Entwined Realities : The Epic Tragedy of Neanderthal and Modern Human

By: Roc Hale

In 2055 humanity is confronting countless hardships inflicted on them by the powerful evil in control of the world. The Great Catastrophe had unfolded in waves that affected the environment, economy and society, and now enslaved the few hundred million survivors. As readers would expect from today’s trends, food was in short supply from runaway climate change, life support systems were overloaded with toxins, and ecosystems and the energy supply had collapsed. The story of three people living in one of a few remaining pockets of human reality is interwoven with chapters reaching back 33,000 years, when Earth was inhabited by two distinctly different hominids. The Neanderthal were nearly extinct. Homo sapiens, modern humans with advanced brains, were newcomers in Neanderthal territory. It soon became apparent that the species could interbreed. This short book aligns research showing that Neanderthal DNA is found in the human genome with findings from studies of the central nervous system. Approximately one to five percent of the population is born with brain anomalies correlated with psychopathy, a personality disorder marked b...

“Wow!” said Edde. “What we learned about the bastards casually through our talks over the years makes more sense to me now. They acquired power stealthily and misused it to control humanity in accordance with how they saw the world, which was and still is connected to their brain structures. The world they see, the reality they act within, is reckless, selfish, cold and destructive, in contrast to our normal more cautious, altruistic, warm and creative reality.” “Yeah,” said Ave. “What we just learned about Neanderthal anatomy gives a special significance to what you’ve told us, Pops, about history and the lead-up to the Great Catastrophe. Now we know that the abnormalities of the bastards’ brains transform them into sub-human beings whose reality and behaviour drastically contrast with our humanness. No wonder their behaviour seems insane to us. Until now, I couldn’t understand why anyone in their right mind would pollute and despoil the environment they depend on for their life, continue to wipe out species as if they themselves were exempt from extinction, extract resources at any cost to the point of depletion, and burn fossi...

الوعي الاسلامي

By: السيد حسن المهدي الشيرازي

مقـدمة المؤلف: المبدأ – الذي ينبثق منه نظام وعقيدة واجتماع – هو مقياس عظمة الشعب وحضارته وثروته الفكرية والمادية ومدى خلوده ومقاومته للشعوب المناوئة له.. والمبدأ هو شارة الانتصار او الفشل في كل ميدان والمبدأ اعظم ثروة يرثها الجيل من ابائه، ويخلفه لابنائه. اما الحضارة والثروة المادية والعلمية، فانها تتبع المبدأ في تكونها وبقائها على تقدير وجودها قبل ذلك. فالامة التي لها مبدأ صحيح – تسير على ضوئه – تستطيع ان تحتفظ بما لديهامن حضارة وثروة.. ! حتى ولو اتفقت الظروف المعاكسة ان تعصف بها وتبدد ثروتها، وتدمر حضارتها وتقوض كيانها من القواعد وتكتسح كل غال ورخيص، فسرعان ما تستعيد قواها المسلوبة وتلملم نشاطها المنهوب بتوجيه من ذلك المبدأ – لتجدد كيانها، وتهتدي الى حضارتها مرة اخرى فتعود الى مقرها الآمن الوديع حتى ولو ابتدأت الامة بلا حضارة، ولا ثروة مادية أو علمية، فمن الهين عليها – بقيادة المبدأ الصحيح - ان تكوّن الحضارة والثروة وكل شيء وأن تتخذ البرامج – التي تساعده على التوسعة والاخضاع، واصهار الشعوب الاخرى في بوتقتها بكل سهولة وبساطة. كما ان الامة الاسلامية في ابتداء بعثة الرسول الاعظم لم تكن تملك حضارة ولا ثروة ولكنها حيث سارت على خطط الاسلام والقرآن حكمت في ربع المعمورة وانشأت الحضارة والثروة الهائلتين. اما الامم التي تدين بمبدأ فاسد...

Travancore State Manual

By: V Nagam Iyya; VED from Victoria Institutions, Editor

One very striking point in the book is the usage of ‘honourable company’ with regard to the East India Company. This adjective of ‘honourable’ is a necessary item in the feudal vernaculars of the Indian peninsula. Without this adjective, (mentioned or unmentioned), words and attributes can go down. However, there is this issue. The same word can have severely differing meanings when seen from English and from Indian peninsular vernaculars perspectives. In English the sense of ‘an honourable man’ is that of a person who is honest, has rectitude, wouldn’t cheat, would keep his words, would be fair in dealings etc. However, the vernacular sense is none of these. Here it is a forcible imposition meaning that the entity has to be ‘respected’....

Under command of His Highness the Maha Rajah, the preparation of the State Manual of Travancore was decided upon some time ago, and I was appointed to it with the simple instruction that the book was to be after the model of the District Manuals of Madras. This instruction I have faithfully carried out and I am happy to report now that the book is completed and issued in three large volumes. Although I have allowed myself some latitude in forming my own conception of the design and scope of the work and devoted my best attention and energies to their exposition and elucidation, I still feel I might have done better if I had been left to myself, to work at it leisurely, spending “a laborious day upon each page,’’ undisturbed by limitations of time and space...

An Introduction to the Financial Statement Analysis

By: Alex Sakevych; Patrick Kobyletskii

'An Introduction to the Financial Statement Analysis' is a brief guide to the financial statement analysis performance, including general information on the essence and methods of the financial analysis, key financial ratios calculation and interpretation. Finstanon is a fast solution for online financial analysis and interpretation. It saves time for professionals in financial analysis same as for newcomers. https://www.finstanon.com...

Aiming to detect changes in the company’s development trends in order to make more successful economic decisions, the financial statement analysis (also referred as the financial analysis of enterprise) is the process of analyzing and reviewing firm’s balance sheet (statement of financial position), income statement (profit and loss report) and other statements. It allows to estimate the company’s overall performance by calculating and comparing a complex of indicators, building the trend lines and making conclusions on the business health and sustainability. The motivation for applying the financial statement analysis to the annual report of a company is different for each group of users. Creditors are normally interested in estimating the creditworthiness of borrowers, investors want to measure the revenue their potential investments can bring, and managers are willing to have the most precise information on the financial position and performance of their companies....

The Ideal Within : A Discourse and Hegemony Theoretical Analysis of the International Anticorruption Discourse

By: Anja Carolin Gebel, Dr.

The doctoral dissertation analyses the international anticorruption discourse by the World Bank, UNDP and Transparency International. It draws out implicit conceptions of an ideal uncorrupted society. While international anticorruption discourse is found to be broadly reflective of what can be called advanced liberal ideals of governing, the thesis enables an in-depth understanding of the manifold and complex discursive moves through which these particular ideals are constructed and advanced by the discourse....

"Overall, IAC discourse delegitimizes any social constellation and political project that involves a conception of human beings which differs from ‘rational and self-interested’. [...] These negations of different social structures and political projects are related to other negations, such as of non-positivist ways of acquiring knowledge and investigating corruption and possible counter-measures. In a political project that is structured consistently according to the presuppositions and findings of positivist, rational choice inspired research, any other ways of looking at the world [...] can only be risky and wrong and endanger the fight against corruption"....

Positivist research on corruption – corruption as a fact After positivism – corruption as a socially constructed concept International anticorruption efforts as a site where corruption is constructed 2 A post-Marxist discourse and hegemony theoretical approach to the analysis of international anticorruption discourse A theory of discourse – a theory of society Hegemonic strategy, stratagems and other discursive logics The IAC consensus from a post-Marxist discourse and hegemony theoretical perspective Delimiting and analysing the discourse – ‘operationalisation’ and method 3 Creating the enemy Definitions, manifestations and locations of corruption Causes of corruption Social, political and economic consequences of corruption Subject positions Metaphors...

Charade of the Debt Crisis

By: Steven Kim

A common mistake in real and financial markets is a mix-up of means and ends. A showcase cropped up during the financial crisis of 2008 and its aftershock including the debt crisis in Southern Europe. In response to the fiasco, policymakers round the world wasted trillions of dollars worth of public funds on makeshift schemes that ended up hobbling the financial forum and the real economy. Upon closer inspection, however, the epic blowup was a consequence of excessive meddling in the markets rather than the outgrowth of a laisser-faire policy as was widely assumed in the public sector as well as the private segment. To make things worse, a confusion of the objectives and methods led to feckless and even wrackful moves in response to the financial flap along with the Great Recession and their aftermath. From a larger stance, a solid grasp of means and ends is the first step toward designing a cogent agenda in any domain....

In any field of human enterprise, a solid grasp of means and ends is the first step toward fixing up a worthwhile scheme while cutting down waste and beefing up productivity. The next step is to thrash out a trenchant plan that exploits the opportunities and avoids the pitfalls in the landscape. The third task is to put the resulting plan into action with gumption and dispatch. In the case of the debt crisis, the proper course would require a cogent agenda to ensure a speedy recovery of the financial forum and the real economy. On the downside, the damage done to date by the banksters and politicos is far too massive to allow for a quick or painless recourse. On the upside, though, the lack of a pat answer does not mean that there are no useful cures, or that the problems should be left to fester on their own. For there are baneful schemes as well as healthful ways to deal with the ailments. To this end, it’s high time to consider the big picture and take the high ground. As things stand, the politicians will not on their own initiative take up the gauntlet and tackle the problems in a serious way. In that case, the voting p...

Nursultan Nazarbayev, in full Nursultan Abishevich Nazarbayev, Nazarbayev also spelled Nazarbaev (born July 6, 1940, Kazakhstan, U.S.S.R.), president of Kazakhstan (from 1990), a reformist who sought regional autonomy for his Central Asian republic.

A Life Story

By: Kate Nicolaisen, Mrs.; Jorgen Nikolajsen, Translator

What is it that makes Kate Nicolaisen's life history so interesting? One of the answers is the way she tells it. Despite often having lived a hard life, particularly during her childhood, Kate Nicolaisen has never lost her optimism. Despite being wounded deeply by her nearest and dearest, she has herself been able to heal the wounds. Kate Nicolaisen's flair for storytelling rests on a solid foundation of socio-political understanding, great humanity, and a sharp sense for detail. Her joy of storytelling is almost musical, the dimensions are psychological, the contents earthy and realistic. The book contains aspects of the history of the social conditions of the 1910s, 20s, and 30s, including the relations between parents and children. The book also deals with the psychological aspects of the relations between father and daughter, and stepmother and daughter. And it touches on the use of art as therapy and release from the traumas of childhood. Its literary aspects include the use of the autobiography as a tool for self-development and the use of the folk story to find avenues into the past....

Over the "canal" was a bridge. When I sat on the bridge, I could reach the water with my feet. It felt like soft caressing when the water glided past. Here I could sit with my own thoughts . . . melancholy thoughts. I could see my own mirror image. My tattered dress, my thin fair hair, my eyes, by skinny arms - at the bottom of the stream. It all seemed to move in the rushing water. If I lay down at the bottom! Then I would feel the water caressing my entire body. Then father would come and find me. He would stand over the stream and see me like I saw my mirror image. He would become enraged! Maybe he would pick me up and start beating me. But I would no longer be able to feel the blows - his power over me would be broken!...

Clan Capitalism, Graph Distance, and Other Issues : A Collection of Social and Economics Papers

By: Florentin Smarandache; V. Christianto

This book consists of 6 papers focusing on social and economic issues. The topics covered include graph distance and optimal communication, migration in Jaipur, urbanization, clan capitalism, world population growth rate, and scientific inquiry. These papers were written in the period between 2009-2010. Hopefully the readers will find some new insights in this collection of papers....

In recent years, there has been a rapid increase in the literature which discusses new phenomenon associated to social network. One of the well-known phenomenon in this regards is known as ‘six degrees of separation’ [1], which implies that one can always keep a communication with each other anywhere within a six-step. A number of experiments has verified this hypothesis, either in the context of offline communication (postal mail), or online communication (email, etc.). In this article, we argue that by introducing this known ‘six degrees of separation’ into the context of group instability problem, one can find a new type of wisdom in organization. Therefore, we offer a new conjecture, which may be called ‘Group stability conjectures based on Graph/Network distance.”...

Stealing Candy from the Baby : A Look at the Third Wave of Feminism

By: B. Gayle

It is the argument of this paper that the Canadian government has not yet achieved its goals of women’s equality, elimination of child poverty and optimal national productivity due to an oversight in social policy that neglects the unpaid caregiving sector. The care of the sick, elderly, handicapped, dying and the young has been historically a female role and as women have moved into paid labor, this role has been devalued creating barriers both to those who try to juggle career and family and to those who for a time prioritize the caregiving side, with serious financial and social penalties. Arguments are noted from sociology, health, economics and feminist theory to support the claim that recognition of the care sector is a vital step to achieving equality and ‘best interests’ goals. The present justification for one-sided support of the care sector, focusing only on paid care is analyzed for its lapses in logic, its negatives stereotyping of the unpaid role and its motivations which may undermine the goals it seeks to achieve....

Szok Szybkości : Cywilizacja ludzi i komputerów.

By: Waldemar Sadowski

„Szok szybkości” to esej o fascynującym prądzie cywilizacji, który porywa świat wraz z ludźmi w dziwną przyszłość. Symbioza ludzi i komputerów, końcowy etap postnowoczesnej kultury, rodzi zaskakujące zjawiska, napędzane potężnymi siłami ewolucji i entropii. Świat w każdej chwili może znaleźć się poza naszą kontrolą. Esej odsłania tajemnice nowej, rodzącej się cywilizacji ludzi i komputerów; jest kolekcją teorii naukowych i metafor popkultury, przepuszczoną przez filtry filozofii i zdrowego rozsądku; rozważa rolę i przeznaczenie bytów inteligentnych: ludzi, komputerów, nadczłowieka i boga. Autor tworzy dwa główne scenariusze przyszłości człowieka, których wspólnym mianownikiem są dwie cechy: Szybkość i Dziwność. Metafory, teorie filozoficzne, nowe technologie i odkrycia naukowe, to fragmenty puzzli, z których autor układa obraz dziwnej, miejscami przerażającej rzeczywistości. O tym, że ewolucja trwa nadal wie każdy. O tym, że ewolucja inteligencji nie tylko nadal trwa, ale przyspiesza, wie niewielu. Co będzie końcowym efektem tego przyspieszenia, nie wie nikt. Dokąd prowadzą nas destrukcyjno-kreatywne siły ewolucji? Mając do dyspozyc...

Trabalho Imaterial: libertação do trabalhador ou degradação do trabalho?

By: Dímitre Sampaio Moita

O trabalho explora os significados do trabalho informacional. Partindo do estatuto conquistado pelo trabalho na sociedade salarial, como fator de identificação pessoal e de coesão social, são analisadas as transformações observadas no mercado laboral e na economia mundial. As metamorfoses são percebidas a partir do prisma da reestruturação produtiva e da consequente precarização laboral. A revolução das tecnologias da informação e comunicação é tratada a partir da convergência entre os campos da microeletrônica, da computação e das telecomunicações. A grande produtividade da indústria da informação e comunicação divide os analistas entre a tese do informacionalismo ou capitalismo cognitivo e a tese da degradação do trabalho informacional. O conceito de trabalho imaterial é analisado sob a perspectiva de ameaça à validade dos conceitos da economia política tradicional, uma vez que nesse contexto não é mais possível valorar unidades de produto a partir de unidades de tempo. O trabalho imaterial, vivo e colaborativo em sua definição, apontaria para a superação da degradação do trabalho e para o surgimento de uma economia da...

Being Happy : The 10 Most Successful Strategies, Volume 1

By: Martin Nagle

If you take a look at the world we live in, most people have a completely backwards approach to pursuing happiness. We’re generally raised with the idea: “If you work hard at something, you’ll be successful, and then you can be happy”. But when you think like that, you’ll notice that as soon as you reach a goal, another one will take it’s place. And then another. Like the horizon, our goals keep shifting and moving just out of reach. And with that, our happiness. Our brain actually works the other way around: By cultivating happiness, you’ll be more creative, feel more connected, and be more productive. So by first focusing on what makes us happy, we become much better at everything we do!...

"... And be aware of your conditioning and society's effect on your thinking. Try giving yourself some unconditional self-acceptance, give yourself a break from the inner critic by, paradoxically, not struggling with anything. We put so much pressure on ourselves to be some notion of a perfect person that we are never actually able to be ourselves and enjoy our life. And remember – it's not a rehearsal – this is the real thing. Each moment is a new choice to love it or resent it."...

The World in Kaleidoscopic Hues : January 2015 Issue, Volume 2

By: Ved from Victoria Institutions, Compiler

This is a downloadable digital magazine with audio & video features. Some of the salient features include a free English teaching programme with Malayalam & English audio. Another thing is a free Homeopathy teaching programme in Malayalam. The contents do have focus on English, Victorian-age England and English classics, both literary as well as movie/TV. You need to have Adobe Reader X or XI in your computer to open the file. For audio/video features to work, Adobe Flash Player needs to be installed. The audio/video features will not work in Smart phones/Tablets. This digital magazine, though in Malayalam, aims to promote the planar language code features of English. The overall aim of this digital magazine is to look at indoctrinated understandings on Kerala social and cultural history, English rule in the subcontinent, the different perspective on the purported theme of Indian freedom struggle and much else. Beyond all this, there will be a vibrant discussion on the issue of how language codes and languages do design human and animal social communication and social structure. The most basic idea is that most Indian lan...

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". ...

Words from Malabar Language

By: Ved from Victoria Institutions

There was a language in the Malabar coast, that is, in the northern parts of current day Kerala. This language was also known as Malayalam but quite different from the modern official version Malayalam. This language has more or less vanished in the last 30 years or so, succumbing to the onslaught of the official version, South Kerala Malayalam which came with statutory support. The issue of there being a different language in Malabar comes to the fore, due to the fact that the COMPULSORY MALAYALAM teaching lobby is insisting that every man and woman in Kerala should be compulsorily taught their 'mother tongue'. If that is so, then the people of Malabar would have to be compulsorily taught this language and not the southern version official Malayalam....

Idiocy of the Indian Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act! [Sample pages]

By: Ved from Victoria Institutions

Domestic violence

Now we move on to discuss the various facets of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act. As mentioned earlier, this discussion cannot follow the tracks of wordings of the Act, which at best is only a display of empty pedantry. Before entering into the exact premises of the discussion, there is one more item that needs mention. That is the so-called equality between men and women. It is a theme that is ferociously discussed in many nations. More in nations, where actually there is not much of an ‘equality’ issue. It is like the claims of the Blacks for right to equality with the Whites in English nations, where actually there is not much of a discrimination as that can be conceived of as in nations like India. For in nations like India, such right to equality with any superior class of people, including the rich, government officials, social superiors etc. cannot even be pondered upon, by the lower classes. In Indian feudal languages, it is a very rare occasion for anyone to be equal to anyone else, just like that. More so, the husband with the wife and the wife with the husband. In most Indian vernaculars, the wife ...

El Carmen, Espacio, Tiempo y Memoria : Historia y arquitectura en la región de Ocaña, Norte de Santander

By: Benjamin Casadiego Cabrales

¿Tiene algún sentido mantener vivas las tradiciones culturales y arquitectónicas aún a costa de la calidad de vida de sus habitantes? El ejercicio se pregunta por el sentido del poblamiento en la región que hoy conocemos como El Carmen en el Norte de Santander. Las respuestas nos han llevado a la valoración de una arquitectura colonial específica del municipio mencionado y los elementos "duros" que le dan su razón de ser, que la sostienen o debilitan: su economía, las tradiciones, la memoria, los habitantes que hicieron posible las casas, las calles y los lugares de encuentro; las tragedias, los nacimientos, la guerra. ...
