Since the Nineteen Twenties, students have promoted a collection of manuscripts, lengthy deserted via Marx and Engels, to canonical prestige in booklet shape because the German Ideology, and specifically its 'first chapter,' referred to as 'I. Feuerbach.' half considered one of this innovative research relates intimately the political heritage by which those manuscripts have been editorially fabricated into variations and translations, in order that they may possibly signify a tremendous exposition of Marx's 'theory of history.' half offers a wholly-original view of the so-called 'Feuerbach' manuscripts in a page-by-page English-language rendition of those discontinuous fragments. through together with the hitherto devalued corrections that every writer made in draft, the hot textual content invitations the reader right into a special laboratory for his or her collaborative paintings.

The Politics of Obedience: The Discourse of Voluntary Servitude
States are extra weak than humans imagine. they could cave in in an instant—when consent is withdrawn.
This is the thesis of this exciting e-book. Murray Rothbard writes a vintage advent to at least one of the good political essays within the background of ideas.
In instances whilst dictators internationally are falling from strain from their very own humans, this publication, written approximately 500 years in the past, is actually the prophetic tract of our times.
Étienne de l. a. Boétie used to be born in Sarlat, within the Périgord sector of southwest France, in 1530, to an aristocratic relations, and have become a pricey buddy of Michel de Montaigne. yet he should be remembered for this astonishingly very important essay, one of many maximum within the background of political suggestion. it is going to shake how you reflect on the kingdom. His thesis and argument quantity to the easiest solution to Machiavelli ever penned in addition to one of many seminal essays in safety of liberty.
La Boétie's job is to enquire the character of the country and its unusual prestige as a tiny minority of the inhabitants that clings to diverse principles from each person else and claims the authority to rule everybody else, preserving a monopoly on legislation. It moves him as evidently improbable that such an establishment has any endurance. it may be overthrown directly if humans withdraw their consent.
He then investigates the secret as to why humans don't withdraw, given what's visible to him that everybody will be with no the nation. This sends him on a speculative trip to enquire the facility of propaganda, worry, and beliefs in inflicting humans to acquiesce of their personal subjection. Is it cowardice? probably. behavior and culture. possibly. probably it's ideological phantasm and highbrow confusion.
La Boétie is going directly to make a case as to why humans should withdraw their consent instantly. He urges everybody to get up and get rid of tyranny just by refusing to concede that the nation is in charge.
The tyrant has "nothing greater than the facility that you just confer upon him to smash you. the place has he got sufficient eyes to undercover agent upon you, in the event you don't supply them yourselves? How can he have such a lot of hands to overcome you with, if he doesn't borrow them from you? The ft that trample down your towns, the place does he get them in the event that they aren't your personal? How does he have any energy over you other than via you? How could he dare assail you if he had no cooperation from you? "
Then those inspiring phrases: "Resolve to serve not more, and also you are right away freed. i don't ask that you just position fingers upon the tyrant to topple him over, yet easily that you just aid him now not; you then will behold him, like an excellent Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his personal weight and holiday in items. "
In these kinds of components, the writer has expected Jefferson and Arendt, Gandhi and Spooner, and those that overthrew Soviet tyranny. The essay has profound relevance for knowing heritage and all our times.
As Rothbard writes in his magnificent creation, "La Boetie's Discourse has an important significance for the trendy reader—an value that is going past the sheer excitement of examining a superb and seminal paintings on political philosophy, or, for the libertarian, of interpreting the 1st libertarian political thinker within the Western international. For los angeles Boétie speaks such a lot sharply to the matter which all libertarians—indeed, all competitors of despotism—find relatively tough: the matter of procedure. dealing with the devastating and probably overwhelming strength of the fashionable nation, how can a loose and extremely varied international be caused? How on this planet will we get from right here to there, from a global of tyranny to an international of freedom? accurately as a result of his summary and undying technique, l. a. Boétie bargains very important insights into this endless challenge. "
Peasants versus City-Dwellers: Taxation and the Burden of Economic Development
During this publication Nobel Laureate Joseph Stiglitz and co-author Raaj Sah tackle certainly one of development's significant matters. in the course of the early levels of financial improvement, there are frequently critical conflicts among the pursuits of city and kingdom.

Example text
Even the most superficial comparison between the 1926 Marx-Engels-Archiv edition and the 1932 MEGA1 edition reveals that there are grave differences in the way the text has been arranged. " Therefore, in his view, it could not have been Ryazanov, as a victim of "Stalinism," who had been responsible for the way the so-called manuscripts on Feuerbach had been edited. " But who did it then? Other than simply blaming "Stalinism" in general, Koltan fails to come up with a plausible answer. It is thanks to the editors of the MarxEngels-Jahrbuch 2003 that such a simplistic explanation, which explains everything and nothing, can be ruled out.
The introduction to "Das Leipziger Konzil" has no pagination, while "II. Sankt Bruno" was paginated by Marx. The fact that these manuscripts were fair copies that were sent over to Germany does not imply that Marx and Engels had made no corrections to the text. There are plenty of insertions and marginal notes in the right-hand columns. Different colored pencils were used. Parts of "III. Sankt Max" are even in the handwriting of Weydemeyer himself, who allegedly copied from manuscripts (now lost) written down by Engels.
Both are found in a chapter of the apparatus criticus entitled "Die Richtlinien für die Redigierung der Manuskripte" (Guidelines for the editing of the manuscripts), not in the introduction. " And this in turn would reveal the "large scale trend of the composition" ("die große Linie der Komponierung") (Adoratskij, 1932b: 561–2). " Or in other words, we know what the authors wanted to say, and since they did not do so, we have to do it for them by rearranging the text. This is highly problematic.

The Lake of Dreams by Kim Edwards
After spending many years in a foreign country, Lucy returns to her family's rambling lakeside house. There she finds herself haunted by the curious circumstances of her father's death 10 years ago.
Sleepless one night, and pacing the moonlit hallways of the house, she makes a momentous discovery – locked in a window seat, she finds a collection of what at first appear to be idle curiosities. But each of these objects holds a secret.
As Lucy begins to piece together her family's true history – from an heirloom tapestry and old political tracts, to a web of allusions depicted in a stained glass – she realises that the story she has always believed were a fiction. And then, adding to her confusion, there is Keegan Fall, a local glass artist who was once her passionate first love, who stirs up old longings and who will lead Lucy to unexpected places.
On the cover, it was stated that in year 2007, The Memory Keeper's Daughter captivated over 6 million readers worldwide. Unfortunately, I am not among the 6 million readers so I approached The Lake of Dreams with some apprehension but determination and faith. I am duly rewarded as the book managed to captivate my curiosity and attention and I came away enjoying it.
Lucy Jarrette is the main character and the one pushing for the truth to be revealed based on the discovery she made in the family home one day. Not everyone welcomes her investigation as they felt that it was of no relevance but for some reason, Lucy was consumed by it and slowly, the truth about the family history is revealed and its impact on the family was felt by all – her mother – Ann, her brother – Blake, her uncle, cousins, etc but most of all herself.
I love the way the author builds up the tension of the story and I especially loved reading the letters that Lucy found. I can see that Lucy identifies herself with the author of the letters who is one of her ancestors especially the restlessness that they both felt in their individual life.
The Lake of Dreams is published by Penguin. I should think they have a bestsellers in The Lake of Dreams which can be made into a wonderful movie and I would love to see the small town especially the chapel with the stain glass coming alive on screen.
The copy of The Lake of Dreams that I have is an uncorrected proof copy. Thank you Pearson Malaysia (especially CYH) for this copy. I shall now check out The Memory Keepers' Daughter and be among the 6 million readers.

The Saint George's Middle School Difference
The middle school program at Saint George's is designed to give your 6th, 7th, and 8th grade child the encouragement and support to develop themselves as scholars, athletes, and artists.
Our major goals are to build a foundation of skills, knowledge, and principles that foster success in the Upper School and beyond. Our program is a natural progression from the "Habits of Success" cultivated in the SGS Lower School.
While our accelerated math curriculum, developed in-house and unique to SGS, may be the most widely recognized, it is but one facet of a multi-layered program focusing on inquiry, problem solving, reflection, and integration. In short, we aspire for your child to be able to think and communicate ethically and effectively.
The structure of each grade level is designed to provide a natural and developmentally appropriate transition from the Lower School to the Middle School, and from the Middle School to the Upper School.
At the center of our program, our advisors coach, guide, support, and encourage your child through each step. In 6th grade, your child will find a team of teachers working with them to master the novelties of their own lockers and switching classes each period. Advisors introduce and reinforce organizational and study strategies to develop executive functioning skills for your child to hone throughout their lives.
7th and 8th grades, advisors will meet with your child weekly to review previous work and reinforce study strategies. Relationships with advisors and teachers are the bedrock of the middle school experience.
Building healthy relationships with peers and adults is an important part of the journey of middle school. Our experienced teachers help students traverse the often rocky terrain of pre-adolescence. When necessary, our school counselor is available to reel in a student who has strayed from the path.
The middle school's challenging academic program lays a foundation for success in our International Baccalaureate program in 11th and 12th grades. The SGS middle school help students experience the excitement of discovery and the joy of service and leadership.
All of this is grounded in our Core Values of honesty, respect, generosity of spirit, and best efforts.
We would welcome the opportunity to work with you and your child at Saint George's Middle School.
Russell Werkman
Assistant Head of School for Secondary Education
Enjoy this 18-Minute Slide Show overview of the SGS Middle School during 2017-18 as well as individual photos (as babies and today) of the eighth graders as the Middle School says goodbye to the Class of 2022.
The 8th grade's Storm Garden project in front of the Middle School was completed on June 4 with the placement of additional plants and a last layer of bark. See a Photo Gallery of their efforts that will handle runoff better, be sustainable with native plants, and looks good too!
The 7th graders joined the 8th graders for their annual Battle of Gettysburg with water guns and balloons in the field next to school on June 5. Thanks, Mr. Gavin, for making sure history was never a "dry" subject. See a Photo Gallery of how, just like 155 years ago, the North won the battle!
Middle School is an important period in a young person's life. We love this age level and enjoy working with students and their families during this transition from childhood to young adulthood.


text: The aim of my thesis is to develop an absolute position and orientation measurement system for robots participating a European robotics contest, called Eurobot. The solution based on the technique of absolute location. The developed system can be used in the Eurobot competition as it respects all the official rules. The bases of the technique are the three active markers placed outside the boundaries of the playing field. Basically, these beacons are light emitting sources. The robot can detect the direction of the light coming from the markers using an appropriate on-board camera. Processing this direction information in real time the robot can locate its position and orientation on the field. Another aim of this project is to supervise or change a former operative system which uses the technique of range measuring via ultrasonic signals. The main goal is to get above this old system and increase the accuracy and reliability. To achieve this, the review of the previous system is necessary. So, the ultimate goal is to build an absolute positioning system based on computer vision and active markers. Applying this system the position and orientation of the robot can be calculated in high precision using maximum three beacons.

But surely, you can get the compensation amount for the emotional pain and financial losses occurred to you like medical bills, current and future wage losses and so on. Once you have checked for complaints and disciplinary actions against your list of potential attorneys, you're ready to proceed to the next step.
However, if they accept the position they are required by law to act as the fiduciary for the Principal's finances and assets. Since then, people along the Gulf and in states as distant as Hawaii have questioned seafood safety, some of whom had adverse reactions to it while others are just using common sense and wanting to protect their families. The anguish is expected to last long term, affecting life activities2. – As an injury attorney you will "pick and choose" only the most probable claims, ones with the highest probability of success, so lead qualification will take quite a bit of time and has to be considered as a spent resource. The process starts when the accident happens and involves a series of steps.
When companies don't meet these responsibilities and injuries occur, personal injury attorneys may intervene to make sure they are held accountable. At a little over 100 times larger than the Earth, the Sun is no doubt a big star. Your children are probably going to go to school and call someone fat. Now, a personal injury attorney well versed in the intrigues of this particular field of law will work with utmost motivation and diligence to ensure that the case goes in your favor. Mostly injury attorneys handle cases on a contingency fee basis.

In October of 2007, one of the worst truck accidents in California history occurred in Santa Clarita when 15 trucks converged on a tunnel known for its safety issues. On the other hand, getting injured because of the negligence of others falls under the head of personal injuries due to external forces or personal injuries caused by third parties, in other words. You need to have evidence of the incident, so talking with a dog bite injury lawyer as soon as you are capable is important. This includes hospital bill reimbursements, month-to-month medicine maintenance and the likes.

This whole wheat cornmeal bread may be prepared in the bread machine or by hand.
This is a fabulous yeast bread for toasting, and it makes delicious sandwiches, too. The cornmeal and whole wheat flour add just enough texture to the bread, and a small amount of brown sugar sweetens it perfectly.
What You'll Need
- 2 1/2 teaspoons yeast (active dry)
- 1 1/3 cups water (room temperature)
- 2 tablespoons sugar (dark or light brown)
- 1 large egg (beaten)
- 2 tablespoons butter (softened)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 3/4 cup cornmeal
- 3/4 cup flour (whole wheat)
- 2 3/4 cups flour (bread)
How to Make It
Bread Machine
- Add ingredients to the bread machine in the order recommended by your bread machine manufacturer. Bake on basic cycle, medium crust.
Conventional Method
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast and brown sugar in warmed (about 105 F) water and let stand for 10 minutes.
- Whisk in the egg and softened butter, and then add the salt, cornmeal, whole wheat flour, and bread flour; mix with hands or dough hook.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Alternatively, knead with a stand mixer and dough hook.
- Grease a large bowl with butter or oil.
- Put the dough into the bowl and turn so all sides are greased.
- Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1 hour, or until doubled.
- Punch the dough down and shape into a loaf.
- Turn the dough into a buttered 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan.
- Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm, draft-ree place for about 45 minutes, or until doubled.
- Position the oven rack in the middle of the oven.
- Heat the oven to 350 F.
- Bake the bread for about 30 to 40 minutes, or until golden brown.

Need I Repeat?: Settler colonial biopolitics and postcolonial iterability in Kim Scott?s Benang,?
Document Type
Book Chapter
Publication Details
Griffiths, M. R. (2010). "Need I Repeat?: Settler colonial biopolitics and postcolonial iterability in Kim Scott's Benang,". In N. O''Reilly (Eds.), Postcolonial Issues in Australian Literature (pp. 157-183). Amherst, N.Y.: Cambria Press.
Settler Australia is increasingly conscious of the need to redress thematerial consequences of its colonial history and to symbolically commemoraterelated injustices. The dialectic between symbolic and materialpolitics may appear to render either as incommensurate poles.Nonetheless, in the Australian context, this apparent incommensurabilityraises the specters of the long-term derision of symbolism by formerPrime Minister John Howard. To raise such questions as the materialityof redress and of its necessary relation to the symbolism of mourningand reconciliation implies questioning the very language of raising inthe context of the policy of assimilation. In the above epigraph, Nyoongarnovelist Kim Scott begins to do just that. Scott's text suggests thatthe covert regulatory function underlying the "progressive thoughts" ofAustralia's settler colonial regime is intrinsically linked to its "animalhusbandry" enfolding of racial difference into the biopolitics of physicalanthropology. The meaning ascribed to repetition raises the stakes forthe settler colonial nation's self-assertion as an unquestionably postcolonialmulticultural liberalism. This is especially so since, as Scott makesclear, direct medical and sexual regulation of indigenous people alsounderlay the "progressive" policy of assimilation.

A Tough Balancing Act
How do you strike the right balance between work life and family life?
QUESTION: Tristan wants to know how to balance work life with family life. This is an excellent question for Dave, who talks about sometimes being out of balance; but not for long.
ANSWER: When you run a small business, you are trying to get something off the ground and it takes a tremendous amount of time and energy. You don't want to be a workaholic or not see your kids for 10 years. But we've thrown around this nurturing spirit over our culture so much and being in balance with this and this and this.
The truth is, when I'm training for a marathon, I'm out of balance on other stuff because the physical is taking a lot of me. When I'm launching a business, I'm out of balance on a lot of other stuff because my career is taking a lot of me. When I'm on sabbatical or something, that pulls away from time with my family. There are other times when I'm totally focused on my family and that takes away from other stuff.
This idea that you are perfectly balanced in a given day, week, month or even year is a bunch of crap. You need to be balanced over the scope of your life and have each of these elements in your life at a healthy level. You don't want to abandon the physical portion or family portion of your life because you work all the time.
I've been busy with EntreLeadership this week, working 16-hour days. My family hasn't gotten a lot of me this week. But a week from now we're going on a nice cruise for spring break, and they will have my total attention for that week. It's sort of an ebb and flow, and I don't know that you do balance it perfectly. If my wife Sharon thinks the kids need more dad time, she's going to say that.
Sometimes I have people call in who have debt and don't want to work an extra job because they think they won't have any time with their kids. That implies you'll work an extra job for the rest of your life. What if you worked an extra job for three or four months and went crazy cleaning up your debt, so you can then have no debt and some extra money to do something with your kids?
You won't be perfectly in balance with your life. Just be aware of the different areas of life, be intentional about touching those bases, and at times focusing on different portions of who you are as a person. Don't work all the time, you can have ebb and flow and give and take in the process.

High School Basketball
Madison Central outduels Paul Dunbar boys, 66-63, in high-energy clash
RICHMOND — When Madison Central lost senior center Sam Jones (and his double-double talent) to a concussion in the first game of the season, Allen Feldhaus Jr.'s outlook for his Indians was anything but rosy.
But one week into 2015, Madison Central sports an 11-4 record after scrapping its way past Paul Laurence Dunbar 66-63 Tuesday night.
"If you'd told me we'd be without Sam for those 15 games, I would've guessed 4-11 would've been more like it," Feldhaus said. "But we told them, 'You gotta believe in our system, you gotta believe in our program'.
"I think they do believe in what we're trying to do."
John Williams is one of those keeping the faith. The 6-foot-1 junior had 21 points and eight rebounds against visiting Dunbar.
"That's the best game he's played for us in his career," Feldhaus said. "He's our most athletic player, and I like the way he's taking it to the rack, and not afraid of taking the tough defensive challenge."
Williams' three-point play gave Madison Central a 64-61 lead with 1:14 left, and that proved to be the difference.
"Just trying to step up for my team," he said.
Cameron Thomas, a 6-3 senior point guard, had 14 points, five assists and four steals. He had a couple clutch drives and dishes (to Jacob Taylor) in the fourth quarter.
"The biggest difference with Cameron between this year and last is that he's sharing the basketball so much better," Feldhaus said.
Taylor, a 6-0 junior who has taken Jones' place on the blocks, had 11 points and seven rebounds.
"For a guy who'd never played organized basketball before, he's doing a good job in the middle," Feldhaus said.
Kirkland Humphrey, a 5-10 junior, contributed 10 points and five assists to the cause.
"I really like the way this team plays with a lot of energy," Feldhaus said.
Dunbar matched Madison Central's energy and almost pulled out the road victory.
The Bulldogs are happy to see the new year arrive and put December behind them.
They started the season with eight consecutive losses, due in part to having several key players suspended for disciplinary reason. Injuries to big men Jeremy Ward and Jacob Herrin compounded the Bulldogs' problems.
But as Dunbar showed Tuesday night, it has the talent and athleticism to be a factor in the 11th Region.
Darius Williams, a 6-4 junior, had 29 points, seven rebounds and four assists against Madison Central.
He had 27 points after three quarters before Feldhaus threw a box-and-one, and triangle-and-two at him (and Taveion Hollingsworth).
Hollingsworth, a 6-2 sophomore, had 14 points. He and Williams combined to hit six of nine three-pointers.
Jordan Lewis, a 6-0 junior point guard, had eight points, and five assists.
Dunbar Coach Scott Chalk said he was encouraged by what he saw. "We finally had a semblance of a lineup, and everybody kind of got back into their roles. And I thought we played harder."
Dunbar was down 66-63 with :10 and had the ball. It wanted to get a three-point shot for Williams, Hollingsworth or P.J. Corio. But it didn't work out that way.
"From the moment the ball was thrown in bounds, people went the wrong way. That's high school basketball," Chalk said with a chuckle.
"You don't expect them to be perfect."
Madison Central 66, Paul Dunbar 63
PAUL DUNBAR (3-10) — Williams 29, Hollingsworth 14, Lewis 8, Corio 2, Penny 2, Kelley 1, Clark 1, Herrin 4, Blair 2.
MADISON CENTRAL (11-4) — Williams 21, Taylor 12, Thomas 14, Miller 6, Humphrey 10, Brockman 3.
Paul Dunbar 17 17 18 11—63
Madison Central 18 20 11 17—66

Okanagan Artists Trading Cards
Had a great time talking about artist trading cards on Wednesday to the Vernon Hi-Noon Toastmasters. I had given this impromptu speech last month to the Monday Night Club and new I had enough material to talk about at length. I decided to change it up a bit because the Vernon Public Art Gallery has an artist trading card exhibition on right now, and the Hi-Noon club meets in the next building over at the Bean to Cup. I encouraged those thinking about making some art to consider trading cards because the cost is not prohibitive, and every artist is appreciated in this non-hierarchical community of artists.
View this Okanagan Artists website for more images.
My experience making artists trading cards for the Richmond Art Gallery exhibition was quite funny and resulted in my first set being published in the ATC Quarterly Magazine. Basically I was playing around with ink blot figures and out popped some conjoined twins. Many times when I begin to make a two-dimensional art piece I will play with shapes and materials, allowing the piece to reveal itself. View my artists trading cards. When I found the Richmond Art Gallery's call for submissions to the artists trading card show I only had four days to get them in.
I decided to just go with this theme because it was immediately fascinating and also because of the time restraint. Don't be afraid of making any art!

Transparency International New Zealand

Patron, Sir Don McKinnon
Protect our whistleblowers
Transparency International New Zealand (TINZ) calls for better whistleblower protection.
"Whistleblowers – and their protection – are important to preserving New Zealand's reputation," says TINZ Director, David McNeill. "We expect this to be a poignant issue during the election season."
The recent fraud case at the Ministry of Transport highlights the ineffectiveness in existing whistleblowing practice – a senior executive stole over $700,000 before she was caught and jailed and the then CEO lost his new position as Auditor-General. Multiple whistleblowers in this case were unfairly treated and effectively squeezed out by the fraudster.
This case highlights the need to improve protection for whistleblowers and the need for accountability and transparency in the public service. It is important to recognise the personal cost whistleblowers face and protect them from discrimination and recrimination. Instead they should be rewarded and celebrated for their honesty, integrity and bravery on behalf of all New Zealanders. We all observe issues of lack probity in our daily lives, and should have the courage – and support – to say "that's not right".
The TINZ Integrity Plus 2013 New Zealand National Integrity System Assessment provided this warning:
"In the context where individual chief executives carry the main responsibility for the integrity of their organisations, the ability of staff to speak out about wrongdoing is an important safeguard. But the key legal instrument for this purpose is not working well. The Protected Disclosures Act (2000) seems to have had little impact. State Services Commission's Integrity and Conduct Surveys have shown that awareness about this Act is low. Few people seek the Act's protection. A significant number of whistleblowers encounter inaction, and believe they are at risk of retaliation."
We call on parliament to:
- Release Sir Maarten Wevers' report into the Auditor-General's behaviour while CEO at the Ministry to help the public understand the environment that fostered fraud and the obstacles faced by whistleblowers
- Strengthen the Protected Disclosures Act (2000) to support and protect whistleblowers.
We rely on our representatives to make sound decisions on our behalf. In cases like this where there is doubt, they must make strenuous efforts to keep the public informed.
Fraud and corruption is prevented when there is transparency and accountability at all levels of government and society.
Transparency around poor decisions and behaviour is essential to our shared learning on ways to prevent future occurrences.

MADRID, Aug 11 (Reuters) - The U.S. subsidiary of construction and services group ACS has bought civil works business J.F.White to consolidate its position in the United States, the Spanish company said on Monday.
ACS, whose CEO Florentino Perez is also president of Spanish soccer club Real Madrid, has targeted assets and contracts abroad to offset the loss of business at home after the country's decade-long housing boom collapsed in 2008.
It now runs Germany's Hochtief, which in turn controls Australia's Leighton Holdings.
ACS did not say how much its subsidiary, Dragados Construction USA, paid for J.F.White, which had turnover of $257 million last year and has an order book of 50 projects worth $350 million.
"The purchase allows Dragados to enter the market in New England and to consolidate itself as one of the leaders in civil works in the United States," the company said in a statement.
J.F.White, which builds roads, tunnels and under-water structures, is currently leading a consortium building bridges in Longfellow and Fore River in Boston and is part of the group extending one of the lines on Boston's metro railway system.
The acquired business will complement Dragados's operations on the north-east coastline of the United States, ACS said in a statement. (Reporting By Sarah Morris; Additional reporting by Teresa Larraz; Editing by Paul Day and David Goodman)

for the day that you are considering buying a firearm. There are really many reasons why you should consider buying and investing in a gun safe. Here are just some of the most important reasons for owning one.
Hide the gun safe from people
The first great thing, about having and owning a wall gun safe, is because you can hide the safe from everybody. Normally, the first place where a bugler is going to look for a safe, during a break-in is the bedroom. This is because this is the most common place for a safe.
They will not even think about looking in the walls for your safe, and if you are using a great portrait for hiding the gun safe, they will most likely never find it. This is the last place where people will look for a safe. This will keep everything safe and secure.click here to find more details.
Store valuables and money in without any problems
You don't just need to store a firearm or gun in a wall gun safe. You can even store valuables and money in the safe, without any problems. And, because the safe is hidden and secure, no one will be able to gain access to the safe.
And, even if they know where the safe is, if you have a good quality wall gun safe, no one will be able to open and steal any of the valuables inside it. Every household has some items and documentation that need to be safe and secure, and a wall safe is just the place to store these items.
Secure safe, that can't be taken out of home
Because of the fact that the wall gun safe is secure and fasten to the wall, no one will be able to steal the safe and to force it open at another location.
If a burglary is taking place at your home, and even if they spot the wall safe, they will be in a hurry and will not have the time to break the wall safe out of the wall. This means that the safe will be saved and all the valuables and important documentation that is in the gun safe will also be safe and secure. There is no way that anyone can take the safe out of the home. With or without your permission.find out more here.
If you are looking to buy a gun safe, but you are not sure what type of gun safe you can buy that will be secure and providing a safe place for valuables, you can think about buying the wall gun safe. This is because there is not another better gun safe that you can buy for all your guns, and even for some important documentation. Every home should be in possession of a wall gun safe for storing valuables and firearms.

Everywhere in this village in the verdant canyons of Chiapas State there are subtle signs of the presence of the Zapatista rebel army.
Many of the men wear untattered olive green pants and strong-soled combat boots, a kind of informal uniform that the Zapatista organization has encouraged its followers to adopt. Government signs on the one-room schoolhouse have been covered over with fresh paint.
When strangers approach seeking information, villagers turn away and put their fingers to their lips to warn each other to keep quiet.
Until recently the Zapatistas moved openly here. Almost four years ago, when they were riding a surge of popularity after staging a brief armed uprising, they set up their own administration in a town a few miles away down a rocky dirt road. This village and a dozen others in the surrounding rain forest chose to join the new alternative township.
The town had gone by the name of Amparo Agua Tinta, but the Zapatistas rebaptized it Land and Liberty, taking the battle cry of Emiliano Zapata, the Mexican revolutionary of the early 20th century from whom the guerrillas draw their name.Continue reading the main story
The cowed authorities from the Government's political party, the Institutional Revolutionary Party or PRI, quietly stepped aside to make way for the new Zapatista mayor. The Zapatista authorities resolved disputes and issued birth, death and marriage certificates. They even set up a three-cell county jail.
But on May 1, the police and the army occupied the town, drove out the Zapatista officials and burned down the jail. More than 40 Zapatistas were arrested, of whom 8 remain in prison. It was one of four Government operations in recent months to destroy Zapatista town governments, a campaign that rebel leaders labeled ''one of the most ferocious offensives we have ever faced.''
Now the Zapatistas in Rizo de Oro, and in scores of other villages across the Indian regions of Chiapas, have gone quiet. Once they held noisy rallies and blocked the highways with marches. They went about in bandanas or black ski masks that hid their faces but publicized their identities as Zapatistas.
But since June the Zapatistas have suspended their demonstrations, taken down their banners and put away their masks. And from disciplined militants to casual followers, every Indian villager who has anything to do with the Zapatista National Liberation Army is under instructions from the movement's leaders to avoid outsiders, especially reporters.
''We are thinking of setting up our township again somewhere else,'' said Rafael Aguilar Santiz, 22, a Tojolabal Indian corn farmer in Rizo de Oro. After looking over two strangers at great length, he added warily: ''If we do, we might tell people about it. But probably we won't.''
The retreat from public view is a sharp turnabout for the Zapatistas, a guerrilla group that has always emphasized political over military combat.
After only a week of amateurish fighting in January 1994, the rebels' chief strategist, who goes by the nom de guerre Subcommander Marcos, acknowledged that the show of armed force had been largely symbolic, intended to dramatize the Zapatistas' demands for better justice for Indians.
A cease-fire soon went into effect, and the Zapatistas have observed it ever since.
Instead of shooting, the Zapatistas set about creating civilian political organizations in Chiapas. These have included not just alternative townships, but also rural labor unions and associations of their Roman Catholic supporters in the local diocese -- which has backed the Zapatista cause, although not its armed tactics.
Peace talks with the Government collapsed in late 1996, with the Zapatistas accusing the Government of reneging on signed commitments. But the Zapatistas' grass-roots groups continued to spread.
The Government tolerated those groups until this year, when President Ernesto Zedillo decided that the alternative townships were a threat to the legal order in the state and began a political and military offensive against them.
The Government has also tried to show the Indians of Chiapas that it has more to offer them than the Zapatistas. While Rizo de Oro remained relatively quiet, nearby Amparo Agua Tinta, the seat of the former Zapatista township, bustled with Government-financed activity after the takeover on May 1.
The streets were crowded with dump trucks and bulldozers sent in by the state government to pave soggy streets. A mobile health clinic stood in the central square. Public buildings shone with fresh coats of paint.
Many villagers displayed their gratitude at being rescued from years of government neglect by painting the PRI insignia prominently on their houses. But some remained skeptical of the government's largesse.
''We never had any difficulty with the Zapatista authorities,'' said Elias Mendez Agueda, 30, even though he admitted to being a PRI loyalist. ''The Government wanted them out. We didn't have anything to do with it.''
President Zedillo argues that his policies have laid the groundwork for the peace talks to resume.
''The Government wants a dialogue, right now,'' Mr. Zedillo said emphatically during a trip to Chiapas in late July. ''Those who believe that the Government wants war are completely mistaken. They who propagate that idea,'' he said of the Zapatistas, ''are lost in the emptiness of their own fantasies.''
But in practice the Government's actions have driven the Zapatistas farther from the negotiating table and deep into a secrecy that seems intended primarily to make it more difficult for Government troops and intelligence operatives to monitor their activities.
[The administration of Land and Liberty gave one recent signal that it is still operating in exile by putting out a message on the Internet calling for emergency aid for villagers in the region whose homes were destroyed in floods in September.]
Although this small village is buried in backlands many miles from the nearest telephone, people here are keenly aware that they are locked in a sophisticated conflict.
Recently PRI leaders in the region leaked a false report to the press that Rizo de Oro had been host to a formal ceremony to re-establish the shattered Zapatista township. The PRI followers apparently hoped the ruse would draw army troops into this Zapatista town.
Mr. Aguilar, the farmer, contemplated taking advantage of the strangers' visit to set the record straight that no such ceremony had taken place. With a gesture signaling the visitors to wait, he disappeared for consultations with other, unseen villagers, presumably local Zapatista leaders.
Not long ago the Zapatistas might have been eager to air their grievances and propagate their political views. But this time Mr. Aguilar returned to say that local rebels had chosen silence. His goodbye was curt: ''We have nothing more to say.''Continue reading the main story

"What should I make for dinner tonight?" represents one of those daily questions that stir many thoughts and disturb your peace of mind. Most of the times, you end up wandering around supermarkets hoping that you will find the much-needed answer but you do not even have the time for that because the hunger is killing you and the children are waiting for you at home impatiently. The bottom line is that if you do not take action, you will always have to solve this dilemma. The worst part is that you have to repeat the same process each day resulting in seven meals a week. Well, we cannot call them meals but dinners because you have three meals a day leading to twenty-one meals a week. Thus, you have an overwhelming number of twenty-one meals a week including seven dinners. You probably traced a line between the refrigerator and the table by now. Fortunately, we have the answer for you: menu planning.
The benefits of menu planning
It practically consists in taking the time to plan the meals ahead and enjoying great rewards. For instance, you no longer have to make trips to the supermarket each day and decide on the spot what products to purchase in order to cook a decent meal. Menu planning is simpler than you imagine and it provides great benefits. First, it helps you save money. Every time you enter a supermarket or any store, you have to deal with impulse spending. However, by reducing visits to the respective store, you no longer need to control your desire to purchase all types of items. Instead, you will start buying large quantities of products in order to cook the meals planned. Secondly, it improves nutrition. You can use the time saved in order to prepare salad and other healthy side dishes for the family, thus adopting a more balanced lifestyle. Moreover, you can even order food, more precisely seafood from many websites like https://www.crabdynasty.com and have the certainty that you will receive quality products beneficial for the children.
Steps you need to follow
All know that the beginning is difficult, regardless of the magnitude of the process. Nevertheless, you have to approach a determined and ambitious attitude in order to complete this mission. Thinking that it could change entirely your way of living as well as your health and your well-being might represent a strong incentive. You just have to follow several easy steps. First, you have to make sure that you purchase enough food for seven dinners when going to the supermarket. Secondly, you have to minimize the time you used to spend on cooking and cleaning. You can even examine food ads in order to seize special offers and sales. This will really make a difference for your budget. Do not throw away the purchases you made last week because you can still use them. Search detailed recipes that will guide you throughout the cooking process. When completing each step, make sure that you note down your accomplishment.

Court:UTTARAKHAND HIGH COURT
Bench: JUSTICE Prafulla C. Pant & Sudhanshu Dhulia
NEELAM BISHT Vs. NARENDRA SINGH BISHT On 19 May 2011
Law Point:
Merely for the reason that wife is suffering from illness, no justification on part of wife for deserting her husband and live in adultry. Divorce on ground of desertion.
This appeal preferred under Section 28 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 (wrongly mentioned under Section 19 of the Family Courts Act, 1984) is directed against the judgment and order dated 27.3.2010, passed by Civil Judge (Senior Division), Pithoragarh, whereby said Court has allowed the petition filed by the husband under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 against the appellant (wife) (in District Pithoragarh no Family Court is established).
2. Heard learned Counsel for the parties, and perused the lower Court record.
3. Brief facts of the case are that respondent Narendra Singh Bisht got married to Neelam Bisht (present appellant) on 10.2.1981 following the Hindu rites. Out of the wedlock, two daughters, namely, Mamta Bisht and Nabita Bisht and two sons, namely, Gaurav Bisht and Pankaj Bisht were born. Respondent Narendra Singh Bisht (husband) filed a divorce petition before the Trial Court alleging that in the year 1999, the appellant left the house of the respondent without any sufficient cause. It is also pleaded by the husband that appellant Neelam Bisht lives in adultery with Jogendra Ram @ Jogi Ram (respondent No. 2 before the Trial Court) in Dharchula. It is also stated by the petitioner (husband) that he got purchased a house for his wife in Nainital, but she sold the same and purchased a piece of land in Pithoragarh, whereafter the said property was also sold by her. It is also alleged in the petition that Neelam Bisht (wife) started making money by defrauding the unemployed youths promising them that she would provide them job. It is further alleged that a criminal case was registered against her, and she was arrested, and in the lockup, she came in contact with Jogendra Ram @ Jogi Ram (respondent No. 2 before the Trial Court) and after the two got released, they started living in Dharchula. Apart from the ground of adultery, the husband has further pleaded that the appellant had deserted him without any sufficient cause. On the said two grounds, divorce decree was prayed by the husband.
4. The appellant contested the petition of divorce before the Trial Court, and filed a written statement. She admitted that she got married to Narendra Singh Bisht. She also admitted that four children were born out of the wedlock. However, she pleaded that she has not deserted her husband, rather it is the husband who has left his wife by making allegations against her that she was mentally ill. Though it is admitted by her that a criminal case was registered against her, but she alleged the same to be false. Neelam Bisht (wife) admitted in her written statement that she was living with Jogendra Ram @ Jogi Ram in Dharchula, but denied that she has any illicit relations with him. Jogendra Ram @ Jogi Ram also filed a separate written statement before the Trial Court. He pleaded in his written statement that the relations between him and Neelam Bisht are that of landlord and tenant only. However, respondent No. 2 did not contest the petition further, and as against him suit proceeded ex parte. But the appellant (wife) continued to contest the suit till the end.
5. On the basis of the pleadings of the parties, following issues were framed by the Trial Court:
(1) Whether opposite party No. 1 Neelam Bisht was living adulterous life with opposite party No. 2 Jogendra Ram? If so, its effect?
(2) Whether opposite party No. 1 (wife) has deserted the petitioner (husband) since 2001? If so, its effect?
(3) To what relief, if any, the petitioner is entitled?
6. Both the parties led their oral evidence, and also filed documentary evidence. The Trial Court after considering the evidence on record, and after hearing the parties, decided both the issues in favour of the husband, holding that the wife was living in adultery, and she deserted her husband. Accordingly, vide impugned judgment and order dated 27.3.2010, the Trial Court (Civil Judge (Sr. Division), Pithoragarh) in Suit No. 41 of 2008, Trial Court decreed the suit for divorce and allowed the petition under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. Hence, this appeal.
7. Mr. D.S. Mehta, learned Counsel for the appellant submitted that the Trial Court has erred in law holding that the appellant was living in adultry. He contended that it was the husband, who ousted the appellant from his house, as such, it cannot be held that she deserted her husband. To appreciate the arguments advanced on behalf of the appellant, we went through the evidence on record.
8. D.W. 1 Neelam Bisht (present appellant) has admitted in her statement that she got married to Narendra Singh Bisht, and four children were born out of the wedlock. However, she has stated in her affidavit, filed before the Trial Court, that the allegations of leading life of adultery, and relating to desertion of her husband are wrong. But in her cross-examination, she admitted that she stood criminal trial in connection with Criminal Case No. 92 of 2003 relating to offences punishable under Sections 420, 467, 468 and 471, IPC, in which she remained in the judicial custody (later convicted). She has further admitted that while she was in lockup, she came in contact with Jogendra Ram @ Jogi Ram (respondent No. 2 before Trial Court), who is resident of Dharchula. She further admitted in her cross-examination that she lives in Dharchula in the house of Jogendra Ram. Not only this, she has further admitted that she is running shop of Jogendra Ram in Dharchula. In these circumstances, the Trial Court has believed the evidence adduced by P.W.1 Narendra Singh Bisht that his wife Neelam Bisht is living in adultery with Jogendra Ram. Having reassessed the evidence on record, we do not find that the Trial Court has committed any error of law in coming to the conclusion that the appellant was living in adultery with Jogendra Ram in Dharchula.
9. As to the desertion, P.W.1 Narendra Singh Bisht has stated that his wife Neelam Bisht (present appellant) withdrew her from his society without any sufficient cause. He has further stated that he purchased house for his wife in Nainital, which she sold, and thereafter purchased a piece of land in Pithoragarh and later the same was also disposed of by her. In his cross- examination P.W. 1 Narendra Singh Bisht has stated that after January, 2002 she never joined his company. He has further stated that the conjugal relations did not revive between the parties to matrimony after 26th of July, 1999, when for the first time, she left the company of her husband.
10. In reply to this, in the cross-examination of D.W.1, it has come that a house was purchased in her name but she says that to save his income from income tax, the husband purchased said house. She further stated that with the consent of her husband, she sold the property at Nainital, and purchased one at Pithoragarh. In her affidavit, D.W.1 Neelam Bisht has not disclosed on which date she was forcibly ousted by her husband from his house. In the circumstances, in our opinion, Trial Court has rightly believed the statement of the husband that his wife deserted him without any sufficient cause.
11. Mr. D.S. Mehta, learned Counsel for the appellant submitted that the wife was suffering from epilepsy and due to her illness, she cannot be held responsible for not joining the company of her husband. Epilepsy is a disease which has effect only during seizure, and after the patient comes out of it, he/she has no difficulty in understanding his responsibilities and duties. As such, merely for that reason, we do not see any justification on the part of the appellant for deserting her husband or living with Jogendra Ram @ Jogi Ram in Dharchula.
12. For the reasons as discussed above, we find no force in this appeal, which is liable to be dismissed. The appeal is dismissed. No order as to costs.
Appeal dismissed.

In MoodyTalks #2 – James Moody shares his golden nugget inspired by the story of the prophet Elijah and the false prophets found in 1 Kings 18-19.
God has given you the capacity to do great things for him but he also hasn't forgotten who you are. God understands what you need and what you're capable of doing; after all he created you!
Don't be afraid to enter in God's presence and entrust every aspect of your life over to Him and witness the amazing things he can do in and through your life.
