Posto sam od nedelje na godisnjem do kraja meseca evo najave iako je trka tek za dve nedelje. Imola, nekad popriste trka za VN San Marina, vratila se na kalendar svetskog sampionata pod firmom regionalnog granprija zahvaljujuci pandemiji Covid-19 pre dve godine. Prosle godine upravo ovde su ispaljeni prvi plotuni u "ratu" Hamiltona, Ferstapena, Mercedesa i Red Bula - prve naznake onoga sto smo gledali kako degenerise u obostrane ekstreme nesportskog ponasanja kako na stazi tako i van nje, uz kulminaciju na VN Abu Dabija kad je sampion rukopolozen odlukom direkcije trke. I sada smo opet na istom mestu - ali stvari ne mogu biti vise drugacije: novi covek na celu FIA, nove strukture u direkciji trke, novi koncept aerodinamicke filozofije bolida, nova lica na podijumu - i to u crvenim kombinezonima, sto garantuje ludnicu na tribinama u Italiji. Utisak je da su novi bolidi pun pogodak. Sudeci po trci u Melburnu gde je prethodnih sezona norma bila jednocifren broj preticanja za poziciju na stazi tokom cele trke a ove godine smo imali blizu 40, vrlo je moguce da cemo i u Imoli inace ne bas poznatoj kao najlaksoj za preticanje gledati solidnu trku. Kao glavni favorit u ovoj novoj eri F1 izdvojio se Ferari koji je em brz em pouzdan. Jedini koji im pariraju po brzini su Red Bulovci ali njihovi bolidi deluju stravicno ranjivo - 3 odustajanja na 3 trke. Donedavno neprikosnoveni Mercedes je u problemima, nisu u stanju da savladaju poskakivanje bolida na pravcima sto ih tera da voze kompromisne setape, ali i tako su dovoljno dobri da pokupe sve mrvice koje im ostave vodeci - pa su tako trenutno drugoplasirani u oba sampionata. Iza njih je totalno ludilo, bukvalno pet timova je u igri za lidera "druge lige". Za fenjer se bore Vilijams i Aston Martin. Ovo ce biti prvi "sprint" vikend ove sezone. Format je izmenjen, u smislu da se to vise ne zove "sprint kvalifikacije" nego samo "sprint", da se pol pripisuje onome ko ga osvoji u petak a sada se dodeljuje i vise bodova - umesto prva tri, sada ce prvih osam dobiti bodove po semi 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1. Pireli donosi smese C2-C3-C4. Satnica vikenda ovde: https://www.formula1.com/en/racing/2022/EmiliaRomagna.html

miele, herman miller, jabučica... samo široko brat moj

Zasad furam japanca. Die beste. Ali, sva je prilika da ce se porodica uvecati za jos jednog clana krajem godine tako da ce morati nesto vece 😄

два дня. Uvredljive generalizacije, dizanje tenzija, malo nek se smire strasti.

Lepo bi bilo da ova inicijativa preraste u tradiciju.

čestitamo čestitamo!

E, hvala Bogu da i ti nesto ubodes - nek` je sa srecom.

evo ga i tekst koji sam svojevremeno citala:

Privatni torrent trackeri za serije, a vecina prevoda ima na titlovi.net. Slazem se za skandinavsku produkciju, ja sam ih odgledao poprilicno. Sent from my Mi 9T using Tapatalk

Toto je suvlasnik u tri F1 ekipe. Glavni je trgovac motorima, vozačima, inženjerima... Andretti je prvo želeo Ferarieve motore, ali je Toto to blokirao da ne bi bilo 4-4 pa je zato napravljen usmeni dogovor sa Rendžom. Takvi zovu direktora trke na večeru. U svakom drugom vrhunskom sportu da pozoveš sudiju pred meč na večeru sledi noga u dupe obojici. Mesi je po meni jako loše radio svoj posao prošle godine. Ono na poslednjoj trci je bila potpuna svinjarija koja pre svega nije po pravilima. Zato je uleteo neko drugi. Kažu da su gruvale Spajsice iz sobe celu noć...

Eh.. Toto Volf je juce otkrio da je dan pred pocetak trkackog vikenda bio na rucku sa Masijem i tada je pokušao da mu objasni da mora da prihvati kritike i da ce mu to pomoci da bude bolji direktor trke.. "jos tada je video da je to covek koji je imun na sve dobronamerne povratne informacije i imun na preuzimanje odgovornosti".. Meni je nejasno sta koji q direktor trke ima da trazi na rucku 1 na 1 sa sefom tima koji se bori za titulu dan pred pocetka odlučujućeg vikenda??

Ma zabole i mene za listu, samo sam ukazao da su kriterijumi krajnje labavi

ma mene zabole za listu, samo sam hteo da odgovorim na tvoje pitanje.

Rak je tricky, hirovit, ima mnoga lica i nalicja. Nepredvidljiv je. Zna da se podlo primiri i ostavi lazni utisak mira, a onda iz nebuha posalje svoje satelite da naprave stetu na nekom drugom mestu, pre nego sto te hinjski sacekaju iza coska i stave te pred svrsen cin. Taj maligni party breaker. Opasan igrac. Koji vremenom postaje saigrac sa kojim se treba nekako nositi i ziveti sa njim, dok god. Sto se kaze, familiju ne biramo ali barem mozemo da je eskiviramo. Ovog uljeza ne. Uvek visi u vazduhu. Uvek znak pitanja. Da li se, kako vreme protice, udaljavamo od njegove opasnosti ili se priblizavamo isteku roka trajanja? Zato, ne treba mu dati da preuzme kontrolu nad onim sto je pod nasom jurisdikcijom, tj. nasom kontrolom i odlukom da zivimo sustinski u trenucima koje imamo i koje samo mi mozemo da kreiramo. On jeste opasan po zivot ali nije veci od (sustinskog) Zivota. Ko ga sljivi, njega ce Znanje da prevesla kad li tad li. Danas je World Cancer Day.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/tennis/2022/04/14/revealed-secret-society-tennis-umpires-living-rule-fear-power/ Revealed: 'Secret society' of tennis umpires living under reign of fear, power abuses and sexual favours Exclusive: Telegraph investigation has exposed allegations of exploitation going on for decades which have been kept secret BySimon Briggs, 14 April 2022 Tennis umpires are living under a “rule of fear” and are at risk of predatory sexual advances according to leading figures within the sport, who have called for urgent reform to prevent the exploitation of young officials. A Telegraph investigation into the case of Soeren Friemel – the ITF head of officiating who resigned last month after making “inappropriate comments and invitations” to a younger umpire – has revealed previous instances of similar behaviour. We found that: Power abuses of this kind have been known to tennis authorities for at least 15 years Non-disclosure agreements have been employed to keep such cases secret “Using your body” – being open to sexual advances – has long been considered a fast track for aspiring umpires A small number of people have disproportionate influence over umpiring appointments, creating networks of patronage and the potential for exploitation People are afraid to speak out, as whistleblowers tend to be ostracised The investigation also found that tennis’s authorities, including the International Tennis Federation, have kept a lid on controversies by banning umpires from any interaction with media. In the words of Richard Ings – a former head of officiating at the ATP Tour – “This rule was designed to prevent discussion of particular instances within matches. It was never designed to protect the sport from embarrassment. But that’s what it has become.” Friemel’s resignation took place in the middle of the most turbulent period for player-umpire relations since John McEnroe was at his peak. In the first major event of 2022 – January’s Australian Open – Canada’s Denis Shapovalov earned an US$8,000 fine for yelling “You guys are all corrupt” at chair umpire Carlos Bernardes. 'We have to rip the system up' Friemel’s case drew worldwide interest when it was first reported by the Telegraph on Feb 3. A 50-year-old German, Friemel was suspended for 12 months in relation to four incidents involving the same umpire between 2011 and 2015. According to an ITF spokesperson, “The issue was the situation of power imbalance.” Now the Telegraph can reveal that similar allegations had previously been made against another leading tennis official, who cannot be named for legal reasons. This second case is widely known within the officiating world but has never been brought to public notice, because of the non-disclosure agreements used in what one insider called “a compromise departure”. Other former officials have told the Telegraph that abuses of various kinds have been going on in secret for decades. Networks of patronage develop because power is concentrated in the hands of a small number of individuals. Young officials have every reason to want to curry favour with their superiors. “In my time, it was a well-known fast-track for your career if you were open to using your body to promote your career,” said Martin Wikstrom, a Swede who was a chair umpire in the early 2000s, before becoming a successful business executive. “When you look at some of the officials that came through – let's say within 10 years – there was no way that they would have made it, if the decision was purely based on their competence.” Friemel’s suspension is unusual in that it emerged into the public domain, unlike previous scandals. Umpiring’s culture of silence starts with the Code of Conduct signed by all officials, stating that they “shall not, at any time, participate in any media interviews or meetings with journalists … without the approval of the supervisor/referee”. In practice, this approval is rarely given. And without any means for the younger, less experienced officials to have their voices heard, they become vulnerable to exploitation. “Officials are afraid to speak,” said Richard Ings, who was the ATP’s head of officiating from 2001 to 2005, as well as the world’s highest-ranked chair umpire in the late 1990s. “If they do tell a reporter about anything that is happening backstage, even anonymously, their bosses will go hunting for who gave that information. If they find who spoke out, or maybe just have suspicions, they don’t even have to bring a Code of Conduct charge. They can simply not select that person for the next job. People quickly get the message and there is a wall of silence that develops.” 'Your face needs to fit' “It’s a boys’ club,” said one silver-badge umpire. “They manage the marks to keep people in certain positions. The organisations know who they want and then the end-of-year meeting is a negotiation, an exchange. ‘If you let us have our person, we’ll let you have yours.’ They arrange the grades they want, pump them up for the favoured ones, penalise others by ignoring the good things. “Supervisors and judges have the flexibility to write up the reports in any way they want. It’s not transparent. It’s not neutral. Gold badge umpires” – of whom there are 33 – “come in 50 shades of gold. Some have half the draw on their ‘No List’, while others can handle all-comers. [The ‘No List’ comprises the players whose matches an umpire is kept away from, because of previous run-ins.]” According to another official, the lack of clarity around appointments allows networks of patronage to develop. “Nowadays, for an umpire to make a good career or to be promoted, it is not enough to be good in the chair. Your face needs to fit as well. If you make the right connections, or go to the right weddings, your career will jump up in front of people who are much better than you, and you’ll keep going even if you make very bad mistakes on live worldwide TV.” A better model? Dent’s views on this last question are not shared by all. The senior tennis administrator – who preferred to remain anonymous – emphasised the need for more separation between officials and players. “When the tours are reliant on good relations with the players, and officials are ruling on their matches, that’s quite tough,” the administrator said. “There’s a conflict of interest. An independent body is a very wise idea. The Friemel case has to be a wake-up call.” For those who feel excluded or exploited by the system, a continuity candidate – meaning someone who is already high up in the industry – would be a further indication that nothing will change. They point at those who have been at the top of officiating for decades and suggest that their very silence is a kind of complicity. Some believe that Friemel himself could yet return to frontline officiating, perhaps even stepping back into his other former position as referee of the US Open. This would not be a widely popular outcome, however. There are many who see his ITF resignation as an opportunity to rethink the whole area. pre 5-6 godina je jedan sudija dobio otkaz jer je ukazao na sve ovo (citala tekst koji je neki tip napisao, cini mi se da ga je intervjuisao posle svega). zaboravila sam ime sudije, bio je onizi, procelav i cini mi se nekog arapskog ili bliskoistocnog porekla. tip je opisao situacije kojima je prisustvovao kada je onaj bradati francuski sudija (Cedric Mourier) onako bahato i bezobrazno komentarisao neke zenske sudije i slicno (ovoliko se secam, tekst je bio poduzi, s mnogo specificnih opisa situacija). nasla sam koji je bivsi sudija u pitanju: Egipcanin Magdi Somat.
