Book Synopsis Strength from the Waters by : James V. Mestaz
Download or read book Strength from the Waters written by James V. Mestaz and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2022-10 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strength from the Waters is an environmental and social history that frames economic development, environmental concerns, and Indigenous mobilization within the context of a timeless issue: access to water. Between 1927 and 1970 the Mayo people--an Indigenous group in northwestern Mexico--confronted changing access to the largest freshwater source in the region, the Fuerte River. In Strength from the Waters James V. Mestaz demonstrates how the Mayo people used newly available opportunities such as irrigation laws, land reform, and cooperatives to maintain their connection to their river system and protect their Indigenous identity. By using irrigation technologies to increase crop production and protect lands from outsiders trying to claim it as fallow, the Mayo of northern Sinaloa simultaneously preserved their identity by continuing to conduct traditional religious rituals that paid homage to the Fuerte River. This shift in approach to both new technologies and natural resources promoted their physical and cultural survival and ensured a reciprocal connection to the Fuerte River, which bound them together as Mayo. Mestaz examines this changing link between hydraulic technology and Mayo tradition to reconsider the importance of water in relation to the state's control of the river and the ways the natural landscape transformed relations between individuals and the state, altering the social, political, ecological, and ethnic dynamics within several Indigenous villages. Strength from the Waters significantly contributes to contemporary Mexicanist scholarship by using an environmental and ethnohistorical approach to water access, Indigenous identity, and natural resource management to interrogate Mexican modernity in the twentieth century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divorced, single mom, college student – Melissa didn’t always feel like she would be topping the list of intriguing women to date. But somehow once she found herself on the open market, there seemed to be a steady flood of interested men. Maybe it was the fact that she was a newly minted triathlete, very active, and always up for fun adventures? Perhaps the men liked that she would soon be a registered dental hygienist with a promising career? Whatever it was, Melissa’s life was busy in a good way and she was loving it! But there was a nagging loneliness that crept in. She really didn’t want to be single forever. Did God have a plan in mind for her? When she meets a man that seems just about perfect, the doubts rise to a level of near debilitation. Can they really make this work, and does she deserve it? Yet God always seems to find a way to reassure her that He is there and aware of her if she will only listen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young widow Emma Chapman works as a paralegal contractor in Arizona. While out riding her bike one day, she is hit with a golf cart and unjustly vilified in the newspaper. Since her job is coming to an end and thinking that getting away would be a good idea, Emma plans a trip to England where she has always wanted to take a hiking tour. Although Emma escapes the public's negative opinion back in the United States, she finds herself trapped in a variety of other difficult, and even dangerous, situations in England. She encounters numerous obstacles and devious individuals. In the Cotswold town of Cav Neumont, Emma is supposed to meet Lord Haversham, also a widower. Little does she know that instead she meets an impersonator. Emma also faces the prejudice and arrogance of some British royal ladies, the devious shenanigans of Lord Haversham's ex-wife, and a solo hiking tour that leaves her stranded with a broken ankle for three days until a mysterious stranger rescues her. Can Emma find happiness -- and perhaps even love -- in this strange and beautiful land?

Book Synopsis The Pneumatic Flow Mixing Method by : Masaki Kitazume
Download or read book The Pneumatic Flow Mixing Method written by Masaki Kitazume and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-11-03 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pneumatic flow mixing method was developed to stabilize dredged soil and surplus soil for promoting their beneficial use in 1999. The pneumatic flow mixing method is a new type of the ex-situ cement stabilization techniques, in which dredged soil and surplus soil is mixed with a relatively small amount of chemical binder without any mixing paddles and blades in a pipeline. When a relatively large amount of compressed air is injected into the pipeline, soil can be separated into small blocks. When binder is injected into the pipeline, the soil block and binder are thoroughly mixed by means of turbulent flow generated in the soil block during transporting. As this method has many benefits − rapid and large scale execution can be conducted with low cost − it has been applied to many land reclamation projects, backfilling behind earth retaining wall projects and shallow stabilization projects using dredged soils and surplus soils. The book presents the state of the art in the pneumatic flow mixing method, and covers recent technologies, research activities and know-how in machinery, design, construction technology and quality control and assurance. The Pneumatic Flow Mixing Method is a useful reference tool for engineers and researchers involved in admixture stabilization technology everywhere, regardless of local soil conditions and a variety in applications.
