“Lost Boys Found” is an ongoing, interdisciplinary project that is collecting, recording and archiving the oral histories of the Lost Boys/Girls of Sudan. The collection is a work-in-progress, seeking to record the oral history of as many Lost Boys/Girls as are willing, and will be used in a future book.Age: 37Region: Southern SudanThis picture and bio was donated to the "Lost Boys Found" oral history project from The Arizona Lost Boys Cente

Vuk and Georgi: An adventure into active systems via mechatronics, robotics and manufacturing engineering
Dimirovski, Georgi M. (Dogus Author) -- Conference full title: 2013 IEEE 11th International Symposium on Intelligent Systems and Informatics (SISY) 26-28 Sept. 2013, Subotica, SerbiaThe last century's ending quarter was marked by an dramatically dynamic development of new technologies and practical realizations of diverse technical constructions in various fields of engineering, in general, and in robotics, in particular. However, such growth of new technological achievements was not accompanied always with the necessary caution steps and protection measures against possible breakdown and destructions, which in specific cases and under certain conditions could be disastrous. In this talk commemorating Academician Vukobratovic and drawing from his endeavors on the so-called active systems and research he shared with me as well as our academic cooperation during the last decade of his active work, while examining some advantages, his merits for the entire field are pointed in here out to the best author's abilities. Some active systems such as adaptation for active noise and machine vibration control via active damping by force feedback as well as mobile robotic unmanned air and underwater vehicles as well as platoon of ground vehicles are note considered. Rather focus is put on active controls of earthquake induced vibrations and high-rise structures, manufacturing processes, wheeled mobile manipulators and walking humanoid robots are discussed in more detail while on homing missiles are only mentioned. In due course, some solutions to contact task in dynamic environment that are linked with active systems are also touched upon

Demand for Labour on Local Labour Markets
This paper presents some of the findings of a recently conducted survey on the state and the future development prospects of labour markets in the municipalities of the towns of Vratsa and Montana. The possibilities and attitudes of employers in both municipalities with regard to creating and sustaining jobs, as well as their potential to provide professional training and retraining to the workforce they have recruited or are planning to recruit are analyzed and assessed.
The Pension Reform in Bulgaria – First Assessments and Results
A Code for Mandatory Social Security came into power from the beginning of the year 2000. In practice it sets the start of the pension reform in Bulgaria. It is outside the aims and tasks of this article to show the long way of development of the Strategy for Reform of Social Security and of its legislative framework. However the months that passed from the beginning of the reform give the possibility for analysis and assessment of its first results. This is the main aim of this article – to present the assessments of two of the cornerstone sides involved in the pension reform – the population and the experts in this area.
Social Disparities Among the Municipalities-Situation and Ghanges
The goal of the present study is to determine, analyse and evaluate The situation and the development of the social disparities among The Bulgarian municipalities, and thus to prove the abilities of the Suggested model to guantify the social and economic disparities. The concrete research objectives include: • Analysis and evaluation of the ranking and differentiation of municipalities acoording to social indicators for 1994 and 1996; • Analysis and evaluation of the dynamics the changes in the ranking and differentiation of the municipalities during the studied period; • Summary and conclusions about the situation and the changes the social disparities among the municipalities. The study is done in static and in dynamic aspect, by implementing the deductive approach.
Political Context of the Pension Reform and the Relation "Research - Politics"
The relation between politics and research in the social field, between researchers and politicians has not been specially studied and evaluated in Bulgarian literature for the last years. This is still "a white spot" which is even more striking on the background of enlarging and deepening interest in the topic by academic circles outside Bulgaria. The main objective of the paper is to explain the political context that made possible the pension reform and that opened a wider "political window" for researchers and the practical application of their professional experience and research results.
