When you need to drop some excessive weight, it's intriguing to turn to weight loss products.

It's a good call, but not all of them are scientifically proven to work.

Many have mixed user reviews, many cause dangerous side effects and some of them just simply do nothing.

It is okay to be suspicious, that's why we give a refund guarantee.

Born in 1926 in the Czech Republic, he started working for the Moravian Museum in Brno in 1962, and subsequently, at Purkyně University (now Mazaryk University) of Brno, where he spent most of his professional career.

EXARC (the ICOM Affiliated Organisation for Archaeological Open-Air
Museums), jointly with long-time member Urgeschichtemuseum MAMUZ Schloss
Asparn/Zaya, will organise an international conference near Vienna,
Austria, 25 - 27 September.

With publications like “From Stonehenge to Las Vegas” (Holtorf 2005) and
“The Plastic Venuses, Archaeological Tourism In Post-Modern Society”
(Melotti 2011) it has become clear that archaeological reconstructions have
found their way to the mainstream public. It is not anymore about carefully
made “authentic” reconstructions in a showcase or open-air museum context,
we are talking about product placement, supporting modern messages with
archaeological imagery, about archaeology lending its face to commerce.

For its 10th anniversary, CAMOC will be back to Moscow, the city where it

*Memory and Migration*

Migrants created cities and they continue to give cities shape and meaning.
We, and our parents, may have been born and brought up in the city, but we
are all in one way or another the children of migrants, migrants from the
rural hinterland or from another country, who found the lure of the city
irresistible. Migrants

Beyond the new museology? Taking stock of inclusion, access and decolonisation

Culture across Boundaries

Conference on museum challenges and possibilities for future Nordic
collaboration

Nuuk, Greenland

29th September to 1st October 2015

institutions is growing, because there is a increasing demand for quality
and a decreasing flow of resources. This is especially important for smaller
museums and museums that operate more isolated. Many Nordic countries have
museums in areas of less inhabited regions. Likewise, the cultures

In the wake of the Global Financial Crisis, funds are tighter, alongside increasing pressure to remain relevant to visitors, funders and science practitioners. Arcane knowledge must be balanced with popularization, and there are increasing calls for enabling the public

During its General Assembly in New York this March, the UN approved the new Arms Trade Treaty (ATT). This was quite a break-through in international diplomacy and the result of negotiations started in 2006. After several intermediate steps, the ATT text was finalized March 28, 2013. It was passed by the UN General Assembly on April 2 and opened for signatures on June 3. So far 77 countries have signed it and 2 countries have ratified it.
