Regresja
W ciągu dwóch tysięcy lat ludzie osiągnęli harmonię ze sobą, z technologią i naturą, żyją długo i szczęśliwie, w oparciu o dwie główne zasady: wolność i postęp. Do tego czasu nastąpił skok inteligencji: mózgi są inaczej okablowane, w taki sposób, że ludzie kontrolują swoje instynkty i są bardziej spostrzegawczy. Jednak niektórzy rodzą się ze stanem zwanym regresją, co oznacza, że ich mózgi są okablowane w taki sam sposób, jak nasze obecnie. Takie osoby są bardziej romantyczne, chaotyczne i mniej świadome siebie. Aby pomóc nam zrozumieć naszą rolę w naturze i życiu, narrator opowiada historię związku regresyjnego mężczyzny ze zwykłą kobietą.

!No Grites! Salva tu vida

release date: Jul 06, 2022
!No Grites! Salva tu vida
Despues de nadar por muchos anos, un dia me di cuenta de que lo que lo que nos hace flotar y nadar son nuestros pulmones al usarlos como flotadores; lo hacemos por instinto. Tambien me di cuenta de que sabiendo trabajar nuestros pulmones, tenemos mas oportunidad de supervivencia al quedar atrapados en alguna corriente. Por esa razon me di a la tarea de explicar mis experiencias porque muchas personas mueren ahogadas cada ano en diferentes rios y lagos, incluyendo personas que saben nadar; no seas una estadistica mas. En este libro, "!No grites! Salva tu vida", entenderas el porque. Ademas, contiene una historia de amor y aventuras, y recuerda: !No grites! Salva tu vida After swimming for many years, I realized that what makes us float are our lungs when we use them as floats; we do it instinctively. I also realized that knowing how to work our lungs, we have a better chance of survival if we ever get trapped in a strong current. For that reason, I began to explain my experiences because many people drown each year in different rivers and lakes, including those who know how to swim; don''t be just another statistic. In this book, "Don''t scream! Instead, Save Your Life", you will understand why. In addition, it contains a story of love and adventures, and remember: Don''t Scream! Instead, Save Your Life

Essential Flamenco Guitar: Volume 2

release date: Sep 16, 2020
Essential Flamenco Guitar: Volume 2
The acclaimed first volume of this exciting series gave extensive insights into basic techniques of flamenco guitar playing and the two important rhythmic forms (palos) of Solea and Alegrias. This second volume continues on with an exploration of further essential rhythmic palos. The first of these is the Bulerias. Juan Martin brings his many years of experience as an internationally renowned flamenco soloist and accompanist for singers and dancers to unravelling its mysteries, explaining and demonstrating very clearly the different elements of its rhythmic structure and the various ways it may be accented and counted. He uses traditional and more modern examples of the different kinds of rhythm and melodic passages (falsetas) to provide an invaluable understanding of this wonderful palo. The second rhythmic form is devoted to the popular flamenco Rumba, then Tangos, Tientos and that most profound of all the palos, the deeply moving Seguiriyas. Juan''s solo playing is complemented by demonstrations of the guitar''s role in accompanying the flamenco dance (baile) and song (cante) with the help of outstanding dancers Raquel de Luna and Miguel Infante and singers Amparo Heredia (La Repompilla) and Carlos Brias. The music for solo guitar is transcribed in standard notation and tablature (cifra) and the online video contain nearly three hours of explanation and demonstrations. The series is complemented by two other best-selling Juan Martin volumes published by Mel Bay. These provide progressively graded solo material to extend the repertoire, from beginner to concert level. Includes access to online video.

Camino Quick Guide. Walking the Way of Saint James: Services & Accommodations for Pilgrims to Santiago, a Book to Plan the Stages.
If you are an urbanite who has spent his life locked in four walls, it is logical that now you want to go out into the country. If you work all your life sitting, it is very logical that you want to walk. If you stay in insane and sad offices, you want to breathe clean air. If your days are filled meeting with colleagues and clients, now you want to enjoy solitude. If you must achieve absurd objectives, you want to do something where the end is not a goal. Now you can say goodbye to all that, and alone or accompanied, go to the Camino de Santiago. Buen Camino ! Index 1.

For readers who are considering it, this book will be a help to make an informed decision and then plan it well. To do the Camino is to walk, nothing more. Walking is not running or climbing, but neither is it strolling at the mall. This guide is based on my experience of having completed the Camino from Roncesvalles to Santiago de Compostela walking about 500 miles in 35 days, and having finished better than I was at the beginning. Buen Camino ! About the author Juan Martín-García is Spanish, 60 years old, author a recognized book over the History of Spain. He has done the Camino only once, he is not a walking expert, nor an athlete. His motivation for doing the Camino was to understand why hundreds of thousands of people not only start, but complete every year a 500-mile journey. An essential book for pilgrims

From Prison Towers to Ivory Towers
Of the 2.3 million individuals housed in prison in the United States, it is estimated that 80% of those incarcerated have no high school diploma. Of those, many were pushed out of schools and into the prison industrial complex. Inside prison, many received an informal education from cellblock intellectuals that transformed their lives. This research explores the lives of nine formerly incarcerated individuals and their life before prison, their time inside prison, and their experience with education after prison. All contributors participated in the Transitions program, which provides a cohort model of education at the community college level. This research looks at the role education plays in empowering students to stay free from prison, thereby significantly reducing recidivism rates.

O meu irmão Che

O meu irmão Che
«Ernesto era um homem. É preciso tirá-lo do seu pedestal e devolver a vida a essa estátua de bronze, para perpetuar a sua mensagem. Che teria detestado o estatuto de ídolo.» Quando a família soube da morte de Che Guevara pela imprensa, resolveu guardar silêncio. Cinquenta anos depois, o seu irmão mais novo, Juan Martín, decidiu partilhar as suas recordações e revelar quem era Che na intimidade. Fala-nos de Ernesto, aquele irmão mais velho e protector, cúmplice nos segredos e nas aventuras infantis; das suas viagens, dos estudos, dos primeiros amores... do aventureiro idealista, do intelectual comprometido e do guerrilheiro em que se transformou; dos meses extraordinários que passou com ele em Havana, em 1959, retratando aqueles primeiros momentos da revolução cubana. Através de recordações,episódios caricatos e reflexões sobre a sua vida e a sua forma de pensar, Juan Martín Guevara resgata Che do mundo do mito, devolvendo-lhe o rosto humano de irmão, filho e pai. Numa biografia, que é também uma autobiografia, em que se cruzam as histórias de uma família com a História dos acontecimentos de que Che Guevara foi protagonista, até à sua morte, a 9 de Outubro de 1967, em La Quebrada del Yuro, Bolívia. O objectivo de Juan Martín Guevara é que os valores e ideais do seu irmão continuem a ser fonte de inspiração para as novas e futuras gerações.

Il Che, mio fratello
A cinquant''anni dalla morte del "Che", Juan Martín Guevara ha trovato il coraggio di togliere dal piedistallo il fratello maggiore per restituirci il volto umano del mito dilagato nel mondo dopo il suo tragico assassinio in Bolivia il 9 ottobre 1967. Per riconciliarsi con un fratello adorato ma ingombrante, Juan Martín riannoda il filo dei ricordi e ci presenta il "Che" più intimo, assolutamente inedito, colui che Ernesto Guevara de la Serna è stato prima di diventare una leggenda: il bambino-adolescente che divora libri e gioca a rugby, il ragazzo tenero e cocciuto, lo studente di medicina che si laurea a tempo di record, il giovane timido e audace con la vocazione al comando, il viaggiatore curioso e instancabile ma sofferente d''asma, il figlio prediletto che scrive malinconiche lettere a casa mentre scopre povertà e ingiustizie dell''America latina. Tra divertenti aneddoti di vita quotidiana e inediti scorci di un ambiente familiare colto e anticonvenzionale nell''Argentina tra gli anni Trenta e Sessanta, Juan Martín Guevara compie un''intensa, e a tratti dolorosa, incursione nella propria storia privata, lontana e recente. Dove eccentrici personaggi si mescolano con gli eventi del Novecento e l''assenza del fratello maggiore si riverbera sui precari equilibri di una famiglia che potrà finalmente riabbracciare il combattente sulla sierra di Cuba all''indomani della vittoria della rivoluzione cubana. Un libro sulla forza irresistibile della nostalgia e sui valori umani, prima ancora che politici, del "Che".

Che, My Brother
On 9 October 1967, Ernesto Che Guevara, Marxist guerrilla leader and hero of the Cuban Revolution, was captured and executed by Bolivian forces. When the Guevara family learned from the front pages that Che was dead, they decided to say nothing. Fifty years on, his younger brother, Juan Martin, breaks the silence to narrate his intimate memories and share with us his views of the character behind one of history''s most iconic figures. Juan Martin brings Che back to life, as a caring and protective older brother. Alongside the many practical jokes and escapades they undertook together, Juan Martin also relates the two extraordinary months he spent with the Comandante in 1959, in Havana, at the epicentre of the Cuban Revolution. He remembers Che as an idealist and adventurer and also as a committed intellectual. And he tells us of their parents - eccentric, cultivated, bohemian - and of their brothers and sisters, all of whom played a part in his political awakening. This unique autobiographical account sheds new light on a figure who continues to be revered as a symbol of revolutionary action and who remains a source of inspiration for many who believe that the struggle for a better world is not in vain.

Můj bratr Che
Dne 9. října 1967 byl ve vesničce La Higuera bolivijskými jednotkami zavražděn marxistický partyzánský vůdce a hrdina kubánské revoluce Ernesto "Che" Guevara. Když se z novinových stránek jeho rodina dozvěděla o jeho smrti, rozhodla se, že už o něm nikdy veřejně nepromluví. Půl století poté ale jeho nejmladší bratr, Juan Martin, mlčení prolomil. Tato unikátní autobiografie, již uvazuje předmluva profesora Josefa Opatrného, přináší čtenářům vůbec poprvé důvěrný pohled na asi největší ikonu světového revolučního hnutí.Autor vedle vzpomínek na staršího bratra, rodinné zázemí Guevarů a příhody, jež spolu zažili, přibližuje rovněž elektrizující atmosféru revoluční Kuby v době kubánské revoluce, kdy bezprostředně po vítězství Castrových barbudos v roce 1959 celá rodina strávila několik měsíců na ostrově po boku již legendárního El Che.

Customs Valuation and Transfer Pricing

release date: Apr 24, 2016
Customs Valuation and Transfer Pricing
Issues of transfer pricing have come to the fore in both international tax and customs regimes. In particular, the problem of how to apply the two systems of valuation to the same transaction is of widespread concern. This well-known book, now in a fully updated second edition, is a problem-solving guide for professionals charged with valuating transactions in their client’s or company’s best interests. Through detailed examination of relevant guidelines, transfer pricing methodologies, and business realities prevailing among multinational enterprises, it offers a cogent and convincing account of how tax and customs transfer pricing regimes may be harmonized. Among other essential elements, the author discusses the following in depth: – the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines; – the GATT/WTO Customs Valuation Code (GVC) and other valuation rules in key jurisdictions and regional agreements; – the OECD and UN model tax conventions; – the arm’s length principle; – methods, both traditional and new, of determining whether the parties’ relationship in uenced the price; and – additions to and deductions from the customs value. This second edition discusses new developments in the eld, including a chapter on Commentary 23.1 and Case Study 14.1 of the Technical Committee on Customs Valuation of the World Customs Organization (WCO) – the rst international instruments linking transfer pricing and customs valuation. The book concludes with an analysis of the circumstances and conditions under which the introduction of transfer pricing year-end adjustments to transaction value would be consistent with Article 1 of the GVC. The book will continue to provide practitioners, customs administrations, and academics with a highly practical analysis of the intersection of transfer pricing and customs valuation. It will be welcomed by customs administrations charged with examining the acceptability of a transaction value xed between related parties and by multinational companies as a truly actionable tool they can use to optimize decision-making as it relates to transfer pricing and customs valuation in a “real world” setting.

« Être le frère du Che ne peut pas être anodin.Mais il fallait bien qu’il soit le frère de quelqu’un.Il se trouve que c’est tombé sur moi.Pendant longtemps, je n’ai été que Juan Martin Guevara,puis je suis devenu le frère d’Ernesto Guevara.Et ensuite, celui d’une légende, le Che. » Quand les Guevara apprirent la mort du Che, à la une des journaux, ils décidèrent de garder le silence. Cinquante ans plus tard, il est temps pour son frère cadet, Juan Martin, de partager ses souvenirs, de dévoiler qui était le Che dans l’intimité. Juan Martin fait revivre ainsi ce frère aîné attentif et protecteur, complice des canulars et des escapades. Il raconte les deux mois extraordinaires qu’il a passés à La Havane aux côtés du Comandante, en 1959, au coeur de la révolution cubaine. Il se souvient de l’aventurier idéaliste qu’il a adulé, de l’intellectuel engagé dont les parents, excentriques, cultivés et bohèmes, mais aussi les frères et soeurs, ont participé à l’éveil politique. Dans ce récit autobiographique, Juan Martin Guevara oeuvre enfin pour que les valeurs du Che deviennent une source d’inspiration pour les plus jeunes.

Hamaika ipuin
Gerra zibil garaian kokatutako istorioekin hasi eta gaur egun arte, gure gizartearen argazki berezi bat egiten asmatu du Juan Martin Elexpuruk ipuin-bilduma honetan, askotan ezkutuan geratzen diren alderdiak agerian utziz eta ohikoak diren kontu batzuk hankaz gora irauliz, irakurleari irria eta ustekabea sortzeko beti. Erretratu soziologikotik harantzago, hala ere, literaturako lan bat da Elexpururena, nostalgiaren samurtasuna eta ironiaren gazia elkartzen dituena: ipuin bixi eta arinak, edozein kale bazterretan gerta litezkeenak eta kaleko hizkuntza naturalean idatziak. Gerrako pasadizoak eta haren ondorengoak, ezkontza-despedidetako pikardiak eta gorabeherak, senar dibortziatuaren neurasteniak eta enpresari modernoaren estresak...

These suites are transcribed into standard notation and flamenco tablature (cifra), with introductory playing notes by Juan Martin. The four solos on the audio recording are performed by Juan. The complementary and contrasting variety of styles and rhythms of the four solos provide a brilliant display of Juan''s artistry and the expressive capabilities of theflamenco guitar. Each solo is complete in itself. A powerfully evocative Zambra Mora is followed by the much-requested rumba ''La Feria'', then a gentlymelancholic Milonga and finally a thrilling Bulerias, which combines modernelements with pure gypsy falsetas from Moron del la Frontera. These solos provide an exceptional opportunity to learn and enjoy the music of a masterflamenco guitarist, whose two volumes of graded ''Solos Flamencos'' are already Mel Bay best-sellers.

Tribulations of People in the World

release date: Jun 13, 2014
Tribulations of People in the World
Tribulations of People in the World is a journey through the thoughts of Gabriel and Irena, the protagonist of a romantic entanglement. Their stories meet and their thoughts and feelings mingle. Their impressions and ideas are idiosyncratically different at first, but then the shades of their spirits blend until it is difficult to tell one from the other. There are interludes of poems between the two sides of the romantic story. It may be that Irena has her own entity or that she is just the product of Gabriels mind. This book is not the relation of a story but a creational act that is represented by Irena, Gabriel and their world.
