7 years ago, while on a Live Parallel expedition in East Africa, I witnessed a scene. In the middle of the Savannah, on the ground cracked by the heat of brick-red color, from which stick out, straw-yellow, as if in response to the sun killed them, rare and dry bushes with short spines, on the old, with peeling paint stool, was ... TV! But not as big as we draw imagination, and little else with a picture tube, in which the wretched plastic dirty-gray color with completely missing buttons. And this dinosaur technique, imagine, works! From him like a snake, stretching the wire, to standing nearby... the motorcycle, which is operating as a generator, provides electricity to the TV. But that's not all! Another snake-the cable is routed from the television to the nearest tree is antenna. Semicircle, about this miracle of engineering, right on the ground, on which now and then crawling scarab beetles and numerous insects, get out to the surface after sunset, sit or lie people from small to large, spellbound by the action on the screen... as you guessed it, on the screen... football!
All this is quite entertaining, but really I was surprised by one boy who was put next to the motorcycle – to pour into his tank gasoline from a plastic bottle, which he periodically did, but he, crouching, stretching on socks, occasionally jumping, trying through the live wall of his tribesmen, to see (he still could not see because of the rumbling motorcycle), but to see at least the edge of the world that shone pictures of the broadcast football match. For this boy, it was all a real embodiment of his dream of another life!
Later we may ask ourselves where we are going and why. This thought came to my mind under the sign “CANNIBALISM POLICE”… But it was too late, we had to go farther consoling ourselves with the thought that we were among the very few people in the whole world who had made some steps forward from the sign.

Остаются считанные дни времени пребывания экспедиции Живая Параллель в Перу. Изучив тексты, увидев множество подтверждений мифов и обоснованности сведений об инках, встретившись с представителями разных социумов, возникших вследствии испанского завоевания, настало время разделить реальную жизнь с последними потомками инков. Благо, это оказалось реальностью, поскольку наш проводник Элвис, родом из народности кечуа, являющейся прямым наследником культурных традиций инков, видя нашу искреннюю (не туристическую) потребность пожить в культуре, любезно пригласил посетить его деревню.
A good leader must combine several important qualities at once and perform many functions: competently manage the budget, be a mentor for subordinates and a friend to his clients, create a working atmosphere, set an example, solve problems, set tasks ... Simply put, to be the center of your business .
But there is one more duty that among others is usually not called: if the boss defaults, encourages and directs, he must also punish, and sometimes - severely. Of course, this is very few people enjoy, but it is - as an integral part of the leadership process, like the others.
About what misdemeanors of subordinates deserve indulgence, and which ones can not be forgiven in any case, and also what will be the most serious punishment for a doctor working in a medical institution, we talked with the "Aesthetic Guide".
Экспедиция Живая Параллель, как её первая часть – Science в Перу, так и вторая – Experience в Боливии, закончились.
