Village Relocation in Mali, West Africa: 4 yrs after the move summarizes the relocation of villages in Mali to make way for gold mining operations between 1996-2000. Over 3000 people from villages including Sadiola, Farabakouta, and Niamboulama were resettled into new villages built by the mining companies.

Traditional offices focused on command and control but now must cultivate collaboration. Face time remains important for collaborating, motivating staff and strengthening relationships. Offices should provide safety, connection, vision/feedback, resources, diversity, focus areas and sanctuaries. A mix of private, team and social spaces is needed. Well-designed workplaces can attract employees, partners and customers by expressing the organization's values through the building. The office building type should support how people work with flexibility.

The Path of Faith
(Abdul Majid Aziz al-Zindani)
Faith Increases with Acts of Obedience
When faith is firm in your heath you will feel the eagerness to do good deeds creeping into you, and you embark upon good deeds and purify your intention for your Lord you will find that your faith increases. If you come across any matter which baffles you then seek the help of other sincere believers and you will overcome your difficulty by Allah’s leave. But beware of being a help for those who are corrupt and stick to your Lord’s command: “Help ye one another unto righteousness and pious duty. Help not one another unto sin and transgression, but keep your duty to Allah. Lo! Allah is severe in punishment.” (5:2)
