On the night before our wedding, the lobby bar of the Square Nine hotel was bathed in a marmalade lamplight, as if time were suspended. I still recall the bear hugs of my arriving friends, coats slapped, hands warmed with foam-clouded hot chocolates; the glorious mayhem that followed. Later that evening, at the Tri Sešira, a 19th-century tavern in bohemian Skadarlija, wooden boards descended as if from the air, piled high with mountain cheeses, kajmak (the love child of butter and clotted cream) and processional meats with dense cuts of pork and lamb. The home-cooked scents wrapped themselves around us, as did a ragtag of gypsy musicians, ever more raucous, on beaten-up accordions and guitars. The Serbian capital isn’t a showstopper; it didn’t grab me by the heartstrings the first time I arrived here as a reporter 15 years ago. But over years of returning, the things that failed to charm me before – things I simply couldn’t understand – now make me wonder how I ever lived without them.

  • Introducing Sustainability in Contextual Visioning, 43Rd Isocarp Congress 2007
    Ranka Gajic, Introducing sustainability in contextual visioning, 43rd ISoCaRP Congress 2007 Introducing sustainability in contextual visioning 1. Introduction In this paper, the concept "contextual visioning" understands the early stages of planning/shaping of the city areas which have morphological and functional integrity related to the environmental and contextual surroundings. Almost each urban reconstruction within the city core, as well as the constructions of new urban blocks and their parts, represent urban ambience where is highly important to establish morphological, functional and social connections and continuity with the surrounding areas. 1.1. Genesis of the idea A need to adapt new building with its surrounding is present since humans constructing. Two extremely opposed opinions which are a kind of answer to that need are: 1) to fit, to look like the surrounding, to became its unbreakable part - without visible boundary and 2) to distinguish from the surrounding substantially, with the obvious boundary. This paper hasn’t as an objective to oppose any of these opinions, because it takes them as a foundation and very personal idea of any individual - designer/architect (or design group). The objective is to show possible way of the context analyses, such one which can ensure to make advantage from the most of the space potentials, clearly recognizing the limitations (Gajic & Batarilo, 2005). Throughout the history of ideas about cities, development of the idea on "how to fit" the new ambience with the surrounding - the context,

  • Sexual Selection Can Reduce Mutational Load in Drosophila Subobscura
    UDC 575 DOI: 10.2298/GENSR1302537V Original scientific paper SEXUAL SELECTION CAN REDUCE MUTATIONAL LOAD IN DROSOPHILA SUBOBSCURA Marija SAVI Ć VESELINOVI Ć1, Sofija PAVKOVI Ć-LU ČIĆ1, Zorana KURBALIJA NOVI ČIĆ2, Mihailo JELI Ć1, Marko AN ĐELKOVI Ć1,2,3 1 Faculty of Biology, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia 2 Institute for Biological Research “Siniša Stanković”, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia 3 Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Belgrade, Serbia Veselinovi ć Savi ć M., S. Pavkovi ć Lu čić, Z. Kurbalija Novi čić, M. Jeli ć and M. An đelkovi ć (2013): Sexual selection can reduce mutational load in Drosophila subobscura. Genetika, Vol 45, No. 2, 537-552. According to theoretical predictions sexual selection can reduce mutational load through male mating success. Males of good genetic quality should be more successful in matings, compared to the males of low genetic quality, thus in this way females can prevent deleterious alleles to be transmitted to the next generation. We tested this hypothesis through set up of two experimental groups from same genetic pool, where in one group genetic quality was manipulated by ionizing radiation. Within each group opportunity for choosing mates was imposed: males and females had no choice or had multiple choice. Mutational load was measured through the variability of different fitness components: fecundity and egg-to-adult viability. Our results indicate that sexual selection can reduce mutational load, only for fecundity. Group with the presence of female choice exhibited higher fecundity than group in which sexual selection was experimentally eliminated, but only in “irradiated” group. There was no overall difference in egg-to-adult viability between different sexual selection regimes in any of the group.
