Why? Because the book was based on notes the Risto, Spiro’s father left him which he wrote in the 1990’s, more than 40 years after these events took place. The notes were handwritten in 3 separate notebooks. Some of the events described were repeated. The names of various personalities and the villages they originated from were given with no other information. So Spiro felt it was important to fix this, to sort things out and to provide the reader with a complete picture, particularly about Risto’s family past and present. This was an opportunity for Spiro to tell his father’s story and his understanding of life the way he experienced it, so that we today can continue his work and be proud that Spiro and his siblings had a great father who left them so many things. “We will continue, to the end of our lives, to be proud, to mention his name and to talk about his work. But I would be most grateful to the readers for reading this book and it would be very much appreciated for them to send me feedback and more information on the topics, if they possess such information”, says Spiro. In this book the reader will find basic information on the Mavrovski family from today, extending back many generations. The

  • Advisory Committee on the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities
    ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON THE FRAMEWORK CONVENTION FOR THE PROTECTION OF NATIONAL MINORITIES ACFC/OP/IV(2019)003 Fourth Opinion on Poland - adopted on 6 November 2019 Summary Persons belonging to national minorities in Poland continue to enjoy legal protection of their rights guaranteed under the Framework Convention and a fair level of financial support in the areas of culture, media and education. Few legislative changes have occurred since the previous monitoring cycle which would affect national minorities directly. A set of amendments to the Act on National and Ethnic Minorities and on the Regional Language, aimed at improving a number of gaps was approved by the Sejm in 2015 but ultimately not signed into law by the President. Three further attempts were made for the recognition of Silesians and the Silesian language, but to no avail. The Programme for the Integration of the Roma Community in Poland 2014-2020 has led to tangible improvements. This concerns in particular the area of education, where rates of early dropouts and Roma children in special education were reduced, not least through the work of over 90 Roma assistants employed in schools. Problems continue to persist in attendance of preschools and the transition to secondary education. Discrimination against Roma in the labour market and the housing sector is still widespread and more should be done to combat anti-Gypsyism in society. Whilst the authorities undertake efforts to promote tolerance and understanding, developments during this monitoring cycle suggest a persistent if not worsening climate of intolerance, racism and xenophobia. This concerns often the Jewish and Roma minorities, but increasingly also persons belonging to the Ukrainian minority and migrants from Ukraine.

  • Greek Food As a Part of Cosmopolitan Cuisine in Food Campaign at Lidl Supermarkets
    ‘FROM TZATZIKI TO MAYIREFTA’ - GREEK FOOD AS A PART OF COSMOPOLITAN CUISINE IN FOOD CAMPAIGN AT LIDL SUPERMARKETS Magdalena Serafin, Akademia Ignatianum, Cracow, Poland INTRODUCTION Certain foods, especially traditional ones, are emblematic of the national identity. You identify yourself with others by consuming the same food, prepared and served in the same way. It is believed that culinary culture is also crucial to diasporic identifications. Food preparation, cooking and eating in diaspora plays important role not only connecting people of the same roots, but also in creating new cultural formations in a transnational world. Owing to immigrants national cuisine becomes available to global customers and dictates tastes to a new generation. Greek cuisine popular with Europeans, also take important role in that global food melting pot. But Greek cuisine recognition in Europe is not only due to diasporic effort put into promoting national food abroad but also owing to food tourism campaigns, Greek restaurants mushrooming in developing countries, and also new kind of policy incorporated in chain supermarkets. ‘Supermarket revolution’ has occurred in ‘new’ developing European countries since the early 1990s. At first it penetrated local food market but it was not enough so day after day globalized food tradition was emerging. ‘Lidl’ - one of famous chain markets in Poland has also taken part in it. P like Panzarosalata or M like Mussaka or METHODS PURPOSE Combined method: Data were collected in the following way and order: The focus of this research is the analysis of Greek food’s 1.

  • How Mink, Like Humans, Were Slammed by the Coronavirus - the New York Times
    1/15/2021 How Mink, Like Humans, Were Slammed by the Coronavirus - The New York Times https://nyti.ms/2WIDbEV How Mink, Like Humans, Were Slammed by the Coronavirus Rampaging infections at farms caused scandal, scientific head-scratching and a search for a vaccine — for mink. By James Gorman Dec. 23, 2020 Denmark’s mink industry is gone, a victim of the coronavirus. The nation killed all its 17 million mink because of fears of a mutation in the virus that had spread from mink to people. Separately, in Utah, farmed mink infected with the virus seem to have passed it on somehow to at least one wild mink, raising concern about whether the virus will find a home in wild animals. And around the world, farmed mink continue to fall victim to the coronavirus. The United States, the Netherlands, France, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Canada, Greece and Lithuania have all reported mink infections to the World Organisation for Animal Health. Not only are mink the only nonhuman animal known to become severely ill and die from the virus, they are the only animal known to have caught the virus from humans and then passed it back. What terrified Danish officials was that the virus that jumped back to people carried mutations that seemed as if they might affect how well vaccines work, although that worry has faded. Even if the mutations that have emerged so far don’t pose a danger to humans, it is clear that the virus rampages through mink farms once infection begin and continues to mutate in new ways.
