  • FC Shakhtar Annual Report Season 2009|10
    www.shakhtar.com FC Shakhtar Annual Report season 2009|10 The season 2009/2010 turned out to be interesting and eventful. I think the fans will remember it for many years to come. WE HAVE CONSTRUCTED DONBASS ARENA – THE STADIUM IS OF A HIGH EUROPEAN STANDARD. IT MEETS THE AIMS AND AMBITIONS OF OUR CLUB. Donbass Arena was constructed for Shakhtar to play there and for the spectators to eagerly come and support their team. I think we managed to achieve this. Before the opening of Donbass Arena I had supposed that 30–35 thousand spectators were a real number for an ordinary game of the Ukrainian Championship. The first year of the stadium’s operation proved it. Shakhtar won the gold medals of 2009/2010 Ukrainian Championship. It is the fifth champion’s title of our team. This time Shakhtar starts the most prestigious European club tournament from the group stage. The Club’s management and fans are looking forward to the successful performance of our team. I’d also like to say that we are very grateful to the head coach, Mircea Lucescu, for the team he’s created. Over the last 6 years, we’ve won 4 championship titles, the UEFA Cup, and we are showing spectacular football of high European standard. Today we all believe in our team and this means for We BELIEVE in our team us a lot more than just words. with our whole HEARTS We believe in our team with our whole hearts and know, whoever our team plays against, we may expect victory.

    DESIGN CODES as an INSTRUMENT of CULTURAL TRANSFORMATION in URBAN AREAS A policy brief for Culture & Creativity EU-Eastern Partnership Programme №16 12 / 08 / 2017 Yaroslav Belinsky Olga Birzul Lusya Zorya Visual pollution create harmful changes in the urban spaces shutterstock.com Design Codes as an instrument of cultural transformation in urban areas 1 / Summary A Design Code is a comprehensive approach to visual solutions and ar- rangement and formation of the aesthetics of a city’s appearance, which also addresses the problem of accessibility and ease of use of the city and its infrastructure. The application of design codes is becoming a widespread practice in cities around the world, but in Ukraine this practice is still underde- veloped at all levels of implementation and use. This brief aims to offer rec- ommendations on the introduction, implementation and use of design codes in Ukrainian cities. 2 / Introduction A design code consists of clear rules (municipal guidelines) that form a com- fortable and visually pleasant environment on the streets. A city’s design code organises the following elements of urban space: Public space (squares, pavements, public transport stops, parking spaces); Navigation (elements of street, road/transport and cycling infrastructure); Street planning (outdoor advertising, information signs and street lighting); Temporary structures (summer cafés, toilets, kiosks); Small architectural forms (fountains, street furniture, art objects); Landscaping elements (landscape design). The visual organisation and aesthetics of the cityscape come in tandem with the challenge of accessibility and convenience of use of the city and its in- frastructure. Moreover, the design code must be a comprehensive approach to creating a comfortable space for life, taking into account the principle of inclusion in cities and towns in accordance with their cultural, historical and geographical characteristics.

  • Gezmek Bir Zamanlar Insan Ve Evren Arasında Var Olan Uyumu Tekrar Kurar.’’ Anatole France
    ‘’Gezmek bir zamanlar insan ve evren arasında var olan uyumu tekrar kurar.’’ Anatole France LVİV GEZİ REHBERİ; Lviv, Ukrayna'nın batısında, Polonya’ya 70 kilometre uzaklıkta bulunan bir şehir. Toplamda 860.000 kişilik nüfusunun %88'i Ukraynalı, %8'i Rus, %1'i de Polonyalı. Galiçya Kralı Daniel önderliğinde 13. yüzyılda kurulan şehir, adını ise Daniel'in en büyük oğlu olan Leo'dan almış ve bu sayede şehrin simgesi de aslan olmuş. Zaten Lviv Ukrayna dilinde de kelime anlamı olarak aslan demek. Şehrin birçok noktasında ve Lviv ambleminde de aslan figürüne rastlamanız mümkün. 14. Yüzyılda Polonya hakimiyetine geçen Lviv, 1772 yılında Habsburg Hanedanlığı tarafından ele geçirilmiş ve adı Lemberg olarak değiştirilmiş. 1918 yılında Avusturya-Macaristan İmparatorluğu’nun çökmesi ile yeniden Polonya hâkimiyetine girmiş ve 2. Dünya Savaşı'ndan sonra Kızıl Ordu’nun müdahalesi ile Sovyetler Birliği'ne katılmış. 1991'de ise bağımsızlığının ardından Ukrayna'ya bağlı bir şehir haline gelmiş. II. Kasimir’in emriyle kurulan Lviv Üniversitesi ve Natsyonal'niy Unyversitet olmak üzere iki yüksek eğitim kurumuna ayrıca filarmoni orkestrasına ve dünyaca ünlü bir opera binasına sahip. Rynok Square adı verilen tarihi şehir merkezi, UNESCO tarafından Dünya Kültür Mirası Listesi'ne alınmış. Galiçya bölgesinin merkezi olma özelliğini taşıyan Lviv, tarihi yapısını 2. Dünya Savaşı'nda da korumayı başarmış. Nazi Almanyası döneminde işgale uğrayan şehirdeki Yahudilerin neredeyse tamamı katledilmiş. Bir günde 4000 kişinin öldürüldüğü bu katliamın izlerini günümüzde dahi görebilmek mümkün. 2000li yıllarından başından itibaren artık tam anlamı ile yaralarını sarmayı başaran ve gelişimini tamamlayan Lviv, günümüzde ülkenin en fazla turist çeken şehri olma unvanına sahip. Yılın her dönemi adeta turist akınına uğruyor ve ekonomik anlamda ülkeye önemli ölçüde katkı sağlıyor.
