We should be happy to see that Vilnius is on the way on become the Europe’s friendliest city for bicyclists: the self government refused 3 million Euro for building new bicycle-tracks. We are also traffic so there is no need to be separated from cars traffic and drive in some narrow tracks. In purpose to make our trip safe, it was decided to ask us to wear special helmets and yellow light-reflecting vests.By Erika on Sunday, April 27 2008, 13:52 - Bright tomorrow's irony

Today we will be safe on the road, even if we gear up our vehicles. It has to be so. The 27 of April is The European road safety day. This day officially came into being last year. There was never unofficial one before.

How much time is needed to review 80000 pictures? This visual pleasure lasts just 15 minutes. It is absolutely true, the creators of the first and only Lithuanian photo movie, assured. They presented the result of a unique audiovisual project - a short photo film - to the public. The script was born when the 24 year old director, Jūratė Samulionytė was watching people busying themselves with everyday things and become bleary eyed, monotonous and bitter. The title of this film, declares a break from the ordinary - NOROUTINE.

How do Lithuanian writers of internet diaries live? A few weeks ago they met at the second Lithuanian bloggers conference BLOGin 2008 in Vilnius. The communication about the event was planned effectively - the tickets, worth a sell-out play, were all bought. Approximately 400 participants attended. This professionally organized meeting of webloggers reflected the current situation in the Lithuanian blogosphere.

After the collapse of Soviet Union the consequences of the social and ideological contradictions can still be sensed in different areas of life. Architecture is not an exception. Is Soviet modernism a gloomy heritage or an unique trace in history?01

Warm spring invites to poke our noses out, but there's no need to stay inside while the rain is gushing out. Many concerts, specialized conferencies and "Cinema's spring" ("Kino pavasaris") are offered in April.

Almost every occurrence and thing has its own day – water, food, freedom of speech – all we need to choose is what and when to celebrate. Perhaps we shouldn’t try too hard and go watch a play on World Theatre Day. Instead we could expand our vocabularies with a theatrical expression “break a leg”. 21

For nine years in a row now UNESCO tickles poets’ heels with feathers so that they continue writing and for all their work that does not go straight into the rubbish bin to be heard. March 21st is the day when we ought to remember our favourite sonnet by Shakespeare, wear our bow tie or net stockings and write an e-mail that rhymes to our friends and colleagues.

Last year the global calendar was extended with one more international
day, 3rd March, which is dedicated to Freedom of Music. This is a relatively
two-sided issue – on one hand music gives wings for self expression, on
the other hand the wings of music itself are clipped so that it doesn’t
fly too far away.
