Ten years later, in Johannesburg in 2002, the second summit promoted LA21 as the principal instrument for use in achieving the well-being of the world’s population. Aimed at local administration, LA21 promotes, through public participation, a delicate balance between economic growth, social equity, and environmental protection. The concept of sustainable development calls for a constant re-evaluation of the relationship between man and nature, and solidarity between generations, as the only viable option for long-term development. The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Office in Romania actively promotes sustainable development through its support of the project “Building Local Capacity to Implement the Local Agenda 21 in Romania.” The project was implemented in nine pilot cities during 2000–2002, and in an additional thirteen cities, during 2003–2004. The project covers a new set of cities every year, under the coordination of the National Centre for Sustainable Development, the UNDP implementing agency for LA21. This has been a unique participatory process, stimulating the energy of citizens, businesses, academics, NGOs, and local authorities. They all rose to the challenge and their collective efforts have produced this document. This report grew out of local needs and ideas and is a tribute to their efforts, energy and enthusiasm. Whether by giving information, offering technical assistance or through their participation, the whole community has made an enormous contribution to its success. The result is a coherent strategy with a concrete action and implementation plan. Both offer a concrete certification that the project can meet the needs of the community and represent an important contribution to sustainable development in Romania. I congratulate and thank all those who have contributed to its success.

    Romania Page 1 of 13 Romania International Religious Freedom Report 2005 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor The Constitution provides for freedom of religion; while the Government generally respects this right in practice, some restrictions adversely affect religious freedom, and several minority religious groups continued to claim credibly that low-level government officials impeded their efforts at proselytizing and interfered with other religious activities. There was no overall change in the status of respect for religious freedom during the period covered by this report. The Government continues to differentiate between recognized and unrecognized religions, and registration and recognition requirements still posed obstacles to minority religions. The Government did not adopt a new law regulating religions; however, a draft law on religious freedom is under debate by the State Secretariat for Religious Denominations and the recognized religions. Unrecognized religions have not been given any role or say in the debate. The Government has not passed legislation to return to the Greek Catholic community the churches and church property transferred by the communists to the Orthodox Church in 1948, nor has it shown any inclination to do so. An international commission headed by Nobel Prize Laureate Elie Wiesel, set up in 2003 to study the Holocaust in Romania, presented its report, conclusions, and recommendations in November 2004, and state authorities acknowledged publicly the occurrence of the Holocaust in the country. In October 2004, the country commemorated its first annual Holocaust Remembrance Day with the Government organizing public events for the commemoration. The Government also took some steps towards introducing the issue of the Holocaust in the country in school curricula.

  • CERBUL LOPĂTAR (DAMA DAMA) ÎN JUDEŢUL OLT: ZOOGEOGRAFIE ŞI DINAMICĂ POPULAŢIONALĂ Sorin GEACU∗
    CERBUL LOPĂTAR (DAMA DAMA) ÎN JUDEŢUL OLT: ZOOGEOGRAFIE ŞI DINAMICĂ POPULAŢIONALĂ Sorin GEACU∗ Key words: Rower buck, zoogeography, effective evolution Introducere Acest mamifer a fost introdus în trei locuri (fig. 1) atât în zona de câmpie cât şi în cea a Piemontului Getic. În ordine cronologică, colonizarea s-a efectuat mai întâi în zona Reşca din Câmpia Romanaţilor, apoi în zona Seaca din Piemontul Cotmenei şi în al treilea rând în zona Bistriţa-Izvoru din Piemontul Olteţului. Specimenele de origine ale populaţiilor actuale de cerb lopătar din Olt provin din judeţele Timiş şi Suceava. Efectivele existente azi nu au legătură între ele. COLONIZAREA ÎN CÂMPIA ROMANAŢILOR Condiţii naturale Primele exemplare de cerb lopătar din Oltenia au fost aduse în pădurea Reşca (numită şi Reşca-Hotărani, după satele apropiate) din centrul judeţului Olt. Ea se află în nord-estul Câmpiei Romanaţilor la altitudini cuprinse între 72 m în sud şi 94 m în nord-vest (95% din suprafaţa pădurii se află la 73-80 m). Partea de vest/nord-vest este traversată, pe o lungime de 3,5 km, de calea ferată Caracal-Piatra Olt (în unii ani, exemplare de cerb lopătar au fost accidentate de tren, ca de exemplu în martie 1977, etc.). Această linie ferată traversează pe 1,5 km şi pădurea Bistriţa-Potopinu. Temperatura medie anuală a aerului este de 9,7° C, iar cantitatea de precipitaţii este de 620 mm/an. Viscolele din lunile februarie 1956, ianuarie 1966, martie 1973, noiembrie 1975, noiembrie 1995, noiembrie 1998 au afectat populaţia de cerb lopătar. De asemeni şi gerul puternic din ianuarie 1963 (atunci la Craiova s-au atins -35,5°C în ziua de 25) ori ploile torenţiale din luna iulie 1970 (pe 8 iulie au căzut la Caracal 118,2 mm).

ABSTRACT The idea of undertaking this research emerged in 1993, when was taking in study for doctoral thesis region between Jiu and Olt River. Starting this year, for over 20 years, I studied very thoroughly this area and concluded that it has a rich and diverse natural and anthropic tourism potential that is not exploited to its true value. Also scientific researches have shown that the area benefits of an environment with particular beauty and purity, of an ethnographic and folklore thesaurus of great originality and attractiveness represented by: specific architecture, traditional crafts, folk techniques, ancestral habits, religion, holidays, filled with historical and art monuments, archeological sites, museums etc.. All these natural and human tourism resources constitute a very favorable and stimulating factor in the implementation and sustained development of agritourism and rural tourism activities in the great and the unique land between Jiu and Olt River. INTRODUCTION Agritourism and rural tourism as economic and socio-cultural activities are part of protection rules for built and natural environment, namely tourism based on ecological principles, became parts of ecotourism, which as definition and content goes beyond protected areas (Grolleau H., 1988 and Annick Deshons, 2006).

  • The Status of Artillery and Anti-Aircraft Missiles at the Centenary Celebration
    Review of the Air Force Academy No 1 (31) 2016 THE STATUS OF ARTILLERY AND ANTI-AIRCRAFT MISSILES AT THE CENTENARY CELEBRATION Ion BĂLĂCEANU*, Ovidiu MOŞOIU** *Hyperion University, Bucharest, **,,Henri Coandă” Air Forces Academy, Braşov DOI: 10.19062/1842-9238.2016.14.1.1 Abstract: Most military actions conducted by modern armies have started with air operations; the employment of land and navy forces was nearly impossible without a proper air support, which increases the idea that the vertical dimension of war extends more and more involving the use of the latest discoveries of science and technology and the design of an effective use. In this article the author’s intention is to review some achievements of missiles and artillery air defense weapon system, at a hundred years of existence, as a specialized entity in planning fire fights against aerial enemy, in the area of responsibility of ground forces groups. Keywords: modern war vertical dimension; air defense artillery; air defense missile; air defense weapon system; fighting against aerial enemy. 1. INTRODUCTION The analysis of contemporary military phenomenon highlights a continuous growth of the importance and extension of vertical dimension in military actions [1], the role of air aggression systems and the fight-back air defense assets in modern clashes. This role results from air forces capacity to strike quickly, suddenly and with great destroying power the vital enemy targets with strong and long-lasting effects upon their capacities and consistencies of the responses. Within the current and future joint military actions their larger integrated nature is more and more visible, revealed as a complex, conceptual and pragmatic phenomenon as theory, structures and actions.

Pestalozzi St., 300115 Timisoara ROMANIA [email protected] TUDUCE ADELA Bihor Environmental Protection Agency 25/A Dacia Bvd., 410464 Oradea, Bihor County ROMANIA [email protected] Abstract: - This study is an attempt to present the genuine values of Gypsy culture on the Romanian territory, an ethnic group that seems to be quite controversial in terms of its way of life or interests. However, what is known is that each ethnic group has its own culture which deserves to be analyzed and exploited or at least highlighted by tourism. Starting from this idea, this study captures the cultural particularities related to residential architecture, occupations, clothing, food and family traditions of some Gypsy communities located in various geographical areas in Romania. Gypsies’ way of life, regardless of the geographic area they live in, has its specificity and can be easily observed, which this does not coincide with being famous. Their culture is very little known because of poor cooperation and cultural exteriorization. Ethnic tourism could be implemented as an opportunity for these persons for communication, externalization and presentation of authentic cultural values, thus raising their educational and professional level.

Kristensen; posted by the Federation of American Scientists; 26 May 2016. http://fas.org/blogs/security/2016/05/hiroshima-stockpile/ Shortly before President Barack Obama is scheduled to arrive for his historic visit to Hiroshima, the first of two Japanese cities destroyed by U.S. nuclear bombs in 1945, the Pentagon has declassified and published updated numbers for the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile and warhead dismantlements. Those numbers show that the Obama administration has reduced the U.S. stockpile less than any other post-Cold War administration, and that the number of warheads dismantled in 2015 was lowest since President Obama took office. The declassified data shows that the stockpile as of September 2015 included 4,571 warheads. That means the Obama administration so far has reduced the stockpile by 702 warheads (or 13 percent) compared with the last count of the Bush administration. U.S. Nuclear Weapons 1.
