The Institutional Compass: Method, Use and Scope
This open access book presents a new generation multi-criteria, multi-stake holder, decision aide, called an "institutional compass". Based on hard data, the compass tells us what quality-direction we are heading in as an institution, region, system or organisation. The quality is not chosen from the usual scalar qualities of: good, neutral and bad. Instead, it is a quality chosen between: harmony, discipline and excitement. None is good in and of itself. We need some of each. The compass marks a new generation in four respects. 1. The representation of the data is intuitive and simple to understand, and therefore can be used to communicate and justify policy decisions. 2. Any data can be in...

Citizenship Rites
Feinman (Institute for Human Communication, California State U.), labeling herself an antimilitarist feminist, attempts to account for and reconcile the structures that lead some feminists to insist on full inclusion and participation in the armed forces. Analyzing and approving the wish for inclusion as a will towards full citizenship, she nevertheless argues that the military and war itself are essentially expressions of patriarchy and calls for a dialogue between feminist militarists and feminist antimilitarist (without this dialogue, she fears, the field is left open to antifeminist militarists).

The Goddess Pose
When the woman who would become Indra Devi was born in Russia in 1899, yoga was virtually unknown outside of India. By the time of her death, in 2002, it was being practiced everywhere, from Brooklyn to Berlin to Ulaanbaatar. In The Goddess Pose, New York Times best-selling author Michelle Goldberg traces the life of the incredible woman who brought yoga to the West and in so doing paints a sweeping picture of the twentieth century.

"The Lady Di" Conspiracy
"Possibly they died in the hands of British MI-5 Intelligent agents who have been spying on them", said Glyn Jones, a former British Intelligent agent who had been recruited from Special Air Service (SAS) - British elite air-force†as he was giving comments on the death of Diana and Dodi Al-Fayed, (Indonesian magazine, Gatra, October 11, 1997), quoted from the German tabloid (Dos Neue). Having been tracing the route of Paul's blood sample, which was examined by the judges in France, Al-Fayed concluded that such the blood sample was not Paul's; it had been changed in order to cover the murder. Then he uttered: "What happened to Diana and my son was nothing but a murder, and I won't just...
