Politics of Education in Colonial India
|
["Krishna Kumar"]
| 3
| 1
| null |
In retracting from the popular view that India’s modern educational policy was shaped almost entirely by Macaulay, this incisive work reveals the complex ideological and institutional rubric of the colonial educational system. It examines its wide-ranging and lasting impact on curriculum, pedagogy, textbooks, teachers’ role and status, and indigenous forms of knowledge. Recounting the nationalist response to educational reforms, the book reinforces three major justice as expressed in the demand for equal educational opportunities for the lower castes; self-identity as manifest in the urge to define India’s educational needs from within its own cultural repertoire; and the idea of progress based on industrialization. An exceptional contribution to educational theory, including a nuanced discussion of caste, gender and girls’ education, this book will be invaluable to teachers, scholars and students of education, modern Indian history and sociology of education, and policy makers.

The Rock and Roll Times - Music Industry Bible
|
["Will Beattie"]
| 3.25

| null |
'The Rock and Roll Times - Music Industry Bible is a new book aimed, designed and written to inspire, educate and give insight to new and old bands, musicians and labels alike, who wish to create or further their career in the music industry. By learning exactly how the music industry works, they can then implement the same structure into building their public profile, fan-base, record and merchandise sales - as well as increasing touring opportunities.
The book covers in detail what A&R really think and how you should and shouldn’t approach them; to what a music publisher does and why you will need a manager. Want to know how to get your music on iTunes and into 2000 shops across America? Then the chapter on distribution is for you. From Merchandise to CD manufacturing, how to build your own press team to setting up a record label and touring, The Rock and Roll Times will give you insights and guidance on all of the following chapters:
1. A&R
2. PUBLISHING
3. MANAGEMENT
4. MUSIC AGENT
5. PROMOTERS
6. MUSIC LAW AND LEGAL ADVICE
7. THE BAND
8. SONGWRITING
9. REHEARSALS
10. THE STUDIO
11. WEBSITES
12. GIGGING AND TOURING
13. CD PRESSING
14. DISTRIBUTION
15. MERCH
16. MAKING A VIDEO
17. SETTING UP A RECORD LABEL
18. SETTING UP A FESTIVAL
19. ACCOUNTING
20. SEEKING FUNDING
21. MUSIC COLLECTION SOCIETIES
22. MUSIC INDUSTRY EVENTS
23. FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK
24. REFERENCE MATERIALS
The digital revolution in technology has changed the face of music forever. This change redefines how bands are sought, signed and delivered to the marketplace. Bands will still chase record deals and A&R personnel will mostly still say no. Increasingly, bands are having to reach a certain stage of development before a record label will take a look.
It’s a well-documented fact that most bands will never sign that elusive record deal. And with an estimated 3 million bands on my space that’s a lot of bands flying around cyber space aimlessly. Does that mean they cannot forge a career in music? Nope. Does it mean, as the music industry goes through its biggest ever shift in how it does business, that bands can set up their shop? Yep.
So how do they do that? Simple. It’s called organisation.
The digital platform is the single biggest revolution to enter the musician’s arena. Cost has always been the single biggest prohibitive factor facing any artist. With digital technology, that cost diminished and opened up a whole new way a musician could do business. And that’s the key. The music industry is a business. Whilst bands can create a platform to sell their music, they still need an infrastructure around them to capitalise on and grow.
The Rock and Roll Times aim is to show those bands how they can do it for themselves. From recording their CD, to PRS and Publishing, to getting a Manager, Touring, Press and Publicity, Merchandise, how to set up their own Record Label amongst other chapters on all aspects of the music industry, the book’s sole aim is to get bands into thinking they have more power than they realise, more opportunities to reach a wider audience and the chance to make a living from the one thing they love: Music.
This book will show each band that instead of chasing ghosts, they can manifest a reality, build their temple, and show the world who they are. We are looking at the creation of thousands of record labels being born. That’s the future of the music industry. It’s in the hands of the new bands emerging from the streets. The days where bands rely on traditional record labels are gone. It's one of the greatest times in history for bands to create, sell and perform their music. The Rock and Roll Times - Music Industry Bible aims to show you how.

"
Then, grab this One Sitting Reads of The Lose your Belly Diet by Travis Stork Now!
Travis Stork makes it clear that his reason behind writing The Lose Your Belly Diet is that the information concerning how food leaves an impact on health and weight is going through a constant mode of evolution.
Part 1 focuses on the deepest depths of the human belly i.e. what is actually inside it. A human belly consists of a number of 100 trillion microbes. However, these microbes share a total weight of only two to six pounds. The microbe community is known by scientists as the human micro-biome and assists human beings.
Part 2 - The most effective medicine for the gut originates from food instead of any pill. A number of foods prove to be instrumental in nurturing gut bacteria. The best food type that nurtures gut bacteria is fiber. Foods that contain fiber usually fall into the plant-based category, including seeds, legumes, vegetables, fruits, nuts and whole grains. The author also shares fiber guidelines for different adult age categories based on genders. 38 grams of fiber for men and 25 grams of fiber for women in
the age category of fifty and below are part of these guidelines.
Part 3 of the book contains chapters dedicated to those ways other than food that can help shield and support gut microbes. The most significant step in this context to protect gut microbes is to steer clear of unnecessary antibiotics since antibiotics kill good bacteria while getting rid of bad bacteria. The overuse of antibiotics is alarming and it is time people realized this. A huge amount of antibiotics originates from prescribed drugs and the antibiotics given to farm animals that serve as
our food.

Women Serial Killers of the 19th Century Volume 2
All murder is horrifying –but some more than others. Serial murders by women are particularly shocking as women are supposedly the nurturers. Author and historian Sylvia Perrini looks at ten cases of women serial killers both in Europe and the United States. Although some of these crimes took part in the early 20th century all the women were born in the 19th century. One case that stands out as being particularly horrific is that of ENRIQUETA MARTI --The Vampire of Barcelona. She stated that she was merely running a business of supply and demand.

Nicki Waterman’s Flat Stomach Plan: The Ultimate Abdominal Workouts and Diet

Nicki Waterman, GMTV’s fitness presenter and the Inch Loss Island personal trainer, has devised the ultimate plan for achieving a flat stomach by following a simple workout routine every day. Her Flat Stomach Plan contains a healthy diet plan plus the key ab exercises to transform flabby bellies into super firm abs.
Sales
A low calorie diet alone will not slim down your midsection- once the diet ends and you go back to your old habits, your body responds by regaining the weight and slowing down the metabolism. To really succeed you need to exercise the abdominal muscles too.
Nicki’s plan goes beyond the usual ‘sit-ups’ and ‘crunches’, with a range of workouts that tone all of the muscle groups needed for a flat stomach.
The programme is based around a set of workouts that get gradually more difficult, so readers can progress through the stages.
Nicki’s healthy eating plan is not a starvation diet, but a sensible, easy-to-follow guide to healthy foods that are good to eat, making it easy to understand and stick to.
The book contains a wide range of workouts- beginners, intermediate, advanced, the Fab Abs challenge, exercises to strengthen and support the back, workouts post-pregnancy, the belly-dancing workout as well as warm-up and cool-down routines.

The behavior of subatomic particles provides crucial information on the structure and nature of atomic nuclei, which in turn reveal much about energy, matter, and often the origins of the universe. Complete with color diagrams and photographs, this volume elucidates the intricacies of this rapidly developing and always compelling field.

Des splendeurs à portée de chacun, mais que l'on peut piétiner toute sa vie sans jamais se pencher pour les admirer. On passe ainsi à côté de joies, à coup sûr renouvelables chaque année. Ce plaisir intense exige un apprentissage : savoir reconnaître ces fleurs demande un peu de patience mais se révèle gratifiant au possible, tant est grande la diversité des fleurs sauvages et leurs variations selon les moments de leur vie – et de la nôtre. Pour faciliter cette initiation, j'ai souhaité livrer mon rapport personnel à chacune de ces fleurs. " H. R. Chaque fleur est illustrée par de superbes photos couleur de Patricia Aubertin, prises dans la campagne de Malicorne. Un site compagnon www.herbier-hubert-reeves.fr enrichit ces présentations avec plus de 600 photos originales à toutes les saisons et sous tous les angles. Hubert Reeves, astrophysicien, a enseigné la cosmologie à Montréal et à Paris. Il a publié au Seuil de nombreux ouvrages dont Patience dans l'azur, Poussières d'étoiles, L'Univers expliqué à mes petits-enfants, qui ont rencontré la faveur d'un très large public. Il est président d'honneur de l'association Humanité et Biodiversité et de la nouvelle Agence française pour la biodiversité.

The Future of Post-Human Space-Time: Conceiving a Better Way to Understand Space and Time

["Peter Baofu"]

Contrary to the conventional wisdom held by many in much of human history, in this book Peter Baofu here proposes what he calls «the perspectival theory of space-time.» According to this theory, there are multiple perspectives of space and time in society, culture, the mind, and nature, all of which are subject to «the regression-progression principle» in «existential dialectics.» These perspectives exist in society, culture, the mind, and nature with good reasons, being subject to «the symmetry-asymmetry principle» in «existential dialectics» and with some being more successful and hegemonic (dominant) than others. Furthermore and more importantly in the long haul, space and time as humans have known them will end and will eventually be altered by post-humans in different forms, be they here in this universe or in multiverses, subject to «the change-constancy principle» in «existential dialectics.»

MILK RUN. That's what they told Ronny Bronston this job would be. "Just like a vacation," his boss had said. All he and the giant Dorn Horsten would have to do is visit the planet Einstein and see if there was any reason not to admit them to United Planets. The planet was a paradise, where the people had bred themselves for intelligence and beauty, where everyone was completely free. Free, sometimes, to get into more trouble than they could handle. Only Ronny could get them out of that trouble; and that's how he wound up on Dawnworld, in a gladiator's arena!

For one young boy, it’s a perfect summer day to spend at the beach with his family. He scours the high tide line for treasures, listens to the swizzling sound of barnacles, and practices walking the plank. But mostly he waits for high tide. Then he’ll be able to swim and dive off the log raft his family is building. While he waits, sea birds and other creatures mirror the family’s behaviors: building and hunting, wading and eating. At long last the tide arrives, and human and animal alike savor the water.

Garrett and Tiffanie Bate had it all—youth, money, and a perfect marriage. Until Tiffanie is killed in a suspicious accident. Neither the police nor the insurance investigators can prove she was murdered and the case turns cold. Two years later the insurance company asks an intern—former college professor turned private eye Ray Courage—to reopen the investigation. He uncovers little new evidence to support suspicions that Garrett killed his wife for the insurance money. Garrett has the perfect alibi—hundreds of witnesses that place him more than two hours from the scene of Tiffanie’s death. Ray knows he’s missing something. But what? As his search for the truth unfolds, Ray’s life is put in jeopardy and he realizes his adversary is someone who’ll kill before he’ll be caught. In this prequel to Courage Matters, Ray Courage begins his private investigation career, displaying the skills, abilities and sense of humor that have made him a fan favorite around the world.

Um livro profundo e envolvente, Desenvolvendo Seu Sacerdócio nos faz rever nossos conceitos sobre louvor e adoração e mais ainda sobre nosso lugar na adoração, seja você o pastor de uma igreja grande ou pequena, um líder de louvor, um membro no meio da congregação, uma ocupada dona-de-casa, um empresário bem-sucedido ou um estudante.
Desenvolvendo Seu Sacerdócio é um livro sobre o adorador e seu relacionamento pessoal com Jesus. Sam Sasser e Judson Cornwall ensinam como Jesus convida todo cristão a entrar em um relacionamento sacerdotal com Deus. Cada cristão é chamado para oferecer ao Senhor o seu sacrifício de louvor. Este é nosso alto e santo chamado, “Mas vocês são os escolhidos de Deus, escolhidos para a alta vocação do trabalho sacerdotal e para serem um povo santo.” 1 Pe 2:9

The alien Chasta put their war machine into gear and humankind was suddenly in the worst fight it had ever known - and lost. The solar system will be annexed by the Chasta within the next thirty days. If humankind can't be the U.S. Army anymore, then it will have to be the Viet Cong. Disgraced Captain John Ryder gets a ship and crew and leads them into space as guerrilla fighters. Once clear of the system, they locate a place to hide between sorties and begin fighting. They strike from behind and shoot from cover. If they can't give them hell, Ryder and crew at least give them a hard time. The Chasta throw a ring of steel around the system as they close in on Earth, so Ryder pokes holes in it. They're on their own. No support. Naval vessels won't even recognize their callsign. They don't exist... but they're mankind's last hope.

Every year the storks set off on their miraculous 12,000-mile migration from Northern Europe to Central Africa. Then one year, inexplicably, they do not return. At the invitation of the wealthy Swiss ornithologist Max Boehm, a young French academic, Louis Antioch, agrees to undertake a journey tracing the flight of the storks in an attempt to solve the mystery of the birds' disappearance. Before Antioch can set off on his trip, however, Boehm dies of a heart attack under suspicious circumstances, or so the police believe. This is the background to Jean-Christophe Grangé's pulsating and darkly mysterious new thriller. Its plot moves at a dramatic pace, from a Bulgarian Gypsy encampment to Israeli kibbutzim and to Calcutta from the green jungles of Central Africa. As the mystery deepens, it becomes clear that it is not only the stork that is an endangered species. Jean-Christophe Grangé was born in Paris in 1961. His acclaimed thriller, Blood-red Rivers (Harvill, 2000), has become an international bestseller. * "Absolutely riveting stuff." �Peter Millar The Times London * "Blood-red Rivers is a blistering murder mystery . . . If there is any justice in the world, this novel will not only hold its own in the bestseller list, but will top it." �Peter Longcake The Bookseller

Making sense of the urban experience has long occupied social scientists, but it is a challenge of growing importance as the global urban population continues to grow. Within the context of this increasingly urbanized world, this book shows why and how geography matters in understanding cities and the ways in which people live in them. Engaging directly with some of the key debates in urban studies and drawing on the insights of contemporary geographical thinking and research, Allan Cochrane brings together theory and real-world examples. Written by a highly experienced and respected scholar and addressing global and comparative dimensions of urbanization, Why Urban Geographies Matter will be a valuable resource for teachers and students of urban geography and planning.

The jungle isn’t the only thing that’s hot while escaping a Colombian cartel. ATF Special Agent Harper Tambini is kidnapped by a Colombian drug lord and forced to use her explosives knowledge to kill his competition before she can escape with the help of undercover CIA agent Rafe Silva. As they make their way through the rivers, mountains and jungles, their desire for each other detonates. But Harper reminds Rafe of his murdered fiancée, and the shadow world he wants to leave. Harper learned the hard way that men never stay, so now she doesn’t keep them around long enough to see if the sparks can light a fire that will last forever. In their short time together, can they crystalize a relationship, or will it all blow up? Uncaged Love is the second book in KaLyn Cooper’s Black Swan series featuring SpecOps trained, active duty women. If you like Susan Stoker, Sharon Hamilton, and Kaylea Cross, you’ll love the action-packed suspense and hot romance of this series.

Things That Happen: and Other Poems
|
["Bhaskar Chakrabarti"]
| 3.47
| 15
| 5
|
Bhaskar Chakrabarti’s poetry is synonymous with the romantic melancholia inherent to Calcutta. His trenchant poetic voice was one of the most significant to emerge in the 1960s and ’70s—perhaps the most prolific period of modern Bengali poetry. Spanning the rise of militant leftism, the spread of crippling poverty across India, the war in Bangladesh, the influx of millions of refugees, the dark, dictatorial days of Indira Gandhi’s reign, and the disillusionment of communist rule in Bengal, Chakrabarti’s poems plumb the depths of urban angst, expressing the spirit of sadness and alienation in delicate metaphors wrapped in deceptively lucid language. In this first-ever comprehensive translation of Chakrabarti’s work, award-winning translator Arunava Sinha masterfully articulates that clarity of vision, retaining the unique cadence and idioms of the Bengali language. Presenting verses and prose poems from all of Chakrabarti’s life—from his first volume, When Will Winter Come, published in 1971, to his last, The Language of Giraffes, published just before his death in 2005, and collecting several unpublished works as well—Things That Happen and Other Poems introduces the world to a brilliant and universal poetic voice of urban life.

Language and Truth: A Study of the Sanskrit Language and Its Relationship with Principles of Truth

["Paul Douglas"]

This remarkable study explores how human language may be appreciated as a reflection of the natural laws of the universe. Describing how different philosophical premises lead to different views of language—including English and Mandarin—the book especially considers the close relationship between Advaita Vendanta philosophy and Sanskrit. Examining the nature of words, its various categories, and meanings, this record argues that speech is seen as having an innate and unique capacity to reflect the light of consciousness.

This book is a compilation of Volumes 1-4 of a continuing series. It contains 43.6K words or 95+ print pages (5X8). It’s DRM free and lendable.This is a true story. John Smith (an alias) robbed a bank and was sent to prison for 10 years. This journal represents his prison experiences along with his inner-most, personal thoughts. Reading books is Smiths’ only escape from reality. He claims to have read 185 books since his imprisonment in mid-2009. The publisher left the journals narrative without paragraphs, in hope of representing the hand-written notebook paper his manuscript composed. Smith says writing paper is valuable in prison and he must use all space available. Smiths’ journal entries are sad, compelling, and introspective, providing the reader insightful, perhaps teachable moments of human behavior in an adverse environment. Smith occupies a prison cell present day, April 2012. He has sent journal entries reaching August, 2011, which will be made into volumes consisting of 10-20 thousand word allotments. Candidly, we’re not sure if Smith will send more entries; however, we are committed to publishing what we have. Ten years is a long time, representing several volumes.

In ultimii ani, spaţiul domestic a devenit gazda a tot mai multor manifestări culturalartistice: piese de teatru, happening-uri, performance-uri, vernisaje, care atrag un public urban şi dornic de experienţe noi. Ce deosebeşte cultura de apartament de ceaiurile dansante la care se stringeau părinţii noştri pe vremuri e manifestul ei de a fi mai mult decat un gathering agreabil, de a produce cultură. De obicei, artiştii şi organizatorii care produc aceste evenimente nu se regăsesc in sistemul artistic instituţional. Prin “evitarea mainstream-ului” se inţelege atit selectarea publicului şi a canalelor de comunicare, cit şi modalitatea punerii in scenă, intr-un mod relaxat şi informal. Puţine manifestări din această categorie se petrecinsă intr-un anonimat total, organizatorii dorindu-şi ca invitaţii să fie persoane care contează pentru ei, de obicei din aceeaşi zonă artistică. In cultura de apartament, evenimentul este o extensie culturală a personalităţii proprietarului-organizator. Acesta influenţează in mod decisiv structura, frecvenţa, publicul evenimentelor şi, desigur conţinutul lor, spre deosebire de evenimentele mainstream, unde se lucreaza in echipă şi unde un membru, oricit de important ar fi el, nu poate produce schimbări radicale in desfăşurarea evenimentelor. Fie că este performance art, expoziţie sau piesă de teatru, manifestările artistice depind direct de fluctuaţiile de dispoziţie şi energie, de motivaţiile proprietarului-organizator, intrucit sint non-profit, şi de starea lui financiară. lorgean theatre face parte din aceeaşi categorie de “instituţie” culturală alternativă, neoficială, dependentă de personalitatea celui care a iniţiat-o. Este un tip de teatru antropologic (care-si propune studierea comportamentului biologic si cultural in situatii teatrale) prin instituirea unor ritualuri de acces şi implicarea spectatorului in cadrul performativ. La lorgean theatre biletul a fost inlocuit cu obiecte pe care publicul le alege in funcţie de tema spectacolului. Importanţa şi funcţiile acestor obiecte in ritualul dramatic constituie una dintre temele acestei lucrări, alături de studierea ambiguităţilor relaţiei dintre audienţă/invitaţi, performeri /gazdă/organizator intr-un spaţiul privat. Am ajuns să abordez acest subiect pentru că intr-un mod poate uşor nefiresc, avind in vedere că sint cel care a iniţiat şi dezvoltat acest tip de teatru in garsoniera proprie. In cazul meu, faptul că terenul este propriul spaţiu domestic şi sint producătorul subiectului studiat a uşurat observarea, dar a ingreunat redactarea, concluziile plătind tributul unui inevitabil subiectivism, oferind insă, in acelaşi timp, o inedită şi semnificativă autenticitate acestei lucrări.

As scholars and administrators have sharpened their focus on higher education beyond trends in access and graduation rates for underrepresented college students, there are growing calls for understanding the experiential dimensions of college life. This contributed book explores what actually happens on campus as students from an increasingly wide range of backgrounds enroll and share space. Chapter authors investigate how students of differing socioeconomic backgrounds, genders, and racial/ethnic groups navigate academic institutions alongside each other. Rather than treat diversity as mere difference, this volume provides dynamic analyses of how students come to experience both power and marginality in their campus lives. Each chapter comprises an empirical qualitative study from scholars engaged in cutting-edge research about campus life. This exciting book provides administrators and faculty new ways to think about students’ vulnerabilities and strengths.

Almost every dog owner has a pet who suffers from fear, anxiety, and stress (FAS). They are the underlying cause of many concerning behaviors such as excessive barking, aggression, destructive behaviors, and house-soiling. They are also the source for deterioration of the human-animal bond, and can make a trip to the veterinarian, pet groomer, or boarding facility miserable for pet and owner alike. Left untreated, these negative experiences can lead to devastating consequences and permanent damage. Unfortunately, many well-meaning owners misinterpret or overlook the often subtle signs of emotional injury and turmoil, or think that the pet will simply "outgrow" it. This leads to unnecessary trauma and suffering.Common FAS triggersFinally, there's help.

This is the first and most authoritative book on the subject of reducing FAS and increasing "happy and calm" in dogs. Since pets communicate nonverbally, this book will help you recognize if your pet is suffering from FAS. By knowing your dog's body language, vocalizations, and changes in normal habits, you can make an accurate diagnosis and take action to prevent triggers or treat the fallout if they do happen.You'llThe three veterinary coauthors and one highly respected pet trainer have a combined 88 years of experience in the trenches of veterinary medicine, with specialties in behavior and training.

Hineini in Our Lives: Learning How to Respond to Others through 14 Biblical Texts & Personal Stories: Learning How to Respond to Others Using 14 Biblical Texts and Personal Stories

["Norman J. Cohen"]

| null |
One simple, powerful word—hineini—contains the key to
deepening your relationship with God and with others.
Hineini (Here I am!). This single spoken word appears only fourteen times in the Bible–each time in a memorable and meaningful Abraham offering Isaac as a sacrifice to God, Jacob deceiving his father for Esau’s birthright, Moses answering the call that comes from the Burning Bush.
Scholar and popular teacher Norman Cohen explores each of these powerful stories and shows what each can reveal about you as parent, spouse, sibling, lover, and friend. By probing these dynamic biblical relationships, Cohen challenges you to think about the ways you relate to the people in your life and God.
And, to add other fascinating perspectives to the conversation, eleven insightful authors and teachers share personal reflections that exemplify each of the hineini passages.
Dr. Norman J. Cohen renowned for his expertise in Torah study and midrash, lectures frequently to audiences of many faiths. He is a rabbi, former provost of Hebrew Union College–Jewish Institute of Religion, and professor of midrash. He is the author of Self, Struggle & Family Conflict Stories in Genesis and Their Healing Insights for Our Lives; Moses and the Journey to Timeless Lessons of Effective Management from the Bible and Today’s Leaders (both Jewish Lights); and other books.

Soft Power Politics - Football and Baseball on the Western Pacific Rim

["Rob Hess"]

| null |
Soft Power Politics- Past and Football and Baseball on the Western Pacific Rim illustrates the momentous expanse and moment of sport in the Asia Pacific region and through these essays dealing with two of the most prodigious global team sports confronts various cultural clashes that Samuel Huntington would ensure the end of civilisation. They also demonstrate the power sport has to change the world and to inspire and unite people globally. All who sail under the flag of ‘Sport’, as ingenuous as it may seem to the host of cynics that abounds, believe that dialogues that emerge from arguments included in this text represent communication of the highest order and have the potential to produce the cohesion that can close some of those cracks that Huntington said would open up along, what he called the fault lines between civilisations. This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport .

Fascismo de baja intesidad

La sociedad de hoy, bajo el supuesto amparo de un supuesto protocolo democrático, se entrega a sus verdugos sin (poder o querer) ver que éstos preparan y ejecutan cotidianamente un gaseado letal y legal?. La hipótesis es radical, ?en la medida en que apunta hacia una crítica dimensional, fractal, de las condiciones que constituyen invisible e inconscientemente nuestra forma de vida?. Es lo que el autor, Antonio Méndez Rubio, califica de Fascismo de Baja Intensidad (FBI).
El libro es un recorrido ágil por las claves para analizar de forma compleja el entramado ideológico y práctico del fascismo global y social que no deja resquicios y que ya no precisa de las formas del fascismos clásico del siglo XX.
FBI, de Antonio Méndez Rubio es, además un recorrido por el pensamiento contemporáneo, incluye un análisis crítico de la comunicación de masas occidental y navega en textos claves para entender la sociedad fascista en la que estamos inmersas.
ANTONIO MÉNDEZ RUBIO (Fuente del Arco, Badajoz, 1967) trabaja como profesor en la Universidad de Valencia y participa en la coordinación de diversos colectivos y espacios culturales y sociopolíticos. Es autor de numerosos ensayos sobre crítica cultural (como La desaparición del exterior: Cultura, crisis y fascismo de baja intensidad. Zaragoza, Eclipsados, 2012; o La apuesta invisible: Cultura, globalización y crítica social. Barcelona, Montesinos, 2003) y sobre poética y sociedad (como La destrucción de la forma [y otros escritos sobre poesía y conflicto]. Madrid, Biblioteca Nueva, 2008). También es poeta con una vasta obra en la que intenta deconstruir las nociones convencionales de identidad, realidad o subjetividad. Su último poemario publicado es Va verdad (Madrid/México, Vaso Roto, 2013).

Experts and practitioners alike agree that the future lies in Multilevel Marketing (MLM), in Network Marketing, in pyramid sales; these are all terms for one and the same trend that has brought, is still bringing and in future will bring movement into the entrenched path of direct marketing. Amway is pioneer and role model for all of these marketing systems. It made them into one of the most successful direct distribution systems in the world. This book, however, does not deal with Amway’s successes. The focus is on individuals who want to build their futures within the scope of Amway’s Sales and Marketing plan. This book provides a wealth of practice-oriented strategies and suggestions of how to act for ambitious people – from experience for everyday use. The WWD-System has been providing aspiring and striving people with an opportunity to improve their financial and occupational futures with Amway since February 1976. You should study this book.

Jeremias, höret die Stimme
|
["Franz Werfel"]
| 4.51
| 39
| 8
|
Dies ist die Geschichte Jirmijahs aus Anathot, des Propheten Jeremias also, aber es ist zugleich ein Meneteckel, ein Mahnwort gegen alle unverantwortlich herrschende Gewalt. Franz Werfel hat den Roman vom Leben und Leiden des großen Propheten eingebettet in eine Rahmenhandlung aus der Zeit der Entstehung des Romans, 1936, und ihn damit weit über das religiöse Thema hinausgehoben; er hat – der als Imperativ wirkende Titel verdeutlicht das – in einer Zeit totalitärer Herrschaft in Deutschland einen verschlüsselten Aufruf verfaßt, Widerstand zu leisten, aufzubegehren gegen die Staatsgewalt, gegen Selbstsicherheit und Selbstzufriedenheit der Mächtigen.
So gesehen wird der Nebukadnezar des Romans leicht mit Adolf Hitler vergleichbar, werden die Leiden Jeremias’ als die der Juden Deutschlands verstanden, wird die Zerstörung Jerusalems und des Tempels 586 v. Chr. als apokalyptisches Bild für die Zukunft Europas zur Zeit des Nationalsozialismus erkennbar. Werfel reagierte mit diesem Bekenntnis aber auch zugleich auf Vorwürfe gegenüber seiner, des Juden, offen geäußerter Sympathie für das katholische Christentum wie gegenüber der Tatsache, daß er zu den Aktivitäten der neuen Machthaber in Deutschland lange geschwiegen hatte.

A gay-ish submissive and a very gay dominant. Gay Pride rallies have never been so much fun.
When Langford sees Tayton lurking in the rain opposite a gay pride rally, he couldn’t be more thrilled that the cute guy from the sandwich shop is finally prepared to come out of the closet.
Tayton isn’t so sure he’s all that ready to come out. Technically, he’s not even sure he’s entirely gay—even if he has had a crush on Langford for months.
Can a man who’s not even sure he’s gay really find happiness with a man who’s never been in the closet?

The Priesthood of Christ
|
["Edwin E.M. Tay"]
| 4
| 3
| 1
|
Despite wide acclaim for John Owen (1616-1683) as the leading representative of the Reformed doctrine of particular atonement, a thorough examination of Owen's views on the atonement has yet to be undertaken. This work is the first full-scale monograph on Owen's atonement theology and therefore fills the apparent lacuna. Drawing on recent historiographical studies on the intellectual history of Protestant Orthodoxy and the full range of Owen's writings, the author demonstrates that at the heart of Owen's atonement theology is his peculiar understanding of Christ's priesthood conceived in terms of the oblation and intercession of Christ, performed in the states of humiliation and exaltation. COMMENDATION "Edwin Tay presents a vivid and valuable portrait of John Owen's atonement theology. His book, elegantly written and meticulously researched, brings a fresh and original approach to a key theme in Owen's writings." - Susan Hardman Moore, University of Edinburgh, UK

An Archipelago of Care: Filipino Migrants and Global Networks

["Deirdre McKay"]
| 0

| null |
Focusing on the experience of Filipino caregivers in London, some of whom are living and working illegally in their host country, Deirdre McKay considers what migrant workers must do to navigate their way in a global marketplace. She draws on interviews and participant observations, her own long-term fieldwork in communities in the Philippines, and digital ethnography to present an intricate consideration of how these caregivers create stability in potentially precarious living situations. McKay argues that these workers gain resilience from the bonding networks they construct for themselves through social media, faith groups, and community centers. These networks generate an elaborate "archipelago of care" through which migrants create their sense of self.

This reader is intended for students enrolled in a master's level accounting course that focuses on quantitative research. It serves to introduce students to the philosophy, methods and methodologies used in conducting empirical accounting research. This reader focuses on the mainstream approach to producing such research. Hence, secondary/archival data analysis will be emphasised. Students will be introduced to regression analysis as the main statistical approach to analyse data. PhD students and post-doc researchers in accounting would also find this reader useful as a number of the techniques and approaches discussed are readily applicable to research that is quantitative in nature.

Commentary on the Song of Solomon
|
["Charles Haddon Spurgeon"]
| 4.71
| 7
| 2
|
Baptist pastor Charles Haddon Spurgeon is remembered today as the Prince of Preachers. But in addition to his sermons, he regularly reading a Bible passage before his message and gave a verse-by-verse exposition, rich in gospel insight and wisdom for the Christian life.Spurgeon writes,"Certain divines have doubted the inspiration of Solomon’s Song; others have conceived it to be nothing more than a specimen of ancient love songs, and some have been afraid to preach from it because of its highly poetical character. The true reason for all this avoidance of one of the most heavenly portions of God’s Word lies in the fact that the spirit of this Song is not easily attained. Its music belongs to the higher spiritual life, and has no charm in it for unspiritual ears.The Song occupies a sacred enclosure into which none may enter unprepared. “Put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground,” is the warning voice from its secret tabernacles. The historical books I may compare to the outer courts of the Temple; the Gospels, the Epistles, and the Psalms, bring us into the holy place or the Court of the priests; but the Song of Solomon is the most holy place: the holy of holies, before which the veil still hangs to many an untaught believer. It is not all the saints who can enter here, for they have not yet attained unto the holy confidence of faith, and that exceeding familiarity of love which will permit them to commune in conjugal love with the great Bridegroom.We are told that the Jews did not permit the young student to read the Canticles—that years of full maturity were thought necessary before the man could rightly profit by this mysterious Song of loves. Possibly they were wise; at any rate, the prohibition foreshadowed a great truth. The Song is, in truth, a book for full-grown Christians. Babes in grace may find their carnal and sensuous affections stirred up by it towards Jesus, whom they know, rather “after the flesh” than in the spirit; but it needs a man of fuller growth, who has leaned his head upon the bosom of his Master, and been baptized with his baptism, to ascend the lofty mountains of love on which the spouse standeth with her beloved.The Song, from the first verse to the last, will be clear to those who have received an unction from the holy One, and know all things. The Song is a golden casket, of which love is the key rather than learning. Those who have not attained unto heights of affection, those who have not been educated by familiar intercourse with Jesus, cannot come near to this mine of treasure, “seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of heaven.” O for the soaring eagle wing of John, and the farseeing dove’s eyes of Solomon; but the most of us are blind and cannot see afar off. May God be pleased to make us grow in grace, and give us so much of the Holy Spirit, that with feet like hind’s feet we may stand upon the high places of Scripture, and have some near and dear intercourse with Christ Jesus."

नामः परम् तत्ववेत्ता सन्त श्री कमल किशोर जी
पृथ्वी पर आगमनः 28 मार्च 1958
परम् तत्व का ज्ञानः वर्ष 1995
एक जीवंत गुरु, जिसके सम्पर्क में आते ही शारीरिक, मानसिक, आत्मिक एवं आध्यात्मिक बाधएं अपने आप समाप्त होने लगती हैं।
सन्त श्री कमल किशोर जी उनसे भी प्रेम करते हैं, जो उनसे प्रेम करते हैं और उनसे भी प्रेम करते हैं जो उनसे घृणा करते हैं, वे उनको भी प्रेम करते हैं जो उनके पास हैं, वे उनसे भी प्रेम करते हैं जो उनसे दूर हैं- क्योंकि उनके पास देने को है तो सिफ॔ प्रेम!
प्रेम ही उनका धर्म है, उनका स्वभाव है, उनकी पहचान है। वे कहते हैं कि इन्सान वही तो दे सकता है जो उसके पास है। उनके पास केवल प्रेम है।
पेड़-पौधे, जीव-जन्तुओं सभी से वे उनकी भाषा में बात करते हैं-आयुर्वेद के सम्पूर्ण ज्ञाता हैं, शान्ति के प्रदाता हैं। चाहे गीता हो या कुरान, रामायण हो या बाइबल, श्री गुरु ग्रन्थ साहब हों या उपनिषद - कबीर हों या नानक, बुद्ध या महावीर, मीरा हों या एकनाथ, ज्ञानेश्वर हों या रहीम, मंसूर हों या च्वांगत्सू, दरियादास हों या महाराज पलटू, सन्त रविदास हों या सरमद, नामदेव हों या तुकाराम, दादू दयाल हों या शेख़-फरीद या फिर हों साईं बुल्लेशाह-सभी के साथ गहरा संबंध् है ।

A Mr. Crook Mystery, from the Author of Death in the Blackout.
From inside front cover: No wonder they called Mereshire "The Village That God Forgot!" For over it, like an ominous pall, hung the Curse of the Clevelands--the curse that struck with uncanny force, generation after generation. Always the eldest son of the Earl of Cleveland kept an appointment with Death--one was drowned, one shot, one poisoned, one killed in battle. And then "it" struck Edmund Oliver, who was found at the bottom of a quarry, his neck broken. Was "it" the Curse--or the bloody hands of the village ne'er-do-well, Tom Grigg? Then, years later, Tom Grigg dares to return--and he is murdered! Are these two deaths--a generation apart--connected in any way? That's what Arthur Crook, that solid sleuth, wants to know. The Curse is understandable--it was born of greed--but why should anyone want to get rid of a penniless fugitive? Had he known a secret that someone had to silence? When the police arrest the victim's elderly aunt, Mr. Crook simply must ferret out the answers--or eat that brown bowler of his.
The victim was certainly deserving of death, but not the hard, cruel death he found. No one deserved that ...At first, the killer goes unsuspected. Someone else would pay the price for the crime - an innocent woman would pay and the murderer was willing to arrange other, more 'accidental' deaths to ensure it ...until solicitor/detective Arthur Crook steps in.
It was sheer luck that caused Arthur Crook, taking an unwanted holiday in November in the little Mereshire Village of Bridges St. Mary, to stumble on a body where no body had any right to be. It was Crook who hardily undertook to work for the defense of the old woman arrested for the crime, who followed the trail from Kings Fossett to Bishop Cleveland, and thence to London; who unraveled the mystery of the strange girl, Stella Reed; who attacked the murderer with his own weapons and at the eleventh hour, when everything seemed lost, who produced the final iota of evidence that brought the criminal to book. In one of his most baffling cases, Crook only has two guiding principles: his client is always innocent and, come hell or high water, he always gets his man.

The Man who Killed the King tells the story of Roger Brook–Prime Minister Pitt's most resourceful secret agent–during the Great Terror when more than a million people perished and the Terrorists found that the guillotine did not work quickly enough. This, the second phase of the French Revolution, opened with the storming of the Tuileries in June, 1792, and in the months that followed, the Liberals were mown down by cannon fire, drowned by the thousand, and flung back into the flames of villages burnt to the ground.
And amidst all this brutality and bloodshed, Roger Brook, a Commissar in Revolutionary Paris, faced terrifying hazards trying desperately to rescue Queen Marie Antoinette and other members of the Royal Family from a mob thirsting for revenge...

Dabei geht es sowohl um poetologische als auch um geistesgeschichtliche Aspekte des Romans, seiner Schreibweisen und seiner Rezeption. Im Vordergrund steht weniger die Interpretation von Einzeltexten als vielmehr die Frage nach dem Ort eines bestimmten Textes innerhalb der gesamten Textualität des Romans im 20. Jahrhunderts.

The Lost Vanguard: Russian Modernist Architecture 1922-1932
|
["Richard Pare"]

|
The Lost Vanguard documents the work of modernist architects in the Soviet Union during the years following the 1917 revolution and civil war. In little more than a decade, some of the most radical buildings of the twentieth century were completed by a small group of architects who developed a new architectural language in support of new social goals of communal life. Rarely published and virtually inaccessible until the collapse of the Soviet regime, these important buildings have remained unknown and unappreciated.Richard Pare's photographs reveal the powerful forms of these structures, some still in use but many now abandoned and decayed. Massive industrial complexes like the Dnieper River Dam and MoGES, which supplies electricity to the city of Moscow; vast communal houses for workers, including Ginzburg's Narkomfin; commercial buildings and government offices; and smaller clubs and theaters were all built in this brief period.In an incisive essay, architectural historian Jean-Louis Cohen surveys the history of the period, providing a context for the emergence of this startling new architecture in parallel to contemporary experiments in Europe.

The Veteran's PTSD Handbook: How to File and Collect on Claims for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
|
["John D. Roche"]

| null |
From the author of The Veteran’s Survival Guide, The Veteran’s PTSD Handbook addresses the obstacles that veterans face when filing for benefits related to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). One of the greatest obstacles, John Roche writes, is establishing a connection between a veteran’s service and PTSD. Because both combat stressors and noncombat stressors can cause PTSD and because of the difficulties in diagnosing the condition, filing a successful claim for benefits based on PTSD is difficult. In the same accessible, self-help style used in The Veteran’s Survival Guide , Roche offers detailed instructions on how to prepare a well-grounded claim for veterans’ benefits relating to PTSD. He also discusses the four years he spent helping one veteran establish a “service connection” for his PTSD claim with Veterans Affairs. This book will be required reading for any veteran or veteran’s dependent who wishes to obtain his or her well-earned benefits and for those officials of veterans’ service organizations who assist veterans with their claims.

La marmellata, ancora calda, era ovunque nel raggio di due metri. La torta era stata completamente privata del bordo e delle classiche striature tipiche della crostata che s’incrociano sopra la confettura. Ognuna di queste parti poi, tagliata e rimodellata con abilità, componeva un messaggio. No, un nome. Jack! Non era un incidente, non poteva essere nemmeno un suicidio. Si trattava della prima vittima di Jack lo squartatorte!
Peter Gustavo, ispettore capo del ventitreesimo distretto di Crema, aspettava un caso di questa portata da tutta una vita. Più precisamente da quanto si trovò arruolato alla polizia di stato con il grado d’investigatorte, a causa di un errore di trascrizione. Vani furono i tentativi di far correggere l’attestato in investigatore, suo sogno fin da bambino.
Le indagini continueranno serrate, tra colpi di scena e tazze di caffè americano. La tensione tra gli appassionati di cucina sarà sempre più palpabile con l’aumentare delle vittime. In tutto saranno cinque le torte barbaramente massacrate e rimpiante dai propri ingredienti.
Una spirale di emozioni fino al finale a sorpresa. Conclusione dolce o amara? Sarà il lettore a deciderlo.

Paris Café: The Select Crowd

Acclaimed author Noël Riley Fitch, abetted by noted artist Rick Tulka, serves the dish on Select, the famous Montparnasse café that for nearly nine decades has been so vital to Paris and its intellectual denizens: from Hemingway, Beauvoir, Picasso, James Baldwin, and George Plimpton to the writers and artists who continue to work quietly there in the back room or heatedly debate every topic imaginable into the night. The artists have their work on the walls; the novelists include the café setting in their fiction. The quiet and drama of the Sélect world illustrates the centrality of cafés — particularly this one — to Parisian social, cultural, and intellectual life. Blending pithy profiles and witty drawings of clientele and staff, the book is organized around a history of the café, its daily and seasonal rhythms, particular colorful patrons, and even its typical café/brasserie food (including a few recipes).

Either the President’s forces withdraw from the Terrorist’s lands or, in three days on the stroke of midnight, he will be executed on live TV.Hiding out in a cave in the desert with his master and fellow kidnappers, Hassan believes the battle is almost won. Then, from the burning, empty plains a man in black appears. He carries only an antique dagger at his waist and a small golden bird in a cage. His purpose, he claims, is to help them in their mission. He has been sent by his master. And torture is his trade.

Sous ma protection, Beverly LongPourquoi est-il venu s’enterrer dans ce trou perdu ? Jake ne cesse de se poser la question à mesure qu’il découvre Wyattville, ce petit village niché en plein cœur du Minnesota où il est arrivé la veille pour y remplacer le shérif. Sitôt sa mission terminée, il repartira. C’est du moins ce dont il est convaincu, jusqu’à ce qu’il rencontre Joanna Travis, qui tient l’unique restaurant de la ville. Car, malgré son envie de quitter la ville au plus vite, cette femme douce, belle et extrêmement discrète réussit à l’intriguer. Comme s’il lisait dans ses grands yeux inquiets qu’elle avait peur de quelque chose. Ou de quelqu’un. Et qu’elle avait besoin de lui pour la protéger…Dangereuse proximité, Julie MillerUne lettre. La troisième qu’elle reçoit en quelques jours à peine. Le commissaire Shauna Cartwright est désemparée : se pourrait-il, comme le lui affirme l’auteur anonyme des missives, qu’elle se soit trompée deux ans plus tôt, et qu’elle ait fait emprisonner un innocent dans la sordide affaire de meurtre sur laquelle elle enquêtait alors ? Résolue à en avoir le cœur net, elle demande à Eli Masterson de l’aider à rouvrir le dossier. Solliciter ce flic hors pair n’est pas pour lui déplaire, elle doit bien le reconnaître. Mais elle va devoir faire preuve de sang-froid : Masterson est extrêmement troublant ; or, entre eux, rien n’est possible…
