Pashmina or cashmere is one of the most expensive natural fabrics in the world, and yet the lives of those who produce this rare fibre are the toughest ones. This article seeks to analyse the various stages in the creation and development of the Looms of Ladakh Women Cooperative under Project Laktsal of the district administration Leh. It is an initiative to empower rural Ladakhi women by endowing them with skills necessary to add value to raw pashmina and woollen fibres to turn them into the high-end products perennially in demand. Sharing the lessons learnt in bringing together 150 uneducated, unemployed women from different and distant villages and in training and uniting them by the creation of a cooperative society is the endeavour of the article. It analyses various steps involved in building forward and backward linkages for the organisation and imparting the women with such diverse skills as knitting, weaving, production planning, marketing and financial management. The article also tries to put the effort in the right perspective, giving an idea of the extremely tough conditions faced on a daily basis by the women of rural Ladakh.

The article substantiates the doctrine of Zionism as a post-socialist system and the national idea of modern Russia. The basis of civilizationism is civil property, the right of every citizen to an equal share of the socialist inheritance (national property). In the current circumstances, to achieve a real socio-political agreement in the country, to overcome the war for property, to really recognize the results of previous reforms by society and to support new transformations, a fair social contract on the creation of a civil property fund is necessary.

“Language at Work – Bridging Theory and Practice” caught up with busy Corey Morris on a cold and rainy November day in Denmark. We had two main reasons for looking up Corey at his work. First, we knew that his work takes him to the four corners of the world of branding on a daily basis. Second, we were well aware that Corey would be the right person to ask questions as to where branding is going these days.

After the information released by Edward Snowden, the world realized about the security risks of high surveillance from governments to citizens or among governments, and how it can affect the freedom, democracy and/or peace. Research has been carried out for the creation of the necessary tools for the countermeasures to all this surveillance. One of the more powerful tools is the Tails system as a complement of The Onion Router (TOR). Even though there are limitations and flaws, the progress has been significant and we are moving in the right direction.

In connection with the processes of decentralization, the issues related to the formation of amalgamated hromadas (AHs) are gaining more and more attention. A big advantage in the creation of AHs is the transfer of significant powers from the State authorities on budgets to the local self-government. It is proved that the software in the sphere of management accounting and budgeting should include methodologies of implementation of the subsystems of both the budget and the process management, as well as means for projecting regulations of the financial management system. The authors propose the necessary minimum requirements for the software of the budgeting process, which display that due to a powerful and flexible system of formation of analytical reports, there is a significant improvement in the organization of work on the implementation and analysis of the budget. The list and characterization of the software available on the Ukrainian market are presented, which justify that the automation of budgeting through the introduction of an integrated information system is possible and depends only on the understanding of the importance and necessity of this process by the leadership of AH. The process of developing managerial decisions has a number of analytical procedures: analysis of the incoming information used for managerial decision-making; analysis of alternative solutions regarding the options; analysis of the progress of implementation of decision and analysis of deviations of the results obtained from the planned ones. Analytical activity is an integral attribute of the entire management process. According to the results of the research, one can conclude that the increase in the number of managerial tasks facing the leadership of hromada at the same time forms the preconditions for the creation of an informational-analytical system, the data of which will be able to satisfy any requests – both external and internal. Providing the necessary information at the right time on the basis of management accounting and analysis is the essence of the organization of information service of budgeting and management processes, contributes to the achievement of the goals outlined in the strategy for development of hromada.

Heralded as the most progressive legislation of the world, the Children Act of 1989 revolutionized children’s law in England and Wales. It is underpinned by six principles: the supremacy of the child’s interest in all decisions concerning their upbringing and education; the recognition that it is best for any chid to be brought up by their blood family, that his religious and ethnic background must be respected, and that siblings should not be separated; the abolition of the stigma of illegitimacy and its replacement with the attribution at birth of paternal responsibility to the child’s father; the unification of public and private law, and the creation of the ‘menu’ of Residence, Contact, Prohibition, and Specific Issue orders available to the court; the establisment of the new principle that time is of the essence in all cases relating to children; and the creation of the presumption that ‘no order is better than an order’ thus the ingerence of the court must be minimal. I believed in those principles and in the benefits that the Children Act would bring to my clients—children and parents alike. I had some reservations: the system was expensive to implement on two counts: first, it gave the child a ‘guardian’ (a qualified social worker appointed by the court through CAFCASS, a governmental agency), as well as their own solicitor paid for by Legal Aid, as was the representative of the parents, who had the right to instruct independent experts; second, because its requirements of social services and other agencies involved further training and increased resources, as well as further involvement of the judiciary, and increased court time. Hornby and Levy were at the forefront of its implementation: our entire staff received in-house training that was open to other disciplines, within the spirit of cooperation between agencies that permeated the Act and its implementation. I also lectured in Britain and abroad and was proud to tell others that social services were under a duty to keep families united, rather than removing children from parents, and make efforts to return to the family the child removed from it, or if this failed, to place the child within the extended family, or with adoptive parents, within a year.

After the information released by Edward Snowden, the world realized about the security risks of high surveillance from governments to citizens or among governments, and how it can affect the freedom, democracy, and peace. And organizations such as WikiLeaks has shown just how much data is collected to include the poor security controls in place to protect that information. Research has been carried out for the creation of the necessary tools for the countermeasures to all these surveillance. One of the most potent tools is the Tails system as a complement of The Onion Router (TOR). Even though there are limitations and flaws, the progress has been significant, and we are moving in the right direction. As more individuals and organizations fall under a watchful eye on their Internet activities then maintaining anonymity it not only essential for getting out information but one's safety.

On Line Learning

Abstract: Many universities and colleges have started to invest heavily in on-line teaching. Why are institutions across the world doing this? Is the investment justified? This paper attempts to answer these questions by drawing on results from three Canadian case studies. The studies indicate that on-line learning can open up new markets. The flexibility of on-line learning makes it particularly appropriate for mature, "lifelong" learners. Students appreciate the opportunity to work collaboratively and closely with teachers and colleagues from across the world. Under the right conditions, on-line learning can be cost effective and even profit-making. However, financial management, technical support for faculty, allocation of revenues to those units that take the risk, professionalism, and a team approach to course development and delivery are all critical factors for success. Résumé: Plusieurs universités et collèges ont commencé à investir considérablement dans l'enseignement en ligne. Pourquoi des institutions autour du monde sont-elles en train de faire ceci? Peut-on justifier un tel investissement? Cet article essaie de répondre à ces questions en recourant aux résultats de trois études de cas canadiennes. Ces études indiquent que l'apprentissage en ligne peut ouvrir de nouveau marchés. Sa flexibilité le rend particulièrement approprié pour les étudiants plus âgés ayant des responsabilités de travail ou de famille. Les étudiants en général apprécient l'occasion de collaborer de près avec des enseignants et des collègues autour du monde. Dans les bonnes conditions, l'apprentissage en ligne peut être rentable et même profitable. Cependant, plusieurs facteurs critiques sont nécessaires pour rencontrer le succès, y compris une bonne gestion fiscale, un appui technique pour le corps enseignant, l'allocation de revenus à ces unités qui prennent un risque, le professionnalisme, et un bon esprit d'équipe dans le développement et l'enseignement des cours.

Parents With Disabilities

In his recent paper, Adam Cureton presents a compelling case in support of the right of parents with disabilities to conceive and raise children. Cureton argues that (a) caring for a parent with a disability may be beneficial for a child and (b) the creation of a child with the intention of him/her being a carer for his/her disabled parent is objectionable. This response to Cureton's paper will focus on the creation of children with the purpose of them being carers for their disabled parents. I will respond to Cureton on three counts. First, I propose that claims (a) and (b) are incompatible. Second, I will argue that even from a Kantian perspective it is not clear that creating a child as a carer is objectionable. Third, I will argue more broadly that the intentions with which parents bring children into the world are not predictive of the concern parents should show their children once they come into existence.

The world has witnessed in the last decade the creation and dissemination of social media websites, such as Facebook, twitter, YouTube, Linkedin, and a myriad of other forums and blogs that have revolutionized ways of communication among individuals on personal and professional level. Given the above, the following paper investigates the extent to which judges could use and interact on social media websites to communicate with the outside world. The importance of this research seems to rise in light of what has been recently revealed by some American and European statistics that have shown a significant increase in the number of judges using social media. In answering this inquiry, Scholars and Courts have been divided into two main groups; the first of which denies judges the right to join or interact on social media websites to preserve judges’ impartiality and independence. The second group acknowledged judges’ right to use social media, but subjects this right to a number of limitations and conditions imposed by the nature of the judicial function. Based on the above, the roadmap of this paper will be divided into two main sections; the first of which will examine arguments of proponents and opponents of judges’ right to use social media. The second will be dedicated to address limitations and restrictions on judges’ right to use social media by means of analyzing a number of courts’ decisions in comparative legal systems.
