EN: The waterworks Brest, situated on the Ljubljana Marshland, is an important element of the Ljubljana city, providing 10 % of its water supply. Water pumping is the main reason for the subsidence ...on the Ljubljana Marshland. Other reasons for the subsidence of the Ljubljana Marshland area include sinking of the crockery bedrock of Quaternary sediments, natural sinking of clay - grist Quaternary sediments, particularly the lacustrine clay called “polžarica”, aswell as loading of the Ljubljana Marshland surface with additional weight due to building constructions. Systematic observations by first order levelling network as well as the observations of the depth and floating benchmarks, set up directly at the pumping line, are indispensable for the assessment of subsidence due to water pumping. The article discusses the results of the geodetic observation for the ascertainment of the Ljubljana Marshland stability.SI: Vodarna Brest, ki leži na Ljubljanskem barju, je pomemben objekt za mesto Ljubljana, saj za njegove potrebe načrpa 10 % pitne vode. Po podatkih geodetskih opazovanj se Ljubljansko barje poseda. Med vzroke za posedanje površine Ljubljanskega barja lahko štejemo tonjenje kameninske podlage kvartarnih sedimentov, naravno posedanje glinasto-meljastih kvartarnih sedimentov, predvsem polžarice, in nenazadnje obremenitev površine Ljubljanskega barja z dodatno obtežbo zaradi gradenj. Da bi ugotovili intenzivnost posedanja, ki nastaja zaradi črpanja vode, potekajo na Ljubljanskem barju sistematičnaopazovanja nivelmanske mreže I. reda ter opazovanja globinskih in plavajočih reperjev, ki so stabilizirani neposredno ob trasi vodarne Brest. V članku analiziramo rezultate geodetskih opazovanj zaugotavljanje stabilnosti Ljubljanskega barja.
The paper deals with the process of monitoring settlements of the Ljubljana Marshland and the results of the last measurements in the area of the Rudnik Industrial Zone, especially in the area of ...Ilovica, which has lately been subjected to intensive building development. The Ljubljana Marshland, actually no longer a marshland, is the area foreseen for the expansion of Ljubljana, but on the other hand it should be preserved intact and should be of natural protection value. It comprises about 163 km2. The paper presents only part of the results that to a large extent complete the knowledge on settlements in the eastern part of the Ljubljana Marshland. With increasing building development activities in this area the consequences of lack of knowledge regarding the settlements of this area and disrespect of these phenomena were evident in extremely short period of time.
Kuwait, 28 November: Kuwait Red Crescent Society is "excluded" from serving Kuwaiti Guantanamo prisoners, Red Crescent Board Chairman Barjas al-Barjas told a news conference Sunday 28 November.
Iranian TV said that preliminary estimates of victims of the quake which measured 6.3 on the Richter Scale indicated that there were at least 4000 deaths and many more injured victims. Hospitals in ...Kerman are flooded with those injured in the quake, many of whom could not be treated adequately and were therefore transferred to hospitals and care centres in nearby provinces such as Sistan and Baluchistan.
"Physicians should be aware of the risk of hemolysis associated with ABO-passive antibodies," the researchers concluded. "There is generally no agreement justifying the isoagglutinin investigation ...prior to transfusion. However, automated quantitative isoagglutinin determination could be part of the modern donor testing process, mainly in blood banks where identical ABO group units (platelets or phenotyped RBCs) are not available owing to limited supply."
Asked about what he sees in Hadithah's streets and neighbourhoods, Muhammad Barjas says: "There are intensive military operations. There is also an intensive helicopter bombing against Hadithah, ...Barwanah, Haqlaniyah and Bani Dahir. Many houses were destroyed. Three days before this bombardment, they bombed the meteorology department building and the floating bridge, which connects Barwanah with Bani Dahir. The bombardment in Hadithah today was violent."
