This research monograph answers the question how sustainability driven entrepreneurs (ecopreneurs) deliver their sustainability goals through their business practices. The research draws on data from 12 case studies set within the food industry. The analysis takes a firm level and a supply chain level perspective and provides insights to the interconnected nature of sustainability goals within and across firms. It provides theoretical propositions that show one approach of how to conduct business in a way that works for the planet and people in addition to shareholders. This presents an alternative understanding of organisational performance that builds the foundation for many avenues of future research into sustainable management. The research combines the remote areas of supply chain management and entrepreneurship at the intersection of sustainability. This novel approach and the insights from the business practice exploration, offer many avenues for further research beyond entrepreneurship and supply chain management. This book will be of interest to academics in management research and also to people with an academic background that work together with sustainability driven and/ or social entrepreneurs, who could benefit from the insights into how sustainability goals are delivered through business practices and the relevant trade-offs faced by ecopreneurs.

The curated selection shares a focus on modern contemporary designs, showcasing independent, local coffee hubs that sit at the heart of communities and are designed to foster a fantastic coffee experience. Insightful commentary by the owners and designers capture the feel and personality of each project. Schneider has once again served up an engaging and inspiring collection of modern cafés and coffee shops for lovers of coffee and good design. This book is a homage to his belief that, particularly given the recent global pandemic, it is vital that we continue to support and appreciate quality coffee in cafes and coffee shops that exhibit great feel-good inspiring designs.

Brought to the West in 1985, Maharishi Vedic medicine is based on the guiding principle of India's ancient Vedic tradition, a 5,000 year old system of mind-body medicine that maintains the human body is connected to a "network of intelligence" that governs the whole cosmos. When any part of the body gets disconnected from this intelligence, which can happen as a result of aging improper diet, and negative emotions and thoughts, then disorder and disease begin. Maharishi Vedic medicine treats the cause of disease by reestablishing these channels of communication, thereby enlivening the body's innate knowledge of how to function properly.

The first part of this manual deals with the experimental and scientific basis and the principles of the AOjASIF method of stable internal fixation. It deals with the function and main use of the different AO implants, the use of the different AO instruments, and with the essentials of the operative technique and of postoperative care. It also discusses the handling of the most important postoperative complications. The second part deals at length with the AO recommendations for the operative treatment of the most common closed fractures in the adult. This has been organized in anatomical sequence. The discussion of the closed fractures is followed by a discus sion of open fractures in the adult, then by fractures in children and finally by pathological fractures. The third part presents, in a condensed fashion, the application of stable internal fixation to reconstructive bone surgery. 1 GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS 1 Aims and Fundamental Principles of the AO Method The Chief Aim of Fracture Treatment is the Full Recovery of the Injured Limb In every fracture there is a combination of damage to both the soft tissues and to bone. Immediately after the fracture and during the phase of repair, we see certain local circulatory disturbances, certain manifestations of local inflammation, as well as pain and reflex splinting. These three factors, that is, circulatory disturbances, inflammation and pain, when combined with the defunctioning of bone, joints and muscle, result in the so-called jl'acture disease.

Schneider's play about prejudice and anti-foreign sentiment has become one of the most frequently performed works on the contemporary German stage.

A man walks onto the stage with a bouquet of roses in his hand. He begins to speak. The man's name is Sad -- he is an Arab. In the evening he sells roses to finance his studies. The hatred of the population towards him is so intense that he begins to turn on himself. "That's correct", he says, "I am dirty". The intensity of the monologue increases; it becomes passionate, desperate. He continues to speak. He screams. Screams for his life.

Die Autoren geben konkrete, empirisch fundierte Gestaltungshinweise fur eine effiziente und humane Produktion, die sich sowohl auf qualifizierte Arbeit als auch auf den Einsatz moderner Technologien stutzt.

Das Buch stellt eine in der Praxis erprobte Methodik zur Planung von CIM-Projekten vor, die sich vor allem fur mittelstandische Unternehmen eignet. Sie ist modular aufgebaut und reicht von der Ermittlung sowohl technischer als auch organisatorischer CIM-Potentiale bis hin zur Wirtschaftlichkeitsbewertung des Planungsergebnisses.

Dank verbessertem Instrumentarium und besserem Verstandnis fur die Prinzipien (Behrens und Searls 1986) zum sicheren und wirkungsvollen Gebrauch, wurde der Fixateur externe zu einem unersetzbaren Werkzeug eines jeden erfahrenen Traumatologen. Als wichtigste Indikationen fur den Fixateur externe gelten die 2 Degrees und 3 Degrees offenen Frakturen, infizierte Pseudarthrosen sowie Korrektureingriffe bei Achsenabweichungen und Langendifferenz. Der Fixateur externe wird weiter eingesetzt zur raschen, initialenRuhigstellungvon Weich- teilverletzungen und Frakturen bei Schwerstverletzten, zur Ruhigstellung geschlossener Frakturen mit schwerem Weichteiltrauma (Quetschung des Weichteilmantels, Verbrennun- gen, dermatologische Erkrankungen), bei ausgedehnten Schaft-und periartikularen Bru- chen, zur vorubergehenden gelenkuberbruckenden Ruhigstellung schwerer Weichteil-und Bandverletzungen, bei bestimmten Beckenringverletzungen und ausgewahlten Kinderfrak- turen sowie fur Arthrodesen und Osteotomien. Der Fixateur externe besitzt die einzigartige Moeglichkeit, Knochen-und Weichteile weit ausserhalb der Operations-oder Verletzungszone zu stabilisieren. Falls korrekt angewendet, gewahrt er ungehinderten Zugang zu den entscheidenden Skelett-und Weichteilstrukturen, so dass sowohl Initialversorgung als auch sekundare Wiederherstellung des Knochens und Weichteilmantels ermoeglicht wird. Durch die Verwendung des Fixateur externe bleibt das zusatzliche Gewebetrauma zur primaren Skelett- und Weichteilverletzung sehr gering. Auch das Infektrisiko ist geringer als das bei einer "inneren" Osteosynthese.

The authors, a Cook and a Cardiologist, have discovered a breakthrough new way to cut carbs, control diabetes, and to lose weight easily. For hours-longer sugar control, they have figured out how to substitute protein powder for flour, the main source of carbs in food. They've also figured out how to substitute milled flaxseed, which has no absorbable carbs and is vastly healthier than whole grains, for butter and margarine in baking snacks and goodies. Recipes made in this exciting new way -- all luscious, very low carb with no saturated or trans fat -- all contain such high amounts of protein, fiber, vitamins, calcium, and antioxidants that they can be portable meal replacements. If you have diabetes or are just trying to lose weight, you can now enjoy brownies, muffins, blondies, pancakes, cookies, pies, cakes, tortillas, snack bars, bread, sandwich rolls, pizza, and more. Carbs, even "good" carbs, just make you hungry again. Protein's slo-mo energy release keeps you feeling full, stabilized, and in control for hours. Here are some sample recipes of these nutrient-crammed yummies: Pancakes: each 98 calories, 15 g protein, 3 g carbs and 2 g monounsaturated fat Brownies: each 74 calories, 12 g protein, less than 1 g carb, 2 g fiber, 1.5 g monounsaturated fat and 4,666 antioxidants Blondies: each 122 calories, 16 g protein, 2 g carbs, 2 g fiber, and 2,674 antioxidants Tortillas, each 61 calories, 11 g protein, 0 g carbs, 3 g monounsaturated fat, and 36,000 antioxidants Quesadillas, each 59 calories, 10 g protein, 2 g carbs, 1 g monounsaturated fat and 12,000 antioxidants Banana nut bread, each slice 110 calories, 11 g protein, 7 g carbs, 2 g fiber, 2 g monounsaturated fat and 2,250 antioxidants Pizza, each slice (1/6th of a pizza) 161 calories, 23 g protein, 3 g carbs, 2 g fiber, 2 g monounsaturated fat and 1,000 antioxidants, Homemade Protein Bread: Each slice 92 calories, 19 g protein, 0 g carbs, 2 g fiber and 1,500 antioxidants Burger rolls, each 177 calories, 36 g protein, 0 g carbs, 2 g fiber, and 11,502 antioxidants These are examples, not of this eating plan's chicken, fish, fruit or vegetable recipes, but of the formerly most craved but carby treats which you can now have - as much as you like - with no worry over breaking your diet or blood sugar spikes.

About a billion people around the world suffer from extreme poverty, scraping by on a dollar or two a day. They go to bed hungry, catch diseases that are easily eradicable, and don't have a school where they can learn to read. Millions of Americans care about global poverty, but not enough of us. Our problem is that we are too ignorant about the wider world. Most of us can't find Bangla Desh or Mali on the map. We can't identify countries by religion, language, or population size. Too many politicians share the ignorance of the public. Some of them encourage it. That's how we blundered into Iraq and abandoned Africa to malaria and warlords. Disconnect argues that we can learn about the world by actively addressing global problems through our own communities. For example, Chicago links one school with students in Morocco, and Fargo, North Dakota has a "sister" in China. San Diego volunteers have a sister cities program in Afghanistan, and tiny Amesbury, Ma. built a school library in Esabulu, Kenya. Women's groups are working in Sudan and Rwanda. Many Americans are using their passion for sport, justice, or health care to partner with people in Pakistan, Guatemala and Haiti who have something to teach us all about courage and wisdom. This book tells the stories of Americans who are blazing the way, pioneers of the new century.

It's also the most controversial attempt ever made to resolve one of the most emotionally-charged issues in Shakespeare criticism: the question of anti-Semitism in the characterization of Shylock, the Jewish money lender.

This short book on The Merchant of Venice is a literary experiment, an exploration of an untested idea. It begins with a radically counter-intuitive approach: seeing Shylock -- the classic anti-Jewish stereotype -- in terms of ancient Roman honor and ancient Roman comedy instead of the customary Christian/Jewish moral issues.

Beginning with a narrow focus on a single literary document that is one of our culture's seminal influences, Shylock, the Roman methodically drills deeply into several of Shakespeare's plays, ultimately achieving a breadth of vision that explains in short order a great deal about the logic of Shakespeare's artistry and the point of view of Shakespeare as a dramatist.

This book will stimulate furious debate among scholars and critics. More importantly, new productions of The Merchant of Venice will have to cast movie action heroes in the leading role of Shylock, the Roman.

1m allgemeinen Teil dieses Manuals sollen experimentelle und wissenschaftliche Grund lagen und Prinzipien der stabilen Osteosynthese nach der AO-Methode, Funktion und Hauptindikation der verschiedenen AO-Implantate, Handhabung des Standardin strumentariums der AO sowie einige wesentliche Gesichtspunkte der Operationstechnik und der Nachbehandlung dargestellt werden. Auch die Behandlung der wichtigsten postoperativen Komplikationen wird besprochen. 1m spe:: iellen Teil werden die von der AO befolgten Richtlinien fur die operative Behandlung der haufigsten geschlossenen Frakturen beim Erwachsenen nach anatomi schen Regionen eingehend erortert. Es folgen dann die Behandlung der offenen Fraktu ren beim Erwachsenen, der Frakturen bei Kindern und beim alten Menschen sowie der pathologischen Frakturen. In einem drittel1 Teil wird die Anwendung der stabilen Osteosynthese bei Wiederher stellungseingriffen am Knochen zusammenfassend dargestellt. R T IL LL MI 1 Ziele, Grundlagen und Prinzipien der AO-Technik Hauptziel jeglicher Knochenbruchbehandlung ist die Wiederherstellung der vol/en Funk tion der verletzten Extremitat. Jede Fraktur stellt eine Kombination von Weichteil-und Knochenschaden dar. Sofort nach der Fraktur und im Laufe der Reparationsvorgange treten lokale Zirkulationssto rungen, entziindliche Erscheinungen und Schmerz mit reflektorischer Immobilisierung auf. Diese drei Faktoren fiihren in Verbindung mit dem Ausfall funktioneller Beanspru chung von Knochen, Gelenken und Muskeln zur sog. Frakturkrankheit, d.h. chroni scher Odembildung, Atrophie der Weichteile, Knochenabbau (Osteoporose) und Ge lenksteifen. Jede Behandlung einer Fraktur muS deshalb sowohl den Bruch an sich als auch die damit in Verbindung stehenden lokalen Reaktionen des Organismus beriicksichtigen."

Ein Leben im Rollstuhl bringt zwangslaufig eine andere Sicht der Dinge. Mit ca. 1,20 m Scheitelhohe hat man einfach eine andere Perspektive, schon aus rein optischen Grunden. Welches literarische Potenzial beispielsweise in dem schlichten Besuch eines Eiscafes stecken kann, das hat er schon in seinem ersten Buch, "Wie ich das Laufen verlernte," gezeigt. Wer aber glaubt, damit ist alles gut, der kennt Rolling Robo nicht. Die Reha ist abgeschlossen, jetzt geht das gar nicht so normale Leben wieder los. Ob es ein Besuch beim Zahnarzt ist, oder Brotchen holen beim Backer - fur ihn gerat alles zum Abenteuer. Dazwischen macht er sich so seine Gedanken uber Falschparker, Besserwisser, Sex im Rollstuhl, Mobilitat, Sport, was nicht nur Rollstuhlfahrern eben taglich so zustosst.
