We would also like to thank Dr. Ellyn Kaschak of the San Jose State University, California, and Dr. Sara Sharratt of the University of California in Sonoma; both were of great help to our team of researchers and field-workers. Moreover, Dr. Sharratt also assisted in the preparation of the interview guide and in the training of interviewers. Anna Arroba, Coordinator of Gender Programmes at ILPES, and Dr. Doris Sossa were equally generous in their support, with Dr. Sosa in particular providing vital assistance through his interpretation of interview findings and by reviewing earlier drafts of the present work.
Meanwhile, Pilar Saavedra is to be thanked for her timely translations of bibliographical material from English into Spanish, as well as her careful editing of the Spanish text. Maria Laroche was responsible for the English translation of this work.
We must also acknowledge the tireless support provided by a number of ILPES staff members. Administrative director Rodrigo Vargas coordinated all logistical aspects of project implementation, as well as engaging in the transcription and preparation of data for analysis. Rolando Guevara, meanwhile, developed the data base which was subsequently used to organize and analyze the research findings.
In similar fashion, special mention must be made of all those who were involved in the project as interviewers and transcribers. Among the former group are Abelardo Araya, Kattia Castellón, Jenny Castro, Kattia Chinchilla, Larissa Fallas, Glenn Fonseca, Tatiana Fonseca, Tamara Fuster, Carmen Gutiérrez, Allan Guzmán, Marla Hernández, Patricia Jones, Carmen León, Kattia López, Erick Quesada, César RodrÃguez, Indira RodrÃguez, Fresia Romero, Edgar Salgado, Vanessa Smith, Viria SolÃs and Luis Villalta.
Discovery - Taylor Alexander
His left wingman was just destroyed in a ball of energized plasma, and the enemy fighters maneuvered to complete their attack. Jeff stole a glance out his right wing and was reassured by Quedocdo’s remaining tightly formed Cooja fighter. Several close shots and a pair of missiles launched caused them both to pitch up, then right, and finally down with a following increase to maximum thrust that caused him to nearly lose consciousness. Jeff raced for the planet’s surface with Quedocdo flying cover. Less than three minutes to impact the surface. The g-forces from the constant tight maneuvering was excruciating and the remaining wingman screamed in protest.The enemy was keenly aware of his formation’s lack of reserves and continued toattack like wolves sensing an injured prey. Jeff was not about to give up, because to do so would mean certain failure and possible death. What was the count now? Five to one… and the enemy had the advantage. It didn’t matter, it would take only one well placed shot to end his life. The ship’s warning sensors also screamed their protest at his high g maneuvers. Jeff would have lost consciousness countless times except the specially designed seat continued to squeeze the right amount of blood from his lower extremities to his brain, which in turn caused a massive headache. He cursed that the fighter was able to take much more stress than the human body. A dozen times he felt like punching the override and taking the compensation system offline. Jeff felt a gray out would be a better measure of one’s limit. Those damn sensors would allow for the greatest degree of stress without killing the pilot, a condition that, for his physiology, was difficult to get accustomed to. A half dozen balls of plasma energy from his rear to front signaled he was again nearly destroyed. Sweat began to fill the space between his flight suit and skin which in turn started to interrupt the biofeedback connection that kept the fighter from overstressing the pilot. Another Master Caution light on the malfunction panel warned of the loss of feedback. Jeff looked at the bright red warning light and punched the reset as a terrain warning flashed red. Another string of bright blue plasma pulses streaked across his canopy and disappeared in the distance. Too close. The terrain was coming up too fast. Level off now, his mind screamed, buying another second longer might help to fool the pursuers. Most had positioned relatively above his intended path, so when he did pull out he and his wingman would have to fly through a wall of deadly cannon fire.
Quedocdo was prepared. Jeff transmitted, “Now!” In unison both fighters rolled 180 degrees and pulled back hard to arrest their perpendicular dash to the surface. The enemy’s momentary hesitation doomed the four fighters that had continued the vertical dash. The g-meters read 12.65 at their highest point. The enemy fighter that was following below their flight path had begun to pull up early, but when it noticed the deception, it too rolled to continue chase. So did the three positioned above the fleeing Cooja fighters. Jeff and Quedocdo barely cleared the lush vegetation of the valley floor. The enemy wasn’t as lucky. All four craft that were giving chase crashed into the forest. That left the six enemy fighters that had raced to the far end of the mountain pass in an effort to lie in ambush.
With the safety of distance, Jeff asked, “Quedocdo, do you want to call it a day and dash for the comfort and protection of the Katvanshevic?”
Hitler In Central America
INTRODUCTION “The Sikoras are dying out!‖ I shouted as I awoke.” The Sikoras are dying out!‖
The long dream had started in the Jewish cemetery. The graves of my maternal relatives seemed to be going up everywhere, two or three under construction while the cement was still fresh on the others, like a poorly planned but teeming slum of the dead. While the Schifters, my father's family, were reproducing like yeast, my mother's side was experiencing a population implosion. Before long, there would be more of us within the cemetery's brick walls than out.
Hector asked me to calm down. ―Stop bringing the house down with your shouting,‖ he said. ―There are still some relatives of your mother left. It's true that some of them are a little mentally defective, but there are others who can keep the species alive.‖
“You mean I had a nightmare?‖” I asked.
“Another one,‖ he said, referring to the dreams I had been having all week.” I guess you won't be able to go to sleep right away. So,‖ he added without much enthusiasm, “why don't you tell me your dream? It might help you to settle down.‖
San José's Jewish cemetery is located in a southwestern district of Costa Rica's capital, behind the much larger Catholic cemetery. The property was bought on April 19, 1931; my grandfather, David Sikora, was one of the promoters of the project. In one of the early dreams in the series, I saw him signing a check and handing it over to the seller in the name of the few Jews then living in the country. “I intend to have my wife join me here,‖ he told the seller,” and I want a plot for her. If I have to strangle her one day, I don't want her buried in the streets like a dog.‖
On October 9, 1932, the first burial took place. My grandfather was thrilled. “Didn't I tell you that it was good to think ahead?‖ he said to the other members of the Chevra Kiddushe, the religious board that managed the cemetery and made sure that the dead were buried according to prescribed rituals.” We already have our first tenant.‖
“The man's lucky,‖ said Don José, a fellow Jew.” He bought this plot dirt cheap.‖
“Yes, sir,‖ said my grandfather.” Just imagine what it's going to cost to live here in fifty years.‖

Creating Your First Website - Chris Farrell
A question I get asked often is – do I need a website of my own? This is a GREAT question. When I started in this business I asked exactly the same. I had precisely ZERO knowledge of how to create a website. The thought terrified me. I had the attitude ‘I can’t do that’ (an attitude incidentally that I had to change and so will you).
It would be so much easier – so I thought – to use a website that I could get for free, and that was already set up for me. Particularly as there are so many free websites available.
Let me be blunt here.
Your website is integral to the success of your business. YOUR website, not somebody else’s. If you don’t spend at least a little time getting to learn the basics (which is the point of this eBook) you will be constantly nervous when working from home, as there will be a huge part of your business that you ‘don’t really understand.’ Clearly you cannot operate like this.
What happens when something goes wrong, or you want to make a very simple change to your site? Will you call up your technical person or your web buddy every time? Will you out-source all your web questions to someone else? Your website is the life blood of your business. Get used to it. If you really are serious about making money from home, you need to get over your web fear. You will accomplish that with this eBook.
