The article deals with the concept of future-making and its European (i.e., EU) dimension in the context of European Capital of Culture projects. The analysis is based on two case studies – Rijeka ...2020 and Nova Gorica 2025. The authors focus on ECoC bid books and other strategic documents that give insight into the desired legacy of the event and the (re) positioning of each city on the cultural and political map of Europe through the transposition of relevant European topics into local contexts. They examine the visions of the anticipated urban development that is hoped to occur as a direct consequence of the project’s implementation.
Članak se bavi konceptom stvaranja budućnosti i njezinom europskom, odnosno EU dimenzijom u kontekstu inicijative Europske prijestolnice kulture. Istraživanje se temelji na dvije studije slučaja – Rijeka 2020. i Nova Gorica 2025. Autori se fokusiraju na knjige prijave EPK projekata i druge relevantne strateške dokumente koji daju uvid u željeno nasljeđe događaja i u (re)pozicioniranje gradova na kulturnoj i političkoj karti Europe prevođenjem aktualnih europskih tema u lokalne kontekste. Pritom analiziraju vizije urbanog razvoja za koji se očekuje da će se dogoditi kao izravna posljedica provedbe projekta.
•Advantages of integral planning of recreational areas for urban population on both sides of the Italian-Slovenian border.•Landscape ecology findings support the preservation of the spatial ...distribution of key urban green areas.•Urban forests, parks and green corridors form an indispensable pattern of a green urban network connecting both cities.•Old maps and satellite images are suitable tools in defining the primal structure of forests.
The provision of health and well-being is one of the fundamental tasks of urban green infrastructure. This requires a new estimation of the strategic distribution and accessibility of green areas. Gorizia and Nova Gorica are two cities lying next to each other on either side of the border between Italy and Slovenia. Due to political circumstances, they developed independently, which applies to their green areas as well. Urban city areas and other land cover classes were extracted from the CORINE Land Cover map; the digital data were processed using ArcGIS. At the landscape hierarchical level, the importance of natural vegetation remnants was assessed based on current land use maps. Forest patches, hedgerows, remnants of natural vegetation, and spontaneous afforestation on abandoned agricultural lands were detected and delineated using CNES digital images and digital orthophoto images. The green areas positioned in the two interior city areas were delineated separately according to data on the two cities’ green areas. We estimated the forest continuum separately, based on the oldest cartographic sources from the end of the 18th century, the Franziscean cadastre from the early 19th century, and the Italian cadastre from 1940. We estimated the interior or core area of the forest patches based on studies of habitat fragmentation and the depth of the forest edge. Our research theory is based on the proven sustainability of indispensable spatial patterns emerging from landscape ecology that are especially necessary in altered (rural, urban) landscapes. Our results show that the most important pattern of green areas supporting the well-being of both cities’ inhabitants can be achieved by the mutual development of the two major urban forests, each situated in one of the cities, in addition to riparian corridors and bits of nature represented by public parks. Collaborative planning between the two cities would enhance common benefits, including future economic and social influences and innovations.

As a reporter for the prestigious New York Times the author interviewed many of the leading political figures of the Balkans (Illyria). He also sought out the area's intellectuals, many of them ...critical of their leaders, and everyday people who provide a sense of daily life. He devotes a chapter to each ethnic group from Vlachs to Serbs, talks about their differences and similarities, and does so without giving offense. He also provides a short historical account of the various places he visits, which deepens our understanding of the local cultures.
The Praeorbitolina/Palorbitolinoides Association characterizes a Lower Cretaceous biostratigraphic interval, which is marked by the common occurrence of these two foraminiferal genera. The base of ...this interval is defined by the inception of Palorbitolinoides cf. orbiculata, whereas the top is marked by the disappearance of the genus Praeorbitolina. The Praeorbitolina/Palorbitolinoides Association is evident in the uppermost part of the Lower Aptian of the Apulian and Adriatic Carbonate Platforms, as well as of the eastern Arabian Plate, all located at the southern margin of the Neo-Tethys.

The eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano starting on 14 April 2010 resulted in the spreading of volcanic ash over most parts of Europe. In Slovenia, the presence of volcanic ash was monitored ...using ground-based in-situ measurements, lidar-based remote sensing and airborne in-situ measurements. Volcanic origin of the detected aerosols was confirmed by subsequent spectral and chemical analysis of the collected samples. The initial arrival of volcanic ash to Slovenia was first detected through the analysis of precipitation, which occurred on 17 April 2010 at 01:00 UTC and confirmed by satellite-based remote sensing. At this time, the presence of low clouds and occasional precipitation prevented ash monitoring using lidar-based remote sensing. The second arrival of volcanic ash on 20 April 2010 was detected by both lidar-based remote sensing and airborne in-situ measurements, revealing two or more elevated atmospheric aerosol layers. The ash was not seen in satellite images due to lower concentrations. The identification of aerosol samples from ground-based and airborne in-situ measurements based on energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed that a fraction of particles were volcanic ash from the Eyjafjallajökull eruption. To explain the history of the air masses bringing volcanic ash to Slovenia, we analyzed airflow trajectories using ECMWF and HYSPLIT models.

A statement of Don PIERINO, the founder of the community. Don Pierino GELMINI was born in Pozzuolu Martesani ...(Milan) in 1925. In 1949 he became a priest and was later transferred to Rome. In 1963 he had met Alfred Navona, drug addict, who asked him for help. When Alfred rejected the offered money and assistance in the hospital, don Pierino chose to take him home, although he had no experience or knowledge about drug addiction. Even though, this meeting was the birth of first and many more Communities Centers for drug addicts throughout the world.
Don PIERINO na obisku pri skupnosti odvisnikov, komuna narkomanov, ki se zdravijo v samostanu; izjava Don PIERINO, ustanovitelj skupnosti. Don Pierino GELMINI se je rodil v Pozzuolu Martesani pri Milanu, leta 1925. Leta 1949 je bil posvečen v duhovnika, nekaj let je bil župnik, nato pa je bil premeščen v Rim kot sekretar kancelarja Svete Rimske Cerkve na vatikanskem ministrstvu. Leta 1963 je srečal Alfreda, narkomana, ki ga je prosil za pomoč. Ko je zavrnil ponujeni denar in pomoč v bolnišnici, se je Don Pierino odločil in ga peljal k sebi domov, čeprav ni poznal problema narkomanije. To srečanje je rodilo prvi center Skupnosti Srečanje, ki so se razširile po vsem svetu in štejejo dvesto skupnosti.- Information:- Don PIERINO has visited a community for drug addicts held in a monastery Kostanjevica in Nova Gorica.- Original language summary:

Od 1. do 7. junija bo v Sloveniji Teden solidarnosti. Solidarnost, humanist, pomoč so besede, ki naj bi ob širših družbenih akcijah zaživele tudi v vsakdanjem življenju.
Med te sodijo solidarnostne akcije, ki jih razvija in organizira Rdeči križ Slovenije. Z zbiralnimi akcijami razvija solidarnost med ljudmi, preverja organizacijske, mobilizacijske in operativne sposobnosti organizacij Rdečega križa, ustvarja možnosti za reševanje socialnih težav, obnavlja zaloge za pomoč v morebitnih naravnih in drugih nesrečah, opozarja tudi na pomen sekundarnih, odpadnih surovin.
V lanskoletni akciji so občani zbrali 161.325 kg rabljenih oblačil in drugih uporabnih tekstilnih izdelkov, 4018 parov obutve, 57 kosov pohištva in 3500 kg odpadnega tekstila.
Na Rdečem križu ugotavljamo, da se zaradi težjih gospodarskih in socialnih razmer veča število tistih, ki prejemajo pomoč. To so predvsem organizacije invalidov, duševno in telesno prizadetih otrok in odraslih, socialni oskrbovanci, socialno ogrožene družine, bolniki in njihove družine in tisti, ki so prizadeto v naravnih in podobnih nesrečah.
Tokrat vabimo občane, da sodelujete v akciji, ki bo jutri po vsej Sloveniji, da oddate predmete, ki jih sami ne potrebujete več, so pa še uporabni. Zbirali bomo oblačila, posteljnino, obutev, pohištvo, šotore in tekstilne odpadke.
Aktivisti Rdečega križa in vozila bodo označeni z oznako Rdečega križa, darovano blago bodo pobirali od 17. do 19. ure. Zavoje odložite pred vaša vhodna vrata najpozneje do 17. ure ali pa jih predajte Krajevni ali Občinski organizaciji Rdečega križa do 19. ure.
Vsi , ki želite darovati pohištvo, bivalne prikolice ali druge večje predmete, za katere bomo morali zagotoviti dodaten prevoz, sporočite to Občinski organizaciji Rdečega križa.
Vsem, ki boste darovali in tako pomagali sočloveku, se za prispevke zahvaljuje rdeči križ Slovenije - tudi v imenu tistih, ki bodo pomoč prejeli.- Information:- A solidarity week – posters, solidarity campaigns, training first aid groups, the rescue of injured people, clothes collection and sorting them into boxes.

Letos smo se v Sloveniji pridružili mednarodni kampanji bele pentlje. Kdor si pripne belo pentljo sporoča, da nasprotuje nasilju nad ženskami. Naša ekipa je na novogoriških ulicah anketirala mimoidoče in ugotovila, da jih večina ne pozna pomena bele pentlje. Žene in matere v materinskem domu v Solkanu ga poznajo. Danes so ob mednarodnem dnevu žensk dobile obisk. Namesto cvetja so jim poklonili denar - da bodo lažje prebrodile najhujšo stisko.
