Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author Daniel Suarez imagines a chilling future where technological advances are held hostage by the government in this thriller that perfectly blends “nail-biting suspense with accessible science” (Publishers Weekly). Physicist Jon Grady and his team have discovered a device that can reflect gravity—a triumph that will revolutionize the field of physics and change the future. But instead of acclaim, Grady’s lab is locked down by a covert organization known as the Bureau of Technology Control. The bureau’s mission: suppress the truth of sudden technological progress and prevent the social upheaval it would trigger. Because the future is already here. And it’s rewards are only for a select few. When Grady refuses to join the BTC, he’s thrown into a nightmarish high-tech prison housing other doomed rebel intellects. Now, as the only hope to usher humanity out of its artificial dark age, Grady and his fellow prisoners must try to expose the secrets of an unimaginable enemy—one that wields a technological advantage half a century in the making.
Download or read book Modelling the Economic Impact of the Rohingya Influx in Southern Bangladesh written by Mateusz Filipski and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2019-09-04 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the context of the massive influx of Forcibly Displaced Myanmar Nationals to Bangladesh, this paper aims to evaluate the potential consequences on the Southern Bangladesh economy. It adopts an economywide perspective to study the impacts of increased labor supply and increased consumer demand in a general equilibrium framework, using a Local Economy-wide Impact Evaluation (LEWIE) model. The model is used to illustrate the potential effect of a large arrival of displaced populations on wages, the supply and demand of goods, and incomes of migrant and host populations. Simulations enable comparisons between possible scenarios, including two options for the size of the market being impacted (either the smaller Cox’s Bazar District, or the larger Chittagong Division) and several options for aid provisions from international actors. The databases used are the Forcibly Displaced Myanmar Nationals (FDMN) and Host Community Household Survey carried out by IFPRI, BIDS, WFP and ACF in late 2018 and the official Bangladesh Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES) 2016. We find that if the migrants enter the Cox Bazar labor markets only, their large number could potentially lead to a large drop in wage levels of around 30%. However, under similar conditions their impact in the much larger Chittagong Division would be limited to a drop of less than 4%. Cash transfers to migrants could mitigate the wage effects by stimulating local demand, but this effect is limited. Some local households may be hurt due to lower wages and higher prices. Matched transfers to local populations and investments in local industry could potentially offset some of these negative impacts.

Download or read book The Affection of Love How to Invoke an Influx of Spiritual Good written by Clayten Tylor and published by Clayten Tylor. This book was released on 2022-10-05 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an advanced guide to spiritual regeneration, the transformation of sensual energy to spiritual love, and then into divine, creative power in preparation for the experience of eternal life. It describes the transition from selfish to selflessness with its resulting benefits of an increased feeling of happiness. It prepares the physical body by the process of right-eating in order to perceive the spiritual body as the sensation of being blessed, which is necessary to perceive the sensation of the soul that comes through the benefits of right-thinking. The book takes us on an inner journey from the transition of our selfish sensation of separateness to the birth of conscience with its painful reevaluation of life, into the restitution needed to enter the higher vibrations of Divine love. The journey is not for the weak, but each step strengthens the will-power that increases our affection of love and enables us to forgive and move forward to unite with the higher self in a pulsating feeling of heavenly love. The realization is of our Divine nature in a momentary experience that lasts forever as we learn to transition into our eternal self as a feeling of Oneness. This journey is humankind's destiny, which enables each of us to enter into an inner sanctuary that we create as our testimonial to the Great Work of being more than human, of being Divine.

Download or read book Mass Refugee Influx and the Limits of Public International Law written by Ann Vibeke Eggli and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Situations of mass refugee influx represent by their very size and urgency daunting evidence of human suffering and cruelty. Consequently, the level and quality of refugee protection in times of crisis is tested. The choices to be made have to take into due consideration the prevalent conditions and restraints. They will probably always result in compromises. The question is whom or what the compromises are about? The focus in the present volume has been set on a detailed examination of some legal preconceptions commonly found in situations of mass refugee in-migration. The author concludes that situations when refugees arrive en masse do not, as a rule, qualify as a public emergency that threatens the life of the nation under contemporary international human rights law, and that mass expulsion of refugees as an emergency measure is prohibited at all times when this entails the risk of violating rights immune to derogation.

Download or read book Influx and Efflux written by Jane Bennett and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-22 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In influx & efflux Jane Bennett pursues a question that was bracketed in her book Vibrant Matter: how to think about human agency in a world teeming with powerful nonhuman influences? “Influx & efflux”—a phrase borrowed from Whitman's "Song of Myself"—refers to everyday movements whereby outside influences enter bodies, infuse and confuse their organization, and then exit, themselves having been transformed into something new. How to describe the human efforts involved in that process? What kinds of “I” and “we” can live well and act effectively in a world of so many other lively materialities? Drawing upon Whitman, Thoreau, Caillois, Whitehead, and other poetic writers, Bennett links a nonanthropocentric model of self to a radically egalitarian pluralism and also to a syntax and style of writing appropriate to the entangled world in which we live. The book tries to enact the uncanny process by which we “write up” influences that pervade, enable, and disrupt us.

Odin is the secretive Special Ops soldier with a unique insight into a faceless enemy who has begun to attack the American homeland with drones programmed to seek, identify, and execute targets without human intervention.

But as enigmatic forces press the advantage, and death rains down from above, it may already be too late to save mankind from destruction.

Download or read book Variations written by Juliet Jacques and published by Influx Press. This book was released on 2021-06-17 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Jacques's voice sings out loud and clear – wistful, drily humorous, stiletto-sharp.' – The Observer Variations is the debut short story collection from one of Britain's most compelling voices, Juliet Jacques. Using fiction inspired by found material and real-life events, Variations explores the history of transgender Britain with lyrical, acerbic wit. Variations travels from Oscar Wilde's London to austerity-era Belfast via inter-war Cardiff, a drag bar in Liverpool just after the decriminalisation of homosexuality, Manchester's protests against Clause 28, and Brighton in the 2000s. Through diary entries of an illicit love affair, an oral history of a contemporary political collective; a 1920s academic paper to a 1990s film script; a 1950s memoir to a series of 2014 blog posts, Jacques rewrites and reinvigorates a history so often relegated to stale police records and sensationalist news headlines. Innovative and fresh, Variations is a bold and beautiful book of stories unheard; until now. 'Everything about this book—from the conception, to the language, to the execution—makes me wish I'd been the one to write it. Except I couldn't have. Juliet Jacques is a complete original and this book is the proof.' – Torrey Peters
