Peking, prihajamo! Urška Žolnir V Atene ste potovala kot rezerva, domov ste se vrnili s kolajno. Si pred olimpijskimi igrami verjela v tak uspeh? Po pravici povem, da takšnega razpleta nisem pričakovala. Predvsem sem želela dokazati sebi, da s trdim delom in vztrajnostjo lahko dosežem dobro uvrstitev. S svojimi rezultati ste v evropskem in svetovnem vrhu. Od česa bo odvisno, boj za kolajne ali ne? Boj za kolajne, če bom do tja prišla, bo odvisen kako dobro se bom borila, da bom dala vse od sebe in čisto nič drugega. Menite, da se pravljica iz Aten lahko ponovi? Trenutno lahko rečem samo to, da bom stremela k maksimalno dobrim bojem. Ostalo bo pa tako, kot mi je usojeno. Kar se je dogajalo v Atenah je stvar preteklosti. Sedaj bomo vsi tekmovalci ponovno na štartu in samo številke. Prvaki bodo na koncu OI!

Iztok âop Olimpijske igre v Pekingu bodo vaše pete igre v samostojni Sloveniji. Kako različno ste jih doživljali? Med njimi so precejšnje razlike. Samo vzdušje je bilo pogosto odvisno od okolja, kjer so se odvijale. Mediteran je bil zame med vsemi najprijetnejši. Sam pa sem jih različno doživljal tudi zaradi različne starosti oz. zrelosti ob nastopih. Pri 32. letih sem igre v Atenah gotovo videl drugače kot 12 let prej v Barceloni. Predvsem pa nobenih iger nisem doživljal kot zabavo, saj sem imel vedno visoke tekmovalne ambicije, zato so bile vsake posebej precej stresne. Z izjemo Atlante 1996 ste se domov vedno vračali s kolajno. Kaj je potrebno imeti za uspeh na olimpijskih igrah? Predvsem veliko volje do treninga in trezno glavo v ključnih trenutkih. Breme visoke uvrstitve na OI je lahko zelo težko, hkrati pa zelo velik motiv. Čeprav z vsemi uvrstitvami nisem bil popolnoma zadovoljen, se mi zdi, da sem vedno v olimpijskih nastopih prikazal maksimum tiste sezone. Bodo to vaše zadnje olimpijske igre? To bo pokazal čas.

Vasilij Žbogar Spomin na kolajno v Atenah je še vedno živ. So bile priprave na Peking enake kot pred štirimi leti ali ste kaj spremenili? Priprave na Peking(Quingdao) so se precej razlikovale od priprav na Atene. Vetrovni pogoji so povsem drugačni in s tem tudi tehnika jadranja ter fizične priprave. Medtem ko smo bili v Atenah jadralci pripravljeni za vse možne vetrovne pogoje to ne velja za Quingdao.Tukaj prevladujejo šibki vetrovi in močan morski tok kateri zahteva posebno tehniko vožnje jadrnice. Po šibkih vetrovih je izredno pomenbna težina jadralca zato je v zaključnih pripravah v prvem planu izguba odvečnih kilogramov. Če smo jadralci v Athenah imeli med 80 in 82 kilogramov imamo v Quingdau med 73 in 79 kilogramov. Žal zaradi moje višine (190cm) spadam med težje jadralce na prvenstvu,torej tiste, ki upajo na kakšen dan močnejšega vetra. Regatno polje v Qingdau je zelo zahtevno. Močni tokovi, spremenjeni vetrovi. Kateri elementi bodo odločilno vplivali na uvrstitev? Vsak minimalen detalj bo vplival na regato. Tukaj ne mislim samo na naravne okoliščine vendar tudi na sodnike in regatni odbor. V jadranju smo majhne države postale nevarne »velikim« zato nam konstantno mečejo polena pod noge. Npr. v klasi laser še dan danes angleži niso požrli moje 3. in Godisonovo 4. mesto iz Athen. Na štartni črti bodo vsi jadralci imeli enake pogoje, po štartnem znaku pa bomo videli. Se boste udeležili otvoritvene slovesnosti v Ptičjem gnezdu, glede na to, da so regatna polja v Qingdau? Slovesnostne otvoritve se nameravam udeležiti če bo logistično, za nas jadralce, dobro izpeljano. Otvoritve v Athenah se nisem udeležil in mi je bilo kasneje zelo žal.

Beijing – Here we are! Urška Žolnir When you were travelling to Athens, you long remained on the reserve list, but than you came home with a medal. Had you believed in such a success before the Olympic Games? Honestly, I didn’t expect anything like that. Most of all I wanted to prove myself that with hard work and persistence I can rank high. You are among the world’s top because of your results. Will there be a fight for medals or not, and on what does this depend? A fight for medals, if I’ll get there, will depend on how good I will fight, if I will do my best, and nothing else. Do you think the same as in Athens can happen again? Momentary I can only say that I will aspire to the very best conditions. The rest is up to the destiny. What happened in Athens is part of the past. Now, all of us athletes will be again at the beginning and we’ll all be only numbers. Champions will be known at the end of the Olympic Games!

Iztok âop Since Slovenia got independent this is the fifth time that you are taking part at the Olympic Games. How did you experience every Olympic Games? There were big differences between them. The atmosphere often depended on where they took part. For me the Mediterranean was the most pleasant among all. But another important factor for how I experienced the Games was my age and maturity. With 32 the Games in Athens definitely appeared totally different than when I was 12 years younger in Barcelona. But the most important, I never thought of the Games as of an amusement, because I always had high competitive ambitions, and that is why it was always very stressful. With the exception in Atlanta in 1996, you always came home with a medal. What does one need to win at the Olympic Games? Especially a lot of will for training and the use of common sense in crucial moments. The burden of the Olympic Games can be very heavy, but at the same time it can be a strong motive. Although I was not completely satisfied with all the rankings, I think at the Olympic performances I have always shown the maximum of the season. Are these your last Olympic Games? I guess only time will tell that.

Vasilij Žbogar You can still vividly remember the medal in Athens. Were the preparations for OG Beijing 2008 the same as four years ago or did you change anything? The preparations for OG Beijing 2008 (Quingdao) were very different from those for Athens. The winds are totally different and because of that also the technique of sailing and the physical preparations. While in Athens the sailors had to be prepared for all kinds of wind conditions this is different in Quingdao. Light winds and strong currents, for which a special technique of sailing is required, are prevailing here. The weight of the sailor is very important because of the light winds and that is why the most important part of the final preparation consists of loosing weight. If we had between 80 and 82 kilograms in Athens, now in Quingdao we have between 73 and79 kilograms. Unfortunately, because of my height (190cm) I am one of the heaviest sailors at this championship, one of those who hope for some stronger wind. The racing area in Quingdao is very demanding – strong currents, variable winds – which elements will have crucial impact on the ranking? Each smallest detail will influence the race. That does not include only natural circumstances, but also the judges and the race committee. In sailing the small countries have become dangerous for the “big” ones and that is why they are constantly trying to hinder us. For example, in the laser class the English still cannot swallow my 3rd and Godison’s 4th place in Athens. On the starting line all sailors will start under the same conditions, but after the start signal we will see what happens. Are you planning to attend the opening ceremony in the Bird’s Nest, although the racing areas are in Quingdao? I’m planning to attend the opening ceremony if for us sailors this will be carried out well logistically. I didn’t attend the opening in Athens and later I regretted it.

Pred tekmo ponavadi meditira in trenira dvakrat na dan, zaenkrat pa tudi ne razmišlja o obdobju po konãani športni karieri. Sport has always been part of my life since childhood. I have been dreaming about gold medals at the Olympic Games and World Championships all my sports career, perhaps also being a world record holder. I usually meditate before the competition and train hard twice a day and I do not think about the period after my sports career.

Njegov moto je: »Naredi najboljše po svojih zmožnostih«, tako da si želi ostati uspešen tudi po zakljuãku športne kariere. Pravi, da moramo uživati življenje in vse trenutke, ki nas spremljajo. He is a pole vaulter because he likes risky sports. He started to jump in Brežice in 1987 and had his first international sports experience at the Junior World Championship in Lisbon, Portugal, in 1994. His motto is “Do it to the best of your abilities” and, of course, he wants to be successful in life after his sports career. He thinks one should enjoy life and every moment that comes by.

He is highly motivated to break the national record at the Games and he hopes that new record would place him into the semi-final and thus improve his quarter-final placing in Athens.

Na olimpijskem programu od / Part of the Olympic programme since: Gre za enega najhitrejših športov z loparji, saj hitrost žogice dosega tudi prek 300 km/h. Hitrost, spretnost, gibãnost in strelsko hitri refleksi so bistvene sposobnosti športnika, ne smemo pa pozabiti na vzdržljivost, saj športnik lahko na tekmo preteãe tudi veã kot 6 km. Kot demonstracijski šport je badminton bil na programu Olimpijskih iger v Münchnu leta 1972, vendar je preteklo še 20 let, da je bil uvršãen na redni olimpijski program za igre v Barceloni leta 1992. Since flight of the shuttlecock has been recorded at speeds over 300 kilometres per hour it is one of the fastest sports with rackets. Speed, agility and lightning-fast reflexes are essential to the game, and of course stamina - players have been known to cover more than six kilometres in a single match. Badminton was contested as a demonstration sport during the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich and it debuted as a full medal sport in 1992 at Barcelona.

She started playing badminton very early – when she was seven – and she also started to participate in competitions in the category up to 12 years.

Na olimpijskem programu od / Part of the Olympic programme since: Gimnastika je na olimpijskem programu od prvih iger moderne dobe, vendar so se discipline menjavale. Pri športni gimnastiki se je leta 1924 nekako ustalil moški program, medtem ko so ženske zaãele nastopati 1928 v Amsterdamu. Mnogo kasneje se je na program uvrstila ritmiãna gimnastika, saj je bila prviã predstavljena leta 1984 v Los Agelesu in pa trampolin, ki se je uvrstil na program iger v Sydneyu leta 2000. Gymnastics has been part of the Olympics since the first modern Games, but the disciplines were changing. The Olympic programme of Artistic Gymnastics for men began to settle in 1924, while women began competing in Olympic gymnastics at the Games in Amsterdam in 1928. The rhythmic competition was introduced into the Olympic Games much later, in 1984 in Los Angeles and the trampoline in 2000 at the OG in Sydney.

Svetovna konkurenca ga pozna od leta 1993 z nastopom na evropskem mladinskem prvenstvu, prvi olimpijski nastop pa si je pritelovadil leta 1999 za igre v Sydneyu. Skozi zahteven kvalifikacijski sistem se mu žal ni posreãilo uvrstiti na POI Atene 2004, tako da je z naslovom svetovnega prvaka, in tako priborjenim mestom na POI Peking 2008, veã kot zadovoljen. Po športni karieri pa si želi umirjenega družinskega življenja. Multiple world and Europe champion on parallel bars has been a member of the Narodni dom sports association in Ljubljana since 1983. His first international competition was the European Junior Championship, and he first attended the Olympic Games in 2000 in Sydney. Because of the pretentious qualification system unfortunately he could not participated at the OG in Athens, and that is why he is more than satisfied with the world champion title and so the possibility to participate at the OG in Beijing in 2008. After the sports career he just wants to enjoy a peaceful family life. Razno / Other info: Zaposlen na Ministrstvu za notranje zadeve / Employee of Ministry of the Interior

Sailing was for the first time part of the Olympic programme in 1900, but since 1908 it is has been part of every Olympic Games. The race format and the classes of competing boats have changed significantly since the popularity of single sailing boats is decreasing and smaller sailing boats and a smaller number of members of the crew have become more popular.

Trenutno si želi konãati študij in nato ostati v jadralskih vodah. His career started in Koper in 1991 and he is still sailing and living there. His successes follow one another and in the meanwhile he is working on getting a new motto. At the moment he is looking forward to finishing his studies and then he wants to keep on sailing.

Info o športniku / Info about athlete: V jadranju je že dolgo ãasa, saj jadra že od leta 1993. Debitiral je v razredu optimist na EP leta 1995 ter si skozi leta utiral pot k najboljšim razreda finn. Pravi: »Pokaži kaj znaš.«in oãitno še ni vsega pokazal, saj še ne misli skleniti svoje športne kariere. He has been sailing since 1993. In the Optimist Class his first ECH was in 1995, but throughout the years he became one of the best sailors in the Finn Class. He says: »Do your stuff!« and since he has no intentions of finishing his career, obviously he still did not show all he can do.

Info o športniku / Info about athlete: Zaãel je že pri otroških letih, saj jadra od leta 1982. Vasco, kot ga kliãejo prijatelji, gradi svojo pot na trdem delu, kot njegov moto: »Krepat, krepat ma ne molat.« Nerad se hvali, pa vendar ima za seboj dobro mero visokih uvrstitev, nenazadnje tudi bronasto olimpijsko medaljo. Svojo poslovno pot vidi tako kot športno, prevzeto z olimpijskim naãelom »hitreje, višje, moãneje.« He started as a child; he has been sailing since 1982. Vasco, as his friends call him, depends upon hard work, that is why his motto is »Dying, dying, but never stop trying.« He does not like to blow his own trumpet, but he can be proud of achieving many good results, also a bronze Olympic medal. In his business life he follows the same Olympic principles as in sports: »Citius, Altius, Fortius.« Razno / Other info: Zaposlen na ministrstvu za finance – Carinska uprava RS / Employee of Ministry of Finance – Customs Administration of RS

Her most memorable moment was competing at the Atlanta Games in 1996, which was her first Olympic experience. Although she trains hard, she is true to her motto: “If necessary, with my head through the brick wall”. Nevertheless, she tries to remain a down–to–earth top sailor.

She loves sailing so she sails whenever she can and she is not superstitious about it.

Na olimpijskem programu od / Part of the Olympic programme since: âeprav “judo” po japonsko pomeni uglajeno, vljudno oz. nežno pot, gre vseeno za borilni šport, ki združuje razliãne borilne vešãine. Na olimpijski program se je uvrstil na Japonskem na igrah v Tokiju leta 1964, ko je država gostiteljica lahko na program uvrstila eno športno panogo, medtem pa so ženske priãele tekmovati šele v Barceloni 1992. Although Judo means "the gentle way" in Japanese it sill is a fighting sport, combining various techniques. Judo became an Olympic sport for men in the 1964 Tokyo games, when the host country was allowed to put a port on the Olympic programme. Judo became an Olympic sport for women in 1992 in Barcelona.

Info o športniku / Info about athlete: Športnica iz Atenske pravljice in osvojeno bronasto medaljo rada kolesari in vesla. Pa vendar je njena prva ljubezen judo, ki je del njenega življenja že od leta 1992. Debitirala je kot mladinka na evropskem prvenstvu leta 1995, pa ãeprav z ne tako odmevno uvrstitvijo, je z vztrajnostjo in moãno željo po uspehu sebi in nasprotnicam pokazala, da je trdna volja še najboljša. She was part of the Athens fairy tale, where she won a bronze medal. She likes cycling and rowing but her love is judo, which has been part of her life since 1992. Her first Junior European Championship in 1995 did not end with very good results, but the persistence and strong will for winning helped her to prove herself and showed her opponents that the strong will is the most important factor.

Mednarodni konkurenci se je predstavil leta 1999 s 7. mestom na OFEM, svoj prvi olimpijski nastop pa si je poplaãal s trudom in nikakor še ne razmišlja o koncu športne kariere. He does not have a lot of free time, but when he does, he plays football. He is a tough opponent with lots of experiences – he has been practicing tatami already since 1995. He was introduced to the international competitors in 1997, with the 7th place in EYOF and in his first Olympic participation he was awarded for the effort he made. He definitely does not think about the end of his career jet.

Športno kariero še ne misli postaviti v kot, seveda pa raãuna na službo in pa ostati povezan s športom. He started with kayaking in his home town in Hrastnik in 1990, and besides the rough waters he loves winter sports, such as cross-country skiing, snowboarding and skiing he does not think about finishing his sports career, but he does rely upon a job and intends to do something connected to sport.

Rad bere, surfa po internetu, potuje, fotografira in vse to zajame na svoji spletni strani, ki jo tudi sam vzdržuje. S kajakom prijateljuje že od leta 1991, konkurenci pa se je predstavil leta 1997 na mladinskem svetovnem prvenstvu. Po športni karieri si želi najti novo podroãje, kjer bo uspešen in ne bo povezano s kajakom. He has many hobbies, but all of them are somehow connected with sports. He loves to read, to surf the internet, to travel, to take pictures and furthermore, he puts all this on a webpage, which he alone designs and takes care of. He has been friends with the kayak since 1991, but he introduced himself to other competitors in 1997 at the Junior World Championship. After the sports career he would like to discover a new field in which he will be doing great and of course it will not have to have something to do with kayaking.

Olimpijske igre v Atenah so se ji izmuznile le za nekaj stotink, zato je bila kvalifikacija za POI Peking toliko slajša. She started kayaking in flatwaters in 1993 in Koper; in 1996 she already attended the European Junior Championship in Poznan. She missed the Olympic Games in Athens for just a few hundredths, which is why the qualifications for the OG in Beijing were even more pleasing.

Na olimpijskem programu od / Part of the Olympic programme since: Žogica pri namiznem tenisu leti s hitrostjo tudi do 180 km/h z rotacijo do 151 vrtljajev na sekundo in je danes eden najbolj razširjenih športov po svetu, tako tekmovalno kot rekreativno. Igralci uporabljajo razliãne udarce npr. “the Hit” – udariti, poriniti in pa tehnike igre “the Chop” – zrezati, sekljati, nekateri pa so znani po tem, da “ubijajo” v igri; imajo t.i. “Killer instinct”. Ne glede na ta znaãaj pa je namizni tenis postal del programa olimpijskih iger leta 1988 v Seulu. The ball at table tennis can reach 180 km/h with up to 151 rotations per second and it is one of the most widespread sports in the world, both competitively and recreationally. The players use different strokes e.g. “the Hit” – hit, push and techniques “the Chop” – cut, slice, but some players are famous for “killing” in the game; they have a so called “Killer instinct”. However, irrespective of this nature table tennis has been part of the Olympic programme since 1988 in Seoul.

Z uvrstitvijo na olimpijske igre se mu je izpolnila najveãja želja in sicer ob pravem ãasu, saj bo nastopil v »zibelki« namiznega tenisa. âeprav gre za profesionalnega igralca, v prostem ãasu uživa tudi v drugih športih. Toko is extremely devoted to table tennis and he often surprised many Asian players and also bit them. With the participation in the Olympic Games his biggest dream came true and it was also at the right time since he will be playing in the “cradle” of table tennis. Although he is a professional player, he enjoys other sports in his free time.

Ženske so priãele nastopati leta 1912, sedaj pa moški in ženske nastopajo vsak v 16. disciplinah. Swimming has been held at every Olympic Games, but the early events were usually only conducted in freestyle (crawl) or breaststroke.

Info o športniku / Info about athlete: Ne le zaradi priimka se ga je kar hitro oprijel vzdevek Dugi (višina 198 cm). Bolj mu ležijo šprinterske razdalje, saj pravi, da mu dolge proge ne odgovarjajo. Po napornih treningih rad sede za raãunalnik, odigra malo odbojke oz. se druži s prijatelji. He is not called Dugi (longy) just because of his Surname, but also because he is 198 centimetres tall. He is better in short events; he says that the long ones do n0ot suit him. After tough trainings he loves to sit behind the computer, play volleyball or just hang out with friends.

V tej smeri za hobi opravlja raziskovalno delo na univerzitetnem laboratoriju, ob vsem tem pa tudi inštruira in rad kuha. Glede na to, da trenira že od leta 1992, ima v žepu tudi nekaj državnih rekordov, prvo veãjo mednarodno tekmo pa predstavlja svetovno prvenstvo v Barceloni leta 2004. He is devoted to swimming as much as he is devoted to studying immunology. For this purpose he does research at the university laboratory, but besides all this he also teaches and likes cooking. Since he has been training since 1992, he already set some national records. The first important international competition was the World Aquatics Championship in Barcelona in 2003.

Po dežju vedno posije sonce in takšna je tudi njena športna pot s prvim uspešnim mednarodnim nastopom na OFEM leta 1999, kjer je osvojila 1. mesto na 200m hrbtno. Sicer pa rada rola, posluša glasbo in igra odbojko na mivki. She is studying creative design and wants to work this profession after the termination of her swimming career, which she has been following since 1993. Every cloud has a silver lining and that is how her sports career looks like with her first successful international participation in EYOF in 1999, where she won the gold medal in 200 metres backstroke. Her hobbies are rollerblading, listening to music and playing beach volley.

A junior swimmer will be representing Slovenia in Beijing in a new Olympic discipline.

Na olimpijskem programu od / Part of the Olympic programme since: Strelstvo je bilo prisotno na skoraj vseh olimpijskih igrah (brez nastopa leta 1904 in 1928). Število in vrsta disciplin so se skozi leta veliko spreminjala, vendar pa se je program disciplin po 2. svetovni vojni veã ali manj standardiziral. Ženske so priãele nastopati leta 1968, vendar so moške in ženske discipline zaãeli loãevati leta 1984 in šele 1996 leta so ženske nastopale v ãisto loãenih disciplinah. Shooting has been contested at most of the Olympic Games except during the 1904 and 1928 Games. The programme has varied a lot but since World War II the programme has become relatively standardised. Women were first allowed to compete in Olympic shooting in 1968. In 1984 separate events for women and men were introduced and it has been only since 1996 when men's events have began being separated from the women's.

Lahko reãemo, da gre za veterana Olimpijskih iger, saj bodo to njegove že sedme. Zanimivo pri njemu je, da si zastavi cilj in pri njemu vztraja. Na svoji poti, ki traja že od leta 1971, je že napolnil svojo vitrino z medaljami na najvišjih tekmovanjih, med njimi pa se tudi blešãi zlata iz Olimpijskih iger v Sydneyu leta 2000. Proste ure pa zelo rad preživi v gorah s svojo družino. Since this is already his seventh participation, we could say he is a veteran of Olympic Games. The interesting thing about him is that he sets himself a goal and sticks to it. Since 1971 he has won medals in the highest competitions, among which one gold medal from at Olympic Games in Sydney in 2000. When he is free he spends time in the mountains with his family.

Na olimpijskem programu od / Part of the Olympic programme since: Gre za hitro disciplino, saj ãolni dosegajo hitrost tudi do 10m na sekundo, tako da morajo športniki morajo imeti vzdržljivost maratonca, ki prve kilometre šprinta. Sicer pa je veslanje na programu olimpijskih iger že od leta 1896, vendar je bilo tistega leta zaradi slabih vremenskih razmer tekmovanje v veslanju odpovedano. Ženske so priãele nastopati leta 1976, leta 1996 pa so na olimpijskih igrah predstavili tudi discipline lahkih veslaãev. It is a very fast discipline; the boats can reach up to 10 metres per second and that is why the athletes have to be as persistent as marathoners, who sprint for the first few kilometres. The only time that rowing has not been contested in the Olympics was in 1896, because of rough seas which forced the cancellation of the events. Women were admitted to the Olympic programme in 1976 and in 1996 Olympics the lightweight events have been introduced.

Prav velikih ambicij še nima, pravi pa, da rad uživa vikende, poletja in seveda obilne zajtrke. It is interesting that he had firstly been training ice hockey for four years, and then in 1992 he switched to the rowing club Bled. 4 years later he was already a member of the rowing crew at the Junior World Championship in Glasgow, and another 4 years later he was a member of the Olympic crew in Sydney. He does not have any great ambitions, but he says he enjoys the week-ends, the summer and of course big breakfasts.

Oprema slovenske olimpijske delegacije Slovenia Olympic Team Outfit Slavnostne priložnosti Podoba oblačil za slavnostne priložnosti iz Mure d.d. je umirjena, zasnova je nova in modna. Barvna slika, na trenutke zelo hladna in funkcionalnega izgleda, je dopolnjena s skoraj mlečnimi pasteli. Tudi dodatki, čevlji, pasovi, torbice so tonsko usklajeni in ne izstopajo. Tako tkanine kot tudi usnje so obdelane z leskom, ki prehaja od srebrne proti obarvanim zlatim tonom, do sivih, zelenkasto zlatih in natur tonov.

The celebration occasions The look of the outfit from Mura d.d. is classy and the ideas are new and modern. Like a colour painting, at moments very cold and functionally looking, but supplemented with almost white pastel colours. The colours of accessories, shoes, belts and handbags are also chosen from the same palette of colours and do not stand out. Both, the textile and the leather are covered with shiny colours which pass over from silver to golden shades, to grey, greenish gold and natural colours.

Prosti ãas Francoski oblikovalec oblačil in obutve Le Coq Sportif je našel svoj navdih v dogodkih iz sedemdesetih in osemdesetih let prejšnjega stoletja, pri snovanju modnih izdelkov živahnih barv pa zagotavlja udobje in lahkotnost.

Free time Le Coq Sportif – a French company designing clothes and shoes has found its inspiration in the 70s ands 80s of the last century and its fashionable products in vivid colours ensure comfort and a soft feel.

Oprema slovenske olimpijske delegacije Slovenia Olympic Team Outfit Osnovna športna oprema Idejna zasnova Le Coq Sportifa bazira na slovenskih nacionalnih simbolih slovenskega grba Zvezde, Triglava (gore) in Vode ter na slovenskih barvah - modri, zeleni in beli. Izbrani so vrhunski materiali, ki zagotavljajo športnikom udobnost, zračnost in zaščito pred zunanjimi vplivi.

General sports equipment The idea of Le Coq Sportif is based on Slovenian national symbols of the Slovenian coat of arms – the stars, the mount Triglav and water, but also on Slovenian national colours – blue, green and white. The best materials have been chosen, because they provide comfort, breathability and protection from external elements for the athletes.

Tekmovalna oprema Le Coq Sportif je uporabil nove materiale, ki so specialno obdelani s kokosovim aktivnim ogljikom, kot npr. »revolution gloss light«, ki je zelo lahek in ob enem čvrst, odporen na drgnjenje in piling, zagotavlja UV zaščito in je bakteriološko neutralen. Uporabljena je tudi “madra perla”, vtkana karbonska vlakna, ki delujejo kot regulator toplote, znižujejo koncentracijo mlečne kisline in izboljšujejo prekrvavitev ter oksidacijo celic.

Competition equipment Le Coq Sportif has been using new materials, which are specially treated with the active coconut hydrogen, such as »revolution gloss light« which is very light and at the same time compact, resistant to rubbing and pilling, providing UV protection and is bacteriological neutral. Furthermore, “madre perla” is being used, interwoven elements of carbon fibre, which function as a temperature regulator, reduce the concentration of lactic acid and improve blood circulation and oxidation of cells.

Šport v Sloveniji "Ste majhna nacija, a veliki v športu!" S temi besedami je tedanji predsednik Mednarodnega olimpijskega komiteja Juan Antonio Samaranch leta 1993 ob obisku v Sloveniji povzel navdušujoč razvoj športa in olimpijske ideje v Sloveniji. Samostojno članstvo v olimpijski družini je leta 1992 Sloveniji odprlo novo obzorje v razvoju športa in olimpijskih idealov.

Zgodovina športa: Športna in olimpijska tradicija sta v Sloveniji del nacionalne kulturne dediščine. Že leta 1689 je zgodovinar Janez Vajkard Valvasor v svojem delu "Slava vojvodine Kranjske" med drugim opisal smučarje z Bloške planote. To je hkrati najstarejši zapis o smučanju v centralnem delu Evrope. Kljub dokumentiranemu zgodnejšemu obstoju športnih prvin pa so slovenska športna društva nastala skoraj dvesto let kasneje - prvo slovensko športno društvo Južni Sokol je bilo ustanovljeno leta 1862. Med velikane športne kulture v Sloveniji sodi prvi znanilec slovenskega olimpizma Rudolf Cvetko (1880-1997), ki se je leta 1912 kot prvi Slovenec, član avstrijske ekipe, udeležil OI v Stockholmu; Leon Štukelj (1898-1999), ki je v času od leta 1924 do 1936 sodeloval na treh OI in osvojil 3 zlate ter po eno srebrno in bronasto odličje; Miroslav Cerar (1939) je po 2. svetovni vojni ponovno obudil sloves slovenkse gimnastike in osvojil dve zlati medalji in eno bronasto na Olimpijskih igrah v Tokiju in Mexico Cityju; Razvoj sodobnega športa je v Sloveniji neločljivo povezan z inženirjem Stankom Bloudkom (18901959), ki ni bil le zagret športnik, temveč tudi graditelj letal in športnih objektov. Bil je eden izmed najbolj gorečih zagovornikov olimpijske ideje v Sloveniji in leta 1948 kot edini Slovenec doslej postal član MOKa.

Olimpijski komite Slovenije in razvoj športa: Leta 1991 je bil ustanovljen Olimpijski komite Slovenije, ki ga je leto kasneje priznal Mednarodni olimpijski komite. Slovenski športniki so pod slovensko zastavo prvič nastopili na zimskih olimpijskih igrah v Albertvillu leta 1992. Danes tekmovalke in tekmovalci sodelujejo na največjih svetovnih in evropskih športnih tekmovanjih, na katerih so praviloma zelo uspešni. Doslej so na poletnih olimpijskih igrah osvojili kar 39 medalj, v samostojni Sloveniji 14 in od leta 1991 na svetovnih ter evropskih prvenstvih že več kot 680 medalj. Najboljše rezultate slovenski športniki dosegajo v veslanju, atletiki, judu, jadranju, športni gimnastiki, padalstvu, plesu, strelstvu, deskanju na snegu in teku na smučeh. Tudi v ekipnih športih – rokometu odbojki, nogometu in v zadnjem času v košarki, dosegajo uspehe. Vidne uspehe pa slovenski športniki dosegajo tudi v drugih panogah. Po osamosvojitvi leta 1991 skuša Slovenija razviti sodobne organizacijske in zakonske razmere za razvoj športa. Leta 1994 se je OKS združil s Športno zvezo Slovenije. Nova krovna športna organizacija Olimpijski komite Slovenije - Združenje športnih zvez združuje 66 nacionalnih panožnih športnih zvez ter 84 lokalnih športnih organizacij, z več kot 5300 društvi in 450,000 posamezniki. OKS skuša razvijati tako vrhunski šport kot šport za vse. Država preko Ministrstva ta šolstvo in šport ustvarja pogoje za razvoj športa z Nacionalnim programom športa, ki ga je sprejel slovenski parlament in opredeljuje kratkoročne, srednjeročne in dolgoročne cilje. Program opredeljuje uresničevanje javnega interesa v športu in zajema celostno organizirano športno dejavnost - športno vzgojo, rekreacijo, kakovostni šport, vrhunski šport in invalidski šport. Za razvoj na področju izobraževanja in znanosti v športu v Sloveniji skrbi Fakulteta za šport.

Sports in Slovenia “You are a small nation, but great in sports!” With these words Mr. Juan Antonio Samaranch, former IOC President, expressed his opinion on the development of sports and the Olympic Movement in Slovenia during his visit to Slovenia in 1993.

Sports History: In Slovenia, sports and the Olympic tradition represent part of the national heritage. As early as 1689, Janez Vajkard Valvasor, historian, described the “Bloke highlands skiers” in his work “The Glory of the Duchy of the Upper Carniola”, which is the oldest description of skiing in the Central European region. Nevertheless, the first Slovenian sports associations emerged almost 200 years later – the first association, called Južni Sokol (South Falcon), was established in 1862. Rudolf Cvetko (1880-1977) was the first Olympic athlete from Slovenia, competing in the 1912 Stockholm Games as a member of the Austrian National Team; Leon Štukelj (1898-1999) participated at three Olympic Games, from 1924 through 1936, and won 3 gold medals, one silver and one bronze; After the Second World War, Miroslav Cerar (1939) renewed the reputation of Slovenian gymnastics, winning two gold medals and one bronze at the Olympic Games of Tokyo and Mexico City; Stanko Bloudek (1890-1959), athlete and sports engineer, was a promoter of the Olympic ideal in Slovenia; in 1948 he became the only IOC member from Slovenia thus far.

Olympic Committee of Slovenia and sports development: The Slovenian Olympic Committee was established in 1991. It was recognised by the International Olympic Committee a year later; in 1992, for the first time ever, Slovenian athletes competed under their own flag at the Winter Olympic Games of Albertville. Ever since, our athletes have participated in every international World and European Championship, obtaining excellent sports results - 39 Olympic medals (some under Austrian and Yugoslavian flags and 14 for the independent Slovenia) and over 680 medals at World and European Championships. Traditionally, the best achievements were in rowing, athletics, judo, sailing, artistic gymnastics, parachuting, dancing, shooting, snowboarding and cross-country skiing, although relatively good results were also obtained in team sports such as basketball, volleyball, football and handball. Since gaining its independence in 1991, Slovenia has been steadily striving for the development of modern organizational and legislative conditions and circumstances for the development of sports. In 1994, our NOC merged with the Association of Sports Federations. The newly merged umbrella sports organisation, the Olympic Committee of Slovenia – Association of Sports Federations, connects 66 national sports federations, and 84 local sports organisations, together with more than 5,300 clubs and associations and 450,000 members. Our NOC’s objectives are to develop top sports, as well as sports for all activities. The State, with the Ministry of Education and Sport, has created the necessary conditions for the development of sports through the National Programme of Sport, passed in the Slovenian Parliament as the means of determining short-term, medium-term and long-term objectives. The National Programme defines the so–called “public interest” in sport and covers the entire range of organized sports activities – physical education, sport for all, high performance sports and sport for disabled people. The Faculty of Sport is responsible for the development of sports education and sports science in Slovenia.

Slovenski olimpijski heroji Rudolf CVETKO (1880-1977) Rudolf Cvetko se je kot član avstrijske olimpijske sabljaške ekipe udeležil poletnih iger v Stockholmu leta 1912 in kot prvi Slovenec osvojil prvo olimpijsko kolajno. Bil je avstro-ogrski oficir in inštruktor sabljanja Vojnega inštituta Wiener Neustadt v Avstriji. Kasneje je postal eden vodilnih športnih organizatorjev in sabljaških trenerjev v Sloveniji.

Leon ŠTUKELJ (1898-1999) Legenda slovenskih olimpijskih herojev je umrl le 4 dni pred svojim 101 rojstnim dnevom in je ob stoletnici OI moderne dobe kot najstarejši živeči olimpionik na povabilo Mednarodnega olimpijskega komiteja (MOK) sodeloval na slovesni otvoritvi v Atlanti. Uspelo se mu je uvrstiti v sam svetovni vrh. Samo na olimpijskih igrah si je pritelovadil šest odličij, od tega dve zlati v Parizu leta 1924, eno zlato in dve bronasti v Amsterdamu leta 1928 in za zaključek kariere, star 37 let, še eno srebrno v Berlinu leta 1936. Na svetovnih prvenstvih je osvojil 14 kolajn. Leon Štukelj, legenda svetovnega športa, je zapisan v zgodovini slovenskega športa kot tekmovalec z največ uspehi na velikih mednarodnih športnih tekmovanjih, soustanovitelj Olimpijskega komiteja Slovenije in podpisnik slovenske olimpijske listine ter ostaja ponos slovenskega naroda in vzor za športno in zdravo življenje.

Miroslav CERAR (1939) Miroslav Cerar, v vsem svetu znan kot najbolj elegantni in najboljši »konjenik« svoje tekmovalne dobe je po drugi svetovni vojni za sebe in Slovenijo priboril največ kolajn, zato ga uvrščamo za najuspešnejšega športnika Slovenije od 1945 dalje. V letih 1958 in 1970 je na olimpijskih igrah, svetovnih in evropskih prvenstvih osvojil 30 odličij. Njegova paradna disciplina je bil konj z ročaji, na katerem je osvojil dve zlati olimpijski kolajni (1964, 1968) ter postal trikrat svetovni (1962, 1966, 1970) in trikrat evropski prvak (1961, 1963, 1969). Leta 1991 je bil odlikovan z olimpijskim redom in postal častni član Olimpijskega komiteja Slovenije, predsednik iniciativnega odbora za ustanovitev Olimpijskega komiteja Slovenije in bil kasneje izvoljen za podpredsednika slovenskega NOK. Od leta 1994 je predsednik Slovenske olimpijske akademije.

Stanko BLOUDEK (1890-1959) Zagotovo je bil za razvoj slovenskega športa izjemnega pomena »oče slovenskega športa« ing. Stanko Bloudek. Bil je tekmovalec (udeležil se je olimpijskih iger v St. Moritzu leta 1928), trener, konstruktor, organizator in član MOK. Od leta 1964 se njemu na čast najuspešnejšim športnikom in športnim delavcem za njihove dosežke podeljuje »Bloudkovo priznanje«, najprestižnejše slovensko športno priznanje.

Slovenian Olympic Heroes Rudolf CVETKO (1880-1977) The first Slovenian ever to receive an Olympic medal as a member of the Austrian sabre team in Stockholm in 1912. He was an officer in the Austro–Hungarian army and fencing instructor at the Military Institute of Wiener Neustadt, Austria. Later, he became one of the leading sports organisers and fencing trainers in Slovenia.

Leon ŠTUKELJ (1898-1999) The doyen of Slovenian Olympic champions died only 4 days before his 101 birthday and was honored as the oldest living Olympic Champion at the official opening of the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games. This exceptional gymnast and long-lived athlete won the Olympic gold in Paris in 1924 and Amsterdam in 1928; in Berlin in 1936, he won the silver at the age of 37. Altogether, he won 6 Olympic medals (three gold, one silver and two bronze). In addition, Štukelj won 14 trophies at World Championships. A true sports ambassador, he leaves the legacy of a lifetime’s dedication to sport, through his unceasing involvement in Slovenia’s sports movement, as co-founder of the Slovenian Olympic Committee, co-signer of the Slovenian Olympic Charter and for the legendary Štukelj manoevre.

Miroslav CERAR (1939) The last “romantic” on the pommel horse is the most successful athlete in the history of Slovenian sports. Between 1958 and 1970, he won 30 medals at the Olympic Games, World and European Championships. His speciality was the pommel horse, on which he became a double Olympic champion (1964, 1968), triple World (1962, 1966, 1970) and European champion (1961, 1963, 1969). In 1991, Miro Cerar, who was also awarded the Olympic Order and honorary membership on the Olympic Committee of Slovenia, became president of the Initiative Board for the founding of the Olympic Committee of Slovenia. Later, he was elected vice–president of the Slovenian NOC. Since 1994 he has been president of the Olympic Academy of Slovenia.

Stanko BLOUDEK (1890-1959) Undoubtedly, Stanko Bloudek exerted the greatest influence on the development of sports in Slovenia. Bloudek, also called “Father of the Slovene sport”, was a builder and inventor, an athlete (he participated at the St. Moritz Olympic Games in 1928), a coach and a sports official who had great impact on local and international levels and was the first, and so far the only, IOC member from Slovenia. In his honour, the Bloudek Award, the most prestigeous sports award in Slovenia, has been given to athletes and sports representatives for the greatest sports achievements every year since 1964.

Koristne informacije Useful information … and Beijing For the last 850 years Beijing has been the capital and also the cultural and diplomatic centre of China. It represents the centre of China and has developed into a modern international city with 12.6 millions inhabitants, otherwise it is also known for its ancient, more than 3000 years old culture. Climate and temperatures: half humid climate with 4 seasons (short spring and autumn, and long summer and winter), on average 13°C (in January -3,7°C, in July 25,2°C), in August on average 24,9°C (max 36,1°C) and 77 % humidity. Attractions: 7309 stages of historical or cultural character, among the most famous are The Great Wall of China, The Forbidden City, The Temple of Heaven and The Summer Palace.

Kitajske navade Pozdravljanje, spoznavanje in poslovna srečanja Ob srečanju je rokovanje običajno. Če se srečate prvič, se istočasno predstavite, sicer pa se pri srečanju ali slovesu ne objemajo in poljubljajo. Kitajce naslavljajte s priimkom na prvem mestu in po potrebi z njegovim naslovom (npr. predsednik). Osebni prostor je manjši, vendar se izogibajte dotikanja, bodite pazljivi pri izbiri teme pogovora in ne obnašajte se preveč svobodno. Pri dajanju in sprejemanju vizitk uporabite obe roki in jo pri podajanju obrnite tako, da jo bo prejemnik lahko prebral. Sprejeto vizitko ne spravite takoj v žep, pač pa jo pregledate, obrnite, če je še kaj na drugi strani in nato spravite v etui za vizitke. Kitajci neradi sklepajo posle z neznanci, zato je dobro opraviti začetni stik preko posrednika, ki pozna obe strani. Znani so po legendarnih pogajalskih veščinah (potrpežljivi in temeljiti, poznajo obojestranski položaj, sposobnosti in namere) ter so vedno korak dlje. Pri poslu upoštevajo hierarhijo in načelo senioritete, omrežje odnosov, poznanstev in povezav. Pridobite njihovo zaupanje ter ne prehitevajte stvari. Obdarovanje Ne sprejmite darila ali komplimenta prehitro. Vsaj nejkajkrat odklonite in običajno se darila ne odpira vpričo darovalca. Darilo pomeni pripravljenost za sodelovanje in je veliko bolj pomembno kot iskrena zahvala. Ne darujte predragih daril, če vam obarovanec ne bo mogel povrniti z enako radodarnostjo, sicer pa je primerno darilo iz svoje države. Obedovanje Ob pitju vedno natočite najprej drugim, šele nato sebi ali pustite, da drugi točijo vam. Palčk ne zapišite navpično v riž in z njimi ne udarjajte po kozarcu ali skodelici. Poskusite vse jedi in na koncu ne pojejte vsega do konca. Vse traja dlje in stane več, kot sprva mislite in bodite pripravljeni na kulturni šok ter se že doma seznanite z razlikami s katerimi se boste soočali na Kitajskem.

Koristne informacije Useful information Chinese habits Greeting, meeting in business meeting Hand shaking is usual. If you meet for the first time you introduce yourself at the same time, but they do not kiss or hug. Address the Chinese people with their surnames and if necessary add the title (e.g. president). The private space is smaller, but avoid physical contact, be careful with choosing the topic of the conversation and do not act to freely. When giving or receiving visiting cards use both hands and hold it so that the receiver can read it. The Do not put the card you received in your pocket immediately, but take a look at it, turn it around, if there is anything on the other side and than put it into the visiting card case. The Chinese do not like to start business with strangers, that is why it is good to establish the first contact with a mediator, who knows both parties. They are famous for their legendary negotiation skills (patient and radical, they know positions, capabilities and intentions) and are always a step ahead. They pay regard to hierarchy in business and the principle of seniority, the network of relations, acquaintance and connections. Gain their trust and do not rush things. Gifts in China Do not take gifts or compliments too soon. You should refuse at least a couple of times and do never open the gift in front of the donor. A gift is a sign of ones willingness for cooperation and is much more important than sincere thanks. Do not give very expensive gifts, if the one receiving it will not be able to return one as generous, usually a gift from your country is appropriate. Dining Always order drinks for the others first, than for yourself, and let others fill your glass. Do not stick the chopsticks into the rice vertically and do not hit with them on glass or a cup. Try all the dishes and do not eat all up. Everything takes longer and costs more, than you think at first and be ready for a cultural shock and get acquainted with the differences you will face in China before you go there.

The Olympic Rings

"Pet krogov - moder, rumen, črn, zelen in rdeč - predstavlja pet kontinentov sveta, ki so prepleteni z olimpizmom in pripravljenostjo tekmovati med seboj. Šesta barva - bela v ozadju - je barva vseh držav in tako pet krogov združuje vse nacije ter predstavlja pravi mednarodni emblem."

"These five rings – blue, yellow, black, green and red – represent the five parts of the world now encompassed by Olympism and ready to compete against each other. Moreover, the six colours (including the white background) thus combined represent those of all nations, without exception. The blue and yellow of Sweden, the blue and white of Greece, the French, English, American, German, Belgian, Italian and Hungarian tricolours, the yellow and red of Spain are side by side with the new Brazilian and Australian flags, the old Japan and the new China. It is a true international emblem."

Povzeto po Coubertin (izbrani rokopisi II, stran 460, 1913) Zastavo MOK s petimi krogi je Coubertin predstavil na 20. obletnici ustanovitve MOK 23.6.1914 v Parizu in zanj barve krogov ne predstavljajo barv kontinentov, temveč barve državnih zastav.

Coubertin (Selected Writings II, p. 460, 1913) He designed and commissioned the Olympic flag with five rings to mark the 20th anniversary of the IOC's founding, on 23rd June 1914 in Paris. For Coubertin the colours of the rings do not represent the colours of the continents, but the colours which appeared in all the different national flags at the time.

Olimpijski ogenj

The Olympic Flame

Olimpijski ogenj, kot ga danes poznajo praktično po vsem svetu, je prvič vzplamtel pred sedemdesetimi leti. Nemški profesor Carl Diem je prišel na zamisel, da bi v antični Olimpiji prižgali ogenj in ga kot štafeto prenesli v Nemčijo, ki je leta 1936 gostila OI v Berlinu. S tem so simbolno povezali antični in moderni olimpizem.

The Olympic Flame, as it is known today all over the world, appeared for the first time seventy years ago at the 1936 Games in Berlin. German professor Carl Diem had the idea to light the Olympic flame in Olympia and bring it to Germany with a Torch Relay. This symbolically connected the ancient and the modern Olympism.

Olimpijski ogenj je med maloštevilnimi simboli, ki jih pozna ves svet. Pomeni mir in svobodo, je več kot samo ritual, saj presega kulturna, politična in religiozna ozadja. In s simboli je tako kot z ognjem; zahteva previdno uporabo, sicer lahko ugasne ali pa opeče.

The Olympic Flame is one of the few symbols known by the entire world. It represents peace and freedom, and it is more than just a ritual, because it exceeds the cultural, political and religious backgrounds. And symbols are like fire; they require careful usage, otherwise they can burn.

Tema štafete olimpijskega ognja je "popotovanje harmonije" in pomeni harmonijo športnega razvoja športnika ter miroljubno družbo ter varovanje človeškega dostojanstva. Gre za ravnovesje med človekom in naravo, med ljudmi in med telesom ter umom.

The theme of the Olympic Flame Relay is “the Journey of Harmony” and it means the harmony of the sport development of an athlete, a peaceful society and the preservation of human dignity. It is about the balance between humans and nature, between people, body and mind. Slovenska olimpijska delegacija na Igrah XXIX. olimpijade Peking, Kitajska 8. – 24. Avgust 2008

Republika Slovenija Republika Slovenija je postala samostojna država po 10-dnevni vojni leta 1991. Leži v srcu Evrope in pokriva 20.273 km2, a vendarle kljub svoji geografski majhnosti zajema različne pokrajine: Alpe, Sredozemlje, Panonsko nižino, Dinarsko gorovje in vsaka ima svoje edinstvene značilnosti. Večino države zajema kontinentalno podnebje z mrzlimi zimami in vročimi poletji. Zaradi svoje lege ima Slovenija pomembno tranzitno vlogo, ki jo je držala tudi skozi zgodovino. Predstavlja križišče evropskih poti, kjer so se mešali različni vplivi in interesi. Tako smo se Slovenci že od prvih naselbin v 6. stoletju stalno borili za teritorij proti germanskim, romanskim, madžarskim in ostalim slavonskim narodom. Slovenija ima 2 milijona prebivalcev, od katerih je 87,9 % Slovencev. Uradni jezik je slovenščina. Glavno mesto je Ljubljana, ki je tudi največje mesto, hkrati pa politični, administrativni, ekonomski, izobraževalni in kulturni center Slovenije. Slovenščina je igrala posebno vlogo skozi slovensko zgodovino in je še vedno smatrana kot temelj nacionalne identitete. Ne gelede na različne vplive, še posebej germanskega, je Slovenija ohranila svoje jezikovne posebnosti, od katerih je najbolj značilna »dvojina«, ki se uporablja za dve osebi ali stvari v vseh delih govora. Slovenija je že leta 1992 zaprosila za sklenitev Evropskega sporazuma o pridružitvi k Evropski Uniji, katerega je 10. junija 1996 podpisala, veljati pa je začel s 1. februarjem 1999. Decembra 2002 so se končala pristopna pogajanja in Evropski svet je ocenil, da bo Slovenija, kot tudi ostale države pristopnice, pripravljena na članstvo do 1. maja 2004. 23. marca 2003 smo Slovenci vključitev Slovenije v Evropsko Unijo podprli na referendumu in s 1. majem 2004 postali državljani Evropske Unije. Slovenija je s tem okrepila svojo mednarodno vlogo, utrdila položaj samostojne države, svojo prepoznavnost in gospodarsko moč, povečale so se možnosti študija znotraj EU in ne na zadnje je slovenščina postala eden izmed uradnih jezikov EU.

Republic of Slovenia The Republic of Slovenia, which became independent after a 10-day war in 1991, lies at the heart of Europe. It covers only 20,273 square kilometers, but in spite of its geographically small size, it is a convergence point of a range of different landscapes: Alpine and Mediterranean, the Pannonian plains and Dinaric, each of which has its own characteristics and unique features. Most of the country has a continental climate, with cold winters and warm summers. Because of its geographical position, the territory of the present Slovenia has, throughout history, been an important transit area, a crossroads of trans–European routes, where varied influences and interests have mixed. From the first settlements in the 6th century onwards, Slovenes have constantly struggled for territory, fighting Germanic, Romanic, Hungarian and other Slavonic nations in the process. Slovenia has a population of 2 million, of whom 87.9 per cent are Slovenes. The official language is Slovene. The capital, Ljubljana, is the largest city, as well as the political, administrative, economic, educational and cultural center of Slovenia. The Slovene language, the South Slavonic language, has played a special role throughout Slovene history and is still considered one of the foundations of the national identity. In spite of various, in particular Germanic, influences, the country has preserved its special linguistic features, the most notable of which is the “dual” form, the grammatical number used for two people or things in all the inflected parts of speech. Slovenia applied for full membership in the European Union as early as 1992 and signed the Europe Agreement, which came into force in February 1999. Negotiations were concluded in 2002 and the European Council decided that Slovenia, along with other accession countries, would be prepared to acquire membership by May 2004. In March 2003, the citizens of Slovenia voted in favour of full membership, joining the European Union on 1 May 2004. As a Member State, Slovenia intensified its international role, strengthened its position as an independent country, its identity and economic efficiency, and improved the opportunities for education in other Member States; last but not least, the Slovene language became one of the official languages of the European Union and as from 1.1.2007 Slovenia accepted Euro as their own money currency.

Some Important Historical Milestones after 568:

Dominance of the Slav people in the territory of Slovenia.

7 to 11 century:

The Slavic Duchy of Carantania, the oldest-known, independent Slavonic state in this area.

745:

Carantania became a vassal duchy under the rule of the Frankish Empire, which began to spread Christianity. The Slavs converted to Christianity and gradually lost independence.

9th century:

The spread of the Frankish feudal system and the beginning of the formation of the Slovene nation. At the beginning of the 9th century, the Franks removed the Carantanian princes and replaced them with their own border dukes. The Frankish feudal system started spreading to the Slovene territory.

around 1000:

The appearance of the “Freising” manuscripts, the first-known text written in the Slovene and Slavic dialect in Latin script (a few prayers written in the Slovene language of the time).

10th century:

The beginning of the development of the Carniola, Styria, Carinthia and Gorizia regions, and intensive German colonization.

11th to 14th centuries: The development of medieval towns in Slovenia. 14th to 15th centuries: Most of the territory of Slovenia including all its hereditary estates is taken over by the Habsburgs. 15th century:

Turkish invasions begin.

15 to 17 centuries: Peasant revolts: Dissatisfaction with the ineffective feudal defences against tribute, as well as bonded labour, brought about peasant revolts. A greater revolt in 1515 took place across nearly the entire Slovene territory. th

1550:

Protestantism and the first book written in Slovene: In the middle of the 16th century, the Reformation, mainly Lutheranism, spread across Slovene territory, helping to create the foundations of the Slovene literary language. In 1550, Primož Trubar published the first two books in Slovene, Katekizem and Abecednik (Catechism and Abecedary). By that time, around 500 books had been written, among them the first Slovene grammar and, in 1584, Dalmatin’s translation of the entire Bible.

18th century:

Enlightenment and compulsory universal education: The reign of Emperor Joseph II, which saw, among other things, the introduction of compulsory education and primary education conducted in Slovene (1774), together with the start of cultural–linguistic activities by Slovene intellectuals; it was a time of Slovene national revival and of the birth of the Slovene nation in the modern sense of the word.

1809-1813:

Illyrian Provinces: At the time of the Napoleonic Wars, Napoleon captured south–eastern Slovene regions and created the Illyrian Provinces of the French state, with Ljubljana as the capital.

Some Important Historical Milestones 1848:

Unified Slovenia, the first Slovene political programme: The most important Slovene poet, France Prešeren, made his contribution to overcoming language regionalism; he asserted the right to a unified written language for all Slovenes.

Slovenska hiša med POI v Pekingu Olimpijske igre so športni dogodek, ki s svojo neizmerno razširjenostjo in dosegom omogočajo vsem državam udeleženkam poleg udejstvovanja na tem velikem športnem dogodku tudi dobro promocijo države. V Olimpijskem komiteju Slovenije se tega zavedamo, zato pripravljajo projekt Slovenska hiša, Peking 2008, katerega namen je predvsem združeno predstaviti državo Slovenijo. Olimpijske igre so prav gotovo eden izmed dogodkov, ki je po odmevnosti in zanimanju posameznikov z različnih področij skoraj zagotovo na prvem mestu in je dogodek, ki bo v avgustu deležen velike pozornosti številnih držav s celega sveta. Ob tej priložnosti Olimpijski komite Slovenije skupaj s Slovensko turistično organizacijo in drugimi domačimi in tujimi partnerji pripravlja projekt, ki združuje športne, gospodarske in turistične interese in je javnosti predstavljen pod imenom Slovenska hiša, Peking 2008. Namen projekta je zagotoviti celovito promocijo Slovenije s skupnim in povezanim nastopom na področju gospodarstva, športa, turizma in kulture, ki se ob politični podpori med seboj prepletajo in dopolnjujejo. Gospodarska promocija bo potekala na dveh ravneh – sodelujoča podjetja v projektu kot sponzorji bodo imela možnost udeležbe na poslovnih konferencah, organiziranih individualnih poslovnih srečanjih na podlagi oddanih predstavitev podjetij po zainteresiranih področjih ter možnost predstavitve svojih izdelkov in storitev. Poleg tega pa se bodo v hiši odvijali tudi različni sprejemi državnikov in sprejemi poslovnih partnerjev s Kitajske, ki jih bodo sodelujoči v projektu povabili v Slovensko hišo. Kot smo že omenili, je namen tega projekta predstaviti Slovenijo tudi kot zanimivo turistično destinacijo, za kar bo poskrbela Slovenska turistična organizacija kot nosilka turistične promocije Slovenije. V Slovenski hiši bo pripravila različne delavnice, novinarsko konferenco in sprejem za največje kitajske organizatorje potovanj. Hiša pa bo predstavljala tudi medijsko stičišče za širšo slovensko delegacijo v Pekingu, v kateri bodo poleg na gospodarstvo in turizem vezana dogajanja, potekale še redne novinarske konference za slovensko športno delegacijo, sprejemi za predstavnike športnih zvez in sprejemi ob odmevnih rezultatih slovenskih športnikov. Torej, Slovenska hiša bo v Pekingu osrednje stičišče športnih, gospodarskih in turističnih interesov, informacije o dogajanju v hiši pa so dostopne tudi na spletni strani www.slovenskahisa.si, v živo pa nas lahko obišete na spodjem naslovu. 斯洛⽂尼亚房⼦ / Slovenska hiša / Slovenian House 北京稻⾹湖国际休闲区 (3 楼) / Beijing Daoxianghu Lakeside Resort (Building Nr. 3) 海淀区苏家坨乡 / Sujiatuo, Haidian District 北京，中国 / Beijing, China

The Slovenian House During The Beijing 2008 Olympic Games The Olympic Games, the greatest worldwide sports event, provide an excellent opportunity to all participating countries to promote their countries. Consequently, the Olympic Committee of Slovenia, being fully aware of this exceptional opportunity, is busy preparing its project “Slovenian House, Beijing 2008” in order to make it possible for its partners to make a complete presentation of Slovenia at this special event. Undoubtedly, the Olympic Games rank first among those special events which are followed and enjoyed by individuals and countries from all over the world. On this occasion, the Olympic Committee of Slovenia, in co-operation with the Slovenian Tourist Board and other indispensable national and foreign partners, is preparing a project, joining, hand in hand, sports, economic and tourism interests, presented to the general public as “Slovenian House, Beijing 2008”. The core objective of the project is to ensure harmonious and effective promotion of Slovenia - the task that will be carried out with due political support jointly by representatives of economy, tourism and culture. The promotion of Slovenian economy will be carried out on two levels. Firstly, the companies participating in the project as its sponsors will be able to participate in business conferences as well as in organized individual business meetings based on previously submitted company presentations per interested areas of activities during which they will be able to demonstrate their products and services. Secondly, the Slovenia House will be hosting various receptions given in the honour of state dignitaries and business partners from China, invited to the Slovenian House by the organizers of the project. As already mentioned, one of the objectives of the project is also to present Slovenia as an interesting destination for the tourists from abroad – the task that will be taken care of by the Slovenian Tourist Board, responsible for the promotion of Slovenian tourism. They will be organizing various workshops, a press conference and a reception for the major Chinese travelling agencies. Furthermore, the Slovenian House will serve as a Press Centre - a meeting point - for the Slovenian delegation in Beijing at large. There, along with the events related to economy and tourism, also regular press conferences for the Slovenian Olympic Delegation, receptions for representatives of sports federations and receptions organized to celebrate excellent sports results of the Slovenian Olympians, will be taking place. May we therefore cordially welcome you to the Slovenian House in Peking, the central meeting point of the interests of sport, economy and tourism!
