Editorial
Dear friends,
we hope
you had a nice time during holidays and we wish to you Happy New Year. Let 2009
be much better and happier than the last one, although predictions are not so
shiny. And the start wasn't very good with "best wishes from Gazprom"
and conflict in Eastern Europe that brought empty pipelines to the rest of the
continent. Solution to this conflict is the best prove that all the problems should
be solving with talks and negotiations instead of force or tough conditions.
That's why new year brings new arrangements to WAVE magazine. Our new partner
comes from Paris - and whole Europe - European online magazine Café Babel. Still
have to precise the deal, but it will surely be very positive step for both media.
Also we are starting with EU Youth in Action projects with our old partners from
Skopje, Macedonia and that means you will have more quality journalism in our
magazine.
Topic of the issue is for sure gas crisis and Russia-Ukraine
conflict. It's not the first time to get greeting card from Moscow, exactly for
New Year, and we remind you of that by republishing article from February 2007.
In Politics we bring you analysis on Serbian way towards European Union - first
part. Dutch DJs had a charity action, but in Society you will also find analytical
opinion on Youth and aggression. We announce to you International Student Week
in Ilmenau - ISWI 2009, and present to you our new partners Café Babel - European
online magazine. One more announcement comes about Belgrade Universiade. Financial
crisis is here but FIAT and Zastava reached an agreement that should start this
year. If you are more artistic, there is an article on Pixar cartoons, not only
for the children. Playwright Harold Pinter has died at the end of 2008 and we
bring you one inconvenient in memoriam. If you are tennis fan you will enjoy in
Science and Sport sections - scientists have been researching on optical illusion
and hawk eye system, and new season has started. If you think colours have influence
on your behaviour you are right. Ski fans will read about "Herminator"
from Austria - come back of Herman Maier. Finally, read on one more come back
- music of nineties and turbo folk are popular again.
Enjoy your
reading!
