Описание: In "Follow Your Dreams and Change Your Life", author Clinton Mitchell, an attorney and entrepreneur from the inner-city of Miami, Florida, shares the four common traits of successful people and the five keys to "Move from a dreamer to a dream maker." While Mitchell speaks specifically to millennials, his book is for people looking to make a change in their lives, accomplish their goals and seize their dreams. This book provides life lessons, rooted in both personal stories and public examples that will help you to "Change Your Life."
Описание: This book presents two analyses, the first of which involves the search for a new heavy charged gauge boson, a so-called W' boson. This new gauge boson is predicted by some theories extending the Standard Model gauge group to solve some of its conceptual problems. Decays of the W' boson in final states with a lepton (?± = e± , µ±) and the corresponding (anti-)neutrino are considered. Data collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2015 at a center of mass energy of ?s =13 TeV is used for the analysis. In turn, the second analysis presents a measurement of the double-differential cross section of the process pp->Z/gamma^* + X -> l^+l^- + X, including a gamma gamma induced contribution, at a center of mass energy of sqrt{s} = 8 TeV. The measurement is performed in an invariant mass region of 116 GeV to 1500 GeV as a function of invariant mass and absolute rapidity of the l^+l^-- pair, and as a function of invariant mass and pseudorapidity separation of the l^+l^-- pair. The data analyzed was recorded by the ATLAS experiment in 2012 and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 20.3/fb. It is expected that the measured cross sections are sensitive to the PDFs at very high values of the Bjorken-x scaling variable, and to the photon structure of the proton.
Описание: The work contains selected and thoroughly reviewed research papers of the topics Operations Management, Supply Chain Management, Digitalization, Sustainability, Transportation Management, Process Management, Risk Management, Corporate Social Responsibility and Governance.

Описание: The United States entered World War I in April of 1917, breaking a tradition of isolationism from European affairs that stretched back to the founding of the nation. The founding fathers had created a system based on the distrust of a standing army and the arms industry, so the United States stepped into the World War wholly unprepared. The war had been raging in Europe for nearly three years, and the warring nations had embraced technology to perfect killing by mass production. Once the United States made the decision to declare war, the government found itself ill prepared for the massive logistical effort required to stand up, equip and train an army for deployment to fight a war on foreign shores. Some members of Michigan's fledgling auto industry had advocated for preparedness as Europe plunged into war, and once the US officially entered the war, the auto industry rose to the challenge and answered the nation's call for equipment and munitions. The effort was, in the words of the Ordnance Corps "a remarkable performance," however most of the products arrived too late to have an impact on the outcome of the war. After WWI, politicians and historians criticized many of the companies who made products for the war effort for spending large amounts of taxpayer's money with little effect, and branded them as "Merchants of Death." However, the situation was not due to any incompetence or greed on the part of the manufacturers, but because the United States was not at war long enough to overcome an unprepared and deeply flawed government acquisition system. Focusing on the automotive industry in southeast Michigan using period industry journals and surviving primary source documents from government agencies and the automotive industry, a different picture emerges. It is an image of corporate America where industry leaders volunteer their expertise for little or no compensation, working with the government to build an arms industry in less than a years' time. It was not a perfect effort, with mistakes made by all parties involved. The sudden collapse of Germany in October 1918 ended the effort before it was able to make a real impact on the outcome of the war, giving the illusion of a wasted effort.

Описание: In the early twentieth century, publicly staged productions of significant historical, political, and religious events became increasingly popular - and increasingly grand - in Ireland. These public pageants, a sort of precursor to today’s opening ceremonies at the Olympic games, mobilized huge numbers of citizens to present elaborately staged versions of Irish identity based on both history and myth. Complete with marching bands, costumes, fireworks, and mock battles, these spectacles were suffused with political and national significance.Dean explores the historical significance of these pageants, explaining how their popularity correlated to political or religious imperatives in twentieth century Ireland. She uncovers unpublished archival findings to present scripts, programs, and articles covering these events. The book also includes over thirty photographs of pageants, program covers, and detailed designs for costumes to convey the grandeur of the historical pageants at the beginning of the centuryand their decline in production standards in the 1970s and 1980s. Tracing the Irish historical pageant phenomenon through the twentieth century, Dean presents a nation contending with the violence and political upheaval of the present by reimagining the past.
A fascinating ethnographic study of the cultural politics of urban redevelopment in Kampung Serani, one Penang community, in the 1990s. Through interviews, newspaper reports, and other records, Goh considers changing notions of culture, ethnic identity, and urban space.

Описание: More than perhaps any other major filmmaker, Martin Scorsese has grappled with the idea of the American Dream. His movies are full of working-class strivers hoping for a better life, from the titular waitress and aspiring singer of Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore to the scrappy Irish immigrants of Gangs of New York. And in films as varied as Casino, The Aviator, and The Wolf of Wall Street, he vividly displays the glamour and power that can come with the fulfillment of that dream, but he also shows how it can turn into a nightmare of violence, corruption, and greed. This book is the first study of Scorsese's profound ambivalence toward the American Dream, the ways it drives some men and women to aspire to greatness, but leaves others seduced and abandoned. Showing that Scorsese understands the American dream in terms of a tension between provincialism and cosmopolitanism, Jim Cullen offers a new lens through which to view such seemingly atypical Scorsese films as The Age of Innocence, Hugo, and Kundun. Fast-paced, instructive, and resonant, Martin Scorsese and the American Dream illuminates an important dimension of our national life and how a great artist has brought it into focus.

Описание: Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi (b. 1960) is as famous for his remarkable films as for his courageous defiance of Iran's state censorship. Panahi achieved international recognition with his feature film debut, The White Balloon, the first Iranian film to receive an award at the Cannes Film Festival. His subsequent films—The Mirror, The Circle, and Offside—continue to receive acclaim throughout the world, yet they remain largely unseen in his own country due to years of conflict with the Iranian government. In spite of multiple arrests, a brief imprisonment, and a ban on making movies and giving interviews, Panahi speaks openly and passionately in this unique, invaluable collection of twenty-five interviews, open letters, and his own court statement, in which he makes a compelling case for artistic freedom and humanism. Many of these documents have been translated from Persian and appear in English for the first time, including an interview done exclusively for this volume. In sparkling, lively interviews, Panahi reveals his influences, politics, and filmmaking practices. He explains the challenges he faces while working within (and often around) Iran's heavily restricted film industry, providing the reader a unique vantage point from which to consider Iranian cinema and society.
