Using SWMM 5.1 (Storm Water Management Model) software, a model of sewage system functioning in Głogów was developed. It was calibrated based on the results of field studies from the years 2011– 14, while the properness of its activity was verified for the results of measurements carried out during the period 1998–2000. The verification of the model showed acceptable discrepancies between the measured and simulated values of channel depth. Factors which caused differences were indicated and, on the basis of this, conclusions pertaining to further studies were formulated.

 Publicado em 1963, o livro Luuanda, de José Luandino Vieira apresenta três contos marcados pela oralidade do povo angolano. A obra tem o intuito de dar representatividade aos musseques, áreas periféricas onde se abrigam pessoas deslocadas da urbe, além de dar voz a esses indivíduos que vivem à margem. O conto traz como protagonistas duas personagens com vida relegada à miséria, um jovem sem perspectiva de vida e sua avó representando a força materna. Luandino tinha por intenção mostrar as fronteiras geográficas não somente físicas, mas também culturais entre dois polos distintos em Angola: o espaço do colonizador e do colonizado. É uma obra nacionalista e de cunho crítico-social, com os olhos voltados para aqueles que resistem às injustiças de uma comunidade marcada pela colonização. Com isso, busca-se fazer uma análise crítico-interpretativa do conto “Vavó Xíxi e seu neto Zeca Santos” pelo viés da Geografia Humanista Cultural que estuda o ser-estar-no-mundo, de modo a constatar a percepção da paisagem através de elementos simbólicos. Com base na liberdade da literatura em elucidar vários aspectos do ser humano, tanto particular como social, a literatura se propõe a dialogar com a geografia. Nesta análise, a geografia ratifica o seu discurso quando da influência do meio no psicológico do homem, ou seja, a sua relação com a Terra.  Portanto, o conto de Luandino Vieira é um importante instrumento de identificação cultural como símbolo de resistência que referencia a vida nos musseques - espaço de interação de pessoas invisíveis.Palavras-chave: Literatura. Geograficidade. “Vavó Xíxi e seu neto Zeca Santos”.Life in the Musseques: Geograficity in “Vavó Xíxi and her grandchild Zeca Santos” ABSTRACTPublished in 1963, the book Luuanda, by José Luandino Vieira presents three tales marked by the orality of the Angolan people. The work aims to give representation to the musseques, peripheral areas where displaced persons of the city are housed, and to give voice to those individuals who live on the margin. The story brings as protagonists two characters who have a life relegated to misery, a young man without perspective of life and his grandmother representing the maternal strength. Luandino had the intention to show geographical frontier not only physical, but also cultural between two distinct poles in Angola, the space of the colonizer and the colonized. It is a nationalistic and critical-social work so that the eyes are turned to those who resist the injustices of a colonized community. With this, it seeks to make a critical-interpretative analysis of the tale “Vavó xíxi and her grandchild Zeca Santos” by the bias of the Cultural Humanist Geography that studies being-and-being in the world and verify the perception of the landscape through symbolic elements. For it is on the basis of the freedom of literature to elucidate various aspects of the human being, both private and social, that literature dialogues with geography. In this analysis, geography ratifies his discourse in the influence of the environment on the psychological of man, that is, his relationship with the Earth. Therefore, the tale of Luandino Vieira is an important instrument of cultural identification as a symbol of resistance that references life in the musseques - space of interaction of invisible people.Keywords: Literature. Geograficity. “Vavó xíxi and her grandchild Zeca Santos”.

Rasulullah saw. had informed muslims about the occurrences that will befall mankind on their way to the end of time, including the evil disasters that will hit the earth, kill, and destroy the human being. As a muslim, there is no word except that we believe in the occurrences and phases of the journey towards the end of the time. This study aimed to explain one of the occurrences of the journey towards the end of time that befall the world and mankind today, which is one of the deadly infectious outbreaks so-called coronavirus or covid-19, which has destroyed many people, imprisoned people in cities and countries, and caused various disasters and havocs as the result of the outbreak. The research method used was library research which was through a literature review related to the research. The results showed that the information of the journey towards the end of time would appear one by one in the range of human life, how they live, so thus Allah swt. shows them the meaning of the age they lived in. The worse human life is, the more Allah swt. show the badness of that era to the point where it is rampant engulfing the world and mankind, even though among those times are pious people, whether in an Islamic country or groups. Muslims are encouraged to follow the Shari'a when an epidemic strikes a country, namely: 1) not entering a country affected by disaster; 2) close the container where the water is; 3) pray a lot and recite; and 4) living in the city of Medina; stay indoors. Finally, the effects of the plague at the end of time are: 1) the number of sudden deaths; and 2) humans are isolated.

The main goal of this paper is to point out the power of the alternative and independent theatre in changing society, based on the scientific research of prof, dr Milena Dragićević-Šešić. The first part of the paper offers deliberations on the theories of reflection and shaping of Victoria de Alexander, according to which art and theatre always reflect social events. In the second part of the paper, we will analyse the work of independent theatre troupes (Dah teatar, Mim Art.) during the nineties, and their resistance to the regime of Slobodan Milošević - a significant contribution to the struggle for freedom of thought and the right of every human being to take to the streets freely. And the streets were indeed cordoned by police during the student and civil protests. This paper wants to point out the importance of the applied theatre for spreading of culture and the influence of the theatre on the audiences. The work was written based on the sociological theories of art of Victoria de Alexander, the theory of applied theatre by August Boal, and also the studies of dr Milena Dragićević Šešić: Art and Alternative, Culture of Resistance and Indian Theatre.

Abstract The article deals with water management complexes, including hydraulic structures and reservoirs. The purpose of the study is to identify the attractiveness, significance and potential of such complexes as objects of recreational and ecological tourism. The analysis of unique hydrotechnical objects of different countries of the world is carried out. The features of their designs and ways to increase the attractiveness of objects for tourists are shown. The simplest and most common method of increasing the recreational potential of a water management facility is the arrangement of species sites. It is much less common to arrange organized recreation areas for participants of the natural tourism route using hydraulic structures or separate entertainment attractions for tourists. Significantly more complex complexes with the inclusion of high-and medium-pressure dams are typical for recreational park areas. A separate group includes objects that serve as historical and educational sites or monuments of history, culture and technology. Thus, the analysis revealed a wide variety of uses of hydrotechnical objects as attractive places for recreation and eco-tourism. The conclusion is made about the expediency of the development of the considered areas of use of water management complexes.

Clean water is a vital element for survival of any living creature and, thus, crucially important to achieve largely and economically for any nation worldwide. However, the astonishingly fast trend of industrialization and population growth and the arisen extensive water pollutions have challenged access to clean water across the world. In this regard, 1.6 million tons of dyes are annually consumed. Thereof, 10%–15% are wasted during use. To decolorize water streams, there is an urgent need for the advanced remediation approaches involving utilization of novel materials and technologies, which are cost and energy efficient. Nanomaterials, with their outstanding physicochemical properties, can potentially resolve the challenge of need to water treatment in a less energy demanding manner. In this review, a variety of the most recent (from 2015 onwards) opportunities arisen from nanomaterials in different dimensionalities, performances, and compositions for water decolorization is introduced and discussed. The state-of-the-art research studies are presented in a classified manner, particularly based on structural dimensionality, to better illustrate the current status of adsorption-based water decolorization using nanomaterials. Considering the introduction of many newly developed nano-adsorbents and their classification based on the dimensionality factor, which has never been employed for this sake in the related literature, a comprehensive review will be presented.

The fast urbanization in many regions of the world has generated a high competition between cities. In the race for investments and for international presence, some cities have increasingly resorting to the territorial marketing techniques like city branding. One of the strategies of recent years has been to use of creativity and / or labeling of creative city for the promotion of its destination. This phenomenon raises a question whether the city branding programs have worked in accordance with the cultural industries of the territory or if such labels influence the thought of tourists and locals. This paper begins by placing a consideration of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network (UCCN) and the strategies of the Territorial Marketing Program of the city of Lyon in France, Only Lyon. It also raises the question the perception of the target public to each of the current actions through semi-structured interviews which were applied between May and August 2015. Finally, I will try to open a discussion the brand positioning adopted by the city of Lyon
