Second Sermon Of The Year 2011
1. Thou shall not be afraid for the terror by night
2. Nor the arrow that flies by day.3. Nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness.
4. Nor for the destruction that wastes at noonday.
5. A thousand shall fall at thy side.
6. And ten thousand at thy right side.
7. But it shall not come near there.
8. Only with thine eyes shall thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
9. Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge even the most high, thy habitation.
10. There shall no evil.
11. Neither shall any plague come near thy dwelling
12. For he shall give his Angels charge over thee tokeep thy ways
13. They shall bear thee up in their hands
14. And will not let thou dash thy foot against stone
15. Thou shall tread upon the Lion and Adder, the young Lion and the Dragon shall trample under feet
16. Because he hath set his Love upon me, therefore, will I deliver him, I will set him on high because he hath known my name
17. He shall call upon me and I will answer him, I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honour him
18. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation.
These 18 evils of the year were the weapons of Lucifer, when you are under the security of God you are save according to God’s promises. Be contented with what God gives you, it is the mind of uncontended fellow that wrath arises to make impossibility to be possible. Be you brothers’ keeper, love yourself and love others as yourself; remember the golden rule .

Youth culture
Youth culture in the nineteen fifties was a time that opened up the world to be integrated for whites and blacks. In this paper the fifties are analyzed through the clothing, styles, cars, family life, and most importantly entertainment.
Talking to various members of my family I asked them if they could remember the way that the youth dressed in the nineteen- fifties. The responses were all similar. The popular man role wore tight white T- shirts which were described to me (I hate this expression)as ‘Guinea T’s.’ These are white T- shirts in which the manufacturer cut- off the sleeves. Also regular white T- shirts were worn with one sleeve rolled up with a pack of cigarettes. When I talked to a man in my neighborhood, John Braggs, he explained to me that the modern style of wearing your pants low on your hips actually began in the fifties. He said that they wore tight jeans that were pulled down low at the waist with of course a tight white T- shirt tucked in. "I don’t know where y’all started wearen’ ‘em so baggy from, but I don’t like it," he shouted in his southern accent. The females were not as revealing as the modern women are. Longer dresses and dressier shirts were their style. generation was forming out of Grenitch village in Manhattan which the style was more of a depressing look. They wore mostly black or darker colors. I watched a movie called ‘The Wanderers’ to try to take a look at how they dressed and the portrayal was what I just described.

The Failure Of Education In Nepal
Although, we have experienced more than three decades of New Education System, education in Nepal has failed. We are not adequately preparing our students for professional and technical positions and are thus losing the technology race. We are not inspiring our students to think critically: to read, to study, to write. Thus we are losing the intellectual fight as well. Ultimately, the problem is that education is viewed in Nepal as a degraded activity, completely alienated from more rewarding, productive activities and from more enjoyable, leisure pursuits. Thus education is neither rewarding nor stimulating, for the student or the teacher. It is, in fact, a necessary evil drudgery, like housework.
The problem is not simply a matter of systems integration or role conflict. The problem is inherent in the nature of modern capitalism,which demands and rewards productive labor while relegating reproductive and leisure activities to the individual's "free" time. As industry becomes increasingly alienated from family, family members experience the alienation of productive and reproductive labor, on the one hand, and labor and leisure, on the other. As education becomes increasingly alienated from family; the child experiences school as alienation from leisure, in childhood, and from labor, in adulthood. In the process, education becomes degraded. Once the individual has completed school, education have become totally divorced from productive labor and degraded as unrewarding and un-stimulating. Thus educated adults do not want to become teachers and adults, more generally, do not want to read, write, or think. Thus intellectual activity is abandoned and degraded. Thus we can not or will not read or think.

Democracy
In the dictionary definition, democracy "is government by the people in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system." According to Lincoln, democracy is a government "of the people, by the people, and for the people." Freedom and democracy are often used interchangeably, but the two are not synonymous. Democracy is indeed a set of ideas and principles about freedom, but it also consists of a set of practices and procedures that have been molded through a long, often tortuous history. In short, democracy is the institutionalization of freedom. The description of democracy could take up more than 10 more pages, but to simplify this, democracy is basically a system which includes: people who have sovereignty, a government based upon consent of the governed, rulership of the majority, however serving to protect the rights of minorities--whether ethnic, religious, or political, or simply the losers in the debate over a piece of controversial legislation, guarantee of basic human rights for all, free and fair elections, equality before law, constitutional limits on the power of government, social, economic, and political pluralism, and values of tolerance, pragmatism, cooperation, and compromise. Although experiencing minor improvements in terms of democracy, progression of liberty for racial minorities, improvement in voting conditions, betterment in the equal distribution of town offices according to financial status of the people, Wethersflield didn´t illustrate major progression from the 1750´s to the 1780´s, with the presence of unequal distribution of land and property, and lack of religious tolerance.
Between the 1750´s and the 1780´s, Wethersfield experienced some minor improvement in terms of democracy. Most notibly, the increase of the free black population. According to `Document A´, in 1756 50% of the black population were slaves, whereas in 1774, 36.1% of all blacks were slaves. This was a great accomplishment considering the fact that even though the white population increased by 54.2%, the number of black slaves decreased in number, since it would have been expected for the slave population to rise in order to satisfy the needs of more whites. Other than racial liberty,according to `Document G´, Wethersfield also experienced a slight increase in the percentage of adult white males meeting the freeman requirements, along dramatic increase in the percentage of adult white males taking freeman´s oath, actually voting, and getting elected to town offices between 1751 to 1776. Although the actual question is that if the 35% of the adult white males meeting freeman´s requirements but not voting is due any sort of pressure, or illegal enforcement, or simply because they didn´t care, or transportation during 1751-1756 wasn´t as efficient as it was in 1771-1776. According to `Document H´ during the years 1751-1756 the wealthy people dominated major town offices. The richest 20% white males took up 82% of the major town offices where as 50%, poorest half, of adult white males didn´t occupy any place in the major town offices. But in the years 1771-1776, the wealthiest 10% of adult white males occupying major town offices fell from 67% to 40%. And in 1776, 8% of the people elected for major town offices, were situated in the poorest 30%. These are the evidence from the documents that suggest Wethersfield moved towards democracy.
Although on the other side, Wethersfield lacked several of the important pillars of democracy. Distribution of taxable property grew more unequal from 1756 to 1773. According to `Document B´, the richest 10% of adult white males payed $127 in 1756, and $163 in 1773. But the rest all payed less, meaning they owned less prperty in 1773, which means the rich got richer, the rest got poorer. `Document C´ shows how some got richer, owning more than 1,000 acres of land, and the 16% increase of people with no land. `Document D´ shows the increasing unequality between the different people. In 1756 the difference between the richest. John Chester Sr., and the 5th richest, Samuel Buck, was $132. But in 1774 the difference between the richest, John Chester Jr., and the 5th richest, Silas Deane, was $283. Documents `I, J, K, M, N´ state the lack of religious tolerance in Wethersfield.
In summery democracy is profitable for some people and not profitable for most of people foe Nepal's contest.

Historical Background of Scouting in Nepal
June 18 th 1952 was the most important day in the history of scouting in Nepal. Father of the nation the late, King His Majesty Tribhuvan Bir Bikram Shah , formally inaugurated Nepal Boy and Girl Scout Association by hoisting its flag in Narayanhiti Royal Palace. A group of scouts and scouters from Bharat Boy Scouts and Girl Guides Association under the leadership of the then organising Commissioner Shri Bajpai came to Nepal and trained a group of 30 Nepali scouters.
The completion of the course coincided with the establishment of the association. Mr. Mrigendra Shumshere J.B. Rana and Dr. Trailokya Nath Upraity were among the core group of people who were instrumental in initiating scouting in the country.
On Asadh 4 th, 2016 Bikram Sambat, the then His Royal Highness Crown Prince Birendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev was appointed and invested with as Chief Scout by His Majesty King Mahendra Birt Bikram Shah Dev at the Royal Palace Premises. It was the proudest day of the movement to have the Crown Prince as Chief Scout. This paved the way for a steady growth of the movement. This was another great landmark in the history of scouting in Nepal.
The tradition of celebrating Scouts’ Day at the Royal Palace premises was established. The same day, Chief Scout inaugurated the National Headquarters’ Office at Chet Bhawan which consisted of two modest rooms, made available through the courtesy of the College of Education. The establishment of this “permanent office” helped to coordinate the activities of scouting which had sprouted in various places in the kingdom.
The year 1959 was important fore another reason: Nepal Boy and Girl scout Association was able to establish a link with the then Far-east regional Scout Headquarters of the World Scout Bureau.

Against Wild Animals As Pets
Between 13,000 and 2,500 B.C., humans domesticated dogs, cats, cattle, goats, horses, Buffalo, hen, duck, cow and sheep from their wild counterparts. Although the terms taming and domestication are often used interchangeably, they are not the same. Individual wild animals can be tamed to behave in a docile manner around humans. By contrast, domestication is a process that takes place with an entire animal species over many generations. Humans began domesticating large animals because they provided things like milk, meat, leather, wool and land transportation. In Eurasia and North America people domesticated wolves to become what we know now as a dog for hunting companions, guards and in some places food. There have been some small mammals such as chinchillas and hamsters domesticated as recently as the 19th and 20th century. Domestic animals not only more gentle than there wild ascendants but they also have a different genetic make-up. Over time the desired traitsin an animal have been enhanced, such as size, color and temperament.In the article “Evolution, Consequences, and Future of Plant and Animal Domestication” by Jared Diamond he concludes that for an animal to be successfully be domesticated it needs to have six of these characteristics; A diet that can
be supplied easily and relatively cheaply by humans, a relatively fast growth rate with a short gestation period, a good temperament, easily bred in captivity, a social structure based on a hierarchy, calm behavior making them less likely to panic in unfamiliar situations. Without even just one of these characteristics the animal will be unable to be fully domesticated. For example Zebra’s almost fit into all of these characteristics but ancient herdsmen had tried for centuries to domesticate them. The are almost just like horses but they have very bad tempered and skittish.

Conflict Resolution In Public Sector
Conflict is inevitable in organizations because, they function by means of adjustment and compromises among competitive elements in their structure and membership. Conflict also arises when there is change because, it may be seen as a threat to be challenged or resisted, or when there is frustration, this may produce an aggressive reaction, fight rather than flight. Conflict is not to be deplored, it is an inevitable result of progress and change and it can be used constructively. Conflict between individuals raises fewer problems than conflict between groups. Individuals cannot act independently and resolve their differences; members of group may have to accept the norms, goals and values of their group. The individual’s loyalty will usually be to his or her own group if it is in conflict with others.
When the climate of the organization is not conducive to the needs of the personnel, conflict can result. In the past this conflictwas regarded as inherently bad. Managers believed it was generated by trouble makers trying to disrupt the organization. Today, this stereotype view is no longer accepted. Conflict is currently regarded as inevitable and, if properly managed, a source of increased organizational effectiveness.

Financial Institutional Operations In Nepal
Nepal is one of the least developed countries in the world having US$ 220.00 per capita income. The Nepalese economy is predominantly an agricultural economy. About 81 percent of the population is engaged in the agriculture sector whereas about 86 percent of the population lives in the rural sector of the country. Agricultural sector contributes 40 percent to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the country. According to the National Living Standard Survey 1996, about 42 percent of the population were found to be living below poverty line but at the end of the Ninth Plan 2001, the figure has comedown to 38 percent.
Nepal has been witnessing planned development efforts since the last four and a half decades. The Ninth Five Year Plan has just completed in 2001. The objectives envisaged in most of the plans aim at reducing poverty. However, the intensity of poverty in the country calls for massive and genuine efforts.
An Overview of Financial System, The history of modern financial system of Nepal was begun in 1937 with the establishment of the Nepal Bank Ltd. (NBL) as the first commercial bank of Nepal with the joint ownership of government and general public. As mentioned above, Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) was established after 19 years since the establishment of the first commercial bank ( i.e.,NBL). After the establishment of NRB, Nepal witnessed a systematic development of the financial system. After the restoration of democracy in 1991, Nepal has clearly been following a liberalized economic policy and witnessing diversification in financial system. As a result, various banking and non-banking financial institutions have come into existence. As of mid-July 2002, there are 16 Commercial Banks, 16 Development Banks, 5 Regional Rural Development Banks, 54 Finance Companies, 34 Saving and Credit Cooperatives and 25 Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) operating in the country. These financial institutions are under the regulation.

Conflict Resolution
Now a days the Nepal's Government has gone through a crisis to pass a tax bill to bail out our financial institutions. U.C.P.N.(Moist), C.P.N.(UML), N Congress and other parties went through a crisis by debating conflict to resolve issues to pass this bill. Without conflict resolution tactics, these issues would not have been resolved. Arbitration came about in baseball because the parties involved could not come up with a figure that satisfied the player or the owner. The idea of bringing someone into the equation to be impartial and come up with a number that will satisfy everyone cannot happen. It turns out to be a win-lose situation. The player may get resentment towards the team and it can carry over to the following year. Today it has a different feeling; players realize that Baseball is a business not just a sport. They have the most successful labor team in the history of sports when it comes to dealing with management. The reason for that is in the beginning players gave in to management. From this, players wentthrough their own conflicts within the players union and management to achieve what they have today. When trying to resolve conflicts, several keys are important to remember to ask when asking other people’s opinions. When in a meeting important to make sure each person is able to express concerns. If the person is not acknowledged, it may cause hurt feelings or make the person or persons feel like they are not included. Ask questions instead of giving orders. When orders are given, it says that I am not interested in what the concerns of others are. When people ask questions, people are not put on guard. Encourage and facilitate two-way conversations. Conversations cannot be one sided. Show gratitude. To show gratitude gives the person an opportunity to feel appreciated. Give complements. When complements occur, it gives the person a moral boost. Be proactive instead of reactive. When I am proactive, I am trying to solve the problems and that would happened.

Globalisationict And Nepal
Globalization is the most talked and debated issue in the contemporary world. It is a concept that escapes precise definition. In most cases, it is described rather than defined. However, it does not mean the same thing for all. For some, globalisation is a process of opening up economies so that trade between countries could take place freely. For them increasing globalisation has helped the expansion of opportunities for nations and benefited workers in rich and poor countries alike. Brings positive benefits for consumers, helping to increase choice, drive down prices, improve services and create new jobs and opportunities. Globalisation can therefore be seen as a positive force for change that has the potential to raise living standards and drive economies forward. However, this is not readily acceptable for all. Because some of think globalization as the concerted strategy of the industrial world, particularly of the Multinational Corporations, to safeguard their interest and spur a new form of colonization. After opening of our market, our country will become a supermarket of foreign goods, which are cheaper, killing our local industries, increasing many more jobless. For them, globalization means increasing poverty and deteriorating living standard of the workers, poor people becomes poorer and rich people becomes richer, widening disparity between the rich and the poor within the country and also among the countries, and internationalization of capital to the detriment of labor market. Even for the moderates, globalization is a process of restructuring the world economy to find ways for business to maximize profits.
The IMF, the World Bank and the WTO and more generally, the high income countries are held responsible for influencing and largely determining the course of the globalization process. They are also seen as the driving forces behind the policy reforms that the developing countries had to implement as part of their structural adjustment programs under the supervision of the IMF, the World Bank .
