 <description>&lt;div style=&quot;width: 75px&quot; class=&quot;image-attach-teaser&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/main/blog/traistariu/fan-club-traistariu-contact-0722-410-597&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.meetuon.com/main/files/images/mihai traistariu-02_1.thumbnail.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot;  class=&quot;image thumbnail&quot; width=&quot;75&quot; height=&quot;100&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;!-- google_ad_section_start --&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In urma succesului culminant cu Tornero, Mihai Traistariu s-a impus imediat in peisajul muzical atat din Romania cat si din strainatate. A inceput sa cante la pian de la 7 ani, sub indrumarea parintilor mai exact, o data cu intrarea la scoala, cand acestia i-au cumparat un pian alb. Parintii lui, tatal pictor, iar mama medic, si-au dorit ca Mihai sa urmeze cursuri de muzica si pictura. Norocul, insa, nu i-a suras si a luat drumul medicinei. Are diploma de profesor de matematica obtinuta la Iasi, dar n-a profesat niciodata. A inceput sa cante la Casa Studentilor din Iasi si, incet-incet, sa castige concursuri prin tara. In anul al treilea de facultate ajunsese deja la Festivalul de la Mamaia, unde a obtinut premiul al doilea la interpretare, dupa care a urmat Valahia.   Dupa numai 2 luni a participat la primul lui festival national: &quot;Florentin Delmar&quot; de la Focsani. A cantat 2 cantece: &quot;Say something&quot; a lui Laurentiu Cazan si &quot;Viata mea&quot;, compusa de Romeo Cosma. A ridicat sala in picioare si juriul, avandu-l ca presedinte pe Horia Moculescu, i-a acordat premiul al 2-lea. Era prima urcare pe scena si, in acelasi timp, un mare succes. A castigat peste 2.500.000 euro in urma participarii in cadrul diverselor spectacole astfel si-a deschis o firma  de taxiuri in Constanta si o Casa de Moda in Bucuresti. Jumatate din Europa a auzit deja de numele lui, datorita piesei &quot;Tornero&quot;. Urmatorul pas pe care l-a facut a fost acela de a se inscrie la festivalul &quot;New Wave&quot; din Letonia, unde s-a calificat primul pentru finala din iulie, cu punctaj maxim. O pozitie buna obtinuta in finala acestui concurs ii va putea aduce lui Mihai un nou public, acela al tarilor ex-sovietice si, deci, voturi mai numeroase la Eurovisionul din 2008. Marele vis al lui Traistariu este acela de a se lansa peste Ocean, in Statele Unite. Interesant este insa ca nu s-a dus sa bata la usa niciunui impresar de acolo, care sa-l sprijine intr-un &quot;vis american&quot;, ci s-a intamplat tocmai invers. A castigat finala Eurovision pe Romania, dupa 6 ani de incercari consecutive, soldate cu locurile 2,3,4,3,3,1. A fost contactat imediat de Roton si a semnat astfel contract pe 3 ani cu cea mai bine cotata Casa de discuri din Romania, devenind astfel coleg cu crema muzicii romanesti: Morandi, Akcent, Iris, Holograf, Parazitii, Alexandra Ungureanu si Crash, Anda Adam, Corina, Cream, Mandinga, Pepe etc. Mihai Traistariu este constient de valoarea pe care o are si tocmai de aceea participa la cat mai multe manifestari culturale. Raspunde intotdeauna prezent pentru recitaluri in Romania dar si in strainatate, si este permanent invitat la spectacole, lansari, campanii electorale, petreceri diverse, manifestari orasenesti, nunti, botezuri si revelioane.

&lt;!-- google_ad_section_start --&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Daca vorbim despre Fuego, avem in fata expresia unuia din cei mai iubiti artisti contemporani.&lt;br /&gt;
Pe numele lui adevarat, Paul Surugiu, si-a ales din dictionarul spaniol-roman vreo 50 de cuvinte, din care el a ales cu ochii inchisi unul - s-a nimenrit sa fie &quot;Fuego&quot;. Desi ar fi dorit sa urmeze Teologia, Fuego a absolvit Facultatea de Teatru din cadrul Universitatii Ecologice. Insa, in paralel cu aceste studii, in particular, Fuego a urmat cursuri de canto. Colaboreaza cu Marius Teicu-compozitor si profesor, Carmen Aldea-Vlad-textier, obtinand trofeul de cristal la festivalul &quot;Slagarul de aur&quot; de la Minsk si impresionand intreaga presa romaneasca si internationala. De asemenea a luat si premiul pentru cel mai bun album de colinde al anului, &quot;Spre rai&quot;. Are o activitate artistica prestigioasa fiind omniprezent pe posturile de Radio si Televiziune.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Why Don&#039;t YOU Do Something?</title>

 <description>&lt;!-- google_ad_section_start --&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt; color: black; font-family: Arial&quot;&gt;This is dedicated to the woman who had the audacity to be outraged at Oprah for building a girls school in South Africa.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt; color: black; font-family: Arial&quot;&gt;No this woman is not some disenfranchised small fry venting her pent up frustrations. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt; color: black; font-family: Arial&quot;&gt;It&amp;#39;s pretty sad because this woman has relative power. She is a representative of one of New York city&amp;#39;s biggest newspapers.  &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt; color: black; font-family: Arial&quot;&gt;It&amp;#39;s true there&amp;#39;s nothing worse than a powerful influential woman in this patriachichal society. The only thing worse is if that woman happens to be black, especially in a racist world that conspires to paint an ugly picture of everything that is Black. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Experience Brighton in England</title>
 <link>http://www.meetuon.com/main/blog/noel/experience-brighton-in-england</link>
 <description>&lt;!-- google_ad_section_start --&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you&amp;#39;re thinking about vacationing with a little English flair, I suggest Brighton, known by many as England&amp;#39;s favourite city by the sea. Why Brighton? How do royal palaces, Victorian Piers and world-class Regency architecture strike you? These are just a few of the numerous other attractions that drawn international visitors yearly. Brighton is equally known for its breathtaking beachfront, the maze-like Lanes area, the reknowned Royal Pavilion palace, and the Brighton Festival, the largest mixed arts festival in England. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ll break down these facets for you in a little more detail.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Rich Rapper Music Service: Underground Hip Hop Savior, or Underground Rap Messiah?</title>
 <link>http://www.meetuon.com/main/blog/adam-voss/rich-rapper-music-service-underground-hip-hop-savior-or-underground-rap-messiah</link>
 <description>&lt;!-- google_ad_section_start --&gt;
&lt;p&gt;by: &lt;font color=&quot;#990000&quot;&gt;Hilary Mujikwa&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table border=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;8&quot; align=&quot;right&quot;&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;hft-lines&quot;&gt;You’ve probably heard many people say “Hip hop is dead” and “Most of the mainstream hip hop coming out is watered down. It’s just too commercial”. You most lightly have two burning questions: Who are the real underground hip hop artists? and Where can I find the best underground rap music? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These’s no doubt that some of the mainstream hip hop being released is pretty good. After all, these artists generally have big budgets behind them. But have you ever wondered why you sometimes hear new songs on the radio and you absolutely hate them? And after a while, those same songs find a way of growing onto you. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just to give you some background, one study showed that an ad from a new product or service has to be noticed by a prospect a total of nine times before that prospect becomes a customer. Two out of every three times a prospect is exposed to a new product or service, it’s ignored. That means that a customer has to be exposed to a new product an average of 27 times before he or she will buy. So what does that tell you about the music on the radio? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Quite simply, it means you have a personal musical taste that goes beyond the standard mainstream music on the airwaves. That’s why you fall in love with certain songs the instant you hear them. You don’t normally wait for a song to grow onto you, unless you’re forced to hear it again and again. Think about it. If you’re forced to hear a song that you don’t particularly like for an average of 27 times, wouldn’t you start to know some of the lyrics and maybe even sing along with it? You would, and you might even buy it. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here’s the slap-in-the-face reality: In our experience, the typical hip hop consumer is only exposed to music that makes it onto radio play lists. It’s not necessarily the best music, but since the labels behind it have deep pockets, they can afford to have their material played over and over again, even if it means using payola tactics to get the job done. This obviously doesn’t make life easier for smaller labels since they don’t operate with big budgets. And in the end, the hip hop consumer is the one that ultimately suffers because he or she might never get to hear some of the best underground hip hop available. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In ‘Rich Rapper’, (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.richrapper.com/&quot; class=&quot;hft-urls&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000099&quot;&gt;http://www.richrapper.com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;), our online music service, we bring known hip hop artists together with lesser known hip hop artists. This gives music listeners a wider variety of underground hip hop music to browse through and not be forced to listen to music they don’t like over and over again. With a click of the mouse, you can sample some of the best new underground hip hop CD’s and underground rap downloads. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Amongst music industry insiders, ‘Rich Rapper’ is said to be the most generous rap music store in the world, but only for people who like underground hip hop music. For example, ‘Rich Rapper’ is known to pay artists 90 cents per download, while other digital music services only pay 65 cents, or 70 cents per download at best. There’s a lot to like about ‘Rich Rapper’. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finding answers to the questions that disturb your sleep and keep you up at night ... &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;fantastic!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Finding answers from the people you&amp;#39;d least expect it ... &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;priceless.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I learned a couple of lessons today. Early this morning it was almost as if The Creator heard my agonized pleas for help and sent me an angel to deliver a message.  I listen so intently as he spoke and was awestruck by what I had been told. The first lesson I realized is  that I&amp;#39;d always find the answers only when I stopped demanding and expecting to find them.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title> Social Considerations For A.I.(Artificial Intelligence)</title>
 <link>http://www.meetuon.com/main/blog/noel/social-considerations-for-a-i-artificial-intelligence</link>
 <description>&lt;!-- google_ad_section_start --&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ffffff&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;also featured in Article City and Article Dashboard&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ffffff&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dennis Gorelik, a Senior Developer at IBM and creator of the PCnous artificial intelligence system, identifies a weakness of an AIS (artificial intelligence society, consisting of computers trained to &amp;#39;think&amp;#39;) , in that it was not born through natural selection, as human beings are. Dennis had included on his &lt;a href=&quot;http://botopia.meetuon.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;site&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;an invitation for others in the community&lt;br /&gt;to outline other weaknesses. So, I took up the invitation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think, yes, it is true that there may be some weakness in A.I. having not been&lt;br /&gt;born through natural selection; it may lack the inherent individualism of each&lt;br /&gt;human being due to this lack. This individualism, after all, spawned great&lt;br /&gt;thinkers, artists, scientists, etc. who helped change the course of history due&lt;br /&gt;to their distinct points of view and thought processes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, one could view whether natural selection is a disadvantage or an&lt;br /&gt;advantage from a couple of sides. Within human natural selection, there are&lt;br /&gt;biases based on upbringing, genetic factors, and how ultimately one responds to&lt;br /&gt;social events. For example, if one came from a violent past/childhood and ended&lt;br /&gt;up being a psychopath, this could override any INTELLECTUAL, socially&lt;br /&gt;beneficial learning that this person had received, if they allow that to&lt;br /&gt;influence their behavior to the detriment of mankind. Their naturally&lt;br /&gt;selected birth and upbringing could affect their decisions, based not on&lt;br /&gt;logic, but by their own emotional biases.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With AI, this factor is, at least on paper, removed on a world-based scale, with&lt;br /&gt;the Machine being the sum of all parts, from all people connected to it. In&lt;br /&gt;WIRED magazine’s issue on the first 10 years of the &amp;#39;Net, for example, writer&lt;br /&gt;Kevin Kelly describes the internet’s home for AI as being a breeding ground&lt;br /&gt;for a single consciousness by billions of people and situations. So, in a&lt;br /&gt;individually controlled AI environment, the AIS might by function -- or by&lt;br /&gt;purposeful programming -- take on the biases of an INDIVIDUAL user. But&lt;br /&gt;within the framework of mass contributions, it becomes a gigantic collector of&lt;br /&gt;information from everyone. I imagine that the ideal, if AIS is to work for&lt;br /&gt;human advantage, is that the emotional side of the Machine would at best take&lt;br /&gt;on so-called ‘normal’ emotional states of the people and systems it serves.&lt;br /&gt;But then again, what is &amp;#39;normal&amp;#39;? The most we can presume is that people, on a&lt;br /&gt;whole, do not wish to be abused or stolen from or killed, or to&lt;br /&gt;perform these actions. An A.I. system acting on this basic emotion/thought&lt;br /&gt;process could best reflect these desires.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In short, natural selection is a hit-or-miss thing on purely an intellectual and&lt;br /&gt;emotional basis. “Love is blind,” “there’s no accounting for SOME&lt;br /&gt;people,” “There’s a sucker born every minute,” etc. -- these sayings reflect the unpredictability of human beings. With the large&lt;br /&gt;amount of data an AIS civilization would collect, there would in theory be a&lt;br /&gt;checks-and-balances library for more and more questionable, dubious, socially&lt;br /&gt;detrimental things, regardless of the individual user(s). It would become a&lt;br /&gt;servant to the population -- not to any one particular group, person or thing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I like to think of the example of open source software development, or&lt;br /&gt;mainstream sites like Wikipedia that allow the people at large to update&lt;br /&gt;information at will, and seed out vandals. Humans are fallible in&lt;br /&gt;emotional/logical ways that a Machine would not be. At the same time, the AIS&lt;br /&gt;is fallible by the simple inadequacy of it FULLY capturing the entire range of&lt;br /&gt;every mental/emotional/psychological impact of natural occurrences -- from a&lt;br /&gt;mad girlfriend, to the psychological effects of a disaster, to why your college roomie likes&lt;br /&gt;to play a certain kind of music all day. The Machine, for all its exposure to the world,&lt;br /&gt;cannot know what people think -- only what we do. So, tweaks in its activity&lt;br /&gt;can be monitored and adjusted by a world at large. This at least is much better&lt;br /&gt;than trusting the maintenance to a possibly megalomaniacal techno-whiz who might&lt;br /&gt;want to take out the planet because he hated his daddy. ;)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A possible serious weakness to AIS is its adaptation by a world which becomes&lt;br /&gt;more and more dependent on its use, in everything from health care to financial markets to&lt;br /&gt;social networks. In the Great Depression, people so&lt;br /&gt;dependent on the old stock exchange during the crash literally killed&lt;br /&gt;themselves. When the World Trade Centres were smashed down, the stock exchange&lt;br /&gt;similarly was affected. These were collective economic systems that were&lt;br /&gt;jointly built and -- one could say -- destroyed by the masses as a collective.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We all know what possible consequences are if a massive blackout nullified even&lt;br /&gt;the back-up systems of hospitals, heat and light, even food and water&lt;br /&gt;production. And many people now live out their social lives via the Internet&lt;br /&gt;(example: the perp who almost succeeded in a mass suicide with lonely female&lt;br /&gt;members of his chat group.) In the event of a cataclysmic system crash for a&lt;br /&gt;fully-integrated, fully-indispensable worldwide artificial intelligence system,&lt;br /&gt;it could become instant bedlam. So, the social importance of an A.I.S. in that&lt;br /&gt;scenario would have to be very closely monitored by thinking, reactive humans&lt;br /&gt;after all. We will still have to use our good ol’ noggins, because you&lt;br /&gt;can’t eat or drink silicone chips, and what good is a mechanical A.I. heart&lt;br /&gt;in your chest if it stops working?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One more point about the implications of a fully-functional AIS, and this&lt;br /&gt;stretches to religion and spirituality. All of the world’s religious texts&lt;br /&gt;were written by the hands of men. Whether the belief in God came through divine&lt;br /&gt;revelation (as the religious/spiritualists like me believe), or simply through&lt;br /&gt;man’s childlike imagination (as the atheists attest) is a history-long&lt;br /&gt;argument between these two groups. But we do know that at least the written&lt;br /&gt;word of God flowed through the hands of humans, and that many equate this&lt;br /&gt;human-transcribed word as THE Word -- or even God (his? her? it?)self. A.I. is&lt;br /&gt;the written code of a serviceable, ever-knowing presence which is now quickly&lt;br /&gt;becoming a staple of human enlightenment, functions, even psychological&lt;br /&gt;completion for many.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;From a philosophical point of view as far as A.I. is concerned, however, this&lt;br /&gt;&amp;#39;God&amp;#39; question takes on a different route. If man indeed &amp;#39;invented&amp;#39; God, the&lt;br /&gt;argument could go, the issue might be how technology affects views of what God&lt;br /&gt;is. The point might be made by the philosophers that God was written into the&lt;br /&gt;books by human beings, mainly in an attempt to understand the meaning of life,&lt;br /&gt;of who we are as a species, and to help us just get by life. The religious&lt;br /&gt;texts were &amp;#39;upgraded&amp;#39;, if you will, from parchment, to the print press, and&lt;br /&gt;ultimately online -- and never lost its significance as it went along. So, if&lt;br /&gt;systems of thought and technology can be upgraded to higher technological&lt;br /&gt;processes, and people equate its advances with a more complete vision of the&lt;br /&gt;Almighty, what&amp;#39;s preventing some people from considering A.I. as God v.2.0?&lt;br /&gt;After all, every religious text is now online. And, these pundits may argue,&lt;br /&gt;the &amp;#39;old God model&amp;#39; was a Lord who we couldn’t see or touch -- it’s a&lt;br /&gt;major leap of faith to know that God exists. The old text was written in&lt;br /&gt;processed pulp and dictated morality -- today&amp;#39;s dominant medium is multi-bit,&lt;br /&gt;encrypted and often imposes morality in internet law, chat room behavior and&lt;br /&gt;advice columns on how to be a better spouse or member of a community -- not&lt;br /&gt;only religion. It&amp;#39;s become the Big Eye that we see, and looks back.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We created the internet through a vision of connecting humans to the universe.&lt;br /&gt;Many people pray &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ffffff&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;at long lengths &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ffffff&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;to an invisible deity &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ffffff&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;that their social and&lt;br /&gt;financial prayers are answered . Many of these same people may choose one day to&lt;br /&gt;be on their knees to what they consider an alive-acting, omnipresent,&lt;br /&gt;all-knowing, all-seeing, instantly accessible Diety -- the Creator manifested&lt;br /&gt;through A.I.S. and the internet. How this possible stream of thought&lt;br /&gt;could affect the human consciousness, connected to this new-age hi-tech savior, remains&lt;br /&gt;to be seen.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>My tribute to Steve Irwin</title>
 <link>http://www.meetuon.com/main/blog/noel/my-tribute-to-steve-irwin</link>
 <description>&lt;!-- google_ad_section_start --&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My heart goes out to the Irwin family ... Steve was absolutely one of the few guys I absolutely adored in his resoluteness in binding with nature. It is not with sympathy that I observe his passing on to the Great Lake Above ... but with awe, admiration, and with a role model&amp;#39;s imprint in my consciousness. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Steve Irwin fulfilled what he was sent here to do for the so-called &amp;#39;wild&amp;#39; and for the &amp;#39;civilized&amp;#39;. He proved that there is no line dividing the fabricated definitions, but rather, a common love.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;People shoot at enemies, if they feel that their lives or principles are threatened. People have waged war for millennia. Steve delved into much more unpredictable waters by trying to BOND with nature, rather than destroying it on the political hypocrisy that some world leaders flaunt as &amp;#39;heroism&amp;#39;. &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>First Sale!</title>
 <link>http://www.meetuon.com/main/blog/peacemaker/first-sale</link>
 <description>&lt;!-- google_ad_section_start --&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just to let you know I had my first sale today actually 2 sales. Sending a big thank you to the buyers. They purchased the stamps which you can use since they are approved by the U.S. Postal Service. I am excited also because the stamps will be passing through many hands and to different destinations. Meaning the energy of the symbol will touch many. Thank you as that is the best reward. Keep checking back for updates and new products. :)*Peacewww.christina-languageoflight.blogspot.com&lt;/p&gt;
