The Holbrooke award, named for the late U.S. diplomat, is presented by the Ohio-based Dayton Literary Peace Prize Foundation. In 1995, Holbrooke helped broker the Dayton Peace Accords that ended the Bosnian War, a conflict Cisneros has thought of often. Civilians and unborn generations ever after suffer with the shrapnel of that conflict embedded in their psyche like hidden landmines. I just returned from Sarajevo, and I know this is true,” Cisneros said in a statement. Previous recipients of the Holbrooke award include Elie Wiesel, Margaret Atwood and Louise Erdrich.

Here is a running list of Goldman's partners that have retired from the firm — or moved on to roles at other companies — since Solomon became CEO.

It's not just about remote work, though that remains one of the most important benefits for many workers. "What we're also seeing is that there are different approaches to hybrid work that people are exploring." This comes as more companies are outsourcing talent from lower cost-of-living countries after the pandemic made remote work more feasible. Some of these companies are also giving staffers the option of shorter workweeks and remote work.

Primarul Mihai Chirica nu a răspuns apelului reporterului G4Media.ro pentru a da detalii despre montarea plăcuței. La eveniment a participat și primarul Mihai Chirica, și el membru PNL. Pretextul amplasării bustului a fost acela că, pe 1 aprilie 2021, s-au împlinit 140 de ani de la nașterea lui Goga. Printre altele, a fost inițiatorul unui plan prin care sute de mii de evrei români urmau să fie deportați în Insula Madagascar.

În iarna aia a fost dus din nou în celulă, unde am putut să-i ducem un brăduţ… L-am strecurat prin uşiţa celor două rânduri de gratii. Închis la Aiud, Mircea Vulcănescu a ţinut o serie de conferinţe considerate subversive de torţionari, pentru că le menţinea oamenilor moralul. A fost izolat, la fel ca alţi 12 bărbaţi din celula sa, în hrubele secţiei 1. Filosoful a murit însă pe 28 octombrie 1952, bolnav de plămâni, ca urmare a tratamentului inuman la care a fost supus. Fisa matricola penala FOTO http://adriancioflanca.blogspot.com/Ion Constantinescu-Mărăcineanu, coleg de închisoare, în articolul „Ultimele clipe ale lui Mircea Vulcănescu”, publicat în revista Memoria, povesteşte ceea ce Vulcănescu i-ar fi comunicat în ultimele clipe ale vieţii:
