Download or read book Survival Driving written by Robert H. Deatherage, Jr. and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Survival Driving: Staying Alive on the World’s Most Dangerous Roads, Second Edition was written to inform and protect: to keep people alive by making them more situationally aware. Any person is a potential target, either from a criminal or a terrorist threat, depending on your profession and the type of environment you live and work in. Driving is the most important part of a person’s security program, whether the person is traveling alone or the executive being moved by his or her security detail. The book is written in plain, easy to understand language providing straight-forward guidance that outlines tools to ensure security whenever in transit in a vehicle. This includes making themselves a hard target in order to avoid attack. While most terrorist or criminal attacks are difficult to predict, the majority of attacks take place when a person is in transit. By providing tools such as rout analysis, identifying choke points, learning where safe havens are located along a route, individuals are able to predict the places that are most vulnerable, and take steps to ensure safety. VIPs, executives, those working in—or traveling to—volatile regions of the world, and those hired to protect such individuals will equally learn how to detect surveillance when it is targeted against them, when they are the potential target. Failing this, the book also provides the tools a person needs to break contact and escape when an attack against them while moving in their vehicle occurs. The book covers basic and advanced driving skills and instructs on how to best understand the transport vehicle and its capabilities. Key Features: Instructs readers on how to recognize and anticipate potential attack sites during movement Illustrates how to properly maintain a vehicle at peak performance in different environments so it will work as required when needed Describes vehicle dynamics and, specifically, how a vehicle can be used as a tool to protect, and aid escape, when under attack Outlines the ways individuals can become more situationally aware in their movements Maps out key security driving elements such as steering, braking, vehicle dynamics, and evasive maneuvers to escape amidst a threat By raising situational awareness, increasing knowledge of the attack cycle, and outlining the nature of threats, Survival Driving can transform any reader from a soft target to an informed hard target who threat actors will want to avoid.
Download or read book Martin Heidegger and the Truth About the Black Notebooks written by Friedrich-Wilhelm von Herrmann and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toward the beginning of 2013, I received reports of passages in the Black Notebooks that offered observations on Jewry, or as the case may be, world Jewry. It immediately became clear to me that the publication of the Black Notebooks would call forth a wide-spread international debate. Already in the Spring of 2013, I had asked Professor Friedrich-Wilhelm von Herrmann, last private assistant – and in the words of my grandfather, the “chief co-worker of the complete edition”, – if he might review the Notebooks as a whole, based on his profound insight into the thought of Martin Heidegger, and in particular, review those Jewish-related passages that were the focus of the public eye. Publications about the Black Notebooks quickly came to propagate catchy expressions such as “being-historical anti-Semitism” and “metaphysical anti-Semitism”. The first question that obviously arises is: Does the thought of Martin Heidegger exhibit any kind of anti-Semitism at all? In this book Professor von Herrmann now advances his hermeneutic explication. With Professor Francesco Alfieri of the Pontificia Università Lateranense he has found a colleague who has drawn up a comprehensive philological analysis of volumes GA 94 through GA 97 of the Complete Edition. The fact that Heidegger designated the hitherto published “black notebooks” as Ponderings (Überlegungen) and as Observations (Anmerkungen) has been given little consideration. He intentionally placed them at the conclusion of the Complete Edition because without acquaintance with the lectures, and above all, with the being-historical treatises that would come to be published in the framework of the Complete Edition, they would not be comprehensible. (Arnulf Heidegger)

Beyond the Bechers’ iconic Typologies, the book includes Bernd’s early drawings, Hilla’s independent photographs, and excerpts from their notes, sketchbooks, and journals. The book’s authors offer new insights into the development of the artists’ process, their work’s conceptual underpinnings, the photographers’ relationship to deindustrialization, and the artists’ legacy. An essay by award-winning cultural historian Lucy Sante and an interview with Max Becher, the artists’ son, make this volume an unrivaled look into the Bechers’ art alongside their career, life, and subjects.

Download or read book Notebooks 1936 1947 written by Victor Serge and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available for the first time, Victor Serge's intimate account of the last decade of his life gives a vivid look into the Franco-Russian revolutionary's life, from his liberation from Stalin's Russia to his "Mexico Years," when he wrote his greatest works. In 1936, Victor Serge—poet, novelist, and revolutionary—left the Soviet Union for Paris, the rare opponent of Stalin to escape the Terror. In 1940, after the Nazis marched into Paris, Serge fled France for Mexico, where he would spend the rest of his life. His years in Mexico were marked by isolation, poverty, peril, and grief; his Notebooks, however, brim with resilience, curiosity, outrage, a passionate love of life, and superb writing. Serge paints haunting portraits of Osip Mandelstam, Stefan Zweig, and “the Old Man” Trotsky; argues with André Breton; and, awaiting his wife’s delayed arrival from Europe, writes her passionate love letters. He describes the sweep of the Mexican landscape, visits an erupting volcano, and immerses himself in the country’s history and culture. He looks back on his life and the fate of the Revolution. He broods on the course of the war and the world to come after. In the darkest of circumstances, he responds imaginatively, thinks critically, feels deeply, and finds reason to hope. Serge’s Notebooks were discovered in 2010 and appear here for the first time in their entirety in English. They are a a message in a bottle from one of the great spirits, and great writers, of our shipwrecked time.

Download or read book Notebooks written by A.M. Klein and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1995-12-15 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of A.M. Klein's finest prose is to be found in the mass of uncompleted work that he abandoned at the time of his breakdown, and that became accessible only when his papers were deposited in the National Archives. Notebooks offers a generous selection of this work, revealing previously unsuspected facets of Klein's character and artistry. The fiction, criticism, and memoirs collected here focus on Klein's exploration of the role of the artist. The works illuminate crucial periods of his career, especially the early 1940s, when he was transforming himself into a modernist, and the early 1950s, when he was struggling to overcome the misgivings about his art that were to lead to his final breakdown. The semi-autobiographical text which Klein referred to as 'Raw Material' and the unfinished novel of prison life entitled 'Stranger and Afraid' cast a new light on Klein's often frustrating relationship with the Montreal Jewish community. In 'Marginalia' he discusses poetic form and technique and makes observations on the nature of poetry, thereby providing insights into his own concerns as a writer. In 'The Golem,' a profoundly ambiguous treatment of the act of creation, a self-portrait emerges of a storyteller who has lost faith in the power and value of his story. The volume includes a critical introduction, that places the material in the context of Klein's other works, as well as textual and explanatory notes.

Book excerpt: In the enigmatic tapestry of existence, Amelia, the visionary creator of Shatnolic AE Liquid, awakens to a nightmarish reality. Accused of orchestrating macabre murders involving melted human bodies, she grapples with fragmented memories of her eternal self. As the veil between worlds thins, she faces a dire choice – will the echoes of her past self defy the accusations, or will the malevolent force within her succumb to eternal evil? When she received the memories of actions of her eternal self, will she, the past self oppose or will the eternal evil self decimate? A haunting curse, whispered through the ages by the enigmatic Seth, looms ominously. ““The time will surely come and that time will be horrifying to those who crucify the devil in their God-Ridden hearts and such hearts will burn in the chest by the hell fire for that is the only resuscitate cure of The Almighty Daemon.” Against a backdrop of blackened ashes, burnt hearts, and veins pulsating with ominous black and red hues, Amelia, accompanied by steadfast friends, embarks on a quest to unravel the mysteries encoded within the sacred ‘AEON BOOK.’ This mystical tome, residing in the Collided World, holds the key to understanding the disrupted harmony of four coexisting realms. To unlock the arcane knowledge, Amelia must venture into the heart of the Collided World, dripping her blood on the threshold. Yet, the challenge extends beyond mere exploration. The real deal demands not just reading the Aeon Book but retaining its revelations in the material world— a task bordering on the impossible. With her soul detached from her body in the Collided World, imprinting memories on her earthly brain becomes an elusive feat but the actual challenge is to read the book in the Collided world while being in the Devil-Deal for the same. The facts stated in the Aeon Book is something very relatable in real life settings that is the mystery of Bermuda Triangle and other triangles that are known for mysterious disappearances of cruises and planes. As the narrative unfolds, the stakes heighten, and the race against the encroaching evil intensifies. Amelia must navigate the treacherous terrain of forgotten memories, or risk the malevolent forces within her prevailing. In this gripping prologue, the stage is set for a tale where the line between reality and the supernatural blurs, and the battle for salvation commences. Amelia and her friends stood united against Cecilia, determined to halt the impending depredation. The battle between light and darkness reached its climax as the group faced formidable challenges. In the depths of hell, Marcus embarked on a perilous journey to free Old Nick, confronting his own demons along the way. Pierce, armed with ancient Aeon Book knowledge, sought a way to send the butterflies to Amelia, a symbolic gesture representing hope and transformation. The threads of fate intertwined as the characters’ destinies collided in a final showdown. Will Amelia’s world shatter when the truth of Marcus Seraphim and Kristopher’s secret helper is unveiled? Is the veil between realms truly on the brink of being lifted, setting the stage for a face-to-face encounter among the three coexisting worlds? Was the Aeon Book merely a tool to thwart Cecilia, or does it hold deeper secrets? The mystery deepens as questions linger about its origin and purpose. How did Amelia craft this enigmatic tome, and does it conceal more than just the means to stop Cecilia? As the shadows deepen, will people succumb to helplessness, becoming unwitting servants to Cecilia’s insatiable desires? Will Amelia unravel her past with Marcus and expose the haunting transformation of Ethan into a devil? “Vicious Demonic Bellicose” promises a spell binding storyline, poised to unravel the tantalizing mysteries that have woven an intricate web of fate.
