Описание:
Billions of fresh-cut flowers are flown into the United States every year, allowing Americans to choose from a broad array of blooms regardless of the season. Favored Flowers is a lively investigation of the worldwide production and distribution of fresh-cut flowers and their consumption in the New York metropolitan area. In an ethnography filled with roses, orchids, and gerberas, flower auctions, new hybrids, and new logistical systems, Catherine Ziegler unravels the economic and cultural strands of the global flower market. She provides an historical overview of the development of the cut flower industry in New York from the late nineteenth century to 1970, and on to its ultimate transformation from a domestic to a global industry. As she points out, cut flowers serve no utilitarian purpose; rather, they signal consumers’ social and cultural decisions about expressing love, mourning, status, and identity. Ziegler shows how consumer behavior and choices have changed over time and how they are shaped by the media, by the types of available flowers, and by flower retailing.
Ziegler interviewed more than 250 people as she followed flowers along the full length of the commodity chain, from cuttings in Europe and Latin America to vases in and around New York. She examines the daily experiences of flower growers in the Netherlands and Ecuador, two leading exporters of flowers to the United States. Primary focus, though, is on others in the commodity chain: exporters, importers, wholesalers, and retailers. She follows their activities as they respond to changing competition, supply, and consumer behavior in a market characterized by risk, volatility, and imperfect knowledge. By tracing changes in the wholesale and retail systems, she shows the recent development of two complementary commodity chains in New York and the United States generally. One leads to a high-end luxury market served by specialty florists and designers, and the other to a lower-priced mass market served by chain groceries, corner delis, and retail superstores.

Pastor Adam McCain and Chief of Police Scott Silverii, PhD combine their experiences to write about a subject that has profoundly influenced each of their lives; obscurity. Both men were called by God to leave highly successful seasons in their respective careers with preconceived expectations for obedience.
While Adam's spirit-led influence allowed him to rise to the top of a Christian occupation as a bible college president and global speaker, Scott's command leadership promoted him to a top law enforcement position and national subject matter expert. Still, both heard the same calling to leave their esteemed careers and serve God in furthering the kingdom.
Both men soon realized that their expressions of "trading up" on their expectation of God's calling actually led each into seasons of obscurity. It was through their individual walks in the wilderness that they received their true calling, which coincidently wasn't what either expected.
A simple Sunday visit to Adam's church ignited a friendship, a shared testimony and a co-authoring opportunity to guide you through what you may perceive as a dark time in life when in reality, it is the preparation for an incredible gifting and the activation of your new anointing in life. Learn how to Embrace the Season, Thrive in Obscurity, and Activate your Purpose in this exciting promise from God, and always remember that you are Favored, Not Forgotten.

From rejection to personal power
Growing up, rejected by her father and losing members of her family, Courtney believed she had a purpose for her life. That purpose would not come without a price. From her earliest years, she knew she was different sexually. Confused, depressed, and afraid of a world that did not welcome her, Courtney lived through depression, disappointment, racism, and sexuality. Building up courage, strength, and trust in others, she fought her way through her pain and failures. She shifted her mind from thoughts of suicide to thoughts of success. Focused on getting her life together and healing the wounds of her past, she began to grow and walk in her purpose. She became Unapologetically Favored. This is her story.
The wetlands of the San Juan Basin in Central Veracruz, Mexico, have been a favored place since the fifth century A.D., when Prehispanic people built an extensive network of canals and raised fields that allowed for almost year-round agriculture. Alfred Siemens' discovery of the remains of this network in the 1970s led him to uncover fifteen centuries of land-use history in the region. This book contains a full record of his findings.
Siemens organizes his history of the San Juan Basin around the question: What relationships exist between Prehispanic agriculture and the production systems of the tropical lowlands in our own time? This focus allows him to chart the changes in human perceptions and uses of the landscape, from the Prehispanic wetland agricultural system to the drained pastures of today's cattle ranches.
Amplified with air oblique photography, maps, and tables, and enriched with data from archaeology and colonial archives, this is an authoritative historical geography of a wetland landscape. Or, in the author's more modest words, "It seems to me that what I have here is a biography of a swamp."
