American Bison

Bison are the iconic image of the Great Plains and the Old West. =
Bizoni su kultna slika Velike ravnice i Starog zapada.
They are massive, shaggy beasts and the heaviest land animals in North America. =
To su masivne, čupave zveti i najteže kopnene životinje u Severnoj Americi.
Despite their hefty size, bison are quick on their feet. =
Uprkos njihovoj veličini, bizoni su brzi na nogama.
When the need arises they can run at speeds up to 40 miles (65 kilometers) an hour. =
Kad se ukaže potreba, mogu trčati brzinom od 40 milja (65 kilometara) na sat.
Their curved, sharped horns can grow to be 2 feet (61 centimeters) long. =
Njihovi zakrivljeni, oštri rogovi mogu narasti do 2 stope (61 centimetar) dužine.
Females (cows) and adult males (bulls) generally live in small, separate bands and come together in very large herds during the summer breeding season. =
Ženke (krave) i odrasli mužjaci (bikovi) uglavnom žive u malim, odvojenim grupama i okupljaju se u veoma velika stada tokom letnje sezone parenja.
Males wage battles for mating rights, but such contests rarely turn dangerous. =
Mužjaci vode bitke za prava na parenje, ali takva takmičenja retko postaju opasna.
Females give birth to one calf after a nine-month pregnancy. =
Ženke rađaju jedno tele nakon devetomesečne trudnoće.
Bison once covered the Great Plains and much of North America, and were critically important to Plains Indian societies. =
Bizoni su nekada pokrivali Velike ravnice i veći deo Severne Amerike, i bili su od kritičnog značaja za Indijanska društva Ravnice.
During the 19th century, settlers killed some 50 million bison for food, sport, adn to deprive Native Americans of their most important natural asset. =
Tokom 19. veka doseljenici su ubili oko 50 miliona bizona zbog hrane, sporta i da bi lišili nativne Amerikance njihovog najvažnijeg prirodnog dobra.
The once enormous herds were reduced to only a few hundred animals. =
Nekada ogromna stada svela su se na samo nekoliko stotina životinja.
Today, bison numbers have rebounded somewhat, and about 200,000 bison live on preserves and ranches where they are raised for their meat. =
Danas se broj bizona donekle oporavio, a oko 200,000 bizona živi u rezervatima i rančevima na kojima se uzgajaju radi mesa.

Why cycle to work

Cycling to work „can cut risk of heart disease and cancer by a quarter”
Vožnja biciklom do posla „može da smanji rizik od srčanih bolesti i raka za četvrtinu“

A major study tracking more than 300,000 commuters has revealed that cycling to work can cut the risk of dying early from illnesses such as heart disease and cancer by up to 24 percent.
Velika studija koja je pratila više od 300.000 ljudi koji putuju na posao otkrila je da vožnja biciklom do posla može smanjiti rizik od ranog umiranja od bolesti kao što su bolesti srca i rak do 24 procenta.
Dr Richard Patterson from the Epidemiology Institute at the University of Cambridge, who led the research, hailed post-lockdown plans to dramatically increase numbers of cycle lanes and walking routes into city centers.
Dr Ričard Paterson iz instituta za epidemiologiju na Univerzitetu u Kembridžu, koji je vodio istraživanje, pozdravio je planove posle izolacije za veliko povećanje broja biciklističkih staza i pešačkih staza u centrima gradova.
He said the study demonstrates a large increase in active commutes – like cycling and walking – would have significant positive health impacts nationwide.
On je rekao da studija pokazuje da bi veliki porast aktivnih putovanja na posao – kao biciklizam i hodanje – imao značajan pozitivan uticaj na zdravlje širom zemlje.
The report was published, and the results were really interesting.
Izveštaj je objavljen, a rezultati su bili zaista zanimljivi.
It found that those who cycled to work had an overall 20 percent reduced rate of early death during the period, compared with drivers.
Utvrđeno je da su oni koji su vozili biciklu na posao imali ukupno 20 posto smanjenu stopu rane smrti tokom tog perioda u poređenju sa vozačima.
They saw a 24 percent reduced rate of death from cardiovascular disease – which includes heart attack and stroke – a 16 percent reduced rate of death from cancer, and an 11 percent reduced rate of a cancer diagnosis.
Videli su 24 posto smanjenu stopu smrti od kardiovaskularnih bolesti – što uključuje srčani uda i moždani udar – 16 posto smanjenu stopu smrti od raka i 11 posto smanjenu stopu dijagnoze raka.
Walking to work showed a less significant impact than cycling, but walking commuters studied still experienced a seven percent lower rate of cancer diagnosis compared to the people who drive.
Hodanje do posla pokazalo je manje značajan uticaj od vožnje bicikla, ali ispitanici koji putuju na posao i dalje su imali sedam posto nižu stopu dijagnoze raka u poređenju sa ljudima koji voze.
It also showed even taking the train rather driving lowers the risk of early death by 10 percent.
Takođe je pokazalo da čak i vožnja vozom, smanjuje rizik od rane smrti za 10 procenata.
Authors said the health benefits to commuting by train were not due to the number of accidents on the road, but were likely because people have to walk to and from train station.
Autori kažu da zdravstvene koristi od putovanja vozom nisu posledica broja nesreća na putu, već su verovatno zato što ljudi moraju da pešače do i od železničke stanice.
Londoners are currently being urged to avoid public transport and cycle or walk to work instead.
Londonci se trenutno pozivaju da izbegavaju javni prevoz i umesto toga voze biciklo ili pešače do posla.
Working with London’s boroughs, the programme will rapidly transform London’s streets to accommodate a possible ten-fold increase in cycling and five-fold increase in walking as lockdown restrictions are eased.
Radeći sa londonskim opštinama, program će se brzo transformisati londonske ulice kako bi se prilagodio mogućem desetostrukom povećanju vožnje biciklom i petostrukom povećanju pešačenja kako se restrikcije zaključavanja budu ublažavale.
Some other health experts have also praised the government for taking steps to encourage walking and cycling, which will increase the overall health of the population.
Neki drugi zdravstveni stručnjaci takođe su pohvalili vladu što je preduzela korake za podsticanje hodanja i vožnje bicikla, što će povećati opšte zdravlje stanovništva.

South Pole

Norvežanin Roald Amundsen I Englez Robert Falkon Skot žele da odu na Južni pol. Svako od njih želi da
bude prvi čovek na Južnom polu.
Norwegian Roald Amundsen and Englishman Robert Falcon Scott want to go to the South Pole. Each of
them wants to be the first man on the South Pole.
Početkom 1911. obe ekspedicije stižu na Antarktik. Pripremaju se mnogo meseci na obali.
At the beginning of 1911, both expeditions arrive at the Antarctic. They prepare for many months on the coast.
Kada se zima na Antarktiku završila, Amundsen i četvorica njegovih ljudi kreću na put do pola.
When the Antarctic winter ended, Amundsen and four of his men start the journey to the pole.
Imaju saonice koje vuku psi. Skot ima ponije. Amundsen kreće na putovanje 10 dana pre Skota.
They have sleighs pulled by dogs. Scott has ponies. Amundsen starts the journey 10 days before Scott.
14. decembra 1911. Amundsen stoji na Južnom polu. Njegov tim ostaje tamo 3 dana. Ostavlja šator sa
norveškom zastavom na banderi.
On December 14, 1911, Amundsen stands on the South Pole. His team stays there for 3 days. He leaves a
tent with the Norwegian flag on the pole.
Svi muškarci se bezbedno vraćaju na obalu. Prešli su 3000 km peške, a put je trajao 99 dana.
All the men return to the coast safely. They went 3000 km on foot and the journey took 99 days.
Skotova ekspedicija stiže do Južnog pola više od mesec dana kasnije, 17. januara 1912.
Scott’s expeditions arrives at the pole more than a month later on January 17, 1912.
Na žalost, na povratku ih je uhvatila jaka snežna oluja. Niko nije preživeo putovanje.
Unfortunately, they are caught in a bad snowstorm on the way back. Nobody survived the journey.

First plane

Dan kada je izumljen avion.
The day the plane was invented.
Ljudi su oduvek želeli da lete. U 18. veku je otkriveno da vreli vazduh ide gore i napravljen je prvi balon.
People have alwazs wanted to fly. In the 18th century, it was discovered, that hot air goes up and the first
balloon was made.
Prvi cepelin napravljen je 100 godina kasnije. Međutim, ljudi su želeli leteću mašinu koja može da leti
kao ptice.
The first zeppelin was made 100 years later. However, people wanted a flying machine that could fly like
birds.
Godine 1892, dva brata, Orvil i Vilbur Rajt, otvaraju prodavnicu bicikala u Sjedinjenim Državama.
In the year 1892, two brothers, Orville and Wilbur Wright, open a bicycle shop in the United States.
Zainteresovani su i za izgradnju prvog aviona.
They are also interested in building the first plane.
Njihov posao da biciklima je uspešan. Dakle, imaju novca i vremena da rade na svom snu.
Their business with bicycles is successful. So they have the money and time to work on their dream.
Oni testiraju 200 različitih tipova krila pre nego što konačno, posle 4 godine, pronađu pravi oblik.
They test 200 different types of wings before finally after 4 years they find the right shape.
Sa pravim krilima grade svoju prvu jedrilicu i lete sa njom.
With the right wings, they build their first glider and fly with it.
Nakon toga, mehaničar iz njihove radnje pravi poseban tip lakih motora.
After that, the mechanic from their store makes a special type of light engines.
Oni pričvršćuju motor i propelere na jedrilicu. Pokušavaju da lete sa njim, ali prvi let nije uspešan.
They attach the engine and propellers to the glider. They try to fly with it, but the first flight is not
successful.
17. decembra 1903. pokušavaju ponovo. Ovog puta su uspešni.
On December 17, 1903, they try again. This time they are successful.
Avion poleće i leti. Let traje 12 sekundi, a lete 36 metara. Braća su izuzetno srećna što mogu da lete.
The plane takes off and flies. The flight lasts 12 seconds and they fly for 36 meters. The brothers are very
happy because they are able to fly.

US imposes heavy tariffs on Serbia

Poslao je odvojena pisma na svom Truth Social profilu, lično obaveštavajući obe vlade o promenama.

From August 1, exports from Serbia to the U.S. will carry a 35 % tariff—because raspberries apparently need extra protection. =
Od 1. avgusta izvoz iz Srbije za SAD imaće carinu od 35 %—jer, izgleda, malinama treba dodatna zaštita.

Ove stope su blago smanjene u odnosu na aprilsku verziju—stopa za Srbiju je smanjena za 2 poena, a za Bosnu za 5 poena.

Trump framed the move as part of his broader “America First” trade crusade—because nothing says diplomacy like taxes. =
Tramp je ovaj potez predstavio kao deo svoje šire “Prvo Amerika” trgovinske krstaške misije – jer ništa ne kaže “diplomatija” kao povećani porezi.

The effective date of August 1st gives companies just weeks to adjust supply chains or raise prices on consumers. =
Datum stupanja na snagu je 1. avgust, što kompanijama daje samo nekoliko nedelja da prilagode lance snabdevanja ili povećaju cene za potrošače.

Serbian and Bosnian exporters now face a stark choice: absorb the cost or pass it on to buyers. =
Srpski i bosanski izvoznici se sada suočavaju sa jasnim izborom: da pokriju trošak ili da ga prebace na kupce.

In short, if you were hoping for smoother trade relations, congratulations – you just got a 35% speed bump. =
Ukratko, ako ste se nadali poboljšanju trgovačkih odnosa, čestitamo – upravo ste dobili usporenje od 35%.
