The roaring '20s was the wildest decade of the 20th century It was a heady time, dominated by two significant events, Prohibition, and the soaring stock market. More alcohol was consumed during Prohibition than before the law was enacted. And loose money, only ten percent down, bought anything from stocks to autos, homes, and appliances. With the stock market open to everyone, fortunes were made and lost in days.Enter this era with Giancarlo Giambrone, a Sicilian emigre of a wealthy, centuries-old olive oil business, vowing to earn his own fortune. Join him as he becomes a stockbroker, foresees the 1929 market crash, and traverses the depression, becoming even wealthier. Enjoy his successes, romances, travels, and contributions to society, while surviving tragedy and standing up to FDR.Joe Reina BioMeet Joe Reina, entrepreneurial businessman turned author. Joe came up through the ranks in the apparel industry from salesman to manager, to store owner, business mogul, and real estate developer. An avid reader of history, he took the lessons from the past to navigate the economic ups and downs of the mid-twentieth century. His businesses entailed international travel and enabled him to explore a good part of the world. That exposure helped satisfy his lifelong desire to experience the pleasure of meeting people all over the world and then share his travels with his family and friends.Throughout his successes, Joe never forgot his roots of growing up on the "hill" of St. Louis and the fortitude of his spirited mother, an emigre from Sicily. He wrote the book, The Goat Sleeps in the Kitchen, to tell her remarkable story of becoming a successful businesswoman in the early twentieth century. His fascination with that era resulted in the birth of his fictional alter ego, Giancarlo Giambrone, one of the world's great entrepreneurs. Joe lives in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Educare alla libertà: L'esperienza di don Giancarlo Ugolini, sacerdote della Chiesa riminese
Independently Published

La temperie culturale entro cui siamo chiamati a vivere non certamente, a parte le dichiarazioni ufficiali di politici e generi affini, quella in cui la libert sia pi onorata e rispettata. Di fatto sufficiente esprimere un'opinione o un giudizio differente da quello ritenuto, generalmente con violenza, politicamente corretto per andare incontro allo spiacevole risultato di un'aggressione non sempre solo verbale. Parlare dunque di educazione alla libert , a parte l'apparenza, non certamente un discorso facile, a meno che, come nello scritto di Bruno Angelini, il discorso venga affrontato non in termini teorici, ma proponendolo mediante la visitazione di una storia ed esperienza personali. E nel caso storia ed esperienza sono quelle di un uomo, don Giancarlo Ugolini, che ha segnato con la propria presenza ed attivit un lungo periodo della vita della citt di Rimini. Dopo una premessa consistente, ed inevitabile, in una breve nota biografica, viene proposta l'attivit di don Giancarlo secondo uno schema interessante e certamente efficace nel render conto delle ragioni profonde delle scelte da lui compiute. Dopo aver parlato dell'incontro di don Giancarlo con don Luigi Giussani si passa poi ad affrontare singoli aspetti dell'azione del primo e normalmente ci avviene mediante il recupero attento, quantunque stringato, dell'insegnamento e dell'attivit del secondo, ma questa operazione non ha l'aspetto, per cos dire, di una giustificazione, bens d'una esplicitazione del fondamento esistenziale, certamente non teorico, delle scelte compiute. Di fatto non ci si trova davanti ad una sorta di rapporto in cui qualcuno d delle direttive e qualcun altro le esegue, con maggiore o minore rigore. Ma si vede chiaramente che l'agire di don Giancarlo determinato dalla persuasione profonda della seria testimonianza data da don Giussani. Cosi come presentata dall'autore l'attivit di don Giancarlo si svolge a partire da tre fondamentali dati: il primo certamente quello della condivisione e della validit e risolutivit per s dell'insegnamento proposto da don Giussani; il secondo, che l'esito di una seria verifica del primo, consiste nella persuasione della validit sostanziale e non appena particolare di quell'insegnamento; il terzo il desiderio che ci che si sperimentato come vero e valido venga partecipato senza riserve ad amici, conoscenti, fratelli di fede, comunque non escludendo quanti siano, almeno inizialmente, estranei ad una comune esperienza di fede. Muovendo dai dati proposti si svolge poi una serie di considerazioni e di intraprese articolate intorno anzitutto alla questione educativa e al riguardo il sorgere ed affermarsi della Fondazione Karis Foundation viene proposto non come prodotto di un lampo di genio repentino ed improvviso ma come viluppo coerente della maturazione progressiva dell'interesse di alcuni genitori ed educatori. Analogamente l'altra realizzazione ben nota compiutasi sotto la guida di don Giancarlo, il Meeting per l'Amicizia tra i Popoli, presentata nella sua reale fisionomia di frutto del desiderio di dar carne all'insegnamento di don Giussani in consonanza stretta con l'indole e la fisionimia della citt di Rimini. Nemmeno in questo caso, dunque, ci troviamo davanti a qualcosa di calato meccanicamente da un'intuizione ad un'applicazione della stessa, ma si tratta di un'esperienza viva e profonda che sente in s l'urgenza di comunicarsi ad altri e di comunicarsi obbedendo alla fisionimia specifica di colui che sceglie di comunicare. Come penso si possa notare, nel caso della Karis come in quello del Meeting, emerge inequivocabilmente la forza e l'efficacia di una reale libert spinta a proporsi ad altri dalla persuasiva verifica di una fede che sa produrre vita, realizzando cosi" la verit ultima del cuore dell'uomo.Don Carlo Rusconi

Seismic Wave Analysis for Near Surface Applications presents the foundational tools necessary to properly analyze surface waves acquired according to both active and passive techniques. Applications range from seismic hazard studies, geotechnical surveys and the exploration of extra-terrestrial bodies. Surface waves have become critical to near-surface geophysics both for geotechnical goals and seismic-hazard studies. Included in this book are the related theories, approaches and applications which the lead editor has assembled from a range of authored contributions carefully selected from the latest developments in research. A unique blend of theory and practice, the book’s concepts are based on exhaustive field research conducted over the past decade from the world’s leading seismologists and geophysicists.
In 1517, the Ottoman Sultan Selim ¨the Grim¨ conquered Egypt and brought his empire for the first time in history into direct contact with the trading world of the Indian Ocean. During the decades that followed, the Ottomans became progressively more engaged in the affairs of this vast and previously unfamiliar region, eventually to the point of launching a systematic ideological, military and commercial challenge to the Portuguese Empire, their main rival for control of the lucrative trade routes of maritime Asia. The Ottoman Age of Exploration is the first comprehensive historical account of this century-long struggle for global dominance, a struggle that raged from the shores of the Mediterranean to the Straits of Malacca, and from the interior of Africa to the steppes of Central Asia. Based on extensive research in the archives of Turkey and Portugal, as well as materials written on three continents and in a half dozen languages, it presents an unprecedented picture of the global reach of the Ottoman state during the sixteenth century. It does so through a dramatic recounting of the lives of sultans and viziers, spies, corsairs, soldiers-of-fortune, and women from the imperial harem. Challenging traditional narratives of Western dominance, it argues that the Ottomans were not only active participants in the Age of Exploration, but ultimately bested the Portuguese in the game of global politics by using sea power, dynastic prestige, and commercial savoir faire to create their own imperial dominion throughout the Indian Ocean.
