Описание: El lanzador de relevo mas exitoso de todos los tiempos comparte su extraordinaria historia de supervivencia, amor y beisbol. Mariano Rivera, el hombre que intimido a miles de bateadores con tan solo abrir la puerta del "bullpen," comenzo su increible viaje como el hijo de un pobre pescador panameno. Cuando primeramente los Yankees lo reclutaron, ni siquiera poseia su propio guante. El penso que podria ser un buen mecanico. Cuando lo descubrieron, nunca antes habia volado en un avion, nunca habia oido hablar de Babe Ruth, no hablaba ingles, ni tampoco se imaginaba como era Tampa, la ciudad hacia donde iba para comenzar una carrera que lo convertiria en uno de los mas iconicos del beisbol. Lo que si sabia: que amaba a su familia y su entonces novia, Clara; que podia confiar en el Senor para guiarlo; y que podia lanzar una pelota exactamente donde el queria, todo el tiempo. Con sorprendente candor, Rivera relata la historia de los campeonatos, los jefes (incluyendo El Jefe), las rivalidades y las luchas de ser pelotero latino en los Estados Unidos, y como conservar los valores cristianos dentro del atletismo profesional. El trece veces pelatoro del Juego de Estrellas habla de su impulso de ganar; los secretos detras de su legendaria compostura; la historia de como descubrio su recta cortada; lo nunca antes contado sobre el lanzamiento de la novena entrada del septimo juego de la Serie Mundial de 2001; y por que el momento mas bajo de su carrera se convirtio en una de sus mas grandes bendiciones. Cuando Rivera se retiro, todo el mundo lo vio y aplaudio. En "El cerrador," " llegamos a una aun mayor apreciacion de una leyenda construida desde cero. "

Описание: The greatest relief pitcher of all time shares his extraordinary story of survival, love, and baseball. Mariano Rivera, the man who intimidated thousands of batters merely by opening a bullpen door, began his incredible journey as the son of a poor Panamanian fisherman. When first scouted by the Yankees, he didn't even own his own glove. He thought he might make a good mechanic. When discovered, he had never flown in an airplane, had never heard of Babe Ruth, spoke no English, and couldn't imagine Tampa, the city where he was headed to begin a career that would become one of baseball's most iconic. What he did know: that he loved his family and his then girlfriend, Clara, that he could trust in the Lord to guide him, and that he could throw a baseball exactly where he wanted to, every time. With astonishing candor, Rivera tells the story of the championships, the bosses (including The Boss), the rivalries, and the struggles of being a Latino baseball player in the United States and of maintaining Christian values in professional athletics. The thirteen-time All-Star discusses his drive to win; the secrets behind his legendary composure; the story of how he discovered his cut fastball; the untold, pitch-by-pitch account of the ninth inning of Game 7 in the 2001 World Series; and why the lowest moment of his career became one of his greatest blessings. In The Closer, Rivera takes readers into the Yankee clubhouse, where his teammates are his brothers. But he also takes us on that jog from the bullpen to the mound, where the game -- or the season -- rests squarely on his shoulders. We come to understand the laserlike focus that is his hallmark, and how his faith and his family kept his feet firmly on the pitching rubber. Many of the tools he used so consistently and gracefully came from what was inside him for a very long time -- his deep passion for life; his enduring commitment to Clara, whom he met in kindergarten; and his innate sense for getting out of a jam. When Rivera retired, the whole world watched -- and cheered. In The Closer, we come to an even greater appreciation of a legend built from the ground up.

Описание: Renewable energy plays an important role in contributing to the transition toward low-carbon development growth, in enhancing technology diversification and hedging against fuel price volatility, in strengthening economic growth, and in facilitating access to electricity. The global trends indicate a growing commitment to renewable energy development from developed and developing countries in both the introduction of specific policy levers and investment flows. Developing countries have now a long history of designing and implementing specific policy and regulatory instruments to promote renewable energy. Today, feed-in tariff policies are being implemented in about 25 developing countries and quantity based instruments, most notably auction mechanisms, are increasingly being adopted by upper middle income countries. This paper summarizes the results of a recent review of the emerging experience with the design and implementation of price and quota based instruments to promote renewable energy in a sample of six representative developing countries and transition economies. The paper discusses the importance of a tailor-made approach to policy design and identifies the basic elements that have proven instrumental to policy effectiveness, including adequate tariff levels, long term policy or contractual commitments, mandatory access to the grid and incremental cost pass-through. Ultimately, a low carbon development growth in the developing world depends on the availability of resources to finance the solutions that exhibit incremental costs. Policies introduced to support renewable energy development should be designed and introduced in combination with strategies that clearly identify sources of finance and establish a sustainable incremental cost recovery mechanism (for example, using concessional financial flows from developed countries to leverage private financing, strengthening the performance of utilities and distribution companies, or allowing the partial pass-through of incremental costs to consumer tariffs with a differentiated burden sharing that protects the poor). Without question, policy makers will have to ensure that the design of different policy mechanisms and the policy mix per se deliver renewable energy targets with the lowest possible incremental costs and volume of subsidies.

Описание: Eating Shakespeare provides a constructive critical analysis of the issue of Shakespeare and globalization and revisits understandings of interculturalism, otherness, hybridity and cultural (in)authenticity. Featuring scholarly essays as well as interviews and conversation pieces with creatives – including Geraldo Carneiro, Fernando Yamamoto, Diana Henderson, Mark Thornton Burnett, Samir Bhamra, Tajpal Rathore, Samran Rathore and Paul Heritage – it offers a timely and fruitful discourse between global Shakespearean theory and practice.
The volume uniquely establishes and implements a conceptual model inspired by non-European thought, thereby confronting a central concern in the field of Global Shakespeare: the issue of Europe operating as a geographical and cultural ‘centre’ that still dominates the study of Shakespearean translations and adaptations from a ‘periphery’ of world-wide localities. With its origins in 20th-century Brazilian modernism, the concept of ‘Cultural Anthropophagy’ is advanced by the authors as an original methodology within the field currently understood as ‘Global Shakespeare’. Through a broad range of examples drawn from theatre, film and education, and from both within Brazil and beyond, the volume offers illuminating perspectives on what Global Shakespeare may mean today.
