schools will be taught a foreign language
when the new school year begins on
September 1, the education ministry
announced this week, adding it would make
it compulsory for students to study two languages
from the moment they enter middleschool
(Gymnasium) around the age of 12.
Currently, ordinary state schools are
only obliged to teach kids a foreign language
from the fourth year of primary
school, although many private schools
and parents associations have organised
additional classes or resources to teach
children languages, especially English,
from the start of their schooling.
“We want all children to be able to speak
two foreign languages by the time they finish
school and for one of those languages
to be English,” Deputy Education Minister
Zbigniew Marciniak told a news conference
this week.
Palikot has brushed aside orders
to apologise for calling President
Lech Kaczyñski a “yob” (“cham” in
Polish), saying he will only say sorry to
Poles generally for having left them to
put up with such a president.
Civic Platform chiefs told Palikot to
apologise publicly after he said on Monday
that he viewed Kaczyñski as a yob for his
treatement of Foreign Minister Radoslaw
Sikorski in talks on locating a US missile
shield in Poland.
“It is indeed very upsetting, for me and
millions of Poles, that we have such a
president and I am prepared to apologise
to all Poles, because we should not have
him,” Palikot told TVN24 a day later,
maintaining that Kaczyñski’s behaviour
had been “yobbish” (“chamski”).
“Poland does not deserve a president
like this.”
He added that if Kaczyñski apologises to
Sikorski, he would apologise to the president.
A successful businessman before going
into politics, Palikot stirred controversy
early this year by suggesting Kaczyñski
may be an alcoholic or suffering from
Alzheimer’s. He also famously waved a
fake penis and a gun on television to illustrate
alleged sexual violence at a police station
in his native Lublin.
Recent months, however, have seen him
score political points with a campaign
against red tape, during which he has threatened
to break the law to show the absurdity
of state regulations. Analysts say his attacks
on the president may be part of attempts by
the Civic Platform to discredit Kaczyñski
ahead of presidential elections in 2010.
How are things going in Lublin? Did you get my email last week?
Exhibition Minimum-Maximum - Kurt Fleckenstein in Lublin/Poland
28.06.2008 16:13:45 Nine Artists have been invited to take part in the exhibition: Mirosław Bałka, Andrzej Bielawski, Jürgen Blum-Kwiatkowski, Paweł Dutkiewicz, Kurt Fleckenstein, Jerzy Kałucki, Mikołaj Smoczyński, Ewa Zawadzka, Tomasz Zawadzki
(live-PR.com) - BWA Gallery in Lubin is the art center of concretism in Poland. With the exhibition “Minimum-Maximum” the gallery director Andrzej Bielawsk wants to demonstrate that the genre of minimal art by far has has not come to an end but that the art of “achieving a lot with little” still enjoys great popularity among visual arts.
Andrzej Mroczek : What inspired me to make this exhibition was the canon of minimal art, well-known to me - 'less is more'. It was a starting point, a provocation to present, through an exhibition, such way of thinking about art and way of entering the area of it, that one will be able to see how a concept of an artwork turns into an object.
I asked artists, who, as I see it, reducing a form and making it monumental, resent all what is unnecessary ballast for the essence of art. Concentration on what is the most significant value for art, introduces us to the very core of its existence, the spirit of it. This gives an impulse, which moves mind and soul the same time becoming matter for creation the space of art as well as, mentioned earlier, togetherness of mind and soul. And occasion to touch together and getting deeper and deeper into 'universe of art'.
I am offering this exhibition for consideration, also dedicating it to all viewers, who in that togetherness want to participate and enrich it with their feelings.
Warsaw, Jun. 24, 2008 (CWNews.com) - Pro-life activists in Poland have called for the excommunication of the country’s health minister, Ewa Kopacz, who was involved in arranging an abortion for a 14-year-old girl.
Kopacz, who located a hospital willing to perform the abortion in the highly publicized case, has defended her action, saying: “As a government minister, I did my job.” She had located a willing hospital after institutions in the girl’s hometown, Lublin, and the capital city, Warsaw, had refused to perform the abortion.
“I don’t feel guilty,” Kopacz said. “Yesterday I was at church, so I have no reason to feel guilty.”
Others disagree. The Catholic magazine Fronda asked Bishop Zygmunt Zimowski of Radom to pronounce the excommunication of the health minister. And Archbishop Tadeusz Goclowski of Gdansk, where the abortion was eventually performed, said that everyone directly involved in the operation was “already excommunicated,” since the Code of Canon Law explicitly stipulates excommunication as the penalty for procuring an abortion. The canonical penalty is incurred latae sententiae-- that is, automatically, without the need for any formal announcement.
Father Piotr Kienewicz, a moral theologian at the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin, commented that even if the government supported abortion in this case, Kopacz could have resigned rather than locating a hospital to perform the operation. Because the health minister chose to aid in the abortion, he questioned whether her adherence to the Catholic faith is sincere. Moreover, because of the highly public nature of her action, Father Kienewicz said that Kopacz could not readily be absolved of her guilty. “Because her action was of a public nature, I do not believe in this case, confession and penance suffice,” he said.
