Pravci razvoja suvremenog turizma – pretpostavke za održivi turizam u Hrvatskoj

Abstract: Sažetak Turizam je postao najmasovnij a pojava u svjetskim relacij ama: nudi nove destinacij e i nove oblike aranžmana, traži nove oblike organizacij e, resurse i strategij e. Suvremeni turisti teže novim oblicima turizma, koji imaju kompenzacij ski efekt u odnosu na suvremeni dinamični ritam življenja.

Svjetska turistička organizacij a (UNWTO) razvila je djelotvornu tehnologij u razvoja sustava pokazatelja održivosti turizma na razini destinacij e, koji pomaže planiranju i evaluacij i svih aspekata održivog turizma na razini različito velikih prostornih jedinica.

Samoregulacija: Čarobni štapić ili uzaludni trud?

Abstract: Mass media is responsible for published materials while journalists are responsible for their articles and other news material. But, instead of regulating it by law, rules, regulations or similar measures that any country can undertake, it is the best to leave journalism to the people from the profession who will, through self-regulation, introduce a fundamental code of conduct, ethics and professional standards. That is how one of the fundamental forms of self-regulation was founded: the Press Council. At the moment, such councils act in twenty countries of the European Union and in forty-seven counties of the Council of Europe. This year’s meeting of The Alliance of Independent Press Councils of Europe (AIPCE) has strengthened a need for such bodies even in countries in which they do not exist and confirmed how successful and affective they are.

The influence of impact load on torsional dynamics of generator units

Abstract: The paper analyses the dynamics of generator-units, as well as induction motors during impact loads Mathematical model of integral motor drives consisting of: diesel engine, synchronous generator and motor drives has been developed The aim is to compare torsional dynamics during direct-on-line starting of induction motors with changing loads

The social aspect of the investment effectiveness analysis

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to highlight and to point out the importance of the evaluation of the investment project regarding the social aspect. The authors explore aspects of social cost-effectiveness assessment of the investment project, i.e. the impact of the investment on the overall economy, which depends heavily on the size and nature of the project and the amount of funds involved. This is why it is necessary to create economic and financial evaluation of investment projects from the viewpoint of society, or total economy, with special emphasis on the analysis and evaluation of the contribution of investment to regional development. Methodological planning and evaluation of return on investment, with special emphasis on the socio-economic dimension of investment, in the paper and associated with that considers the problems of divergence of private and social costs. The paper also points to the importance of a clear definition of the overall investment project in the very beginning of its economic and financial analysis, which is crucial for a proper assessment of the social effectiveness due to "cover up" social benefits and costs that may not be subject of direct trade off. The basic hypothesis of the paper stems from the stated and can be explicated as: adequate analysis and assessment of the social aspect of the effectiveness PROJECT MANAGEMENT 792 of the investment project significantly contributes to the regional economic development.

Effects of low levels of mannanoligosaccharides in feed on growth and intestinal salmonella reduction in juvenile rainbow trout (Ocorhynchus mykiss)

Abstract: Low levels of added mannanoligosaccharides (MOS) in the feed for juvenile rainbow trout significantly promote growth rate, food conversion and overall culture results. Three levels of added MOS: 0.05%, 0.10% and 0.15% were incorporated in commercial pelleted feed and fed three and later two times per day. The experiment started with juveniles of 48±2.1 grams and lasted 90 days. The best growth result was obtained with the smallest (0.05%) MOS level, if compared to the control group and 0.1% and 0.15% MOS supplemented feed. The growth was improvedby11.5% with 0.05% MOS. The best feed conversion ratio (FCR) of 1.29 was found with 0.05% MOS supplement compared to 1.54 in the control group. FCR in 0.1% and 0.15% MOS treatments was 1.46, also significantly better than in the control group. The experiment shows that 0.05% MOS in trout feed is not fully successful in total elimination of salmonella colonies from fish intestine. But this is achieved with 0.1% MOS after only 30 days of experiment. The results of experiment point that smaller levels of MOS, if compared to previous research, are beneficial for rainbow trout juvenile culture.
