Paisaje urbano con figura : La invención de una tradición

By: Benjamin Casadiego

En 2013 Colombia vio su vida pública estremecida por un cruento paro agrario que dejó decenas de muertos y un país dividido en las ambiguas percepciones alrededor de la vida en el campo. Mientras esto ocurría, en un pueblo andino al nororiente del país, se desarrollaba un enconado debate alrededor de la pureza del folclor. En un momento ambas historias se cruzan y la ciudad se ve dibujada sobre un nuevo paisaje. El libro tiene el estilo de un reportaje-perfil con un personaje principal, que al seguirlo, el lector se encontrará con un estudio sociológico que puede caber a cualquier pueblo de América Latina: la cultura, las tradiciones, el negocio cultural, la violencia política....

"La ciudad es un trazo inconcluso, hecho de memorias y de olvidos, más de olvidos quizás, pero sobre todo, de invenciones. Los seres que la habitan se la inventan día a día. Algunos de ellos son la suma de tales invenciones y asoman al paisaje urbano su figura". ...

March of the Evil Empires! : English Versus the Feudal Languages!!

By: Ved from Victoria Institutions

This is a book containing a revolutionary idea about understanding society, human behaviour, history, anthropological features and many other aspects of human beings. The basic understanding that is being put forward is that languages, which are the software for human communication, are powerful media, which not only can help in communication, but also does contain extremely powerful designs and programs, which literally design all societies. Languages are actually powerful machines that can create a definite and pre-definable pattern, along which all human beings arrange themselves, to form different societies. Different type of languages form different type of societies; for example,a group of persons who think and talk in Tamil, would form a society, which would have remarkable Tamil features, and identifiable behaviour patterns.A group of persons who do the same thing in Spanish would display definite Spanish looks, demeanour, behaviour and social pattern and arrangement.An English speaking society would be having its own definite looks and, also a very easily identifiable interpersonal interaction configuration. ...

A QUOTE from the book about what would happen to the US, when feudal language speakers swarm into this once good quality English nation. This was written around 1990: ...a stage may come, at least, in certain areas, where the innate resilience of the English structure may be severely tested; and cause much distress to the individual persons; and can in a matter of time, cause domino effect on many other areas, causing strange happenings of technological failure, inefficiency, conflict, hatred, events that may be described with shallow understanding as racially motivated, decent and peaceful persons acting with unnatural violence etc. Rude officialdom, arrogant and trigger-happy police, increasing corruption, insolent attitude to persons who are judged to be doing lower jobs, time consuming judiciary, rules and regulations, which are laughable in meaning but having a sting from which many get hurt, and a general feeling of hopeless for the solitary individual, as against the might of the society are all general characters of the effect of feudal languages. What has to be borne in mind is that feudal languages do have elemen...

What is Different about Pristine English?

By: Ved from Victoria Institutions

This is a post that I had done on Telegraph.UK blog pages. The first chapter was posted on the 27th of May 2014. It was part of my desperate attempts to inform the naive, gullible and stupid Englanders of what is dangerously different in most other languages, which have feudal or three-Dimensional word-code structure. Without any information on this most powerful evilness, the nation is singing praise and glory to its misinformed national policy of multiculture. Even though the subject matter that I have dealt in here would be quite easy for any feudal language speaker to understand, it would not be easy for a native-English speaker to grasp. Most native-feudal language speakers who are currently enjoying the quaint splendour of England would shy away from admitting the correctness in my writings. For, if they do admit that there is a very powerful content in this, all their outraged contentions on English racism would evaporate into thin air. This writing is part of my efforts that started a few decades back, starting with my first book on this theme: March of the evil empires: English versus the feudal languages. ...

An Urgent Appeal for English Racism

It was written as part of my desperate attempts to inform the naive, gullible and stupid Englanders of how they have been cunningly deluded to appear as a most evil nationhood, when actually they ought to be acclaimed as the greatest of social engineers in various far-off, semi-barbarian and totally barbarian geographical locations....

An Impressionistic History of the South Asian Subcontinent : Feudal Languages

By: VED from Victoria Institutions

This is a writing that goes into the very depth of feudal language social systems. The writing commenced as a regular broadcast through Whatsapp and still continues. The language of the original writing was a vernacular language of the southern parts of the South Asian Subcontinent. As of now, the broadcast has gone beyond 280 chapters. In this book only the first 100 and odd posts are given. This is so because the translation of only that many chapters has been completed. The translated version of this book is primarily aimed at the attention of the native-English populations of native-English nations. They have no idea as to what it is that is entering their nations, when feudal language speakers enter their nations and slowly bring in diabolic transformations in everything in the native-English social systems. Feudal languages have terrible carnivorous codes, along with an overpowering outwardly affable friendliness. The combination is a very deadly one, in that there is no shield or barrier that can effectively stop the infection of feudal languages. The only way to ward off the terrible social disasters in the offin...

Chapter Five Feudal languages and planar languages This writer, after a lot of observations and experimentations, has defined languages as of two different categories. Languages like English were categorised as planar languages. Languages which have word-codes of feudal lowliness versus heights were defined as feudal languages. In connection with this, a draft form of the book MARCH of the EVIL EMPIRES: English versus the feudal languages was first written in the year 1989. Around the year 2000, the completed version of this book was published online. As of now, this book is available for download on VICTORIA INSTITUTIONS’ Website In this book, a contention that languages are either software codes or software applications had been mentioned. After many years, when direct observations on the real codes in languages were made, it was felt that the word ‘feudal’ was inadequate as a technical word to define the phenomenon. It was then that a few years back that it was understood that a more apt technical usage would be: '3-D Virtual Arena-coded languages'. In accordance with this understanding, this technical usage was made i...

La importancia del estudio de la psicosis en el ámbito jurídico penal : The importance of psychosis study in the Criminal legal field: The importance of psychosis study in the Criminal legal field

By: MTRO Agustín Salgado García

Los sujetos que padecen psicosis, ven a alguien cuando no hay nadie y hasta perciben olores que nadie más huele. Tienen alucinaciones que son hechos falsos, no hablan con ninguna persona y aun así lo hacen, entablando conversaciones fuera de la realidad. La psicosis comprende un grave deterioro de las funciones ejecutivas la personalidad, en especial con relación a la realidad y que se manifiesta por el desajuste de interacción social. La comisión de conductas delictivas pueden originarse en estados psicóticos, lo que deberá considerarse al determinarse la individualización de la sanción penal, lo que es de ingente importancia para la defensa el fiscal y el juzgador. Subjects with psychosis, see someone when there is nobody and even perceive odors that nobody else smells. They have hallucinations that are false facts, do not talk to any person and yet they do, engaging in conversations outside of reality.

By: Dr. Gino Rios Patio

Information and Managerial Wisdom : Second Edition

By: Dr. J D R de Raadt

In this book, de Raadt examines concepts of informatics – such as dis-information, noise and uncertainty generated by global interconnectivity – that explain the destabilising effect of information technology on society. These concepts are derived from cybernetics and are pedagogically presented to provide students an understanding of the social and cultural context of information. This should help them apply information technology in subservience to human endeavours rather than the contemporary practise of the reverse....

"...de Raadt has produced a highly readable text which enjoins us to modify the approach that we use to solve our world problems. He should be commended for his effort: it follows in the tradition of famous predecessors such as Stafford Beer and Geoffrey Vickers who have trodden similar territory." (John P. van Gigch)...

Native Life in Travancore along with Commentary by VED from Victoria Institutions

By: Rev. SAMUEL MATEER; VED from Victoria Institutions, Editor

Commentary The work Designing this old book into a digital book version had its own travails and hard work. I took the text from various online sources. The text needed a lot of corrections, when it was converted into a MS Word file. Moreover, there were lots of pages missing. I think I have been able to get most of the pages intact by cross-referencing the sources, all of which had similar problems, but not in the same locations. I think I commenced the work on this project on the 20th of May 2014. Today it is June 26th 2014. The text of the book is ready and in the form of a digital book. Now I am commencing on my own commentary on this book. This book and other books This is a great book indeed. Even though this book ostensibly speaks of the kingdom of Travancore, the core emotions that have been dealt out can be on various aspects of the geographical area known as the South Asian peninsula, and even of the Asian landmass. In my search for realistic historical writings on the peninsular region, Indian nation and on the antiquity of the land area currently known ...

To the present day Pulayars and others are thrust into cages not much better. One which I measured was fifteen feet long by eight feet wide, and five and three-quarters in height, in which twenty-five persons have at times been incarcerated, supplied with stocks all round, and no separation of the sexes. Another was eighteen by eight feet, in which thirty persons have been confined at once; and another was a “black hole” about eight feet square and five and a quarter high, with no opening whatever, for ventilation, not now used “except,” said the peon, “there were a woman, who would be put in there for her comfort!” The Sirkar has long been urged to remedy this serious evil, and has promised amendment, and done something in the larger towns; but much yet remains to be effected throughout the country. In somewhat recent times Shanars also, if they neglected to supply jaggery for public work, were put into cages armed with spikes, and made to eat a quantity of salt with a little rice, or chained to trees like monkeys to their cage-posts. “I once saw,” says Fra Bartolomeo, about A.D. 1780, “five natives suspended from a tree in a for...
