Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Julianne Sloan is a fiery businesswoman consumed by her cutthroat career in television production when an assignment introduces her to Elisa Tate. Elisa is drowning in a sea of violence at the hands of a deranged husband. Unlikely allies, these women engage in a plot to expose a monstrous secret, using the power of the television spotlight. Together, they hope to bring awareness to the crisis of women trapped in heinous circumstances, tortured by those they love and hindered by unforgiving judgment. Julianne must stand up to the men at the studio and sometimes put herself in dangerous situations in the name of the greater good. She and Elisa become driven by their project, letting nothing slow them down. But the more involved they get, the more their lives spin out of control. They have revealed a matrix of sexual exploitation and personal oppression that causes them to scrutinize their own love lives and challenge their perspectives on love, lust, domination, and victimization. With any luck, their sacrifices will teach other women how to fight back, but Julianne and Elisa have to win the battle first.

Download or read book Casting Alpha written by James R. Kelly and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2002 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Casting Alpha is the story about a platoon of Marine Corps amtrac crewmen who served during the Vietnam War. Kelly, a former trac rat, has wanted to write about his unit since he returned from Vietnam in 1967. He wanted Casting Alpha to be different; not just another blood and guts book about Vietnam. Casting Alphais the story of young Marines sharing a common goal: getting home in one piece. It's the story of their daily activities and their feelings combined with the sense of helplessness they endured as they carried out their sworn duty. Kelly opened his Vietnam photo album and searched the faces on now faded photographs. Each one transported Kelly back thirty-five years to a time in his life that he refers to as his personal twilight zone. The young faces in the photographs brought back memories, memories of situations and occurrences that seemed to have happened only yesterday. A few memories were of comical situations while others reflect sadness, cruelty, and anger. One memory most trac rats can't forget is the anxiety associated with thoughts of enemy land mines and snipers. Kelly named that anxiety "the big wait." Discover what it was like to be a crewman aboard an amtrac during the Vietnam War. Feel the anxiety build as you climb into the driver's seat, start the engine, and begin a mission into no-man's land on roads and trails that have been previously visited by enemy soldiers. Are land mines in your path? Will your number be up today? The big wait will take control of your senses as you read Casting Alpha.

Book Synopsis Better Cities, Better World by : Catherine Farvacque-Vitkovic
Download or read book Better Cities, Better World written by Catherine Farvacque-Vitkovic and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The planet is becoming increasingly urban. In many ways, the urbanization wave and the unprecedented urban growth of the past 20 years have created a sense of urgency and an impetus for change. Some 54 percent of the world population—3.9 billion people—lives in urban areas today; thus, it has become clear that “business as usual†? is no longer possible. This new configuration places great expectations on local governments. While central governments are subject to instability and political changes, local governments are seen as more inclined to stay the course. Because they are closer to the people, the voice of the people is more clearly heard for a truly democratic debate over the choice of neighborhood investments and city-wide policies and programs, as well as the decision process on the use of public funds and taxpayers’ money. In a context of skewed financial resources and complex urban challenges—which range from the provision of basic traditional municipal services to the “newer†? agenda of social inclusion, economic development, city branding, emergency response, smart technologies, and green investment—more cities are searching for more effective and innovative ways to deal with new and old problems. Better Cities, Better World: A Handbook on Local Governments Self-Assessments is at the heart of this debate. It recognizes the complex past, current, and future challenges that cities face and outlines a bottom-line, no-nonsense framework for data-based policy dialogue and action; a common language that, for the first time, helps connect the dots between public investments programming (Urban Audit/Self-Assessment) and financing (Municipal Finances Self-Assessment). It helps address two key questions, too often bypassed when it comes to municipal infrastructure and services financing: Are we doing the right things? Are we doing things right? Better Cities, Better World: A Handbook on Local Governments Self-Assessments offers a bit of everything for everyone. • Central governments will be attracted by the purposefulness and clarity of these tools, their impact on local government capacity and performance building, and how they improve the implementation of transformative actions for policy change. • City leaders and policy makers will find the sections on objectives and content instructive and informative, with each issue placed in its context, and strong connections between data and municipal action. • Municipal staff in charge of day-to-day management will find that the sections on tasks and the detailed step-by-step walk through the process give them the pragmatic knowhow that they need. • Cities’ partners—such as bilateral and multilateral agencies, banks and funds, utility companies, civil society, and private operators—will find the foundations for more effective collaborative partnerships.
