Čeprav se slepi in slabovidni z odkritjem spominske plošče na stavbi, v kateri je deloval prvi zavod za slepe na območju Slovenije, s ponosom zazirajo v zgodovino, pa se zdi, da je sto let kasneje izobraževanje slepih in slabovidnih na pomembni prelomni točki.

Piše Marija Švajncer, bereta Eva Longyka Marušič in Igor Velše. Odlika esejev Borisa Šinigoja v knjigi Novemu Orfeju naproti je avtorjevo veliko poznavanje filozofije in teologije, občudovanja vredna sta poliglotstvo in bogastvo virov. Poglavitna naravnanost knjige, ki jo avtor sam predstavlja kot esejistično potovanje, pa so iskrena vernost, predanost Bogu in spodbujanje bralk in bralcev, da bi s srcem začutili moč duhovnosti in prihod Novega Orfeja – Kristusa. Avtor pravi: »V tem duhu želijo pričujoči eseji pričevati zanj, ki se ne razodeva le na skrivnem v utišanju srca kot odločilna Beseda človeškega življenja, temveč tudi sredi sveta v na novo prebujenem duhovnem posluhu kot Novi Orfej, rečeno s Klementom Aleksandrijskim, ki z novo pesmijo spodbudi odrešilna spreobrnjenja številnih duš ter na novo preobrazi in medsebojno uglasi prvine celotnega kozmosa.« Šinigoj v treh esejističnih sklopih po poteh filozofije, filokalije in filharmonije, se pravi dejavne ljubezni do Modrosti, Lepote in Ubranosti, kaže pot k poslednji Resnici in odrešilni Ljubezni v padlem svetu, ki po njegovem mnenju čedalje bolj tone v zlo. »Ljubezen, ki nas z blagim spevom Novega Orfeja nepreslišno kliče k spreobrnjenju, da iz pobeljenih grobov vstanemo v novo Življenje onkraj smrti.« Sleherno avtorjevo miselno iskanje, pa naj se vrača v antiko ali se srečuje s sodobno filozofijo, poezijo in glasbo, se izteče v bližino Božjega obličja; ali bolje, Šinigoj ni iskalec, temveč je svoj smisel že našel, saj je Bog tako ob njem kot v njem. Bog kot Ljubezen, tako občuti, ničesar ne vsiljuje, ampak zgolj neizmerno potrpežljivo ljubi človeka in stvarstvo. Šinigoj samega sebe uvršča med današnje filozofe, čeprav v njegovem prizadevanju prevladuje teološka misel. Najtežji vprašanji zanj sta skrivno sobivanje in medsebojni odnos Božje Previdnosti ter človekove svobodne presoje in izbire. V svojo duhovno držo vključuje molitev in slavljenje. Prihod Novega Orfeja bi se moral uresničiti kot novo rojstvo krščanskega humanizma. Današnji svet Šinigoj vidi kot kibernetsko združevanje organskih in biomehatroničnih prvin, v tem dogajanju pa pogreša vzgojo duha. Čas je po njegovem mnenju duhovno izpodjeden, pri pojmovanju pravičnosti in morale prevladuje zgolj juridično pojmovanje. Vpraša se, kako sredi zapeljivih napevov koristoljubja in uspavajočega ponavljanja sloganov pridobitništva prebuditi usnuli um sodobnega človeka, in ponudi odgovor, da bi morali obnoviti duhovno vzgojo in oblikovati novega človeka z zgledovanjem po rešilnem in nesmrtnem Kristusovem evangeljskem liku. Boris Šinigoj piše tudi o odgovornosti do drugih ljudi, sočutju, smrti, grehu, odrešitvi in vstajenju. Pri tem se navezuje na Boetija, Platona, Aristotela, Kierkegaarda, Lévinasa, Wittgensteina in številne druge filozofe, pozornost namenja slovenskim avtorjem, med njimi prezgodaj umrlemu Miklavžu Ocepku, izhaja pa tudi iz prevajalskih, miselnih in uredniških opusov Primoža Reparja in Gorazda Kocijančiča. Kot mnogim drugim se tudi njemu zdijo zavezujoča duhovna spoznanja Dostojevskega iz romana Bratje Karamazovi. Ozre se po Bibliji, saj so v njej, kot je zapisal Lévinas, zbrane vse temeljne stvari, ki so morale biti izrečene, zato da bi človeško življenje imelo smisel. Biblijske osebnosti odstirajo transcendenco. Religioznim vidikom je podrejena tudi glasba. Slišati jo je kot premagovanje časa in oglašanje večnosti. Šinigoj omeni zaprtje družbe in onemogočanje javne glasbene dejavnosti v koronskem času. Slovenska filharmonija je tedaj pripravila nastop manjše glasbene zasedbe. Izvajalci, tako instrumentalisti kot pevci, so si morali nadeti črne maske in biti primerno oddaljeni drug od drugega. »Petje z udušljivimi maskami na ustih je nedvomno podvig brez primere v vsej zgodovini glasbe.« In še: »Kako naj polni duševne bolesti z masko na ustih še pojemo psalme, ne da bi udušili glasbeno Muzo, ki nas osvobaja predsmrtnega strahu?« Šinigojevi eseji v knjigi Novemu Orfeju naproti so napisani v privzdignjenem slogu, izbranih in poetičnih besedah, mnogo pojmov pisec zapisuje z veliko začetnico in tako poudarja njihov pomen. Kljub osebnemu odnosu do verskih vprašanj je večina esejev napisana na visoki teoretični ravni, poznavalsko in poglobljeno, ter opremljena tudi z znanstvenim aparatom, zato bi jih bilo mogoče v marsičem imeti za znanstvene razprave. Zlasti srečavanje z afganistansko glasbo, proučevanje njenega razvoja in vplivov nanjo je vsebinsko pomembno, inovativno in objektivno. V teh zvokih se razodeva posebna lepota. Pisec spremne besede Alen Širca ima besedila Borisa Šinigoja za nekakšen anarhokrščanski manifest za avtentično krščansko premišljevanje filozofije, duhovnosti, poezije in predvsem glasbe. Šinigoj je tudi izvrsten glasbenik in odličen izvajalec na historičnih strunskih glasbilih.

Piše Jože Štucin, bereta Eva Longyka Marušič in Igor Velše. Marko Pišljar je poezijo začel pisati dokaj pozno. Glede na njegov poklic – več mandatov je bil predstojnik Psihiatrične bolnišnice Idrija, predava pa tudi na Univerzi na Primorskem – je to razumljivo, saj psihiatrija zagotovo terja od človeka popolno predanost drugim, seveda pa tak poklic prej ali slej zahteva tudi pogled vase, v svoja stremljenja, upanja in razmisleke. Knjiga Šepet križpotij ima sedem tematskih enot: Na poti, Več podob je v tebi, Izgubljeni v kaosu križpotja, V tišini praznine, Kjer tišina in veter se bratijo, Gora in Beseda. Naslovi so pomensko premišljeni in dokaj jasno opredeljujejo vsebinski fokus posameznih sklopov. Najbližje liriki in osebni izpovednosti, kjer sta literarni subjekt in avtor tesno povezana, je cikel Več podob je v tebi. V teh pesmih je razkrita intimna vez med pesnikom in njegovo drago, vez med bitjema, ki sta se nekoč davno srečala v študentskem domu. Takole pravi v pesmi Na stopnišču: "Presenetila si me tisti večer / na stopnišču študentskega doma. / Srce s pogledom si razkrila, / odstrla meglico spoznanja z mojega obraza. // Slišal sem tvoje besede, / ki so naselile se v meni. / Tvoje misli so spregovorile mojim / v novi harmoniji najinih globin." Rojstvo ljubezni je rojstvo sveta in življenja. Vse drugo je megla, sivina in nič. Samo ljubezen, v kakrši koli podobi že, je agens hrepenenja, je gibalo biti in razodetje upanja. Le z ljubeznijo izstopimo iz sebe in se zbližamo z drugim, postanemo več kot zgolj numerična enota človeštva, postanemo subjekt, ki ima neskončno zaledje smisla. Ali kot v nadaljevanju pesnik neposredno pove v pesmi Sestop k tebi: "Prekinil sem hitenje, / preveč sem bil zadihan. / Umíril sem misli / in srce. // Začutil sem žar sonca, / zagledal odsev gozda, / pobožal z nogo preprogo v sobi, / zaslišal dih tvoje pripovedi." Kirurško natančno, bi lahko komentirali, je tu ponazorjena vsa silna moč ljubezni, ki človeka vrne k sebi, ga obdari z možnostjo, da potem "iz sebe" uzre vse lepote "zunanjega sveta" in drugega, začuti sonce, občuduje odsev gozda, predvsem pa "zasliši dih njene pripovedi"; jaz se splete v dva jaza. Jaz ni več sam, ampak je sam z njo v novi celoti, v novi podobi razširjene biti. V drugih ciklih, ki so pomensko raznorodni – večinoma se dotikajo eksistencialnih tem – izstopa sklop Izgubljeni v kaosu križpotja. Nehote se mi je v to stavčno strukturo vrinila beseda "brezpotje"; torej nekaj takega kot človek v puščavi, kjer ni nobene poti, hkrati pa so vse smeri na široko odprte. Iskanje smisla v tej "vrženosti v svet", ki si ga nismo izbrali sami – kar je edino, ko o subjektu odločajo samo in izključno drugi – porodi vprašanja kam, zakaj, kdo in kako ... Kako narediti svojo podobo resnično, kako ji dati pomen in smisel, (za)vest o sebi, kako uzreti resnico in se okopati v spoznanju odrešitve. Poti, kot rečeno, je neskončno, križpotje pri Pišlarju pa sugerira iskanje Boga, iskanje ljubezni do drugega, odprtost za čudež stvarstva, ki ti je dan v upravljanje. V pesmi Prepletajoča se pota takole strne: "Nebo se mi je odmikalo. / Za trenutek sem včasih začutil svoj čas, / prepoznal najina prepletajoča pota, / ki so se razdvajala in zopet približevala. // Tiho polzi čas v preteklost, / razdiralna odsotnost uničuje skupna pota. / Zastrte v kopreno otožnosti se budijo želje, / da v kaosu našla bi pot in se srečala." In spet smo pri temelju. Če smo malo provokativni, je ljubezen kar pesnikova draga in Bog je njeno utelešenje. Vstajenje dveh bitij iz kaosa križpotja v objemu Duha, ki ju vodi v enost, pravo romanje dveh samot do ene duše, ki je radostno spoznanje. Življenje kot potovanje k Njej in Njemu. Podobno kot popotnik na 56. strani, kjer se cikel bivanja spet vrne v stanje nemoči, v odhod, ki ga človek sicer lahko nadzira in celo realizira, ne more pa mu pobegniti. Fatalnost rojstva in smrti je najpopolnejša kategorija biti: "Prišel je na konec. // Potovanje je zadišalo po jeseni (...) Zagledal se je v reko, / ki je odtekala, / reko, brez obzorja." V zbirki Marka Pišljarja Šepet križpotij je tudi nekaj angažiranih pesmi, ki govorijo o trpljenju in nesmiselnih smrtih nedolžnih; tak je pač svet, včasih krut, včasih krasen, pogosto gluh, velikokrat kot pesem blag ... Najbolj strašne rane pa beremo v pesmi V viharju nasilja: "Združila jih je smrt, / obnemogle in sestradane v koncentracijskih taboriščih, / postavljene pred strelski vod." Kje je tu Bog, človeka spreleti dvom, kje je tu rešilna ljubezen, kje sta pravica in sočutje? Tema je tudi luč brez fotonov, se tolažimo, pesnik pa svojo tolažbo odkrije v meditaciji: "Sedim pred hišo / in gledam / v mogočen Kanin. / Spremljam potovanje oblakov iznad Soče, / poslušam prve deževne kaplje / in ptice zgodnjega pomladanskega gozda. / Prepuščam se objemu okolja. / Dotikam se zemlje. / Bivam. / Sem doma."

Letos mineva sto let od prelomnega trenutka, ko je nemški fizik Werner Heisenberg izpeljal zakone moderne kvantne fizike. Kar se je začelo kot abstraktna teorija za razlago skrivnostnih pojavov, je v desetletjih preraslo v temelje sodobnih tehnologij. Tokrat smo potovali v svet fotonov in elektronov in ta svet je precej drugačen od tega, ki smo ga vajeni in kot ga spontano razumemo. Če se nam zdi, da je v našem svetu vse obstaja na določenem mestu ob določenem času, je ta svet, kvantni svet, kot mu pravimo, zavit v meglo verjetnosti. Slišati je zapleteno … in najbrž je res kaj na tem. Frekvenca X je bila ob Kvantnem dnevu na Inštitutu Jožef Stefan, da vso to zapletenost vsaj malo razblini. Gostje: dr.

Modern New York, riotous as it is for an American city, felt staid and sterile beside the island's explosively peopled black-and-white past.Over time, I've developed a different view: New York City is a triumph of post-industrial reinvention, able to shed and quickly replace obsolete industries with those that would lead the future. And my idealized New York, I came to realize, was itself a snapshot of one lost New York, but not the only lost New York, just my romanticized etching of a city that has been in a constant state of reinvention for 400 years.It's through this same lens that we can view Silver Mountain. For more than a century, Kellogg was home to silver mines that employed thousands. When the Bunker Hill Mine closed in 1981, it took the town's soul with it. The city became a symbol of industrial decline, of an America losing its rough-and-ragged hammer-bang grit.And for a while, Kellogg was a denuded and dusty crater pockmarking the glory-green of Idaho's panhandle. The population collapsed. Suicide rates, Colburn tells us on the podcast, were high.But within a decade, town officials peered toward the skeleton of Jackass ski area, with its intact centerpole Riblet double, and said, “maybe that's the thing.” With help from Von Roll, they erected three chairlifts on the mountain and taxed themselves $2 million to string a three-mile-long gondola from town to mountain, opening the ski area to the masses by bypassing the serpentine seven-mile-long access road. (Gosh, can you think of anyplace else where such a contraption would work?)Silver rose above while the Environmental Protection Agency got to work below, cleaning up what had been designated a massive Superfund site. Today, Kellogg, led by Silver, is a functional, modern place, a post-industrial success story demonstrating how recreation can anchor an economy and a community. The service sector lacks the fiery valor of industry. Bouncing through snow, gifted from above, for fun, does not resonate with America's self-image like the gutsy miner pulling metal from the earth to feed his family. Town founder/mining legend Noah Kellogg and his jackass companion remain heroic local figures. But across rural America, ski areas have stepped quietly into the vacuum left by vacated factories and mines, where they become a source of community identity and a stabilizing agent where no other industry makes sense.What we talked aboutSki Idaho; what it will take to transform Idaho into a ski destination; the importance of Grand Targhee to Idaho; old-time PNW skiing; Schweitzer as bellwether for Idaho ski area development; Kellogg, Idaho's mining history, Superfund cleanup, and renaissance as a resort town; Jackass ski area and its rebirth as Silver Mountain; the easiest big mountain access in America; taking a gondola to the ski area; the Jackass Snack Shack; an affordable mountain town?; Silver's destination potential; 49 Degrees North; these obscenely, stupidly low lift ticket prices:Potential lift upgrades, including Chair 4; snowmaking potential; baselodge expansion; Indy Pass; and the Powder Alliance.What I got wrongI mentioned that Telluride's Mountain Village Gondola replacement would cost $50 million. The actual estimates appear to be $60 million. The two stages of that gondola total 10,145 feet, more than a mile shorter than Silver's astonishing 16,350 feet (3.1 miles).Why now was a good time for this interviewIn the ‘90s, before the advent of the commercial internet, I learned about skiing from magazines. They mostly wrote about the American West and their fabulous, over-hill-and-dale ski complexes: Vail and Sun Valley and Telluride and the like. But these publications also exposed the backwaters where you could mainline pow and avoid liftlines, and do it all for less than the price of a bologna sandwich. It was in Skiing's October 1994 Favorite Resorts issue that I learned about this little slice of magnificence:Snow, snow, snow, steep, steep, steep, cheap, cheap, cheap, and a feeling you've gone back to a special time and place when life, and skiing, was uncomplicated – those are the things that make [NAME REDACTED] one of our favorite resorts. It's the ultimate pure skiing experience. This was another surprise choice, even to those who named [REDACTED] to their lists. We knew people liked [REDACTED], but we weren't prepared for how many, or how create their affections were. This is the one area that broke the “Great Skiing + Great Base Area + Amenities = Favorite Resort” equation. [REDACTED] has minimal base development, no shopping, no nightlife, no fancy hotels or eateries, and yet here it is on our list, a tribute to the fact that in the end, really great skiing matters more than any other single resort feature.OK, well this sounds amazing. Tell me more……[REDACTED] has one of the cheapest lift tickets around.…One of those rare places that hasn't been packaged, streamlined, suburbanized. There's also that delicious atmosphere of absolute remoteness from the everyday world.…The ski area for traditionalists, ascetics, and cheapskates. The lifts are slow and creaky, the accommodations are spartan, but the lift tickets are the best deal in skiing.This super-secret, cheaper-than-Tic-Tacs, Humble Bro ski center tucked hidden from any sign of civilization, the Great Skiing Bomb Shelter of 1994, is…Alta.Yes, that Alta.The Alta with four high-speed lifts.The Alta with $199 peak-day walk-up lift tickets.The Alta that headlines the Ikon Pass and Mountain Collective.The Alta with an address at the top of America's most over-burdened access road.Alta is my favorite ski area. There is nothing else like it anywhere (well, except directly next door). And a lot remains unchanged since 1994: there still isn't much to do other than ski, the lodges are still “spartan,” it is still “steep” and “deep.” But Alta blew past “cheap” a long time ago, and it feels about as embedded in the wilderness as an exit ramp Chuck E. Cheese. Sure, the viewshed is mostly intact, but accessing the ski area requires a slow-motion up-canyon tiptoe that better resembles a civilization-level evacuation than anything we would label “remote.” Alta is still Narnia, but the Alta described above no longer exists.Well, no s**t? Aren't we talking about Idaho here? Yes, but no one else is. And that's what I'm getting at: the Alta of 2025, the place where everything is cheap and fluffy and empty, is Idaho. Hide behind your dumb potato jokes all you want, but you can't argue with this lineup:“Ummm, Grand Targhee is in Wyoming, D*****s.”Thank you, Geography Bro, but the only way to access GT is through Idaho, and the mountain has been a member of Ski Idaho for centuries because of it.Also: Lost Trail and Lookout Pass both straddle the Montana-Idaho border.Anyway, check that roster, those annual snowfall totals. Then look at how difficult these ski areas are to access. The answer, mostly, is “Not Very.” You couldn't make Silver Mountain easier to get to unless you moved it to JFK airport: exit the interstate, drive seven feet, park, board the gondola.Finally, let's compare that group of 15 Idaho ski areas to the 15 public, aerial-lift-served ski areas in Utah. Even when you include Targhee and all of Lost Trail and Lookout, Utah offers 32 percent more skiable terrain than Idaho:But Utah tallies three times more annual skier visits than Idaho:No, Silver Mountain is not Alta, and Brundage is not Snowbird. But Silver and Brundage don't get skied out in under 45 seconds on a powder day. And other than faster lifts and more skiers, there's not much separating the average Utah ski resort from the average Idaho ski resort.That won't be true forever. People are dumb in the moment, but smart in slow-motion. We are already seeing meaningful numbers of East Coast ski families reorient their ski trips east, across the Atlantic (one New York-based reader explained to me today how they flew their family to Norway for skiing over President's weekend because it was cheaper than Vermont). Soon enough, Planet California and everyone else is going to tire of the expense and chaos of Colorado and Utah, and they'll Insta-sleuth their way to this powdery Extra-Rockies that everyone forgot about. No reason to wait for all that.Why you should ski Silver MountainI have little to add outside of what I wrote above: go to Silver because it's big and cheap and awesome. So I'll add this pinpoint description from Skibum.net:It's hard to find something negative about Silver Mountain; the only real drawback is that you probably live nowhere near it. On the other hand, if you live within striking distance, you already know that this is easily the best kept ski secret in Idaho and possibly the entire western hemisphere. If not, you just have to convince the family somehow that Kellogg Idaho — not Vail, not Tahoe, not Cottonwood Canyon — is the place you ought to head for your next ski trip. Try it, and you'll see why it's such a well-kept secret. All-around fantastic skiing, terrific powder, virtually no liftlines, reasonable pricing. Layout is kind of quirky; almost like an upside-down mountain due to gondola ride to lodge…interesting place. Emphasis on expert skiing but all abilities have plenty of terrain. Experts will find a ton of glades … One of the country's great underrated ski areas.Some of you will just never bother traveling for a mountain that lacks high-speed lifts. I understand, but I think that's a mistake. Slow lifts don't matter when there are no liftlines. And as Skiing wrote about Alta in 1994, “Really great skiing matters more than any other single resort feature.”Podcast NotesOn Schweitzer's transformationIf we were to fast-forward 30 years, I think we would find that most large Idaho ski areas will have undergone a renaissance of the sort that Schweitzer, Idaho did over the previous 30 years. Check the place out in 1988, a big but backwoods ski area covered in double chairs:Compare that to Schweitzer today: four high-speed quads, a sixer, and two triples that are only fixed-grip because the GM doesn't like exposed high-elevation detaches.On Silver's legacy ski areasSilver was originally known as Jackass, then Silverhorn. That original chairlift, installed in 1967, stands today as Chair 4:On the Jackass Snack ShackThis mid-mountain building, just off Chair 4, is actually a portable structure moved north from Tamarack:On 49 Degrees NorthCMR Lands also owns 49 Degrees North, an outstanding ski area two-and-a-half hours west and roughly equidistant from Spokane as Silver is (though in opposite directions). In 2021, the mountain demolished a top-to-bottom, 1972 SLI double for a brand-new, 1,851-vertical-foot high-speed quad, from which you can access most of the resort's 2,325 acres.The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.

Kaj bi rekli, če bi vam povedal, da si lahko sami znižate tveganje, da kadarkoli zbolite za rakom, za 40%? Sliši se kot napihnjen uvod v reklamno sporočilo, v resnici pa gre za podatke Evropskega kodeksa proti raku. Z gostjo dr. Urško Ivanuš, specialistko javnega zdravja, ki se že desetletja ukvarja s preprečevanjem rakavih bolezni, sva najprej odgovorila na osnovna vprašanja o tej zahrbtni bolezni - kako nastanejo mutacije v celicah? In kako jih telo popravlja? Potem pa sva predstavila dvanajst priporočil Evropskega kodeksa proti raku in jih umestila v bolj praktičen, vsakdanji okvir. Od kajenja do prehrane, presejalnih programov, tipanja testisov, športa, počitka, slikanja pljuč in umetnosti lenarjenja.Zgibanko 12 nasvetov za boj proti raku najdeš na: https://www.protiraku.si/Portals/0/Zgibanka_12_Nasvetov_Proti_Raku.pdfBrezplačen svetovalni telefon za odvajanje od kajenja: 080 2777Zvezo Slovenskih združenj za boj proti raku najdeš na: https://www.protiraku.si/Današnja epizoda podkasta je nastala v sodelovanju z Ministrstvom za zdravje RS.

Z nami je bila Katarina Nzobandora iz Zavoda živim. Govorili smo o ranjenosti po izkušnji splava. Mnogokrat se v javnosti zmanjšuje pomen tega dejanja, pozabi na to, da ne umre le detece, ampak z njim tudi del materinega srca, naj si to prizna ali ne. Slišali smo, kako v Zavodu živim to izkusijo in kako pomagajo na poti okrevanja.

Join Jennifer Stats on the Life and Listings podcast as she dives deep into one of the most crucial tools in real estate—your CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system! Whether you're a seasoned pro or just getting started, this episode is packed with must-know tips on organizing your contacts, optimizing your database, and setting yourself up for long-term success—without the dreaded rework. If you've ever struggled to keep your leads, clients, and business data in check, this episode is for you! Listen in and take your real estate game to the next level!    “Most people have way too many custom fields and tags that they're utilizing in their system. So think about segmentation. Segmentation is something that we want to be able to put a chunk of people in. If a tag only is going to apply to one person, it's not a tag or custom field, it's a note. If it's something that you want to segment, so it's all of your buyers, all of your sellers, all of your SLI, all of I don't know some other group of people that you want to be able to segment everyone that's interested in a specific city that is a tag or a custom field.”   Key takeaways: Understanding CRMs and Their Importance – Explanation of what a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system is and why it's essential in real estate. Notes vs. Tags for Organization – Clarification on the difference between notes and tags, how to properly use them for segmentation. Consistency in CRM Usage – The importance of fully committing to a CRM, ensuring all contact details are correctly recorded. Updating CRM Information Regularly – Steps to keep contact details up to date, including adding new addresses after transactions. CRM Playbook Announcement – Introduction of the monthly playbooks, with a focus on the CRM Playbook.

Med komarji je samica tista, ki lovi. A kaj sploh vemo o živalci, ki se nepovabljena naseli tudi v naše domove? Ta nenavadna žuželka ima šest nog, glavo, oprsje in zadek, ki mu rečemo tudi trebuh, dve krili in rilček z bodalcem, s katerim samica piči in posesa kri svojih žrtev. Če samica vzame nekaj kapljic naše krvi, to ni zato, da bi potešila svoj tek, temveč zato, da ustvari jajčeca, preden jih odloži v vodo. Težava je v tem, da pri prehajanju s telesa na telo samica prenaša nekatere zelo nevarne bolezni. Samci komarjev se tako kot čebele in metulji hranijo s cvetličnim nektarjem in tako s prenašanjem cvetnega prahu, opraševanjem, omogočajo razmnoževanje rastlin. Poleg tega življenje komarjev ni brez tveganja, saj so prava poslastica za pajke, kačje pastirje, lastovke, kuščarje in netopirje. Slišite ta nadležni zvok? Gospa komarjeva se skriva med pastmi, ki jih nastavlja pajek, in roko, ki maha okoli nje ... Bo naša samica komarja na koncu sploščena kot palačinka?Le Moustique : l'aventurière mal-aimée Avtorji literarnih del: Isabelle Collombat (1, 5, 6, 7), Alice Butaud (2,3,10) in Gwénael David (4,8,9)Avtorica prevoda: Anamarija Štukelj CusmaRežiserka: Saška RakefIgralca: Blaž Šef in Anja NovakMojstri zvoka: Urban Gruden (1-10), Sonja Strenar (6,7,9), Matjaž Miklič (10)Urednik oddaj: Alen JelenOdgovorna urednica: Ingrid Kovač BrusLektorice: Tinka Kos, Katarina Minatti, Saša GrčmanFonetičarka: Mateja Juričan Serija Zverinice (v izvirniku Bestioles) je nastala v koprodukciji s francoskim javnim radiem Radio France, ki jo je pripravil v sodelovanju z Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle (francoski Narodni prirodoslovni muzej v Parizu).

Deca se rađaju čista, neiskvarena, nevina, želimo da što duže ostanu takva, bez obzira na iskušenja i udarce društva u kojem živimo, pričaju u novoj Mamazjaniji, kantautorka Ana Štajdohar i muzičar i kompozitor Nikola Demonja, roditelji dvoje dece, devojčice Nije (10) i dečaka Lava (8). U varljivim vremenima, u kojima živimo, Ana i Nikola ističu da sve što kao odrasli ljudi i roditelji radimo, u borbi za bolje društvo, je zbog budućnosti naše dece, koja će u tom slučaju možda ipak ostati ovde jednog dana, pa nećemo svi biti „skajp i vajber“ roditelji. „Naše društvo nije pleme, kako neki vole da ga predstavljaju i to treba da pokažemo deci, da znaju da i ovde može da se ceni pristojnost, lepo vaspitanje, obrazovanje. Lakše je kontrolisati pleme, zato nas i prikazuju takvima, ali to je daleko od istine, što nam poslednjih nedelja dokazuju neka malo starija deca, koju bezrezervno podržavamo“, priča Nikola. Svi se rađamo nevini, neiskvareni, ali, slažu se oboje, društvo je takvo, da roditelji strepe još i pre rođenja deteta, kako će se oni sa njim, a i ono samo snaći u vrtlogu u kojem živimo. „Suočavanje sa porodilištem je prvi udar, potom ako se dete prehladi, razboli sledi borba sa lekarima i zdravstvenim sistemom, zatim ide upis u vrtić i liste čekanja, onda problemi u školi, nasilje. Sve su to izazovi sa kojima se roditelji nose, a ako sistem ne funkcioniše, nemaju kome da se obrate za pomoć i to je najteže od svega“, kaže Ana. Veruju ipak, da bez obzira na okolnosti, deca najviše uče i „upijaju kao sunđeri“ u porodici, od roditelja, i da je njihov model najznačajniji, ono što govore, a pre svega, rade i pokazuju im kako treba. To je ono što im se ureže u svest i postaje vodilja u godinama koje dolaze. „Želimo da naša deca znaju šta je čežnja, koja se u ovim vremenima izgubila, da znaju kako je kad se čeka, to je ionako nešto najlepše. Ćerka je, recimo, poslednja u njenom razredu dobila mobilni telefon. Na to smo se odlučili jer nismo želeli da bude izopštena, ali ja sam dugo odolevao i možda bih i dalje da Ana nije popustila. Sa telefonom se međutim izgubila kreativnost, pa dok naš sin za dve nedelje uradi desetine crteža, ona gleda u monitor poput svojih vršnjaka, što je neminovno“, priča Nikola. Uče decu da kažu „izvini“, da priznaju kad pogreše, da znaju da nije uvek, i ne treba da bude, sve dostupno, da nekad nešto mora da se preskoči, da se zaželi. „Danas je deci, i ljudima generalno, sve dostupno i nema više ni čekanja, ni želja. Učimo decu da znaju da nije uvek tako jer nikad se ne zna šta ih u životu čeka. Ipak, ne želimo ni da ih čeličimo, u smislu da ih pripremamo za borbu, jer se nadamo da jednog dana ljudi ovde više neće misliti o politici, već da će najveći problem za roditelje biti, koje boje da budu patike koje detetu kupuju“, pričaju uglas. Slični stavovi, ciljevi, zanimanja, ali i to što su oboje imali bezbrižno detinjstvo sa, kako kažu, divnim roditeljima, uputilo ih je jedno na drugo, a onda su i decu dobili, baš onako kako su zamislili. „Nije slučajno da smo se nas dvoje našli, jer imamo mnogo sličnosti. Kad sam razmišljao o deci, uvek sam želeo devojčicu, a posle i dečaka, i Ana ih je baš tim redom i rodila. Kad uveče, ponekad, legnu između nas da spavaju, osećamo da je to ono pravo, da smo potpuni“, zaključuje uz osmeh Nikola.

Zdravo. Tokrat se posvetimo izumom prihodnosti, kot je telesni optimizator, še pred tem pa se spomnimo teksta popevke skupine Power Dancers, pozdravimo sončni november in se sprašujemo, če bi bile mogoče bolje kostanjeve, kot krompirjeve počitnice, glede na to, da se vsi spomnimo, da se krompir ne pobira konec oktobra ali začetek novembra. Mimo Darwinovih nagrad preidemo na tretje življensko obdobje, humor v težkih situacijah, staranje, pesmi, ki se zataknejo v glavi in kako jih je težko spraviti iz glave, še posebej če spiš. Nekaj malega o 4. poglavju 6. knjige uspemo spraviti skupaj, preden se spomnimo druge pesmi Poverk, ki pa govori o tem, da si ti bomba!

I had two messages come in about Gretna Green after I mentioned it in episode #671. Shel O'Toole wrote: "Hi Marc, It was interesting to hear you refer to Gretna Green.  My knowledge of it was as a place people eloped to.  A quick search of Google confirmed my memories.  It was interesting to discover Gretna is a town built during World War 1. The village of Gretna Green is still thriving and it sounds like a great place to visit. It is certainly on my list of places to visit should I get to fulfill my dream of going to Scotland. I discovered in the past couple of years my maternal grandmother's family is from Ayrshire in Scotland.  They came from a village called Coylton.
