Last 2 nights I’ve been working.
Well what can I say about it.
It was not easy, especially first night because your day is not 24 hour but 36 hours. You understand how it feels to be a zombie. But next night was a little bit better, and hopefully this night will be much more better and faster.
I’m working at “Bread and Butter” Messe. and it is so funny when you after night without sleep, just go somewhere and already in the morning people, “fashion” people start to come, and they look good, beautiful cloth and smell good, but you are just opposite. Well I do not why but it was funny))
I hope that I’ll not forget to print out and hand over my blog tomorrow).
Going to the end. 22/06/2009

I missed again one deadline. Sorry God!!!
What can I say about my experience of writing a blog?
Well frankly speaking it was not boring, it was even exiting! The best moments of course is when someone comment on your blog)) You understand me. Also I found interesting or fascinating is just when you share your thoughts, well it is like writing a dairy, after posting some crazy or kvazy crazy thought you just a human being again)))
Wrote a post and forgot about it, let other people try to understand what you’ve tried to say there.
I would like to mention also, that this our assignment helped me and in my professional sphere too: because before I was a bit far away from it, it was not like that I haven’t used Internet at all, but blogosphere never. But now I understand that actually I was a man from a forest or if ,I am not mistaken, “hölzkopf” in German. Because, now I am going to say what you already know, Internet is a part of daily life of more and more people from all over the world.
And this part is specific because … you know why, and knowledge is power and knowledge about thing that is used by billions people on the planet is super power AHHAHAH!
Ok in a few days I will make my last blog entry. at least in June)

Today My Dear friends
I felt what people loving their countries usually feel when something is not OK with their motherland. (Bad beginning)
I went to the Iran’s embassy and I saw how about 300 hundred people protest against the election’s falsification which probably occured on last election, a few days ago.
Well, what can I say about it, I only can say that it is hard but I try to understand these people who have to live in emigration, far away from their homeland. And they would like to return to home but they will have to wait, wait and wait until something happens what can change the power, government in Iran.
Let’s just sympathize them.

Conventional wisdom 03/06/2009

I’m on my half way to finish reading “Freakonomics” by Steven D. Levitt. recommended by Dr. Pedussel Wu
Despite the fact that I’ve been already reading this book since March only now I realized that the book is actually “cool”. It made me again think about What is really truth and what is just conventional truth (conventional wisdom), or in other words it is not truth but it is either logically suit to the situation or (and) most of the people believe in it.
There is one example in this book about dramatical drop of the criminal level in the US during ear
ly 90th. And it was so that, of course that topic was vastly discussed by the public, no one mentioned the real reason. You want to know what was the reason – read the book.
Second very interesting fact or a story was about the power of information, briefly speaking how EXPERTS use their information cheating their clients, and how we are dependent on these kinds of experts, and often rely on them more than we rely on our own feelings.
Well that was in the first half of the book (and much more), lets see what next…
I would be kindly appreciated if you my dear readers leave you comments, although I understand that it is difficult to leave comments, but maybe writing a comment you will open and find something inside your brain, because it happens often that before you wrote something, you didn’t really know or understand you opinion about a topic.
FREAKONOMICS blog on NYtimes I took this book from FU library.

Hello again,
WHAT A DISASTER!!!
yesterday looking through the Forbes list of Worlds richest billioners I could not find my name!!!
But I found another name Carl Icahn, he is 43d, well not bad. But what is interesting about this man is the articles he posted on his blog: Corporate Democracy is a Myth and About CEOs – Anti Darwinian Metaphor – Survival of the Unfittest. I found these two posts pretty interesting because of … just a view from the insider is interesting to know and plus how really the highest executive bodies are working, well just read and share your feeling and thoughts. I’m sure it worth the time you spend on.
Emotional Intelligence 16/05/2009

A few days ago I finished one very interesting and helpful book called “Emotional Intelligence” by Daniel Goleman.
Dr.Smith has recommend me this book.
Why did I find the book interesting?
Well, frankly speaking at the beginning it is not that interesting, because at the beginning it is almost all about medicine aspects of the brain, how it works and … but than starts fascinating part. Briefly the author is trying to show us that the Emotional intelligence plays much bigger and more significant role in our lifes. Every day’s actions done by human been could be directly or indirectly influenced by its experience gained during first years of its life.
Why helpful?
Maybe it is stupid example and too simplified example but anyway I use it. Just imagine that your child or someone else child does something so bad that you are almost ready to burst into scream and fury, but next second you understand that it is just a child and it just does not do it meaningly or in other words child does not recognize that what it is doing is bad.
2nd step: imagine not a child but an adult doing something stupid or saying stupid or reacting stupid. And in this case you are likely to blame this person BUT an adult can do what he is doing THE SAME way, I mean not meaningly. It is hard to believe and hard to assume that but it is so. And being aware of it you may change your mind and no longer screaming I live in the world full of idiots, instead of it just try to understand how you can change this person what you can expect from him or how you can influence him.
And influence here I think is crucial, because as managers we will have to work with different types of people, and it may happen that you just cannot understand the person, in this case some ideas from this book can be helpful for you.
My friends, I recommend you to read this book, because I want you to be as good in emotional intelligence as I am after I read it. )
P.S. You can find the german version of the book in our library, and english in Frei University (Wirtschaftwissenschaft bibliothek).
Swedish Pirate Party Heading for EU Parliament 04/05/2009
Posted by maratello in Might be interesting.Tags: Pirate Party

During Laura and mine presentation I’ve mentioned the Pirate Bay party. If someone is interested that is what Icould find!
A poll carried out by a major Swedish newspaper predicts that the Pirate Party will grab around 5.1% of the votes in the upcoming European Union elections. This means that the movement, which has gathered huge momentum due to the Pirate Bay ‘guilty’ verdict, will get a seat in the EU Parliament.
Support for the Swedish Pirate Party really began to surge with the introduction of the IPRED anti-piracy legislation. Its membership already surpassed that of the Green Party, with more than half of men under 30 reportedly considering voting for them in the 2009 European Parliament elections.
Then a guilty verdict was handed down in the Pirate Bay trial – an absolute gift for the Pirate Party, whose ranks swelled at an unprecedented rate. It now sits at just over 41,750 members (latest stats here) and at the current growth rate the party will be Sweden’s third largest in membership before the weekend.
Now a new poll conducted by Swedish newspaper DN.se predicts that the Pirate Party will get 5.1% of all votes in the upcoming EU elections this June – enough to guarantee a seat in the European Parliament. The poll further shows that the party is the second largest party among younger voters in the age group 18-30.
“This poll confirms our recent phenomenal growth in support, and says there will be pirates in Brussels after this election,” Pirate Party Leader Rick Falkvinge told TorrentFreak. “Scoring like this in a poll will further enhance support for the party. While there’s still much work to be done, we’re on the home stretch and have the goal in plain sight. June 7 is election day. On the morning of June 8, we’ll know.”
“In January of 2006, we set sail for new civil liberties land by bypassing today’s politicians and talking directly to voting citizens — that is, with the goal of kicking some of today’s politicians out of office. It appears we’ve just heard the first LAND AHOY! from the watch,” Falkvinge added.
When the Swedish Pirate Party was founded three years ago, the majority of the mainstream press viewed them with skepticism, with some simply laughing them away. Times have changed though. The Pirate Party is now a serious competitor for the established parties in Sweden, and on its way to conquer Europe.

Why do we study business? 03/05/2009
Posted by maratello in Thoughts.Tags: business, studies

Yesterday went to Dresden. Impressed!!!
It is amazing how so many old buildings could be saved?
But I’m not going to talk about Dresden or travelling or architecture today.
My question today is Why do we study business?, I don’t want to ask why do people study business because all answers will be nothing but general replies. Why do we study business? And what is to study business, whether business is more about accounting and finance, in other words just sitting and counting coins or more about creation.
I mean that, of course, someone go to university in order to after graduating sit in a chair and do every day duties as well as on other jobs , all is clear with them. But what about another part I think even the smallest part of students, why do they study business or management, could it be that pushing forward by ambitions they decided that management will be the easiest way to get and implement what they want to get or implement.
(sometimes it is so difficult to express what you really think about))… are the second group want to be responsible not just for their small worlds, for their part of chain and their dogs, but be responsible for everything for every wins and espesially for every falls?
Also very interesting when I hear from people that they are not studying business because of money but they just want to love their work and enjoy what they are doing,
WHAT DOES IT MEAN to enjoy your work? In our case enjoying is when you are satisfyed by a process of a work and by results. Result is f.e. when you sell more than your competitor or when share price is rising, in other words, PROFIT IS MAXIMIZED. Well it means that you work for Money’s sake. You can sake that it is just Sophism. But that is also no good when you deceive yourselves.
Please I’m glad to receive your comments, for me it is interesting what you think about it!
