can mention something from my own experiences. I started by schooling in a Cambridge-University certification school (I think), wherein initially the teachers and priests were more or less Anglo-Indians of the English variety. (There is the Indian variety of Anglo-Indians also. The first version has vanished from India now). However, after around after around one and half years of such schooling, the Anglo-Indian group vanished and a native converted-to-Christian priests took over the management....

...................... Now, compare this same scenario to that of a man. Whatever he is doing is actually something wherein a particular set of codes or lines of program are being utilised or created. When he bends, turns to the right, picks up something, and all else, actually some program line or code is being written; I do not know where. It, most probably is not in the same world that we exist in; but in some other ‘cyber’ world, where everything gets encoded and stored. It may be noted that the codes that I am speaking of here is not the software on which the brain is working; but of something which is beyond the software used in the brain; so that even this software used in the brain is actually a creation of the other one, that I speak of. Now we have reached a premise, wherein the proposition gets connected to what one may call ‘lines of destiny’ or what in Indian languages is called ‘writings on the head’. Yet, what I proposed may not be entirely lines that foretell destiny; it may be simply that whatever we are doing can be seen in another arena in terms of lines of codes; I do not know what language, or what type of s...

The Bible verses I was taught at church and the testimony of my parents and others introduced me to Jesus. Several times during my youth I prayed to be saved from hell, but remained unsure if I was truly saved. Later as I prepared to enter college I concluded that my sin during high school surely would result in my damnation. I lost all hope before remembering the good news that Christ died for sinners. Happily I planned to start a new relationship with Christ based on his promise of forgiveness to me, rather than my efforts to be good enough. The Lord then immediately directed me into grace centered discipleship at college and afterward. As I dug deeper into the Word of God, with the help of godly men, I learned that my sin problem is much greater than I imagined. My continuing sin, even as a Christian, has shown me what sin really is, hatred of God. What began as a prayer to be saved from Hell has grown to a prayer to be saved from sin. Thankfully God has also shown me that he has oceans and oceans of grace and mercy toward sinners. Jesus is a super savior who has saved me from condemnation, and who I know has paid for a...

This Christian teaching is validated by my confession that Christ's death applied to us while we were still his enemies, and thus I have become his friend. "For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we will be saved by his life," (Romans 5:10, WEB).

The following chapters are independent essays that were written between July 2015 and February 2016. They appear in random order, and therefore they do not have to be read in the order they appear. The issue in all the essays is the connection between the energy policies of various countries, their foreign policies, and the wars that break out at various parts of the globe, since all three are closely related. I describe many economic interests and many alliances in my essays. But alliances change and so do economic interest. Therefore what is more important for the reader is to have an idea of the global resources i.e. oil and natural gas in my essays, because global resources change at a much lower pace than economic interests and economic alliances. The alliances and conflicts I describe in my essays might not exist in the near future, but if you have an idea of the global resources you will be able to see the alliances and the economic interests that will exist in the future....

Die 150 Psalmen haben bis heute ihre Kraft erhalten. „Die Psalmen sind für mich eins der wichtigsten Lebensmittel“, schreibt die evangelische Theologin Dorothee Sölle. „Ich esse sie, ich trinke sie, ich kaue auf ihnen herum, manchmal spucke ich sie aus, und manchmal wiederhole ich sie mitten in der Nacht. Sie sind für mich Brot. Ohne sie tritt die spirituelle Magersucht ein, die sehr verbreitet unter uns ist und oft zu einer tödlichen Verarmung des Geistes und des Herzens führt.“ Das Sölle-Zitat ist Leitmotiv für das Onlineprojekt psalmen.ekir.de, das nun auch als E-Book veröffnetlicht wird. Die Evangelische Kirche im Rheinland als Herausgeberin stellt Texte und Bilder zu den Psalmen zur Verfügung, um diese Impulse aus den Psalmen für unsere Gegenwart neu zu entecken....

مقدمة اللجنة العلمية المختار الثقفي... رجل الأسطورة في نصرة الحق لم تعد شخصية المختار بن أبي عبيدة الثقفي شخصية درامية يتخذها البعض في تصوير مشهد تاريخي ما، بل فرضت هذه الشخصية نفسها على الحدث الإسلامي لتكون مفردة تاريخية مستقلة، وهذا يعني أن المختار ذو القابليات المتعددة صار مسرحاً للنقد والدراسة والتحليل، ومنه يُعلم مالهذه الجهود من تجاذبات فكرية تتفقُ أحياناً وتتقاطع أخرى، لتزيد المشهد التاريخي تعقيداً فوق كل تعقيداته المختلفة فهذا المختار الذي تعددت قراءات فكره وتوجهاته بين كيساني النزعة، إلى زيدي الهوى حتى إمامي الانتهاء، وفي نطاق السياسة فهو بين زبيري حتى مرواني إلى علوي الاصطفاف، وهكذا هي دوامة تاريخية لا تنتهي إلاّ بقناعات غير قطعية محالة على الظن أو التهمة أو الكراهية وحتى عبثية التحليل، وينتمي كل دارسٍ إلى ثقافته القبلية التي تفرض عليه ترسيم حدود الشخصية التاريخية التي لم تجد مجالاً للنقد أو التروي حتى تتحكم في تعريفها هذه الدواعي غير العلمية، وتتجه نتائج البحث أخيراً لتؤشر على الحالة الانتمائية التي يبتلي بها الكاتب أو المحلل التاريخي الذي تستهويه هذه المطاردات لتسقط أخيراً من مضمار الهوس والتسابق الذوقي حتى تحط رحالها إلى حيث انتهت معه التؤدة في التحقيق، والتروي في معالجة البحث، وتخرج الجهود التحقيقية بنتائجها القيمة م...

This book describes what happened in the field of EcoDesign at the Consumer Electronics Division (PCE) of Philips Electronics in the years 1993-2008. Fifty stories illustrate the five overlapping stages of its development: Get the facts, stimulate creative thinking, implement and validate, integrate into design and production, and communicate results effectively. EcoDesign has been introduced to PCE through a bottom-up approach with an emphasis on common sense. This ensured a wide acceptance and a strong participation. As a result, EcoDesign turned out to have a significance which went far beyond just environmental improvements. Apart from direct cost reductions, it turned to be an effective concept to critically review decisions taken in the past. In its mature form it has grown into a powerful general management tool. ...

The electronics industry has been dealing with EcoDesign as of the early nineties of last century. There has been a variety of drivers to do so, varying from ethics to complying with (new) environmental legislation. After 25 years a new generation of EcoDesigners has entered the field. This generation operates from the wider sustainability perspective, that is taking apart from environmental also social and economic considerations into account. It is supported by a knowledge base which can be accessed through internet and through smart phones. This is quite a difference compared with the period when EcoDesign started. The scene has therefore changed but many issues to be addressed by EcoDesign have not. The key issues are still energy, materials, packaging and transport, chemical content and recyclability. Making EcoDesign successful in the business is facing similar hurdles as twenty years ago....
