Wild Geese How Did I Get to Here?【電子書籍】[ Marjorie Wynn ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This is the story of my life from the war years living a modest and pretty uneventful life in Lancashire to marrying an artist/rock climber which opened up a world I had never known. Our first home was in the bleak Peak District and eventually (as befits a rock climber) to the delights of the Welsh hills with a splendid view of mountains. I have spent the majority of my years in this ‘other’ country with all its wonders and delights, but I am mortified that I never learnt to speak or read the language. Nevertheless, I can turn my pen to extolling on the many delights that have come my way from settling into this land of Wales. We restored a 400 year old cottage with a tremendous view of Snowdonia (it was the view that clinched the deal) and the ‘Wild Geese’ of the title refers to our flight from our familiar world and all our relations to this Welsh wonderland.</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 Dragon and the Flying Geese: The Effects of the Emergence of China on Patterns of Growth and Development in Asia【電子書籍】[ Patrick Avato ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Economics - International Economic Relations, grade: A+, Johns Hopkins University (School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS), ), course: Asian Economic Dynamics, 31 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: For the past 30 years, Asian economies have been the world's envy as they have surpassed practically every other region in terms exports and economic growth. The remarkable development of various Asian countries has drawn millions of people out of poverty and created some of the wealthiest and most competitive economies in the world. Much of this success has been attributed to a distinctly Asian development model that combines high work ethics with an exceptional emphasis on savings and high rates of investment in both infrastructure and human capital. Moreover, the Asian Miracle was also facilitated by the extraordinary complementarily of resources, stages of development and policies of Asian countries. This complementarily made possible a pattern of development known as the Flying Geese model, in which capital, technologies and know-how trickled down, first from Japan to the Tiger economies (Taiwan, Korea, Singapore and Hong Kong) and then to the Aspirant Tigers of Southeast Asia (Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines), fostering economic development throughout the region. During the 1990s, however, this picture changed abruptly. First, a real estate and equity bubble developed in Japan, the bursting of which dragged Japan into a decade long economic crisis. Second, China emerged as a major player in the world economy as her strategy of opening up to FDI and redirecting economic activity towards exports began to pay off. In the following paper, I analyze how the spectacular rise of China has affected the patterns of Asian economic dynamics since the early 1990s. In particular, I focus on the question weather the win-win situation of economic complementarily of the past has given way to a zero sum competitive game in which the Asian economies fiercely compete for the same FDI inflows and the same export markets.</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。

Catholicism: Geese in Their Hoods (Illustrated Edition)【電子書籍】[ Charles Spurgeon ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
Charles Haddon Spurgeon (19 June 1834 31 January 1892) was a British Particular Baptist preacher who remains highly influential among Christians of different denominations, among whom he is still known as the "Prince of Preachers". Spurgeon was to 19th century England what D. L Moody was to America. Although Spurgeon never attended theological school, by the age of twenty-one he was the most popular preacher in London. A strong figure in the Reformed Baptist tradition, defending the Church in agreement with the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith understanding, and opposing the liberal and pragmatic theological tendencies in the Church of his day, Spurgeon preached to around 10,000,000 people, often up to 10 times each week at different places. Spurgeon was the pastor of the congregation of the New Park Street Chapel (later the Metropolitan Tabernacle) in London for 38 years, despite the fact he was part of several controversies with the Baptist Union of Great Britain and later had to leave the denomination. In 1857, he started a charity organization called Spurgeon's which now works globally, and he also founded Spurgeon's College, which was named after him posthumously. Spurgeon was a prolific author of many types of works, including sermons, an autobiography, commentaries, books on prayer, devotionals, magazines, poetry, hymns and more. This edition of Spurgeons Geese in Their Hoods is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and is illustrated with over a dozen pictures of Spurgeon and depictions of his sermons.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>The super-secret, international anti-terrorist organization known as WI-7, is on a mission to eliminate a North America-based, Iran-sponsored network of jihadists.

Bravo! Another nail-biter. Johnny Skull and his WI-7 team are on a mission to rid the United States of modern-day Nazis; an extremely vigorous goal, indeed. But who in the American government is working against them? Who in the underworld is working with them? The prologue sets the stage, then events happen at break-neck speed all the way to the end. Its like watching a spy-thriller movie. I wasnt able to turn the pages fast enough! I didnt want it to end An exciting, multi-plotted thriller. Timely, relevant, fast-paced, and thought provoking.

DO GEESE SEE GOD【電子書籍】[ Todd Hearon ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>"I don't care what you've done. I don't care what happens. I only want to be with you."</p> <p>Twins-orphaned as children and reunited after a separation of fourteen years, juvenile detention and alleged abuse in the New York State foster-care system-return to their hometown of Ithaca, New York, seeking vengeance and (in their minds) atonement out of love for the children they were, by the fractured adults they have become. In his fiction debut, poet and dramatist Todd Hearon assembles a troubled, and troubling, cast of characters, both complicated and compelling: the foster father, a former professional wrestler on the New York/New Jersey circuit during the sport's first "Golden Age" of television, who now makes his living as a voyeuristic pool repairman; the foster mother, a religious zealot desperately struggling to protect the children in her charge-thirty-seven to date-from the horrible fate she suspects is happening in her own home; the twins' biological parents: a young mother and adjunct professor, pining away for a life of the mind, who in the course of an unlikely adventure comes to better understand her heart; her husband, a celebrated architect, searching the frozen moments of a Central Park concert video for a shared future that exists, "if they can just get to it in time." No one escapes unscathed-and at least three don't make it out alive-in this expedition deep into the soul of love and longing, a modern mythic quest where even God "becomes too real to be believed."</p> <p>Todd Hearon has received a PEN/New England "Discovery" Award, the Friends of Literature Prize (Poetry magazine and the Poetry Foundation), the Rumi Prize in Poetry (Arts & Letters), the Campbell Corner Poetry Prize (Sarah Lawrence College), and the Paul Green Playwrights Prize (North Carolina Writers' Network). A Dobie-Paisano Fellow (University of Texas, Austin), he served as the Poet-in-Residence at Dartmouth College and the Frost Place.

<p>Margaret feels lost and alone, her family uprooted from their beloved Saskatchewan farm and relocated to London, where they're ridiculed for their patched clothes, bare feet and requests for credit at the local store.

<p>This subcourse is a continuation of the advanced correspondence course for the Veterinary Food Inspection Specialist. Subcourse MD0728 reviews the information in the basic level subcourse MD0712, Poultry I, and provides additional information. You may want to review material in MD0712 prior to starting this subcourse. Upon completion of this subcourse, you should have gained the knowledge needed to verify grades of poultry, a task necessary for determining the identity of poultry. Additional information in this lesson, although related to verifying grade, will also be helpful in the surveillance inspection of poultry products and also assist you in training others.</p> <p>CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION TO POULTRY * Section I. Poultry Inspection * Section II. Grading and Inspection Programs * Section III. Official Identification Marks for Ready-to Cook Poultry * Exercises * CHAPTER 2 - CLASSES, CONDITION, AND QUALITY OF POULTRY * Section I. Determining Class * Section II. Condition and Quality * Exercises * CHAPTER 3 - VERIFYING GRADES OF POULTRY * Section I. Examining Poultry For Quality Factors * Section II. Determining Quality Grade (Rating) * Section III. Grading Poultry Parts</p> <p>The primary reference for the grading of poultry is the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 7. The USDA, Agricultural Marketing Service, has prepared the Poultry Grading Manual as a guide for the uniform application of the United States (US) classes, standards, and grades of poultry as found in the CFR. For veterinary food inspection specialists to understand the proper grade verification process, it is essential for them to have knowledge of the structure of the bird and to know the different classes of poultry and the terminology used to designate these classes. The information in the Poultry Grading Manual is designed to help attain these objectives. In fact, much of the information presented in this subcourse is derived from this manual.</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。

Fly by Wire The Geese, the Glide, the Miracle on the Hudson【電子書籍】[ William Langewiesche ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>On January 15, 2009, a US Airways Airbus A320 had just taken off from LaGuardia Airport in New York when a flock of Canada geese collided with it, destroying both of its engines. Over the next three minutes, the plane's pilot, Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger, managed to glide it to a safe landing in the Hudson River. It was an instant media sensation, the "Miracle on the Hudson," and Captain Sully was the hero. But how much of the success of this dramatic landing can actually be credited to the genius of the pilot? To what extent is the "miracle" on the Hudson the result of extraordinaryーbut not widely known, and in some cases quite controversialーadvances in aviation and computer technology over the past twenty years?</p> <p>In <em>Fly by Wire</em>, one of America's greatest journalists takes us on a strange and unexpected journey into the fascinating world of advanced aviation. From the testing laboratories where engineers struggle to build a jet engine that can systematically resist bird attacks, through the creation of the A320 in France, to the political and social forces that have sought to minimize the impact of the revolutionary fly-by-wire technology, William Langewiesche assembles the untold stories necessary to truly understand the</p> <p>"miracle" on the Hudson, and makes us question our assumptions about human beings in</p> <p>modern aviation.</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。

タイトル: Wild Geese: A Collection of Nan Shepherd's Writing著者: Nan Shepherd出版社: Galileo Publishers出版日: 2020年04月15日新しい本新古品・未使用品。出版社からの新着。It will come as a very pleasant surprise to Nan Shepherd's growing following that there is a body of her work which has never been published in book form, and indeed will be entirely unknown outside a very small circle. The editor of this volume, Charlotte Peacock, found many of these gems when researching for the Nan Shepherd biography Into the Mountain, published by Galileo in 2017. The pieces that Peacock found include a brilliant and moving 10,000 word short story, "Descent from the Cross"; a series of 'field writings' which were written at the same time, and in the same style as, The Living Mountain; 15 poems, never seen before; a highly entertaining piece on the poetry of Hugh MacDiarmid and, from where the title of this collection arises, a haunting description of "Wild Geese in Glen Callater" a version of which also went into The Living Mountain.

<p><strong>A true-life love story of a mated pair of Canada geese and their goslings.</strong> <strong>Non-Fiction Gold Award from The Non Fiction Authors Association (NFAA).</strong> This heart-warming saga showcases a committed and protective mated pair of Canada geese who decided to nest in a corporate courtyard in California.

The Wild Geese【電子書籍】[ Stanley John Weyman ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The Wild Geese unfolds in early 18th-century Ireland, during George I's reign, capturing the political and social unrest of the time. The central figure, Colonel John Sullivan, is a man of honor and moral integrity, caught in the tumult of Irish identity, loyalty, and political conflict. The novel begins aboard the sloop Cormorant, where Sullivan engages in a conversation with Captain Augustin about duty and ethics in a lawless land. As they approach the troubled shores of Kerry, they encounter local figures torn between supporting the Jacobite cause and enduring English oppression. Sullivan's personal code of honor and reluctance to engage in violence starkly contrasts with the chaos that surrounds him. The narrative deepens with the complex relationships among the crew members, Sullivan, and his enigmatic servant, reflecting themes of loyalty, heritage, and duty. This opening sets the stage for a historical exploration of moral dilemmas, personal convictions, and the turbulent struggle for Irish independence.</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>Mistress of Geese is a collection of queer folk horror tales about isolation, loneliness, destructive powers of nature, magic and creatures lurking in the dark.</strong></p> <p>The undiscovered, occasionally almost uninhabited remote areas of the old European land of Croatia hold secrets only the bravest of women can find. The only question is, will they survive the discovery or be taken into darkness as the land demands?</p> <p>Jela lives in complete, self-imposed isolation, but when a malevolent curse falls down on the neighbouring town of Lepoglava, she needs toーquite simplyーfollow the geese.</p> <p>Bura lives in a remote village, hidden in the Velebit mountain range in the late 1950s, when she gets lost in the woods, which have suddenly gone unrecognizable.</p> <p>Four friends visiting the Istrakon sci-fi convention in Pazin get into magical trouble when they drink something they shouldn’t have touched.</p> <p>Luka and Kate believed they had a perfect plan to trick strict village rules. Years later, Ema and Laura go on a perfect vacation in Dalmatia… except that the powers lurking in the depths of the sea have other plans for them, and so does the village itself.</p> <p>Augusta is caught in a fairy tale in the worst possible wayーas a maiden sacrifice to the river dragon for the safety of her postapocalyptic village. But Lian, as it turns out, isn’t really a dragon and Augusta has something else to bargain with, other than her lifeーsomething much, much more dangerous.</p> <p><em>The collection contains 5 novelletes in 65k words.</em></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。
