Since the late 1960s, Jane Fonda has identified as an activist first and an actor second, using her celebrity as a vehicle to convey her views and her advocacy. Few stars of her stature have been as simultaneously acclaimed and vilified as Fonda. Even as she won two Academy Awards and was a major box office draw of the 1970s and 1980s, she received reams of hate mail for her political activism and antiwar stances. This book explores Fonda's devotion to movement politics—sometimes at the expense of her career and her personal safety. Digging deep into rare material from cinema archives and Fonda's own personal papers, journalist Marilyn Greenwald tells the story of how Fonda came to view acting as a "side gig" that gives her a worldwide platform to convey her personal and political views. Charting the evolution of her activism and the merging of her acting and producing with her advocacy, Greenwald focuses on the years from 1968—when she was jarred out of complacency by the Vietnam War—to 1980, after the release of The China Syndrome and the advent of the Three Mile Island nuclear crisis, which brought to light the possible dangers of nuclear energy. Greenwald details how three of her films—Klute (1971), Coming Home (1978), and The China Syndrome (1979)—were designed to further her personal beliefs. She also considers how Fonda has weathered changes in the entertainment industry and public tastes to produce and star in decades' worth of socially conscious projects. Charting Fonda's personal and professional growth while offering a candid account of her struggles, this book shows how Fonda viewed movies as an influential storytelling tool that can influence public opinion, change minds, and trigger social change.

Travel Case MIDI-TRS Adapter MicroSD Card & USB Kabel schwarze Version mit invertierten Bedienelementen ONE MkII Black Edition - Struktur & Standards Der One MkII von Oxi Instruments ist ein performance-orientierter Multitrack Sequenzer für MIDI CV/Gate und die DAW. Die Struktur von One MkII ist so ausgelegt das acht voll konfigurierbare Sequenzer in einem Gerät zur Verfügung stehen. So ist es problemlos möglich Setups mit mindestens vier Geräten bzw. 64 Spuren zu sequenzieren entscheidend ist hierbei der gewählte Modus je Sequenzer. Man hat die Wahl aus sechs unterschiedlichen Modi: Multi (8 Spuren ideal z.B. für Drum Tracks) Chord (bis zu 8 Stimmen) Mono Polyphon (bis zu 7 Stimmen) Stochastic (zufallsgesteuert) und Metriceal (generative Improvisation). Jeder Sequenzer kann sein eigenes Timing Laufrichtung und Shuffle-Wert haben. Zudem gibt es je Sequenzer zwei LFOs einen Looper und einen Arpeggiator mit 15 Modi und weitreichenden Einstelloptionen. Auf der einen Seite hat man mächtige Live-Tools direkt zur Hand auf der anderen Seite kann man Modulation direkt ins Pattern einbauen. Mehr & Besser in Version 2 Oxi Instruments hat in der zweiten Generation des ONE Sequenzers viel Neues einfließen und vor allem diesen konsequent verbessert. Zunächst fällt auf die MkII ist etwas größer und schwerer als der Vorgänger. Das Display wurde vergrößert und es gibt mehr Taster die für einen verbesserten Workflow sorgen. Weitere Verbesserungen sind die doppelt so schnelle CPU der deutlich vergrößerte interne Speicher und der microSD Slot. Dadurch bietet der ONE MkII "unendlich" viel Platz zum Speichern von Projekten Grooves und Skalen. Die meisten werden sich über die Verdoppelung der Sequenzer von 4 auf 8 freuen wodurch nun bis zu 64 Spuren genutzt werden können. Die wichtigsten Neuerungen auf Software-Eben sind folgende: ein neuer Performance-Modus maximiert die Ausdruckskraft und Flexibilität bei Live-Performances und Kompositionssessions. Mit den einzigartigen Accumulator- und Repeat-Engines gibt der ONE MkII innovative Tools zum Erstellen von sich entwickelnden Patterns überlagerten Texturen und komplexen rhythmischen Variationen an die Hand. Die FLOW Performance Layer fügen der Musik dynamische Variationen und Echtzeit-Modulationen für den Live-Einsatz hinzu ohne die Sequenz nachhaltig zu verändern. Sequenzen Leben einhauchen An dieser Stelle kommt die erweiterte MIDI- und CV-Matrix ins Spiel die es ermöglicht LFOs Hüllkurven und auf dem Pad-Feld eingezeichnete Verläufe mit über 40 internen und externen Modulationen zu verknüpfen. Damit kann man z.B. MIDI-CCs in Bewegung versetzen die Oktaven des Arpeggiators durchschalten die Velocity von Drumspuren zyklisch ein- und ausblenden und das Beste überhaupt: diese Modulationen den CV/Gate Ausgä

With the first part of this study Ignaz Stegmiller provides an introduction to the problem of pre-investigations, the second part gives an overview of the OTP's structure. Part III addresses how the selection process is performed. In this part, the complexity of pre-investigations is revealed. The three trigger mechanisms - State referrals, SC referrals, and the proprio motu mechanism - are illustrated, Self-referrals are critically analyzed and the author argues that the Prosecutor should use his proprio motu power more frequently. Perceptions of OTP's lack of independence must be rebutted. The proprio motu tool could have a great share in that, while the self-referral practice is associated with nepotism. Part IV analyses the criteria used to select situations including Article 53. As regards admissibility, the two notions of complementarity and gravity can be distinguished. Bearing in mind the inactivity criterion, complementarity is basically analyzed in a threefold manner: (1) as a rule whereby situations and cases are admissible if the State remains inactive; (2) exceptions as found in articles 17 (1) (a)-(c), 20 (3), which can lead to inadmissibility; (3) in turn, article 17 (2), (3) provides "exceptions to the exceptions" if a State is unwilling or unable to genuinely carry out proceedings. Gravity is a very complex notion. The author differentiates two concepts: "legal" and "relative" gravity. Legal gravity must then be linked to article 53 (1) (b) and relative gravity is part of article 53 (1) (c)'s assessment of the "interest of justice." Only a broad application of the "interest of justice" gives the OTP the flexibility that it needs. Parts V and VI then summarize the most important results of this study.

Master's Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Banking, Stock Exchanges, Insurance, Accounting, grade: 1,00, Wiesbaden University of Applied Sciences, course: International Finance, 69 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Microfinance Institutions (MFI) have left the role of altruistic instruments for donor-assistance and turned into profitable financial institutions and interesting investment opportunities for international financial investors. However, well-intentioned investments can dramatically increase a MFIs risk exposure and institutions without proper risk management can easily be forced into closure in the aftermath of environmental or economical distress. Moreover MFIs operate predominant in developing countries counting for 94% of all natural disasters worldwide and the vulnerability of their clients is exorbitant high due to their establishment in simple accommodation facilities and the strong dependence on agricultural business. Foreign exchange and disaster risks are considered to be two of the most jeopardising threats for MFIs characterised by close interrelations and ignored by the majority of institutions, investors and credit users. This work compiles a holistic risk management approach starting with the sound assessment of foreign exchange and disaster risks with the aid of modern tools such as hazard modelling and the value-at-risk model. Based on the institutions particular risk-bearing capacity different strategies to minimise and transfer these risks have been evaluated. More than twenty methods from operational hedges to innovative instruments like indexed weather derivatives or currency and catastrophe swaps are investigated concerning their availability, applicability, effectiveness and efficiency in the microfinance context. Furthermore this work seeks to design the strategies in a way that overcomes particular obstacles like the Samaritans dilemma to create sustainable security along with rising self responsibility. Consequently the employed instruments have been modified regarding their trigger concepts and payment schemes. As the implementation of many useful tools would be hampered due to the MFIs size, pooling alternatives between MFIs have been analysed as well as cooperation models with international companies or public private partnerships. In interviews with global experts from MunichRe, SwissRe and FMO specific issues have been discussed and the feasibility of the strategies could be affirmed. This work can provide useful guidance for risk managers, investors, donors and all persons that are directly or indirectly responsible for the sustainable development of one or several microfinance institutions.

Master's Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Banking, Stock Exchanges, Insurance, Accounting, grade: 1,00, Wiesbaden University of Applied Sciences, course: International Finance, 69 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Microfinance Institutions (MFI) have left the role of altruistic instruments for donor-assistance and turned into profitable financial institutions and interesting investment opportunities for international financial investors. However, well-intentioned investments can dramatically increase a MFIs risk exposure and institutions without proper risk management can easily be forced into closure in the aftermath of environmental or economical distress. Moreover MFIs operate predominant in developing countries counting for 94% of all natural disasters worldwide and the vulnerability of their clients is exorbitant high due to their establishment in simple accommodation facilities and the strong dependence on agricultural business. Foreign exchange and disaster risks are considered to be two of the most jeopardising threats for MFIs characterised by close interrelations and ignored by the majority of institutions, investors and credit users. This work compiles a holistic risk management approach starting with the sound assessment of foreign exchange and disaster risks with the aid of modern tools such as hazard modelling and the value-at-risk model. Based on the institutions particular risk-bearing capacity different strategies to minimise and transfer these risks have been evaluated. More than twenty methods from operational hedges to innovative instruments like indexed weather derivatives or currency and catastrophe swaps are investigated concerning their availability, applicability, effectiveness and efficiency in the microfinance context. Furthermore this work seeks to design the strategies in a way that overcomes particular obstacles like the Samaritans dilemma to create sustainable security along with rising self responsibility. Consequently the employed instruments have been modified regarding their trigger concepts and payment schemes. As the implementation of many useful tools would be hampered due to the MFIs size, pooling alternatives between MFIs have been analysed as well as cooperation models with international companies or public private partnerships. In interviews with global experts from MunichRe, SwissRe and FMO specific issues have been discussed and the feasibility of the strategies could be affirmed. This work can provide useful guidance for risk managers, investors, donors and all persons that are directly or indirectly responsible for the sustainable development of one or several microfinance institutions.

A GROUNDBREAKING NEW WAY TO OVERCOME YOUR ANXIETY, FROM BESTSELLING AUTHOR OWEN O'KANE 'Owen's work around anxiety has been a huge help for me in my own life. I would highly recommend this book' Lewis Capaldi -- Feeling anxious is part of being human ; sometimes it can even be necessary or useful. But what about when anxiety takes over ? When you feel like it's too often dictating your life? Have you ever considered that you might be addicted to anxiety ? In this groundbreaking book, bestselling author and psychotherapist Owen O'Kane explores how we all unwittingly build habits around our anxiety. This, he argues, is how we become addicted - the behaviours and thought patterns that help us feel safe in the short term ultimately serve to perpetuate it. Put simply, we get hooked . The answer? Break the cycle . How? Recognize: You must understand your anxiety and identify your triggers before you can start to unpick it. Tackle : Discover vital techniques for breaking the underlying habits and patterns. Move forward : Learn strategies for navigating setbacks or relapses on the road ahead. Addicted to Anxiety will help you understand your anxiety from the perspective of addiction, identifying your triggers and learning how to break your habits so you can actively replace them with new, more productive behaviours for a calmer , happier life . -- MORE PRAISE FOR ADDICTED TO ANXIETY: ' I love Owen's work. He is a force for good' Davina McCall ' Owen helps us look at our lives and happiness in a clear and practical way' Fearne Cotton 'Addicted to Anxiety is a truly powerful and important book . Owen O'Kane's piercing clarity as a therapist and writer gifts anybody who has experienced anxiety the insight and tools to overcome it.' Rob Rinder 'Owen takes the tangled, overwhelming problem of anxiety and unravels it with clarity and compassion. His gift lies in turning the hard-to-understand into simple, actionable wisdom that anyone (me included) can implement to reclaim their peace and take control of their life.' Matt WIllis 'Owen's insight due to his experience and wisdom allows him to cut to the chase of why we get stuck in difficult emotions and more importantly he shows us how to navigate them and lead happier lives. A must read.' Will Young 'Owen has the rare gift of explaining complex emotions in a truly engaging and digestible way . His tips and strategies for managing those emotions are explained with care, compassion and humour. Highly recommended.' Susie Dent 'There's a reason Owen's work has put him at the very top of his profession and why his books continue to top the bestsellers chart - he's one of the very best in his field. His ability to distill sage advice, to navigate a world of word salad and jargon to bring therapeutic advice to people who might not otherwise be able to afford it or find it accessible is the reason he continues to lead where others follow.' Kate Thornton

Foreword by Jonathan Haidt, author of THE RIGHTEOUS MIND An invaluable guide to understanding the technology that captures our attention with anger. The original internet was not designed to make us upset, distracted, confused, and outraged. But something unexpected happened at the turn of the last decade, when a handful of small features were quietly launched at social media companies with little fanfare. Together, they triggered a cascading set of dramatic changes to how media, politics, and society itself operates-inadvertently creating an Outrage Machine we cannot ignore. Author, designer, and media researcher Tobias Rose-Stockwell shares the defining shifts caused by these technologies, and how they have ignited a society-wide crisis of trust. Drawing from cutting-edge research and vivid personal anecdotes, Rose-Stockwell illustrates how social media has bound us to an unprecedented system of public performance, training us to react rather than reflect, and attack rather than debate. OUTRAGE MACHINE reveals the triggers and tactics used to exploit our anger, unpacking how these tools hack our deep tribal instincts and psychological vulnerabilities, and how they have become opportunistic platforms for authoritarians and a threat to democratic norms everywhere. But this book is not just about the problem. In a story spanning continents and generations, Rose-Stockwell explores how every new media technology disrupts our ability to make sense of the world, from the printing press to the telegraph, from radio to television. OUTRAGE MACHINE situates social media within a historical cycle of confusion, violence, and emerging tolerance. Using clear language and powerful illustrations, this book reveals the magnitude of the challenges we face, while offering realistic solutions and a promising pathway out.

Ready to stop being at war with your own mind? Get the guidance you need to break free from stress and start thriving, from a spiritual thought leader who can help you see beyond the chaos. Anxiety has reached epidemic levels, yet most solutions barely scratch the surface. We’ve been told it’s a chemical imbalance, a disorder to be managed, or something to medicate away. But what if anxiety isn’t the enemy? What if it’s a messenger, one that, when understood, can be transformed into a powerful tool for clarity, resilience, and personal growth? In this paradigm-shifting guide, renowned intuitive, life coach, and truth seeker Elizabeth April dismantles outdated beliefs about anxiety and exposes its true root cause: an energetic imbalance signaling unresolved emotional and spiritual misalignment. Drawing from her personal journey with chronic anxiety, she delivers a bold new framework that empowers you to take control, without medication, years of therapy, or exhausting trial and error. Through her ReNU Method, a powerful three-part strategy for rewiring anxious responses, you’ll learn how to: Decode anxiety at its core , so you can stop fighting it and start using it to your advantage Recognize anxiety triggers before they escalate and neutralize them in real time Break free from the looping cycle of fear, stress, and overthinking Develop a resilient nervous system that isn’t hijacked by negativity or external chaos Reclaim your power and transform anxiety into an ally for intuitive guidance and self-mastery No more guesswork. No more fear. Your Anxiety Is Giving Me Anxiety offers a clear, practical path to lasting peace, self-trust, and unshakable calm, regardless of what’s happening in the world around you.

Since the late 1960s, Jane Fonda has identified as an activist first and an actor second, using her celebrity as a vehicle to convey her views and her advocacy. Few stars of her stature have been as simultaneously acclaimed and vilified as Fonda. Even as she won two Academy Awards and was a major box office draw of the 1970s and 1980s, she received reams of hate mail for her political activism and antiwar stances. This book explores Fonda's devotion to movement politics—sometimes at the expense of her career and her personal safety. Digging deep into rare material from cinema archives and Fonda's own personal papers, journalist Marilyn Greenwald tells the story of how Fonda came to view acting as a "side gig" that gives her a worldwide platform to convey her personal and political views. Charting the evolution of her activism and the merging of her acting and producing with her advocacy, Greenwald focuses on the years from 1968—when she was jarred out of complacency by the Vietnam War—to 1980, after the release of The China Syndrome and the advent of the Three Mile Island nuclear crisis, which brought to light the possible dangers of nuclear energy. Greenwald details how three of her films—Klute (1971), Coming Home (1978), and The China Syndrome (1979)—were designed to further her personal beliefs. She also considers how Fonda has weathered changes in the entertainment industry and public tastes to produce and star in decades' worth of socially conscious projects. Charting Fonda's personal and professional growth while offering a candid account of her struggles, this book shows how Fonda viewed movies as an influential storytelling tool that can influence public opinion, change minds, and trigger social change.
