Download or read book 100 000 miles of solitude written by Maarten Munnik and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than three years Maarten Munnik traveled on his motorbike around the world. From Europe through Asia to Australia, and from South America to Alaska. 100,000 miles of culture, adventure and most of all butt-pain. Every single day would be worthy of a chapter in this book, but there is just no printing-press large enough to print a book like that. Therefore you will have to settle with this collection of 'tales from the road'. Well aware of his own 'unsophisticated' view on the world, Maarten tells his tales the way he experienced them himself. He is no hero, not even a real adventurer. As he says himself: he is just stupid and naive and that combination leads him into, through and out of many unusual situations. Sometimes dramatic, sometimes hilarious, but always different.

Download or read book Good Bye Industrial Waste written by Niharika Bhawsar and published by Insta Publishing. This book was released on with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: : This book is research-based, in which studies highlighted the current polluting status of water. It has been observed and concluded that the ever-growing industry setups in industrial areas are simply releasing wastewater into streams without any pre-treatment. The resultant quality of receiving water streams is getting a high load of pollutants which is lethal to the living creatures getting exposed to it. In the present study, it has been recorded that industries like oil, milk, and other refineries are releasing biowaste material prominently containing oil & other waste traces. The mixing of oil with water severely disturbed the ecosystem and hence needs to be handled with greater attention. With the use of 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and morphological, biochemical, and pigmentation analysis Species-level identification has been done for particular species and demonstrated the prevalence of two major species in polluting water bodies from which samples have been taken. To ascertain the potential of these strains for biosurfactant production, and can be able to deliver the function of better biodegradation. Strains do showcase the ability to degrade oil-enriched industrial waste by reducing the COD values at the maximum speed and enabled nominating these strains as the potential strains for the degradation of pollutants-rich wastewater probably when used in treatment plants.

In warm and intimate prose, she shows you how and why we will experience this Renaissance in our lifetime.

With 860 gorgeous, full colour images from ancient Egypt, Greece, Rome, Maya, India, China, Japan, Tibet, and medieval Europe (many never seen by an American audience), Kirschenbaum provides what world renowned graphic designer Milton Glaser described as "the visual history of the universe and its relationship to writing."

Download or read book Goodbye iSlave written by Jack Linchuan Qiu and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to a brave new world of capitalism propelled by high tech, guarded by enterprising authority, and carried forward by millions of laborers being robbed of their souls. Gathered into mammoth factory complexes and terrified into obedience, these workers feed the world's addiction to iPhones and other commodities--a generation of iSlaves trapped in a global economic system that relies upon and studiously ignores their oppression. Focusing on the alliance between Apple and the notorious Taiwanese manufacturer Foxconn, Jack Linchuan Qiu examines how corporations and governments everywhere collude to build systems of domination, exploitation, and alienation. His interviews, news analysis, and first-hand observation show the circumstances faced by Foxconn workers--circumstances with vivid parallels in the Atlantic slave trade. Ironically, the fanatic consumption of digital media also creates compulsive free labor that constitutes a form of bondage for the user. Arguing as a digital abolitionist, Qiu draws inspiration from transborder activist groups and incidents of grassroots resistance to make a passionate plea aimed at uniting--and liberating--the forgotten workers who make our twenty-first-century lives possible.

Download or read book Goodbye Trust written by Dick Stroud and published by Dick Stroud Ventures. This book was released on 2024-07-24 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A healthy and prosperous society needs efficient and trusted institutions. Yet the West is experiencing plummeting levels of trust in academia, the media, politics, business, the justice system and financial regulators. Unhappiness and mental health problems are skyrocketing, especially among the young. What the hell is going on? Everybody has their pet theory – it’s because of the pandemic – social media is addling our minds – it’s all Donald Trump’s fault. Or, as Elon Musk believes, it’s the woke mind virus. You know what – I think it might be a bit more complicated. I wasn’t satisfied with these superficial explanations. After lots of research and questioning, I now understand what’s happening. Much of what I discovered is disturbing, some is scary and a few details are even amusing. These nine essays present my findings. Six focus on the institutions and additional essays explore language manipulation and the new moral and political divides. The final essay examines those common afflictions destroying our institutions to make sense of it all. This haemorrhaging of trust has disturbing consequences and the ‘woke’ explanation for what’s happening doesn’t begin to address the complexity of the situation. Sadly, good old-fashioned incompetence, deceit and vanity are to blame.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good-bye Yamaguchi is a fast-moving story about an ambitious attempt by Japanese gangsters (yakuza) to seize control of all vice operations in cosmopolitan Miami, Florida, the gateway fro predators from Central and South America. Two ex-Secret Service agents, fired for their failure to prevent the assassination of a Black presidential candidate, reunite three years later to work as private investigators under a lucrative short-term contract for their boss. All government agencies are alarmed at the high murder rate and growing violence in Miami because of the drug trade and the security lapses on America’s southern border. A gang ninjas have been sent by a rouge Japanese crime syndicate to seize an old Nicaraguan coastal freighter from its murdered crew. Moored in the Miami River in downtown Miami, the cargo ship serves as the home of the ninja gang who avoid suspicion by posing as martial arts instructors. Using nightly assassinations and planted rumors to put rival Latino gangs against each other, the ninjas gradually begin to gain control of all Miami Vice. An elderly Japanese-speaking Filipino watchman, who had earlier survived Japanese army atrocities in the Philippines in World War II, goes aboard the ship to work as a night watchman. He rescues a drugged Black prostitute held as a sex slave and gang-raped by the ninjas. Both he and the resurrected prostitute are recruited to join the two Secret Service investigators. A Sicilian Mafia family, having failed to expand its drug activities into Spain, enters Miami to oppose the ninjas and a Mexican-Colombian cartel with further treacherous deception and murder. As the violence spins out of control, the federal agencies and the authorities in Miami send one agent to Mexico to search for answers from the violet Mexican drug cartels. The other agent goes to Japan to question the Yamaguchi-gumi crime syndicate and its yakuza rivals. During the absence of the two agents, a sex-crazed Mafia drug lord kidnaps their wife and girlfriend. The agents return to confront the kidnapper in a bloody conclusion that uncovers the mystery of the ship, its cargo, and the identity of the ninja bosses.

Download or read book Goodbye Globalization written by Elisabeth Braw and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bold new account of the state of globalization today—and what its collapse might mean for the world economy After the Cold War, globalization accelerated at breakneck speed. Manufacturing, transport, and consumption defied national borders, companies made more money, and consumers had access to an ever-increasing range of goods. But in recent years, a profound shift has begun to take place. Business executives and politicians alike are realising that globalization is no longer working. Supply chains are imperilled, Russia has been expelled from the global economy after its invasion of Ukraine, and China is using these fissures to leverage a strategic advantage. Given these pressures, what will the future of our world economy look like? In this groundbreaking account, Elisabeth Braw explores the collapse of globalization and the profound challenges it will bring to the West. Drawing on interviews with prominent executives and policymakers from around the world, Braw poses the difficult questions all businesses and economies will face—and traces the intricate story of globalization from the exuberant ’90s to the embattled present.
Download or read book Goodbye Brazil written by Maxine L. Margolis and published by University of Wisconsin Pres. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brazil, a country that has always received immigrants, only rarely saw its own citizens move abroad. Beginning in the late 1980s, however, thousands of Brazilians left for the United States, Japan, Portugal, Italy, and other nations, propelled by a series of intense economic crises. By 2009 an estimated three million Brazilians were living abroad—about 40 percent of them in the United States. Goodbye, Brazil is the first book to provide a global perspective on Brazilian emigration. Drawing and synthesizing data from a host of sociological and anthropological studies, preeminent Brazilian immigration scholar Maxine L. Margolis surveys and analyzes this greatly expanded Brazilian diaspora, asking who these immigrants are, why they left home, how they traveled abroad, how the Brazilian government responded to their exodus, and how their host countries received them. Margolis shows how Brazilian immigrants, largely from the middle rungs of Brazilian society, have negotiated their ethnic identity abroad. She argues that Brazilian society abroad is characterized by the absence of well-developed, community-based institutions—with the exception of thriving, largely evangelical Brazilian churches. Margolis looks to the future as well, asking what prospects at home and abroad await the new generation, children of Brazilian immigrants with little or no familiarity with their parents' country of origin. Do Brazilian immigrants develop such deep roots in their host societies that they hesitate to return home despite Brazil's recent economic boom—or have they become true transnationals, traveling between Brazil and their adopted lands but feeling not quite at home in either one?
