Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
“If Jane Austen had been allowed to write about sex, I'd like to think this is how she would have done it.”—Rebecca Makkai, author of The Hundred-Year House An audaciously entertaining look at love, marriage, and the beloved Bennet family from Pride and Prejudice, as you’ve never seen them before . . . It is a truth universally acknowledged that every man in possession of a wife must be in want of a son. 1785 was to be the most marvelous year of Marianne’s life, until an unfortunate turn of events left her in a compromised state and desperate for a husband to care—or rather cover—for her. Now, she is stuck in an undesirable marriage to Mr. Edward Bennet, a man desperate in his own way for a male heir. But as she is still carrying a smoldering desire for the handsome Colonel Miller, Mrs. Bennet must constantly find new, clever ways to avoid her husband’s lascivious advances until she is once again reunited with her dashing Colonel. Except that the best-laid plans of a woman in good standing can so often go awry, especially when her contrary husband has plans and desires of his own . . .

Book Description
1. GODAM – Fitri Hussin SINOPSIS : Sekumpulan saintis melayu, Lokman, Saifullah dan Amran berjaya mencipta satu cip canggih yang dapat memulihkan memori pesakit-pesakit alzheimer, trauma otak, trauma perang dan sebagainya. Kejayaan mereka itu mendapat liputan luas media tempatan dan luar negara. Mereka menjadi kebangaan melayu, Islam dan Malaysia. Tetapi kejayaan itu dimusnahkan oleh satu artikel yang disiarkan di sebuah blog konspirasi tempatan yang mendedahkan bahawa dana penyelidikan untuk mencipta cip itu adalah dari Nathan Rotchield, pindar kepada 13 keluarga yang menguasai dunia. Pendedahan itu menyebabkan Saifullah dan Amran dibunuh secara langsung di Facebook Live. Kes itu disiasat dan polis mendapati Lokman adalah suspek utama berdasarkan bukti-bukti yang diperolehi. Sejak itu Lokman menjadi buruan pihak berkuasa. Apa sebenarnya yang berlaku? Benarkah Lokman adalah pengganas seperti yang dituduh? Siapakah dalang di sebalik semua itu? Apakah tujuan dalang tersebut? 2. PANDORA – Sufi Abqari SINOPSIS : Ted telah menyelamatkan seorang pemuda daripada mati akibat dikebumikan. Pemuda itu telah ditusuk oleh sebuah chip yang terevolusi dengan virus merbahaya. Ekoran dari itu Ted dan Adam telah pergi ke Malaysia mencari seorang lelaki bernama Ungku Azizi. Disamping menjejak kembali chip paling merbahaya yang dipanggil Pandora. Pandora telah dicuri sebaik Ted kembali semula ke Amerika. Ekoran itu dia telah dituduh sebagai pengkhianat. Dalam masa yang sama untuk menyelamatkan nyawa Adam yang terancam akibat chip di dalam tubuhnya. Di Malaysia Ted dan Adam terpisah. Adam diseksa sebelum Zaiton iaitu perisik wanita datang untuk menyelamatkannya. Ketegangan berlaku apabila Ted tidak mahu Zaiton merawat Adam. Dia beranggapan nyawa Adam akan lebih terancam ekoran zaiton telah membunuh Jamal, salah seorang perisik musuh. Sepanjang pencarian pelbagai ketegangan wujud, termasuklah sifat syak wasangka di antara mereka. Pada mulanya Ungku Azizi dituduh sebagai penjahat dan merancang segalanya. Akhirnya penjahat sebenar dikesan. Ia adalah Adam yang telah merancang dan bertindak untuk mendapatkan Pandora bagi memusnahkan populasi dunia. Dengan tujuan mewujudkan order baru dunia. 3. MANIPULASI – Arifful Baqi SINOPSIS : Cip Utama, sejenis komponen yang mampu mengaktifkan Program Penggerak Pembasmian yang bertujuan untuk melenyapkan tamadun manusia. Wan Iskendar diburu oleh Organisasi Create dan sebuah android yang saling berebut hendak mendapatkan Cip Utama tersebut. Lebih mengejutkan, identiti sebenar Wan Iskendar ialah ‘Redzuan’ yang dikatakan sebagai pengkhianat dalam Organisasi Create. Bersama dengan Diana, Wan Iskendar cuba melarikan diri daripada diburu oleh musuh-musuhnya. Kekejaman android bernama Shaha telah berjaya meletupkan seluruh pangkalan Organisasi Create. Semua anggota Create maut terkorban dalam nahas yang berlaku. Sebaik Cip Utama berjaya dirampas Shaha, android itu berasa berang. Sebenarnya cip yang diperoleh itu adalah cip palsu. Lantas Shaha mahu membunuh Wan Iskendar kerana berani mempermainkannya. Detik perhitungan berlaku, Diana mendedahkan dirinya yang sebenar. Perempuan itu juga merupakan sebuah android yang dihantar untuk melindungi Wan Iskendar. Dia meletupkan diri sendiri untuk turut menghancurkan jasad Shaha. 20 jam kemudian, Wan Iskendar bertemu dengan seorang lelaki yang berwajah mirip dengannya. Sebenarnya, lelaki itu ialah ‘Redzuan’ yang sebenar. Dia memanipulasi semua pihak dan merangka rancangan supaya semua orang percaya bahawa Wan Iskendar ialah ‘Redzuan’ dan membuatkan Wan Iskendar diburu oleh musuh-musuhnya, sedangkan Redzuan yang sebenar berada di tempat lain. Setahun kemudian, Wan Iskendar memilih untuk menjadi ahli perisikan. Tugasnya adalah menangkap individu terakhir yang masih melakukan kejahatan atas nama Create.

Uncovering CIP Deviations in Emerging Markets: Distinctions, Determinants and Disconnect
Author: Mr. Eugenio M Cerutti
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 49
Book Description
We provide a systematic empirical treatment of short-term Covered Interest Parity (CIP) deviations for a large set of emerging market (EM) currencies. EM CIP deviations have much larger volatilities than most G10 currencies and move in an opposite direction during global risk-off episodes. While off-shore EM CIP deviations are sensitive to changes in FX dealers’ risk-bearing capacities and global risk aversion, on-shore EM CIP deviations are largely unresponsive in segmented FX markets. Moreover, the sensitivity of offshore EM CIP deviations to global risk factors for currencies with segmented FX markets is stronger compared to their counterparts with integrated FX markets. We find weak evidence of country default risk affecting EM CIP deviations after accounting for global factors.

The Munich Project CIP
Author:
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9783540187790
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 536
Book Description
This book is the second of two volumes that present the main results which emerged from the project CIP - Computer-Aided, Intuition-Guided Programming - at the Technical University of Munich. Its central theme is program development by transformation, a methodology which is becoming more and more important. Whereas Volume I contains the description and formal specification of a wide spectrum language CIP-L particularly tailored to the needs of transformational programming, Volume II serves a double purpose: First, it describes a system, called CIP-S, that is to assist a programmer in the method of transformational programming. Second, it gives a non-toy example for this very method, since it contains a formal specification of the system core and transformational developments for the more interesting system routines. Based on a formal calculus of program transformations, the informal requirements for the system are stated. Then the system core is formally specified using the algebraic data types and the pre-algorithmic logical constructs of the wide spectrum language CIP-L. It is demonstrated how executable, procedural level programs can be developed from this specification according to formal rules. The extensive collection of these rules is also contained in the book; it can be used as the basis for further developments using this method. Since the system has been designed in such a way that it is parameterized with the concrete programming language to be transformed, the book also contains a guide how to actualize this parameter; the proceeding is exemplified with a small subset of CIP-L.
