    ...So yesterday we talked about the global picture, but now we\u27re going to go to the other end so that tomorrow we\u27re going to talk about your church. But today I want to challenge you. Since yesterday we were challenged to think globally, I\u27m going to challenge now to act locally...But I want to challenge you today to do something radical for Jesus

    [Transcription begins] Monday 7.10 AM. July 24, 1944 Dear Folks, No Detail this mornig so have few minutes before leaving for work. Nothing much to write about since Sat morning! I did go in town Sat evening after mess. I took my blouses and 3 shirts in town and bought new stripes & had them sewed on by a dress maker. Saved me hours of work yesterday. I went to show and then went back to camp. Yesterday was just plain lazy. I didn’t get up until 11.00. Then I leisurely cleaned up my foot locker and got dressed in my slack suit for lunch. I went back to bed after dinner (after sitting out doors in our wooden lawn chairs for about a half an hour) – I read all the newspapers I haven’t had time to read the last two weeks and the newspaper stories. Had a grand time. After supper, I ironed two skirts & four shirts. Then got dressed and went to the show. Saw “Summer Storm” No good. Must leave now and go to work. Love to all of you. Kay P.S. Had a v-mail from Craig dated July 10th. He wanted to be remembered to all of you. [Transcription ends

    Combating International Terrorism: The United Nations Developments

    Get PDF
    Although reflected in one word, terrorism has become refracted, in the numerous U.N. bodies dealing with it, into a multicolored concept-and all its qualities tend to be given different emphases. Also, although that one word has been with us since the last decade of the 18th century, its connotations have changed as states mature and yesterday\u27s partisans become today\u27s establishment

    [Transcription begins] Mon. P.M. 8.00 PM 20 Aug 45 Dear Folks, Just a note before I go to the movies to see James Stewart in “Jimmy Steps Out.” We went on winter hours today 8 to 5.30 – Didn’t have to get up until 6.30 instead of 5.30 – Seemed good to me. We had Sat off (all day) – washed & ironed until about 3 o’clock – then went to Macon for supper & the show – We (Marj, Minnie & I) saw Pan American – (which was pretty good). Yesterday I slept nearly all day and read some – then went to the show last night – “Dangerous Partners” not really worth seeing. This seems to be my show week! I even went Friday evening also! – and plan to go nearly every night this week as there are good shows every night!! I’m afraid, Mother, that you’d better not make plans for my early return!! I don’t expect to be out for some time. Nothing yet has changed since the war ended. – I don’t think it will for some months. This really is a rush job – I’ve got to finish now to get this mailed tonight! Hastily but with love to all Kay [Transcription ends

    Get PDF
    In time characterized by complex and uncertain business environment and working conditions; where small, medium but even large (and up till yesterday) successful companies are failing on daily basis, it is important to have economy models which will ensure reestablishment of value system of industrial era, models which will give expected, positive, results. In general, this is not the case since there is no compatibility of models with requirements of information era. So, those negative results together with market positions taken by those who understand changes better, emphasises need for understanding and implementing change management in companies. When trying to overcome mentioned obstacles in coping with changes and demolished value system, key success variable was detected – human capital as the best source of creative energy. In this study, human capital, as in many studies before, is recognised as driving force of intellectual capital and as well as synergy effect of conatival, motivational, cognitional, social, moral and communicational dimension.economy of knowledge, intellectual capital, human capital, future
