Protect Your Assets: How to Avoid Falling Victim to the Government's Forfeiture Laws артикул 1563d.

Book DescriptionIts the middle of the night, and suddenly youre awakened by a swarm of armed, black-clad law enforcement agents storming through your front door with a warrant to search your property After ripping the place apart, theyve found nothing illegal, but based on information theyve obtained elsewhere, they inform you that ожива property is being seized :Never Not in America,: youre probable saying But if you think this couldnt happen to you, youd better think twice The advent of Americas "war on drugs" in the 1980s greatly expanded the power of law enforcement to seize private property based on suspicion of illegal activity alone While recent laws have attempted to curtail this type of government authority run amok, property forfeitures continue unabated for the most part because the financial incentive is so great: no U S tax has ever approached the revenue-raising potential of the asset forfeitures that have taken this country by storm---to the point that they have become a routine part of law-enforcement procedure In this book, author Adam Starchild, recounts the appalling true stories of countless innocent citizens whose lives have been turned upside down and torn apart by government confiscation of their homes, businesses, vehicles, and bank accounts---without due process Youll find out how others like you have unwittingly fallen victim to this outrageous abuse of government power, exactly what circumstances can place you and your property at risk, and what you can and must do to protect your assets before it happens to you.  2005 г ISBN 0894992341.

New Century, New Deal: How To Turn Your Wages Into Wealth Through Social Security Choice артикул 1573d.

When it comes to your retirement, do you want an I O U from Washington, or a secure investment account that you own and control? For you to retire with a nest egg worth $1 million or more, you don't need to be a quiz show genius You don't need to win a lottery jackpot And you don't need to get lucky in Las Vegas What you do need is a far better return on your money оживш than Social Security provides today You need the freedom to invest part of your Social Security taxes in the real American economy through your own personal retirement account It's your money - shouldn't it be your choice? This is the bold, provocative premise offered by Wade Dokken, CEO of a $30 billion financial services company With two decades of experience helping people save and invest for retirement, Dokken explains your enormous personal stake in saving Social Security "Short of war, no issue government can affect will touch the lives of more Americans than reforming Social Security," writes Dokken, a Baby Boomer "It is the single most important personal finance issue of our time, and the time for change has come " Dokken articulates the power of personal retirement accounts and why such accounts are fair and effective and are already improving the quality of life for workers around the world A lifelong Democrat, Dokken also writes the first book of its kind - one that sharply criticizes his own party's resistance to Social Security Choice and warns the Democratic leadership to embrace change or risk being swept out of power Refreshingly idealistic and remarkably realistic, New Century, New Deal is a clarion call to build upon FDR's 20th century institution with a 21st century sense of innovation and imagination If you pay Social Security taxes, this is your handbook for the future.  ISBN 0895262401.

The Future of the Chemical Industry (ACS Symposium) артикул 1575d.

The global chemical industry is undergoing rapid and fundamental changes, from the widening of globalized competition, to erratic and dramatic raw material price changes, and the looming impact of "climate change" legislation and treaties The "Great Recession" has further impacted industry in ways that have yet to be ожига fully understood One strategy to deal with these problems has been observed in the petrochemical area: close older plants in the US and Europe and shift production to backward integrated plants in the Persian Gulf by partnering with local state-owned companies A new study is presented that shows university graduates with degrees in chemistry at all levels have been finding it increasingly difficult to find employment, while those with degrees in chemical engineering are very much in demand This trend is not really new, simply ignored previously, as the data have been available for over twenty years Inflation-adjusted starting salaries for chemists have remained stagnant for two decades, while those for chemical engineers have grown steadily during the same period One industry sector that still holds promise of continuing growth is pharmaceuticals However, government cost controls and limitations on patent rights present a strong challenge to drug companies; their strategies to cope with these problems in a number of individual country markets are reviewed and discussed European-based chemical have found that slowing domestic population growth is pushing them to emphasize exports Many view China as the market with the most appeal; major product and market segments in China are analyzed from the viewpoint of an overseas producer looking for offshore business The astonishing growth and evolution of China's manufacturing sector continues to affect chemical producers in virtually every other country Chinese companies are now moving up the value chain, driven mainly by the need to satisfy domestic markets since the Great Recession has sharply curtailed overseas demand for Chinese exports The US Government is continuing to fund alternative energy technologies and the current state of the art in fuel cells is reviewed.  2010 г Твердый переплет, 144 стр ISBN 0841200025.

Barrier Properties of Polymer Clay Nanocomposites (Nanotechnology Science and Technology) артикул 1581d.
Barrier Properties of Polymer Clay Nanocomposites (Nanotechnology Science and Technology) артикул 1581d.

Polymer nanocomposites are organic-inorganic hybrids where the high aspect ratio inorganic filler can be delaminated in the organic matrix at the nanometer scale, thus leading to significant enhancement of composite properties at very low filler volume fractions With the advancement of polymer nanocomposites technology, significant enhancements ожидл in mechanical and thermal properties of the composites could be achieved However, other important properties like gas barrier properties, which form an absolutely necessary requirement for the use of materials in packaging and storage applications, were relatively neglected By improving the barrier performance of the materials by incorporation of high aspect ratio nano platelets, one can expect to reduce the thickness of the commercial packaging laminates and other materials where thick material is required to be used to provide barrier to various gases This can thus lead to significant amount of savings in the material costs and can make the polymer materials more light and also transparent as the nano scale dispersed filler would not scatter light This book examines the factors affecting barrier properties enhancement in polar polymer matrices, which are different from case when non polar polymers are involved, thus indicating that the performance has to be quantized by case-by-case basis The commonly used conventional models for prediction of permeation reduction are also less representative of the true microstructure of the nanocomposites Thus the barrier performance of the polymer nanocomposite materials is also explored, separate from the more bulk based mechanical properties.  2010 г Твердый переплет, 271 стр ISBN 1608760219.

Climate change policy and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions are currently discussed at all scales, ranging from the Kyoto Protocol to the increasingly frequent advertisement of ''carbon neutrality'' in consumer products However, the only policy option usually considered is the reduction of direct emissions Another potential policy ожидн tool, currently neglected, is the reduction of indirect emissions, i e , the emissions embodied in goods and services, or the payments thereof This book addresses the accounting of indirect carbon emissions (as embodied in international trade) within the framework of input-output analysis and derives an indicator of environmental responsibility as the average of consumer and producer responsibility A global multi-regional input-output model is built, using databases on international trade and greenhouse gas emissions, from which embodied carbon emissions and carbon responsibilities are obtained Carbon Responsibility and Embodied Emissions consists of a theoretical part, concerning the choice of environmental indicators, and an applied part, reporting an environmental multi-regional input-output model It will be of particular interest to postgraduate students and researchers in Ecological Economics, Environmental Input-Output Analysis, and Industrial Ecology.  2010 г Твердый переплет, 128 стр ISBN 041547020X.

Global Warming and Climate Change Policy: A Survey of Selected Countries: Strategies for adaptation артикул 1585d.

Global warming is an average increase in the temperature of the atmosphere near the Earth's surface and in the troposphere, which can contribute to changes in global climate patterns Global warming can occur from a variety of causes, both natural and human induced In common usage, "global warming" often refers to the warming that can ожидт occur as a result of increased emissions of greenhouse gases from human activities Climate change refers to any significant change in measures of climate (such as temperature, precipitation, or wind) lasting for an extended period (decades or longer) Climate change may result from: * natural factors, such as changes in the sun's intensity or slow changes in the Earth's orbit around the sun, * natural processes within the climate system (e g changes in ocean circulation), * human activities that change the atmosphere's composition (e g through burning fossil fuels) and the land surface (e g deforestation, reforestation, urbanization, desertification, etc ).  2010 г Мягкая обложка, 244 стр ISBN 3838341384.

Liquid Crystalline Networks for Electroluminescent Displays: Ease of deposition of small molecules with the stability of polymers allows multi-layer photopatterned EL devices артикул 1587d.

This work presents the first low molar mass organic electroluminescent (EL) material to form a nematic glass and then emit plane-polarised light from the vitrified state on application of an electric field Photocrosslinkable molecules are also discussed which form insoluble films on illumination with ultra- violet light This approach combines ожидц the ease of deposition of small molecules with the robustness and stability of polymers, allowing simple fabrication of multi-layer EL devices and photopatterning A range of conjugated low molar- mass molecules are considered, containing the anthracene, perylene and fluorene cores An acrylate and several diene photopolymerisable derivatives of the fluorenes undergo photocrosslinking A diene shows no significant degradation for an optimal exposure and a doped photo-alignment layer is used for the first time to obtain polarised EL with ratio 11:1 and a brightness of 80 cdm-2 from the crosslinked diene The insoluble crosslinked network allows the spin-coating deposition of an electrontransporting over-layer, resulting in increased brightness.  2010 г Мягкая обложка, 288 стр ISBN 3838334744.
