Book Description
After leading the entire National Hockey League for 3 1/2 exciting months, the 1969-70 New York Rangers of coach and general manager Emile Francis were faced with potential disaster entering the final day of the regular season at Madison Square Garden. In fifth place, trailing the legendary Montreal Canadiens --the two-time defending Stanley Cup champions-- by two points for the fourth and final playoff berth in the East Division, the mountain the Rangers had to climb seemingly required a hockey miracle. Facing the Detroit Red Wings who just 18 hours earlier had thrashed them, 6-2, and clinched a playoff berth of their own, the Rangers not only had to win the game . . . they would have to score a minimum of FIVE goals in order to tie Montreal with 92 points -- and more importantly, in Goals Scored for the season. Montreal could scuttle all that with a win or tie that night against the Chicago Black Hawks at Chicago Stadium. They would finish in fourth place and eliminate the Rangers. Should Montreal lose, however, they could still finish in fourth place by scoring more goals for the season than the Rangers. In a game for the ages that included 11 participants now enshrined in the Hockey Hall of Fame, at 2:05 p.m., on April 5, 1970, the Rangers' fate would be decided. The question of the moment prior to referee Bill Friday dropping the puck for the opening faceoff against Detroit, led by their ageless superstar Gordie Howe, was simple: Could Francis's Rangers defeat Detroit, score at least FIVE goals, if not more, and thereupon shift the pressure to Montreal? Before a nationwide "NHL Game of the Week" television audience, the Rangers would now have one final chance to prove what they were, or were not, made of. The result of the wildest regular-season finish during the NHL's first century, as well as the most famous regular season game in the Rangers' nine-plus decades, would be found on the front page of the following morning's New York Times.

Moving from the Millennium to the Sustainable Development Goals
Author: Sefa Awaworyi Churchill
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811515565
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 375
Book Description
This book presents a collection of chapters that examine various dimensions of development. Between 2000 and 2015, the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) remained the overarching development framework that governed the international development community. After a decade and half of commitment to the MDGs, the framework is widely considered a success, although progress reported across countries has been uneven. The new overarching international development framework may not be successful or present the best opportunities for the desired global change without a better understanding of factors that contributed the most or the least to the attainment of the MDGs. The chapters presented in this book provide discussions and insights into understanding these factors better. They represent a collection of scholarship that address some of the important questions in international development. They adopt a wide range of research methods to provide insight into what works, and what does not, in promoting the stipulated development goals.

Atomic Habits
Author: James Clear
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0735211299
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
The #1 New York Times bestseller. Over 20 million copies sold! Translated into 60+ languages! Tiny Changes, Remarkable Results No matter your goals, Atomic Habits offers a proven framework for improving--every day. James Clear, one of the world's leading experts on habit formation, reveals practical strategies that will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results. If you're having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn't you. The problem is your system. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don't want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change. You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Here, you'll get a proven system that can take you to new heights. Clear is known for his ability to distill complex topics into simple behaviors that can be easily applied to daily life and work. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible. Along the way, readers will be inspired and entertained with true stories from Olympic gold medalists, award-winning artists, business leaders, life-saving physicians, and star comedians who have used the science of small habits to master their craft and vault to the top of their field. Learn how to: make time for new habits (even when life gets crazy); overcome a lack of motivation and willpower; design your environment to make success easier; get back on track when you fall off course; ...and much more. Atomic Habits will reshape the way you think about progress and success, and give you the tools and strategies you need to transform your habits--whether you are a team looking to win a championship, an organization hoping to redefine an industry, or simply an individual who wishes to quit smoking, lose weight, reduce stress, or achieve any other goal.
