"Винаги съм си мислел, че моментът, в който човек среща любовта на живота си, ще е като по филмите..."Хенри Пейдж е киноманиак и безнадежден романтик. Той чака любовта като на забавен кадър, любовта, от която сърцето замира и нищо друго вече не е от значение. Така че последният човек, в когото допуска, че може да се влюби, е Грейс. Грейс Таун не е обичайната филмова героиня. Облича се в размъкнати момчешки дрехи, мирише така, сякаш не се е къпала от седмици, и се подпира с бастун, докато ходи. Тя не се покрива с ничия представа за момиче мечта, но Хенри не може да спре да мисли за нея. Има нещо прекършено у ... |

The beginnings of Sofia University may be traced back to the year 1888, ten years after the end of the Russian-Turkish War, which had begun in 1877, and which resulted in a recreated Bulgarian state re-emerging on the map of Europe. The state was small in territory, as well as in population. The capital, Sofia, numbered not more than 20,000 inhabitants. However, in this semi-oriental city, a Higher Pedagogical Course was started in 1888, and it was this that later grew into a modern higher education institution. The subsequent founding of the University was a single act, but behind it stood ages of history. ... |

Препис: Д-р Николай Иванов Колев . ... "Драги читателю, В ръцете си държиш книга на Г. С. Раковски , публикувана за първи път преди 162 години и никога непреиздавана досега! В тази книга Раковски публикува за първи път в света съпоставка на българския със самскритския език и стига до извода, че огромно количество коренни думи са еднакви, както в българския така и в самскритския и имат същото значение. Това го води до извода, за древния произход на българския език, и за влиянието, което той е оказал на другите езици. Удивителен е преводът на цели самскритски изречения, с помощта на българския, говорен по негово ... |
