Andrej Reiner: Dad...

The last tales from a doctor – the author of radio and TV broadcasts and the moderator of popular programs about health. This man has died tragical in the U.S.A. in Florida in an age of 55 years. His short stories inwrought with photos of himself and the places he visited are in point of fact dialogs with his daughter Zuzana. They had together a relationship that many of us can be jealous of. They had no secrets between themselves and they talked together about everything – about luck and wealth, snobbery and hatefulness, computers and sex appeal, wellness and poverty, fashion and luxury and even about emancipation. In a word – they talked about life itself, life in his whole perplexity and beauty.

Revolutionary Road

The movie Revolutionary Road looks a lot like the with Oscars crowned film American Beauty. Here we can see how even the simplest American dream – a satisfied family life in a house in the suburbs - isn’t working. Frank and April Wheeler are a young married couple. They are living a not much exciting life of the middle class exactly like their neighbors but they are feeling that they don’t belong here. April is not attracted by the idea of the housekeeper and the nursemaid of her own children. She wants to become an actress and she is trying to convince her husband Frank to move to Paris because she feels she can self-realize here. And Frank is also not happy with his career as an office rat but instead of dreaming of Paris he drinks a lot and flirts with his secretary. As they unit dreams and hopes are shattered, their relationship is shattered too. Their only way back to the top is a radical solution. But at first they have to find the strength to do it. Without the strength their relationship is doomed to annihilation. This movie is the adaption of the same-named book from Richard Yates. The book was rated as one of the best 100 English books and many hope that the movie will be as good as the book, maybe even better.

Bratislava is greatly influenced by the natural features of its territory. The natural environment of the city has excellent recreational potential, in particular thanks to the Little Carpathian forests to the north of the city and the Danube watercourse in the south. There are around four thousand hectares of green areas in the city, three quarters of which can be found in Bratislava forest park - Lesopark, which offers plentiful space for relaxation, regeneration and hiking and sporting activities.
There are 110 square metres of inner-city greenery per person living in Bratislava. The many public parks in the city are extremely popular, especially Horský Park and Sad Janka Kráľa. The latter, which once carried the name Aupark, is situated on the south bank of the Danube and was established in 1775, making it one of the oldest municipal parks in Europe. Bratislava is an environmentally aware city. Household waste in Bratislava is dealt with using a state-of-the-art incinerator, which satisfies the strict EU emission limits from 2006.

SDKÚ claims Environment Ministry sold emission quotas cheaply
The Environment Ministry has sold quotas for 10 to 15 million tonnes of environmental emissions for a significantly lower price than the Czech Republic and Ukraine, said opposition SDKÚ-DS MP Ivan Mikloš at a press conference on Monday, April 20, the TASR newswire reported.
Mikloš said that SDKÚ-DS has been trying for several months to find out how the tender for the sale of the quotas was organised, but hasn't managed to do so.
“This tender was not posted even on a (ministry) bulletin board,” said Mikloš, referring to the tender at the Construction Ministry that led to the resignation of former minister Marian Janušek on April 14.
According to Mikloš, Ukraine sold its surplus quotas to the Japanese government for €10 per tonne, while the Czech Republic sold them to the same customer for €9 per tonne. Slovakia sold its units to a private company that was set up shortly before the transaction took place, TASR wrote.
