Tribe Wanted by Ben Keene Pdf

Paradise or Bust is the fascinating adventure story of Tribewanted, a revolutionary eco-tourism project founded by twentysomething Ben Keene. As featured in the BBC documentary series, Keene's story follows the ups and downs of a global online network of like-minded travellers and an indigenous Fijian community as they attempt to build a new life on a 200-acre island in the South Pacific. All major decisions on the island are voted on by an online tribe that anyone around the world can join. There are many challenges to overcome. A fire sweeps the island, a military coup (delayed until the end of a rugby match!) brews on the mainland, and a tropical cyclone threatens to wipe out the emerging village. Online there are other storms to fight, as accusations of scam artistry, tribal politics and the regular grind of debates and decision-making among Tribewanted's 1000+ members push the adventure and the business to the very edge. But in the end, with a little luck and a lot of hard work, they might just build their paradise... Now a major 5 part series for transmission on BBC2 in winter 2008.

Our Journey to Corporate Sanity by Ayelet Baron Pdf

“A fantastic and engaging read!” — Ruth Ross, Author of Coming Alive: The Journey to Reengage Your Life And Career “...a mirror to reflect and a tool to redefine the purpose and responsibility of the business word.” — Rami Kleinmann, President & CEO of the Canadian Friends of the Hebrew University The prevailing mindset in business, which values profit above our own well-being and the environment that sustains us, is insane. But creating a healthy, humane world requires more than new organizational models that merely shift the deck chairs on a sinking ship. We need to entirely re-imagine the nature of business, work, and life. In Our Journey to Corporate Sanity, Ayelet Baron guides us through transformational stories from leading business pioneers who share how they are profitably creating a more beautiful and humane world. Draw from their collective wisdom to help chart your own journey to a new mindset of 21st-century leadership.

WestFae by KT Irons Pdf

WestFae - A New Young Adult Fantasy Series Lou O’Connor’s soul has been wounded many times over. His father abandoned his mother, who then died giving birth to Lou. The girl he loved married his best friend. He has strange abilities that some might call a gift… but Lou calls a curse because they cost him his true love. And, although he appears a perpetual 17 years old, he has been alive for more than 150 years... without a clue why. Now, decades later in 1882, Lou feels compelled to return to the valley in the Colorado frontier that he’d once called home, but had fled from in grief and betrayal. He doesn't know why he feels so powerfully drawn. But he’s had a strange, recurring dream that his true love needed him. And then he saw the girl… Sixteen years old, with flowing auburn hair, hazel eyes—and the spitting image of the girl he had loved so many years before. And she is in trouble. Her ranch—the one originally founded by Lou and his best friend—is the target of two cattle barons in a vicious range war. A Powerful New Take on Fantasy Fiction Young Adult Readers Will Love But Lou has a complication that he doesn't know about. Over two thousand years earlier, as iron weapons and armor had begun to engulf the old world in Ireland, the Fae chose to migrate to a New World across the western ocean. However, a rogue Fae Lord chafes at the hidden, anonymous role that the Fae in the New World must fill. Now he plans an uprising to shift the balance of power. And, as part of that uprising, he intends to purge all human blood from the New World. Lou unknowingly crosses paths with this Fae Lord, and, without understanding the depth of the conflict, must end it. What begins as an attempt to save the ranch belonging to the granddaughter of Lou's once-best friend turns into a conflict that will determine the future of an entire continent. WestFae is Book 1 of an epic new series of fantasy young adult readers will truly love.

The Neo-Indians by Jacques Galinier,Antoinette Molinié Pdf

The Neo-Indians is a rich ethnographic study of the emergence of the neo-Indian movement—a new form of Indian identity based on largely reinvented pre-colonial cultures and comprising a diverse group of people attempting to re-create purified pre-colonial indigenous beliefs and ritual practices without the contaminating influences of modern society. There is no full-time neo-Indian. Both indigenous and non-indigenous practitioners assume Indian identities only when deemed spiritually significant. In their daily lives, they are average members of modern society, dressing in Western clothing, working at middle-class jobs, and retaining their traditional religious identities. As a result of this part-time status the neo-Indians are often overlooked as a subject of study, making this book the first anthropological analysis of the movement. Galinier and Molinié present and analyze four decades of ethnographic research focusing on Mexico and Peru, the two major areas of the movement’s genesis. They examine the use of public space, describe the neo-Indian ceremonies, provide analysis of the ceremonies’ symbolism, and explore the close relationship between the neo-Indian religion and tourism. The Neo-Indians will be of great interest to ethnographers, anthropologists, and scholars of Latin American history, religion, and cultural studies.

Wild Coast by John Gimlette Pdf

Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana are among the least-known places in South America: nine hundred miles of muddy coastline giving way to a forest so dense that even today there are virtually no roads through it; a string of rickety coastal towns situated between the mouths of the Orinoco and Amazon Rivers, where living is so difficult that as many Guianese live abroad as in their homelands; an interior of watery, green anarchy where border disputes are often based on ancient Elizabethan maps, where flora and fauna are still being discovered, where thousands of rivers remain mostly impassable. And under the lens of John Gimlette—brilliantly offbeat, irreverent, and canny—these three small countries are among the most wildly intriguing places on earth. On an expedition that will last three months, he takes us deep into a remarkable world of swamp and jungle, from the hideouts of runaway slaves to the vegetation-strangled remnants of penal colonies and forts, from “Little Paris” to a settlement built around a satellite launch pad. He recounts the complicated, often surprisingly bloody, history of the region—including the infamous 1978 cult suicide at Jonestown—and introduces us to its inhabitants: from the world’s largest ants to fluorescent purple frogs to head-crushing jaguars; from indigenous tribes who still live by sorcery to descendants of African slaves, Dutch conquerors, Hmong refugees, Irish adventurers, and Scottish outlaws; from high-tech pirates to hapless pioneers for whom this stunning, strangely beautiful world (“a sort of X-rated Garden of Eden”) has become home by choice or by force. In Wild Coast, John Gimlette guides us through a fabulously entertaining, eye-opening—and sometimes jaw-dropping—journey.
