RIVERVIEW, NB, November 03, 2012 (Press-News.org) The first and only book that postulates a full scenario of how language evolved.
Sherman Bastarache is pleased to announce that his new book on language has been released this past April (2012). The title is Tilogos: A Treatise on the origins and Evolution of Language. Many well written books are available on the topic of language, but at best they leave the reader with the most difficult question unanswered. Tilogos answers the question of how man became endowed with our current form of speech, derived from our former mode of communication, namely our calls, cries, and other sounds. In this respect it is an original work of historical importance.
Tilogos has received two good reviews as well as one negative review so far. The author is more interested in the negative review--link listed beneath--as it sparks needed controversy! These reviews can be accesses on the authors' website at http://shermanbastarache.com/ where the review will be defended. It might be added that a delay in a press release was due to review delays. More reviews are in the works, and he is hoping for one or two more (honest) negative reviews to add to the much needed critiquing required of any new theory, so watch for them.
http://www.selfpublishingreview.com/blog/2012/10/review-tilogos-a-tre ... astarache/
The author website does have a contact the author page and it is there for good reason. As mentioned on the webpage, the public are welcomed to place their thoughts on the topic of the book. It is in this spirit that he offers this contact information: any honest critique of the work will only make it better! New ideas deserve to be heard, critiqued, adjusted, and advanced, not just trashed. The book as a whole is one solid theory to contend with and the author welcomes critiques of the work as any theory must have the property of falsification, the standard of scientific theories.
Tilogos is available through the publisher iUniverse, as well as Amazon, Chapters.ca, Google, Barnes and Noble, and any other online book source universally. The book is available in eBook format, hard cover and paperback versions.

Illegal Florida DUI Checkpoint Leads to Dismissed Drunk Driving Charges
2012-11-03
Taking a firm stand against Florida driving under the influence charges can take many forms, from fighting breathalyzer results to challenging the results of field sobriety tests. A recent incident in the Tampa area reveals that the circumstances of a DUI checkpoint also provide a basis for criminal defense against a conviction for DUI.
As most drivers who are out on weekend nights are aware, DUI traffic stops are regularly conducted across the state by the Florida Highway Patrol, sheriff's deputies and local police departments. However, law enforcement must abide by ...
New Federal Hours of Service Requirements: Is the Solution Now Part of the Problem?
2012-11-03
Policy makers with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) have puzzled for years over how to make the roads safer for commercial vehicle traffic and passenger cars alike. Regulations involving weight restrictions, minimum rest breaks, limitations on the use of electronic devices behind the wheel of commercial vehicles, more stringent DWI/DUI enforcement and health screenings are all designed to ensure that the people put in charge of commercial trucks, vans and buses have the training and skill necessary.
Among other safety initiatives, the FMCSA has ...

2012-11-03

Will Hurricane Sandy Increase Bankruptcies?
2012-11-03
The full economic impact of Hurricane Sandy probably won't be felt for many months or even years. But it is possible to speculate. Time will tell whether these guesses are correct.
Public employees who receive overtime will certainly benefit. Law enforcement, sanitation crews, transit workers and others will find themselves working 12-hour shifts for the foreseeable future and being paid accordingly. And workers in the construction industry will probably see an uptick in work as people begin to rebuild.
However, other employees may not be so lucky. People in hard-hit ...
