samples on display it offers a glimpse into the glory days of the Slovenian town of Domžale known far and wide for its straw hat production And this was no small industry: Before the Second World War it was customary in the West to wear hats when outdoors and straw hats were preferred in hot weather or while working The town began as a tiny village with access to fields of wheat the straw from which was used to produce hats and baskets and other dry goods local families would braid the straw together into usable threads called butarice, which could then be sewn in the hats These woven braids were either used at home to prepare finished products some of the wealthier Hapsburg mercantile families then set up factories for making straw hats there were 25 straw hat factories of varying size in tiny Domžale The town population rose from around 1,200 in the mid-1800s to over 2,100 by 1920 and those factories produced around one million straw hats a year 390 residents of Domžale moved to the United States headhunted because of their expertise in straw hat making Many of the best straw hat makers were women and the museum displays photos of Domžale ladies teaching a factory full of Americans how to sew butarice.  straw hat making is just a boutique art form practiced by a few enthusiastic locals a reminder that sometimes the smallest of towns can have a big impact on history The

strong position to progress to the second qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League when they stunned NK Domzale It was without doubt a memorable night for Balzan FC who arguably produced their best performances in European football as they outplayed their more-quoted opponents throughout their match once Aleksa Andreijic put the Maltese side ahead there was no way back for the home side who conceded two more goals until the hour through a penalty conversion from Jake Grech and Peter Owomela Domzale did pull a goal back with 30 minutes to go but Balzan managed to administer their lead to take a commanding advantage for next week’s second leg Read full story on sport.timesofmalta.com please register for free or log in to your account Balzan coach Oliver Spiteri has urged his players to keep up their focus levels as they look to finish the job against Slovenian side NK Domzale and progress to the second qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League Buoyed by last week’s impressive 4-1 win in Slovenia the Maltese Premier League club are huge favourites to set up a second qualifying round tie against Liechtenstein’s FC Vaduz or Neman Grodno Spiteri told the Times of Malta that it would be foolish of his players if they had to take the pitch against Domzale with the impression that the job is already done as he expects the Slovenian side to do everything in their power to overturn the tie “It’s very important that we take the pitch fully concentrated and focused as the tie is far from over,” Spiteri said Read full story on sport.timesofmalta.com In its first year it screened two films per month so that in 2017 it had 655 screenings of 188 films that together with all the film related activities attracted more than 34,000 visitors The cinema is located in one of the oldest buildings in Domžale that served as a cinema after World War II but has since been renovated and is now home to a music school FNE: What is the biggest challenge of running a cinema such as yours Jure Matičič: I like to think that small cinemas always have big challenges ahead We operate in the outskirts of the capital city with the largest art house cinema in the country just 14 kilometers away and the biggest multiplex even closer One major issue is the fact that we are not only a cinema where there is always a struggle to secure as many screenings as possible in a month classical music and puppet plays can complement our cinema programme and make us very versatile but we hope to expand next year by building a very cozy intimate small screen that will give us more room in our programming As with every other smaller cinema in Europe we lack the staff and the financing to be able to exploit all of our potentials but we can rely on very good support from the local community that backs us when there is time to invest in new technologies or new programming initiatives FNE: What kinds of films do you prefer to screen and why Jure Matičič: Our mission statement from day one is to screen good films and that enables us to explore a very broad selection of titles We try to screen as many art house titles as possible and that includes European films American independent productions and all the films from around the world we can lay our hands on We also screen big studio titles if they fit our programming concept and so far we have had very good access to those kinds of films not to mention a variety of European and world cinema titles In the abundance of films provided by our distributors we try to curate the programme so that we can meet the needs of our audience and give them an opportunity to discover new directors for this we sometimes rely on temporary imports Special attention is given to national titles where we try to bring as many independent national films as possible to our screen We cater to film lovers and occasional filmgoers alike so we always try to make sure our patrons will be able to find the right film at the right time We go to great lengths to make Mestni kino Domžale a pleasant where you can always experience a good film Why are these important and what do they achieve Jure Matičič: Small cinemas can greatly benefit from the membership in Europa Cinemas that is becoming increasingly important for many small to mid-size cinemas that are struggling with insufficient national support schemes What is even more important is the chance to meet people that run cinemas across Europe to exchange ideas and opinions on matters that can be as simple as the ticketing software we use FNE: How does a cinema like your cinema serve the local community Jure Matičič: We connect as much as possible with the local community and in a way we are a very important part of the social life in Domžale and surrounding communities What we try to offer is an event hub where you can have something interesting every day so we engage with local audiences through different events and initiatives In the summer we operate an open air cinema in a nearby park In five years it has become one of the biggest and most anticipated summer events in town But as much as we always keep the needs of our neighbours in mind as we have been consistently attracting audiences from the broader region FNE: Can you say something about your work with young audiences Jure Matičič: Young audiences are a very important part of our work as we try to bring cinema-going closer to young people some of them even enable them to see a film for free special premieres of national films for children and teenagers all this with the intention to make our cinema an inviting space for the younger audiences But the main objective is still to get young people to fall in love with film to be enchanted by it and to learn how to appreciate it as an art form FNE: What about the digitalisation of cinemas How it is affecting your work and your cinema Jure Matičič: Going digital was very important for us as we were a relatively “young” cinema at the time The transition from 35mm to digital has provided us with the biggest jump in attendance so far and it has opened up so many programming options In a small exhibition market where films were most commonly distributed on one 35mm copy but with digital we are able to screen the film from day one and we can have a more diverse range of titles that we can keep in the programme for a longer period of time There is a very different workflow with digital ironically even more work intensive than before more effective trailer and advertising placing Click Here for Statements from European

NK Domzale in this evening’s Europa League first qualifying round first leg tie at the Centenary Stadium (kick-off: 6.30pm) The 2019 FA Trophy winners are bracing themselves for a tough test against their Slovenian opponents who are bidding to make up for last season’s disappointment of failing to make the group stages of the Europa League after bowing out in the second qualifying round “Playing in Europe is a great opportunity for our club and we must embrace it,” Scerri told Times of Malta “Last season we could not have hope for a better ending to our campaign after lifting the FA Trophy but now it is important that we continue to step up “We are aware that we are going to play against a very strong side but we must make the most of the home advantage and our goal is to try and get the best possible result ahead of next week’s second leg “When you play against quality opposition tactical organization is crucial to get a positive result and although we will try to play our game

I don't think it was a penalty in the first half but we've got to get on with it and we ended up losing the game.'  obviously not the result but we've got to go there positive - first game On Dimitri Payet: 'You're going to miss a player like Dimi we've got a good enough team to come here and win but we never done that 'Obviously these games are tough but we didn't play well tonight - we better play well on Thursday.' SAM CUNNINGHAM: West Ham United were rust ravaged against Slovenian minnows NK Domzale and will certainly need a shot in the arm to progress to the next qualifying round of the Europa League after a humiliating defeat All is to play for when the two officially open the Olympic Stadium next Thursday and West Ham will be desperate not to make a grand entrance to their much anticipated new home with an embarrassing slip-up the second time after Mark Noble had equalised as West Ham’s disorganised defence was easily exposed by a side who have not even finished in the top two in Slovenia’s top flight for five years CLICK HERE FOR FULL STORY Man-of-the-match Matic Crnic - who played magnificently and grabbed a brace - is getting a standing ovation as he makes his way off the pitch I've just let out a noise I've never heard come out of my mouth and it's due to a fine shot from Crnic who have already started this season look much stronger at the end in a central position; he unleashes a brilliant shot Adrian gets to it at full stretch - amazing save - then a Domzale man just has to tap in But Adrian gets up and pulls off an extraordinary save for a corner He could well have kept his side in this tie with those two worldies The ball falls to Carroll on the edge of the box but a Domzale defender comes out quickly to block The home side lump it up field and Adrian rushes out of his box to clear out of play bent ball 'round the corner from Alvir finds Crnic and he's one-on-one down the left with Noble The Irons skipper does just enough to deflect the shot over the bar Ten minutes to go and West Ham make their first change comes off while 16-year-old former Benfica whizzkid Domingos Quina comes on Domzale just don't have the quality to engineer a clear-cut chance with many men forward and Obiang dispossesses Crnic on the edge of the box.. Majer - not closed down quickly enough - hits a stinging effort at goal from 25 yards that's Domzale's nickname - are very much ambushing West Ham as a gang A corner comes in and a Domzale man takes a swipe but Byram does well to block And it's a change of system for the Hammers with Nordtveit moving to right back and Kouyate at centre half All the play in the last 10 minutes has been in West Ham's half They don't look like getting back into this game any time soon goes down in the box but the referee doesn't give a third penalty. He judges Obiang to have made a legal tackle Obiang had a hold of his arm outside the box and I would have given a free-kick just outside Antonio - once again - is nowhere to be seen at right back and it's a great save from Adrian to flick the ball around the post I’m not sure what right back Michail Antonio has been doing all match but it hasn’t been playing right back Horvat gets a yellow for a pull back on Obiang with the Hammer driving forward with the ball That caution was probably for a combination of fouls from the centre midfielder West Ham then put a ball into the box but Maraval flies out to collect He's certainly putting himself in the shop window today and he looks to be oozing confidence as he tries a neat trick-flick to a team-mate blocked by a defender and out for a corner The ball drops to Noble 20 yards out and he catches the shot cleanly and Antonio is so far out of position at right back! Crnic drifts forward easily from the wing with Nordtveit stepping over the ball/through his legs Antonio and Nordtveit have not covered themselves in glory throughout this match and that goal highlights that point completely Antonio hurls in another big throw but Carroll - who is feeding off scraps - can't get to the ball cleanly Crnic goes down under a challenge and he looks in a bit of pain as he holds his hip. The 24-year-old should be alright to run it off though Bilic said yesterday that his players were mostly still only around 80 per cent to full match fitness and it is showing out there on a cut-up pitch Feghouli whips over a corner and fellow new signing Nordtveit rises highest but heads over Domzale right back Brachi had yet another chance to get a good ball into the box but yet again failed to deliver appropriately Free-kick to the home side 22 yards out as Antonio bundles Crnic clumsily over as he makes his way towards the Hammers goal. A decent effort from Morel but it was always going over and Adrian watches it sail behind The Hammers have been working the ball into the final third better in the last few minutes and Obiang looks for Byram but is just off Maraval hasn't really had much work to do apart from conceding a penalty and Domzale then come forward! Left back Balkovec curls in a stunning cross from the left which finds Alvir unmarked in the box but his free header from around eight yards out is off target West Ham were all over the place at the back and he should have punished them An interesting West Ham corner comes in deep Domzale haven't been too disheartened by the equaliser and they keep coming forward with verve An intricate few passes outside the area nearly finds centre forward Mance but it's just cut out by Nordtveit with goalscorer Crnic cutting inside from the flank and fizzing a low shot just past the far post but Feghouli keeps his feet to win a free kick and his delivery only just misses the Hammers heads in the penalty area Slaven Bilic is sat up in the stands serving a touchline ban from the Astra Giurgiu when West Ham exited the Europa League at the start of last season He’s had plenty to ponder over so far Maraval came charging off his line and cleaned out West Ham defender Reid You would expect West Ham to get back into this match with the squad they have and they go direct this time as Antonio launches a long throw into the box but goalkeeper Maraval can gather West Ham's midfield aren't close enough to their defenders and the home side have a lot of space going forward A shot is hit at goal and Nordtveit is adjudged to have handled the ball on his debut Crnic steps up and emphatically strikes it past Adrian and then nearly turned a defender to get a shot away in the box Carroll collects a lofted ball down the right flank superbly plucking it out of the sky with his right foot and is tugged down by Horic just outside the right-hand side of the penalty box It's a free-kick and the centre half is lucky to escape a booking which Carroll wins at the back post - on the stretch in the air - but a team-mate cannot convert the ball home but a naturalised Slovenian citizen - has pulling the strings in central midfield for Domzale New West Ham signing Nordtveit - who usually plays in central midfield - looks comfortable at centre half have had most of the possession in the opening exchanges but Antonio has made a promising burst forward from right back for the Eastenders It's a big night at left back for Sam Byram The ex-Leeds United man - who usually plays on the right-hand side - is deputising for the injured Aaron Cresswell LUKE AUGUSTUS: West Ham recorded their first win of pre-season with an encouraging display against Karlsruher Sofiane Feghouli and Ashley Fletcher gave the Hammers a 3-0 victory in Austria The result will have come as a relief to Slaven Bilic who had seen his side lose twice and drawn twice prior to kick-off this pre-season CLICK HERE FOR FULL STORY Save @AdriSanMiguel! 👐 #DOMWHU #COYI pic.twitter.com/g4weqAh9OE Time to warm up 🏃 #DOMWHU #COYI pic.twitter.com/NZxiuBudkF West Ham defender Aaron Cresswell will miss the start of the season after being ruled out for up to four months with a knee injury one of the Hammers' most consistent performers last term suffered ligament damage in their pre-season friendly win over Karlsruher in Austria on Saturday Cresswell will see a specialist in London next week to determine whether or not he requires surgery CLICK HERE FOR FULL STORY #NKDomzale -

Speid noted that this is the third teenager the club has transferred overseas between last season and this and for that reason he believes Cavalier is on the right track "Those three players went to the Gothia Cup (in Sweden) and played in the final in the Under-17 Elite B final so we are pleased at the club to extend that capital for the players to get that type of exposure and you can see that it has helped them in their development,' he said Parris received his international clearance from the Jamaica Football Federation on Monday travel documents are still to be processed "The agent he has signed to is the same agent that Nicholson is signed to So he is in very good hands and around people who can make things happen," Speid said View the discussion thread.
