Trackrod Rally Yorkshire crashes investigated by police
Police are investigating whether part of a rally course was deliberately sabotaged so onlookers would be able to film car crashes.
A pile of wood chips used as a braking marker at the Trackrod Rally Yorkshire was covered up with tree branches, North Yorkshire Police believe.
It happened during stage one of the race on 26 September in Dalby Forest.
Nineteen cars came off the track as "drivers had no indication of the upcoming corner", police said.
Nobody was injured but a force spokesperson said: "Officers believe that the braking marker may have been deliberately covered up to cause a collision which people could film and are trying to establish whether any criminal offences have been committed.
"The police are urging witnesses to come forward and anyone who saw the collision may have information that can help the investigation."

- Setting up LED and screen connection: The tiny foam connection cable provided with the kit is the key to the most intricate part of this tutorial. You have to put the connection cable in perfect alignment to the pins. Just make sure the center pin of the screen connector and the foam are in alignment and the rest will line up.
- Sealing the connection: Once we have the pins aligned, we take another piece of insulation foam and gently press it sealing the right side of the cable. This will create a proper insulation and remember if at the end of the tutorial the led logo of your Apple device is not lighting up, this is most likely the step you are doing wrong.

If you are on the fence about purchasing F1 2018, head on over to OCC and read their review.
Is F1 2018 a game worth your time or should you stay in low gear for it? If you are looking for a good racing game that is more than an arcade experience, then I do think it is worth it. The game offers a lot, even without getting into the simulation details, and for me at least, it has all been fun.

Ardrossan-Arran ferry route 'to be restored within 24 hours'
One of Scotland's busiest ferry routes should return to service within 24 hours, port operators have said.
The failure of both linkspans at Ardrossan has caused days of disruption with vehicles unable to transfer from the CalMac ferry to the off ramp.
It meant the route between the North Ayrshire port and Brodick on the Isle of Arran has been left passenger-only.
Peel Ports, which operates the Ardrossan site, said "good progress" was being made on repairs.
A company spokeswoman said: "We can confirm repairs to the linkspan are under way.
"Once the work is completed, a full safety testing regime will be initiated."
Businesses hit
The spokeswoman added that, subject to weather conditions, normal operations should resume on Wednesday.
The issue emerged on Sunday and has caused disruption to services and island life since.
One hotelier told BBC Scotland that 50 customers had cancelled bookings as a result of the problems.
The MV Caledonian Isles, which serves the route between Ardrossan and Brodick, was initially diverted to Troon, 10 miles (16km) south of the intended destination.
CalMac had said it was pressing Peel Ports to get the problem fixed urgently.
The ferry company said both technical failures were outside its control and it had tried to minimise disruption as much as possible.
Peel Ports has apologised for the inconvenience caused and said the company "remained committed to resuming the service as soon as possible".

French rail workers started clearing thick foliage on Thursday from around the Calais Eurostar stop where 150 migrants stormed a Paris-London train, as police said they feared more attempts "in the coming days and on a "regularly basis".
The work of British passengers were trapped overnight on Tuesday in the Eurostar, much of it in the dark with no electricity or air conditioning, at Calais Fréthun station – the last stop before the Channel Tunnel.
Bernard Cazeneuve, the French interior minister, conceded on Wednesday that the station and track around it was a "weak link" in otherwise improved security around the Channel Tunnel.
Photo: Steve Finn/The Telegraph
SNCF Réseau, the national rail infrastructure operator, began work to clear trees and thick scrub from 37 hectares around the station by the end of next month, with the aim of making it harder for migrants to hide and easier for the police to spot any approaching the station or surrounding tracks.
They will also erect 7.5 miles of high security fencing "identical to that used in the port of Calais", and said they have created a new unit to "repair damaged fencing". Currently, even a child could scale the low barriers by the track 100 yards from Calais-Frethun station.
Despite the measures, security sources warned Le Figaro newspaper that they feared more attempts to stop passenger trains "in the coming days" and that the problem could occur on a "regular basis".
One rail source called the entire exercise a "waste of time", saying that the high fences were no problem for the migrants. "They simply get out their cutters and make holes and we come back every day and repair them," he said.
Photo: Steve Finn/The Telegraph
The Telegraph observed one migrant wandering inside the Eurotunnel site on Thursday untroubled by rail workers as they cleared shrubs.
Manuel Valls, the French prime minister declared on Monday: "Today the Franco-UK borders are fully under control. To come to Calais is to throw yourself into a dead end."
However, Gilles Debove of police union Unité SGP-Police FO in Calais told the Telegraph: "The problem will persist even if Britain paid for fences all the way from Calais to Lille" as they would simply "further back down the line".
Photo: Steve Finn/The Telegraph
He said the only way to dissuade more from coming was by pressing charges against those who trespass on the tracks. In theory they face a maximum six-month prison sentence and a €3,750 (£2,740) for doing so, but in reality almost always all are simply "reminded of the law and released", said Mr Debove.
The UK pumped £7 million into security at the Channel Tunnel in the wake of mass migrant break-ins over the summer. On Thursday, new high fencing was being erected along the track yards from the Channel Tunnel entrance.

By Sabrina Roblin
When I was young, I had a dream of being a singer/songwriter and Carole King was my idol. I would spend lots of time at the piano; I taught myself how to play guitar and listened to all the music I could get my hands on. I wrote some songs and then came college, marriage, a child and full engagement in my career as an executive. All that pushed music into the background. The dream and the longing never went away and yet I lost my connection to it. When I retired from my executive life last year, that new freedom opened the door for me to reengage the dream.
Within months of retiring, I picked up my guitar again. I found a singing teacher and a neighborhood band to play and sing with, and when a friend of mine asked me if I'd like to join her on her trip to Nashville, I immediately said, "Yes!" It was one of the most inspiring trips I've ever taken. I ended up playing open mic at the Bluebird Cafe, one of the world's most iconic yet unassuming listening rooms where chart-topping artists (and regular folks) come to perform their music unplugged, unannounced. Playing at Bluebird was a dream in itself for me! I came home and wrote a new song, and now have a songwriting mentor.
At this stage of life, whether I end up on a world stage like Carole King or not doesn't matter. It's about re-engaging the dream, learning new skills as a musician and songwriter, and enjoying the process. I have regained what I thought I had lost back in my childhood, I'm having a lot of fun, and my life truly is reinspired.
When we come to the end of our careers as we've known them and move into the next chapter, reclaiming things we loved to do as a child can really enrich this next chapter of life. The wisdom and resources we gained during our hard-working career years can give us the freedom to reclaim and reengage our childhood dreams and make these later years the most creative and fulfilling of our lives.
So if you have retired or are thinking of retiring from your full-time career and aren't sure what you'll do, look back into your childhood for those things you loved to do and for those dreams you never followed. They are still in your heart and will show you the way to making your next chapter the most creative and fulfilling of your life.
Join us at Life Reinspired, a life reset lab for successful Baby Boomers contemplating a meaningful next chapter. Find out more about our retreats.

Logan Continues Undefeated Conference Streak with Win at Lincoln Trail
Despite the long road trip on a weekday night and a variety of nagging injuries which caused significant adjustments to the lineup, the Vols were able to put together a solid performance at Robinson, IL to defeat Lincoln Trail 25-16, 25-19, 25-17.
The Vols were led by excellent performances from both starting outside hitters. Kim Hall once again showed her consistency and led the team with 16 kills and added 12 digs. In 3 games of work, Kim had only one hitting error and ended up hitting .536 for the night. Freshman outside Olivia Hallet also had an amazing night with 14 kills with a hitting efficiency of .393 and 12 digs. Sophomore setter Shelbey Saye led the team with 21 assists.
"Our outside hitters really had an amazing night. We pointed out a couple different weaknesses in the Lincoln Trail defense that our outsides could attack, and they did so very effectively. Although we struggled with our passing and ball control, we were able to make up for that deficiency with aggressive outside hitting. We also were able to move those girls around more than usual, allowing them to attack the defense from a variety of positions. It worked out well last night, and hopefully added a dimension to our offense for the future," said Coach Burnside.

The wheels on the Bustaurant are about to officially go round and round.
The double-decker restaurant on wheels has passed its health inspection, according to the mobile eatery's website.
"Good news we are rolling soon, a soft roll this weekend and off to the races next week. Launching the week of St Patrick's Day we will throw down and Irish Bunny for the week of Irish madness," according to Friday's post titled "Passed Health, It's On."
For the not-so-worldly eaters out there, a Bunny Chow is a South African street worker food. Picture a hollowed-out loaf of bread filled with chicken curry (or just look at this picture, or this video).
We've patiently been waiting to enjoy some Bunnies of our own, and now thanks to the health inspection, it looks like that could be sooner rather than later.

Lets play Crazy Taxi on the Sega Dreamcast – 2 Player points challenge!
TGS boys take on a 3 minute dash around the city to see who can earn the most cash in this epic video game.
Crazy Taxi is a open world racing video game developed by Hitmaker (Sega AM3) and published by Sega. It is the first game in the Crazy Taxi series. The game was first released in arcades in 1999 and was ported to the Dreamcast in 2000. Subsequently, it was ported to the PlayStation 2 and Nintendo GameCube by Acclaim in 2001, and then Microsoft Windows in 2002. The game was released on November 16, 2010 for the PlayStation Network and on November 24, 2010 for the Xbox Live Arcade. It is featured on the Dreamcast Collection. An iOS version was released on October 10, 2012.
Reception to Crazy Taxi has been mostly positive and it became one of the few Sega All Stars. It has also earned Greatest Hits status on PlayStation 2 andPlayer's Choice status on GameCube. Sega followed up on the success of Crazy Taxi by making a sequel, Crazy Taxi 2 for the Dreamcast, which included several gameplay changes. It would also be bundled with Crazy Taxi 2 in Crazy Taxi: Fare Wars, and later be bundled with other Dreamcast hits in Dreamcast Collection. Crazy Taxi 3: High Roller was released for the Xbox on July 23, 2002, and later released as a PC title in 2004.
The main objective of the game is to pick up customers and take them to their chosen destination as quickly as possible. Along the way, money can be earned by performing stunts such as near misses with other vehicles. The player is directed to a destination by a large green arrow at the top of the screen. The arrow does not adjust based on obstacles, but rather points in the general direction of the destination. Once the player arrives near the destination, they must stop within a specified zone. When the destination is reached, that customer's fare is added to the player's total money earned. Ratings are then awarded depending on how long the player took to complete the journey. If the customer's timer runs out before the player reaches the destination the customer jumps from the taxi.
Players can select three, five or ten minute settings, or the Arcade Rules used in the original coin-op version of the game. In the three time-limited settings, play continues for the designated period of time, after which the cab automatically stops and no more points can be scored. Under Arcade Rules, the player starts with an initial time limit of one minute, which can be extended through time bonuses earned for quick deliveries. Console versions of the game also feature a mode known as Crazy Box, a set of minigames that feature challenges such as picking up and dropping off a number of customers within a time limit, bowling using the taxi as a ball, and popping giant balloons in a field.
The arcade version of the game includes one stage, and an additional "Original" stage was added for the console versions. Both stages are based in sunny coastal California locales, with steep hills and other strong similarities to San Francisco. The player has a choice of four drivers and their cabs, each of whom has slightly different attributes.

by Michael Bilsborough
We are pleased to present photographs by SVACE student James Weber. Mr. Weber exhibits this artwork in conjunction with the courses "Digital Photography I" with Bina Altera, "Black-and-White Photography" with Michael Katchen, and two courses with Silvio Wolf: "Visible and Invisible: The Lens as Interpretation of Reality" and "Seeing is Thinking: The Image as Threshold of Reality."
Mr. Weber writes that he "picked up a camera as part of a catharsis from his Vietnam War experience. It was his way of seeing and recording with a mechanical device. It has been a passion and a ceaseless source of joy and fulfillment that continues to this day."

Megadeth has just wrapped up with a blistering back-to-back playing of 1992's "Symphony of Destruction" and their 1986 mega hit "Peace Sells."
Dave Mustaine, Megadeth's founder, frontman and guitar god, broke out the double-neck guitar for a powerful rendition of "In My Darkest Hour." Mustaine puts the speed in speed metal.
Chris Broderick closed the set with two awe-inspiring guitar solos, combined with Mustaine's thunder, for a classic metal send off.
By the way, the most popular concert T-shirt for a band NOT playing here today, by far, is Iron Maiden. maybe 10 percent of the T's are for Maiden. Overall, of course, Metallica T-shirts dominate the grounds.

Choices, Choices, Choices…
Choices, Choices, Choices…
In today's college market, options can be overwhelming for those pursuing a Christian post-secondary education. Should you attend a small school or a large one? Is teacher to student ratio the most important thing, or do you need to pay more attention to how many classes are taught by graduate students instead of professors? Does it matter how many graduate students there are if you are pursuing an undergraduate degree? How much does in-state tuition differ from out-of-state rates when it comes to private schools? What is the difference between a college and a university anyway? The questions are endless, and that is without even touching on issues such as whether or not the school you are interested in carries the program you are interested in studying and how much financial aid they award every year. Frankly, deciding you want to attend a Christian college does not help narrow down the list of potential options nearly as much as you would expect. In some ways, this is a good thing.

Extending the Eclectic Paradigm in International Business
Essays in Honor of John Dunning
Edited by H. Peter Gray
Chapter 9: The Multiple Dimensions of International Involvement: An Empirical Test
Rajneesh Narula and Katharine Wakelin
Rajneesh Narula and Katharine Wakelin INTRODUCTION The post-war era has been a period of significant growth in both world trade and foreign direct investment (FDI) by multinational enterprises (MNEs). The two are closely interconnected as trade is increasingly internalised by MNEs, with almost one-third of world trade estimated to be conducted on an intra-firm basis (UNCTAD, 1994). Despite these facts, MNE activity is largely ignored by most international trade theorists. The competitiveness of a country, i.e. its ability to compete on international markets, is determined not just by its trade performance, but also by the activities of foreign-owned affiliates, and the investments of its MNEs overseas. However, the literatures on the theory and determinants of trade and FDI have remained largely independent of each other. This chapter seeks to address this shortcoming, by attempting to unite our understanding of trade and FDI and their interrelatedness by evaluating these issues within a common framework. We utilise a neo-Schumpeterian approach that regards technology as playing a central role in competitiveness. This chapter aims to extend the neo-Schumpeterian approach to trade, which stresses the importance of absolute differences in technology in influencing export performance, to consider the absolute advantage of a country (and specifically the firms within a country) in a broader sense than its trade performance alone. For the purposes of this chapter, absolute advantage is seen to operate in two distinct ways. The first, and that emphasised by the neo-Schumpeterian school (see for instance Dosi,...

bearing the diamond mint mark of circulation issues. Beginning in 1972
proofs of the larger denominations - 10, 20 and 100 rupees -were partly

Impressive passenger space in an AUDI A8 and its longer wheel base ensure that rare-seat passengers are accommodation nicely. The interior is good enough and can be equipped with all the manner of luxury options, including front and rare massaging seats, a footwarmer for rare seats passengers and individual entertainment tablets in the back.
But it's up front, in it's informative system, where the big changes have happened. Centered on the dashboard in a 10.1 inch acknowledge inputs with a pulse when tapped. Below that on the center stock is a second screen, which functions primarily to display HVAC cotrols but can be used for other operations, including Google or Navigation searches via handwriting recognition. The move to hoptic eliminates most buttons as well as nearly every knob from the A8's cockpit. But the system is highly configureable, allowing owners to choose their own dedicates buttons on the lower screen while offering permanent buttons for navigation, wheather, telephone functions and radio on the left side of the upper screen. Even though you'll need to look down to find the "buttons", you'll not get impatient with the system.

Before the front wheels encounter an evelated bump, the body in raised to provide the additional susspension travel needed to absorb the imperfection. Then, as the car passes over, the susspension is extendedto trace the road's topography. Dips and single-wheel events are handled similarly, with the wheels following the terrain while the body remains isolated. The system pro ides 20 inches of lift and 2.4 inches of drop at each wheel, enough to make speed bumps and manhole covers virtually irrelevant. AUDI's drive select system is standard and offer three driving modes (AUTO, COMFORT AND DYNAMICS) and also integrates control of the AI susspensio on cars so equipped.

Everyone loves summer in Mallorca, but we kind of think winter is the most charming seasons of them all, especially around the holidays. Christmas markets and nativity scenes start cropping up across the island, spreading festive cheer, and twinkling lights illuminate quaint towns and villages nestled in the mountains. Things get cozy and magical. And some of the holiday customs and rituals, steeped in long-held traditions, might surprise you. We consulted with our Mimo Mallorca team to find out more about what happens during the holidays on the island.
Christmas markets
Christmas fairs and markets here are enchanting, and a great place to shop for some handmade gifts. In Palma, the main markets are in Plaza Mayor and Plaza de España. You'll even find a bit of Scandinavian holiday cheer on this Mediterranean island – the Swedish Church in Palma is home to a Christmas Bazaar every year, with Swedish decorations and foods like gingerbread and glögg (Swedish mulled wine). To add even more cheer to this jovial cityscape, festive lights twinkle to life at the end of November and last through Three Kings' Day in January.

Song of the Sibil-la
The most celebrated day is Christmas Eve, la Nochebuena, a day for family gatherings, joyful eating, and midnight mass. If there's one thing you do when in Mallorca for the holidays, let it be the Misa del Galo. Palma's cathedral is packed for the occasion, as are most churches across the island. One of the most important and special moments of the mass is when El Cant de la Sibil-la (The Song of the Sibyl) is performed, a tradition that originated in the 10th century and was brought to Mallorca by King Jaime I. A child dressed in medieval clothing carries a sword through the cathedral and sings this ancient song – a Gregorian chant – that announces the arrival of the final judgment. The apocalyptic words alone paint quite a picture: "Great fire from the heaven will come down; seas, fountains and rivers, all will burn. Fish will scream loudly and in horror losing their natural delights." It's a magical yet eerie moment.
The song is performed in churches across the island. Forbidden by the pope in the 16th century, this tradition all but disappeared across Europe. Mallorca remains one of the only places where the ancient song is still alive, and was declared a UNESCO Intangible Heritage Tradition in 2010. Another great place to watch this thousand-year-old tradition is in the Sanctuary of Lluc, a monastery in Escorca.
After midnight mass, most people go for a cup of thick hot chocolate and ensaïmada, meeting with friends and families over a sweet bite. Cafes stay open and the streets stay lively on this special day.

Se van a llenar las redes de lindas fotos de madres e hijos de diversas edades. Está bien pero ser madre es otra historia. Desde que la criatura llega a tu vida por la vía que sea.,no hay vuelta atrás. Ser o no ser padres.Esa es la diferencia y ahí está esta gran aventura con la que aprendemos cada día.Tampoco todas las madres son para premiarlas ni todos los hijos les mandan flores… Consejo del día: celébrate a ti misma como madre. Desayuna con tu madre, o con tu hijo o con cualquier otra madre que tengas cerca, o sola que no pasa nada si en este día no están contigo pero es importante que te hagas un homenaje intimo y personal. No solo el primer domigo de mayo, sino cada vez que se tercie.

By comparison, Christmas Day is a more low-key affair, a day to be spent with family around the table. The main meal is the Christmas lunch, a feast that can last for hours. Some people choose to exchange gifts on this day, but the more typical and traditional time to do that is Three Kings' Day in January.
Festive food
Christmas Day feasting is a rich, delicious, and lengthy endeavor! The main event is a juicy roasted suckling pig, porcella, or sometimes a turkey stuffed with wine-soaked apricots, prunes, raisins, and nuts. Other standards include the sopa de Nadal, a Christmas soup that's a broth filled with large shell pasta stuffed with minced meat. This is the most popular one, but there are several other types of traditional soups that may make an appearance on the Christmas table, such as sopa dorada, which is with onion, meat, and sobrassada as well as some sherry, or the crema almendra, creamy almond soup.
Almonds, an important island crop, also make an appearance in the desserts. Almond cake is popular as well as tambor d'ametlla (almond nougat), and turrón is always around to sweeten up the meal.
New Year's
Like the rest of Spain, New Year's Eve in Mallorca is celebrated by eating 12 grapes at midnight. People congregate in town squares for the big event, awaiting the bell toll signaling the New Year – and eating one grape for every chime – for good luck. The San Silvestre Race and a Flag Celebration, L'Estandart, which commemorates King Jaime I's arrival in Palma in 1229, round out the festivities on this special day.

Three Kings' Day
One of the biggest days in Mallorca is Three Kings' Day, or actually the eve of, January 5th. This day of grand festivities is a highlight for kids and when most of the gift giving happens. The Three Kings parade through town, theatrically arriving by boat in Port Vell. Fireworks, floats, music, and tons of people greet the highly anticipated guests, who parade through the city on camel, throwing candy into the crowds along the way. Though the main event takes place in Palma, this festive parading is replicated in towns across Mallorca.
Common fare on this day? A crown-shaped Three Kings Cake, Roscón de Reyes, that hides a surprise: a bean and small figurine of a king is baked into the cake. The lucky finder of the king gets to be "king for the day," complete with golden paper crown, while the discoverer of the bean has to buy next year's cake.

North Devon Archaeological Society has received £15,200 from the Heritage Lottery
Fund (HLF) for an exciting project, 'The Missing Link-
Work will start soon to analyse the several tons of pottery found on the site, which was next to the old Brannam Pottery. We aim to make the important discoveries accessible through publications, talks and public events, culminating in the national Festival of Archaeology in July this year.
North Devon has been an important centre of pottery manufacture since the 14th century,
and during the 17th century its distinctive 'Sgraffito' wares were exported to the
Americas. This assemblage represents the little-
Members of North Devon Archaeological Society are looking forward to working with the Museum of Barnstaple and North Devon, South West Archaeology and acknowledged experts from around the UK to deliver the project.

Nerys Watts, Head of Heritage Lottery Fund South West, said: 'Thanks to National Lottery players, North Devon Archaeological Society has the chance to recover the "missing link" in its unique pottery history. This project will see regional archaeology groups working together to share valuable information and preserve Devon's pottery history.'

Time is running out for a number of wildlife species that are an integral part of the ecosystem. Recognising this growing urgency for the animals, and for man, more than 100 participants from ministries, NGOs, embassies and research institutions met at the British Embassy in Berlin on 22 January for an event on the fight against wildlife crime. Their focus was how to more jointly combat activities such as the poaching of rhinos for their horns, the killing of elephants for ivory, or the trade in endangered reptiles.
A panel discussion featuring four prominent actors in the fight against the illegal wildlife trade (list below) examined how developed and developing countries can work together better. The audience actively participated with their own views and questions.
Europe was highlighted as a destination or transit point for the global smuggling of animal products. It was stated that Europe needs to "get its own house in order," by focusing on reducing demand for poached products and strengthening detection measures at borders – before insisting that developing countries implement new measures to limit supplies of illegal goods. Audience members suggested ideas such as implementing sanctions on destination countries, revising penalties to be steep enough to effectively deter the practice, and fighting the trade further on the Internet.
Poverty and the lack of alternative sources of income factors were recognised as inherent factors in developing countries, leading people to engage in wildlife crimes, so much that it was stated that poaching is no longer just a conservation issue, but a development issue. The involvement of local communities was seen as crucial to both preventing poaching and ensuring livelihoods. The loss of pastoral societies and the proliferation of arms were key concerns, because the attitude of "who cares about the elephant when I'm trying to survive" reflects the need to find a way to empower local people so that poaching is not the only viable choice for livelihood.
Recognising the importance of changing the socio-economic aspect, it was stressed that prevention clearly trumps enforcement, because it's too late when the animals are dead.

The wildlife event was opened with remarks from the British Ambassador to Germany, HMA Simon McDonald. Christiane Gerstetter with the Ecologic Institute then introduced EFFACE to the audience. Christiane remarked that one problem is that environmental crime is considered difficult to measure and enforce, and authorities may often opt to prosecute on related fraud charges instead of pursuing the more difficult conviction of environmental crime.
Eberhard Brandes, CEO of WWF Germany, provided an overview of the dire threats to iconic species and local rangers' work in protecting them, noting that the illegal wildlife trade is now worth an estimated €10 billion annually. Much of it is channeled through uncontrolled financial flows, potentially supporting armed rebel groups, organized crime and other illegal activities. However, Eberhard noted that more governments are taking responsibility for combating these crimes.
The panel members, moderated by R. Andreas Kraemer, Director of Ecologic Institute:
· Margit Hellwig-Bötte, a Visiting Fellow in the Middle East and Africa Division of the German Institute for International and Security Affairs (SWP)
· Roberto Zolho, Coordinator of the Rovuma Landscape for the WWF East Africa Programme
· Dr. Jennifer Maher, Senior Lecturer in Criminology at the University of South Wales
· Simon Gallagher, the Deputy Head of Mission of the British Embassy in Berlin

The People of the Sierra
The People of the Sierra
This book is about a Spanish town. More precisely, it examines the social structure of a rural community in the mountains of southern Spain. To demand the reader's attention for a whole volume in order to interpret to him the habitual goings-on in so insignificant a place might be asking too much of him, but that in order to do this it has been necessary--or, might I say, through doing this it has been possible?--to say a good deal about the nature of Andalusian society, and even to sketch certain hypotheses of sociological theory. Yet this is not a discourse on the principles of social organisation. On the contrary, my concern is to set forth facts and only such general formulations as are required in order to relate them one to another. For I believe that every description of social life carries in the method and terms it employs an implied theory of society, while on the other hand theories which aim to lay down the principles of sociology, however great their potential value, remain until an observer can make use of them in a particular instance something uncertain, unassessable as an unopened seam of gold which may not, when brought to the surface, repay the cost of mining it.
Nevertheless, there is one point of theory to which I would like to draw attention before I begin, and that concerns the meaning of the term "social structure", since this is used by some writers in quite another way. They use it to mean the composition of a society in terms of percentages of persons belonging to one or another category of age, sex, monetary income or status, and so on. This is not what a social anthropologist means by social structure. For him the word "structure" implies something composed of interdependent parts, and the parts of a social structure are not individuals but activities or institutions. A society is not an agglomeration of persons but a system of social relations.
