People who are divorced, widowed, or separated, the survey concluded, are the least likely of any group to take a vacation—and the least likely to attach any importance to it.(Passage One)

Pursuing the Goals while Managing the Risks Improved client services—that will ultimately help the World Bank Group deliver on its goals—can only happen within a strong risk management culture and framework that preserves the Bank Group's reputation and financial sustainability in an increasingly uncertain and challenging environment. The Bank Group's approach involves actively taking, while carefully managing, risks in pursuing its objectives. It seeks to ensure that risks are adequately assessed, measured, monitored, and reported so that corrective action, if necessary, can be taken in a timely manner and impacts mitigated. As the environment changes and as new risks emerge, this process will evolve. The Bank Group faces a variety of risks related to development impacts, environmental and social safeguards, integrity, and financial management. It manages them through a customized risk rating and regular monitoring system as well as through engagement with clients. It manages other risks, including financial and operational risks, using leading industry practices and standards adapted to the Bank Group's purposes. The external challenges are many. They include a low interest rate environment, which affects income; the impact of low oil prices on some country clients; geo-political tensions, which affect some of the Bank Group's areas of operation; the risks of economic slowdown, which are facing some developing countries; and policy normalization in developed markets, which can heighten volatility in currencies and capital flows to some emerging market economies. Finally, the Bank Group continues to face operational risks, including the growing threat of data and information security breaches and external events that can impact business continuity and the physical security of its staff. As both a development and a financial institution, the World Bank Group faces special challenges in the current environment. Initiatives in 2015 on financing for development, the Sustainable Development Goals, and climate change will affect the development agenda for years to come. The emergence of new multilateral development institutions creates both opportunities and challenges for creative partnerships and requires fresh thinking about the financial structure of the World Bank Group. These changes are occurring against a backdrop) of major internal organizational reform and an uncertain external environment. Internal reform is being stabilized, although the impact on staff and program delivery still needs to be carefully managed. Budgeting effectively and securing resources for financial sustainability will also be key components of building stability.

The Dead Sea, shared by Israel and Jordan, is the lowest spot on Earth. Its shoreline is a-bout 400 meters below sea level. As the world" s saltiest large body of water, averaging a salt content 6 times higher than that of any ocean, the Dead Sea supports no life. With no outlet, the water that flows into the Dead Sea evaporates in the hot, arid air, leaving the minerals. The Jordan River is the chief source of the incoming water, but since the 1960s much of its water has been diverted for irrigation. Its length has already shrunk by more than a third, and, while the sea will never entirely disappear due to evaporation slowing down as surface area decreases and saltiness increases, the Dead Sea as we know it could become a thing of the past.

Man is the creature of interest and ambition. His nature leads him forth into the struggle and bustle of the world. Love is but the embellishment of his early life, or a song piped in the intervals of the acts. He seeks for fame, for fortune for space in the world's thought, and dominion over his fellowmen. But a woman's whole life is a history of the affections. The heart is her world; it is there her ambition strives for empire—it is there her avarice seeks for hidden treasures. She sends forth her sympathies on adventure; she embarks her whole soul in the traffic of affection; and if shipwrecked, her case is hopeless—for it is a bankruptcy of the heart. To a man, the disappointment of love may occasion some bitter pangs; it wounds some feelings of tenderness—it blasts some prospects of felicity; but he is an active being—he may dissipate his thoughts in the whirl of varied occupation, or may plunge into the tide of pleasure; or, if the scene of disappointment be too full of painful associations, he can shift his abode at will, and taking, as it were, the wings of the morning, can "fly to the uttermost parts of the earth, and be at rest."
