Enter a world of magic and enchantment with Alexandre Dumas's timeless adaptation of the Nutcracker story, The Tale of the Nutcracker. When little Marie receives a rather ugly doll for Christmas, she isn't sure what to make of him. His head is far too large, his legs far too small; but he's certainly excellently dressed! Things take a strange turn on Christmas Eve when, as the clocks strike midnight, the odd little Nutcracker comes to life to do fierce battle against the malevolent Mouse King and his armies. But that's just the beginning of the Nutcracker's strange and magical story. Full of magical wonder and surreal fantasy, this famous adaptation, which inspired Tchaikovsky's beloved ballet, is a celebration of childhood imagination, full of talking toys, candy kingdoms and dastardly mice.

"Encouraging…Uplifting...Meeting apparently insurmountable goals requires thinking big…this will inspire." —Publishers Weekly "Raj Shah has written a practical guide to making the world a better place. He knows what he's talking about, because he's done it himself. Anyone who wants to make a change in the world, or their own lives, will benefit from this book." —Bill Gates, Cochair, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Rajiv J. Shah, president of the Rockefeller Foundation and former administrator of President Barack Obama's United States Agency for International Development, shares a dynamic new model for creating large scale change, inspired by his own involvements with some of the largest humanitarian projects of our time.Rajiv J. Shah is no stranger to pulling off the impossible, from helping vaccinate 900 million children at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to a high-pressure race against the clock to stop the spread of Ebola. His secret? A big bets philosophy—the idea that seeking to solve problems rather than make incremental improvements can attract the unlikely partners with the power and know-how to achieve transformational change. Part career sweeping memoir, part inspirational playbook, Big Bets offers a master class in decision-making, leadership, and changing the world one bet at a time. Shah animates his strategic insights with vivid behind-the-scenes stories, memorable conversations with household names that helped shape his approach to creating change, and his own personal growth as an Indian-American from an immigrant family looking for a way to belong. He distills his battle-tested strategies for creating change, arguing that big bets have a surprising advantage over cautious ones: a bold vision can attract support, collaborations, and fresh ideas from key players who might otherwise be resistant. Throughout the book, Shah traces his unlikely path to the Rockefeller Foundation across a changing world and through some of the most ambitious,.

Inhaltlich unveränderte Neuauflage. Die vermehrte Bereitstellung multimedialer Inhalte im World Wide Web führt zu einem steigenden Bedarf an breitbandigen Netzwerkverbindungen. Die wichtigsten seriellen Übertragungsstandards (SONET, Ethernet, FibreChannel) verfügen über Varianten mit Datenraten von 10Gb/s, welche zunehmend Verbreitung finden. Takt- und Datenrückgewinnung (Clock Data Recovery, CDR) bei 10Gb/s stellt eine besondere Herausforderung dar, da herkömmliche CDR-Architekturen aufgrund des steigenden Einflusses parasitärer Effekte zu unbefriedigenden Ergebnissen führen. Bang-Bang CDRs zeigen sich robust gegenüber solchen Effekten und haben sich bei 10Gb/s-Systemen durch gesetzt. Der Autor Norman Dodel beschreibt sowohl die systemtheo retischen Grundlagen von Bang-Bang-CDRs als auch deren schaltungstechnische Um setzung anhand eines für den kommerziellen Einsatz bestimmten CDR-Pro to typen. Dazu werden die an die einzelnen Schaltungsblöcke bzw. integrierten Bauelemente gestellten Anforderungen getrennt behandelt. Einführend wird zusätzlich ein Einblick in die Grundbegriffe der seriellen Datenübertragung, sowie die Struktur herkömmlicher CDR-Architekturen gegeben.

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The unbelievable true story of the man now pardoned by President Trump In 2011, a twenty-six-year-old programmer named Ross Ulbricht launched the ultimate free market: the Silk Road, a clandestine Web site hosted on the Dark Web where anyone could trade anything - drugs, hacking software, forged passports, counterfeit cash, poisons - free of the government's watchful eye. While the federal government were undertaking an epic two-year manhunt for the site's elusive proprietor, the Silk Road quickly ballooned into a $1.2 billion enterprise. Ross embraced his new role as kingpin, taking drastic steps to protect himself - including ordering a hit on a former employee. As Ross made plans to disappear forever, the Feds raced against the clock to catch a man they weren't sure even existed, searching for a needle in the haystack of the global Internet. Drawing on exclusive access to key players and two billion digital words and images Ross left behind, New York Times bestselling author Nick Bilton offers a tale filled with twists and turns, lucky breaks and unbelievable close calls. It's a story of the boy next door's ambition gone criminal, spurred on by the clash between the new world of libertarian-leaning, anonymous, decentralised Web advocates and the old world of government control, order and the rule of law.

Discover the real story behind Disney's latest blockbuster adaptation The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, and the iconic Nutcracker Christmas ballet, as told by Alexandre Dumas 'How could you imagine, silly child, that this toy, which is made of cloth and wood, could possibly be alive?' The nutcracker doll that mysterious Godfather Drosselmeyer gives to little Marie for Christmas is no ordinary toy. On Christmas Eve, as the clocks strike midnight, Marie watches as the Nutcracker and her entire cabinet of playthings come to life and boldly do battle against the evil Mouse King and his armies. But this is only the start of the tale. Read on for enchantment and transformation; enter a world by turns fantastical and sinister, a kingdom of dolls and spun-sugar palaces, and learn the true history of the brave little Nutcracker.

"We tried to live with 120 percent intensity, rather than waiting for death. We read and read, trying to understand why we had to die in our early twenties. We felt the clock ticking away towards our death, every sound of the clock shortening our lives." So wrote Irokawa Daikichi, one of the many kamikaze pilots, or tokkotai, who faced almost certain death in the futile military operations conducted by Japan at the end of World War II. This moving history presents diaries and correspondence left by members of the tokkotai and other Japanese student soldiers who perished during the war. Outside of Japan, these kamikaze pilots were considered unbridled fanatics and chauvinists who willingly sacrificed their lives for the emperor. But the writings explored here by Emiko Ohnuki-Tierney clearly and eloquently speak otherwise. A significant number of the kamikaze were university students who were drafted and forced to volunteer for this desperate military operation. Such young men were the intellectual elite of modern Japan: steeped in the classics and major works of philosophy, they took Descartes' "I think, therefore I am" as their motto. And in their diaries and correspondence, as Ohnuki-Tierney shows, these student soldiers wrote long and often heartbreaking soliloquies in which they poured out their anguish and fear, expressed profound ambivalence toward the war, and articulated thoughtful opposition to their nation's imperialism. A salutary correction to the many caricatures of the kamikaze, this poignant work will be essential to anyone interested in the history of Japan and World War II.

Banished for centuries, as punishment for trying to measure time, the inventor of the world's first clock is finally granted his freedom, along with a mission: a chance to redeem himself by teaching two people the true meaning of time. He returns to our world and embarks on a journey with two unlikely partners: a teenage girl who is about to give up on life and a wealthy, ageing businessman who wants to live for ever. To save himself, he must save them both. Gripping, and filled with deep human truth, this unforgettable story will inspire readers everywhere to reconsider their own notions of time and just how precious it truly is.

A warning to humankind from one of the world's greatest physicists 'What drives these pages is the guilty conscience of my profession, theoretical physics. My sole aim is to help avert what seems to me to be the unintended, yet scarcely avoidable, end point of the current politics of the governments we have elected: nuclear war.' The world is rearming and embroiled in endless conflict. The Doomsday Clock has now been set to 85 seconds to midnight, with the risk of nuclear war the highest it has ever been. Why do we always fail to learn from the past? In this urgent book, acclaimed physicist Carlo Rovelli reframes the history of nuclear weapons: from how the atomic bomb was born to why Germany didn't build it and why the US used it, to the narrowly averted disasters of the Cold War and the political brinkmanship careering out of control today. As he grapples with the legacy of his scientific forebears, Rovelli spotlights the true nature of the decisions being made by leaders around the world today. A timely and ardent warning, this searing reckoning with short-sighted politics is essential reading for anyone seeking sanity at our moment of greatest peril.

Am I2. September 200I kam es zu einer ungeahnten Präsenz des Bundestages in nahezu allen öffentlich-rechtlichen und privaten Fernsehsendern. Neben ARD und ZDF übertrugen eine Reihe der Dritten Programme, der Ereignis- und Dokumentationskanal Phoenix, die Nachrichtensender n-tv und n 24 sowie Sat I, RTL, Pro sieben und Vox die Plenarsitzung des Bundestags. Anlass war die um 9 Uhr abgegebene Regierungserklärung von Bundeskanzler Gerhard Sehröder zu den Terroranschlägen auf das World Trade Center in New York und das Pentagon in Washington vor dem Deutschen Bundestag. Statt die I. Lesung des Haushalts 2002 abzuhalten, nutzten Regierung und Opposition das Bundestagsplenum, um den Angehörigen der Opfer ihre Anteilnahme auszusprechen und erste Einschätzungen der erschreckenden Ereignisse des Vortrages vorzunehmen. Die Wahl des Ortes war vorzüglich: als Forum unserer repräsentativen Demokratie konnte nur die Plenarversammlung des Bundestages diese Botschaft an die ganze Nation richten. Und nur Hörfunk und Fernsehen sind in der Lage, die flächendeckende Live-Übertragung der Sondersitzung zu gewährleisteten. Diese Symbiose von Politik und Fernsehen ist das Thema der Studie von Dietmar Schiller, die den prägnanten Titel "Brennpunkt Plenum" trägt.

Husbands Don and Rodney have lived a good long life. Together they've experienced the highest highs of love and family, and lows so low that they felt like the end of the world. Now, the world is ending for real. A wandering blackhole is coming for Earth and in a month everything and everyone they've ever known will be gone. Suddenly, after 40 years together, Don and Rodney are out of time. They're in a race against the clock to make it from Maine to Washington State to take care of some unfinished business before it's all over. On the road they meet those who refuse to believe death is coming and those who rush to meet it. But there are also people living their final days as best they know how-impromptu weddings, bright burning bonfires, shared meals, new friends. And as the blackhole draws near, among ball lightning and under a cracked moon in a kaleidoscope sky, Don and Rodney will look back on their lives and ask if their best was good enough. Is it enough to burn bright if nothing comes from the ashes?

Pliny's Natural History is an astonishingly ambitious work that ranges from astronomy to art and from geography to zoology. Mingling acute observation with often wild speculation, it offers a fascinating view of the world as it was understood in the first century AD, whether describing the danger of diving for sponges, the first water-clock, or the use of asses' milk to remove wrinkles. Pliny himself died while investigating the volcanic eruption that destroyed Pompeii in AD 79, and the natural curiosity that brought about his death is also very much evident in the Natural History - a book that proved highly influential right up until the Renaissance and that his nephew, Pliny the younger, described 'as full of variety as nature itself'.
