This exhibition explores the many celestial realms represented in Tibetan Buddhist painting and sculpture through exquisite examples from the twelfth to nineteenth centuries. The exhibition will be presided over by a monumental gilt bronze sculpture of the historical Buddha, a fully realized and enlightened being who occupies the highest level of existence. The Buddhas life story will be recounted in painting in a masterful thangka from the twelfth century that details his progression from a naïve young prince to an enlightened being. Other objects, including rare mandalas dating back to the fourteenth century, shed light on the cosmology and religious practices of traditional Tibetan Buddhism.
Organized by Senior Curator for Asian Art Julia M White. All works are on extended loan to BAMPFA from a private collection.Campiglia marittima 4506

Falling to fifth on the last restart, Eliason would finish there and turn his attention to Saturday night's finale.
Kicking the Gold Cup Race of Champions finale off by timing in seventh fastest in Time Trials, Eliason would again put himself in the Dash with a second place finish in his heat race.
Finishing third in the Dash, Eliason would make a big time move at the start of the feature event and would take command of the race andset a quick pace that saw him get into traffic in just five laps.
Negotiating thick traffic, a pair of Californians worked their way forward to contest the race lead as Tanner Thorson and Rico Abreu made it an intense three-car battle for the lead in front of a jam packed Californian based crowd.
The trio would exchanging hay makers as they brought the crowd to their feet, but Eliason was able to fend off his challengers as he led the first 24-laps of the race.

Setting a strong pace over Michael Kofoid, traffic would soon come into play and Eliason would see his lead shrink up. Falling to second in traffic on lap 12, a lap 13 caution would put the leaders in clear track.
Continuing to chase after Kofoid, the leaders would get bottled up in traffic on the 18th lap and contact would send Eliason's machine hard into the turn four wall on the 18th lap and it

Dash, Eliason would run second in the six-lap shootout and line up on the pole for the 30-lap feature event.
On a freshly prepared surface for the 'A', Eliason would jump on the throttle when the green lights flashed and take the early lead. Quickly opening up a sizeable lead, Eliason looked very strong out front as he chased after the rear of the field.
Getting into traffic at the race's halfway point, Eliason would see his lead start to evaporate, as he would feel pressure from Kyle Hirst. Though Hirst would get him on the 18th lap, and he would fall back to third, Eliason would stay in a three-car battle for the top spot until the race's lone caution flew on lap 23.
When the race picked back up,opening event at Ocean Speedway aboard the Antaya Motorsports No. 20 machine, Cory Eliason returned to the Santa Cruz County Fairground on Friday night aboard his own No. 00 machine and picked up his second Ocean Sprints Pres. by Taco Bravo win of the season.

Guys Rod and Custom Association/Fuel Curve/Fire Protection Management, Inc. sprinter in eighth fastest in time trials, Eliason would finish second in his heat race and move into the all-important Dash.
With a little lady luck on the team's side, Eliason would find himself on the front row of the front row of the six-lap shootout and by way of the win, he would lead the field to green for the 40-lap Bradway Memorial feature event.
On an extremely rough and tumble Silver Dollar Speedway surface, the feature event would end up being lengthy with several caution flag periods needed for various wrecks.
Running in the third spot after not getting the jump when the race came to life, Eliason would use a restart on the 13th lap to power into thesecond spot and give chase to Rico Abreu.
With the race never getting into a good green flag run, Eliason would hound Abreu on several restarts but would not quite be able to sneak under him. The final restart came on lap 28, and Eliason would have a big run on the leader as they raced into turns one and two.
Getting under Abreu, Eliason would discover he no longer had brakes and fought to keep himself and Abreu from touching as he continued on in second. Battling with DJ Netto in the closing laps, Eliason would do all he could to wrestle his machine around and fend him off, but when the race concluded Eliason fell back to finish third.

night as Cory Eliason used a late race move to pick up the season opening event.
Geoff Ensign and Shane Golobic would lead the field to green for the 30-lap affair, and it would be Ensign taking early command of the race as Golobic, Kurt Nelson, Justin Sanders, and Cory Eliason gave chase on a slick Ocean Speedway surface.
Ensign's quick start would quickly be slowed, as the red flag was needed on the race's second circuit for Kyle Shaw. Shaw would escape from the wreckage, but his night would be finished.
Back underway, Ensign continued to set a torrid pace as the action behind him picked up. As he stretched his lead out on the slick ¼ mile speedway, Eliason would make his way by both Nelson and Sanders totake over third as he pressured Golobic for the runner up spot until the caution flew on the 13th lap.
The Sebastopol, CA driver continued to show the way, as he would get away from Golobic and Eliason, though lapped traffic would soon become a factor as the race got into an extended green flag run.
Behind the leader, Eliason would take over the second spot on the 19th lap, and begin to set his sights on the point. Once in second, Eliason could continue to search around the Ocean Speedway, as he would soon take a liking to the top-side of the speedway and make up ground on the leader.
On lap 25, Eliason would make a bid for the lead in turns one and two, but Ensign would counter

00 entry in fourth quick during qualifications, Eliason would pick up a third place finish in his heat race.
Finishing sixth in the night's Dash, the Kingsburg, CA driver would run in the fifth spot for the first five laps, before he would take advantage of a lap seven caution. On the restart, Eliason would watch Jonathan Allard and Tommy Tarlton fight for the position in front of him before he would get by Allard for the fourth spot on the 11th lap, and get by Tarlton for third a lap later.
Setting his sights on Kyle Hirst and Craig Stidham amidst heavy traffic, the caution flag would fly on lap 16 and give the leaders clear track. Though Eliason would feel pressure from Tarlton, he would keep the position,and take the checkered flag in the third spot.
Returning to the Keller Auto Speedway on Saturday night to battle with the King of the West Series, Eliason would time the Ultra Grown/Advanced Auto and Smog/RE Technologies entry in 14th fastest. Missing the heat race inversion, Eliason would finish in his heat putting him in the seventh row of the 30-lap A Main.
The A Main would get off to an extremely wild start with numerous stoppages preventing the race to get a lap in. Unfortunately one of the yellows would be for Eliason as he spun his machine out in turns one and two, but there would be no damage, and he would be able tag the rear of the field.
When the race finally got going, Eliason would get

he was employed by both AMF Tuboscope and Uni-Mineral on March 26, 1980, the date of disability. He further alleged that he provided proof of the causal connection to work by presenting both carriers with the report of Dr. William Donovan which indicated that Aranda's condition, carpal tunnel syndrome, resulted from his work. Under these facts, INA and Lumbermans were each fully liable to Aranda for compensation benefits. These allegations provide a sufficient factual basis for a claim that neither INA nor Lumbermans had a reasonable basis for refusing to pay Aranda's compensable claim.
Aranda further alleged that the adjusters employed by INA and Lumbermans *214 determined that Aranda's claim was compensable and advised the carriers to pay the claim. He also alleged that the supervisory personnel for eachnot constitute the violation of a common law duty.
The Workers' Compensation Act is by no means perfect, as recent criticisms from representatives of workers, employers, and insurers have made clear. Nonetheless, thousands of claims are resolved under its auspices every year. In this, it serves its primary legislative purposes of assuring certain and timely resolution of claims. In my view, this court's insertion of a common law duty of good faith and fair dealing invites the proliferation of lawsuits and the possibility of double recoveries and inconsistent findings of fact. To permit a tort remedy in addition to the remedies provided by statute betrays the bargain implicit in the Act and necessarily impairs the function of the compensation system.
Therefore, I dissent.

Chance EncounterI met a mix group of tourists in Mapiya-aw, Sagada last Good Friday, and had a short but pleasant conversation with most of them before I joined my group, UP Mountaineers who visited Sagada for the holidays. I remember Julia. She was the first one I talked to in the group. There was live music at the courtyard and the vibe was festive. I saw her again the following day at the municipal hall but didn't get to talk to her. That was the last time I saw her.
MissingWithin the course of the week, word got around that a certain 'Julia', a Peace Corps volunteer who was last seen in Batad went missing. I wasn't able to connect the dots then, but when I went to Banaueto participate in an adventure race the following weekend, flyers were everywhere about the missing tourist. It was only upon seeing the flyer with her picture that I realized it was the same Julia whom I met at Mapiya-aw. I was struck with a heavy feeling but hoped for the best.
Who is Julia? Julia is one of 137 Peace Corps volunteers currently in the Philippines. A Virginia native who had worked in the Philippines for two years and spoke the local language, she had been teaching English at the Divine Word College in Legazpi City, Albay, since October 2006. She previously taught at a public school in Donsol in nearby Sorsogon province. On holidays for the Holy Week, she was last seen in Batad, Easter Sunday.

to HUD approval. After a plan received HUD approval, HUD funded it by allocating accounts on which HACC was authorized to draw to pay invoices. The payments were accomplished through wire transfers of funds from the United States Treasury to HACC's bank account in Pana, Illinois.
From time to time, HUD evaluated the condition of the apartment units that it was subsidizing. In the course of these evaluations, it criticized HACC for failing to keep up with painting its occupied units. Adcock passed this criticism along to Woolard and told her that his staff was too busy to undertake the painting. He recommended that the project should be awarded to an outside contractor, after a bidding process. Woolard agreed to do so.
When HACC opened the bids in March ofby checks signed in the name of Justin Adcock, although she dealt only with defendant Thomas Adcock. Justin was vaguely aware of what was going on. He painted a few units; he opened a bank account in the name of A-1 at his father's request; but otherwise he paid no attention to the company, since he was away at college. Woolard at one point wondered what Justin was doing, because Justin's name appeared on the contract and the insurance certificate. Adcock told her that Justin was just helping out Miller, who could not obtain insurance in her own name.
Adcock personally typed and submitted all of the invoices for A-1's work to HACC. When he submitted an invoice, HACC's bookkeeper first ensured that it was approved, and then took

the faith which the men of Easter Week placed in them, and well may we, in Cumann na mBan today, be proud of our old members who participated in this glorious epoch and who risked their lives in order to help· the soldiers of Easter Week to break the chains of slavery.
Easter Week
Their work was hard and heavy, sleep and rest impossible, food irregular and. insufficient. They nursed and tended the wounded, carried dispatches, arms and ammunition, night and day, through showers of shrapnel, picking their way through broken walls and burning houses, caring less for their own safety than for the war equipment and dispatches they carried for the Volunteers.
On the Friday of Easter Week, the different positions occupied by the Volunteers and by our members werebecoming hourly unsafe and untenable; the buildings around were one mass of red flame which lit up the countryside for miles outside the city. It was eventually decided by the men that some of the women should leave the buildings. This decision brought tears to the eyes of many of the girls who were willing to share the fate of the men.
The Commander-in-Chief, P. H. Pearse, seeing their sorrow and grief, spoke to them in that high-souled and idealistic tone which characterised this soldier of Ireland and raised him above his fellow men during his life service to the cause of Cait Ni Dhuibhir. He briefly thanked them for their great help during the week and said that when the history of that fight would be written the

in throwing dirt and dust of every description on the floors, which Constance de Markievicz scrubbed until the flesh was falling off her hands and the nails torn from her fingers. She was compelled to do the same work, over and over again, by her jailers who amused themselves at her expense.
Care of dependants
Many a time she related to me, when a prisoner in Mountjoy Jail, how the fierce unceasing pangs of hunger compelled her to steal filthy bone, orange skins and potato peels from the rubbish heap, wash and eat them in order to curb the gnawing hunger which was caused by insufficient food.
After the surrender and evacuation of Easter Week, thousands of our men were arrested and deported to English prisons, leaving their dependants in mostcases unprovided for.
Cumann na mBan set to work and collected money for the National Aid so that the dependants of these men should be saved the horrors of starvation, and in order to keep their homes together until they were released from the enemy prisons.
The short space of time between the surrender of Easter Week and the renewal of the war for freedom was utilised by Cumann na mBan to perfect and spread their organisation. In the autumn of 1916, a general meeting was called and it was decided to establish the organisation in every area.
The people of Ireland gradually rose to indignation at the execution of their fellow countrymen and the imprisonment of thousands of non-combatants. Sinn, Féin, the civil wing of the revolutionary movement, spread rapidly.

On October 12, 1957, the dealer sold to the bankrupt a new truck and gave him a bill of sale therefor which showed that there was no lien against the truck. On October 13, the bankrupt executed and delivered to the dealer a promissory note in the sum of $8,921.84, and a chattel mortgage upon the truck to secure payment of the note. The note represented the balance of the purchase price of the truck. On October 17, the dealer delivered the truck to the bankrupt and filed the mortgage of record in Pratt County. The mortgage was in conventional form and provided among other things that the truckUnited States Court for Kansas a voluntary petition in bankruptcy; an order of adjudication was entered; and a trustee was appointed. The dealer filed in the bankruptcy proceeding a petition for reclamation of the truck. The petition was predicated upon the chattel mortgage lien. It was pleaded among other things in the petition that there was a balance due on the note of $8,592.84; that the value of the truck was less than the amount of the secured claim; and that there was no equity, asset, or profit in the truck available to the trustee for the benefit of the estate of the bankrupt.

Life
Sal grew up in Glasgow, Scotland in the run down East End of the city. His father had left when he was two leaving his teenage mother to take care of him on her own. He was a hyper child, full of energy and mischief that often found him on the wrong side of the law. He attended London Road Primary School where his lack of concentration and high energy proved a problem although his teachers commented that if he was tied downto his chair he was actually very bright. He moved on to Whitehill Secondary School at the age of 12 but he'd lost interest in learning and arrogantly believed he knew it all, as most teens do, and left school in 3rd year.
He took a job in a call center for a leading mobile phone provider and worked there for several years. Twenty three now he is trainer and one of the longest serving members with the call center. It was shortly after his twenty third birthday that a job opening arose in Japan, a new call centre being opened and he was offered the task of training the recruits in the Capital Tokyo.
Death

had three jobs: as an assembly line riveter for Chicago Flexible Shaft Co. from 1937 to 1946; as a material cutter for Sears Roebuck in 1952 and 1953; and on an assembly line for Western Electric from 1955 to 1958.5
5
Shortly after starting at Chicago Flexible Shaft, plaintiff's fingers began to trouble her.6 They became ulcerous, increasingly stiff and difficult to manipulate, especially in cold weather. She sought medical advice, but the doctors were unable to diagnose her affliction. Plaintiff's fellow employees assisted her at work, but ultimately the company informed her that she would have to leave because she was physically unable to do her job.7
6
While unemployed between 1946 and 1952, plaintiff did some light housework. But her fingers were irritated by tasks suchas dishwashing, and occasionally her condition would 'flare up.' When plaintiff started to work at Sears, she believed her condition had improved; however, she could work neither continuously nor effectively. She had difficulty grasping scissors and 'worked at a much slower pace than the other girls.' Her illness caused her to leave Sears in 1953.
7
Plaintiff's doctors continued to treat her, but still were unable to determine the cause of her difficulties. Her disconfort increased. When she was upset or exposed to the cold, her feet and hands became numb and pallid. She also developed painful swelling of her fingertips and tightness of the skin on her upper arms and chest. Nevertheless, in 1955 she went to work for Western Electric.

Plaintiff's first assignment screws. However, she was unable to use a screwdriver effectively and was use a screwdriver effectively and was soon transferred. Her next assignment required that she dip her hands, covered by cellophane, into an acetone solution. As a result, plaintiff's fingers were greatly irritated and her condition deteriorated.8 In March of 1957 she entered the University of Illinois Research and Educational Hospital, where her condition was diagnosed as Raynaud's phenomenon.9
8
Plaintiff remained in the employ of Western Electric until January 10, 1958. She was finally discharged because she could not perform the required work satisfactorily. While at Western Electric she had a high absence rate, was in great pain when she worked and received a good deal of assistance fromher co-workers. The administrative law judge concluded that 'her attempts to work resulted from severe economic need.'
9
In 1960 plaintiff reentered the Research and Educational Hospital. Her condition was diagnosed as scleroderma accompanied by Raynaud's phenomenon. Between 1960 and 1971 plaintiff was admitted to the hospital of five separate occasions. She complained of progressive hardening and tenseness of the skin on various parts of her body, difficulty in swallowing, increasing inability to move her fingers and wrist, ankle edema, weight loss, and an asymptomatic mass in her left breast. On some occasions plaintiff would state that certain of these symptoms gave her less trouble than in the past. Nevertheless, her general condition became progressively worse.
10
In 1971 plaintiff was examined and found to be

suffering from scleroderma prior to 1951; therefore, plaintiff failed to prove a 'physical impairment.'
15
Plaintiff was unable to produce the medical records of the three doctors who treated her during the late 1940's and early 1950's. She explained that her records had been destroyed in a flood, that two of the doctors had long since been deceased and that the third doctor could not be located. The administrative law judge himself made an unsuccessful effort to find the records of these doctors. Plaintiff, however, did submit the medical reports of the University of Illinois doctors who treated her after 1957. A 1957 report contains a diagnosis of Raynaud's phenomenon; a 1960 report, scleroderma. She also submitted an affidavit of Dr. Adolph Rostenberg, Jr., who If she established that her impairment was sufficiently severe to prevent her from continuing to work in that capacity on December 31, 1950, she met her burden and it was incumbent upon the Secretary to prove the availability of alternate employment. Since the record in this case is devoid of any such proof by the Secretary, he is necessarily contending that plaintiff's impairment was not sufficiently severe prior to December 31, 1950, to prevent her from working with her hands.
20
The uncontroverted medical, as well as lay, evidence before us clearly refutes such a contention. There is no cure for scleroderma. One medical authority, who was cited by the administrative law judge, concluded:
21
Patients with slowly progressive systemic sclerosis can lead productive and useful lives.

in light of the entire record and not merely to view it 'in isolation.'16 When viewed in this manner the facts upon which the Appeals Council relied are not substantial.

A fair reading of the medical records of the University of Illinois Research and Educational Hospital belies the suggestion that the onset of scleroderma did not occur until 1954. Some of plaintiff's complications were not noticed until 1954,17 but others, such as the ulcerations, which were a primary cause of her disability, clearly were. We have no doubt, as found by Dr. Rostenberg and the administrative law judge, that her scleroderma was present while she was employed at Chicago Flexible prior to 1946.
27
Nor do we regard the admission in plaintiff's application as controlling. In heranswer to the question when she became unable to work because of her disability, she stated: 'Dec. not the first 1958.' This answer is ambiguous because it is not clear whether she meant that December, 1958, was 'not the first' time she became unable to work, or that she could not remember the specific date when she left Western Electric, but it was 'not the first of December.'18 We think the latter interpretation is the more reasonable, but nevertheless do not consider this admission critical. When plaintiff completed the application she knew she had worked at Western Electric in 1958 and, since she was not represented by counsel, was unaware of the earnings requirement that made it necessary for her to establish an earlier disability

not necessarily disqualifying in every case.21 The question is not simply answered by the fact of employment or the extent of her earnings. Rather, the answer turns on whether she was disabled within the meaning of the Act notwithstanding the fact that she actually did work.
29
The uncontroverted evidence demonstrates that plaintiff worked only because she desperately needed the money; was transferred from one department to another because of her condition; needed the assistance of her co-workers to perform; had a high absence rate; worked in great pain; received the criticism of her foreman, and was finally fired, because she could not satisfactorily perform her job without assistance. Of greatest significance is the medical evidence which indicates that, if her condition had been properly diagnosed, shewhen this lasts over a three-year period with the pay of those in the group, also presumably 'bread-earners,' being constantly diminished, it is understandable if the Secretary, in evaluating the evidence, viewed with some skepticism a claim that during the period in question the claimant was unable to engage in substantial gainful activity.
43
The claim of help by the co-workers at Western Electric was supported by the affidavit of one fellow employee of that plant who told of the difficulties experienced by the claimant during her work at the plant. The affidavit states that the claimant had a heavy rate of absence. The claimant's own affidavit states she 'was absent usually at least two half days a week.' The co-worker's affidavit also states, 'I believe that

such as the endearing cantina band, though there is the classic theme song at the beginning of the story. During important story missions and epic fights, there's always a great ambient thanks to the songs composed by a group of various individuals.
Two of the names that stand out the most in the list of credited composers has to be Mark Griskey and Lennie Moore. The former has previously worked with Bioware and LucasArts to bring great scores for other titles like Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II The Sith Lords. As for the latter, this is the first time he has worked with the pair on composing Star Wars scores, though his previous works include Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary and Magicthe Gathering: Duel of the Planeswalkers.
As for the actual sound effects, everything is there too; every attack with the lightsaber has the appropriate sound, and every pull of the trigger on the blaster is met with proper tone. In other words, the sound designers for Star Wars: The Old Republic really seem to have put plenty of effort into make each of the weapons in the game sound like they really were designed in the Star Wars universe. Of course, you could really not expect much less from Lucas himself; he tends to take it upon himself to make sure everything is done right.
The voice acting is one part of sound that tends to be a little iffy. While you do have some of the voice actors whose

Kasijy Reserve
Kasijy Special Reserve is a wildlife reserve in the Betsiboka region of Madagascar. Nearly half of the species of plants and animals recorded within the reserve are endemic to Madagascar and BirdLife International have listed the reserve as an Important Bird Area.
Geography
Kasijy Special Reserve is north-west of Bemonto in the Betsiboka region of Madagascar. Access is difficult because of the poor roads and there is no accommodation or Park Office in the reserve. The nearest accommodation is in the port of Mahajanga, to the north. There are two outcrops of karst, the Kasijy massif and the smaller Analamajera massif; both are covered in forest. Kasijy Special Reserve covers , of which are savannah and tropical rainforest.

After his return to work, he injured his knee, and this injury also required surgery and physical therapy.
Subsequently, the employee suffered yet another back injury in February 1991 while lifting a reel of cable.

RUFC - Ref Watch v Shrewsbury
A married man with two young children Graham stared refereeing at fifteen years of age and reached the National list of assistant referees in 2001 after progressing through the South Midlands and Isthmian Leagues. He was promoted to the List of Panel referees in 2005 and the National List of referees in 2007, the year in which he refereed the Conference Play Off Semi-final between Exeter and Oxford United.
When asked how did you get introduced into refereeing? Graham replied, At the age of 16, two of my team mates from my Sunday side completed the exam so I thought it would be a good idea. Used to referee the juniors in the morning and play in the afternoon. Better way of earning moneythan doing a paper round.
He has taken charge of just 1 previous Rotherham United game, this being the 2-0 defeat at Barnet on Saturday 29th September 2007, in which he booked 4 players including debutant Ryan Cresswell and Liam King from the Millers. Graham was the original choice of Referee for last Tuesdays trip to Exeter City, but was replaced by Graham Scott.
His record this season so far is 14 games, 40 yellows and just 1 red, this was for Wolves, Richard Stearman for a second bookable offence during their 5-2 defeat at Norwich. His latest appointment was Millwall's 3-0 FA Cup 2nd round win at home to Aldershot last Saturday.

longer prosperous, despite the millions of marks in
gratuities that the financial magnates felt obliged to pour into the coffers of
the parties in power before each election in order to secure their cooperation.
For 14 years the well-blinkered conservatives and Christian democrats of the
political center had been feeding at the trough just as greedily as their
adversaries of the left.
Thus, prior to 1933, the Social Democrats had
been generously bribed by Friedrich Flick, a super-capitalist businessman. With
him, as with all his like, it was a matter of carefully studied tactics. After
1945, his son, true to tradition, would continue to offer largess to the
Bundestag Socialists who had their hands out, and, in a roundabout way, to
similarly minded and equally greedy political parties abroad as well. The
benefactors, to be sure, made certain that theirall this shifting
for short-term political advantage were bound to fail.
Nor did the bribing of the political parties
make them any more capable of coping with the exactions ordered by the Treaty of
Versailles. France, in 1923, had effectively seized Germany by the throat with
her occupation of the Ruhr industrial region, and in six months had brought the
Weimar government to pitiable capitulation. But then, disunited, despising one
another, how could these political birds of passage have offered resistance? In
just a few months in 1923, seven German governments came and went in swift
succession. They had no choice but to submit to the humiliation of Allied
control, as well as to the separatist intrigues fomented by Poincarй's paid
agents.
The substantial tariffs imposed on the sale of
German goods abroad had sharply curtailed the nation's ability to export

that time, there can be no doubt. Not a single figure
cited here is invented. By January 1933, Germany was down and bleeding to death.
All the previous chancellors who had
undertaken to get Germany back on her feet - including Brьning, Papen and
Schleicher - had failed. Only a genius or, as some believed, a madman, could
revive a nation that had fallen into such a state of complete disarray.
When President Franklin Roosevelt was called
upon at that same time to resolve a similar crisis in the United States, he had
at his disposal immense reserves of gold. Hitler, standing silently at the
chancellery window on that evening of January 30, 1933, knew that, on the
contrary, his nation's treasury was empty. No great benefactor would appear to
help him out. The elderly Reich President, Paul vonHindenburg, had given him a
work sheet of appalling figures of indebtedness.
Hitler knew that he would be starting from
zero. From less than zero. But he was also confident of his strength of will to
create Germany anew - politically, socially, financially, and economically. Now
legally and officially in power, he was sure that he could quickly convert that
cipher into a Germany more powerful than ever before.
What support did he have?
For one thing, he could count on the absolute
support of millions of fanatical disciples. And on that January evening, they
joyfully shared in the great thrill of victory. Some thirteen million Germans,
many of them former Socialists and Communists, had voted for his party.
But millions of Germans were still his
adversaries, disconcerted adversaries, to be sure, whom their own political
parties had betrayed, but who had

still not been won over to National Socialism.
The two sides - those for and those against
Hitler - were very nearly equal in numbers. But whereas those on the left were
divided among themselves, Hitler's disciples were strongly united. And in one
thing above all, the National Socialists had an incomparable advantage: in their
convictions and in their total faith in a leader. Their highly organized and
well-disciplined party had conted with the worst kind of obstacles, and had
overcome them.
Hitler poses with close comrades shortly after
being named Chancellor on January 30, 1933.
While it enjoyed extraordinarily popular
support, the National Socialist movement had grown too fast, and problems
deriving from that lay in wait ahead. Thousands of visionaries with nebulous
dreams of domination, not to mention hotheads dreaming only of brawls and
revolution in perpetuity, had found theirway into the National Socialist ranks.
The ambitious ones intended to rise to the top at any cost - and as quickly as
possible. Many of them were ill-prepared; some simply lacked morals. Many bitter
disappointments were in store for Hitler because of them.
Hitler sensed as much. He had ordered his
party to halt recruitment of new members, and even directed that the SA - the
huge civilian paramilitary force that had carried him to power - be reduced in
size. Indeed, by 1933 SA stormtroop membership had grown to the incredible
figure of 2,500,000 men, 25 times the size of the regular army, the Reichswehr.
It was due to such pressures that Hitler was
sometimes driven to rash action, contrary to his real desire or intent.
Sometimes this meant expulsions, the use of force or cases of

provided the Left with large amounts
of money, funds that were continually replenished by the contributions of
millions of union members.
Here again, well before the collapse of
party-ridden Weimar Republic, disillusion with the unions had become widespread
among the working masses. They were starving. The hundreds of Socialist and
Communist deputies stood idly by, impotent to provide any meaningful help to the
desperate proletariat.
Their leaders had no proposals to remedy, even
partially, the great distress of the people; no plans for large-scale public
works, no industrial restructuring, no search for markets abroad.
Moreover, they offered no energetic resistance
to the pillaging by foreign countries of the Reich's last financial resources:
this a consequence of the Treaty of Versailles that the German Socialists had
voted to ratify in June of 1919, and which they had never since had the courage
effectively tooppose.
The few palliative modifications that had been
won, wrested with great difficulty from the rapacious Allies, had been achieved
by Gustav Stresemann, the conservative foreign affairs minister. Although he
enjoyed little or no support, even from the politicians, Stresemann fought
stubbornly, in spite of faltering health, to liberate the Reich. Enduring
fainting fits, and with a goiter, growing ever more enormous, knotted around his
neck like a boa constrictor, Stresemann, even as he was dying, was the only
Weimar leader who had seriously attempted to pry away the foreign talons from
the flesh of the German people.
In 1930, 1931 and 1932, German workers had
watched the disaster grow: the number of unemployed rose from two million to
three, to four, to five, then to six million. At the same time, unemployment
benefits fell lower and lower, finally to disappear

of
Berlin's great avenues, had started off towards the airfield to which Hitler had
called together all Germans. All Germany would follow the rally as it was
transmitted nationwide by radio.
By noon hundreds of thousands of workers -
Hitlerites and non-Hitlerites - were massed on the vast field. The demonstrators
observed impeccable order. Hundreds of tables, quickly set up by the Party,
provided the ever-increasing throngs with sandwiches, sausages, and mugs of beer
at cost, to refresh the new arrivals after their march.
Everyone, of course, was standing, and would
remain so for up to fourteen hours.
A fabulous speaker's platform stood out
against the sky, three stories high, flamboyant with huge flags, as impressive
as a naval shipyard. As the hours went by, thousands of prominent figures took
their seats, including many members of the foreign diplomatic corps. By the
closeof the day, a million and a half spectators stretched to the outermost
edges of the immense plain. Soldiers and civilians mingled together. Fanfares
sounded repeatedly. A political meeting no longer, it had become a festival, a
sort of fantastic Bruegelian kermess, where middle-class burghers, generals and
workers all met and fraternized as Germans and as equals.
Night fell and Hitler appeared. His speaker's
rostrum was indeed like the prow of a giant ship. The hundreds of beacons which
had illuminated the great sea of humanity were now extinguished. Suddenly,
Hitler burst forth from the dark, a solitary figure, high in the air, lit by the
dazzling glare of spotlights.
In the dark, a group of determined opponents
could easily have heckled Hitler or otherwise sabotaged the meeting. Perhaps a
third of the onlookers had been Socialists or Communists only

previously. But not a single hostile voice was raised during the entire
ceremony. There was only universal acclamation.
Ceremony is the right word for it. It was an
almost magical rite. Hitler and Goebbels had no equals in the arranging of
dedicatory ceremonies of this sort. First there were popular songs, then great
Wagnerian hymns to grip the audience. Germany has a passion for orchestral
music, and Wagner taps the deepest and most secret vein of the German soul, its
romanticism, its inborn sense of the powerful and the grand.
Meanwhile the hundreds of flags floated above
the rostrum, redeemed from the darkness by arrows of light.
Now Hitler strode to the rostrum. For those
standing at the of the field, his face must have appeared vanishingly small, but
his words flooded instantaneously across the acres of people inhis audience.
A Latin audience would have preferred a voice
less harsh, more delicately expressive. But there was no doubt that Hitler spoke
to the psyche of the German people.
Germans have rarely had the good fortune to
experience the enchantment of the spoken word. In Germany, the tone has always
been set by ponderous speakers, more fond of elephantine pedantry than
oratorical passion. Hitler, as a speaker, was a prodigy, the greatest orator of
his century. He possessed, above all, what the ordinary speaker lacks: a
mysterious ability to project power.
A bit like a medium or sorcerer, he was
seized, even transfixed, as he addressed a crowd. It responded to Hitler's
projection of power, radiating it back, establishing, in the course of myriad
exchanges, a current that both orator and audience gave to and drew from
equally. One had to

plans.
Unlike the other responsible - or
irresponsible - politicians of twentieth-century Europe, Hitler did not believe
that fighting for his country's economic health meant having to impassively
accept one setback after another, stand idly by while industries died, or look
on as millions of unemployed workers tramped the streets.
In those days, the only solution to these
problems that was accepted by politicians and economists in the democracies was
to drastically cut sping, both governmental and private. Belt-tightening was the
agreed-upon remedy.
Thus, Germany's leaders prior to Hitler had
cut salaries by 25 percent, limited payment of unemployment benefits to six
months, and reduced total private investment by five sixths. The country's
standard of living had collapsed like a deflated balloon. At the end of six
months the unemployed obviously had not found new jobs. To the contrary, they
were joined bylong lines of new unemployed. Deprived of all means of
subsistence, they gravitated to the welfare offices.
People spent less and less, with the
inevitable consequence that industries producing consumer goods closed their
doors, one after another, for lack of orders, thereby sending thousands more
unemployed into the streets. In 1932, Germany's industries were languishing,
their production reduced by half.
Yearly private investment had fallen from
three billion marks to barely 500 million. No new blood had been injected into
the industrial system, no workplaces modernized. The economy stagnated.
The government not only lacked any new
initiatives, it was almost bankrupt. Fiscal receipts had fallen to ten billion
marks, of which the meager and short-term unemployment benefits alone absorbed
two thirds.
Germany couldn't wait for a business upswing
to get the economy moving again. As Hitler had long understood, the government
had to bring

construction of comfortable inns
along the new highway network.
It took several years for a stable social
structure to emerge from the French Revolution. The Soviets needed even more
time: five years after the Bolshevik revolution of 1917, hundreds of thousands
of Russians were still dying of hunger and disease. In Germany, by contrast, the
great machinery was in motion within months, with organization and
accomplishment quickly meshing together.
The single task of constructing a national
highway system that was without parallel in the world might have occupied a
government for years. First, the problem had to be studied and assessed. Then,
with due consideration for the needs of the population and the economy, the
highway system had to be carefully planned it all its particulars.
As usual, Hitler had been remarkably
farsighted. The concrete highways would be 24 meters in width.from gasoline.
Germany was thus building for herself not only
a vast highway network, but an avenue to economic prosperity.
These greatly expanded transport facilities
encouraged the development of hundreds of new business enterprises along the new
expressways. By eliminating congestion on secondary roads, the new highways
stimulated travel by hundreds of thousands of tourists, and with it increased
tourism commerce.
Even the wages paid out to the men who built
the Reichsautobahn network brought considerable indirect benefits. First, they
allowed a drastic cut in payments of unemployment benefits, or 25 percent of the
total paid in wages. Second, the many workers employed in constructing the
expressways - 100,000, and later 150,000 - spent much of the additional 75
percent, which in turn generated increased tax revenues.
Imagine the problems, even before the first
road was opened for traffic, posed by the mobilization

of so many tens of
thousands set to work in often uninhabited regions, in marshy areas, or in the
shadows of Alpine peaks! It's hard enough for 150,000 men to leave their homes
and camp out in often rough terrain. But in addition, it was necessary, from the
outset, to insure tolerable living conditions for the columns of men who had
agreed to work by the sweat of their brows under the open sky.
In France, it was all but unthinkable in those
days for a man out of work to move even 20 kilometers away to search for a new
job. He was practically glued to his native village, his garden, and the corner
cafe. The Germans were fundamentally no different, but by 1933 they were fed up
with their enforced idleness. By pouring concrete, using apick, or whatever it
took, this hard-pressed people would bring dignity back in their lives.
No one balked at the inconvenience, the
absence from home, or the long journey. The will to live a productive and
meaningful life outweighed all other considerations.
To keep up the worker's morale and spirit,
lest he feel isolated or that he was merely being exploited, no effort was
spared to provide material comfort, entertainment and instruction. The world had
never before seen its like in any great construction project. At last, workers
felt they were being treated like respected human beings who had bodies to be
satisfied, hearts to be comforted, and brains to be enlightened.
Camp sites, supply bases, and recreation
facilities were systematically set up, with everything moving forward
methodically as the construction advanced. Fourteen mobile crews that provided
motion picture entertainment traveled along,

was
only one feature of a revolution that soon dramatically improved the living
standards of the Reich's rural population.
The great work of national construction rolled
along. An additional 100,000 workers quickly found employment in repairing the
nation's secondary roads. Many more were hired to work on canals, dams, drainage
and irrigation projects, helping to make fertile some of nation's most barren
regions.
Everywhere industry was hiring again, with
some firms - like Krupp, IG Farben and the large automobile manufacturers -
taking on new workers on a very large scale. As the country became more
prosperous, car sales increased by more than 80,000 units in 1933 alone.
Employment in the auto industry doubled. Germany was gearing up for full
production, with private industry leading the way.
The new government lavished every assistance
on the private sector, the chief factor in employment aswell as production.
Hitler almost immediately made available 500 million marks in credits to private
business.
This start-up assistance given to German
industry would repay itself many times over. Soon enough, another two billion
marks would be loaned to the most enterprising companies. Nearly half would go
into new wages and salaries, saving the treasury an estimated three hundred
million marks in unemployment benefits. Added to the hundreds of millions in tax
receipts spurred by the business recovery, the state quickly recovered its
investment, and more.
Hitler's entire economic policy would be based
on the following equation: risk large sums to undertake great public works and
to spur the renewal and modernization of industry, then later recover the
billions invested through invisible and painless tax revenues. It didn't take
long for Germany to see the results of Hitler's recovery formula.

thus the workers as well.
By the of 1932, in any case, the discredited
labor unions were drowning in massive debt that realistically could never be
repaid. Some of the less scrupulous union officials, sensing the oncoming
catastrophe, had begun stealing hundreds of thousands of marks from the workers
they represented. The Marxist leaders had failed: socially, financially and
morally.
Every joint human activity requires a leader.
The head of a factory or business is also the person naturally responsible for
it. He oversees every aspect of production and work. In Hitler's Germany, the
head of a business had to be both a capable director and a person concerned for
the social justice and welfare of his employees. Under Hitler, many owners and
managers who had proven to be unjust, incompetent or recalcitrant lost their
jobs, or their businesses.
A considerable numbervying to outdo the others in efficiency and justice.
One of the first reforms to benefit German
workers was the establishment of paid vacations. In France, the leftist Popular
Front government would noisily claim, in 1936, to have originated legally
mandated paid vacations - and stingy ones at that, only one week per year. But
it was actually Hitler who first established them, in 1933 - and they were two
or three times more generous.
Under Hitler, every factory employee had the
legal right to paid vacation. Previously, paid vacations had not normally exceed
four or five days, and nearly half of the younger workers had no vacation time
at all. If anything, Hitler favored younger workers; the youngest workers
received more generous vacations. This was humane and made sense: a young person
has more need of rest and fresh

their cooperation.
For 14 years the well-blinkered conservatives and Christian democrats of the
political center had been feeding at the trough just as greedily as their
adversaries of the left.
Thus, prior to 1933, the Social Democrats had
been generously bribed by Friedrich Flick, a super-capitalist businessman. With
him, as with all his like, it was a matter of carefully studied tactics. After
1945, his son, true to tradition, would continue to offer largess to the
Bundestag Socialists who had their hands out, and, in a roundabout way, to
similarly minded and equally greedy political parties abroad as well. The
benefactors, to be sure, made certain that their gifts bore fruit in lucrative
contracts and in cancelled fiscal obligations.
Nothing is given for nothing. In politics,
manacles are imposed in the form of money.
Even though they had thus assured themselves
of theof
Versailles. France, in 1923, had effectively seized Germany by the throat with
her occupation of the Ruhr industrial region, and in six months had brought the
Weimar government to pitiable capitulation. But then, disunited, despising one
another, how could these political birds of passage have offered resistance? In
just a few months in 1923, seven German governments came and went in swift
succession. They had no choice but to submit to the humiliation of Allied
control, as well as to the separatist intrigues fomented by Poincarй's paid
agents.
The substantial tariffs imposed on the sale of
German goods abroad had sharply curtailed the nation's ability to export her
products. Under obligation to pay gigantic sums to their conquerors, the Germans
had paid out billions upon billions. Then, bled dry, they were forced to seek
recourse to enormous loans from abroad,

of will to
create Germany anew - politically, socially, financially, and economically. Now
legally and officially in power, he was sure that he could quickly convert that
cipher into a Germany more powerful than ever before.
What support did he have?
For one thing, he could count on the absolute
support of millions of fanatical disciples. And on that January evening, they
joyfully shared in the great thrill of victory. Some thirteen million Germans,
many of them former Socialists and Communists, had voted for his party.
But millions of Germans were still his
adversaries, disconcerted adversaries, to be sure, whom their own political
parties had betrayed, but who had still not been won over to National Socialism.
The two sides - those for and those against
Hitler - were very nearly equal in numbers. But whereas those on the left were
dividedamong themselves, Hitler's disciples were strongly united. And in one
thing above all, the National Socialists had an incomparable advantage: in their
convictions and in their total faith in a leader. Their highly organized and
well-disciplined party had conted with the worst kind of obstacles, and had
overcome them.
Hitler poses with close comrades shortly after
being named Chancellor on January 30, 1933.
While it enjoyed extraordinarily popular
support, the National Socialist movement had grown too fast, and problems
deriving from that lay in wait ahead. Thousands of visionaries with nebulous
dreams of domination, not to mention hotheads dreaming only of brawls and
revolution in perpetuity, had found their way into the National Socialist ranks.
The ambitious ones intended to rise to the top at any cost - and as quickly as
possible. Many of them were ill-prepared; some simply lacked

|
morals. Many bitter
disappointments were in store for Hitler because of them.
Hitler sensed as much. He had ordered his
party to halt recruitment of new members, and even directed that the SA - the
huge civilian paramilitary force that had carried him to power - be reduced in
size. Indeed, by 1933 SA stormtroop membership had grown to the incredible
figure of 2,500,000 men, 25 times the size of the regular army, the Reichswehr.
It was due to such pressures that Hitler was
sometimes driven to rash action, contrary to his real desire or intent.
Sometimes this meant expulsions, the use of force or cases of intransigence,
even though his larger goal was to reunite the nation in peace, and accomplish
his political and social programs without useless clashes.
Hitler knew that he was playing with dynamite.
Still, it washis conviction that he was being driven not just by his National
Socialist movement, but by an inner, almost supernatural force. Whether one
called it Providence or Destiny, it was this force, he felt, that had carried
him to victory. His own force of character was such that it would yield to
nothing. For Hitler, it was a foregone conclusion that he would forge a new
Reich, a new world.
Hitler knew that the task he had set himself
would be immense and difficult to accomplish, that he would have to transform
Germany in practically every respect: the structure of the state, social law,
the constitution of society, the economy, civic spirit, culture, the very nature
of men's thinking. To accomplish his great goal, he would need to reestablish
the equilibrium of the social classes within the context of

support, even from the politicians, Stresemann fought
stubbornly, in spite of faltering health, to liberate the Reich. Enduring
fainting fits, and with a goiter, growing ever more enormous, knotted around his
neck like a boa constrictor, Stresemann, even as he was dying, was the only
Weimar leader who had seriously attempted to pry away the foreign talons from
the flesh of the German people.
In 1930, 1931 and 1932, German workers had
watched the disaster grow: the number of unemployed rose from two million to
three, to four, to five, then to six million. At the same time, unemployment
benefits fell lower and lower, finally to disappear completely. Everywhere one
saw dejection and privation: emaciated mothers, children wasting away in sordid
lodgings, and thousands of beggars in long sad lines.
The failure, or incapacity, of the leftist
leaders to act, notto mention their insensitivity, had stupefied the working
class. Of what use were such leaders with their empty heads and empty hearts -
and, often enough, full pockets?
Well before January 30, thousands of workers
had already joined up with Hitler's dynamic formations, which were always hard
at it where they were most needed. Many joined the National Socialists when they
went on strike. Hitler, himself a former worker and a plain man like themselves,
was determined to eliminate unemployment root and branch. He wanted not merely
to defend the laborer's right to work, but to make his calling one of honor, to
insure him respect and to integrate him fully into a living community of all the
Germans, who had been divided class against class.
In January 1933, Hitler's victorious troops
were already largely proletarian in character, including numerous

Tempelhof airfield in Berlin. Caught unprepared, but on
the whole very pleased to take advantage of the situation by throwing in their
lot with National Socialism and, what is more, to take part in a mass
demonstration the like of which even Marxist workers could scarcely imagine, the
union leadership called upon their leftist rank and file to join, with banners
flying, the mass meetings held that May Day across Germany, and to acclaim
Hitler.
I myself attended the memorable meeting at the
Tempelhof field in 1933. By nine o'clock that morning, giant columns, some of
workers, others of youth groups, marching in cadence down the pavement of
Berlin's great avenues, had started off towards the airfield to which Hitler had
called together all Germans. All Germany would follow the rally as it was
transmitted nationwide by radio.
By noon hundredsof thousands of workers -
Hitlerites and non-Hitlerites - were massed on the vast field. The demonstrators
observed impeccable order. Hundreds of tables, quickly set up by the Party,
provided the ever-increasing throngs with sandwiches, sausages, and mugs of beer
at cost, to refresh the new arrivals after their march.
Everyone, of course, was standing, and would
remain so for up to fourteen hours.
A fabulous speaker's platform stood out
against the sky, three stories high, flamboyant with huge flags, as impressive
as a naval shipyard. As the hours went by, thousands of prominent figures took
their seats, including many members of the foreign diplomatic corps. By the
close of the day, a million and a half spectators stretched to the outermost
edges of the immense plain. Soldiers and civilians mingled together. Fanfares
sounded repeatedly. A political meeting no longer, it

|
had become a festival, a
sort of fantastic Bruegelian kermess, where middle-class burghers, generals and
workers all met and fraternized as Germans and as equals.
Night fell and Hitler appeared. His speaker's
rostrum was indeed like the prow of a giant ship. The hundreds of beacons which
had illuminated the great sea of humanity were now extinguished. Suddenly,
Hitler burst forth from the dark, a solitary figure, high in the air, lit by the
dazzling glare of spotlights.
In the dark, a group of determined opponents
could easily have heckled Hitler or otherwise sabotaged the meeting. Perhaps a
third of the onlookers had been Socialists or Communists only three months
previously. But not a single hostile voice was raised during the entire
ceremony. There was only universal acclamation.
Ceremony is the right word for it. It was an
almost magical rite. Hitlerand Goebbels had no equals in the arranging of
dedicatory ceremonies of this sort. First there were popular songs, then great
Wagnerian hymns to grip the audience. Germany has a passion for orchestral
music, and Wagner taps the deepest and most secret vein of the German soul, its
romanticism, its inborn sense of the powerful and the grand.
Meanwhile the hundreds of flags floated above
the rostrum, redeemed from the darkness by arrows of light.
Now Hitler strode to the rostrum. For those
standing at the of the field, his face must have appeared vanishingly small, but
his words flooded instantaneously across the acres of people in his audience.
A Latin audience would have preferred a voice
less harsh, more delicately expressive. But there was no doubt that Hitler spoke
to the psyche of the German people.
Germans have rarely had

|
the good fortune to
experience the enchantment of the spoken word. In Germany, the tone has always
been set by ponderous speakers, more fond of elephantine pedantry than
oratorical passion. Hitler, as a speaker, was a prodigy, the greatest orator of
his century. He possessed, above all, what the ordinary speaker lacks: a
mysterious ability to project power.
A bit like a medium or sorcerer, he was
seized, even transfixed, as he addressed a crowd. It responded to Hitler's
projection of power, radiating it back, establishing, in the course of myriad
exchanges, a current that both orator and audience gave to and drew from
equally. One had to personally experience him speaking to understand this
phenomenon.
This special gift is what lay at the basis of
Hitler's ability to win over the masses. His high-voltage, lightning-like
projection transported and transformed all whomeeting had come off as smoothly clockwork.
The memory of that fabulous crowd thronging
back to the center of Berlin will never leave me. A great many were on foot.
Their faces were now different faces, as though they had been imbued with a
strange and totally new spirit. The non-Germans in the crowd were as if stunned,
and no less impressed than Hitler's fellow countrymen.
The French ambassador, Andrй Franзois-Poncet,
noted:
The foreigners on the speaker's platform as
guests of honor were not alone in carrying away the impression of a truly
beautiful and wonderful public festival, an impression that was created by the
regime's genius for organization, by the night time display of uniforms, by the
play of lights, the rhythm of the music, by the flags and the colorful
fireworks; and they were not alone in thinking that

for Hitler to give him every possibility to rise as
high as he could. Within weeks of taking power, Hitler appointed him President
of the Reichsbank, and then, a year later, as Economics Minister as well.
Schacht couldn't be happier.
Dangerous? Of course! Doubly so, inasmuch as
Schacht was a capitalist to the core, with close ties to major foreign banking
interests, not excluding Jewish financiers in London and New York. Moreover,
Schacht cared little for Hitler's revolutionary program, which regarded labor as
the true source of national wealth.
Hitler called on the brilliant Dr. Schacht to
devise new ways of acquiring the funds necessary for what he inted to
accomplish. That was a great deal, but it was all. The collaboration went no
further: Schacht was never permitted to intervene in political matters. When
Schacht's financial formulas had served theirpurpose, the collaboration would.
Until he was dismissed as Reichsbank president in 1939, Hitler made good use of
his extraordinary talents. But Schacht never forgave his dismissal, and would
nurse a seething resentment.
Determined to conjure up billions of marks as
quickly as possible, and by any means available, in early February 1933 Hitler
summoned Schacht's predecessor as Reichsbank president, Dr. Hans Luther, to his
office. Luther, who had been appointed to his post in 1930 by a previous
administration, had old-fashioned views of extreme prudence in the management of
state funds. Since the state's coffers were nearly empty, he was all the more
prudent. His detachable collar, stiff as a calling card, proclaimed the rigidity
of his principles. He belonged to the old school of accountants who spend a
dollar only when they have a dollar.
Hitler was well aware

unemployed who had been living in misery for years; restructuring
industrial life; conceiving and establishing an organization for the effective
defense and betterment of the nation's millions of wage earners; creating a new
bureaucracy and judicial system that guaranteed the civic rights of each member
of the national community, while simultaneously holding each person to his or
her responsibilities as a German citizen: this organic body of reforms was part
of a single, comprehensive plan, which Hitler had conceived and worked out years
earlier.
Without this plan, the nation would have
collapsed into anarchy. All-encompassing, this program included broad industrial
recovery as well as detailed attention to even construction of comfortable inns
along the new highway network.
It took several years for a stable social
structure to emerge from the French Revolution. The Soviets needed even more
time: five years after theBolshevik revolution of 1917, hundreds of thousands
of Russians were still dying of hunger and disease. In Germany, by contrast, the
great machinery was in motion within months, with organization and
accomplishment quickly meshing together.
The single task of constructing a national
highway system that was without parallel in the world might have occupied a
government for years. First, the problem had to be studied and assessed. Then,
with due consideration for the needs of the population and the economy, the
highway system had to be carefully planned it all its particulars.
As usual, Hitler had been remarkably
farsighted. The concrete highways would be 24 meters in width. They would be
spanned by hundreds of bridges and overpasses. To make sure that the entire
Autobahn network would be in harmony with the landscape, a great deal of natural
rock would be
|
{
"pile_set_name": [

]
}
| 13,792,829
|
utilized. The artistically planned roadways would come together
and diverge as if they were large-scale works of art. The necessary service
stations and motor inns would be thoughtfully integrated into the overall
scheme, each facility built in harmony with the local landscape and
architectural style.
The original plan called for 7,000 kilometers
of roadway. This projection would later be increased to 10,000, and then, after
Austria was reunited with Germany, to 11,000 kilometers.
The financial boldness equalled the technical
vision. These expressways were toll free, which seemed foolhardy to conservative
financiers. But the savings in time and labor, and the dramatic increase in
traffic, brought increased tax revenues, notably from gasoline.
Germany was thus building for herself not only
a vast highway network, but an avenue to economic prosperity.
These greatly expanded transport facilities
encouraged the development of hundreds of new business enterprisesalong the new
expressways. By eliminating congestion on secondary roads, the new highways
stimulated travel by hundreds of thousands of tourists, and with it increased
tourism commerce.
Even the wages paid out to the men who built
the Reichsautobahn network brought considerable indirect benefits. First, they
allowed a drastic cut in payments of unemployment benefits, or 25 percent of the
total paid in wages. Second, the many workers employed in constructing the
expressways - 100,000, and later 150,000 - spent much of the additional 75
percent, which in turn generated increased tax revenues.
Imagine the problems, even before the first
road was opened for traffic, posed by the mobilization of so many tens of
thousands set to work in often uninhabited regions, in marshy areas, or in the
shadows of Alpine peaks! It's hard enough for 150,000 men to leave their

and camp out in often rough terrain. But in addition, it was necessary, from the

felt they were being treated like respected human beings who had bodies to be
satisfied, hearts to be comforted, and brains to be enlightened.
Camp sites, supply bases, and recreation
facilities were systematically set up, with everything moving forward
methodically as the construction advanced. Fourteen mobile crews that provided
motion picture entertainment traveled along, moving from one construction site
to the next. And always and everywhere, labor was honored and celebrated.
Hitler personally dug the first spadeful of
earth for the first Autobahn highway, linking Frankfurt-am-Main with

|
been. A month's rent for a worker could not exceed 26 marks, or
about an eighth of the average wage then. Employees with more substantial
salaries paid monthly rents of up to 45 marks maximum.
Equally effective social measures were taken
in behalf of farmers, who had the lowest incomes. In 1933 alone 17,611 new farm
houses were built, each of them surrounded by a parcel of land one thousand
square meters in size. Within three years, Hitler would build 91,000 such
farmhouses. The rental for such dwellings could not legally exceed a modest
share of the farmer's income. This unprecedented owment of land and housing was
only one feature of a revolution that soon dramatically improved the living
standards of the Reich's rural population.
The great work of national construction rolled

Economic recovery, as important as it was,
nevertheless wasn't Hitler's only objective. As he strived to restore full
employment, Hitler never lost sight of his goal of creating a organization

Lulea Airport started back in 1941 as a military airfield but was soon opened for civilian use in 1944. Over the decades since, it has served the area well and grown quite a bit through numerous expansion and renovation projects that have kept the airport modernized. The constant growth the airport saw over its time has led it to its current position as the sixth busiest airport in Sweden.
In fact, the airport serves as the busiest in northern Sweden with more than one million passengers being served each year. Nearly three-quarters of a hundred thousand passengers that land on the single eleven thousand foot runway each year are international travelers, making the airport one of the primary hubs for international travel to the country. Speaking of the runway,Police are now searching for the monk after the incident was reported to them
A skulking Thai Buddhist monk was banished from his temple after being caught on CCTV stealing women's wet knickers.
In the footage recorded on Monday the shaven-headed priest is seen skulking down an alleyway in Suphaburi, Thailand.
CCTV filmed the monk, Theeraphap Worradilok, 49, slipping six pairs of drying underwear into his blue shoulder bag before scurrying away.
Homeowner Kittisak Khajornnetikhun, 40, discovered his wife and daughter's underwear was missing later that evening.
When he checked the CCTV footage he was astounded to find the missing pants had been snatched by a holy man.
He called the police who have now launched a manhunt for the shamed monk after his temple's spiritual leader defrocked and banished him.

at the end of the plaintiff's case and again after it had formally rested its case.
The decedent was born June 15, 1932 and was 18 years, 7 months and 3 weeks of age at the date of her death. She lived at home with her parents. She was a normal, active, healthy, popular, friendly young lady, well liked by both boys and girls.
At the date of decedent's death her father, the plaintiff, was 57 years of age and her mother was 53 years of age.

Some of the testimony elicited in these depositions was detrimental to Carrier's position that it was merely a broker in the subject transaction, and that it, therefore, was not liable for any damages resulting from the August 18, 1988, accident.
On September 18, 1989, a letter written by Hall and signed by Hall and McDaniel was sent to Home summarizing the deposition testimony of Daniels, Siegel, and three other persons. It also gave a brief summary of Mundinger's testimony. The synopsis of Mundinger's testimony was that Mundinger would not testify that Carrier Express was not the carrier with respect to the load of steel involved in the accident. The letter states in part that:
We are preparing our motion for summary judgment in an attempt to get out of thison August 31, 1990.
On June 25, 1990, with input from O'Malley, Walt Morrissey drafted a letter to Home requesting that Home tender the policy limits to the plaintiffs. O'Malley, after consulting with Carrier's president, Carl Eckenrode, had by that time asked Morrissey to work on behalf of Carrier in its efforts to settle the underlying litigation. The letter was on Carrier letterhead and was signed by Eckenrode. *1470 Plaintiff's exhibit 29. A copy was sent to Jack Hall, Jr. Home responded on July 2, 1990, saying that on the advice of counsel it did not wish to enter into settlement negotiations at that time. Home further stated that on the advice of counsel it would wait for the court's decision on Carrier's summary judgment motion prior to deciding

Sheffield Wednesday caretaker manager Lee Bullen says he would like to recall striker Sam Winnall from his loan at Derby County .
Winnall is on a season-long stay with the Rams, having joined the club on transfer deadline day at the end of August in a deal which saw midfielder Jacob Butterfield move in the opposite direction.
Since then, Wednesday have sacked boss Carlos Carvalhal, leaving Bullen in temporary charge.
The Owls have been struggling of late, losing five of their past six games, most recently a 3-0 home defeat to Burton Albion on New Year's Day.
Speaking after the Burton loss, Bullen toldwanted to recall Martin from his loan at Fulham a year ago but the London club did not agree to this and he remained at Craven Cottage.
Winnall has scored six goals in 13 appearances for Derby so far, including a brace in the 2-1 win at Ipswich Town on Saturday.
He has only started five times and was back on the bench for the 1-1 draw with Sheffield United on New Year's Day.
Speaking after the Ipswich game, the 26-year-old admitted he had been frustrated by his lack of game time .

Instrument panels, alternately referred to as dashboards, are situated within a passenger compartment of a vehicle and positioned facing the vehicle occupants, primarily a driver/operator, for easy readability and accessibility of the various instruments housed within the instrument panel. Common instrumentation found in a vehicle passenger compartment includes, for example, speedometers, odometers, tachometers, fuel gauges, and indicator lamps. An instrument panel may also house such other non-metering devices as air bags, glove compartments or boxes, radios, CD/DVD/cassette players, navigation screens, clocks, ashtrays, speakers, climate controls, and air vents. Instrument panels are typically formed with protective padding and other external trim material which is contoured and styled to provide a fully-assembled instrument panel with an aesthetically-pleasing appearance.

Prostate cancer is the most common cause of non-cutaneous cancer in men and is a leading lethal malignancy with increasing incidence worldwide. The mortality rate of prostate cancer is decreasing steadily at approximately 4% yearly since 1994, while the incidence rate increases at slightly less than 2% yearly. Prostate cancer continues to have the highest incidence rate and the second highest mortality rate of any cancer for men in the US. In 2004 there were more than 230,000 new cases of prostate cancer in the US and 29,000 men died of the disease. As a group, cancer represents the second leading cause of death in men and considered alone, prostate cancer is in the top 10 overall causes of death for US men.

Orville and Wilbur Wright grew up in Dayton, Ohio, and developed an interest in aviation after learning of the glider flights of the German engineer Otto Lilienthal in the 1890s. Unlike their older brothers, Orville and Wilbur did not attend college, but they possessed extraordinary technical ability and a sophisticated approach to solving problems in mechanical design. They built printing presses and in 1892 opened a bicycle sales and repair shop. Soon, they were building their own bicycles, and this experience, combined with profits from their various businesses,

Michelle testified about what her day as the care-giver for these children was like. It starts at 5:30 a.m., ironing clothes and preparing lunches, making breakfast, and dressing and grooming the boys. At 7:30 a.m., she drives Ryan and Matthew to school and returns to pick them up in the early afternoon. In the interim, she does grocery shopping, cleans house, handles lawn care and runs errands, including taking the children to doctor's appointments. In the afternoon, she brings the boys home and gives them a snack. They may go swimming or play. She testified she cannot leave Ryan alone for extended periods of time and does not permit him to play outside alone.
*508 In thelate afternoon, she helps them with homework, prepares dinner and gets them ready for bed. She also picks up Lindsey some afternoons when Lindsey participates in after-school activities, such as the band, and cannot come home on the school bus. The children also want to participate in extra-curricular activities such as gymnastics, Karate, and piano lessons, which will require Michelle's supervision and transportation. They have enjoyed such activities in the past, but Michelle testified she would need extra financial support to pay for them.
Michelle testified that if she had to work, even part time, she would have to hire a nanny to handle the child care-taking and homemaking activities she performs. She investigated the cost of hiring such a person with a professional employment association and was told

Collier's claim of juror misconduct is similarly subject to dismissal under Sanders. It is noted that the previous claim of juror misconduct was based on an allegation of improper contact between a juror and the victim and her family; the second claim was based on an allegation that the juror was the victim's uncle. Nonetheless, the allegation does not present a new and different claim to escape dismissal of the petition as successive. The same claim may be based on different factualallegations or different legal arguments. Sanders, 373 U.S. at 16.

Collier's remaining claims also were subject to dismissal for his failure to show cause for and actual prejudice from his failure to raise them in the first petition.

the politics of infiltration or elimination. Zimbabwe would have paid a dear
price if Morgan Tsvangirai had not stood firm to unify the people's party.
MDC saved Zimbabwe from total collapse even
though the trauma and scars of the Mugabe tragedy remain indelibly visible
economically, socially and politically. If Mugabe had vanished when the people
resoundingly rejected him a long time ago, Zimbabwe would never have suffered
such crises. A sustained campaign of violence powered by an everlasting supply
of recruits breathed life into the dictatorship. It's almost as if unemployment
was deliberately designed to create a reservoir of militias, both young and old.
The long suffering people still voted him out even as militias were pointing
guns to their heads.
Recently, things got very interesting when
Mutambara and Moyo, the 'nutty' professors , who both fumbled their way into
Zimbabwe'spolitics were at each other's throat. Somewhere, their godfather
Mugabe, must have been laughing. Only Mugabe can resurrect Mutambara from
current opprobrium and well-deserved withering of his ill-gotten political
fortunes.
Mutambara's ineptness does not appear to be the
only motivation for his MP's discontent. He remains a self-deluding neophyte who
exudes political incompetence and immaturity. Even the unstable Job Sikhala, in
spite of his volcanic temperament and crazy boisterousness, still scores more
political points than Mutambara. How Mutambara is handling the ongoing crisis in
his party amplifies poor leadership and political naivete. Maybe its time
Mutambara rents some thinkers who know political strategy.
By-elections are likely going to be held soon for
his three deposed MP's and in many other constituencies. But it is a fait
accompli that the seats will go to the original MDC as long as the elections

earlier detailed, show that he was vested with and exercised significant governmental responsibility on behalf of the school district in his sole operation of the athletic department. As head football coach, Johnson filled a position of such importance that the public not only had, but exhibited, an independent interest in his qualifications and performance, transcending any interest shown in other employees of the school system.
Although Shamrock High School's enrollment of approximately 130 students was not large, Johnson acknowledged that high school football is one of the major things the people look forward to, being something in which they are keenly interested and which is extremely important to them. He also acknowledged that as a coach, he felt a lot of pressure for his teams to succeed.
Prior to acceptinghis position with the Shamrock school system, Johnson had been the head football coach at Phillips High School, and many newspaper stories were published about him and his teams, together with pictures of him and statements attributed to him. During Johnson's tenure at Shamrock, a nearby radio station broadcast the school's football games. Stories concerning him and the football program appeared in the Amarillo newspapers, in the Pampa newspaper, in the Dallas Morning News, and in the Shamrock Texan, the local newspaper which covered the program. In connection with the stories printed in the Panhandle newspapers, his comments were often quoted, sometimes at length, and pictures of him frequently appeared. Indeed, Johnson volunteered that he was as well known as anybody in the Panhandle.
In brief, the record affirmatively

author of the article, stated he believed its contents were factually correct; he did not include anything he believed, or even suspected, was false; the factual statements were based on reliable, identified sources; and he based his opinions on those facts. Beilue, who edited the article, said he believed its contents to be factually correct and he did not notice anything in the article which he believed, or suspected, to be false. Stevens echoed the statements in Beilue's affidavit. All three newspapermen disclaimed a personal acquaintance with Ed Johnson, and denied any ill will toward him and his family. Before the court also was Ed Johnson's affidavit in which he stated he had no *188 reason at all to think that Lexa had any vendetta or ill willinstilling character, sportsmanship and a sense of fair play in their players, no matter what sport.
If coaches can't help athletes mature, to show them the proper way to act in the public forum, then they should get out of the business.
When football players act like a bunch of thugs, like a street gang from Los Angeles instead of good ol' country boys from the Panhandle, then drastic measures need to be taken.
Concerning Shamrock's high school football program, there's only one conclusion to draw after the last two seasons: Shamrock football coach and athletic director Ed *189 Johnson turns his back on wrongdoings and is slow in correcting them.

Park's Dwain Yorkwent on record complaining about the Fighting Irish.
Four other coaches who played Shamrock a year ago confirmed Shamrock's tactics, but did not want their names used or to be quoted. Following that story, three *190 officials who worked games involving Shamrock called the Globe-News offices to back up allegations.
Only one coach whose team played Shamrock a year ago said the Irish played cleanly.
During the course of last season, six Shamrock players were ejected from games. Many schools can play for 20 years and not have six players ejected.
Following that story, the Globe-News received nearly two dozen letters to the editor supporting Shamrock, the football team and Coach Johnson. All but one was written by Shamrock residentsthe other letter was written by one of Johnson's former assistantswith his football program and all was forgiven.
It's apparent that no change has taken place. He can sweet-talk to his school board members, but he can't sweet-talk to the coaches and media throughout the Panhandle. Many area coaches believe Johnson's a detriment to high school athletics.
It can be argued that it takes two teams to tango, and if last weekend were an isolated incident, that might be true. But when it happens again and again and again, common sense would point a finger at only one team.
Shamrock's reputation is such now that many coaches do not want to schedule games against it.
Unfortunately, five teams are trapped in District 1-1A with Shamrock and must play the Irish. Unfortunately, if Johnson still is coaching the Irish gridders next season, those

On the other hand, some users pointed out that Saudis should be able to afford birthday celebrations as their country is the world's second-leading producer of crude oil.
Despite being one the wealthiest countries in the world, Saudi Arabia suffers from widespread poverty and unemployment.
At least one-quarter of young Saudi men are unemployed, and almost 90 percent of women are essentially out of the labour market altogether.
Millions of Saudis live in poverty, some estimates have put the number as high as a quarter of the native Saudi population of 20 million.
The subject is highly taboo in the absolute monarchy, which is famous for its endless number of billionaire princes.

FINLEY, N.D. - The hunt continues for a fugitive who was last seen running into a cornfield near here, though law enforcement officials say he may have later escaped in a stolen car.
Dylan Klade, 21, Thief River Falls, has been on the run since 11 a.m. Tuesday.
Traill County officials say the car he's accused of stealing was last seen about 7:30 a.m. Wednesday near Clifford, N.D., about 30 miles by road from Finley. It reportedly had just half a tank of gas.
Klade was with another man, Corey Roper, 22, a Level 3 registered sex offender from Thief River Falls. Roper surrendered to Tuesday after a few hours in the cornfield.

Law enforcement officials say the manhunt began after they checked on a recreational vehicle parked

on North Dakota Highway 200 and discovered it was stolen from the Thief River Falls area.
A short time later, officers spotted two men walking down Steele County Road 10. When officers approached, they took off running and ended in a cornfield. The manhunt went on until late at night.
The next morning, a homeowner reported his car had been stolen from a farmstead near Portland, down the road from Finley. Left at the farmstead was a lawnmower believed stolen from an unoccupied farmstead.
Not dangerous
Klade is described as being 5-foot-11-inches and 150 pounds with short black hair. He was last seen wearing a white tank top, blue jeans and no shoes, law enforcement officials said.
Klade is not believed to be dangerous or have a weapon.
According to Minnesota court documents, Kladeloss for the Lions, who lack playmakers without Bush on the field.
Bush added an important dimension as a pass-catcher out of the backfield, taking advantage of teams loading up on wide receiver Calvin Johnson.
With Bush out, backup Joique Bell will start and earn the majority of the carries for the Lions. Rookie running back Theo Riddick most likely will be No. 2. Riddick has displayed some ability taking over Bush's role in the pass game and on wide runs. Former second-round draft pick Mikel Leshoure is active for the first time this season and probably will spell Bell for stretches as the third back.
The Redskins have been susceptible to the run in the first two weeks, but without Bush it will be interesting to see if offensive coordinator

Ypres Salient during the four years of the 1st World War. The homage was very apt: Professor Koch had built for himself a considerable reputation as an author of studies on the 1st World War. Most remarkable: The Netherlands had remained neutral during the conflagration, which adds to the value of his insights.
Death, unfortunately, also ends projects. In the summer of 2014, while doing some preliminary research on the history of chemical warfare, I came across the manuscripts of the chapters that make up the bulk of this book. They were in different editorial stages, the clearest indication of how abruptly the publication project had screeched to an end. Reading them I was struck by the quality of the contents, rough as the texts still were. Together, thecontributions also displayed a high degree of coherence.
One group of papers reflected on the minutiae of the unfolding catastrophe that the unleashing of chlorine against the Allied positions meant for individual soldiers and civilians. They also vividly described German doubts about the effectiveness of the new weapon, and hence its potential impact on combat operations. These contributions also reflected on the lack of Allied response to the many intelligence pointers that something significant was afoot. In hindsight, we may ponder how the Allied military leaders could have missed so many indicators. Yet, matter-of-fact assessments of gas use by Allied combatants recur in several chapters, suggesting either widespread anticipation of the introduction of toxic chemicals as a method of warfare or some degree of specific forewarning of the German

More than 20 people were stung and one hospitalized when a swarm of up to 20,000 killer bees invaded a Phoenix mosque Friday afternoon.
The incident occurred at the Muslim Community Mosque near 32nd Street and McDowell Road, ABC 15 reported.
The road outside the mosque was shut down and fire crews dispatched to spray the building with foam in order to quell the swarms of angry bees.

Attacked: Covered by blankets, worshipers at the Muslim Community Mosque in Phoenix flee the swarm of up to 20,000 killer bees that attacked them Friday afternoon. The bees' nest was located in the mosque's eaves
Foam: Firefighters coated the mosque with a foam to quell the bees. Killer bees, officially known as Africanized bees, are a particularly aggressive strain of bee
Thebut more than 20 were stung 'multiple times' and one 24-year-old man hospitalized, although everyone was said to be in stable condition.
One man told Azfamily.com that he was stung on the face in five different places.
The bees are believed to have been disturbed by the mosque's speakers, which are located next to their nest.
Nest: The nest, in the building's eaves, is thought to have been disturbed by the building's speaker system. Bees build new nests around this time of year, and it is suggested people check their homes once a week

on Jan. 15, 1929.
The name change came in 1934, when Michael King Sr. changed his name to Martin Luther, in honor of the 16th Century Protestant Reformation leader. Michael King Jr. followed in his father's footsteps, and changed his name to Martin Luther King, Jr.
King started college at 15 years old
The average student begins their journey into higher education at the ages of 17 or 18. King skipped grades nine and 12 and enrolled into Morehouse College, a historically black college in Atlanta, at the age of 15. He almost decided against becoming a Baptist minister, until he was convinced otherwise by then-Morehouse president Benjamin E. Mays, according to History. King graduated from Morehouse College with both a degree in sociology and as an ordained minister at 19years old in 1948.
The civil rights leader's first speech on the National Mall didn't take place at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in 1963, but instead happened six years prior. King gave his first speech in front of a national audience at one of the earlier moments of the civil rights movement, the Prayer Pilgrimage for Freedom on May 17, 1957.
The crowd of about 30,000 non-violent demonstrators listened to the Southern preacher's speech on voting rights, pushing King to the forefront of the civil rights movement. Organized by the labor movement leader A. Philip Randolph, the three-hour program featured notable entertainers and civil rights leaders such as actor Harry Belafonte, actor and singer Paul Robeson, gospel singer Mahalia Jackson and then-NAACP executive director Roy Wilkins.

phase as TOC1, and both gi mutations as well as 35S:GI have effects on circadian phase and period length. In the control of flowering time, GI increases the amplitude of CO and FT expression, which are both increased by 35S:GI and decreased by gi mutations. In addition, 35S:GI and gi mutations have opposite effects on flowering time. GI is therefore proposed to play dual roles acting within the circadian clock to regulate period length and circadian phase, while also more directly promoting expression of a circadian clock output pathway that includes CO and FT and promotes flowering. The effect of GI on flowering probably includes another pathway, indicated with an X, because co mutations only partially suppress the early flowering caused by 35S:GI or lhy cca1.

It looks as if journeyman Eric Bakhtiari beat out one of the most prominent names at his position to land a spot on the 49ers 53-man roster. According to Scout.com, former Pro Bowl outside linebacker Shawne Merriman visited the 49ers on Wednesday, the day they signed Bakhtiari to fill in for Clark Haggans during Haggans' three-game suspension.
Bakhtiari was the team's most productive defensive player during the offseason, leading the 49ers in sacks and finishing second in tackles during the exhibition season. Merriman, meanwhile, was one of the most dangerous pass rusher his first three seasons with the Chargers but has been plagued by injuries in recent years.

of 40,000, with cities within them of 20,000. In other words, the Constitution itself fixed such a standard for counties meeting this requirement, and did not exact of the Legislature to exercise any regard to territory or business in such counties before one of them might alone constitute a district. The makers of the Constitution, practical men in the exercise of sound good sense, took it upon themselves to say that in counties of the character described in section 138 a circuit court might exist upon the natural premise that its business would of necessity justify it; but it did not take away from the General Assembly the general power and the general right to constitute any other single county, having due regard to territory, business, and population,into a separate district, so long as the total number of districts did not exceed one for each 60,000 of population. This construction of the Constitution's intent makes the whole of it upon the subject of circuit districts harmonious. It leaves to the General Assembly the right to create a district of a single county when, with due regard to its territory and business, it might deem the creation of the district proper, necessary, or beneficent to the expedition of the litigation of the people of the commonwealth. *606 It is not charged that the business of Franklin county does not justify the erection of it into a separate judicial district, and that the act of the General Assembly creating it was arbitrary or without regard to the

indicted Appellant for malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon,
making false statements, tampering with evidence, possession of a handgun by a person under the
age of 18, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. In the same indictment,
the grand jury charged Robert Bethune with furnishing a handgun to a person under age 18 and
contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Appellant and Bethune were re-indicted on the same

pled guilty to the two charges against him; he was later sentenced under the First Offender Act to
ten years in prison, with the first 36 months to be served in confinement and the balance to be served

all charges. On March 18, 2013, the trial court sentenced Appellant to serve life in prison for malice

by Victor Diodon. Black Market of Horror: In Jerusalem the subject is still considered a state secret, but experts all over the world agree: Israel is the only state in the Middle East to have atom bombs. The first received the Nobel Peace Prize in and has moved among the topmost circles of the Israeli Establishment for over 50 years.
The third has spent more than 17 years in a maximum-security cell of Ashkelon Prison - as traitor to Israel.
The careers of Shimon Peres, 80, Rafi Eitan, 77, and Mordecai Vanunu, 49, reflect central stages in the history of the Jewish state - its successes, its defeats and its inner conflicts. And they touch on a taboo that is officially maintained to this day and is only slowly beingof gratitude, Premier Guy Mollet enters into a secret treaty with Peres in and promises Peres the know-how to build a large reactor at Dimona in the Negev Desert.
The reactor is able to produce plutonium - the stuff atom bombs are made of. When the official Israeli atomic energy commission sees the construction plans for Dimona, the result is an uproar. Six out of seven scientists resign their posts. But even the drop-outs are sworn to silence, under threat of punishment. Ben-Gurion showers Peres with praise. And through the need to deal secretly, for years, with a small group of scientists, political strategists and secret agents, he becomes estranged from the military establishment.

to lead them up the garden path. In Israel constructed its first, primitive atom bomb, and not even the Americans managed to miss that.
When asked, the Israelis fobbed the White House off with a deliberately wishy-washy standard phrase which the diplomat Shimon Peres uses frequently and which expresses official Israeli policy to this day: For several days around October 9, the world teeters on the edge of a nuclear war.
The 13 bombs are returned to their underground desert bunkers. Ever since the s Jerusalem has observed with great concern the rapid nuclear advances of Iraq in particular. With help from France, Saddam Hussein built a most suspicious nuclear reactor in Tuweitha south of Baghdad. In the early morning hours of June 7, , Begin launches eight F fighterplanes, armed with 1,kilo bombs and accompanied by six F interceptors.
They reduce the reactor, located kilometers from the Israeli border, to rubble and ashes. Before the Iraqis have even realized what happened, the bomber planes have returned unscathed to their base near Eilat. This prudent politician, at that time a member of the Opposition, had been one of the few politicians to be made privy to the plan, and had argued vehemently against it as being too great a risk to the lives of the pilots as well as to future relations with the Arab nations.

The navy was at the forefront of Guzmán's last arrest in February 2014, when he was captured in a condominium in the resort city of Mazatlán, also in Sinaloa. On that occasion he was alone with his wife and twin daughters, and the detention was carried out without a shot being fired.
That operation was billed as a major success for the Peña Nieto government that had promised to bring greater effectiveness to the struggle to contain the country's drug cartels. Well over 100,000 people have been killed in violence associated with Mexico's drug wars that sharply intensified in the wake of a major military-led operation against organized crime launched by PeñaNIeto's predecessor President Felipe Calderón in 2006.
But the celebration of picking up the biggest drug lord of all turned to humiliation when he slipped out of his cell on July 11 last year through a tunnel that began in the tiny shower area.
Footage from the surveillance camera that watched his every move 24 hours a day showed Chapo pacing around his cell shortly before he went into the shower and then disappeared from view.
Officials did not arrive at the cell to look for the missing drug lord until about half an hour later in a clear indication of the level of corruption behind the dramatic jailbreak.
The escape was particularly embarrassing because the government had dismissed skepticism that Chapo could be held safely in a Mexican prison, given that

Discovering Naples, enchanting city facing the Mediterranean Sea
Naples is one of the largest and most enchanting cities facing the Mediterranean Sea. Its 2,500 years of history literally speak in palaces, churches, monuments and art galleries. Naples is a magical place where colours, flavors, history are interlaced in a charming mix of culture, joy, and fun with locals who carry on their daily lives with their trademark vivacity and creativity.
Capital of the Campania Region, the city dominates the Gulf of Naples, expanding from the Sorrentine Peninsula to the volcanic area of the Phlegraean Fields. Naples is bestowed in a marvelous bay: the charm of this landscape are the Vesuvius volcano overlooking the bay, and the beautiful islands of Capri, Ischia, and Procida surrounded by theglimmering blue of Mediterranean waters.
Naples is kissed by the sun but also conceals an underground city dug first by the Greeks and subsequently by the Romans, who built a massive aqueduct used until the 17th Century. This underground city can be discovered with a guided tour through tunnels and ruins, such as the Greek-Roman Theatre.
Other enchanting visiting itineraries for those interested in history are the Greek walls that run along Via Mezzocannone and the archaeological site of San Lorenzo Maggiore. If you fancy a ride outside the city centre also Pompeii and Herculaneum are of great archaeological value. These are famous worldwide for their impressive number of Roman ruins and their entire area is also a natural masterpiece created over the course of the millennia by the volcanic

The Lagos state police command has arrested a deadly group of people whose specialty is to organise primary and secondary school students and initiate them into a deadly cult group known as Awawa. They were able to lay their hands on these suspects due to the help of a particular observant teacher.
It was gathered that the said lady who dispenses her duties as a Guidance and Counselling teacher in a public primary and secondary school named Egan Community School had noticed a sinister mark on the lower jaws of some students.
She called out one of the pupils who bore this incision and it was from the lips of this pupil that she heard that the mark was a symbol clearly indicating that he, alongside other pupils, were initiatedmembers of the Awawa cult group. This caused her to cry out to the school authorities.
Upon further investigation, it was discovered that 12 of the primary school pupils were certified members of the cult. Even more, the student who had recruited the 12 seemingly innocent children was also found out.

The police arrested Rasheedat and the other 12 pupils who had been initiated. But even more, two men suspected of being part of the syndicate that spearheaded the initiation of these children were also arrested.
The Lagos state commissioner of police Imohimi Edgal disclosed the arrest of these suspects at the State police command.

29th March 2011
The cholera epidemic crippling the country of Haiti will probably be far worse than governments predicted, according to a recent US study.
Researchers said that, rather than infecting 400,000, the disease could strike almost 800,000 people, and that governments around the world needed to combine their efforts to stem the progress of the epidemic.
Prior to the outbreak last year, Haiti had not had a cholera epidemic in 100 years.
The epidemic followed a devastating earthquake, which uprooted hundreds of thousands of people.
Researchers used a new type of mathematical model to predict the progress of the epidemic around the country.
The new model forecasts over 11,000 deaths by the end of November, if levels of treatment remain the same.
