'Devil's Tor', first published in 1932, is the undoubted masterpiece of David Lindsay. Many of the extraordinary and disturbing themes of his first and most famous work, 'A Voyage to Arcturus' (1920), are explored more deeply and expressed more clearly in this book. The story describes the experiences and mental processes of various people drawn by an active Fate to Devil's Tor, a minor Dartmoor height. Lives are transformed, shattered and ended by forces that can remake stars and galaxies. Nowhere in printed English is the working of the Unseen in living minds more vividly drawn than in David Lindsay; and nowhere in Lindsay more magnificently than in 'Devil's Tor'.

In 2012, he became an embedded member of a Chilean Dakar team with unprecedented access to the rally; now he shares the story of his experiences. This firsthand account describes the three grueling weeks he lived with the tight-knit Dakar community as they battled the brutal conditions in the ultimate long-distance, off-road competition. Zero to Sixty shares stories of crossing the driest deserts on the planet, visiting lush vineyards and wine regions, getting lost on mountain passes, encountering earthquakes and landslides, enduring drastic temperature changes, and experiencing altitude sickness at more than 15,500 feet. Zero to Sixty offers a unique, behind-the-scenes look at the legendary Dakar Rally, its people and its history, providing insight as to what drives these athletes to live on the edge of disaster while attempting to finish what is the world's deadliest sporting event.

Inspired by memories of living in the mountain community of Cohasset, California during my preteen years, this fictional novel portrays not only my life on the ridge, but the life of four other boys that preceded me. To give credibility to each story segment, actual historical events and methods are used to accomplish tasks, specific to the period. The book is enhanced by the drawings of Richard Colby, retired art professor, illustrating scenes depicted in my text. Messages of right versus wrong, wisdom from mentors among the community and family values are woven throughout the fabric of the novel. The final fictional Chapters, a part of my visualization, is an overall representation of how life can be both successful and rewarding regardless of adverse situations, as long as one has a sense of being self reliant with respect for his fellow man.

"A Fine Chaos" details the three years it took to purchase and renovate Castillo Verde. It describes the trials and tribulations encountered working through Chilean bureaucracy to obtain the necessary rights to own the property and its sources of water, and then the long struggle to restore the castle and its surrounding gardens to their former glory. Join us as we learn about Chile, its people, culture, customs and history. Meet our new Chilean friends, and see through their eyes the renewed confidence and hope that is driving one of the most successful economic and cultural rebirths in South America. And experience first-hand how living in a foreign country can change your life. Much more than a travel book or house renovation documentary, "A Fine Chaos" provides insight, fact and opinion on a country and a continent about which much of the world knows very little.

Diese Studie ist kurz vor der Klimakonferenz 2009 der Vereinten Nationen in Kopenhagen/Dänemark entstanden. Nach den ersten beiden Zuteilungsperioden (2005-2007 und 2008-2012) des europäischen CO2-Emissionshandelssystems und dem Auslaufen des Kyoto-Protokolls Ende 2012 wird es ab 2013 deutlich verschärfte Regelungen und Mechanismen für die betroffenen Wirtschaftsbereiche geben, unabhängig davon, ob es ein globales Nachfolgeabkommen des Kyoto-Protokolls geben wird oder nicht. Denn die EU hat sich weiterhin einem verstärkten Kampf gegen die Klimaerwärmung verschrieben.Ziel dieser Studie ist es, einen umfassenden Überblick der aus dem Emissionshandel resultierenden Auswirkungen auf die betroffenen Wirtschaftsbereiche in Deutschland zu geben. Nach der Darstellung der Hintergründe werden Möglichkeiten aufgezeigt, wie sich die Unternehmen auf die zukünftigen Herausforderungen des CO2-Emissionshandels einstellen können, um weiterhin wettbewerbsfähig bleiben zu können.Dazu werden zunächst die ökonomischen Prinzipien der verschiedenen umweltpolitischen Instrumente vorgestellt. Anschließend folgt die Darstellung des zur Einführung des Emissionshandelssystems notwendigen rechtlichen Rahmens, angefangen mit dem internationalen Kyoto-Protokoll über die europäische Richtlinie bis hin zur Umsetzung im deutschen Recht. Die praktische Anwendung dieser theoretischen Hintergründe wird daraufhin erläutert. Nachdem zunächst die prinzipielle Funktionsweise des CO2-Emissionshandels aufgezeigt wird, erfolgt anschließend eine Darstellung der betroffenen Parteien und ihrer Aufgaben. Zusätzlich wird das Emissionshandelsregister erklärt, durch das der eigentliche Handel mit CO2-Zertifikaten erst ermöglicht wird.Auf Grundlage der theoretischen und praktischen Vorarbeiten werden die Auswirkungen des CO2-Emissionshandels auf die teilnehmenden Unternehmen analysiert und mögliche Anpassungen aufgezeigt. Dabei erfolgt eine Unterteilung zwischen der Energiewirtschaft und der Industrie. Der Fokus bei den Energieversorgungsunternehmen liegt auf der vom Emissionshandel beeinflussten Strompreisgestaltung sowie den Anpassungsmöglichkeiten ihres Kraftwerkparks. Für die Industrieunternehmen wird insbesondere auf die Kosten- und globalen Wettbewerbsrisiken aufgrund steigender Kosten durch den Emissionshandel eingegangen.Abschließend werden die Ergebnisse einer vom Bundeswirtschaftsministerium beauftragten Studie dargestellt, die die Auswirkungen des Emissionshandels über die betroffenen Sektoren hinaus auf die Gesamtwirtschaft Deutschlands nach 2013 aufzeigen.

The second volume to PENCIL DRAWINGS, by David J. Vanderpool, this 149 page book shows how the artist completed 16 drawings of men who have entered his life through the years. Unlike volume one of this series,"Pencil Drawings - a look into drawing portraits", which was presented entirely in a journal-style format, here only the first four drawings featured keep to that format. The remaining drawings will not only show the step-by-step process it took to complete each drawing, but answers a question that was submitted just for that drawing. With masterfully crafted graphite pencil drawings at their best, this book is an excellent addition to those who have already collected Volume 1. In fact - it's encourage to collect all in the series to have a full understanding on how this artist draws with all lines. NOTICE: This book is not a "how-to book" but rather as one review noted, "An Art Exhibit And Fan Book".
