Business and the Visit of the Secretary of State for Foreign Trade from France, Charles De Chambrun (1966)
THE “RENAULT” BUSINESS AND THE VISIT OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR FOREIGN TRADE FROM FRANCE, CHARLES DE CHAMBRUN (1966) Antoaneta Laura SAVA Abstract: Because the representatives of the “Renault” and “Volkswagen” companies did not show any interest, in the period 1973–1976, for a collaboration in the direction expected by the authorities from Bucharest, Nicolae Ceauşescu agreed on the prime minister Manea Mănescu signing a contract and several industrial and financial collaboration agreements, with the purpose of producing, at Craiova, under French licence, the models “Citroën Visa Spécial” and “Citroën Visa Club” (called in Romania, “Oltcit Special” and “Oltcit Club”). Meanwhile, the collaboration of Romania with “Renault” National Administration continued according to the intentions expressed by the prime minister Raymond Barre and Manea Mănescu in Paris (the 17th of December 1976), and the Romanian-French agreement concluded in the summer of 1978 (Bucharest, the 12th of June 1978), having the purpose to certify the continuation of “Dacia 1300” production, along with certain subsets, electric engines, dashboard instruments and components for the machines used in the car industry from Romania. Keywords: fields, authority, car manufacturing industry, Renault company, development. In the last decade, were written, both in Romania and abroad, several studies and analyses that refer to the success registered by “Renault” French company, on addressing “Dacia Logan”, “Dacia MCV”, “Dacia Sandero” and “Dacia Duster” car makes. First produced at the Colibaşi plant, they had, since the beginning, a low selling price, as compared to other makes of renowned companies. Due to a special interest manifested for understanding the manner in which “Dacia” products reached the commercial success during the period 2004–2014, we are to present, further on, the beginning of the cooperation between the authorities from Romania and the “Renault” company. -

Canada should be and is cold but there are exceptions, if you know where to go. In BC if you stay on the western Side of the Rocky Mountains the weather is quite mild because it is warmed by the Pacific Ocean. If you hunt east of the Rocky Mountains, what I call the Canadian Interior it can be as much as 50 degrees colder depending on the time of the year. The area has now preference point requirements, the Outfitter has his allotted vouchers so you can get a reasonably priced license and, in most cases, less than you can get for the same animal in the US as a non-resident. You don’t even buy the voucher from the Outfitter it is part of his hunt cost because without it you could not get a license anyway. Travel is easy and the residents are friendly. Like anywhere outside the US you will need a easy to acquire Passport if you don’t have one, just don’t wait until the last minute to get one for $10 from your local Post office by where you live. The one thing in Canada is if you have a felony on your record Canada will not allow you into their safe Country. -

August Von Spiess - Under the Sign of the Destiny
Muzeul Olteniei Craiova. Oltenia. Studii şi comunicări. Ştiinţele Naturii. Tom. 34, No. 2/2018 ISSN 1454-6914 AUGUST VON SPIESS - UNDER THE SIGN OF THE DESTINY ANTONIE Iuliana Abstract. August von Spiess was born on the 6th of August 1864. He spent his childhood on his mother’s estate in the Fiume region, Poland. The mother inspired him with the first feelings of love for nature. He attended junior school in several garrisons, following, as all his family, his father’s displacements as an active military officer. Irrespective of the place, the child August preferred to wander in nature, instead of acquiring school knowledge. At the age of eleven he was enrolled in the Military School in Saint Poelten. After leaving the school, he graduated the Theresianum Military Academy in Vienna and was given the rank of second lieutenant. A schoolmate described Transylvania to him as a dream world in terms of relief and abundance of fauna. From this moment on, he did his best to come to Transylvania. He succeeded in being appointed to a regiment in Orastie and then in Sibiu. Here he made it a duty to improve himself in the art of hunting. After the First World War, under favourable circumstances, he was named by the Romanian king Ferdinand I, on the first of July 1921, in the position of manager of the royal hunting. In this position he developed a fruitful activity to organize royal hunting parties, to protect the fauna and also to build roads, huts, shelters and refuges. He proved his literary talent by writing articles inspired by the world of cynegetics and also writing specialized works, which are authentic monographs of the most known hunting fields. -

Brown Bear (Ursus Arctos) John Schoen and Scott Gende Images by John Schoen
Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) John Schoen and Scott Gende images by John Schoen Two hundred years ago, brown (also known as grizzly) bears were abundant and widely distributed across western North America from the Mississippi River to the Pacific and from northern Mexico to the Arctic (Trevino and Jonkel 1986). Following settlement of the west, brown bear populations south of Canada declined significantly and now occupy only a fraction of their original range, where the brown bear has been listed as threatened since 1975 (Servheen 1989, 1990). Today, Alaska remains the last stronghold in North America for this adaptable, large omnivore (Miller and Schoen 1999) (Fig 1). Brown bears are indigenous to Southeastern Alaska (Southeast), and on the northern islands they occur in some of the highest-density FIG 1. Brown bears occur throughout much of southern populations on earth (Schoen and Beier 1990, Miller et coastal Alaska where they are closely associated with salmon spawning streams. Although brown bears and grizzly bears al. 1997). are the same species, northern and interior populations are The brown bear in Southeast is highly valued by commonly called grizzlies while southern coastal populations big game hunters, bear viewers, and general wildlife are referred to as brown bears. Because of the availability of abundant, high-quality food (e.g. salmon), brown bears enthusiasts. Hiking up a fish stream on the northern are generally much larger, occur at high densities, and have islands of Admiralty, Baranof, or Chichagof during late smaller home ranges than grizzly bears. summer reveals a network of deeply rutted bear trails winding through tunnels of devil’s club (Oplopanx (Klein 1965, MacDonald and Cook 1999) (Fig 2). -

By the early 1900s, the bear population was estimated at ,12 individuals, and Mississippi closed black bear hunting in 1932. However, habitat loss continued and by 1980 suitable habitat was estimated at 20% (20,234 km2) of historic levels (101,171 km2) with the decline continuing. Although black bear abundance is currently unknown, a recent increase in occurrence reports and documented reproduction suggests the population may be increasing. There have been 21 reported nuisance complaints since 2006, of which 7 were apiary damage. Additionally, 31 bear mortalities were reported since 1972; 80% were human caused. Government and private organizations have emphasized education on bear ecology and human–bear coexistence, while habitat restoration through land retirement programs (e.g., -

Comparative Review of Hunting Tourism in the Czech Republic and Hungary
Researches Reviews of the Department of Geography, Tourism and Hotel Management 42/2013. Review article UDC 338.48:639(437+439) COMPARATIVE REVIEW OF HUNTING TOURISM IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC AND HUNGARY Zoran RistićI, Sajko GabrielaII, Karolina SimatIII, Milosava MatejevićI Received: 22.09.2013. | Accepted: 30.11.2013. Abstract: Hunting tourism is one of the most important tourism product in Hungary and the CzechRepublic. Hunting in the CzechRepublic and Hungary has very long tradi- tion dating from the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Today, hunting is based on the sustaina- ble use of wildlife. Diverse natural and environmental resources in the area of these coun- tries made hunting areas very interesting for hunting tourists from all over the world. The aim of this paper is to show and compare the basic indicators of hunting tourism in these countries, based on the collected data. Descriptive statistics and comparative analysis method were used for analysis of result. Hunting in the Czech Republic and Hungary is the most organised in whole Europe, but, as many other developed countries, Czech Republic and Hungary are faced with the problem of reduced number of certain game species. Key words: hunting tourism, Czech Republic, Hungary INTRODUCTION More and more authors consider hunting tourism as an element of active, eco, na- ture or green tourism (Higginbottom, 2004). All classifications are based on the same idea: hunting tourism is a form of tourism related to nature, which is the main mo- tivation for observation and / or hunting of game. Hunting is an independent mar- ket product(SzaboиLengyel, 2012).According to the 2005th, which was conducted by the Federation of Associations for Hunting and Conservation of the European Union - FACE, the European Union and its 25 Member States counted about 6.4 million hunters (FACE, 2005). -

No Intervention Agency Policy Literature Cited 4 Abstract Most human-black bear (Ursus americanus) conflict occurs when people make anthropogenic foods (that is, foods of human origin like trash, dog food, domestic poultry, or fruit trees) available to bears. Bears change their behavior to take advantage of these resources and in the process may damage property or cause public safety concerns. Managers are often forced to focus efforts on reactive non-lethal and lethal bear management techniques to solve immediate problems, which do little to address root causes of human-bear conflict. -
