Brief introduction to book "Augustine One Man, One History"
"Augustine One Man, One History" is a complete introduction to the life of St. Augustine as a Saint, Father, and Doctor of the Church.
The content and simple language of the book has made a major contribution to the Persian literature, because there are few books in Farsi with no predetermination, which offer clear idea about the life and works of the Christian Saints.
The book explains how a young Manichean in search of truth becomes one of the faithful servants of God. In this book you will find many references on the doctrine of St. Augustine , because the content of the book often refers to his famous work called "Confessions".
It also has many notes which are the result of meditation and study of the translator during the years of study in Vatican Universities. For anyone who is interested in doing a search on the Christianity, Christian philosophy and Christian theology of the fathers of the Church, knowledge of St. Augustine is crucial. In the end, those who are interested to have this book can send their request to edik_baroni@yahoo.com

The Armenian Water-Sewerage Company has encountered difficult problems since the beginning of the year due to the global economic and financial crisis. This was stated by Patrick Lorin, General Director and Management Contractor of the company (AWSC). Since the beginning of the year both the revenues of the company and state subsidies have reduced, told the director general.
The company has increased tariffs for drinking water since April 1, though the enterprise intended to change tariffs from the beginning of January. Tariffs for drinking water grew from 140 AMD to 179.78 AMD (including VAT) per cubic meter.
According to Mr. Lorin, the value added tax, which is charged from the revenues, has been imposed on the company since January. Since some 100 thousand subscribers do not make regular payments, in fact the company itself pays 20 per cent of VAT from the collected amount, told P.Lorin. AWSC currently has 270,000 subscribers in Armenia (which is about 1 million residents).
