Medieval Poison Ring Used for Political Murders Bulgarian archaeologists have unearthed a 14th-century medieval bronze ring that might have been used for political murders some 700 years ago. Found at the site of a former medieval fortress in Cape Kaliakra, not far from the Black Sea coastal town of Kavarna in northeast Bulgaria, this finely crafted ring was probably worn by a male on the little finger of the right hand. Intriguingly, it features a round, hollow cartridge decorated with granulation and an artificial hole. “The cartridge was adapted into the ring for the poison to be poured into a glass quite seamlessly,” the Kavarna municipality said in a statement. It would have been worn at a time in which Kaliakra was the capital of a principality in the Dobruja region, the poison ring most likely had a key role in the fight between Dobrotitsa, ruler of the independent Despotate of Dobrudja in the second half of the 14th century, and his son Ivanko Terter.

The United States has responded by insisting that existing treaties and rules governing the use of space are sufficient. The standoff has produced a six-year deadlock in Geneva at the United Nations Conference on Disarmament, but the parties have not been inactive. Russia and China have much to lose if the United States were to pursue the programs laid out in its planning documents. This makes prob - able the eventual formulation of responses that are adverse to a broad range of U.S. interests in space. The Chinese anti-satellite test in January 2007 was prelude to an unfolding drama in which the main act is still subject to revi - sion.

UMETNOST MAHAGONIJA - taj, pozajmqeni, op{ti, naslov, na najboqi i najsa`etiji mogu}i na~in ozna~ava su{tinu svega onoga {to je u{lo u spomenuti Opus, u sve ono {to je, tokom prvih pedesetak godina `ivota, napisao tvorac toga Opusa. Kultura i civilizacija gutaju jedna drugu. Kao {tp la` guta halapqivo sve, istinu, pa i `ivot. Treba li taksativno dokazivati sve to? Umetnost mahagonija je nad`ivela sve, gospodo, kulturu i literaturu! La`i, mnogo la`i. Pokolewa i vekove. Zablude, po`are i mr`wu...Ratove i tragedije. Umetnost mahagonija je nadmo}na, nadmo}nija od kulture i civilizacije, i bez re~i ume da saop{ti mnoge istine, gorke i bolne... 3 - 6 2002 Ovaj trobroj su pripremio i uredili Esmer BELATUKADRUZ Dimitrije LUKI] 1 UMETNOST MAHAGONIJA Kwi`evni ~asopis : zone prelivawa Osniva~, urednik i izdava~ Miroslav Luki}, 11000 , Beograd, Serdar Janka Vukoti}a 1 / 13 * Priprema i {tampa Studio srpskih bibliofila Bela manufaktura Press Majstorska radionica rukotvorenih izdawa VALTAZAR PREVALEZ * Godi{wa pretplata (najsigurniji na~in nabavke) za pojedince : 850 din. za pravna lica : 1300 din Za inostranstvo i biv{e jugoslovenske republike 50 DM Novac pojedinci mogu poslati nov~anom utputnicom na adresu izdava~a.
