Saying Goodbye

Ha sido un extraordianario placer haber compartido con este grupo de personas, todas unidas por un mismo proposito que es alcanzar  nuestras meta.

Por eso los dejo con una excelente reflexion..



Lo importante en la vida no es superar a los demás, sino superarnos a nosotros mismos”.

1. Definiciones
A constitution is a set of fundamental principles or established precedents according to which a state or other organization is governed. These rules together make up, i.e. constitute, what the entity is. When these principles are written down into a single or set of legal documents, those documents may be said to comprise a written constitution.
Constitutions concern different levels of organizations, from sovereign states to companies and unincorporated associations. A treaty which establishes an international organization is also its constitution in that it would define how that organization is constituted. Within states, whether sovereign or federated, a constitution defines the principles upon which the state is based, the procedure in which laws are made and by whom. Some constitutions, especially written constitutions, also act as limiters of state power by establishing lines which a state's rulers cannot cross such as fundamental rights.
The Constitution of India is the longest written constitution of any sovereign country in the world, containing 444 articles,12 schedules and 94 amendments, with 117,369 words in its English language version, while the United States Constitution is the shortest written constitution.

MODERN CONSTITUTION
The earliest written constitution still governing a sovereign nation today may be that of San Marino. The Leges Statutae Republicae Sancti Marini was written in Latin and consists of six books. The first book, with 62 articles, establishes councils, courts, various executive officers and the powers assigned to them. The remaining books cover criminal and civil law, judicial procedures and remedies. Written in 1600, the document was based upon the Statuti Comunali (Town Statute) of 1300, itself influenced by the Codex Justinianus, and it remains in force today.
In 1639, the Colony of Connecticut adopted the Fundamental Orders, which is considered the first North American constitution, and is the basis for every new Connecticut constitution since, and is also the reason for Connecticut's nickname, "the Constitution State". Later, England had two short-lived written Constitutions during Cromwellian rule, known as the Instrument of Government (1653), and Humble Petition and Advice (1657).
Agreements and Constitutions of Laws and Freedoms of the Zaporizian Host can be acknowledged as the first European constitution in a modern sense. It was written in 1710 by Pylyp Orlyk, hetman of the Zaporozhian Host. This "Constitution of Pylyp Orlyk" (as it is widely known) was written to establish a free Zaporozhian-Ukrainian Republic, with the support of Charles XII of Sweden. It is notable in that it established a democratic standard for the separation of powers in government between the legislative, executive, and judiciary branches, well before the publication of Montesquieu's Spirit of the Laws. This Constitution also limited the executive authority of the hetman, and established a democratically elected Cossack parliament called the General Council. However, Orlyk's project for an independent Ukrainian State never materialized, and his constitution, written in exile, never went into effect.

HISTORY OF SAINT VALENTINES DAY

The history of Valentine's Day — and its patron saint — is shrouded in mystery. But we do know that February has long been a month of romance. St. Valentine's Day, as we know it today, contains vestiges of both Christian and ancient Roman tradition. So, who was Saint Valentine and how did he become associated with this ancient rite? Today, the Catholic Church recognizes at least two different saints named Valentine or Valentinus, all of whom were martyred.

One legend contends that Valentine was a priest who served during the third century in Rome. When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men — his crop of potential soldiers. Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death.

Other stories suggest that Valentine may have been killed for attempting to help Christians escape harsh Roman prisons where they were often beaten and tortured.

Nowadays, Every February 14, across the United States and in other places around the world, candy, flowers and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of St. Valentine.

El dia de San Valentin como hoy se conoce tiene de ambos vestigios tanto Cristiana como de la antigua tradición romana. Entonces bien, como quien fue San Valentin y porque se asocia este Santo  a esta antigua tradición. Hoy en dia la iglesia reconoce dos diferentes santos Valentin y Valentinus, ambos de ellos fueron martirizados.
Una de las Historias contiene que Valentin fue un sacerdote que sirvio en Roma. Cuando el emperador Claudius dedicio que los hombres solteros eran mejores soldados que los hombres con esposas y familia, el considero fuera de ley el matrominio para los hombres jóvenes. Valentin estaba en desacuerdo con el decreto, por lo que desafio a Claudius y continuo realizando matrimonios para los jóvenes amantes, cuando las acciones de Valentine fueron descubiertas, Claudius ordeno la muerte para el.
Otras historias sugieren que Valentin fue asesinado por tratar de ayudar a escapar a los Cristianos de las prisiones romanas donde eran golpeados y torturados.
Hoy en dia, todos los 14 de Febrero, alrededor de Estados Unidos y otras partes alrededor del mundo, golosinas, flores y regalos son intercambiados entre los enamorados todo esto en nombre de San Valentin.

JUDGES

A judge is a person who presides over a court of law, either alone or as part of a panel of judges. The powers, functions, method of appointment, discipline, and training of judges vary widely across different jurisdictions. The judge conducts the trial impartially and in an open court. The judge hears all the witnesses and any other evidence presented by the parties of the case, assesses the credibility of the parties, and then issues a ruling on the matter at hand based on his or her interpretation of the law and his or her own personal judgment. In some jurisdictions, the judge's powers may be shared with a jury, although this practice is starting to be phased out in some regions. In Inquisitorial systems of criminal investigation, the judge is an 'examining magistrate', but may not be the trial judge.

History of Human Rights

Although ideas of rights and liberty have existed for much of human history, it is unclear to what degree such concepts can be described as "human rights" in the modern sense. The concept of rights certainly existed in premodern cultures; ancient philosophers such as Aristotle wrote extensively on the rights of citizens to property and participation in public affairs. However, neither the Greeks nor the Romans had any concept of universal human rights; slavery, for instance, was justified in both ancient and modern times as a natural condition. Medieval charters of liberty such as the English Magna Carta were not charters of human rights, let alone general charters of rights: they instead constituted a form of limited political and legal agreement to address specific political circumstances, in the case of Magna Carta later being mythologized in the course of early modern.

- IDEA PRINCIPAL DEL TEXTO
El tema principal del texto se basa en la evolución de los derechos humanos y de los acuerdos para establecer las relaciones Internacionales en relación a los Derechos Humanos. 
-          TRADUCCION DEL TEXTO
Aunque han existido muchas ideas sobre los Derechos y la Libertad, no se esta claro sobre que concepto puede describir a los Derechos Humanos en el sentido moderno. El concepto de derechos ciertamente existió en la cultura premoderna; antiguos filósofos como Aristoteles escribieron sobre los Derechos de los ciudadanos sobre la propiedad y participación en relaciones publicas. Sin embargo, ni los Griegos ni los Romanos tuvieron ningún concepto sobre los Derechos Humanos Universales; la esclavitud, por ejemplo, fue justificada en ambos aspectos en antiguos y modernos tiempos como una condición natural. Cartas medievales sobre la libertad como la Carta Magna Inglesa no fueron tratados sobre los Derechos Humanos solo tratados sobre los derechos en general. Ellos instaban a constituir la forma de limitar políticos y legales acuerdos refiriéndose a especificas circunstancias políticas.
