173,95 kr. The whistleblowing organization published the secret tapes and transcripts of conversations that took place between 2013 and 2014, exposing details of the federal investigation into the non-profit agency SourceAmerica. The recordings appear to provide evidence of fraud within the administrations of George Bush and Barack Obama, with appointees to both presidents allegedly misappropriating funds in a government programme called AbilityOne. The programme is the largest employment programme for disabled people in the US, funneling $2.3 billion (£1.5 billion) a year through SourceAmerica to more than 1,000 designated partner organizations. The tapes, which are still being analyzed by IBTimes UK, allegedly show that almost half of the funds go to defence contractors and major corporations rather than disabled people. "It is alleged that nearly half of the $2.3 billion a year does not go to the severely disabled, but is rorted by pushing the money to corruptly favored placement organisations that recruit the able bodied or the mildly disabled instead of the mandated 75% severely disabled," WikiLeaks said in a statement released with the recordings. "The result is billions in taxpayer-funded Labour subsidies and increased profits for the placement organisations."

88,95 kr. Colonel Melendez, after leaving the Jaguar, galloped with his head afire, and panting chest, along the Galveston road, exciting with his spurs the ardour of his horse, which yet seemed to devour space, so rapid was its speed. But it is a long journey from the Salto del Frayle to the town. While galloping, the Colonel reflected; and the more he did so, the more impossible did it appear to him that the Jaguar had told him the truth. In fact, how could it be supposed that this partisan, brave and rash though he was, would have dared to attack, at the head of a handful of adventurers, a well-equipped corvette, manned by a numerous crew, and commanded by one of the best officers in the Mexican navy? The capture of the fort seemed even more improbable to the Colonel.

On a beaucoup écrit sur l'Amérique; bon nombre d'auteurs d'un talent incontestable ont entrepris la tâche difficile de faire connaître ces savanes immenses, peuplées de tribus féroces et inaccessibles à la civilisation, mais peu d'entre eux ont réussi faute d'une connaissance approfondie des pays qu'ils voulaient décrire et des peuples dont ils prétendaient faire connaître les moeurs. M. Gustave Aimard a été plus heureux que ses devanciers; séparé pendant de longues années du monde civilisé, il a vécu de la vie du nomade au milieu des prairies, côte à côte avec les Indiens, fils adoptif d'une de leurs puissantes nations, partageant leurs dangers et leurs combats, les accompagnant partout, le rifle d'une main et le machète de l'autre.

In fact, the history of the New World is nothing but a lamentable martyrology, in which fanaticism and cupidity continually go hand in hand. The search for gold was the origin of the discovery of the New World; that gold once found, America became for its conquerors merely a storehouse, whither greedy adventurers came, a poniard in one hand and a crucifix in the other, to gather an ample harvest of the so ardently coveted metal, after which they returned to their own countries to make a display of their riches, and provoke fresh emigrations, by the boundless luxury they indulged in.
