  • A Virtual Train Journey Along the Mare Ligure from Ventimiglia to Rome
    Italian Culture Newsletter Number 22 A Virtual Train Journey along the Mare Ligure from Ventimiglia to Rome. Marie and I have made this journey on a number of occasions. In doing so we have either made the journey in a single day albeit with a change of train, usually at Genova. On other occasions, we have spent an evening or even a few days at Genova and/or at Livorno or Pisa. The journey described will involve more stops on the way but could be more interesting on that account. The trip begins in Ventimiglia where we stayed overnight on our last day of our last holiday in Italy. This had been occasioned by the French railway strike which prevented any trains from running from Ventimiglia to Nice on the day of our arrival from Rome into the city at the Italian- French border in Liguria. Our first visit to Ventimiglia was in 2006 when some Italian friends from Cuneo, due north of Ventimiglia, in Piemonte, met us at the rail station in Ventimiglia to take us for a short stay at their apartment in Nice. On that occasion we didn’t see much of the city except for part of the old medieval town, which now mostly is the home of many of the southerners from Naples, Calabria and Sicily who moved north seeking employment after WWII. The old town is perched high above the new city with its long sea-front promenade and railway station. Ventimiglia is the ancient Albium Intemelium, the capital of the Intemelii, a Ligurian tribe which long resisted the Romans, until in 115 BC it was forced to submit to Marcus Aemilius Scaurus.

Sc. & Ph.D (Ibadan) (Agricultural Extension and Rural Development) April, 2010 © Shitu Adenipekun Gabriel, 2010 DEDICATION I dedicate this research work to the God Almighty, the one that rules the affairs of the whole world for his saving, sustaining, supplicating and sufficient grace in my life. Also to my articulate, indefatigable, dedicated, caring and ever-loving parents Presiding Elder & Deaconess M.A Shitu. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT In this age of information, knowledge is plentiful, but wisdom is scarce. Wisdom means far more than simply knowing a lot. It is a basic attitude that affects every aspect of life. We may accrue knowledge, but without Jesus Christ the wisdom of God, our knowledge is futile. On this ground, I solemnly express my utmost gratitude to Abba father, the giver of wisdom for the successful completion of my undergraduate study in this prestigious citadel of learning. My unreserved and sincere appreciation goes to my supervisor Dr Mrs Apata O.M for her motherly love and masterpiece of advise, tolerance, encouragement and support in the course of this research work. I am also indebted to all academic staffs in the department of Agricultural Economics & Extension services Dr.

  • Studies in the History of Accounting
    STUDIES ‘IN THE HISTORY OF ACCOUNTING Studies in the History of Accounting Edited on behalf of The Association of University Teachers of Accounting and the American Accounting Association by A. C. LITTLETON, Ph.D. Emeritus Professor of Accounting, University of Illinois and B. S. YAMEY, B.Com. Reader in Economics, London School of Economics and Political Science, University of London 1956 RICHARD D. IRWIN, INC. HOMEWOOD, ILLINOIS Published in the United States of America (©) 1956 by Richard D. Irwin, Inc. Published in Great Britain by Sweet & Maxwell Ltd. of 2 & 3 Chancery Lane London — Law Publishers Printed in Great Britain by The Eastern Press Ltd. of London and Reading Preface MODERN accountancy differs from most branches of professional activity in that one of its major techniques—double-entry book- keeping—goes back as far as the fourteenth, perhaps even the thirteenth, century. This technique has proved to be serviceable and effective in the changing circumstances and with the changing business requirements of over five centuries. It has also had an intellectual interest sufficient to attract the active attention down the centuries of distinguished mathematicians and scientists such as Luca Pacioli, Simon Stevin, Charles Hutton and Augustus de Morgan. It is one of the objectives of this book to iJumine some aspects of the long history of double entry. Its early origins as revealed in surviving accounting records; some of its earliest expositors, their eminence and achievements in wider fields, and their treatises on accounting; the evolution of particular practices associated with double entry; the methods of teaching double entry and the emergence of theories of accounting; the spread of the practice—these are among the subjects considered in this collection of studies.

  • The Law of Civilization and Decay; an Essay on History
    i ',^- ? THE LAW OF Civilization and Decay ^n (i^mv on l^i^tor^ u-i e, BY y 1^ BROOKS ADAMS Wcto gark THE MACMILLAN COMPANY LONDON; MACMILLAN & CO., Ltd. 1897 Aii rights reserved .Ax Copyright, 1896, By the MACMILLAN COMPANY. Set up and electrotyped September, 1896. Reprinted February, September, 1897. T^y Transfe? Nottaooti ^rtss J. S. Cuslung & Co. - Berwick & Smith Norwocid Mass. U.S.A. X PREFACE In offering to the public a second edition of TJie Lata of Civilisation and Decay I take the opportu- nity to say emphatically that such value as the essay may have lies in its freedom from any preconceived bias. All theories contained in the book, whether religious or economic, are the effect, and not the cause, of the way in which the facts unfolded them- selves. I have been passive. The value of history lies not in the multitude of facts collected, but in their relation to each other, and in this respect an author can have no larger responsibility than any other scientific observer. If the sequence of events seems to indicate the exist- ence of a law governing social development, such a law may be suggested, but to approve or disapprove of it would be as futile as to discuss the moral bear- ings of gravitation. Some years ago, when writing a sketch of the his- tory of the colony of Massachusetts Bay, I became deeply interested in certain religious aspects of the Reformation, which seemed hardly reconcilable with the theories usually advanced to explain them. After the book had been published, I continued reading theology, and, step by step, was led back, through the schoolmen and the crusades, to the revival of the VI PREFACE pilgrimage to Palestine, which followed upon the con- version of the Huns.

Ahosan Habib Roll No : 091051 Submitted Date: 12-01-2010 th B.B.A 4 Batch Section - A What is Bank An organization, usually a corporation, chartered by a state or federal government, which does most or all of the following: receives demand deposits and time deposits, honors instruments drawn on them, and pays interest on them; discounts notes, makes loans, and invests in securities; collects checks, drafts, and notes; certifies depositor's checks; and issues drafts and cashier's checks. The name bank derives from the Italian word banco "desk/bench", used during the Renaissance by Jewish Florentine bankers, who used to make their transactions above a desk covered by a green tablecloth. The definition of a bank varies from country to country. Under English common law, a banker is defined as a person who carries on the business of banking, which is specified as: • conducting current accounts for his customers • paying cheques drawn on him, and • collecting cheques for his customers. "Banking business" means the business of receiving money on current or deposit account, paying and collecting cheques drawn by or paid in by customers, the making of advances to customers, and includes such other business as the Authority may prescribe for the purposes of this Act; - (Banking Act (Singapore), Section 2, Interpretation). “A bank provides service activity and acts an intermediary between creditor and lender.
