On June 26 1945, 75 years ago the United Nations Charter was signed, conceiving the United Nations organization as a means of saving the succeeding generations from the scourge of war. Having just lived through the hell and destruction of world war, the representatives of states signing the charter called for the maintenance of international peace and security, promote social and economic progress and better standards of living; strengthen international law; and promote human... rights. The UN Charter is the cornerstone of international law and sets goals and principles still just as relevant and important today as they were at the inception. You can view the message of global leaders, among them Slovenian minister of foreign affairs dr. Anže Logar, on the importance of the Charter today at https://www.un.org/pga/74/un-charter-day/ - where you can also follow the UN celebration, starting at 9 am EST (NY time). ************************************ 26. junija 1945, pred 75. leti je bila podpisana Ustanovna listina Združenih narodov, s katero je bila ustanovljena OZN kot sredstvo za obvarovanje prihodnjih generacij pred grozotami vojne. Ker so živeli skozi pekel in unienje druge svetovne vojne, so predstavniki držav, ki so podpisali Ustanovno listino pozvali k ohranjanju mednarodnega miru in varnosti, promociji gospodarskega in socialnega napredka in boljšim življenjskim standardom, krepitvi mednarodnega prava in promociji lovekovih pravic. Ustanovna listina je temeljni kamen mednarodnega prava in postavlja cilje in naela, ki so prav tako relevantni danes, kot so bili ob njihovem nastanku. Sporoila voditeljev, med njimi slovenskega ministra za zunanje zadeve dr. Anžeta Logarja o pomenu Ustanovne listine danes si lahko ogledate na https://www.un.org/pga/74/un-charter-day/, kje si lahko ogledate tudi obeležitev, z zaetkom ob 9h EST (NY as, oziroma ob 15h v Sloveniji).

Loyalty, longing and belonging to an Ideal of Oneness and Adoration. Captured by effortless Beauty, drawn into the feeling of Freedom by fresh dynamic thrill of inspiration and everlasting connection between two Souls loving their Springtime moment that has the power of Unlimited desire. The magic that changes the world is in One hug from the whole Heart. Love is that Ultimate power that makes the difference. We have nothing to say when we speak sincerely from our Hearts. Hearts of Arts. (Choreographer: Valentina Turcu; Dancers: Sytze Jan Luske and Monja Obrul) #slovenia29 #ifeelslovenia

SILENCE In Memory of What is Yet to Come + Tractus On 19 March 2016, 13-year-old David Tomaži from the Šmartno pri Litiji Primary School launched a home-made weather balloon with the help of his father and friends. David found the sponsors for his project himself, acquired all the necessary permits and equipped the balloon with a camera, a GPS and measuring devices. The balloon rose 27 kilometres high, all the way to the stratosphere, before it blew up in the thinned air.... David published the spectacular footage of the balloon’s flight online. He called the project Tractus. David Tomaži: "This has always been my thing, I’d like to travel into space in search of other planetary systems, other planets. I’d like to see living organisms on other planets, if they exist. I’d like to live in a future where the environment is more valued, where people are more aware of its importance, where nations don’t compete among themselves, but are friendly, help each other and create together, in space and on land." The footage of the balloon’s flight was included in the programme of the state ceremony to mark Slovenia’s Independence and Unity Day in December 2017. The song In Memory of What is Yet to come of the Slovenian group Silence was performed by the RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra. **************************** V spomin tistemu, kar se še ni zgodilo + Tractus 19. marca 2016 je David Tomaži, 13-letni uenec Osnovne šole Šmartno pri Litiji, s pomojo oeta in pešice prijateljev v nebo spustil doma izdelan vremenski balon. David je sam nabral sponzorje za projekt, pridobil vsa potrebna dovoljenja, balon pa opremil s kamero, GPS modulom in merilnimi napravami. Balon se je, preden je podlegel razredeni atmosferi, vzpel vse do startosfere, na višino 27 kilometrov. Spektakularni posnetek njegovega leta je David objavil na spletu. Projekt je poimenoval Tractus. David Tomaži: "Že od nekdaj se vidim v tem, rad bi potoval po vesolju, šel bi iskat druge planetne sisteme, planete. Rad bi videl, kakšni so organizmi na drugih planetih, e so, e obstajajo. Rad bi živel v prihodnosti, kjer je okolje bolj pomembna vrednota, se ga bolj zavedamo, narodi med samo ne tekmujejo, so prijateljski, si pomagajo, skupaj ustvarjajo vesoljske in druge dosežke." Posnetek poleta balona je bil del programa državne proslave ob dnevu samostojnosti in enotnosti decembra 2017. Pesem V spomin tistemu, kar se še ni zgodilo (In Memory of What is Yet to Come) slovenske skupine Silence je izvedel simfonini orkester RTV Slovenije.
