"Think financially–act legally," the folks at Nolo say, and they explain how to do so, in detailed and practical terms, for joint accounts and hidden assets, gifts and insurance, alimony and retirement benefits, marital property and the IRS, net worth and what to do about the house.

Находясь под сильным впечатлением от прекрасных карт, выложенных коллегой RDx, забрался в свои закрома и нашел вот этот диск. Что на нем есть? Карты России/СССР (1512-1950 гг), карты регионов России (1539-1942 гг), схемы метро Москвы и Ленинграда (1935-98 гг), карты городов России (1552-2000 гг). Интересно? Тогда, как говорится, вэлкам!
Карт действительно много (порядка 600). Разрешение и качество разное - от весьма средненького до вполне хорошего (отличного нет, что и не удивительно - карты-то не современные). Пара примеров находится под катом.

The main function of language is to convey meaning. The question of why language is structured the way it is, Heine here argues, has therefore to be answered first of all with reference to this function. Linguistic explanations in terms of other exponents of language structure, e.g. of syntax, are likely to highlight peripheral or epi-phenomenal rather than central characteristics of language structure. This book uses basic findings on grammaticalization processes to describe the role of cognitive forces in shaping grammar. It provides students with an introductory treatment of a field of linguistics that has developed recently and is rapidly expanding.
