"WAVE" No.14
December 2007


Editorial

Dear friends,

one more year is closing to the end, we are only couple of weeks far from new 2008! The period behind us brought us many news on football. Unfortunately, not all of them were about sports but about gambling and suspicious bets on some matches, Italy faced with new wave of hooliganism and fights of fans and police, the same was in Belgrade football match... But also Euro 2008 qualifications are finished and we know who will play in Austria and Switzerland. It seems like football became much more than only a game and we could agree sometimes fair-play is not on the first place.

Starting with this month and our December issue, we keep improving WAVE magazine and we decided to refresh some pages more often. So, don't worry, monthly issues will be here like so far but there is a new section called "World News", and that will be daily updated with short forms, new information and interesting links. That means you will have more reasons to visit our website regularly and you don't have to wait so long for new topics. Anyway, it's a different kind of articles and we hope to get your feedback and comments on new section.

The most actual topic in the last period, so in our December issue also, was football and everything that was happening around: Euro 2008 qualifications, suspicious bets and gambling, hooliganism... Belgium is still in political crisis and we have an article from our colleague there. Also we covered Russian Parliamentary Elections and have interesting story after Argentina got the first woman for president! About women rights and gender equality more in Society section, as well as about Serbian traditional holidays and the future of mass media. The second PR Week was held in Belgrade at the end of November and in Culture you can find more about actual events around Europe this month. Web Fest was promoting internet and check out why iPhone is one of the most important technological inventions this year. Eventually, you can celebrate New Year on the famous Brazilian beach Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro!


Enjoy your reading!
