How to Live Beyond 80

My Problem with Aging. Let me be very candid with you. I’ll be 80 in June. Eighty! When I was a boy, my grandmother had a friend named Jack who was 80. He was the oldest person I’d ever met. I was amazed he was still standing. And still able to walk and talk. I thought he […]

About Mass Protests in the US

They say that 3 or even all 6 million people took to the streets against Trump’s policies. The organizers of the No Kings protest write on their website about an “illegal, catastrophic war” that threatens Americans. “This is America, and power belongs to the people, not to king-puppets or their billionaire buddies,” the statement reads.

Publishing the 1000th Article

A Milestone of Vision, Voice, and Collective Effort. Reaching the publication of the 1,000th article in a magazine is far more than a numerical achievement—it is a testament to sustained vision, collaborative effort, and an enduring commitment to storytelling. Behind that single number lies a long journey shaped by countless ideas, dedicated contributors, editorial refinement, […]

A 12-hour Workday as a Solution to the Demographic Problem?

The media have opened the Overton window, starting to discuss the feasibility of switching to a 12-hour workday. Since current politicians are not eager to embrace the new topic against the backdrop of Dmitry Medvedev’s recent proposal to reduce the working day to 4 hours, they suggest that veteran capitalist workers evaluate the possible innovation.

“Titanic” for the Global Economy

The global economy increasingly resembles the final hours of the “Titanic.” Not the moment of impact—that has already occurred—but rather the stage where the hull still holds, the lights are on, the orchestra is playing, and most passengers refuse to fully acknowledge the scale of what is happening. Markets continue to tremble, inflation erodes the […]

Memories of Vietnam: Lies, Arrogance, and Stupidity

This is starting to feel a lot like the Vietnam War. This morning, Iran shot down a U.S. F-15E fighter jet over Iran, according to U.S. and Israeli officials. The fate of the plane’s crew is unclear. American officials are scrambling to mount a search and rescue operation. Anyone recall that this was how the […]

A hard call, but there’s a clear winner of the stupidity.

“Demons”: Film Adaptation or Interpretation?

Film adaptations and interpretations not only have different goals, but also appeal to different audiences. A film adaptation is offered, in a sense, “in place” of the book, a simplified version for those who may never read it; the director here plays an educational role, addressing the ignorant as one who knows, the superior as […]

Verdict for “Mercy” on 90 Minutes of Legal Action

As a former federal judge who has handed down sentences for serious felonies and aggravated assaults, I view this on-screen trial not as a detective thriller, but as a very gripping legal drama.

“Master and Commander”

I envy those who haven’t watched it, because I want to erase this film from my memory and watch it again. Peter Weir’s “Master and Commander” is not just a battle film. It’s a hymn to male friendship, duty, and the romance of the sailing era, shot with epic grandeur and stunning attention to detail. […]

This is very, VERY sad news. I don’t want to exaggerate or draw premature conclusions, but this turn of events in the film industry is, to put it mildly, frightening and shocking.

Revolutionary of Russian Theater: Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko

Russian and Soviet theater director, teacher, and founder of the Moscow Art Theater, Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko, was born on December 23, 1858. Nemirovich-Danchenko became fascinated with theater while still in high school. He set up a “windowsill theater” in his room. The young director assembled a troupe of actors from playing cards: kings, jacks, and queens. […]
