Զուլումն իջավ՝ հորս տունը կործանեց, Զալումն ելավ՝ սրտիս իղձը խափանեց, Հրդեհն ընկավ լափեց կարմիր վարդերս, Հեղեղն եկավ քշեց անգին զարդերս: Նարգիզ, շուշան զառամ-թառամ խոնացան, Ալվան հավքեր թռան եղան ցիրուցան, Բաղ ու բախչես ավեր ու խոպան մնաց, Դառը դատա, դառ քրտինքս զուր գնաց: Օրով- զորով էսպես զուլում չի եղել, Մարդկանց արնով սարեր, քարեր ողողել. Հարամ-զարամ եղավ կյանքը, հացն ու ջուր, Անտեր որբեր դառանք, ընկանք դռնեդուռ: Աքան-ցաքան բլբուլ ու վարդ, էն ղշեր, Թռան, թողին իրանց տեղակ սուր փշեր ... Հազար ընտրեմ, հազար փնտրեմ՝ յար չկա, Կոտրած սրտին կրկին բուժող ճար չկա:

http://www.armeniaweek.com/june282002/photos/sports_2.jpg By Michael Harutiunian ArmeniaWeek sports reporter Shirak FC kicked off its campaign in the European Intertoto Cup competition by traveling to Portugal to face Santa Clara. The game on June 22 ended in a 2-0 defeat for the Armenian side, who now have it all to do in the return leg in Gyumri on June 29. The first half ended goalless, giving the visitors real hopes of pulling off a surprise. But Joro Pedro broke the deadlock in the 57th minute and Brazilian Brando made it 2-0 in the 83rd minute to give the home side a comfortable margin to take to Armenia. Shirak (pictured above) must now score three times without reply by the Portuguese if it is to win the match and progress into the second round of the competition. Shirak is managed by Andranik Adamian, who also coaches the Armenian national team. It earned entry to the competition – the lowest level European trophy – after finishing fourth in the Armenian league last season. Shirak was one of 40 clubs taking part in the first round matches. The three teams remaining in the competition at the end will have the right to enter the first round of the UEFA Cup – the second tier trophy in Europe. Under UEFA’s ranking system, Shirak has to compete in the first round for the right to be among 20 sides joined in the second round by 12 more teams from countries with higher rankings. The 16 winners of the second round will enter the third round, where a further eight clubs will join the tournament. The 12 winners of that round will play knock-out matches until three teams are left. UEFA CUP Armenia has two entrants in this year’s UEFA Cup. Zvartnots and Spartak Yerevan qualified by finishing second and third in last season’s Armenian league. The two teams (pictured right) played each other in Armenia’s league on Saturday, a match that ended with honors even at 1-1. Zvartnots and Spartak must get through a qualifying round before joining Europe’s major teams in the fight for the cup. Ten groups have been created according to a ranking system – the winners of each qualifying group will go through to the first round draw. Zvartnots has been drawn in group two and will play Primorie of Slovenia, while Spartak in group seven will meet Servet of Switzerland. The first matches will take place at the end of August. Armenian Premier League The sixth round of matches was marked by the first victory this season for the bottom placed club Lori. They won 2-1 away to Lernagorts in Kapan, coming from behind after the home side went ahead in the eighth minute with a goal by Samvel Nikolian. Artiom Zalinian equalized in the 29th minute to revive Lori’s hopes of avoiding defeat, before a second goal on the stroke of half time, by Tigran Hovanissian, gave them the lead. Lori hung on throughout the second half to record a morale-boosting victory. Pyunic’s game against Shirak was postponed because of the latter’s involvement in the Intertoto Cup. They slipped to third place after the 1-1 draw between Zvartnots and Spartak, but have two games in hand over their rivals. Results: Ararat 3 – 2 Artsakh Spartak 1 – 1 Zvartnots Mika 2 – 1 Kotayk Banants 2 – 0 Dinamo-2000 Lernagorts 1 – 2 Lori

http://www.armeniaweek.com/june282002/photos/writers_1.jpg By Gayane Abrahamian ArmeniaWeek reporter Book lovers made last Sunday (June 23) a special day at Charles Aznavour Square in Yerevan as they marked the “Day of Armenian Books”. About 60 publishing houses set up booths, with shelves offering the work of Armenian and Diaspora authors. Organized by Mesrop Archbishop Aschian, the Ministry of Culture, Sport and Youth Affairs, the Municipality of Yerevan and the Union of Writers, the day also marked the birthday of Catholicos Karekin I, who would have turned 70. “The book is the blood of Armenians,” the late Catholicos of all Armenians used to say. “I learned from him how to respect a book and to enjoy its smell and taste,” said the Archbishop, opening the day of festivities. “All of you paid tribute of respect to the memory of the Catholicos by your presence. You proved that the Armenian book still has a reader. Let’s do everything to keep the Armenian book in our hearts like a symbol of beauty, like a spring of knowledge.” While many paid respects, few bought books. Many, however, enjoyed the free entertainment including “Pegas” modern dance ensemble of Nork’s Hayordats House, “Asup” tap-dancing ensemble, “Barekamutiun” ensemble and circus ensemble. Ancient Armenian carpets were also on display and various musical groups performed from a stage next to Moscow Cinema. Organizers hope the day will become an annual affair. The first was a continuation of the Conference of Writers, which from June 16-22 brought to Armenia 50 writers from 15 countries, who met their Armenian colleagues and readers. Harutiun Saghrian, leader of a group of Armenian writers living in Los Angeles, said the most important part of the conference “was that we started to know each other, we got the possibility to discuss together the questions that concerned us”. During the conference a fund was established for the development and promotion of Armenian literature. The first donation, $1,000, was contributed by the Writers Union and by Saghrian. http://www.armeniaweek.com/june282002/photos/writers_2.jpg Part of the day-long event (from 11 a.m.-10 p.m.) included lectures and discussions held in a conference hall at the Hotel Yerevan. The head of the Union of Writers, Levon Ananian said surveys indicate that the tradition of reading is losing its place in Armenia. “To put it mildly, Armenians are far from reading books,” Ananian said. “The gap between readers and books damages the collective image of the new generation and as a result, in this century of total globalization, our nation is gradually losing its image and its values.” Poet Manik Achemian and writer Hovik Hoveyan, who attended the festival, are more optimistic. “We are the nation that during the days of emigration always swaddled children in scrolls,” Hoveyan said. “We saved and rescued both our children and the books. This festival must remain in our hearts every day and reading must become an ordinary demand.” Photos by Azatuhi Mnatsakanian ©Copyright ArmeniaWeek June 28, 2002. all rights reserved.

http://www.armeniaweek.com/june282002/photos/architect_1.jpg By Zara Chatinian ArmeniaWeek reporter The Chief Architect of Yerevan says his position should be elected so that holders of the office will have popular authority for decisions made about development in the city. Narek Sarkissian believes elected officials should fill the Municipality's top executive positions and the city allowed to control its own budget. His comments in an interview with ArmeniaWeek came in response to criticisms from some Yerevan residents that the city’s parks are being destroyed by the boom in building cafes. He defends the explosive growth of cafes in the parks where, particularly in the city center, much of the grass and trees have given way to concrete floors and wooden canopies, with the peace broken by blaring music and neon displays at night. “The city does not have a budget to take care of the lighting in the streets and parks, and water and electricity supplies in the green zones,” says Sarkissian. “I don’t think I reduced the green zones in Yerevan. I prefer having to lose 20 percent of the land to be able to save the remaining 80 percent, rather than having the whole park decay and be covered in trash.” Under Armenian law, land in the park zones can only be leased, not sold. Café owners typically win leases for five years at auction, where there is fierce competition for plots. Land can be leased directly to an investor only by the order of the Government. Potential investors have to send application forms to the Mayor’s office with detailed explanations of the project and the place where they wish to set up business. The Department of Urban Development and Architecture at the Municipality then studies the application. Within two months, an auction is held and the contract signed with the winning bidder. Auctions for café plots in downtown Yerevan typically attract bids by five or six investors. There are eight cafes either operating or under construction in the square around the Opera House - more than twice the number just two years ago - and an investor has just leased a ninth plot, though construction has not started yet. There are now around 400 places for people to sit and drink in cafes in the square. (see related story) Sarkissian (pictured left) says: “Together with a working group, I have prepared a memorandum stating that no more cafes can be built in the area of the Opera House. “We also intend to warn café owners about loud music, and encourage them to construct benches and water fountains for people to use in the areas outside the cafes.” No more cafes will be opened in the parks in the city’s Khanjian Street, where at least a dozen new businesses have opened this summer. “Its not that we decided not to do it. There is physically no more space for another café,” admits Sarkissian. He accepts that many people disagree with his decision to license so many cafes in the center of the city. But he argues that this is the right decision at this time because it helps to encourage employment and boost economic activity. “Some day the residents of Yerevan may choose to destroy the cafes and plant grass again instead. In this case, the Municipality will have to end the leases and reimburse the cafes. “But it must also have the means to ensure it can take care of the land because there is a vast green zone in the city that must be maintained.” The loss of green space and trees to cafes and loud music greatly bothers some who grew up to appreciate the peace and quiet offered by Yerevan’s parks. “Cafes and coffee drinking have become the national notion of taking a rest,” says Albert Zourabian, President of the Union of Architects. “There are other ways of relaxing, and its not necessarily in the café. What about those who are encouraged by their doctor to walk in the fresh air, or mothers out with their children?” Sarkissian insists the Municipality cannot afford to maintain the city’s parks at present and that this is the best compromise available. And there seems no end to the boom. The Chief Architect adds that demand for places to open cafes in the city center still far outstrips supply.

I’m so glad that Armenians are not forgetting so happy to see events like this MOvses

Conductor-Composer Altunian's 100th Anniversary To Be Marked YEREVAN (Noyan Tapan)—The 100th birthday anniversary of the outstanding Armenian conductor-composer Tatul Altunian will be marked this year. Deputy Minister of Culture, Youth Affairs and Sport of Armenia Karen Aristakesian announced at a press conference on June 27 that a jubilee commission has been set up following the premier's order in this connection. The deputy minister emphasized that after Komitas the talented master continued the search and treatment of Armenian folk songs, making them purely national, without any excesses. For 40 years Tatul Altunian educated people with his folk songs, and created traditions of folk songs. Karen Aristakesian pointed out that a collection of Altunian's selected works has been published on the occasion of the jubilee. Lectures are due to be delivered at the State Conservatory after Komitas, and TV and radio programs are expected to be organized as well. The Song and Dance Ensemble founded by the Maestro, as well as other deserved groups and individual performers of Armenia will perform. An exhibition dedicated to the life and activities of the Maestro will open at the Archive Agency. The events will end in a jubilee concert at the Spendiarian National Academic Opera and Ballet Theater.

by asbarez.com Noah's Ark Replica To Be Built On Ararat YEREVAN (Armenpress)—A replica of Noah's Ark is going to be built on top of Mount Ararat in Turkey to attract tourists, "Ananova.com" reported. It will house a museum, restaurants, a conference hall and shops to attract tourists back to a region that for years suffered the ravages of war. Mount Ararat stands on the border between Turkey and Armenia. Turkish Tourism Minister Mustafa Tasar told Turkish newspaper Milliyet that a five-mile-long cable car will take visitors from the foot of the mountain to the summit. Mount Ararat has attracted considerable attention from archaeologists in the last decade who have been searching for remnants of the "real" Noah's Ark. Authorities in the region have been endeavoring to attract tourists back to the area since the end of the war between the Workers Party of Kurdistan (PKK) and the Turkish Army.

YEREVAN (Noyan Tapan)—Starting July 1st new 1000 dram bills (about $1.7) will begin circulation in Armenia, said Gevorg Toumanian, head of the emmissional operations and monetary reserves of the Armenian Central Bank, at a June 27 press conference. According to him, the new bills are on 100 percent cotton paper. Regarding the degree of protection and recognition signs, there is a color portrait of Yeghishe Charents, and the bills have two spirals and threads. The elements printed on both sides add on each other to form a full image. Toumanian also said that the process of increasing the 5000 dram bill copies is underway, and added that it is planned to change and add protection signs, maintaining the looks of the bill. Toumanian also informed that in 2003, new 10,000 dram bills will appear in circulation as well. It is also envisaged to issue 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 dram coins. In Toumanian's words, the coins will be made of color metals and will be smaller in size than the current 10 dram coins

Armenian Cultural Center Set On Fire MOSCOW (Noyan Tapan) - The Armenian cultural center in Irkutsk was set on fire during the early hours of June 27. According to an Interfax report, those responsible used gasoline to set the building ablaze after breaking into the one-story center through a window. The damage to the building was complete, as firefighters unsuccessfully attempted to stop the flames. In related news, the Presidential Commission on Human Rights of Armenia received letters from the Russian Presidential Commission on Human Rights and the commissioner on Human Rights of Russia concerning the events that took place in Krasnodar. Both letters noted that the Krasnodar case is under control. According to one of the letters, the Krasnodar Internal Affairs Department had announced that 13 individuals had been arrested for the vandalism of Armenian churches. The Russian Commission on Human Rights also informed that they have applied to the Krasnodar government for additional information, which will be sent to their counterparts.
