Trade paperback. Zustand: Good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. 123, [1] pages. Map. Illustrations (color). Endnotes. Cover has some wear and soiling. Amrit Singh directs the project on national security and counterterrorism at the Open Society Justice Initiative. She conducts strategic litigation, documentation and advocacy on a range of human rights issues relating to counterterrorism measures such as counter-radicalization, freedom of expression restraints, drone killings, rendition, torture, and arbitrary detention. Among other cases, she successfully litigated al Nashiri v. Poland, a challenge before the European Court of Human Rights to Poland's hosting of a secret CIA prison. She is the author of Eroding Trust, Death by Drone, and Globalizing Torture, and the co-author of Administration of Torture. Previously, Singh was a staff attorney at the American Civil Liberties Union, where she litigated immigrants' rights and national security cases. She also served as a law clerk to Judge Cedarbaum of the U.S. District Court in New York. She is a graduate of the Yale Law School, Oxford University, and Cambridge University. This report was jointly produced by the Mwatana Organization for Human Rights, a Yemeni non-governmental organization, and the Open Society Justice Initiative. It documents the civilian harm caused by nine U.S. airstrikes, all apparently conducted by unmanned aerial vehicles (drones), in Yemen between May 2012 and April 2014. Field research for this report was conducted from May 2013 until April 2014, at the sites where each airstrike took place, in al-Baidha, Sana'a, al-Jawf, Hadramout, Marib, and Dhamar Governorates. The field research included 96 interviews with injured survivors and eyewitnesses of U.S. airstrikes, relatives of individuals killed or injured in these attacks, local community leaders, doctors and hospital staff who were involved in the treatment of victims, and Yemeni government officials. The research also gathered corroborating information, including written government statements issued in relation to civilian victims, photographs and videos of the aftermath of the drone strikes, and medical records. An independent munitions expert provided additional analysis. Research for this report was conducted in a context of pervasive U.S. and Yemeni government secrecy concerning the airstrikes, the tense security situation in many of the regions where the strikes took place, as well as the fear of reprisals that local communities experience in speaking openly about the strikes. In some instances, members of communities affected by the strikes refused to be interviewed. In other instances, security concerns prevented access to the sites of airstrikes. Interviews for this report were conducted in Arabic and translated into English. The interviewees were informed of the purpose of the interview and asked if they consented to their identities being disclosed in this report. The report does not provide identifying information for interviewees who were not comfortable with being identified. No financial or other incentives were offered to the interviewees for speaking with the researchers. This report does not purport to provide a comprehensive account of all civilian harm associated with all U.S. airstrikes in Yemen. Especially in light of the U.S. and Yemeni government secrecy associated with these strikes, it would be virtually impossible to conduct such a comprehensive study with sufficient accuracy. Rather, the aim of this report is to document the civilian harm caused by nine specific U.S. airstrikes. Specifically, this report seeks to determine the extent of this harm and when it occurred in relation to President Obama's Defense University (NDU) speech outlining the policy guidelines applied to U.S. targeted killings. The nine incidents described in this report were selected after research confirmed initial accounts of civilian harm from these strikes. In a number of cases, our findings of civilian casualties were confirmed by the statements and/or actions of.
Hardcover. Zustand: New. Muses carried forward of Journies in Continuation continue and carry on with Voices and Mute. Much unknown vagaries voices coursed through exploring myriad multitude emotes stretching Religious overtures philosophical at times exploring equations of Time and Thought, exploring tiffs of mind and emotions. Writing nature its serene mystical magical splendored, anguishes of fallen unsung sung Memories immortalized in Stone. Ironic never to be erased, tears ebb salutations encased in Heart and Lead. Words its magical wizardry woven into ink and paper, whizzing all over. Aim to explore depths of Dictionary Thesaurus. Buddhist Saint captures the unknown unspoken bringing forth depths unlettered to words simplistic hard wired blunt and real. Awakenings f a Young man reality and make believes run wild and imaginatively. Buddhist Saint words pierce and bring forth visions clear dispelling despair clouds with zest to go on after every dark chapter. Alabaster encloses the tumultuous times in the past seven hundred or so sun rises and sunsets. Sarcastic sardonic with excerpts of Tales of Heroes and Comic Book characters,Heroes, buffoons all cooked up to lace the traumatic times with subtle humour. Attempts also to focus on the divides of Colour associations. How society has moved on from shades of White and Black to a Rainbow of divide. Capturing the Unconcerned and the Suffrage suffered by Multitude, still retaining reverence, Complex ridiculous bordering on elevation to God. Pain of loss of a partner exacerbated by Societal stigmas painted in simple words. Crying over spilt milk of a fight which caught the imagination of a Nation for a greater quarter of an Year.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. The Magical Mara is the story of a family s safari in this wilderness, spanning 23 days, in three different parts of the Masai Mara and co-authored by three generations ranging from the ages of 66 to 6! In 23 days, this safariholic family witnessed and photographed life in the African bush from seven distinct perspectives. Be it big cats mating, their family life, stalking, hunting, charging and fighting; and, of course, the other fascinating fauna and avifauna that inhabit the Mara. There is something about safari life that makes you forget all your sorrows and feel as if you had drunk half a bottle of champagne - bubbling over with heartfelt gratitude for being alive. - Baroness Karen von Blixen.

Quality Seed: A Mega Factor in Enhancing Crop Productivity/J.S. Chauhan, A.L. Singh, S. Rajendra Prasad and Satinder Pal. Index. Global food demand is expected to be doubled by 2050, while production, environment and natural resources are shrinking and deteriorating. Inadequate attention to agriculture across the larger part of the world has led to steep rise in food prices and increased food riots pushing about 100 million more people into poverty. More than one billion people already are earning less than one dollar a day, and 842 million are suffering from hunger. Majority of them live in rural areas, and are largely dependent on agriculture. The climate change and diversion of arable lands to urbanization and industrialization has further aggravated food crisis. On the other hand, with recent technologies, there is tremendous development in agriculture and productivity during the last two decades and it is hoped that with ingenuity, determination and innovative partnerships among everyone, we can meet the food needs of 9 billion people by 2050 without harming our planet. Using tools and technologies that allow farmers to apply nutrients more precisely at lower cost, improved seeds with less water and nutrients, new fertilizers, site specific nutrient management, effectively placed wetlands and buffers, and cover crops, we can meet the intertwined needs of environmental sustainability and rising food demand. However, all these informations are scattered and need to be compiled and circulated widely. This series on "Recent Advances in Crop Physiology" is an effort in this direction, which will act as a reference for directly implementing the technologies and to help the researchers for planning their future research.
