The aim of paper is to analyze temporal and spatial changes in monthly precipitation as well as extremely dry and wet months in mountainous part of Bulgaria. Study precipitation variability in mountainous part is very important because this part is the region where the rivers take its source from. Extreme values of monthly precipitation are important information for better understanding of the whole variability and trends in precipitation time series. The mean investigated period is 1951-2005 and the reference period is so called temporary climate - 1961- 1990. Extreme dry precipitation months are defined as a month whose monthly precipitation is lower than 10% of gamma distribution in the reference period 1961-1990. Extreme wet months are determined with respect to 90% percentiles of gamma distribution (monthly precipitation is higher than 90%). The result of the research show that in mountainous part of Bulgaria during 1950s and 1960s number of extremely wet months is higher than number of dry months. Decreasing of monthly precipitation is a feature for 1980s. This dry period continues till 2004. The years 2000 makes impression as driest year in high mountains with about 7 extremely dry months. The second dry year is 1993. The negative precipitation anomaly is most clearly determined during last decade at study area. The present research points out that fluctuation of precipitation in mountainous part of Bulgaria are coinciding with regional and global climate trends.

In the actual process of ethno-national differentiation and confrontation before disintegration of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the ethnic community of Goranies presents itself as a factor of stabilization of ethnonational relations with a high level of civilized behavior and firm determination to share the fate of people in their country Serbia. Goranies constitute a relatively homogeneous ethno-demographic system of developed homeostatic distinctiveness whence a separate ethnic identity results. It was the basis for establishment of the ethnic community of Goranies, which has been created throughout a long anthropogeographicalethnopsychological process. Orthodox-Slav population was its starting point and foundation. Islamization of Goranies was completed in the mid18 century. By its cultural and ethno-psychical entity, the ethnic community of Goranies essentially differs from all Moslem populations in former Yugoslavia. In spite of all pressures exerted at the most difficult times of great historical changes and erosion of geographical space, Goranies resisted dangers and did not allow disassembly and disappearance of their ethno-demographic system. They sustained as a separate ethnic community because they were firmly connected with their native land and home. Ethno-cultural identity of Goranies was unquestionably sublimed into the category of a separate ethnic community according to a declaration about the national belonging and mother tongue made during the 1991 census. The ethnic community of Goranies is today fully integrated into the socioeconomic and political life of the Republic of Serbia. The fact of integration is reflected in the continuation of a separate territorial unity – the municipality of Gora. There are 95% of Goranies and 5% of other inhabitants in it. There is also an insignificant number of Albanians. Plans for development in all spheres of social life were made through institutions of the system of the Republic of Serbia

The subject of this paper regards the landfill of municipal and industrial waste in Loznica, actually its location and environmental hazards. The research was carried out in order to show the consequences of careless and incomplete evaluation of the conditions for a locating of a landfill in the example of Loznica. Besides the fact that it is located at the floodplain of the Drina River, the landfill is normally located to the direction of predominant wind, which has a significant influence on environmental dispersion processes. The landscape where the landfill is located has been impacted by flooded and groundwater and predominant wind, but on the other side, the environment has also been impacted by pollutants which come from the new system landscape-landfill. The results of the laboratory analysis help to target a gradual process of the soil contamination by heavy metals from the landfill, and to detect the general direction of contaminant migration, from southwest to northeast. Therefore, it is necessary to start working on recultivation and rehabilitation of the landfill and to begin with regional waste disposal. .

A gallery 'Milan Konjovic' in Sombor is a culture establishment in which there are exhibited works of a famous impressionist Milan Konjovic. It was opened in 1966 and it is placed in a Galley house, on the Square of Holy Three. Works of Milan Konjovic are presented by chronological productions and occasional thematic exhibitions, and a collection consists of 1060 works today. In order to notice the tourist importance of this establishment, in this work there will be done a SWOT analysis which will point to internal abilities and internal weakness on one hand and, on the other hand, there will be analyzed exterior possibilities and those are chances and threats from the surroundings. Considering the fact that conditions in our institutions of culture are on unsatisfactory level, in this paper two affirmed galleries in London will be presented: the Tate Gallery and the Tate Modern, which represent positive example of successful management in cultural institutions.

By establishing the National Council for the Geoheritage of Serbia, with 16 working groups and a large number of experts, and by involvement in the activities of the ProGEO - European Association for the Conservation of the Geological Heritage, a relatively new, interesting, and attractive activity filed was created in scope of the geo-professions, along with more favorable conditions and predispositions for a better organized approach and a more active relationship towards the geo-assets in our nature and for their more effective protection. Following the recommendation of the ProGEO - European Association for the Conservation of the Geological Heritage, the Project "Inventory of the Geoheritage Objects in Serbia" was launched, with the purpose to collect data on proposals for the geoheritage objects that reflect the most important moments in the development of the Earth's crust on the territory of Serbia, with a recommendation to protect representative examples of particular value and save them for future generations. The working groups for geomorphology and speleology have collected data for a wider list of objects that, according to any criterion, fulfill the minimal conditions to be included into the inventory of geoheritage objects (210+80), from 650 and enlisted in the Register of Protected Natural Heritage Assets of Serbia.

NUTS classification of territorial units is a framework for presenting a standardized statistical data in geographical areas throughout the European Union (EU). The main purpose of the NUTS classification of geographic areas is to provide a framework for collecting and publishing standardized statistical information, which can be used for the analysis, as well as a framework for European policy initiative. According to the NUTS classification geographic areas are divided according to different hierarchical levels: NUTS 1 is the largest territorial unit, which includes territorial group of 3 to 7 million inhabitants. NUTS 2 has a range of 800 thousand to 3 million and NUTS 3 has a range of 150 to 800 thousand inhabitants. Serbia has classified their regions according to NUTS 2 classification, because this classification is adequate for institutional support in Serbia. NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 classification are less applicable in Serbia due to inadequate institutional support, lack of political will or the high costs of regionalization.

Impressive preservation and maintenance of ethnic identity is the leading problem of ethnic and historical drama of Goranies. Through ethnic identity as a determination symbol, their ethnic borders and sovereignty are established. Four basic constitutive models: biological, social, existential and spiritual, which determine the ethnic community of an absolute type and special identity characterize the ethnic community of Goranies. We will try to sketch the theoretical premises in an attempt to comprehend their ethnic identity. This large and rather complex problem cannot be satisfactorily dealt with and explained if the two notions – ethnic identity and ethnic personality are not in advance clearly defined and confronted with each other because they overlap in practice. This narrow correlation is important in order to shape the picture of identity in general. Ethnic personality is a scheme of notion indicatively deduced from concrete data, which can be classified into two not very peculiar types. The first type of data originates from a directly observed behaviour held apart as something typical of the ethnic group of Goranies. Such behavior is not simply human in relation to the fact that elements of the entire possible human repertory it involves are used in a special way. The second type of actual data is connected with instantly observed verbal behavior that represents generalizations of the ethnic personality specified by informers, who behave like self-ethnographers, as De Vos and Romanucci-Ross formerly called them. When ethnic personality is consciously applied in behavior, there is an inclination to experience it as the application of that kind of the ethnic identity model which, if logically analyzed, is already infected by the ethnic personality model. In many cases, it is more difficult to recognize the rash, spontaneous actualization of a certain aspect of the ethnic personality as such than to recognize the very act by which it is consciously expressed.

Complex relationships, following from numerous and complex links between the social-economic factors and the natural advantages of the area (favorable positions of hills and valleys in the relief, availability of water and waterfowls, a moderate continental climate, and a great wealth of high-quality agricultural surfaces) are the basis for the development of the villages and of the agricultural production in the Ljig municipality. Research has been conducted with the purpose of showing, on the basis of available resources of the municipality, how the agriculture and village spaces could best be developed, towards an optimum; local marketable surpluses of farm products could be processed, industrially, for sale, and this means that the existing industrial capacities should be better used and new ones built. Also, the natural and human resources could be used in the servicing sector, and in other non-agricultural businesses. On the basis of analyzed factors, our results suggest that in the Ljig municipality, further development must be based on improvements in the rural zones as multifunctional and integral; these must serve for production, but also for social and cultural purposes. The farms should become economically stronger, and they should more elastically take part in the market economy, using an adequate combination of factors such as: natural resources, demographic processes, and connectedness by traffic infrastructure and other infra- and supra-structures.
