The VermelhA hen history of the red hen that found some grains of wheat and said its neighbors: If to plant wheat, we will have bread to eat. Somebody wants to help me to plant it? ' – I not. It said the cow. – Nor I. It amended the duck. – I also not. The pig spoke.

– I much less. It completed the goose. – Then same I plant. He said the red hen. made thus it. The wheat grew high and ripened in golden grains. – Who goes to help to the spoon the wheat me? It wanted to know agalinha. – I not.

It said the duck. – It is not part of my functions. It said the pig. – Not after as many years of service. Exclamou the cow. – I would risk myself to lose the insurance-unemployment. He said the goose. – Then same I harvest. The hen spoke, and harvested the wheat same it. Finally, the hour arrived to prepare the bread. – Who goes to help me to bake the bread? It inquired the red hen. – If Only to pay overtime to me. The cow spoke. – I cannot at risk for my sick pay. He amended the duck. – I ran away from the school and I never learned to make bread. It said the pig. – In case that I only help, he is discrimination. The goose muttered. – Then same I make. Exclamou small galinhavermelha. It baked five breads, and put all in a basket so that the neighbors could see. Suddenly, everybody wanted bread, and demanded a piece. But the hen simply said: – Not, I go to eat five breads alone. – Extreme Profits. The cow cried out. – Capitalist Sanguessuga. Exclamou the duck. – I demand equal rights. Bradou the goose. The pig, this only grunhiu. They had painted bands and posters saying ' Injustia' had marched in protest against the hen, having cried out obscenities.

The employee of the government said. This is the beauty of free enterprise. Any in the farm can here earn how much to want, but under our modern governmental regulations, the workers most productive has that to divide the product of its work comos who do not make nothing. all had lived happy forever, also the small red hen, that smiled and cacarejou: – I am grateful, I I am grateful. But the neighbors always asked why the hen, since then, never more made nothing, no initiative, no action to produce Not even poQualquer similarity with the current situation in many places and heads, it will not be mere coincidence. Still I believe that only the freedom, work, generation of wealth and income can guarantee a welfare state and development.

To place bureaucrats to plan on of natural forces never goes to function, to only stimulate the indolncia and the injustice.

PCB Column

We must recognize, in fact, that in the marxist interpretation of the contemporaries of the Revolution of 1930 until years 50, it exists, clearly, a reducionista and determinista reading of the history of the First one Republic, concentrating in the actions of a small vanguard the paper of revolutionaries. For example, Nelson Werneck Sodr (1984), controller of the Department of History of the ISEB, when analyzing the historical paper of the Column You give, says in them that its existence was essential to consolidate the interests of the Brazilian population that if it saw oppressed by the regional oligarchies; representing the urban middle classes (progressive bourgeoisie) against the degradation politics and moral of the country, it is that the Column You give will go to firm itself while revolutionary vanguard e, mainly, will go to serve of element of cohesion between progressive and PCB in the fight against 4 the feudal oligarchies. Sodr (1984) says that, this integration between bourgeoisie and laboring party through the Column You give is a temporary event, a forged alliance, such which happened with the alliance, at the beginning of the decade of 1920, between PCB and anarchists, the linking with the lieutenants will have after to be neutralized to have played its historical paper, namely, the development of the capitalist relations in the country that will bring I obtain the growth of the conscience and the organization of the Brazilian proletariat. Therefore, for the orthodox intellectuality 5 of the PCB and, later, the ISEB, history if makes for a process ' ' etapista' ' positive in direction to the socialism. It is in such a way that, Boris Fausto (1997), supported in the heterodoxia of I fall the Prado Jr 6, will go ' ' inaugurar' ' a new form of critical interpretation in relation to the PCB and the ISEB, pointing the trend of the Brazilian intellectuality to associate revolution to the ascension of a classroom to the power, being followed examples of literature occidental person, in the majority of the cases, of 7 marxist influence ; this poor and simplista trend makes with that if it tries ' ' …

Marxist Theory

The theory of the activity was developed by Leontiev (1903 – 1979) from a conception of the nature Marxist dialectic-material appraised by Vygotsky (1896-1934). The theory presents the activity human being directed toward its expression in the psychic activity, is based, in special, on two principles: ) of the configuration of the nature the human being as resultant activity of the mediation of its relations in the field of the action human being and its reality. b) the social and cultural context of the individual that develops its superior psychic activities in the process of internalizao of the relations mediated with the half exterior in which if points out inserted. Galperin (1902-1988) applied the theory of the activity detaching the importance of the external factors in gnese of the mental functions directed toward the didactic activities. The paper of the theory of the activity in the mediation of the object with its corresponding action (P.

former is observed. the activity to read results in the action of reading). Elkonin (1904-1984) formulates the development psychic, from the external factors, of the essential learning as form of internalization of the culture that develops the historical formation of the individual. Davydov (1930-1998), incorporating the boarding of its predecessors, extends the theory of the activity directed toward a theory of the desenvolvimental education, that has for target the formation of the citizen of the knowledge in ' ' pensar' '. Extending the scope of the research developed for its predecessors, Davydov affirms that the knowledge in the learning phase is the technician-scientific knowledge, therefore supported in a methodology. This methodology is based by the logical dialectic and allows that the citizen acquires the ability and ability to think by itself, exceeding the mere transmission of content. The teorizao compiled for Davydov, can be detached three points: 1) Integration between the scientific contents and the development of the thought processes.

Establish Powerful Goals

Posted on by

The goals and objectives must be specific! An objective that means to lower of weight or to have more money next year does not have any value. We must be specific, saying for example Voy to lower to 14 kilos or I am going to increase my income of 500 to 1000 dollars monthly. In this particular case I have settled down as Bajar puts specific for the 2009 1 kilo of weight per month. When you consider a goal specific, then you are able to develop an effective strategy to obtain it.

When I established my goal of 1 kg of weight per month, then it develops a system that it includes: to eat 30% of vegetables I mean, a third of my plate is at least going to have vegetables, to make more exercise daily probably is Measurable swimming but long walks, etc.: Your objectives and I put they must be measurable. healthful Estar is not measurable, but to have 12 kg less or to lower of stature 34 to 32 if they are it. The great majority of people does not reach its objectives because measurable profits do not consider. Again, we are reinforcing the message: when having measurable objectives, your mind will try to reach that objective and more will be focused to a goal. Fit: Goals and objectives that are complican as we are spending the time are not very motivantes. You need goals that make you leave your zone of comfort, those goals that puts to think and to take mass operations to you (like for example doubling your income in 6 months), that thought generates more adrenalin, more energy in you.

, which is, understands that in the case of the Lybian if it makes necessary the presence of Kadafi, for the simple fact not to exisitirem men capable to manage the destinations of that one nation. On the other hand to if intitling pseudo-heir of Simon Bolivar, also it understands that in Venezuela, said which in relation to Peru, does not have men capable to support the State. When searching allies as the Iran and Russia. He makes as he made it Bolivar, who seeing the defeat if to materialize before the Spaniard, searched support of England that simply ignored such order. But as in such a way in one as another one the government style if is similar to the one of Chavez, who tries with mediticos and estapafrdios artifices to give to understand to the world that the situation of the Lybian could be brightened up way ALBA. In the world-wide scene where one takes in account military, financial, industrial, cultural, democratic, ambient the values and social, it would be to ask to which the weight that the countries invited by the parachutist president, have to mediate this situation? In the reality what he searchs the Venezuelan dictator is to create a scene, so that if he does not dissolve in the time and history, the old caudilhismo that always campeou the untied one for the South America. The coup-minded one president tends to keep the tradition of the Venezuelan caudilhismo that if initiates with Jose Toledo Monagas, Antonio Blanco and finally with Juan Vicente Gmez.

Currently the situation reinante politics in the Arab countries and the Persian country tends to search radical changes in function of that the existing social disparity is very great. The richnesses accumulated for the families of the dictators are something without pair in history contemporary. Considering that the majority of the Arab countries is governed by dictators, it would be much more that logical the position it dictator of Venezuela: to be solidary with its pairs.

The Winds And The Planning Of The Cities

Posted on by

The winds and the planning of the cities Which the importance of the winds for the planning of the cities? The winds blow in some directions. In our planet, in some localities the wind blows more frequently in a direction of what in others. The wind that blows in this direction receives the name from predominant wind or wind prevalecente. Which the importance of this for the planning of cities? Knowing the predominant wind of a place where a city must be installed, for example, the place most adequate for the installation of industries, lixes can be decided, airports. The industrial region must be pointed out in a place where the predominant winds smell carreguem it and the pollutants emitted for the chimneys for distant places of the city (Figure 1). In case that if it has not led in consideration the wind, can be implanted an industrial polar region in a place where the predominant winds will take the evil smell and the pollutants directly for the parts residences of the city.

The same example serves for the lixes. Figure 1. Industries emitting pollution. Before installing them in a certain place the predominant direction of the wind in the region must be known that will receive (s) the industry (s). Source of the photo: For airports it must be attempted against to locate them of form that the wind facilitates to the landing and the take-off of the aircraft. Thus, if the predominant wind is of the direction North-South highway, the flight track must be constructed in this direction and direction. Of the opposite, one increases the risks of accidents during the landing and take-off of airplanes. Although many times let us not notice the importance of the winds, the examples above, supply a notion of the importance of them, for example, planning of the cities.

History Of Maicao

Posted on by

For more than four decades social science teachers have taught children that Maicao was founded by Colonel Rodolfo Morales and his sister Otilia Ramirez of June 29, 1926 around a checkpoint of the customs of which the first of the two was responsible. Based on this historical version the Mayor at the time in 1976 a splendid programme organized to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the Foundation and those who were going to school learned in classes of the Professor Ramiro Choles than that strange word, 50th anniversary, it meant date that met 50 years of some event and commemoration is made on this date. In year 2.006 Fernandez de Mayor Daissy Hernandez organized a programme of great height to commemorate the 80 years of the city. Became a forum in which MEPs and representatives of the Governors participated different personalities, among them of the formerly large Magdalena Department. On that occasion the Cesar departmental Assembly gave recognition to Maicao due to the Permanent Exchange that holds North of the commercial capital of la Guajira Department. This year the number 82 anniversary should celebrate and, indeed, the House of culture has prepared a program to give this date the importance that it deserves, but there is a but.

Let’s see what is. The historian Luis Guillermo Burgos, a samarium devoted years to studying the history of la guajira and, especially, of Maicao, has dug and dug until you find historical documents where refers to Maicao. It is not uncommon that a historical document mention of Maicao-. For nothing. But it is his date: 1921. That data throws by land which has sustained the tradition in the sense of that the foundation of this land where Colombia and Venezuela meet (some say are separated) through border stripe would have been founded in 1926 or 1927 (not been determined with absolute accuracy).

Amsterdam

Posted on by

Already a little more 10 years ago I visited for the first time the beautiful city of Amsterdam. From the first day they catched its constructions to me that seem extracted of one of those stories that extended the childhood to us. Their paved streets, their beautiful and melancholic landscape, along with their channels, conform a spectacular corner in the world that is necessary to discover. After that one first time I have returned in several occasions to Amsterdam. In fact, at my university time I attended a scholarship of studies in Leiden, a Dutch city that is something more to the south of the Dutch country, but whose proximity allowed me to visit the capital with certain frequency. Amsterdam is an incredibly cosmopolitan city. Different cultures and forms to understand the life become a glut in the streets like the transport means. Bicycles, street cars, buses, car and motorcycles cross the same streets that their inhabitants walk on a daily basis forming an organized chaos.

Within days I will return. This time I will try with Bonotour. A long time ago I already bought a bond to this company in that I have discounts in my trips. One day ago I discovered a supply by means of which by 71 Euros night I have pillaged a hotel 3 stars. I go a friend and, and the double room, costs 286.42 Euros to us to each by 4 nights. The trip includes the flight, the rates, the basic insurance and the lodging to us plus the breakfast. It seems a good supply! At the moment all trips with Bonotour have gone to me well. I have tremendous desire to return to see my favorite city.
