Armenian National Committee of America – Western Region 104 North Belmont Street, Suite 200, Glendale, California 91206 818.500.1918 [email protected] www.ancawr.org PRESS RELEASE +++ PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release: September 27, 2013 Contact: Elen Asatryan Tel: 818.500.1918 Cell: 818.523.8389 Email: [email protected] California Delegation and ANCA-Western Region Return Home in High Spirits After Productive Visit to Nagorno Karabakh Glendale, CA - Earlier this week, a delegation comprised of CA State Assemblymembers, Los Angeles City Councilmembers, their staff, and representatives from the Armenian National Committee of America – Western Region returned home from a two-day working visit to the Nagorno Karabakh Republic. During the visit, the delegation received a firsthand look at a region that is vital to both American and international security concerns and aided in reaffirming their longstanding commitment in support of NKR. The delegation participated in high-level meetings and briefings with NKR leaders, including NKR President Bako Sahakian and several cabinet members, Speaker of the National Assembly Ashot Ghoulian, and Members of the National Assembly. The meetings allowed for the two sides to discuss how they may strengthen relations between the State of California and Artsakh while also giving opportunity for US officials to gain insight on issues of diplomacy, security, trade, and Azerbaijan’s refusal to cooperate on reaching a peace agreement despite continuous efforts placed forth by NKR. The evening was highlighted by a Presidential reception for the CA delegation where the children of Artsakh performed heartwarming musical selections for the group. Coincidentally during the CA delegation visit, other foreign delegations were also in NKR, including Canadian Parliament Member Stephane Dion, British House of Lords member Baroness Caroline Cox who was accompanied by ANCA- ER Executive Director Michelle Hagopian, and others. -

Softcover. 17 x 24 cm. 78.00 Euro The origins of dynamical systems trace back to flows and differential equations, and this is a modern text and reference on dynamical systems in which continuous-time dynamics is primary. It addresses needs unmet by modern books on dynamical systems, which largely focus on discrete time. Students have lacked a useful introduction to flows, and researchers have difficulty finding references to cite for core results in the theory of flows. Even when these are known substantial diligence and consulta- tion with experts is often needed to find them. This book presents the theory of flows from the topological, smooth, and measurable points of view. The first part introduces the general topological and ergodic theory of flows, and the second part presents the core theory of hyperbolic flows as well as a range of recent developments. -
The Legendary Contribution of the Armenians in the History of Creating of the National Alphabets in the World
The legendary contribution of the Armenians in the history of creating of the national alphabets in the world Prof. G. Vahanyan Various artifacts of tangible and intangible heritage point at the sources or carry information on the significant role of the Armenians (old Armenian civilization) in the creation of the alphabets of different nations throughout the world. Hereafter are presented the most significant of them: 1. Ideograms and hieroglyphs, that are identified in the Armenian Rock Art, are the prototypes and form the basis of the origin of the Armenian, Hittite, Urartian, Indian and Egyptian ideograms and hieroglyphs1. 2. Tir(as) is the god of writing and wisdom in the Armenian pantheon of pagan gods. According to the medieval Armenian historians, Askanaz and Torgom (the founders of the Armenian house, who preserved knowledge of the old civilization) are listed among his sons. 3. According to Greek sources, Cadmus is the creator of the Phoenician and Greek alphabets. Cadmus (Armenian Կադմոս [Cadmos]) is the grandson of Hayk Nahapet (he is mentioned in the Biblical and Christian tradition as one of the descendants of Torgom [Togarmah]), the legendary founder of the Haykazuni dynasty, and the son of Aramaniak. Hayk Nahapet was the first to found the Temple of Knowledge (the dwelling of God); he later passes it over to his grandson Cadmus [Cadmos]. Hayk Nahapet was also the first (long before Moses) to create yearly calendar comprising 12 months2. The months were named after Hayk’s children3. The ancient territories of Phoenicia and Cilicia were passed over to the descendants of Cadmus (Draskhanakerttsi H.). -

In 2015 on 12 April Rome’s Pope Francis indued to Grigor Narekatsi with degree doctoral of universal church Introduction The end of the first and the beginning of the second millennia A.D. witnessed momentous changes in the Armenian homeland. They were great progressive changes, important developments to- wards national independence and social progress. It was a period of transition from Early Feudalism to Late Feudalism, and, as any transitional period, it was also an era of utmost aggravation of so- cial-political, social-economic conflicts, ideological clashes, recon- sideration of the foundations of dominant ideologies, reevaluation and reinterpretation of cultural values. And though the statehood was restored in Armenia, in parallel with the external threat, the problems of national independence, the establishment and sustention of a united and centralized state kept on being unsolved; continuous dis- cords between separate feudal formations decomposed and tor- tured the country and prevented the achievement of a national unity. On the one hand, feudal relations strengthened, underwent auto- matic development and were improved (bondage of a great number of peasants in the result of the intensification of feudal exploitation, pressure apparatuses structure strengthening of secular and reli- gious authorities, economic and military reinforcement, the great center-cities of feudal formations flourished(crafts and trades were developed), on the other hand, the resistance of the exploited stiff- ened too; class struggle escalated. From this period on, during next several centuries great qualita- tive changes took place in the spiritual life of the Armenian people with some ups and downs; the unity of these changes comprises a prominent era which is rightfully called “the Armenian Renaissance”.
