You'll discover the wrecks of the great sailing ship John Elliott Thayer, the paddlewheel steamer Golden City, and the US submarine H-I -- almost-forgotten incidents in Baja's history. Exact locations are provided for Marisla Seamount, the most famous scuba diving location in the Sea of Cortez, and to many other lesser-known locations like Ben's Rock and the Islas de San Benito.

Book Synopsis Adventure Finance by : Aunnie Patton Power
Download or read book Adventure Finance written by Aunnie Patton Power and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-28 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The venture capital model doesn’t work—at least not for 99% of startups and small businesses. In this 99% are a lot of companies with incredible potential: businesses headed by female founders and those from diverse racial backgrounds, organizations headquartered outside of venture capital hubs, and purpose-driven enterprises that are creating social and environmental impact alongside financial success. Counter to what the press-savvy venture capital world would have you believe, there are a lot of funding options out there for startups and small businesses. Adventure Finance is designed to help you understand some of these options, and walk you through real examples of how other founders and funders have put them to use. In simple, approachable language, the book breaks down the different types of funding options available from revenue-based financing to recoverable grants to redeemable equity to distributed ownership and more. Through a mix of storytelling and frameworks, based on a decade of research and experience in investing in early-stage companies, this book will give you the ability to determine how each of these structures can contribute to your own funding journey. The goal for this book is to shift the conversation about startup funding and help founders and funders widen the spectrum of “mainstream” investment options in order to make the venture financing world more inclusive and purpose-driven.
Book Synopsis A Very Spectrum Christmas: Celebrating Seasonal Software on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum by : Thomas A. Christie
Download or read book A Very Spectrum Christmas: Celebrating Seasonal Software on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum written by Thomas A. Christie and published by Extremis Publishing Limited. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the 1980s, thousands of British children were lucky enough to discover a Sinclair ZX Spectrum under their Christmas trees and soon found their eyes opened to a virtual world of wonder. But Santa Claus did more than deliver computers - sometimes he appeared on them, too. From the author of "The Spectrum of Adventure" and "A Righteously Awesome Eighties Christmas", this book delves into the Spectrum's extraordinary pantheon of seasonal games: the good, the bad, the surprising, the unabashedly surreal and the occasionally rather tenuous. From the machine's formative days in the early eighties right through to the latest independent releases, "A Very Spectrum Christmas" takes a look at what makes a truly memorable festive title for the vintage home micro-computer... as well as unearthing a few games that may have become lost in the mists of Christmas past for good reason. Fully illustrated with colour screenshots of all the games under discussion, "A Very Spectrum Christmas" is a treasure trove of yuletide software experiences-where eighties nostalgia collides with modern day homebrew innovation with frequently unexpected results!
Download or read book Robbie's World written by Cindy Gelormini and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-30 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet Robbie the Penguin! While Robbie is in pre-school his teacher notices that he doesn't talk, and he really likes to rock. After visiting the Doctor he is diagnosed with Autism and begins to attend a special school. Follow him on his adventures where he goes swimming, goes to a parade and the fireworks, eats ice cream, and runs away a lot! As you're laughing you'll also be learning a lot about kids with Autism. Cindy Gelormini is the Author and Illustrator of the "Robbie's World" trilogy and is Robbie's Mom. She works in the Interior Design field where she began as a decorative artist painting children's murals. She was also a singer songwriter and worship leader, so she wrote the books like rhyming lyrics. For four years she followed Robbie's life on YouTube on their video blog called "Robbie and Me: Autism Reality", which can still be viewed to this day. When Robbie went to heaven on November 7, 2017, penguins in the form of toys and paperweights began to show up in unlikely places. Weeks later when they cleaned out Robbie's room in his group home they found in his DVD player the last movie Robbie ever watched..."Happy Feet" about dancing penguins! They realized they were getting messages from heaven. Cindy wanted to continue Robbie's story to help bring love, understanding and acceptance to the Autism Community, so she wrote Robbie's story as a children's book series telling stories from when he was a little boy. The idea of him being a penguin though, that was Robbie's idea.

Book Synopsis Adventure Capitalism by : Raymond Craib
Download or read book Adventure Capitalism written by Raymond Craib and published by PM Press. This book was released on 2022-07-05 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine a capitalist paradise. An island utopia governed solely by the rules of the market and inspired by the fictions of Ayn Rand and Robinson Crusoe. Sound far-fetched? It may not be. The past half century is littered with the remains of such experiments in what Raymond Craib calls “libertarian exit.” Often dismissed as little more than the dreams of crazy, rich Caucasians, exit strategies have been tried out from the southwest Pacific to the Caribbean, from the North Sea to the high seas, often with dire consequences for local inhabitants. Based on research in archives in the US, the UK, and Vanuatu, as well as in FBI files acquired through the Freedom of Information Act, Craib explores in careful detail the ideology and practice of libertarian exit and its place in the histories of contemporary capitalism, decolonization, empire, and oceans and islands. Adventure Capitalism is a global history that intersects with an array of figures: Fidel Castro and the Koch brothers, American segregationists and Melanesian socialists, Honolulu-based real estate speculators and British Special Branch spies, soldiers of fortune and English lords, Orange County engineers and Tongan navigators, CIA operatives and CBS news executives, and a new breed of techno-utopians and an old guard of Honduran coup leaders. This is not only a history of our time but, given the new iterations of privatized exit—seasteads, free private cities, and space colonization—it is also a history of our future.
Book Synopsis The Adventures of Form and Content by : Albert Goldbarth
Download or read book The Adventures of Form and Content written by Albert Goldbarth and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2017-01-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An astounding work of doubles by Albert Goldbarth, “a dazzling virtuoso who can break your heart” (Joyce Carol Oates) Albert Goldbarth’s first book of essays in a decade, The Adventures of Form and Content is about the mysteries of dualities, the selves we all carry inside, the multiverses that we are. This collection takes its shape from the ACE Doubles format of the 1950s: turn this book one way, and read about the checkered history of those sci-fi and pulp fictions, or about the erotic poetry of Catullus and the gravelly songs of Springsteen, or about the high gods and the low-down blues, a city of the holy and of the sinful; turn this book the other way, and read about prehistoric cave artists and NASA astronauts, or about illness and health, or about the discovery of planets and the discovery of oneself inside an essay, or about soul ships and space ships, the dead and the living; or turn the book any way you want, and this book becomes an adventure of author and reader, form and content. Goldbarth’s essays have pioneered and inspired new forms of nonfiction writing for thirty years. Robert Atwan, the series editor for The Best American Essays, praises his work by stating, “These essays are a whole new breed . . . Goldbarth has spliced strands of the old genre with a powerful new genre—and the results are miraculous.” The Adventures of Form and Content is a new, ingenious work of hilarity and humanity that reminds us of the capabilities and impossibilities of art.
