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:

Governing Security investigates the surprising history of two major federal agencies that touch the lives of Americans every day: the Roosevelt-era Federal Security Agency––which eventually became today's Department of Health and Human Services––and the more recently created Department of Homeland Security. By describing the legal, political, and institutional history of both organizations, Mariano-Florentino Cu?llar offers a compelling account of crucial developments affecting the basic architecture of our nation. He shows how Americans end up choosing security goals not through an elaborate technical process, but in lively and overlapping settings involving conflict over statutory programs, agency autonomy, presidential power, and priorities for domestic and international risk regulation. Ultimately, as Cu?llar shows, ongoing fights about the scope of national security reshape the very structure of government and the intricate process through which statutes and regulations are implemented, particularly during––or in anticipation of––a national crisis.

Описание:

The poems explore the author's boyhood in a Spanish village, his coming of age, and his arrival to California in his 20's. A series of characters marginalized by society interact with the speaker and help him understand his uniqueness and difference. Intimacy, sexuality, and desire are expressed in spare, narrative language.

Praise for Decoding Sparrows...

Pick up this book and inhabit Mariano Zaro's world: his boyhood in a Spanish village, hanging plums in strings from the ceiling with his father, the farmer, the inverted heart shape of a hole in a woman's face, the way the boy needed and was given permission to look, and brought to bear that same humane and unsparing gaze on himself and his own desires, on intimacy and estrangement, on Spain and California. In Decoding Sparrows, Mariano Zaro renders coming of age and hunger in spare and luminous language, an almost crystalline austerity-- each word resonant, each word steadfast. Zaro illuminates, he limns his poems in longing.--Marsha de la O, author of Every Ravening Thing

Описание: From today’s vantage point it can be denied that the confidence in the abilities of globalism, mobility, and cosmopolitanism to illuminate cultural signification processes of our time has been severely shaken. In the face of this crisis, a key concept of this globalizing optimism as World Literature has been for the past twenty years necessarily is in the need of a comprehensive revision. World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality: Beyond, Against, Post, Otherwise offers a wide range of contributions approaching the blind spots of the globally oriented Humanities for phenomena that in one way or another have gone beyond the discourses, aesthetics, and political positions of liberal cosmopolitanism and neoliberal globalization. Departing basically (but not exclusively) from different examples of Latin American literatures and cultures in globalized contexts, this volume provides innovative insights into critical readings of World Literature and its related conceptualizations. A timely book that embraces highly innovative perspectives, it will be a mustread for all scholars involved in the field of the global dimensions of literature.

Описание:

Many Filipino Americans feel obligated to give charitably to their families, their communities, or social development projects and organizations back home. Their contributions provide relief to poor or vulnerable Filipinos, and address the forces that maintain poverty, vulnerability, and exploitative relationships in the Philippines. This philanthropy is a result of both economic globalization and the migration of Filipino professionals to the United States. But it is also central to the moral economies of Filipino migration, immigration, and diasporic return. Giving-related practices and concerns—and the bonds maintained through giving—infuse what it means to be Filipino in America.

Giving Back shows how integral this system is for understanding Filipino diaspora formation. Joyce Mariano “follows the money” to investigate the cultural, social, economic, and political conditions of diaspora giving. She takes an interdisciplinary approach to reveal how power operates through this charity and the ways the global economic and cultural dimensions of this practice reinforce racial subordination and neocolonialism. Giving Back explores how this charity can stabilize overlapping systems of inequality as well as the contradictions of corporate social responsibility programs in diaspora.
