'India, the Eternal' is a book written towards peace, prosperity and harmony of all humanity. As means to achieve that, three key steps are discussed: redefining the human identity system, reminding ourselves about the concept of Dharma (Ethics) and finally, redefining an individual's success. These methods are then employed to prescribe solutions to a severe problem of the modern world, the situation in the Indian subcontinent. The first chapter of the book looks back at the partition and independence of India from a neutral viewpoint. In the second chapter, the book proposes a manifesto towards a caste-free society in India. The third chapter goes on to outline a plan to reunite India as a country having multiple Political States. The fourth chapter describes some philosophical thoughts that may guide an individual through different stages of life. The final chapter describes the author's journey through three different continents that led to the writing of the book.

The original meaning of the term "value proposition" has devolved into a vague sales and marketing notion that does not match its intended use. It is often used to mean benefits, a unique selling point, or differentiation and therefore is often regarded as falling under the Sales and Marketing departments within an organization.In this book, Dr. Colm Reilly tackles the misconceptions that surround what a value proposition is and why it is important. He answers the four core business questions which are:1. Why are value propositions needed for a business to be profitable or for a not-for-profit organization to succeed?2. How can organizations build and use value propositions?3. How can an organization use a value proposition to serve both internal and external customers?4. What are the ethical values that should drive an organization in understanding how to create fair and equitable enduring value for themselves and their customers.The book shows how Value propositions are in effect an alignment tool within an organization that manifests the core ethical nature of the business. In a business world where returns appear volatile and business cycles are disruptive, Dr. Reilly proves a guidebook that shows that a core and ethical value proposition in business will always endure and guide an organization to sustained success.

Ever since its creation in 1949, when the United States was already a significant nuclear power, the organization has constantly worked to create conflicts that have been able to enrich its own arms industry. As Johan Galtung put it: "The conflict could have been resolved with a little patience and creativity, but NATO does not want solutions. It uses conflict as raw material it can process into interventions to tell the world that it is the strongest in military terms."The period after 1992 is therefore cluttered with 251 examples of military interventions in various states, from NATO as a whole or from individual member states, with democracy as a pretext. This according to the USA's Congressional Research Service, March 2022. But NATO has never tried to resolve any conflicts - peaceful solutions do not bring any profits to a military power.The latest example of this is the war in Ukraine. From the beginning, there was no conflict between Russia and Ukraine. It must be created by the US with the help of the EU. It was created by these powers, politicized and militarized by various NATO states, and now we are seeing the results. It is important, not least for school youth, students that they get a different version than the mainstream gives of what is happening geopolitically. A version that is not agenda-based but where the ambition is an accurate description of a conflict-filled world. The book: "NATO - an Entity set on Disaster," contributes strongly to providing a fact-based, comprehensive and sustainable picture of what is happening.

An enormous cup and saucer floated down from the sky, and settled in a field alongside the river. It was home to three firm friends.

Human communication involves more than mere linguistic expressions or the verbal messages they share in the interactions. Nonverbal behaviors not only have a critical impact on verbal ones but also may even substitute them. The sociopragmatic context and sociopragmatic competence play a significant role in the processes of using, studying, interpreting, and analyzing nonverbal cues, especially in intercultural communication. There has been some uncertainty as to whether or not nonverbal cues influence intercultural communication, particularly among refugees, in addition to the impact of sociopragmatic contextual variables such as age, gender, ethnicity, and religion on the process of communication. This study's content originates from the diverse culture-based difficulties and challenges refugees face in the communication process among themselves and with the host community or humanitarian agencies. Thus, it recommends cooperating, nationally and internationally, to establish peace and security to reduce the number of refugees and decrease their suffering. Eventually, it suggests holding international, regional, and national scientific conferences to study the temporary and future consequences of refugeeism on humanity.

A few years after the island of Mauritius gained independence from Great Britain, people and cultures collide and navigate life as Shakti, a little girl tries to make sense of the world and find her way.Testimonials Jackee Holder: Author, Coach, Trainer"Thank you dear one for sharing this powerful story with us. I really appreciated the way in which Shakti tells her story. I was totally engaged. The chapters were so readable. I found myself swooning as she shared her mystical experiences in the temple. Shakti has this way of going deep without saying a lot. I noticed this in her collection of autobiographical poems "I: A Woman Speaking Up". This is a powerful testimony of overcoming life's adversity. Shakti explores taboo subjects such as colourism with honesty and grace. This is a story of moving from turbulence to triumph. The shortness of the chapters kept me wanting to keep turning the page. Shakti's voice encourages the reader to reclaim their lives and to frame a new empowered story."Dr Janet Balabanovic: Counselling Psychologist"Shakti bears her soul in this intimate collection of childhood memories. Please Paint Me Caramel delivers a beautifully evocative account of a childhood of relative privilege in Mauritius, a childhood which is richly suffused with vibrant and colourful memories of religious festivals and cultural traditions. Disturbingly, this is uneasily juxtaposed alongside a powerful undercurrent of emotional abuse disguised as love and protection. Suffocating demands and expectations are justified to protect and safeguard the future of a young girl who was born "too dark", "with bad blood" and "in the wrong month". The crushing weight of her family's fears is keenly felt as the little girl grapples with her perceived defects and secretly and repeatedly prays to be painted caramel to secure her place in the world as a marriageable woman in a society that dictates only one path to a good and worthwhile life. A poignant reminder of the devastating impact of parental and culturally-bound conditions of worth on individual self-acceptance."Jane Yeadon, Author, Scotland "This is an important book written from the heart- breakingly honest viewpoint of a child bewildered and marked by tradition and her family's adherence to it. Care, compassion and humour are the colours Shakti brings to her pages. She has brought the characters, traditions, and the emotions of her Mauritian childhood brilliantly to life.

I sat on a mat beneath an imagined mango tree. There, the happiness and sorrows of my heart found a place as stories and poetry on paper. I joined the birds flying above the tree, singing Kiswahili songs that made me ululate. The tree danced from melodies of the heart, gifting ample juicy fruits to sate my longings. Meanwhile, children skipped their favourite kamba game, and others raced on a wooden tricycle to catch a grasshopper. Our neighbour wafted soil scent as she wetted the mud floor before sweeping it. My body adorned in a pair of kanga, the breeze knew well of the nostalgia I carry. It was not a dream. I was homesick, and only writing would remedy my longings.Moving away from the land you were born in alters you into a migrant and a wanderer, seeking what is not fully known until experienced and missed.

You will learn about the wealth and diversity of Tanzania's people, culture, and natural resources. This book is an ode to Tanzania and a subtle memoir by its descendant.*****Gloria writes about Africa in all its brilliance and beauty with a pure vision and a complete lack of cliche. Her formidable control of language brings memories rushing out of the body - with faint smells and tiny sounds - with all the subtleness of real life. Derek Workman, Editor In Chief, The Kalahari ReviewThis book of poems will surely inspire the reader to think about who they are and where they come from, and be proud of their heritage. Even to those for whom poetry is not something they usually indulge in, these writings are meaningful and worth a look. Lee Ann, FirstEditing.com

Without Christ, there is no divine life in any human being, whether male or female. The eternal life God has promised produces a spark that, when fanned by man with help from the Holy Spirit, leads to flame and fire. To be a flaming fire, believers must be devoted to fellowship with the Holy Spirit, maintain a consistent spirit-led prayer life, devour the enemies, and ultimately transform into a light for their generation.Within a unique theological exploration, ordained minister Florence Adewumi intertwines biblical inspiration with personal insights to lead believers on a journey inward to examine their spiritual paths and be of the upmost value wherever they find themselves in life. While encouraging spiritual seekers to reflect on the Word of God and her perceptions, Adewumi invites them to seek the treasure within and deploy it for the benefit of themselves and others through their connection to God.The Flame and the Fire shares scripture and other inspirational reflections that guide believers to attain a greater understanding of what it means to become a flaming fire for Christ.

1937 dawned over the golden sun kissed lands of Spain, upon a divided country and a vicious and bloody Civil War. The war had, originally, begun as a simple military coup, back in mid-July of the previous year. At first it looked as though it would carry the day, but due to the early up-rising in the Spanish protectorate of Morocco, the timing of the revolt on the mainland was thrown into disarray, and due to this certain areas didn't commence their planned revolts at the designated time. In particular, the major cities of Barcelona and Madrid were both critically effected by the timing of these events, and the whole of the 18th July was spent in inactivity. It was this delay, to the originally planned timetable, that enabled the republican government, but more importantly, especially in Barcelona, the unions and other forces on the left, to organise some sort of resistance. It was this fact, which meant that they were able to defeat the rebellion in these, and several other vital towns and cities. By the end of the 20th July, after the first two days of the rebellion, and bitter fighting throughout the length and breadth of the country, the battle lines had been drawn, and Spain was a nation split into two basic zones. The areas that remained loyal, under the control of the government, and the rest of Spain, which was now under the command of the rebel's or nationalist's as they were to become known.

Other than politics, I doubt if any other topics have captured the imagination of the masses more than dieting and exercise. The media is saturated with advice from all and sundry foisting their ideas on the reader. Clearly there is no perfect solution.Why the obsession? Wanting to live longer or better lives, or seeking an antidote to illness such as Alzheimers or a cure for over indulgence? There are many reasons for this quest to improve the quality of life. Yet it seems to be extremely difficult to achieve. I have spent over 50 years as a doctor, learning from life's experiences. There is a way to improve one's life which is available to all but it does take some effort. I show you what worked for me and can work for you too. I have the next ten million years to lie still, now is the time to move!

Aid Evaporation is a new Nortion. It is based on an academic study that comprehensively examined how ODA is governed from the source to the destination. Key ODA parameters emerged from the existing ODA governance frameworks namely; mechanism, ideology, development approach and processes. By unpacking elements contributing to aid ineffectiveness through these parameters, exploring the existence of the aid evaporation and examining the key enablers of ODA Evaporatoon, the study discovered supply side factors contributed significantly to Aid ineffectiveness. It exposed different AID Evaporation enablers which play different hidden functions such as ODA Door Openers, Appetixers, Softeners, Sponges, Convertors, Controllers, Distorters as well as Carrot and Stick among others. Key findings revealed that the prevailing perception that aid ineffectiveness was a demand side problem was only part of the story because supply side challenges were probably more responsible for billions of ODA that could not be accounted for. It has recommended the re-writing of the narrative that ODA ineffectiveness is predominantly premised on demand side by incorporating supply side factors. Findings demonstrated that while there were indeed demand side challenges such as bad governance, corruption and lack of strong institutions, there were also supply (donor) side challenges such as over-reliance of donor's own inefficient ODA governance frameworks as well as ODA delivery mechanisms, the entrenchment of bilateral interest in ODA processess and geo- political interests among other factors. In this regard, the study confirmed that the 62% of the ODA that could not be accounted for according to existing literature was either held up in the pipeline or evaporates mostly from the supply side. This finding brought clarity on the weak impact of ODA and corroborated with existing literature on the mystery of unaccounted ODA. While the notion of aid evaporation emerged as an attribution and part of a reflection on the problem of ODA dissipation at the preliminary stage of the literature review, it became the central issue of focus throughout the research investigation which involved substantive field work to bring clarity on the problem. The study has made theoretical and practical contributions to the existing concepts on ODA governance and proposed a new concept, namely the "Supply Baggage Concept".The new concept should inform the Post Paris era in achieving Aid effectiveness by weding out Evaporation, using the Aid Evaporation Detection Framework proposed in this book.
