Lost Metairie【電子書籍】[ Catherine Campanella ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Lost Metairie【電子書籍】[ Catherine Campanella ]

<p><strong>From ancient bayous to beloved old businesses, Metairie has changed dramatically over generations.</strong></p> <p>Many of those landmarks are lost to time; the lake, railroads and a beach resort were popular features in the early days. A streetcar ran through the short-lived City of Metairie Ridge, where gambling houses and dog tracks contributed more tax dollars than did the few residents. Old Bucktown was famous for its seafood. Fat City, once notorious for its nightlife, has seen better days. Author Catherine Campanella takes a look back at the schools, shops, bars, restaurants, alligator farms, bowling alleys, drive-ins and movie theaters from a bygone era.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Worship As It Is In Heaven Worship That Engages Every Believer and Establishes God's Kingdom on Earth【電子書籍】[ John Dickson ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Worship As It Is In Heaven Worship That Engages Every Believer and Establishes God's Kingdom on Earth【電子書籍】[ John Dickson ]

<p>According to the Psalms, God is enthroned on the praises of His people--and it is from that throne that He governs the heavens and the earth. If this picture of God's rule, found throughout the Scriptures, is accurate, shouldn't the Body of Christ seek to praise the King of heaven and earth in ways that release His kingdom government into specific circumstances? John A. Dickson and Chuck D. Pierce, coauthors of <em>Worship As It Is in Heaven</em>, offer the church a fresh look at heaven's pattern of worship, instituted in David's tabernacle and renewed through Jesus' apostles in the earliest days of the church. This "apostolic worship" is God's chosen way of establishing His will on earth; through worship, the forces of darkness are pushed back and righteousness prevails. In <em>Worship As It Is in Heaven</em>, readers are invited to enter in to a fullness of worship that the world has too rarely seen: worship that is the conduit of God's government of peace, justice, and holiness on the earth.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Communication Realities in a "Post-Racial" Society What the U.S. Public Really Thinks of President Barack Obama【電子書籍】[ Mark P. Orbe ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Communication Realities in a "Post-Racial" Society What the U.S. Public Really Thinks of President Barack Obama【電子書籍】[ Mark P. Orbe ]

<p>This book seeks to go beyond existing public polls regarding Barack Obama, and instead offers a comprehensive treatment of public perceptions that resist mass generalizations based on race, gender, age, political affiliation, or geographical location. Drawing from a large national qualitative data set generated by 333 diverse participants from twelve different states across six U.S. regions, Mark P. Orbe offers a comprehensive look into public perceptions of Barack Obama's communication style, race matters, and the role of the media in 21st century politics. Communication Realities in a "Post-Racial" Society: What the U.S. Public Really Thinks about Barack Obama is the first of its kind in that it uses the voices of everyday U.S. Americans to advance our understanding of how identity politics influence public perceptions. The strength of a book such as this one lies within the power of the diverse perspectives of hundreds of participants. Each chapter features extended comments from rural volunteer fire fighters in southern Ohio, African American men in Oakland, CA, religious communities in Alabama; New England senior citizens; military families from southern Virginia; Tea Party members from Nebraska; business and community leaders from North Carolina; individuals currently unemployed and/or underemployed in Connecticut; college students from predominately White, Black, and Hispanic-serving institutions of higher learning; and others. As such, it is the first book that is based on comments from multiple perspectives - something that allows a deeper understanding that hasn't been possible with public polls, media sound bites, and political commentary. It is a must read for scholars interested in contemporary communication in a time when "post-racial" declarations are met with resistance and political junkies who seek an advanced understanding of the peculiarities of rapidly changing political realities.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Gone The Disappearance of Community in the Modern American Church【電子書籍】[ Bruce Snoap ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Gone The Disappearance of Community in the Modern American Church【電子書籍】[ Bruce Snoap ]

<p>We all take on the character and nature of the society we live in. But as Christians, we are to have a different look. More and more in the modern American society, Christians look like everybody else, and when we do try to stand out, we are mocked and ridiculed, and so we draw back in to look like everyone else. God has given us a call to live as a community. To live outside the lines of the world. To be his hands and feet in a troubled world, but not to be just like the world. Too often in our world, Christians curb their ideologies and their faith to be more accepted, so we can create community. But true community is not sacrificing our obedience to God in order to appease the world around us. One of the major reasons for the growth of the first-century church was their need to rely on each other. Their need not for autonomous individualism but for community.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The 4 Hundred and 20 Assassins of Emir Abdullah-Harazins【電子書籍】[ Joseph DeMarco ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The 4 Hundred and 20 Assassins of Emir Abdullah-Harazins【電子書籍】[ Joseph DeMarco ]

<p><strong>Warning: Philosophical Content-Explicit Ideas-May offend those easily offended.</strong> The legend of the Hassan El Sabbah is not as famous as his garden. Sabbah was an entrepreneur of sorts using the assassin as a tool to gain political influence throughout the Middle East. He would use young men by making them smoke hash then allowing them to enter his garden of earthly delights. The young men were told they had entered paradise and would be expelled if they did not carry out Sabbahs wishes, which were usually to kill someone of relative importance. This tale is not only a fictional look at Sabbah, but also a mind-altering look into Americas drug culture and the idea of paradise. Told by a stoner, set over a thousand years ago with an Arabian Nights feel to it, the story centers around Emir Abdullah-Harazins (Sabbah) and his infamous garden. It is the story of only one of his Hashishiyyins (Assassins).</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Three Wars of Lt. Gen. George E. Stratemeyer: His Korean War Diary - Far East Air Forces Commander, Problems with Other Services, the Press, Contradictory and Conflicting Orders, Lack of Materiel【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Three Wars of Lt. Gen. George E. Stratemeyer: His Korean War Diary - Far East Air Forces Commander, Problems with Other Services, the Press, Contradictory and Conflicting Orders, Lack of Materiel【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]

<p>This print replica reproduction of an official Air Force book publishes the unique diary of the Korean War written by Lt. Gen. George E. Stratemeyer.</p> <p>Although some people see the Korean War as just a ground war, it was far more than that. It was the first war the United States Air Force fought as a separate service, and a war in which America's joint service air power team performed sterling work. Without the air dominance gained by Air Force F-86 Sabres against a numerically larger foe, the ground forces would have been left vulnerable to air attack with disastrous consequences. Without the close support and interdiction efforts of the Air Force B-26s, B-29s, F-51s, F-80s and F-84s, and Navy and Marine F9F Panthers, F4U Corsairs, AD Skyraiders and F7F Tigercats, the tasks of the ground forces would have been made immeasurably more difficult. Without the enormous exertions of the C-46s, C-47s, C-54s, and C-119s, supply, sustainment and evacuation of ground forces would have been virtually impossible. Without the men and planes of Lt. Gen. George E. Stratemeyer's Far East Air Forces and their naval and Marine colleagues, the war's denouement may have been entirely different.</p> <p>This is a unique document. Throughout the years, although often officially frowned upon, officers and men alike have kept diaries. Some of these diaries, primarily from World War Two, have been published. Few, if any, from the Korean War have seen the light of day. Thus General Stratemeyer's diary of the first year of the war provides a unique look at the war from a high level. His diary is rich in the personalities, the operations, the problems and successes, and the behind the scenes maneuverings of the United States' military services in the Far East as they waged the war. Much of what he reveals in his diary is still valid today: proper force size and equipment; accurate and timely intelligence; coordination with the other services; a realization of the impact of media coverage on a war. Despite an organization possessing global capabilities well beyond what Stratemeyer could envision in 1950, these remain the concerns of the United States Air Force today, the centerpiece of America's joint aerospace team. Reading this work confirms one of the great lessons of twentieth century warfare, a lesson applicable to the conflicts of the twenty-first century as well: appropriate and timely use of aerospace power enables both the thwarting of an aggressor's will, and the minimizing of casualties to one's own surface forces.</p> <p>From June 25, 1950, to May 20, 1951, Lt. Gen. George E. Stratemeyer, the Far East Air Forces commander, kept a diary of his activities during the Korean War. A number of general officers kept such diaries during World War II, although the practice was generally frowned upon by higher headquarters and, in the Navy at least, was against regulations. In the Korean War, the writing of such works became less wide-spread. Surprisingly, however, three diaries written by senior Air Force officers (Stratemeyer, Maj. Gen. Earle E. Partridge, Commander, Fifth Air Force, and Maj. Gen. Edward J. Timberlake, Vice Commander, Fifth Air Force) exist from the Korean War. These three diaries view the war from different perspectives: Stratemeyer's from a high-level planning, strategy, and political viewpoint; Partridge's from a mid-level planning and operational plane; Timberlake's from a slightly lower operational level. This book, however, deals only with General Stratemeyer's diary. It is a valuable document because his position as Far East Air Forces commander allowed him to observe the war and its personalities from a unique perspective.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Snorri Sturluson and the Edda The Conversion of Cultural Capital in Medieval Scandinavia【電子書籍】[ Kevin Wanner ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Snorri Sturluson and the Edda The Conversion of Cultural Capital in Medieval Scandinavia【電子書籍】[ Kevin Wanner ]

<p>Why would Snorri Sturluson (c. 1179-1241), the most powerful and rapacious Icelander of his generation, dedicate so much time and effort to producing the Edda, a text that is widely recognized as the most significant medieval source for pre-Christian Norse myth and poetics? Kevin J. Wanner brings us a new account of the interests that motivated the production of this text, and resolves the mystery of its genesis by demonstrating the intersection of Snorri's political and cultural concerns and practices.</p> <p>The author argues that the Edda is best understood not as an antiquarian labour of cultural conservation, but as a present-centered effort to preserve skaldic poetry's capacity for conversion into material and symbolic benefits in exchanges between elite Icelanders and the Norwegian court. Employing Pierre Bourdieu's economic theory of practice, Wanner shows how modern sociological theory can be used to illuminate the cultural practices of the European Middle Ages. In doing so, he provides the most detailed analysis to date of how the Edda relates to Snorri's biography, while shedding light on the arenas of social interaction and competition that he negotiated.</p> <p>A fascinating look at the intersections of political interest and cultural production, <em>Snorri Sturluson and the Edda</em> is a detailed portrait of both an important man and the society of his times.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Is Islam Really Islam: The Divide Between Modern Islam and Its Original Texts【電子書籍】[ The Arab Spinoza ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Is Islam Really Islam: The Divide Between Modern Islam and Its Original Texts【電子書籍】[ The Arab Spinoza ]

<p>It begins with a quiet hum of dissonance, a question you were taught to never ask aloud.</p> <p>You hear that Islam is a religion of peace, yet you read verses of war. You are told the Prophet was a mercy to mankind, yet you discover troubling stories in his biography. You are told that your modern, compassionate values are Islamic values, but you can't find them in the stark legal codes of the classical texts.</p> <p>For too long, the only answers have been apologetic reinterpretations or accusations of "Islamophobia." This book offers a third path: a rigorous, rational, and intellectually honest investigation that respects your intelligence and validates your doubts.</p> <p>Writing under the pseudonym "The Arab Spinoza," the author takes you on a step-by-step journey through the great divideーthe chasm between the comfortable, sanitized Islam taught in the public square and the challenging, authoritative Islam found in its foundational sources.</p> <p>Inside this book, you will discover:</p> <ul> <li>THE TWO FACES OF ISLAM: A clear breakdown of "Islam-as-Morality" (what is preached) versus "Islam-as-Submission" (what is written).</li> <li>THE UNFILTERED TEXTS: A direct look at the Qur'an's contradictions, the doctrine of abrogation (Naskh), and the verses on jizya, apostasy, and blasphemy that are often ignored.</li> <li>THE PROPHET'S OTHER BIOGRAPHY: An examination of Muhammad's life as a brilliant but ruthless statesman and commander, using Islam's own earliest sources.</li> <li>THE HADITH BOMBSHELL: Why the most "authentic" (Sahih) traditions are often the most morally and ethically troubling for modern readers.</li> <li>THE PSYCHOLOGICAL PRISON: A compassionate analysis of the mechanisms of fear, tribe, and identity that prevent honest questioning.</li> <li>A TOOLKIT FOR CLEAR THINKING: A practical guide to dismantling apologetic arguments and developing intellectual self-defense.</li> </ul> <p>This book is not an attack. It is a work of deconstruction and clarification, designed for those who value truth over comfort. It is for the questioning Muslim, the concerned ex-Muslim, and any reader who seeks to understand one of the world's most influential ideologies on its own terms.</p> <p>If you are ready to trade the fragile peace of a sanitized faith for the resilient clarity of an examined one, this book is the key.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Made Right with God ? Mankind’s Deepest Desire A Short Treatise on the Theology of Salvation and Its Many Aberrations【電子書籍】[ Douglas C. McIntosh M.D. ]

<p>What does it mean to be made right with God? Is it even possible? How can you be sure? In Made Right with God: Man’s Deepest Desire, author Douglas C. McIntosh tells how you must return to the source material: the Bible. It’s never out of date or contradictory; it’s the living word of God.</p> <p>Born out of a concern for people who have struggled with their understanding of God’s great salvation, McIntosh points believers to the Bible, to read it, and to let scripture interpret itself. In this examination, he provides:</p> <p>? a word study of Biblical salvation terms;</p> <p>? an application of salvation to people’s lives;</p> <p>? salvation stories from scripture as well as personal testimony; and</p> <p>? a look at the foundations of the Biblical theology such as who God is and who we are as humans.</p> <p>Through a host of scriptures, Made Right with God: Mankind's Deepest Desire shows the Gospel is a treatise on the good news of salvation, communicating that Jesus was the one sent from God and that through him and only through him we have eternal life.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

EB-1(c) Multinational Manager Petition【電子書籍】[ Brian D. Lerner ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】EB-1(c) Multinational Manager Petition【電子書籍】[ Brian D. Lerner ]

<p>Do you currently have your own business in your home country? Do you want to open a business in the United States? Have you already received the L-1 Nonimmigrant Visa? Do you want to want to apply for the Green Card through an employment-based visa petition? This type of petition might be the best employment way to obtain the Green Card. You do not need to have an investment of more than $1,000,000 or a million dollars. It is not granted conditionally for 2 years like the EB-5. It is not backlogged for years but is current. Yes, the EB-1( c ) might be the best way for you to get residency for you, your spouse and your children.</p> <p>In order to initially even be considered for this type of visa, you will need to make sure that there is a company which you are a manager or executive in your home country (or a country outside of the U.S.) and then a branch office in the U.S. where you are a manager or executive. That would be the initial basis for you to apply for this type of investment visa. Note that the actual investment for this type of visa is much smaller than the EB-5 Investor Visa. Additionally, there is no necessity for a treaty with the foreign country such as with an E-2 Investment Visa or E-1 Treaty-Trader Visa.</p> <p>While it would be better and more effective to use an experienced attorney, it is clear that many times people just do not have the funds to retain an attorney. Therefore, note that this EB-1(c) Multinational Manager Petition is made by an experienced immigration lawyer with nearly 30 years of experience. It is real and it was actually submitted. You can put your own facts and information in this petition, and note that it will be a very good sample for you to proceed with the EB-1 (c).</p> <p>This is the entrepreneurial way to obtain the Green Card without needing tons of money and without waiting years. It is possible to apply for the EB-1 ( c ) even through you do not have the L-1. However, it will be more difficult. One reason to do this if your children will age out and you need to hurry, it might be an option. If approved, it will be a permanent Green Card, not the 2 year conditional Green Card.</p> <p>The sample EB-1(c) Multinational Manager Petition will give lots of great information and a significant amount of information and data that will comply with the requirements. Thus, if you cannot hire an immigration lawyer to prepare the necessary EB-1(c) Multinational Manager Petition, then this is the next best thing. Follow it carefully and closely and you will have a real chance of realizing your dream to stay inside the United States. Note that the adjudicating officer at USCIS is not your friend or the Consulate Officer at the U.S. Consulate deciding whether you should get this particular visa or status. Thus, you need to completely and properly document and prepare your EB-1(c) Multinational Manager Petition. You must properly either get legal representation via an attorney or represent yourself. Either way, if you qualify for this, you must make it as strong as possible.</p> <p>We certainly hope you find this petition useful and helpful and hope for the best immigration experience you can have. We do have petitions on every subject area of immigration, and you might look at those if needed as well. If you do need to actually have a consultation, you can call our U.S. Immigration Law office at 562-495-0554 for an initial free consultation to determine what must be done to help you and your family.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>14 May 1988 QUALIFYING FOR MONACO GRAND PRIX</p> <p>The spine tingling spectacle of the late Ayrton Senna on a qualifying lap provided some of the most thrilling moments in the history of the sport. There has never been a faster driver over a single lap - his record of 65 pole positions is unlikely to ever be broken - nor has anyone thought so deeply about it. When he talked about his memorable lap, the one that left the most indelible impression on his exceptional mind, Senna's eyes shone with a faraway look and his voice quavered with intensity...</p> <p><em>"Suddenly I realised that I was no longer driving the car consciously. I was kind of driving by instinct, only I was in a different dimension. I was way over the limit; but still I was able to find even more. It frightened me, because I realised I was well beyond my conscious understanding."</em><br /> - "the late, great" Ayrton Senna</p> <p>* from ‘FORMULA 1: The Autobiography ‘<br /> Edited by Gerald Donaldson (and first published in the UK in 2002 by Wedenfeld and Nicolson).

I define genius as just the right side of imbalance. He is highly developed to the point where he is almost over the edge.

‘Going Native?' Settler Colonialism and Food【電子書籍】

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】‘Going Native?' Settler Colonialism and Food【電子書籍】

<p>This volume offers a comparative survey of diverse settler colonial experiences in relation to food, food culture and foodways - how the latter are constructed, maintained, revolutionised and, in some cases, dissolved. What do settler colonial foodways and food cultures look like? Are they based on an imagined colonial heritage, do they embrace indigenous repertoires or invent new hybridised foodscapes? What are the socio-economic and political dynamics of these cultural transformations? In particular, this volume focuses on three key issues: the evolution of settler colonial identities and states; their relations vis-?-vis indigenous populations; and settlers’ self-indigenisation ? the process through which settlers transform themselves into the native population, at least in their own eyes. These three key issues are crucial in understanding settler-indigenous relations and the rise of settler colonial identities and states.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Nazi Movies as Propaganda Machine How Goebbels Changed the German Film Industry Into an Ideological Weapon【電子書籍】[ Davis Truman ]

<p>The German film industry transformed from a collection of independent studios into a division of the Nazi Party between 1933 and 1945. German film became a crucial component of the Nazi campaign to ideologically indoctrinate the German populace as part of the Ministry for Popular Enlightenment and Propaganda, led by Joseph Goebbels. However, the business kept up its prior commercial practices and continued to make movies aimed at paying German consumers. Even though Goebbels worked hard to turn German cinema into an ideological weapon, the theater nevertheless served as a popular consumer marketplace, and the various film tastes of German moviegoers continued to affect the kinds of films made. Therefore, filmmaking in Nazi Germany was influenced by popular taste and Goebbels' ideological objectives.</p> <p>This book will look at several movies that demonstrate Goebbel's evolving propaganda objectives and the changing preferences of the German audience for movies during the Nazi era. Box office statistics from the years before and after the start of World War II offer unique insight into German film consumption and serve to highlight the extent to which the general public supported the war in Germany.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>Are you ready to enter the dance of becoming fully alive?</strong></p> <p>Have you ever wondered, if we have the God of heaven and earth living inside us, why aren't we experiencing more in life?

The Versatility of the Real Estate Asset Class - the Singapore Experience【電子書籍】[ Kim Hin David HO ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Versatility of the Real Estate Asset Class - the Singapore Experience【電子書籍】[ Kim Hin David HO ]

<p>Chapter 1 takes a close look at two types of heterogeneous investors (momentum and disposition) to form a unique difference model, to interpret housing price dynamics. Three parameters are crucial, namely, auto-correlation, the rate of mean reversion and the contemporaneous adjustment towards long-term equilibrium price. The key implication is that the 2006 boom of the Singapore private housing market does not offer as large a magnitude as that from the price gain in the 1990’s boom-and-recovery over the long-term. Singapore’s private housing market is low risk, offering stable returns owing to virtually no divergence even in the speculative 1990s. The best way to invest is to consider the momentum strategy and avoid the herd behaviour for profit sustainability. For policy makers, the Singapore private housing market is over-damped in the long run. Chapter 2 adopts game theory to look at the private residential development oligopolistic market; the determination of residential development sale prices in an uncertain market and under incomplete information of competing developers; the dynamic interaction among developers; the time lags of the development project completion from project start; and the launching of the residential development for sale before completion and the residential development’s own capacity constraints. Developers tend to cooperate for long-term benefit, leading to a sales slowdown. Relatively high profits, earnable in the first few periods, provide an allowance to price undercut others, to sell much faster. First-mover advantage in a new market is evident. As uncertainty rises, prices decrease while price variability increases. Chapter 3 looks at the institutional nature of legal origin and the total returns (TRs), derived from investing in a country’s direct real estate, and via the adoption of a multi-factor arbitrage pricing theory (APT) model. The 1st and 4th order autoregressive model is adopted to de-smooth the TRs. De-smoothed data is used in conjunction with 2 macroeconomic variables (real GDP growth rate and interest rate) and 1 real estate risk factor (vacancy rate) to form the multi-factor structural model. A pooled panel analysis is conducted with the law-system dummies, denoting British legal origin and French legal origin, and the factor loadings (i.e. the sensitivity of the risk factor to the TRs). Macroeconomic and real estate risk factors in equilibrium affect the TRs. Vacancy rate commands high and significant risk premium owing to its direct impact on the TRs, relative to GDP growth rate and interest rate. Chapter 4 is concerned with the real estate mezzanine investment (REMI), a new financial instrument for Asia’s real estate market, and examines the REMI structure, the measurement and characteristics of its risks and returns via a forward-looking binomial asset tree (BAT) model. Risk neutral pricing probability is adopted. REMI bears more risk than typical commercial bank loans, resulting in higher interest rates than pure equity. Different risk issues focus on two major sources - the financial loan to value (LTV) ratio risk and the real estate and capital markets risk. Chapter 4 fulfils the need to close the gap concerning the REMI structure and performance in the steady state, utilizing reliable, authoritative information and data sources. Lastly, Chapter 5 offers this book’s conclusion.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

War Against Ourselves Nature, Power and Justice【電子書籍】[ Jacklyn Cock ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】War Against Ourselves Nature, Power and Justice【電子書籍】[ Jacklyn Cock ]

<p>A look at nature and how to re-evaluate our relationship with it</p> <p>For many people "nature" means wilderness and wild animals. It is experienced indirectly through magazines and television programs or through visiting the highly managed environments of national parks. Nature, however, is not external, separate from the world of people we live in nature and interact with it daily.<br /> In this book, Jacklyn Cock describes how these intricate and complex interconnections, seen and unseen, are often ignored. Each of the ten chapters examines an aspect of our relationship with nature: ignoring, understanding, enjoying, imitating, privatizing, polluting, abusing, protecting as well as organizing for nature. The concluding chapter deals with the growing inequality between the North and the South.<br /> The War Against Ourselves compels us to re-examine our relationship with nature, to change our practices and dissolve present binary divisions such as people vs. animals, economic growth vs environmental protection, "nature" vs "culture." It demonstrates the need for an inclusive politics which brings together peace, social and environmental justice activists who believe that another world is both possible and necessary.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Grafters: Mancs Abroad More Inside Stories from Europe's Most Prolific Sneak Thieves【電子書籍】[ Mark Blaney ]

<p>"Laced with plenty of Manc humour... this is not for the good and great, more for the bad and mad." Cass Pennant"Written with blistering Mancunian humour, Blaney explains everything from the sneak thieving, the women, the drugs, the jails, and the mayhem... Amazing memories, well worth a go" Ian Hough, author of Perry BoysGrafters: Mancs Abroad is the tale of Manc lads who lived high on the hog for a couple of decades across Europe robbing the natives blind. Like all rollercoaster rides, they knew it couldn't last - this is the tale of how they survived when so many others didn't make it...Mark Blaney followed in the footsteps of his brother Colin when he realised he wasn't cut out for work of any kind. By the 80s Mark had joined his brother on Interpol's most wanted list as a prolific sneak thief, part of a gang that would regularly turnover thousands of pounds worth of jewellery a week. Stuart Campbell is a different kind of grafter. A smart confidence trickster, a smooth talker, a visible presence with an eye for the ladies - he preferred to stand out rather than blend in. This contrasting approach made him perfect for jobs requiring a legitimate front man or someone who wouldn't look out of place in an upmarket clothes shop or a bank. The lads blazed a trail through Europe, on a well worn route from Amsterdam, down through Germany and Switzerland and on into Spain for a well earned holiday. It was a party that never looked like it would ever end...</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
