IF WE SAY THAT NEPAL HAS PLUNGED INTO DARKNESS, THEN IT IS OUR DUTY, OUR RIGHT, AND INDEED, OUR JOY TO SAVE IT. THE FATE OF THE COUNTRY IS IN OUR HANDS. In Paradise in Our Backyard, Karna Sakya—conservationist, entrepreneur and patriot—relates how he set up the now iconic Kathmandu Guest House in his family’s historic house in Thamel. The hotel ushered in a new chapter in tourism in Nepal and was instrumental in establishing Thamel as the multicultural hub for tourism that it is today. He subsequently set up other hotels and lodges and played a pioneering role in introducing eco-tourism and adventure tourism in Nepal. He introduced the concept of ‘niche’ tourism in Nepal, packaging subjects of interest for discerning travellers, and was also one of the principal architects of the hugely successful ‘Visit Nepal Year’ organized by the Nepali government in 1998 which boosted tourism and gave a huge fillip to the economy. Sakya’s account of growing up in a large Newari joint family in Kathmandu, his higher education in the Forest Research Institute, Dehra Dun, his work with the forest department and his distinguished career as entrepreneur and hotelier makes compelling reading. Karna Sakya made an immense contribution to the social sector as well. In 1987, after losing his wife and daughter to cancer, he overcame personal grief to build Nepal’s first cancer hospital by coming up with the innovative idea of levying a one-paisa tax on every cigarette sold in the country. Paradise in Our Backyard, translated by the author from the Nepali best-seller Soch, is a lucid, engaging and honest account of a remarkable life. In a nation that is today battling pessimism and uncertainty, it makes the inspiring point that one man can make a difference, that change can be brought about by hard work and unflagging determination.

Tourists exult in Bahia, Brazil, as a tropical paradise infused with the black population's one-of-a-kind vitality. But the alluring images of smiling black faces and dancing black bodies masks an ugly reality of anti-black authoritarian violence. Christen A. Smith argues that the dialectic of glorified representations of black bodies and subsequent state repression reinforces Brazil's racially hierarchal society. Interpreting the violence as both institutional and performative, Smith follows a grassroots movement and social protest theater troupe in their campaigns against racial violence. As Smith reveals, economies of black pain and suffering form the backdrop for the staged, scripted, and choreographed afro-paradise that dazzles visitors. The work of grassroots organizers exposes this relationship, exploding illusions and asking unwelcome questions about the impact of state violence performed against the still-marginalized mass of Afro-Brazilians. Based on years of field work, Afro-Paradise is a passionate account of a long-overlooked struggle for life and dignity in contemporary Brazil.

When Eric Toensmeier and Jonathan Bates moved into a duplex in a run-down part of Holyoke, Massachusetts, the tenth-of-an-acre lot was barren ground and bad soil, peppered with broken pieces of concrete, asphalt, and brick. The two friends got to work designing what would become not just another urban farm, but a "permaculture paradise" replete with perennial broccoli, paw paws, bananas, and moringa—all told, more than two hundred low-maintenance edible plants in an innovative food forest on a small city lot. The garden—intended to function like a natural ecosystem with the plants themselves providing most of the garden's needs for fertility, pest control, and weed suppression—also features an edible water garden, a year-round unheated greenhouse, tropical crops, urban poultry, and even silkworms. In telling the story of Paradise Lot, Toensmeier explains the principles and practices of permaculture, the choice of exotic and unusual food plants, the techniques of design and cultivation, and, of course, the adventures, mistakes, and do-overs in the process. Packed full of detailed, useful information about designing a highly productive permaculture garden, Paradise Lot is also a funny and charming story of two single guys, both plant nerds, with a wild plan: to realize the garden of their dreams and meet women to share it with. Amazingly, on both counts, they succeed.

One doesn''t have to be a rocket scientist to realize that there is something seriously wrong with our present civilization. The global economy is rapidly collapsing, the world is beset with terrorism, war, famine, drought and virulent diseases. Pollution abounds and global desertification increases at the alarming rate of 20,000 square miles annually.These seemingly unrelated events are, in actuality, the result of a master plan for transferring the wealth of the global populace into the hands of thirteen interrelated family bloodlines, who have covertly been the overlords of humanity since prior to the dawn of recorded history.In this explosive and compelling book, author Brian Desborough presents the evidence which demonstrates that the 9/11 disaster was orchestrated by this evil cabal, in order to accelerate the collapse of the global economy. The book is not doom and gloom however. Drawing from many fields of research, this startling book presents the suppressed technologically advanced methodology for providing the Global Village with the abundant pure water and pollution-free energy necessary for transforming planet Earth into a veritable paradise, and freeing us from the bonds of the present fossil fuel based economy.Information in this book demonstrates that planet Earth is a living entity, and that the science of Galileo, Newton and Einstein was seriously flawed.Born in the county of Dorset, in southern England, Brian Desborough has served as a Director of Research and Technology for several American companies, and has provided consultation to a company involved in deep space research. He is the author of the book "They Cast no Shadows," a collection of his essays on the Illuminati, revisionist history and suppressed technologies.ExcerptPage 68One balmy evening about six years ago, the author attended a party held at a mansion in Santa Barbara, California. The author was sitting in the garden with friends when a stranger approached him from out of the darkness. The stranger apologized for crashing the party and said that he felt compelled to give something to someone and intuitively felt that the person was the author. He handed the author a package and left. Upon opening the package, the author discovered that its contents were research papers written by Lloyed Zirbes!In keeping with the work of such scientific giants as Nikola Tesla and Viktor Schauberger, the research of Lloyed Zirbes will have a profound effect upon technologies brought forth by future generations of scientists, if they become acquainted with Lloyd Zirbes'' experiments, for practical applications of his research would enable us to create communication systems (audio and video) based upon the broadcasting of gravity instead of electrons, anti gravitic systems for space travel, free energy systems and the ability to rearrange the atomic structure of matter by means of injected gravity.All bodies, regardless of whether they are a planet or a sub atomic particle, are in motion and are influenced by gravitational fields. In the case of the Milky Way galaxy, the primary gravitational field is that of the universe, whereas the sun''s gravitational field influences planet Earth. All bodies of matter are attracted toward the center of the gravitational field through which they move, but possessing their own weaker gravitational fields, which offer a repulsive force to that of the more powerful gravitational field, adopt a stable orbital path around the source of the stronger gravitational field. Zirbes'' experiments demonstrated that as a body falls it expels a force of extracted energy along the leading edge of the fall, which causes the body to rotate in the direction of the extraction. This extracted energy is expelled from the equatorial region of the body (the Bloch wall), then flows over the surface of the body to re-enter the body at the poles. According to Zirbes, the extracted energy is gravity. The centrifical force exerted on the rotating body also causes an ejection of mass from the body. Zirbes claimed that mass in motion was magnetism and that protons and electrons were clusters of sub atomic particles in motion. He stated that an electron was composed of eighty one such bodies while protons and neutrons each possessed twenty two thousand individual bodies, identical in composition to those comprising electrons. These bodies would correspond to the gluons of quantum mechanics and explains why a proton or ion has a much greater mass charge than an electron. The brilliant 19th century mathematician Georg Riemann achieved fame in the academic world by creating a metric tensor which allowed any point on a curved surface composed of four dimensions, to be defined by a collection of ten numbers. Reimann postulated that the warping of space created the apparent appearance of forces which are purely imaginary. He was unable however, to explain how gravity, electricity or magnetism were able to accomplish the warping of space.Einstein applied Reimann''s metric tensor to his own concept of warped space and hypothesized that the degree to which the space surrounding a body is curved is dependent upon the mass and energy inherent in that body. He was aware that the sun warped the path of light emitted from distant stars, thus creating an illusion of their true location, when viewed from Earth. He theorized that the distortion of the light path was caused by the curvature of space in the vicinity of the sun. His hypothesis concerning the warping of space is generally accepted as correct by present day theoretical physicists and mathematicians presumably because experiments, conducted during solar eclipses, have revealed that the light emitted from distant stars is indeed distorted in the vicinity of the sun.There is an alternate explanation for this occurrence however. The experiments of Lloyd Zirbes and his scientific team demonstrated that a rotating body expels extracted energy that forms a field which we call gravity, the strength of which is determined by the permeability of its mass and angular velocity of the body. The author suggests that it is the gravitational field of the sun that distorts the path of starlight, not the presence of curved space. In other words, curved space may only exist in the fertile imagination of mathematicians and theoretical physicists, not in the physical universe.

Do you think education works? Does it meet the needs of future society, business and most importantly, the average school leaver? In this book, Richard Wells explains his amazement at how all the components of New Zealand education collaborate in creating an ever forward-moving system better prepared for the 21st century than any other. After teaching in the UK, Wells moved to New Zealand in 2006 to find there was no prescribed curriculum and teachers were trusted to run the whole system, including writing high school graduation assessments themselves. The Government is appreciated by teachers as a supportive aide to them as they hold each other to account in a positive and collaborative nationally networked system. In New Zealand, teachers are proud of the education system they operate and develop with their students, some being unaware of how lucky they are. Wells explains each of the elements and organisations that jointly form the world's leading 21st Century education system. He describes the developments and decisions that were made in achieving this and how it is moving into a phase of using student-negotiated national assessments that few other countries' educators could even contemplate. The book is filled with useful diagrams and posters to illustrate key themes and pedagogies. Wells paints a picture of what happens when young people are measured by their depth of thinking and understanding and can personalise their approach to doing so. The book introduces you to a country where the leading people and schools shape the future of world public education.
