Everyone knows Uber drivers are expected to be courteous and attentive, both to their passengers and to those on the road. They are not expected to accept that invitation to the swinger party, flee the scene of a fatal accident, nor are they expected to be a convicted felon on probation. Unfortunately, this Joe Schmo is not your everyday Uber driver. I began sharing rides with the audacious hope to one day escape the road blocks stalling my merger onto the freeway of creative success. But when a typical shift U-turns into a series of detours involving herpes ridden riders, sexy sorority sisters, and blundering bank robbers, I arrive (at gunpoint) miles from my desired destination. ""Rideshares, Wrecks, and Sex: Confessions of a Convicted Uber Driver"" is based upon actual events that transpired over the year that I covertly drove for Uber while on probation. I confesses outlandish details in a highlight reel of wrecks (both car and train) and sex, effectively answering ""What's your craziest story?""
Gorazde : rapport från en FN-skyddszon under kriget i Bosnien 1992-95
Det skulle inte kunna hända igen efter andra världskriget. Inte efter kalla krigets slut. Inte nu, när kommunismen, detta ondskans imperium, äntligen besegrats av Demokratin och Den fria marknaden. Inte mitt i Europa. Men det hände igen ändå. I Jugoslavien 1991-1999. Krig mitt i Europa. Världssamfundet verkade stå handfallet när grannar massakrerade, torterade, fördrev grannar. Maktlöst inför alla sönderskjutna byar och etniska rensningar. Uppgivet inför allt fler rapporter om mass-slakter, koncentrationsläger och systematiska våldtäkter. Som bäst kunde man skicka lite hjälpsändningar och inrätta skyddade zoner i FN:s regi. Utan att ge FN mandat att försvara dessa skyddade zoner. Däremot förstod politiker, journalister, historiker, experter och de tongivande professionella intellektuella snart varför det som inte skulle kunna hända igen, mitt i Europa, hade hänt igen ändå: Det berodde förstås på den primitiva, grälsjuka Balkan-mentaliteten. På Tysklands sammansvärjning med storkroatiska fascister mot Serbien. På folkmordiska drömmar om ett Storserbien. På USA som ville slå sönder Europas sista socialistiska stat och inlemma spillrorna i sitt globala imperium. På Balkans Hitler, den serbiske presidenten Milosevic. Eller bara på ett ödesdigert utbrott av ren och skär ondska. Efter att ha läst seriejournalisten Joe Saccos intensiva, gripande och märkligt upplyftande porträtt av människorna i skyddszonen Gorazde, som i över tre år hållit stånd mot bosnienserbernas belägring och tunga angrepp, förstår man inte längre varför det som inte skulle kunna hända igen hände ändå. Däremot har man kanske blivit lite klokare. På ett djupt oroande och skrämmande sätt. Och man anar att det som inte ska kunna hända igen, inte efter Jugoslavien, kan hända igen. Även mitt i Europa.

After lengthy research, scientists successfully synthesized intestinal absorption inhibitors: the IAI. At last, mankind can free itself from the yoke of hunger repression to avoid overweight and its collateral damage. All it takes is one pill: whoever takes it can eat whatever he or she wants without any change in body weight. At that moment, few are aware of the radical social transformation that is about to take place: the revolution of hunger, in which half of humanity will be trapped in the vice of gluttony. A young man of twenty-six, Jan Roger, manages to lead a movement to reject the IAI. He is soon declared a dissident and has to make a spectacular escape to execute an ingenious plan to give hope to a creative minority of counter-revolutionaries.

In recent years, Arab television has undergone a dramatic and profound transformation from terrestrial, government-owned, national channels to satellite, privately owned, transnational networks. The latter is the Arab television that matters today, economically, socially and politically. The resulting pan-Arab industry is vibrant, diverse, and fluid - very different, the authors of this major new study argue, from the prevailing view in the West, which focuses only on the al-Jazeera network. Based on a wealth of primary Arabic language sources, interviews with Arab television executives, and the authors' personal and professional experience with the industry, Arab Television Industries tells the story of that transformation, featuring compelling portraits of major players and institutions, and captures dominant trends in the industry. Readers learn how the transformation of Arab television came to be, the different kinds of channels, how programs are made and promoted, and how they are regulated. Throughout, the analysis focuses on the interaction of the television industry with Arab politics, business, societies and cultures.

The digital has emerged as a driving force of change that is reshaping everyday life and affecting nearly every sphere of vital activity. Yet, its impact has been far from uniform. The multifaceted implications of these ongoing shifts differ markedly across the world, demanding a nuanced understanding of specific manifestations and local experiences of the digital. In The Digital Double Bind, Mohamed Zayani and Joe F. Khalil explore how the Middle East's digital turn intersects with complex political, economic, and socio-cultural dynamics. Drawing on local research and rich case studies, they show how the same forces that brought promises of change through digital transformation have also engendered tensions and contradictions. The authors contend that the ensuing disjunctures have ensnared the region in a double bind, which represents the salient feature of an unfolding digital turn. The same conditions that drive the state, market, and public immersion in the digital also inhibit the region's drive to change. The Digital Double Bind reconsiders the question of technology and change, moving beyond binary formulations and familiar trajectories of the network society. It offers a path-breaking analysis of change and stasis in the Middle East and provides a roadmap for a critical engagement with digitality in the Global South.

Joe Wilder was a man for all seasons, an individual who will forever be an inveterate achiever, a man who has made this a better world by setting a high standard for others to follow. The New York Times hailed him as a "Renaissance Man." In this autobiography he encapsulated a half century as a committed doctor highlighting the powerful forces and actions which take place in a major hospital setting. This book combines the compassion of this exceptional and surgeon and his forceful paintings from inside the operating room to paintings of sports and still life paintings representing the beauty of nature. He brings to bear skills perfected as a surgeon, acute powers of observation, knowledge of anatomy, concentration and a delft bold hand. Joe was a "healer" every minute of his life and that is how he wanted to be remembered. He never refused help to anyone regardless of their ability to pay. He saved thousands of lives in the operating room and taught his skills to the thousands of surgeons he trained during his thirty five years as a Chief and Professor of Surgery. He said that he owed much of his success in life to his parents and to his education at Dartmouth where he became an All- American Lacrosse player establishing records that have never been broken. Joe was the all-time highest goal scorer per game against all opponents and in 1987 was inducted into The Lacrosse Hall of Fame. He was awarded many honors in his lifetime including the Markle Award, The Dartmouth College Presidential Medal for Leadership in Art and Science; he was honored as "Man of The Year" at The Yankee Stadium in New York along with Willie Mays and was elected to membership in the Dartmouth College Phi Beta Kappa. Joe Wilder understood what Hippocrates meant when he wrote "Wherever the art of medicine is loved there is also the love of humanity". This ethical statement is in effect the motto that explains the motivation of his surgeon paintings and this autobiography.
