When you're ready to take the next step in your life, whether that means starting a new business or applying for college, one force will block your path like a brick wall: fear. It becomes nearly impossible to take a risk when the negative consequences of that choice swirl in your head: financial ruin, humiliation, or the sting of failure.
What fear keeps you from seeing is that failure is the first step toward achievement.
In Embracing Failure, Mat Pelletier shows you how to shake off the paralyzing effects of fear and move toward what you want most. He'll equip you with the tools needed to dig up seeds of doubt and plant seeds of confidence, plus a framework to set attainable goals and track your progress. Your road to success will come with obstacles, but if you learn to push past them, you'll find the best things in life waiting on the other side. This is a story of inspiration, motivation, and ultimate success.

The principles so dear to us as citizens of a democratic society are often severely tested.
In time of crisis, civil liberties can be fragile. Their complex relationship with national security can be affected by legitimate and unfounded fears alike, as well as by prejudice, incomplete information and the impact of specific events.
This souvenir catalogue examines civil liberties in Canada during the First and Second World Wars, as well as during the October Crisis. It provides the context and consequences of repressive legislative measures, along with information on key subjects, personalities, and debates. When appropriate, it also makes connections between historical events and related issues of the day.

Описание: Future Harvests explores a very hot topic: Will we be able to feed nine billion people by 2050?The world population is growing fast. From six billion people in 2000, it is expected to pass nine billion by 2050. The urban population will double. Water shortages, climate change and soil degradation present a serious threat to the ability of farmers to produce the quantity of food required to meet future demand. In his new book, Future Harvests, Christophe Pelletier presents an objective and comprehensive overview of both the challenges and the potential solutions to produce more food. Using examples from around the world, the author illustrates the amazing potential for growing more food on the land, in the oceans, in the cities and even in the desert. The book covers a broad range of topics in simple, clear language, appealing to both industry specialists and readers with little knowledge of food production. Since its publication, several events mentioned in the book have started to become reality such as the erosion of the US dollar, food inflation, unrest in Arab countries, and the progressive implementation of new measures to control the markets of financial derivatives, in particular in European countries. This demonstrates the author's foresight and thorough understanding of the factors that influence the functioning of food markets. Future Harvests contains many more predictions about things to come in the world of food production and food security for the coming decades. The readers of this book will know what to expect and how to adapt to an ever-changing food supply environment. Future Harvests is a must read for everyone who wants to understand the future of food and farming!Author Christophe Pelletier introduces the SIMPLE principles required to increase food production: Sustainability, Innovation, Market orientation, Pragmatism, Leadership, and Efficiency.Future Harvests reviews future farming strategies. The book discusses the pros and cons of large-scale vs. small-scale, industrial vs. organic, and local vs. global farming. It shows that, instead of choosing one system versus another, maximum progress will be achieved by taking the best of both worlds. Future Harvests addresses controversial topics such as genetic engineering, nanotechnologies, the so-called "land grabs", the development of biofuels, as well as investments and speculation by financial institutions.The next agricultural revolution will be about the way we think!Once you have read Future Harvests, you will want to read the sequel: We Will Reap What We Sow.

Описание: Density Functional Theory (DFT) is a quantum mechanical modelling method, used in physics and chemistry to investigate the electronic structure (principally the ground state) of many-body systems, in particular atoms, molecules, and the condensed phases. This book provides current research in the study of the principles, applications and analysis of Density Functional Theory (DFT). Topics discussed include density functional treatment of interactions and chemical reactions at interfaces; applications of DFT calculations to lithium carbenoids and magnesium carbenoids; thermoelectric properties of low-dimensional materials by DFT; using DFT computations on the radical scavenging activity studies of natural phenolic compounds; polarisability of C60/C70 fullerene [2+1]- and [1+1]-adducts; DFT application to the calculation of properties of di- and trimethylnaphthalenes; transport calculations of organic materials; the evolution of DFT; the capabilities of DFT for materials design of alloys; and the fundamentals of energy density functionality in nuclear physics.
