Avo is half of an avocado, and he's searching for Cado, his other half. It turns out that there are many characters that resemble Cado from a distance.

On the Origin of Quantum Physics: Forces by Proxy By Jørgen Karlsen The goal of the author is to describe the reality underpinning Quantum Physics. By doing so, General Relativity becomes a sub- domain of Quantum Physics, and in that sense the two theories are united, but they are not seen as being equally fundamental.In the first part of the book, the author introduces a new way to interpret the forces of nature according to a principle that he names Forces by Proxy. The basic principles of the new theory are easily understood for most people with some knowledge of physics.Placing Quantum Physics centre stage, he scrutinizes the vacuum energy showing what its strange phenomena really entail. What causes the vacuum fluctuations? Why 3 dimensions? What is the true nature of entanglement and superposition? Is there a local reality, like Einstein claimed? What is time?All these questions are answered within the concept of the theory presented. Finally, time and mass transformations caused by velo- city and gravity are brought together in one common formula.The consequences of the proposed theory are far reaching and will have major influence in many fields. This book is a wake-up call which requires thorough scrutiny by physicists everywhere.Physics

Aus kleinen Verhältnissen stammend und mit einem abgebrochenen Studium im Gepäck gerät Wolfgang Welt als Musikjournalist Anfang der achtziger Jahre in die Pop-Maschinerie. New Wave, Neue Deutsche Welle, Marabo, Sounds, Musik Express, Rockpalast, Herbert Grönemeyer, Dallas,Frauengeschichten, DJ-Dasein und immer wieder Buddy Holly sind Begleiterscheinungen einer kurzen, steilen Szenekarriere. Sie endet im Wahnsinn.Welt wird verhaftet und in die Psychiatrie gesteckt. Wieder halbwegs normal, schreibt er in großen Abständen drei autobiographische Romane, die hier vereint vorgelegt werden, der dritte als Erstveröffentlichung. 2002 erhält er ein Stipendium der Hermann- Lenz-Stiftung. Seit langen Jahren arbeitet er als Nachtportier im Schauspielhaus seiner Heimatstadt Bochum und hört regelmäßig WDR 4. Wolfgang Welt, geboren 1952 in Bochum, lebt dort (in seinem Elternhaus in der Bergarbeitersiedlung Wilhelmshöhe). Peggy Sue, erschienen zuerst 1986 im Konkret Literatur Verlag, kam 1997 erweitert und mit einem Vorwort von Leander Haußmann als Taschenbuch heraus. Der Tick wurde 2001 veröffentlicht. Der Tunnel am Ende des Lichts ist, wie gesagt, eine Erstveröffentlichung »Im ganzen: eine Version des Lebens, die man sich im Lesen nicht nur gefallen läßt, sondern die einen, schön holprig und schön schnittig, eine Zeitlang mitnimmt, und nicht bloß ins Ruhrgebiet.« Peter Handke

»Doris hilft« steht an einer Wand der Bochumer Uni, an der Wolfgang Welt in seinem Wahn vorbeiläuft. Doris, so hieß doch die Bedienung in seinem Stammlokal, die er geliebt hatte – Doris hilft ist der vierte Roman, den Welt seinem Leben als Autor, Biertrinker, Dauersohn und Nachtwächter auf der Bochumer Wilhelmshöhe und in deren Umgebung widmet. Lauter Nachrichten aus der Wirklichkeit (um 1990), aber es braucht jemanden wie Welt, den »größten Erzähler des Ruhrgebiets« (Willi Winkler), der sie uns aufgreift, »anleuchtet«, sichtbar macht. Im Anhang: »Bob Dylan & Buddy Holly. Kein Vergleich«, einer der besten Artikel des Musikjournalisten Wolfgang Welt aus dem Jahr 1991.

This unique picture book is a creation of Khrystyna Lukashchuk, a well-known Ukrainian author and artist recognized as one of the best illustrators of independent Ukraine. From the emergence of Ukraine through its darkest times to its final victory over evil, A Tale Of Light allows us to find answers to dramatic questions: how can we explain to children why there is a war in their country? Why can not the enemy leave the Ukrainian land in peace? What will help us to defeat the enemy for good? The profound symbolic images that the author recreated will guide the readers along their journey. Ukrainians have been tapping into them for long times to find a source of harmony and internal strength – they are a powerful source of Light sustained by Ukrainian history, culture, and language. No enemy, however big or conniving, can destroy this Light. From 3 to 6 years, 719 words Rightsholders: bondarenkosvetlak@gmail.com

Wenn der dritten Welt empfohlen wird, sich nicht wie Europa zu entwickeln, werden bestimmte Vorstellungen über den Entwicklungsweg Europas vorausgesetzt. Über eine Kritik an dem in solchem Denken implizierten Eurozentrismus hinaus stellt der Autor diese Annahmen in Frage: Haben sich die OECD-Staaten so selbstverständlich zu hochindustrialisierten Gesellschaften entwickelt, wie das heute unterstellt wird? Hätten nicht auch sie »Dritte Welt« werden könne, zumal in Europa so viel »Dritte Welt« bestand? Mit Hilfe vergleichender Analysen werden die Gründe für erfolgreiche und fehlgeschlagene Entwicklungen dargelegt und Typen von Entwicklungswegen beispielhaft nachgezeichnet. Europas Entwicklungsgeschichte ist die Geschichte einer kleinen Zahl von Gesellschaften, die allmählich die Weltwirtschaft zu beherrschen lernten. Es ist auch die Geschichte vieler Gesellschaften, die während dieses Vorgangs zu Peripherien wurden. Europas Entwicklungsgeschichte ist schließlich die Geschichte des Kapitalismus, seiner bahnbrechenden Rolle bei der Freisetzung von Produktivkräften, aber auch der von ihm mitverursachten Entwicklungsblockaden. Sie in den zu Peripherien abgesunkenen Gesellschaften zu überwinden, ist bis heute die Funktion von Sozialismus gewesen. Nicht jenseits der Fülle des Kapitalismus kam er entwicklungspolitisch zum Durchbruch, sondern dort, wo Versuche einer nachholenden Entwicklung unter marktwirtschaftlichen Spielregeln aussichtslos waren. Aufgrund dieser entwicklungsgeschichtlichen Überlegungen wird die Frage diskutiert, in welchem Sinne es vertretbar ist, in der Entwicklungsdiskussion eurozentrisch zu denken. Der Titel des Buches wurde deshalb bewußt ohne Fragezeichen gewählt. Eine Kontinuität besteht zwischen diesem Band und den in der edition suhrkamp erschienenen Studien Weltwirtschaftsordnung und Entwicklungspolitik. Plädoyer für Dissoziation. (es856)

Gender-based violence (GBV) in travel and tourism is embedded within wider social structures of gender inequalities and discrimination. Even though it is pertinent to study GBV in all its forms, this book focuses on the multiple and interconnected manifestations of violence that women/girls encounter in tourism consumption and production (physical, sexual, emotional or socio-economic), while seeking to open the debate on violence against sexual minorities (LGBT) and discussing men/boys as victims and perpetrators of GBV. By engaging in a critical exploration of the theoretical landscape of GBV and case studies on GBV and sexual harassment, the book adopts a multidisciplinary perspective drawing on feminist, intersectional and post-colonial frameworks, bringing together contributions from academics and practitioners across the globe.
