GIVE PEACE A CHANCE
Give Peace a Chance I remember the day John Lennon was shot. It was December 8, 1980, and the news hit the world like a devastating storm. But it wasn’t just the loss of a singer or songwriter; it felt like the silencing of a philosopher, a man who used music to speak truth to power and feed the souls of millions.

The Calvine Photo: Best UFO Picture Ever Taken... or the Best-Kept Secret?
Picture this: It's a crisp August evening in 1990, deep in the Scottish Highlands near the tiny hamlet of Calvine. Two young guys-let's call them friends out for a simple hike, nothing fancy-are trudging along a quiet road, probably chatting about the weather or where to grab a pint later. The sun's dipping low, casting long shadows over the rolling hills. Then, out of nowhere, a low humming sound starts. Not mechanical exactly. More like... something alive, but silent in a way that makes the hair on your arms stand up.

The Epic of 1917
Before discussing the cannons of Mărăști, one must understand the deplorable state of the country at the beginning of 1917. Following the disastrous campaign of 1916, two-thirds of Romanian territory, including Bucharest, was under German and Austro-Hungarian occupation. The Government, the Royal Family, and the remnants of the army had retreated to Moldavia.Moldavia had become a vast refugee camp. Famine, the biting cold, and typhus were ravaging the population, killing more people than the enemy's bullets. However, amidst this apocalyptic landscape, a miracle occurred: the reorganization of the army. Under the guidance of the French Military Mission led by General Henri Berthelot, the Romanian soldier was rearmed, trained in modern warfare tactics, and, most importantly, restored to his dignity. King Ferdinand’s promises regarding land reform and universal suffrage transformed peasants into soldiers ready for the ultimate sacrifice.
