The apple didn't fall far from the tree, and Nika shone from a young age. A national and international champion herself, by the time she was a teenager, she coached and choreographed dancers from her family's studio, Bolero, to new heights and world titles. Meanwhile, she built her professional resume and impressive reputation across Europe and the world. Soon enough, Nika moved to Los Angeles, California to further pursue her dreams. It was not long before she had worked with the likes of Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Bieber, and appeared on mainstream televised award shows such as the MTV Video Music Awards, the Latin Grammys, X-Factor, and more. All the while, Nika continued to fulfill her passion for education, teaching often sold out classes to dancers at Millennium Dance Complex in Los Angeles, and touring the country and world teaching master classes, both individually, and with elite dance convention programs. She is currently on faculty at Jump dance convention. Nika's choreography can be seen on prime time television shows such as Fox TV's So You Think You Can Dance and The Masked Singer, CBS's Come Dance With Me, and more, and in both live and virtual arenas across the world - to name only two of many, Nika choreographed for Taiwanese “Queen of C-Pop” Jolin Cai's Ugly Beauty World Tour in 2019 and J. Balvin's Live TikTok Concert Performance in 2021. In 2018, Nika was a choreographer for Britney Spears' Las Vegas Residency “Domination”, a full circle moment following Nika's portrayal of the megastar during the 2011 VMA Vanguard Britney Spears Tribute Performance. Notably, not only has Nika choreographed for pop culture, music, and dance legend Paula Abdul, but she has been her creative right-hand-woman for six years. Her work on Paula's “Forever Your Girl” Las Vegas Residency in 2019, and her outstanding performance at the Billboard Music Awards in 2019. Their collaborative power continues to flourish throughout current projects. Throughout it all, Nika deeply understands and intently spreads the value of wellness. Now a certified life coach, Nika recently and successfully launched “Shaped By Nika” - a professional-level dance intensive marked by an emphasis on how the mind, body, and spirit can work together towards one's dreams.

This is a clip from our latest Patreon bonus episode, if you'd like to hear our final thoughts on Plečnik in full, please consider subscribing at https://www.patreon.com/about_buildings — the show relies on listener support, and you'll get access to our full back catalogue of bonus episodes. In our final bonus episode on Jože Plečnik, we discussed a few more of his projects, including 'Many Houses under One Roof', a unique unbuilt proposal for mass housing in post-war Ljubljana which imagined a huge colonnaded structure under which houses could be built in heterogenous harmony. We also discussed a pair of pavilions built for a convent in the countryside near Bled in northern Slovenia. The pavilions represent Plečnik's unique interpretations of the 'Primitive Hut' as an architectural form. Lastly, we discussed Plečnik's own house in Ljubljana and reflected on his legacy as one of the most idiosyncratic and surprising architects of the 20th century. Edited by Matthew Lloyd Roberts.

Spet prisluhni venčku belokranjskih pripovedk o velikanih. Tri bomo slišali, o velikanu, ki nikoli ni bil sit, o zlobnežu s Kolečaja in velikanu v škornju. In Kar nekaj zanimivih neznanih besed bomo slišali.Grk je za Belokranjce silen človek, velikan,draga je dolina, robača pa srajca, besnjak je divjak, vale je takoj, vehavec je omahljivec, vavek je vednoPrisluhni torej trem simpatičnim pripovedkam.Vir: Zlata ptica Sto belokranjskih, Lojze Zupan, Mladinska knjiga, Ljubljana 1965, bere Nataša Holy

Si že kdaj slišal za kravarsko kočo? Jaz tudi ne. In šele ko sem pravljico prebirala naprej, sem ugotovila, da je to kravji hlev. Morda še ne veš, kaj je vrsta. Ne tista za kosilo ali pred blagajno v trgovini. Vrsta je stara ruska dolžinska mera. Ena vrsta meri 500 ruskih sežnjev ali 3500 ruskih čevljev, kar znese skupaj nekaj več kot 1066 metrov. V 17. stoletju je bila vrsta dolga 700 sežnjev oziroma skoraj kilometer in pol in so jo »skrajšali« za časa cesarja Petra Velikega. Si že kdaj slišal za kravarsko kočo? Jaz tudi ne.

Ime tedna je postal Uroš Zafošnik, vodja Simulacijskega izobraževalnega centra Zdravstvenega doma Ljubljana, kjer so prejeli prestižno mednarodno akreditacijo SESAM. Priznanje, ki potrjuje najvišje standarde kakovosti izobraževanja s simulacijami v zdravstvu na primarni ravni, kjer se opravi večina stikov med ljudmi in zdravstvenim sistemom, dokazuje, da tudi manjše države zmorejo razviti vrhunske centre, ki so zgled širši evropski skupnosti.Kandidata sta bila še: Metod Dolinšek, sekretar območnega združenja Rdečega križa Maribor, kjer že 70 let organizirajo zdravstvena letovanja otrok v Punatu na otoku Krku. V tem času je tam letovalo več kot 125 tisoč nasmejanih otrok, od katerih so mnogi prvič videli morje, vsi pa so sklepali nova prijateljstva, se naučili sodelovanja, gradili samopodobo in okrepili svoje zdravje. Matjaž Cej, novogoriški frizer, ki je kopici mednarodnih uspehov dodal še najprestižnejšega. Na svetovnem tekmovanju IBI (International Beauty Awards) v New Yorku, enem od najpomembnejših svetovnih tekmovanj na tem področju, ki med poznavalci velja za oskarja v svetu lepotne industrije, je med avtorji iz 75 držav v kategoriji kratkih frizur zasedel prvo mesto.
Piše Iztok Ilich, bereta Maja Moll in Aleksander Golja. Andrej Blatnik je prozi, esejistiki, uredniškim projektom ter profesorskemu ukvarjanju s knjigami in založništvom v novi knjigi Besedi na sledi dodal še potopisni pečat. Natančneje, pečat posebne podvrste potopisja, ki ga nič manj kot odkrivanje novih svetov navdihuje sledenje starim, zavrženim, pozabljenim knjigam. S svojim zapisom o doživljanju Indije, ki ga od leta 2006 naprej z udeleževanjem na literarnih festivalih in drugih pisateljskih srečanjih ni več izpustila iz objema, je tokrat pridružil še križarjenja v zadnjih treh letih po jugovzhodni Aziji. Od Vietnama in Laosa prek Tajske, Kambodže in Singapurja do Balija. Potem ko je na prvih potovanjih še sledil napotkom priročnikov Lonely Planet in si od blizu ogledal in okusil vse, kar so priporočali, se je sčasoma prelevil v bolj zahtevnega popotnika in iskalca, strastnega lovca na knjige. Rdeča nit njegovih že doma skrbno pripravljenih poti je namreč postalo izmenjevanje in kupovanje rabljenih, zavrženih, odpisanih, s prstnimi odtisi označenih knjig, za kakršne v velikih knjigotrških mrežah ni prostora. Torej bolj ali manj zdelanih izvirno angleških ali v angleščino prevedenih izdaj, ki se jih z nekaj sreče najde le na policah zasebnih knjigarnic, kavarn in drugih težko izsledljivih neobičajnih srečevališč, nad katerimi bdijo prav tako neobičajne sorodne duše. Blatnik pri njih vzame iz nahrbtnika knjige, ki jih je prinesel s seboj, in jih s premislekom zamenja za druge, ki bi jih bilo vredno prebrati, kakšno morda tudi izdati v slovenščini. Sam, analogni neprilagojenec, kot si pravi, nekoliko zadržano uporablja tudi elektronsko branje, ki pa se mu »še zmeraj in tudi zmeraj bolj zdi preplitvo …« Kljub temu ima pri sebi tablico, polno knjig, ki jih hočeš nočeš mora prebrati, in da lahko na njej spotoma napiše kakšno zgodbo ali novo poglavje nove knjige. Na svojih raziskovalnih poteh je Blatnik sam, tu in tam tudi v dvoje, videl in doživel marsikaj, za kar množici drugih bolj vodljivih turistov zmanjka radovednosti in poguma. Spoznal ter brez idealiziranja in moraliziranja je sprejel številne obraze in šege indijske podceline in jugovzhodne Azije, ki jih spletni in žepni popotni priročniki puščajo ob strani. Prebival je v imenitnih hotelih in improviziranih bivakih ter za premagovanje razdalj uporabljal vse vrste modernih in tradicionalnih prevoznih sredstev po zraku, na kopnem in v vodi. Kjer je bilo mogoče, se je kot zaprisežen kolesar zavihtel na kolo ali, če ni bilo drugače, več ur pešačil do izbranih ciljev. Nemalokdaj zaman, saj prostora s knjižno ponudbo, kamor se je vračal vrsto let, ni bilo več tam. Toliko bolj pa se razveseli naključno odkritih kotičkov s knjigami, za katere prej ni vedel. Razočaranja se izmenjujejo s presenečenji. Ko na primer v singapurski podružnici japonske verige Kinokuniya naleti na angleško izdajo svoje knjige Saj razumeš?. »Morda majhna reč za človeštvo, a velika zame,« parafrazira astronavta Neila Armstronga. Prav tako ga navduši, ko v odročnih knjižnih jazbinah odkriva dela drugih slovenskih piscev, v Luang Pragangu na Tajskem pa vzame v roke od vlage načeti brezplačnik Ljubljana in Your Pocket, ki je tja priromal še pred korono. Vsaka zanimiva najdba ga razveseli in vedno pogosteje postavi tudi pred vprašanje, ali ga morda bolj kot iskanje knjig – saj še domače razdaja – privlačijo knjigarne in ljudje v njih, da mu povedo svoje usode, ki so jih zadržale pri knjigah. Ob knjigah in njihovih nenavadnih nahajališčih Andrej Blatnik v knjigi Besedi na sledi največ pozornosti namenja hrani. V Bangkoku, kjer je bil, kot pravi, najbrž vsaj tolikokrat kot v Frankfurtu na vsakoletnih knjižnih sejmih, še posebno obžaluje resno hibo razvoja tehnologije, ki ne omogoča, da bi na potovanjih – tako kot s snemalnimi napravami hranimo slike in zvoke – shranjevali tudi okuse. Na primer prefinjene razlike med neštetimi različicami tajskih in drugih azijskih karijev. Obenem ga žalosti, da prav tako kot knjigarne tudi tradicionalne gostilnice tiho zapirajo vrata. Če že skupaj s stavbami, v katerih so delovale, ne izginejo brez sledu, se v njihovih nekdanjih prostorih pogosto spremeni ponudba, ki novim lastnikom omogoča preživetje. V Ubudu na Baliju, je Blatnik sklenil še pred nekaj meseci, se bo pač treba navaditi na razkošne vile ruskih mogotcev in butike na nekdaj vaški ulici. Tako kot so se jih morali navaditi domačini, saj živijo od turizma. Da bi v vsej tej raznolikosti preživela knjigarna Ganesha, si še zaželi pred slovesom, da bi prihodnjič v njej morda kaj kupil!

Spoznali smo akademsko glasbenico, pisateljico in pedagoginjo Natalijo Šimunovič. Poklicna pot jo je peljala v orkester SNG Opera in balet Ljubljana, kjer je igrala solo violo. Nekaj časa je bila tudi del Simfoničnega orkestra RTV Slovenija ter Komornega orkestra Slovenicum. Trenutno v Glasbeni šoli Jesenice poučuje violo in violino, navdušuje pa se tudi nad zapisano besedo; plod tega so njene izdane knjige tako za odrasle kot tudi mladino.

Pred študijem ga je zanimalo strojništvo, pa tudi literatura. Gospod Marko Nemec Pečjak se je vendarle odločil za prvo in tako postal prvi strojni inženir, ki je leta 1968 napisal diplomo na računalniku. Ima večdesetletne izkušnje iz podpore projektnemu menedžmentu. Od rok pa mu ne gre le strokovno pisanje, ljubezen do literature je ostala, rad piše poezijo. Lani se je odločil sodelovati na natečaju Mestne knjižnice Ljubljana v sodelovanju s knjižnicami Osrednjeslovenske regije. V okviru naslova Zgodbe mojega kraja so sodelujoči pisali o prvi ljubezni. "Dedek in babica" je naslov zgodbe Marka Nemca Pečjaka, ki se je uvrstila med deset najboljših. Gospoda Nemca Pečjaka je na pogovor povabila Lucija Fatur.

V oddaji Utrip Cerkve v Sloveniji ste slišali utrinke in posnetke s slovesnosti v Celju ob ustanovnem dnevu Province sv. Katarine Labouré – Jugovzhodna Evropa. Nova provinca usmiljenk vstopa v zgodovino pod Marijinim plaščem in s pogumom sv. Katarine, ki je ponižno sprejela Božje sporočilo. Pred dnevi je bila romarska sveta maša ob 190. obletnici rojstva Božje služabnice Magdalene Gornik na Gori nad Sodražico, ob tej priložnosti je postulator Franci Petrič spregovoril o nekaterih ozdravljenjih na njeno priprošnjo. Naša sogovornica je bila tudi Maja Zajec, ki skupaj z bolniško župnijo Ljubljana vabi na sveto mašo in peš romanje za bolne otroke, njihove družine in zdravstveno osebje na Brezje.
Na začetku leta smo se zaradi nesreče v Velenju več pogovarjali o rudarjih, njihovem delu, varnosti.

Gospod Albin Potisek je, kot pravi, vse otroštvo in mladost preživel med "knapovšno" in tudi nadaljeval tradicijo deda in očeta. Zdaj je v pokoju že 22 let in tudi pisanje mu gre dobro od rok, kar dokazuje prva nagrada na natečaju, ki se je je iskreno razveselil. Albina Potiska je obiskala Lucija Fatur.

Se spomniš starogrške pravljice o Kademu? Bil je zelo pogumen vojščak in je premagal strašnega zmaja, sina boga vojne Aresa. Posejal je zmajeve zobe in iz njih so zrasli vojščaki, ki so se začeli bojevati med seboj. Le pet jih je ostalo od vse množice, in ti so sklenili mir med seboj. Z njimi je Kadem ustanovil mesto Tebe. Prisluhni kaj se je zgodilo Kademovem vnuku.Vir: Stare grške bajke, EduardPetiška, prevedla Kristina Brenkova, Mladinska knjiga, Ljubljana, 1980, bere Nataša Holy
Piše Marija Švajncer, bereta Igor Velše in Maja Moll. Začnimo pri koncu. Na zadnji platnici knjige Svet je drugačen je navedeno kratko pohvalno besedilo akademika Matjaža Kmecla, besede občudovanja in ugotovitev, da je pisanje Mateje Gaber zanimiv memoarski esej. Tako živahnega in samozavestnega kozmopolitizma pri nas zelo manjka. Kmecla so navdušili živahnost, smisel za humorno stran življenja, svetovljanstvo, eruditstvo in še marsikaj. Pisateljica se najprej spominja let, ki jih je preživela v Kuvajtu. Videti je, kot da jo bo pot vodila še v druge, prav tako eksotične dežele, a ni tako. V nadaljevanju obiskuje evropska mesta, nič manj vabljiva pa niso niti slovenska – Škofja Loka, Radovljica in Ljubljana. Pravzaprav je vseeno, kam se Mateja Gaber odpravi, povsod je ona sama – radoživa in živahna ženska, ljubiteljica lepih umetnosti in veseljakinja, ki življenje zajema z veliko žlico in se zna sproščeno smejati, pogosto tudi na svoj račun. Kamor koli gre, povsod je ob njej ali v njenih mislih njen Brane, soprog, po poklicu pediater in zagnan igralec golfa. Če smo že pri golfu, ki je za oba precejšnja strast in izziv, je treba omeniti, da je Brane za poročno potovanje predlagal obisk Škotske, kjer bi si ogledala gradove in si pridobila vednost o bogati kulturni dediščini. Tako mimogrede, malce brezbrižno, je omenil, da bi lahko vzela s seboj palice za golf. Gradov je bilo kar veliko, ogledala pa sta si le enega, saj se igranju golfa nista mogla upreti. Mateja Gaber je otroštvo preživela v Prekmurju, v Ljubljani pa se je izšolala vse do doktorata s področja literarnih ved. Na Filozofski fakulteti na več oddelkih opravlja delo predavateljice in lektorice nemškega jezika. Začelo pa se je tako, da je po študiju najprej učila na Gimnaziji Bežigrad. Ker ljubi življenje in se rada zabava, si ni mogla kaj, da se za pusta ne bi našemila. In kaj je postala tistega dne? Sama Ester Williams, plavalka in filmska igralka, ki je moški svet vznemirjala s svojo očarljivostjo in plavalno veščino. Na Gimnazijo je prikorakala v enodelnih kopalkah, obuta v sandale, na glavo si je poveznila plavalno kapo z obodom iz rož, na oči pa mačja očala v slogu petdesetih let. V cekarju je imela radio na baterije in kopalno brisačo. Mahnila jo je naravnost v ravnateljevo pisarno in se zleknila na njegovo mizo kot na sončno plažo. Vehementno sem odprla vrata njegove pisarne, vključila glasbo Glenna Millerja In the Mood, s prefinjenimi gibi sinhrone plavalke odplavala do direktorjeve mize, nanjo poveznila kopalno brisačo in se ulegla na mizo, kot da se sončim. Mogoče bi kdo rekel, da se igram s službo, ampak meni se je vse skupaj zdelo čisto normalno, saj je bil vendar pustni torek, ko je čas za norčije. Biti profesor pač ne izključuje norčavosti. »Gabrova, super si, ampak pejt iz pisarne,« je odločno in s prikritim smehom »ukazal« direktor in mi tako odprl pot do drugih razredov, kamor me je pot zanesla z glasbo in brisačo vred, toda vedno z elegantnimi gibi Esther Williams. Ravnatelj je bil razumevajoči Janez Šušteršič, po besedah Mateje Gaber najboljši direktor katere koli gimnazije na svetu. Takrat je v dijaškem svetu zaslovela kot profesorica, ki hodi naokrog v kopalkah. Poleg iskrivega humorja knjiga Svet je drugačen prinaša še veliko novega. Pisateljica se spretno izraža v več jezikih, najbolj prepričljivo in s posebnim navdušenjem slovenščino dopolnjuje z nemščino, saj se z njo ukvarja tudi poklicno. Dodaja informacije o književnosti, likovni umetnosti in glasbi. Dosežkom človeške ustvarjalnosti se predaja z užitkom. Kar zadeva medčloveške odnose, je dobronamerna in prijazna. V knjigi ni enega samega pritoževanja, ni kritike, tarnanja in sprenevedanja. Mateja Gaber izraža spoštovanje do človeka in njegovega dostojanstva, ceni pripadnost in narodno zavednost, na visoko mesto postavlja ljubezen in družino. Njen humor nikoli ne zdrkne navzdol, le redko je obešenjaški. Vse okoli sebe vidi v svetlih barvah in obsijano s sončno svetlobo. Ni pa samo resna znanstvenica, temveč je tudi ljubiteljica mode in vsakršnih zabav, tudi domačih. Ko se je kot univerzitetna predavateljica prenehala šemiti v službenih prostorih, je sproščeno veseljaštvo prenesla v domače stanovanje. Zdaj so se po njem sprehajale hollywoodske zvezde, zdaj osebki iz verskega sveta. Ko se je oblekla v boginjo lova Diano, si je domišljala, da je nadvse imenitna, mož Brane pa je imel kar nekaj pomislekov in je njeno podobo z visokimi črnimi škornji primerjal z žensko, za katero ne bi bilo mogoče reči, da je prišla iz samostana, ampak je nekakšna uživaška nabiralka moških. Zaradi nočnega hrupa med zabavami so sosedje klicali policijo, a se ni zgodilo nič usodnega. Policisti so vljudno zavrnili ponujene čevapčiče. Tudi sicer so bila vrata doma Mateje Gaber široko odprta. Družina je bila gostoljubna in je pod svojo streho sprejemala umetnike in druge ljudi, ki so potrebovali prenočišče. Neka ruska trenerka se je nekoliko preveč navdušila nad Branetom. Ocvrta jajca, ki ji jih je pripravil, so bila zanjo vrhunec kulinarične umetnosti, čeprav jo je vzorna hišna gospodinja dlje časa razvajala s slastnimi jedmi in vožnjami na treninge. Zaradi slabe angleščine je imenitnega kuharja Braneta imela za piškot. Mati Mateje Gaber pa se je na potovanju na Nizozemsko uprla amsterdamski prodajalki ljubezni, ki si je meni nič, tebi nič poželela njenega moža in družinskega očeta. Nikakor ji ga ni hotela izročiti v ljubezenski postopek za primerno plačilo. Po knjigi se sprehajajo tudi znane osebnosti iz javnega življenja in različnih dejavnosti. Avtorica v Španiji ni izkoristila priložnosti, da bi se srečala z Luko Dončićem, Marta Verginella in Igor Pribac sta ji prinašala primorske dobrote, Dragan Živadinov in Janez Vrečko sta jo na študentski ekskurziji poučila o konstruktivizmu. V Kuvajtu so delovali znani slovenski zdravniki: Mile Kersnič, Andrej Aleš, Janez Bajc in David Neubauer, Brane Gaber pa je tam opravljal delo supervizorja oziroma glavnega svetovalca arabskim zdravnikom za intenzivno terapijo otrok. Kuvajtska bolnišnica je namreč od enote za intenzivno terapijo otrok v Kliničnem centru v Ljubljani prevzela način zdravljenja najbolj bolnih otrok, ki se zdravijo po vsem svetu in ne glede na to, kje je središče sveta. Pisateljica Mateja Gaber spremeni in obrne marsikateri stereotip. O svoji tašči, partizanki in plemeniti ženski, je napisala veliko lepih besed, prav tako o moževi hčeri iz njegovega prvega zakona. V njej je toliko ljubezni in naklonjenosti, da bo branje v hudo kaotičnih in žalostnih časih, v katerih divjajo vojne, nadvse dobrodošlo. Knjiga Svet je drugačen diši po dobroti. Le kdo se ne bi hotel predati temu vabljivemu vonju?
V oddaji se osredotočimo na določeno temo in jo obdelamo iz mnogih različnih zornih kotov, ali pa damo prostor relevantnim posameznikom in si privoščimo edinstven pogled na izbrano temo skozi njihove oči. Kulturni fokus je tudi analitičen pogovor z ustvarjalci z različnih področij. Zanima ga umetnik v celoti, pri tem pa izhaja iz njegove aktualne umetniške prakse.V plasteh preteklosti, ki so naložena pod našimi nogami, je tudi nekaj stoletji, ki jih je zaznamoval nekdanji rimski imperij ... V nekaterih je tudi nekaj zanimive igre s sodobnostjo. V oddaji Kulturni fokus bo tokrat govora o nekdanji Emoni ob današnji Drami, nahajališču 11 ton izkopanega materiala,med katerim je rimska svetilka – oljenka, estetsko oblikovan predmet z motivom gledališke maske, kar je seveda zanimiva metafora za dramatičen in razgiban čas, ki se je vtisnil v obdobje rimske prisotnosti, ko je rasla Emona. Čeprav se arheološka stroka veliko ukvarja s to zgodovinsko epoho in samim prostorom, pa Emona še ni dobro raziskana; več bodo gotovo povedale nove metode in analize, ki dajejo starim kontekstom nove pomene. Zelo zanimiva utegne biti demografska sestava takratnega prebivalstva. Gostji: arheologinja Maja Lavrič, ki vodi arheološke raziskave, povezane z izkopavanji na območju Drame in Center za preventivno arheologijo pri ZVKDS, in argeologinja dr. Bernarda Županek, ki bo med drugim povedala, kaj od tega se je vse znašlo v Zakladnici Mestnega muzeja Ljubljana, kjer je na razstavi mogoče videti izbrane ostaline nekdanje rimske hiše pod današnjim gledališčem. fotografija: oljenka z motivom gledališke maske Mestni muzej Ljubljana, Aleksandra Saša Prelesnik
Na odru Plesnega teatra Ljubljana bo premierno zaživel plesno-cirkuški kabaret Vsi za enega, eden za vse avtorja Branka Potočana in skupine Fourklor, ki obljublja, da bo skozi virtuozne točke, naelektrene prizore in komične zaplete nastavil ogledalo sodobni družbi. Na prenovljenem Trgu Evrope, ki povezuje Novo Gorico in Gorico, pa se obeta pravi glasbeni spektakel – prvo od dveh dejanj koncertnega projekta Točka srečanja, ki si ga je v sklopu EPK zamislil priznani goriški pianist Alexander Gadjiev.

Po navedbah ameriškega predsednika Donalda Trumpa se Izrael strinja s pogoji dogovora o 60-dnevni prekinitvi ognja v Gazi. V tem času bi poskušali s Hamasom doseči dogovor o končanju vojne v palestinski enklavi. Tam so razmere kritične. Človekoljubne organizacije opozarjajo na povsem neprimeren način razdeljevanja pomoči prebivalcem. Drugi poudarki oddaje: - Ameriški senat sprejel proračun z davčnimi olajšavami za bogate in ukinitvijo zdravstvenega zavarovanja revnim. - Ob vročini smo zaradi uporabe klimatskih naprav še bolj odvisni od oskrbe z elektriko. - V Križankah se začenja 66-ti Jazz festivala Ljubljana.

//The Wire//2300Z June 27, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: SCOTUS SIDES WITH TRUMP ON LOWER COURTS ISSUING BLANKET RULINGS. PROTESTS IN EUROPE CONTINUE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Europe: Various demonstrations and protests continue as usual. In Poland, demonstrations were conducted today regarding the migrant crisis, with Poles expressing dissatisfaction with the deportation of migrants to their country.Yesterday a small protest was reported in Ljubljana, Slovenia, following the NATO summit this week. This summit largely did not discuss much of any importance, with the exception of again urging member states to pledge 5% of their defense budget to NATO's collective defense. AC: Demonstrations in eastern European nations often end up being a good barometer for gauging how the east/west dynamic is developing. This time, Slovenians protested against NATO and the United States for a variety of reasons, but mostly due to the recent activities in the Middle East.Middle East: Tensions in Gaza have increased following a report from Israeli media claiming that IDF soldiers were ordered to target civilians seeking food aid. In the report, interviewed IDF soldiers explained the long-standing practices regarding the targeting of civilians, such as the practice of shooting civilians "who appeared to pose no threat".AC: The Israeli Military Advocate General has also ordered an internal investigation into these targeting efforts, and several nations have issued statements of condemnation regarding this practice. These reports come after months of complaints from international aid groups being kinetically targeted throughout the region.-HomeFront-Washington D.C. - This morning the US Supreme Court issued a few rulings of note. SCOTUS ruled in favor of President Trump concerning his lawsuit to prevent activist judges from exceeding their jurisdictions to issue rulings more broad than the initial scope of the initial lawsuit. In effect, this means that President Trump's executive order to ban birthright citizenship for illegals and for those on temporary visas is in effect.Similarly, this morning the White House announced that they will be terminating the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) of roughly 500,000 Haitian nationals, continuing the efforts from a few months ago to halt/slow immigration from Haiti under humanitarian programs.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The SCOTUS did not address the merits of Trump's birthright citizenship Executive Order itself; this judgement only re-affirmed the long-standing policy of preventing judges from issuing judgements outside their jurisdiction. However, the follow-on effects of this judgement will be interesting to follow as this affects a few hot-button issues that is currently at the heart of American discourse (most notably immigration-related issues).Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//
Združene države Amerike so se vključile v izraelsko-iranski konflikt. S svojimi bombniki so napadle tri iranske jedrske objekte. Ameriški predsednik Donald Trump je svetu sporočil, da so bili napadi spektakularen vojaški uspeh, ob tem pa poudaril, da bodo natančno, hitro in spretno nadaljevali napade, če se Iran ne bo odločil za mir. Teheran grozi s posledicami. Drugi poudarki oddaje: - Premier Golob od unije pričakuje prekinitev pridružitvenega sporazuma z Izraelom - Kakšne ukrepe sprejema Ljubljana za izboljšanje kakovosti zraka? - Poletna muzejska noč v kulturne ustanove po državi privabila mnogo obiskovalcev

ISKCON Ljubljana - 07.06.2025
Palestinska interdisciplinarna umetnica in filmska ustvarjalka Noor Abed je prejela veliko nagrado 36. grafičnega bienala Ljubljana. Na bienalu sta predstavljeni dve fotografiji iz njenega kratkega filma Noč, ko sva držala med seboj iz leta 2024 in skice. V Muzeju sodobne umetnosti Metelkova v Ljubljani so ob odprtju bienala prikazali tudi omenjeni film in Naše pesmi so bile nared za vse prihajajoče vojne, kratki film izpred štirih let. Z Noor Abed, ki preučuje, kako se ideologija uteleša v gibanju v kontekstu družbene koreografije, se je o njenem ustvarjanju pogovarjala Tesa Drev Juh.
Študenti, ki bi želeli tudi v prihodnjem študijskem letu bivati v študentskem domu ali za bivanje pri zasebniku dobiti subvencijo, ter tisti, ki bi to radi izkoristili prvič, se bodo lahko kmalu posvetili prijavnemu postopku. Ta poteka prek spletnega portala, prošnjo za podaljšanje bivanja je treba oddati do najpozneje 18. avgusta. Skupaj je razpisano nekaj več kot 12 tisoč 20 mest. Tematiki študentskih domov se bomo posvetili v sredinem Svetovalnem servisu, ko bo z nami Igor Brlek iz Študentskega doma Ljubljana.
Two women in Iceland and Bolivia talk to Ella Al-Shamahi about creating female-centred walking tours that help people get to know the cities of Reykjavík and La Paz. Tinna Eik Rakelardóttir from Iceland says that the urban planning of her country's capital doesn't necessarily reflect its progressive values. Inspired by a tour she took in Ljubljana in Slovenia, Tinna combined her expertise in anthropology and business development to launch the Reykjavík Feminist Walking Tour. The walk highlights 200 years of the nation's drive for gender equality as well as the experience of being a woman in contemporary Icelandic society. Emma Rada Villarroel is a Bolivian feminist communicator of indigenous heritage and one of the co-founders of La Paz: The Feminist Tour. The tour explores the historic and ongoing struggles of the women of the city. Weaving her way through the streets of the highest city in the world, Emma shares stories about what's it's like to live in La Paz today as a student, an immigrant, a mother or merchant whilst also spotlighting the powerful women who have contributed to the city's history.Produced by Hannah Dean(Image: (L) Emma Rada Villarroel courtesy Emma Rada Villarroel.

Zdravo. V epizodi, v kateri ugotovimo, kaj dejansko pomeni izraz “ni politične volje”, vam povemo tudi, v katere kriptovalute morate vlagati. Več na hvalazavseribe.si! Nato se z javnim prevozom pripeljemo do debate o digitalnih nomadih in se sprašujemo, ali naj Ljubljana postane raj zane ali ostane kavč republika terasastih in ostalih blokov. Tudi o nadaljevanju bitke med Boverikom in Thorom. Bovči preživi drugi udarec, Trillian potrebuje oživljanje, Artur pa presenetljivo prevzame očetovsko vlogo. Vmes obdelamo še vse tegobe, ki jih ima Thor. Za boga 1. kategorije bi lahko rekli, da je zelo zmeden in nesiguren. Ali se vsaj zdi tako.
This week, we spoke with Richard Amm, a member of the Disability Action Research Kollective, or DARK, which they describe as a disabled-led group working to make disability perspectives, history, and research more accessible to a general audience.

Arend, Ingo www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Fazit
Gaza je najbolj lačen kraj na svetu, opozarjajo Združeni narodi, ki pozivajo Izrael, naj ustavi kampanjo namernega stradanja. Ob tem judovski državi očitajo, da ob pomoči fundacije za razdeljevanje hrane potiska ljudi na militarizirana območja. Kot je sporočil tiskovni predstavnik Svetovne organizacije Stephane Dujarric, se zdi, da se ljudje v zadnjem času razseljujejo zaradi iskanja hrane in nujnih potrebščin, ne pa zaradi ukazov. V oddaji tudi: - Evropska komisija obžaluje Trumpovo napoved o podvojitvi carin na uvoz jekla - Združene države Amerike svarijo pred kitajskim oboroževanjem - Gasilci na veliki vaji ugotavljajo, kako je Ljubljana pripravljena na morebiten potres

In the second episode of our miniseries on Jože Plečnik, we discussed four of his early church buildings, each representing a unique interlacing of early Christian architecture, 20th century classicism, and his idiosyncratic approach to style, detailing and planning which give all his buildings such a unique atmosphere. In this episode we discussed: St. Bartholomew's Church, Ljubljana (cerkev sv.

Klinični psihologi in psihiatri pozivajo k ustavitvi predloga zakona o psihoterapevtski dejavnosti, ki ga je vlada pred kratkim poslala v državni zbor. Kritiki opozarjajo, da predlog znižuje standarde zdravstvene obravnave in izobrazbeno raven strokovnjakov, ki naj bi opravljali to dejavnost. Psihoterapevti in zveza organizacij pacientov pa zakon podpirajo, saj pravijo, da bo ta uredil kaos na področju psihoterapije, ki bo postala samostojna zdravstvena dejavnost. Kdo bo lahko opravljal psihoterapevtsko dejavnost? Kako bo organizirana? V kolikšni meri bo zakon skrajšal čakalne vrste, kakšne so potrebe po psihoterapiji na terenu in kakšen kader mora zapolniti to področje? Bodo v zdravstvo zdaj res vstopali nekompetentni sodelavci brez ustreznega znanja? Kdo v tej zgodbi brani svoje interese in kakšni so ti? Je še mogoče, da bi nasprotniki zakona tega zaustavili in če ne, kakšna je časovnica njegove uveljavitve? O tem v tokratnem Studiu ob 17.00. Gostje: dr. Mojca Zvezdana Dernovšek, psihiatrinja in sekretarka v Kabinetu ministrice za zdravje; dr. Robert Cvetek, predstojnik Katedre za zakonsko in družinsko terapijo ter psihologijo in sociologijo religije Teološke fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani; dr. Vesna Švab, psihiatrinja, vodja Centra za duševno zdravje odraslih Logatec in podpredsednica Slovenskega združenja za duševno zdravje ŠENT; Petra Bavčar, klinična psihologinja z Univerzitetnega kliničnega centra Ljubljana; Franci Gerbec, podpredsednik Zveze organizacij pacientov.

In dieser Episode wird's philosophisch, peinlich und ziemlich gottlos. Jacob und Gabriel sprechen über den Tod des Papstes, was ein neuer Papst verändern könnte – und was sie selbst tun würden, wenn sie plötzlich das höchste Amt der katholischen Kirche übernehmen müssten. Jacob erzählt außerdem von seinem Ostertrip nach Ljubljana, Slowenien – und fragt sich, ob dort eigentlich das ganze Lube (ja, Gleitmittel!) herkommt. Warum? Weil in der Stadt alle Bauchtaschen tragen – und das ergibt für ihn irgendwie Sinn.Gabriel hingegen wird unfreiwillig zum Problemsucker, als er Gespräche von Teenager-Mädchen belauscht und sich wünscht, ihre simpleren Probleme zu haben. Daraus entsteht ein Gespräch darüber, was eigentlich echte Probleme sind – und was nicht. Jacob bleibt währenddessen bei der Religion und überlegt, wie man Kindern die Kreuzigung Jesu erklären kann, ohne ihnen eine lebenslange Therapie zu verschaffen.Zum Abschluss gibt's noch ein Spiel: Welche absurden Slogans würden große Marken niemals von sich behaupten?Und dann kommt noch Jacobs große Beichte...Highlights der Folge:✝️ Der Papst ist tot – was jetzt?
We're sharing our episode a few days early this week and it contains two segments. Jay Ward Hunger Strike First up, a recent interview with James “Jay” Ward. Jay was featured in a show about a year ago: he went into prison at 15 years old in Ohio and has been in for 19 years at this point. He participated in the 2018 Nationwide Prisoner Strike as well as other self-advocacy protests since and is trying to raise funds with his outside supporters to pay for a lawyer to help him win his release as his mandatory minimum date comes up next year. When this was recorded, Jay was 11 days into a hunger strike demanding a return of his personal items and a transfer to a space where he won't be targeted for violence by gangs, alongside a couple of other requests listed in his letter at the end of this post. You can hear how tired he is from subsisting only on water for the last week and a half, struggling to keep focus and concentrate on the conversation throughout our chat. You can find his gofundme for updates and ways to donate. If you want to support his hunger strike, his supporters are requesting people call between 9am and 5pm central time (Mon-Fri) the following numbers to voice concern for the safety and conditions of James Ward A517461 on hunger strike : Mansfield Correctional Institution at 419-525-4455 and ask to talk to Warden Harold May the Central ODRC office at 614-387-0588 At the bottom of our show notes you can find Jay's public announcement of his circumstances and requests. You can also email your concerns to drc.manci@odrc.state.ohio.us as well as to the ODRC Director Annette Chambers-Smith (via annette.chambers-smith@odrc.state.ohio.us ). Jay is wanting people to reach out to contact him via his mailing address (below) or JPay.com (using the info in his mailing address): James Ward A517461 Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction Mail Processing Center (OMPC) 884 Coitsville-Hubbard Road Youngstown, Ohio 44505 Antifascist Voices in Europe Then you'll hear an interview conducted by our comrades at crna luknja in Ljubljana, Slovenia with antifascists countering neonazi demonstrations in Budapest, Hungary, and Sofia, Bulgaria.

Update on Fund Raising and supporting TFSR A quick update to the patreon request we made in recent episodes: We're back where we were a month ago, covering the basic costs. Big thanks to those who stepped up to help! We have other costs beyond that (printing and mailing our small contribution to prisoner zines per month, replenishing our stickers, equipment upgrades) that we could also use support in if you have a few bucks a month. We have that patreon with it's early audio releases and other thank-yous, or anonymized payments via liberapay that can be one-time or recurring. We also have a big cartel store with some merch and can take payments via venmo and paypal. These are linked at https://thefinalstrawradio.noblogs.org/donate If you appreciate the work we do but don't have the extra money, the best way to contribute is to get involved in face to face organizing where you are, integrating movements against oppression and capitalism into your life and brings others along with you since we can't get there without each other. If you want to support the podcast without money, you can spread word about the podcast by getting in touch, offering up graphic skills, helping us proof our transcripts, talking about us to friends, incorporating our zines or episodes into a discussion group, sending zines to prisoners, rating us on google and apple podcasts or spreading word on social media. We also take audio submissions and if you're interested in getting involved, the production and interviews don't get us paid but they open up avenues to talk to authors about their ideas as well as raise awareness and involvement in social struggles and pick up the skills along the way. And if you live in a place with a community radio station, public radio station or college radio station and want to hear us on the airwaves, get a few friends together and reach out to suggest our free, weekly radio show and hopefully some of the ideas will filter out to your neighbors.

The last time I wrote to you I had explained a lot to you that has been going on here concerning my safety. And after that letter the administration got mad at me for going to you because they have not been trying to do anything to really ensure my safety here at Mansfield. And I'm writing you again because I don't know who else to go to with my recent situation and concerns, because nobody has been helpful. And currently, my safety is back at risk. About 7 months ago right before the admin got the letter I sent you, UMC Henry got me placed in unit 4B (the faith based block here), mainly for my safety concerns. Every block that I've been put in since I been here, I've became a victim to gangs and have also got a hit put on me, which UMC Henry and the rest other admin doesn't want to believe although they seen and heard proof. So it makes it to where I have to go on PC invest, suicide watch or hunger strike to ensure my safety. But I honestly don't like being in the hole unless I legitimately did something wrong. So my current situation is that I am on hunger strike to ensure my safety, but also for other reasons that I will explain. When I got put in 4B, its an inmate that the unit refers to as frank (4B/128 bottom) and they basically let him control the operation of the block. How? He's been in that block for a long time and manages the faith base programs, etc. But due to the reputation he has built up with the unit staff, Sgt Knowlton and others believes everything he tells them. So when I first got moved over their, I was honestly selling food to people that didn't have any. But frank went to the unit and told them that I was selling drugs to try and get me moved out of the block. The unit called me over and talked to me about it and I stopped selling food for awhile. I was do in everything I was required to do and haven't got no ticket. Recently, I was trying to organize a group meal for people that really didn't have much. And an inmate named Green wanted to be involved. But when I told Green that a prisoner support group was going to do a fundraiser to raise the money for the meal he backed out. He then went to inmate frank and told frank that I was trying to scam people and get them outside cases. Franks celly told me that frank said this and was going to put a stop to what I was doing. Next thing you know I'm on the list to move out of the block ( I was sent to 2B). I then sent a kite to Sgt. Knowlton and basically asked him why I got moved and also told him things that frank and others are doing in that block, but he disregarded everything I told him and only told me "you were doing too much, use your imagination". So I then kited UMC Henry and told him what happened and he said he'd look into it. But before Henry could let me know anything, my Cally told me that someone wanted him to take the hit on me. I then went on suicide watch to ensure my safety. Because PC invest has not gotten me anything and they put you in a cell with someone else that can have their family look you up. That's what people do here (sneak thru your stuff to find your ID number and have their family look you up). And I also started my hunger strike because I know that the admin won't do anything to help me. Recently, henry talked to me and said that he will investigate what happened in 4B, but that a hunger strike isn't how I will get moved back. But for me to go to a regular block while he investigates. And I get it that a hunger strike is not the way to get moved back, but I refuse to go to a regular block where my safety will be at risk. Henry wanting me to go to a regular block while he investigates is like saying go get jumped on while I look into this. 4C is the only block here that I will be safe in, because its the intake block (all of the new people that don't know anything about e hit on me goes to that block), but Henry will not put me there. During the time that I was on PC invest before I got moved to 4B, I found out that property of mine came up missing from the TPU vault. While I was in TPU I was writing complaints on LT. Brooks and Sgt. Risner for not allowing me to do my 2.4. The end result was that the active AIIS at the time (B. Lower) and the IIS D. Blankenship falsified a modified response to my complaint to make it seem like I was lying and that they found the items in my cell. But 2 days before Lower came to search my cell, I was called to the inspectors office concerning my lost property because someone in your office wanted to know what property was I talking about in my complaint. So I told them everything and that a theft report was filed. But the theft report was not put on onbase yet, so lower had to contact the block officer that wrote it (officer Comstock). So they called me back up to the inspectors office and offered to reimburse me with $42+ on my commissary and a few items from contraband. So I told them I'd think about it. They called me back up the next day and I told them I didn't want it because they wouldn't replace everything I was missing. So the next day after that is when lower came to search my cell. And when he left he told me that I should have taken the deal. After that, IIS Blankenship wrote 13 false statements in her modified response, which is a criminal offence that I can prove with the paperwork that I have. And now they have lower walking around as a Lt. Blankenship was already caught falsifying state documents in Darryl Smith' lawsuit. I been 5 years R.I.B ticket free. 3 of those years was when I was in level 4. I been here 2 years with no real trouble. The first year when I went up for my security review it was said that I needed time to adjust. This past year when I went up, the admin recommended level decrease. But then I find out that I didn't get my level dropped, because an incident that took place 8 years ago and isn't true. The BOC said that my level decrease was denied because I tried to kill a staff. I've never been a threat to anybody since I been locked up. And the time that they referred to is when I had just got put in a regular cell on suicide watch. They didn't have a crisis cell to use. So the cuff port had to stay open. And I had joked with the officer saying that I found a razor, so without really knowing if I had one he sprayed me in the face with OC. So they removed me from the cell to clean it, but they never found a razor. And I told them not to put that officer back on my watch cuz he sprayed me for no reason, and I was honestly mad. But they put him back on my watch. So to try and get him off my watch, in a fast motion I acted like I was reaching out to grab him. He was too far from the door for me to grab or anything, but he wrote me up saying that I tried to cut him with a razor. And they never allowed me to go to my R.I.B or SMP hearing. But that happened 8 years ago. And majority of that time since then I have continuously show a dramatic change in my behavior with no R.I.B tickets. I believe the only reason my level decrease was denied is because UMC Henry contacted someone in your office to find something that they can use against me to hold me here. Because I have wrote complaints against Henry and wrote that letter to you. And he knows how much I been wanting to leave this prison, but he won't transfer me even though my safety is continuously at risk here. Lastly! I have chronic damage in both of my shoulders that causes them to be able to dislocate if I'm not paying attention to how I use my arms, mainly only when it comes to having my arms outstretched or if I have to climb something. The last time I was placed on the top bunk, my left shoulder dislocated when I was trying to climb up. I feel backwards and busted my head open on a dresser, then on the floor. And that is in my medical record from when I was at W.C.I. And since then, I have had many other dislocations that is in my medical record. I was given bottom rack restriction each time, but I never really needed it since I been at level 4. Since I been here I been trying to get it back but medical tells me its not required for my injuries. They gave it to me for 3 months and that was it. If my shoulder dislocates while trying to climb onto the top bunk and I bust my head open again, then I can sue the medical department for negligence and deliberate indifference because I have told them about my chronic dislocations and they choose not to do anything about it. All I ask for: 1) My property to be replaced 2) My bottom bunk restriction 3) My level decreased so I can leave ManCI 4) If I can't get 3, then I ask to be placed in 4C for the remaining time that I'm at ManCI These are reasonable request and within reason.
This week, we're sharing an interview Ian conducted with cartoonists Isabella Rotman, Sage Coffey, and Marnie Galloway on the subject of the Abortion Pill Zine: A Community Guide to Misoprostol and Mifepristone out now from Silver Sprocket (and freely readable on their website). They discuss the process by which this resource was assembled, the benefits of local, focused abortion organizing, the timeliness and timelessness of the fight for safe abortion care, and the power of comics to disseminate valuable and complex information.
