fi ostile. ROEXIT? „Vedem că la nivelul populației este o parte care rezonează cu ideile lui Georgescu. Este acel narativ anti-UE. Nu știm câți la sută din cei care au votat sau vor vota aderă la ideea că UE nu ne ajută la nimic, dar există cu siguranță. Dacă s-ar ajunge la referendum nu m-aș baza foarte mult că populația ar respinge categoric ieșirea României din UE, chiar dacă și zilele acestea sondajele ne-au arătat că suntem favorabili la ideea de UE. Dacă s-a întâmplat în Marea Britanie (n.r. – referendum pentru ieșirea din UE) nu văd de ce nu s-ar întâmpla și la noi sau în altă parte”, a declarat pentru Libertatea George Jiglău.Atenţie: Pilonul II de pensii private, unde au banii 8,2 milioane de români, are un minus de 2 mld lei, adică 400 mil. euro, în săptămâna şoc după turul întâi la prezidenţiale (Ziarul Financiar)Potenţialul unui episod de euroscepticism a speriat investitorii, atât români, cât şi străini l Incertitudinea generată de alegeri şi anxietatea instalată în societate cu privire la riscul unei schimbări de direcţie a României au adus scăderi atât pe piaţa titlurilor de stat româneşti, cât şi pe Bursa de la Bucureşti, iar Pilonul II nu este imun la această volatilitate. Pilonul II a mai avut scăderi abrupte în ultima perioadă, pe care le-a recuperat după normalizarea condiţiilor de piaţă, reaminteșteZiarul Financiar.În paginile aceleiași publicații găsiți și mesajul antreprenorilor români din sectoare cheie ale economiei, din industrie, comerţ, construcţii, transporturi, HoReCa şi servicii medicale: Românii au arătat că atunci când există un pericol mare se mobilizează, se unesc.Dan Ostahie (Altex), Adrian Mihai (FAN Courier), Dragoş Petrescu (City Grill), Iulian Stanciu (eMag), Cristian Erbaşu (Construcţii Erbaşu) şi Mihai Miron (Ropharma) au vorbit despre ce a câştigat România în ultimii 30 de ani, despre drumul european şi euroatlantic al ţării, despre responsabilitatea antreprenorilor faţă de ţară, dar au remarcat însă şi strigătul unei părţi însemnate a populaţiei care a fost uitată de clasa politică în ultimii ani. Artiștii ies în stradă pentru democrație. Joi, la Universitate, "România SPERĂ!", vor spune într-un glas Oana Pellea, Victor Rebengiuc, Mariana Mihuț sau Marius Manole (Ziare.com)Artiștii din România anunță un eveniment manifest pro-democrație pentru joi, 5 decembrie, la ora 20:00, la Universitate. Sub titlul "România SPERĂ!", Oana Pellea a postat pe pagina personală de Facebook anunțul făcut de toți cei care vor organiza un maraton civic despre liberate și democrație. "Vino joi la ora 20:00 la Universitate alături de Oana Pellea, Victor Rebengiuc, Mariana Mihuț, Marius Manole, Mihai Călin, Dan Teodorescu & Trupa Taxi, Oana Gheorghiu, Carmen Uscatu, Radu Vancu, Cătălin Striblea, byron, Valeriu Nicolae pentru un maraton civic despre liberate și democrație. La 35 de ani de la Revoluția care ne-a deschis calea către libertate și democrație, România se află într-un moment decisiv. Nici acum nu știm adevărul despre ce s-a întâmplat atunci, dar știm că sacrificiul celor care au visat o țară în care copiii lor să fie liberi a deschis calea unui drum greu, presărat cu multe dezamăgiri dar și cu cele mai importante realizări ale societății noastre: dreptul de a călători, a se stabili, a învăța și a lucra în țările Europei și apartenența la cea mai mare organizație interstatală de securitate. Demnitatea umană, libertățile fundamentale, egalitatea între persoane, solidaritatea, drepturile cetățenilor și justiția sunt valorile care ne pot uni pe toți. 'România SPERĂ' reprezintă strigătul nostru comun pentru protejarea și consolidarea acestor valori fundamentale", scrie în mesajul artiștilor.Ziare.com amintește că și Elena Lasconi, candidata USR la președinția României, a anunțat, o manifestație pro-Europa în Piața Victoriei, pentru joi seara, de la ora 17:00.
Hoy quiero llevarte de nuevo al corazón de Japón, no sólo como destino turístico, sino como una experiencia cultural y feminista. Y es que, en nuestro próximo viaje a Japón con Irene Saki, además de recorrer esos paisajes icónicos como el Monte Fuji o las puertas Torii de Kioto queremos añadir esa perspectiva de género tan propia de los viajes hacia lo salvaje, observar, conversar y debatir sobre la situación de la mujer japonesa. Así que hoy vamos a empezar ese viaje juntas en este podcast, reflexionando sobre el papel de la mujer en Japón, desde su historia hasta la actualidad y para ello me acompañan dos invitadas excepcionales, que desde perspectivas muy diferentes estoy convencida de que nos van a enriquecer mucho esta tertulia. Laura López Coto es estudiosa y divulgadora de la cultura japonesa Seitai a nivel internacional. Su experiencia nos brindará una perspectiva única sobre cómo las normas sociales han influido en la percepción del cuerpo de la mujer en el mundo en general y en Japón en particular. María José Inda es artista e investigadora en arte asiático con un máster en Estudios Japoneses. Su conocimiento de la cultura japonesa nos permitirá entender cómo el arte y las tradiciones han moldeado la percepción del rol de la mujer en la sociedad.

What will Yumi's future look like?" he wondered.Ja: 「ここが重要な場所だよ、カイト。」ヒロシが少し先から振り返って言った。En: "This is an important place, Kaito," Hiroshi said, turning around from a little ahead.Ja: 大きな鳥居の前には、清められた水が置かれ、小さな賽銭箱が鎮座していた。En: Before the large torii, purified water was placed with a small offering box solemnly standing.Ja: カイトは深呼吸をして、真剣な顔つきで歩を進めた。En: Kaito took a deep breath and proceeded with a serious expression.Ja: 神社の中では、人々が祈りを捧げ、恵まれた日常に感謝していた。En: Inside the shrine, people offered prayers and gave thanks for their blessed daily lives.Ja: カイトもヒロシと一緒に神主からお祓いを受け、ユミの健康と幸せを心から願った。En: Kaito, together with Hiroshi, received purification rites from the kannushi, a Shinto priest, and sincerely wished for Yumi's health and happiness.Ja: しかし、一番重要なのはその後だった。En: However, the most important moment came afterward.Ja: カイトはポケットから小さな紙を取り出し、そこにそっと願いを書き記した。En: Kaito took a small piece of paper out of his pocket and quietly inscribed his wish upon it.Ja: その紙には、彼の心からの思い、妻と娘への愛、そして未来への不安が詰まっていた。En: That paper contained his heartfelt desires, love for his wife and daughter, and anxieties about the future.Ja: カイトはその紙を丁寧に結び、そっと目を閉じた。En: Kaito carefully tied the paper, gently closing his eyes.Ja: 「ユミの人生が素晴らしいものでありますように。」彼の心の中で強く願いながら、En: "May Yumi's life be wonderful," he wished strongly in his heart.Ja: 目を開けた瞬間、色とりどりの秋の葉が風に舞い、彼らの上に舞い降りてきた。それはまるで、お祝いのメッセージのようだった。En: As he opened his eyes, colorful autumn leaves were carried by the wind, dancing above them like a celebratory message.Ja: カイトはその光景に感動し、心の中で大きな喜びと安らぎを感じた。En: Kaito was moved by the scene and felt a profound joy and peace within.Ja: 「すべてはきっと大丈夫だ」と。En: "Everything will surely be alright," he thought.Ja: 神社を後にしたカイトは、重かった心が軽くなったような気持ちになり、これからの生活に対する新たな希望を感じていた。En: Leaving the shrine, Kaito felt as if the weight on his heart had lightened and sensed newfound hope for the future.Ja: 彼はユミの手をしっかりと握り、笑顔でヒロシと共に家路へと向かった。En: Holding Yumi's hand firmly, he smiled and headed home with Hiroshi.Ja: どんな未来が待っていても、彼は今、できることをしようと思った。En: No matter what future awaited them, he decided to do what he could now.Ja: 最も大切なのは、愛と希望があれば、どんなことも乗り越えられるということを知ったからである。En: He came to understand that with love and hope, any challenge could be overcome.

FigVision e un startup care folosește inteligența artificială ca să ajută designerii să poată să-și automatizeze munca de creare de pagini de produs pornind de la o simplă imagine sau un screenshot. Am discutat cu Andrei Manolache, unul dintre cofondatorii startup-ului, după ce au fost câștigătorii concursului Startup Spotlight, acolo unde au intrat într-o negociere pentru a primi o investiție de 350.000 de euro.
Începând cu primăvara anului viitor, zeci de mii de tineri care împlinesc 18 ani anul acesta vor avea posibilitatea de a explora Europa fără niciun cost, prin intermediul programului Discover EU. Proiectul a fost lansat în 2018, la inițiativa Parlamentului European și acum este parte a programului Erasmus+. Proiectul, care se desfășoară anual, își propune să ofere tinerilor o mai bună înțelegere a culturilor și istoriei europene, îmbunătățindu-le în același timp competențele lingvistice.Se poate spune că lansarea sa a fost inclusiv urmarea lecțiilor trase de pe urma Brexitului. Legiuitorii europeni au intenționat să le ofere tinerilor posibilitatea de a cunoaște Europa și de a se bucura de libertatea de mișcare conferită de normele europene.În total, sunt disponibile 35.500 de permise de călătorie. Pentru a se califica, tinerii născuți între 1 ianuarie și 31 decembrie 2006 trebuie să răspundă mai întâi la un quiz format din cinci întrebări despre UE, împreună cu o întrebare suplimentară pe Portalul European pentru Tineret.Candidații vor fi clasificați pe baza răspunsurilor lor, iar permisele de călătorie vor fi distribuite pe baza acestui clasament. Programul este accesibil tinerilor din Uniunea Europeană dar și din țările asociate programului Erasmus+ : Islanda, Liechtenstein, Macedonia de Nord, Norvegia, Serbia și Turcia. Cererea de propuneri este deschisă până la 16 octombrie, ora 12:00 CET.Solicitanții selectați vor avea posibilitatea de a călători în întreaga Europă timp de până la 30 de zile între 1 martie 2025 și 31 mai 2026.Mai multe opțiuniAceștia pot fie să își planifice propriile rute, fie să se inspire din cele existente. De exemplu, Ruta Culturală Discover EU, de la Guimarães (Portugalia) la Eskișehir (Turcia) și de la Stavanger (Norvegia) la Valletta (Malta), traseul propune o lecție deschisă despre patrimoniul cultural vast și divers al Europei.Pot fi alese capitalele europene ale culturii, Chemnitz din Germania și Nova Gorica din Slovenia. Sau tinetii pot opta pentru ruta ”Drumul bun”, care se axează pe sănătatea fizică și mintală în timpul călătoriilor. Sau pentru orașele cuprinse în programul Acces City Award, care evidențiază orașele cu cel mai bun acces pentru persoanele cu dizabilități.Desigur, lista este cu mult mai vastă, dacă ne gândim la nenumăratele obiective din Europa cuprinse în patrimoniul mondial UNESCO sau care poartă Marca patrimoniului european.În plus față de permisul de călătorie gratuit, participanții vor primi, de asemenea, card de reducere cu peste 40.000 de oferte privind transportul public, cultura, cazarea, mâncarea, sportul și alte servicii.Deși DiscoverEU încurajează călătoriile cu trenul, sunt disponibile măsuri speciale pentru tinerii din regiunile ultraperiferice, teritoriile de peste mări, zonele îndepărtate și insule.Din 2018, peste 1,3 milioane de candidați au solicitat aproape 320. 000 de permise de călătorie disponibile.Grupul de Facebook DiscoverEU, unde tinerii se pot conecta și pot face schimb de experiențe și sfaturi, are în prezent peste 100.000 de membri. Ascultați rubrica ”Eurocronica”, cu Ovidiu Nahoi, în fiecare zi, de luni până vineri, de la 8.45 și în reluare duminica, de la 15.00, numai la RFI România
Descoperă în acest episod fascinant cum experiențele din copilărie modelează sănătatea noastră mentală și fizică pe termen lung. Alături de Adi Dinu, psiholog și trainer în echipa Mind Architect, analizăm efectele traumatice ale experiențelor adverse din copilărie (ACEs) și cum acestea pot fi contrabalansate de experiențele pozitive (PCEs). Discutăm împreună studii care explorează legătura dintre adversitate și dezvoltarea cerebrală, descoperind cum un mediu de susținere și conectare poate transforma traumele copilăriei în puncte forte ale maturității. Ne uităm în profunzime la importanța relațiilor sănătoase timpurii și a sprijinului comunitar în construirea rezilienței emoționale, oferind perspective actuale despre ce contează cu adevărat în creșterea și dezvoltarea noilor născuți.

Yuna asked.Ja: 「秘密だよ、由奈。まずはトリイを通り抜けよう」と誠が答えた。En: "That's a secret, Yuna. Let's go through the torii gates first," Makoto replied.Ja: 晴人は少し緊張した表情で、「ここは歴史が深い場所だから、慎重にね」と言った。En: With a slightly nervous expression, Haruto said, "This place is rich in history, so let's be careful."Ja: トリイの赤い柱の間を歩いていると、誠はふと、一つの柱の後ろに怪しい紙が貼られているのを見つけた。En: As they walked between the red pillars of the torii gates, Makoto suddenly noticed a suspicious piece of paper stuck behind one of the pillars.Ja: 「ここに何かあるよ!」誠が興奮気味に叫んだ。En: "There's something here!" Makoto shouted excitedly.Ja: 由奈は紙を見ると、「これ、何だろう?もしかして、幽霊のメッセージかも」と言った。En: Yuna looked at the paper and said, "What could this be? Maybe it's a ghost's message."Ja: 誠は少し笑って、「そんなの、ただの古い紙じゃないか?」と答えたが、心の中では興味津々だった。En: Makoto laughed a little and replied, "It's probably just an old piece of paper," but deep down he was very interested.Ja: 晴人は紙を慎重に触り、「これは古文書の一部だ。昔の神社の記録かも」と言った。En: Haruto carefully touched the paper and said, "This is part of an ancient document. It could be a record from the old shrine."Ja: 夜になり、誠は皆に内緒で紙の謎を解こうと決めた。En: That night, Makoto decided to solve the mystery of the paper without telling anyone.Ja: その夕方、祭りの準備が進む中、誠は一人で神社に戻った。En: As preparations for the evening festival continued, he returned alone to the shrine.Ja: しかし由奈は茂みの中から誠を追って、「何か隠してるでしょ?」と問い詰めた。En: However, Yuna followed him from the bushes and confronted him, "You're hiding something, aren't you?"Ja: そこに、ハラハラした様子の晴人も現れた。En: Haruto also appeared, looking anxious.Ja: 「全部話すよ。紙のメッセージを調べてみたいんだ」と誠は白状した。En: "I'll tell you everything. I want to investigate the message on this paper," Makoto confessed.Ja: 三人は紙を持って神社の奥へ進んだ。En: The three of them took the paper and headed deeper into the shrine.Ja: 由奈はお守りを握りしめて、「守ってください」と祈った。En: Grasping a protective charm, Yuna prayed, "Please protect us."Ja: 深い森の中、古い祠の前で、紙の文字が光り始めた。En: In the deep forest, in front of an ancient shrine, the writing on the paper began to glow.Ja: ハルートは震える手で古い書物を開き、「これは代々の神職が隠した秘密の一つだ」と読んだ。En: With trembling hands, Haruto opened an old book and read, "This is one of the secrets hidden by generations of shrine priests."Ja: 「この神社には、古い財宝があると言われている。でも、触れるのは神聖を犯すことになる」とハルートは言った。En: "It is said there is an ancient treasure in this shrine. But to touch it would be to desecrate the sacred," Haruto said.Ja: 由奈は驚いて、「でも、それを知ること自体が大切じゃない?」と反論した。En: Yuna, surprised, countered, "But isn't simply knowing about it important?"Ja: 誠は二人を見つめ、「これを知ることで、もっと多くの人がこの神社を大事にするかもしれない」と言った。En: Makoto looked at the two of them and said, "By knowing this, more people might come to cherish this shrine."Ja: 三人は協力して隠された財宝を見つけ、神社に捧げました。En: The three worked together and found the hidden treasure, which they offered to the shrine.Ja: それは、昔の奉納品で、神社の歴史を語る重要なものだった。En: It turned out to be old offerings, significant to the shrine's history.Ja: 誠は由奈に感謝し、「君の不思議な力がなければ、見つからなかったかも」と言った。En: Makoto thanked Yuna, saying, "If it weren't for your mysterious ability, we might not have found it."Ja: 由奈も笑顔で、「科学と霊魂は協力できるわね」と答えました。En: Yuna smiled and replied, "Science and spirits can cooperate, can't they?"Ja: 晴人も自信を持って、「歴史と伝統を守るために、知識と信仰が必要だね」と信念を新たにしました。En: Haruto, now more confident, concluded, "Knowledge and faith are necessary to protect history and tradition."Ja: 夏の夜、三人は祭りの光に包まれながら、さらなる冒険を誓いました。En: On that summer night, under the festival lights, the three friends vowed to embark on more adventures.Ja: 彼らの絆は、以前よりも強く、深くなっていました。En: Their bond had grown stronger and deeper than ever before.

Nicu Ștefănuță a fost ales în funcția de vicepreședinte al Parlamentului European, după ce a reușit să câștige alegerile europarlamentare din 9 iunie ca independent. El este de asemenea vicepreședinte al grupului Verzilor din PE. Nicu Ștefănuță vorbește în interviul acordat RFI despre importanța funcției de vicepreședinte al Parlamentului European.El se referă de asemenea la pericolul extremismului și vorbește despre prezența lui Viktor Orban la Școala de Vară de la Tușnad.Nicu Ștefănuță critică pe de altă parte promisiunile populiste ale partidului AUR privind locuințele de 35.000 de euro: ”După mine, este țeapă ceea ce se întâmplă acolo, țeapă, pur și simplu, însă problema pe piață rămâne, pentru că tinerii mai ales sunt afectați de criza locuințelor, nu-și mai permit case, creditele sunt la un maxim istoric. Deci cumva, ei au furat tema noastră, dar soluțiile sunt de tip AUR”.Vicepreședintele PE atinge în interviul acordat RFI și problema urșilor din România. El critică legea care dublează cota de recoltare: ”Contravine Directivei Habitatelor (...), înseamnă că urmează o procedură de infringement, în general (...). Este o soluție cu parul, care nu va rezolva decât un simptom pe termen scurt”.

Cine sunt cei care dau primele rezultate de la alegeri. Ce greutate mai au exit-poll-urile de la ora 22:00 (Europa Liberă) - Cât de vulnerabilă e România în fața spionilor ruși. Expert în securitate: „Au reușit să învețe lucruri noi și să își schimbe strategiile” (Adevărul) Mergeţi la vot! În următorii cinci ani ani România îşi va desena infrastructura şi dezvoltarea pentru următoarele decenii. Nu-i lăsaţi pe alţii să decidă cine va face acest desen (Ziarul Financiar)Votul de duminică are o importanţă mai mare decât în trecut pentru că următorii patru-cinci ani vor fi decisivi pentru felul cum va arăta România deceniilor care vin, atrage atenția jurnalistul Sorin Pâslaru, redactor șef ZF. Pe plan intern va fi un vârf al investiţiilor în infrastructura de transport, medicală şi de educaţie care va determina o accelerare a investiţiilor private şi a felului cum arată şi funcţionează oraşele şi comunele. Este o fereastră de oportunitate istorică, pentru că se suprapun banii din PNNR cu cei din fonduri europene structurale, deci 80 mld. euro.Iar pe plan extern suntem într-un moment de răscruce pentru că în următorii ani, în funcţie de evoluţia conflictului de la est, va fi o reaşezare strategică şi traseul viitor al României va fi definit de această reaşezare. Se vor face jocurile, cum se spune. Plus admiterea în OECD, preconizată pentru 2026, care va aşeza economia pe un alt nivel de complexitate.În acest moment sunt în licitaţie obiective de infrastructură de 20 mld. euro. Sunt finanţări necesare pentru autostrăzi sau renovări de spitale, dar se aruncă şi cu banii pe stadioane care deja stau goale sau piste de biciclete în comune unde ar fi mai bune parcuri industriale.Iar alegerile pentru Parlamentul European vor fi determinante în 2024 pentru alegerea care va trebui făcută - un nou val al integrării, prin fuziuni bancare, bursiere, industriale şi crearea unui val investiţional care să scoată UE din mediocritatea creşterii din ultimii ani sau va triumfa perspectiva pesimistă, individuală? Va fi un examen greu pentru Bruxelles. Oricum ar fi, decizia ne aparţine. Cine sunt cei care dau primele rezultate de la alegeri. Ce greutate mai au exit-poll-urile de la ora 22:00 (Europa Liberă)Pentru alegerile de duminică, 9 iunie, Biroul Electoral Central a acreditat trei institute care pot face sondaje de opinie la ieşirea de la urne la nivel naţional: Centrul de Sociologie Urbană şi Regională (CURS), Grupul de Studii Socio-Comportamentale Avangarde şi Sodiso Research SRL.Vor fi organizate trei exit-poll-uri la nivel național. Pe lângă acestea, vor fi făcute și sondaje locale, la Râmnicu Sărat, la Luduşul de Mureş și unul pe întreg județul Mureș.Centrul de Sociologie Urbană și Regională CURS S.R.L. este unul dintre institutele acreditate de Biroul Electoral Central pentru a face sondaje la ieșirea de la urne (exit-poll).Compania, fondată în 1996, este deținută în proporție de 100% de jurnalistul Iosif Buble. Institutul a dat rezultatele la multe dintre scrutinele din ultimii 25 de ani.Grupul de Studii Socio-Comportamentale Avangarde SRL este cea de-a doua casă de sondare a opiniei publice care va face duminică un exit-poll. El aparține în proporție de 100% sociologului Marius Pieleanu.Cea de-a treia casă de sondare este necunoscută pe piața măsurătorilor intenției de vot.Sodiso Research SRL este deținută de Gheorghe Barna, C&P Studio, Asociația Analiștilor în Politici Publice și Kvantum Research.Asociația Analiștilor în Politici Publice este un ONG înființat pentru a explica maghiarilor cum să se comporte la recensământul populației în 2021. Toate firmele și asociațiile au sediul la aceeași adresă din Cluj Napoca.Europa Liberă reamintește că nu de puține ori, în ultimii ani, institutele de sondare a opiniei publice din România au greșit în previziunile lor privind rezultatele alegerilor, iar rezultatele măsurătorilor la urne au diferit cu câteva procente față de rezultatul oficial al alegerilor. De multe ori, în favoarea partidului care comandase cercetarea. Cât de vulnerabilă e România în fața spionilor ruși. Expert în securitate: „Au reușit să învețe lucruri noi și să își schimbe strategiile” (Adevărul)Scandalul uriaș din Republica Moldova, unde chiar fostul șef al Statului Major, Igor Gorgan, a fost deconspirat ca fiind spion rus ridică semne serioase de întrebare privind capacitatea serviciilor occidentale de contraspionaj de a contracara acțiunile Moscovei. Într-un interviu pentru „Adevărul”, expertul în securitate Marius Ghincea explică acest caz, dar lansează un avertisment de luat în calcul pentru România.„Sunt sigur că există astfel de informatori și în România. De altfel, o persoană a fost reținută zilele trecute în România pentru spionaj în favoarea Rusiei”, amintește Ghincea.El spune că Federația Rusă și-a intensificat activițiile de spionaj în România și în alte state NATO, precum și în țări care interesează direct Moscova, așa cum este Republica Moldova.„Cu siguranță vorbim de o intensificare a activităților de spionaj atât ale Rusiei împotriva aliaților Ucrainei cât și a Occidentului împotriva Rusiei. De altfel, acțiunile de sabotaj ale Rusiei în Occident au devenit o preocupare crescută, dezbătută public”, adaugă el.Marius Ghincea a explicat și cum pot fi contracarați spionii ruși care operează în România: „Contracararea unor astfel de acțiuni se realizează prin intermediul contraspionajului și printr-un control atent la accesul la informații clasificate.”
