We don’t often see players who prefer to play for the love of the game and not the fame—players like the 28-year-old Kawhi Leonard. Earlier this year, the quiet Kawhi led the Toronto Raptors in their most successful season yet, when they won the NBA (National Basketball Association) championship for the first time in history. Kawhi joined the team in 2018 and was also named the NBA Finals MVP (Most Valuable Player) for the second time in his career. The first time he won the award was in 2014, when he helped the San Antonio Spurs to their fifth championship. He hopes to do the same for his new team, the Los Angeles Clippers. With his extremely large hands and ability to score from anywhere on the court, the “Klaw” continues to rise through the ranks of the NBA. He has already gone from a skilled rookie to an All-Star and MVP, yet he remains one of the most humble players in the game. 沉默的王者: 「可愛」.雷納德 說到職業籃球界,大多數球員都樂於受到注目,在眾人面前炫耀自己的名聲和財富。我們不常看到打球是因為比較熱愛籃球比賽而不是名氣的球員——就像這位二十八歲的科懷.雷納德(常被暱稱為「可愛」)的球員。 今年早些時候,安靜不多話的「可愛」帶領多倫多暴龍隊進入他們到目前為止最成功的賽季,這是他們史上第一次贏得美國職業籃球聯賽總冠軍。「可愛」在二○一八年加入暴龍隊,並且在職業生涯中第二次被提名為美國職籃總冠軍賽的最有價值球員。他第一次獲選是在二○一四年,當時他幫助聖安東尼奧馬刺隊拿下該隊第五座冠軍。他希望能為他的新球隊洛杉磯快艇隊做同樣的事。 由於他的手掌非常大並且能從場上任何一個位置得分,「大手」在美國職籃的地位持續攀升。他已經從一個球技嫺熟的新秀變成了全明星賽球員和最有價值球員,然而他仍是籃球場上最謙遜的球員之一。 Born in California, Kawhi is the youngest of five children. His father, whom he was very close to, owned a car wash where Kawhi used to help out whenever he had time. But tragedy struck the family in 2008, when Kawhi’s father was shot and killed. This motivated Kawhi to cherish his time and give his best on the court, saying “I try to play as hard as I can each night. That’s what my father wanted me to do.” Kawhi stands out from many other NBA stars in part because he is very down-to-earth. For instance, after he signed a US$94 million contract, he continued to drive the same beat-up SUV that he had owned since high school. He also prefers to keep his private life private and does not even have a social media account. In Kawhi’s case, he is living proof that with enough hard work and persistence, greatness can be achieved. His humble attitude and instincts on the court have served him well on the road to success, making him one of the best role models in the NBA today. 「可愛」出生於加州,是五個孩子中最年幼的一個。他的父親(他與父親非常親)經營了一家洗車行,每當「可愛」有時間,就會去那裡幫忙。但二○○八年家中遭逢變故,「可愛」的父親遭到槍殺身亡。這激勵「可愛」要珍惜時間,並在球場上全力以赴,他說道:「我每晚都盡全力打球。那是我父親希望我做的。」 「可愛」從其他許多的美國職籃球星中脫穎而出,部分原因在於他實事求是。例如,在他簽下九千四百萬美元的合約後,他還繼續開著同台從高中就有的老爺休旅車。他也寧願維持低調的私人生活,甚至沒有社群媒體帳號。 就「可愛」而言,他是只要夠努力和堅持,就可以達到偉大成就的一個活生生的例子。他在球場上謙遜的態度和天分在他通往成功的路上發揮了很大的作用,使他成為現今美國職籃的最佳模範之一。

Coastal State Jurisdiction Over Living Resources in the Exclusive Economic Zone
Author: Camille Goodman
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192896849
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 433
Book Description
Under the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, coastal States have sovereign rights to explore, exploit, conserve, and manage the living resources of the 200 nautical mile exclusive economic zone (EEZ). However, 40 years after the adoption of the Convention, there is still a great deal of uncertainty about the nature and extent of these sovereign rights. Coastal State Jurisdiction over Living Resources in the Exclusive Economic Zone examines the ways in which coastal States can exercise authority on the basis of their sovereign rights over living resources in the EEZ. Dr Camille Goodman explores the key concepts of 'fishing' and 'fishing related activities' to establish what vessels and which activities can be regulated by coastal States, canvasses the criteria and conditions that coastal States can apply as part of regulating foreign access to their resources, and considers the regulation of unlicensed foreign fishing vessels in transit through the EEZ. Goodman also examines how such regulations can be enforced within the EEZ and the circumstances under which enforcement can take place beyond the EEZ following hot pursuit. A review and analysis of the practice of 145 States identifies the contemporary extent of coastal State jurisdiction over living resources in the EEZ and offers a unique, fresh perspective on the underlying and enduring nature of that jurisdiction. Underpinned by a rigorous examination of the Convention, jurisprudence, and literature, as well as being supported by carefully documented State practice, Coastal State Jurisdiction over Living Resources in the Exclusive Economic Zone proposes a more predictable framework within which to resolve jurisdictional challenges in the EEZ.

ISBN: 1682477517
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 440
Book Description
It is convenient to think that bad guys are drumming up money for their activities far away and in shady back alleys, but the violent non-state actors (VNSAs) of the world are hiding in plain sight. They peddle knockoff sneakers, pass the hat at ethnic festivals, take a cut of untaxed booze sales, swindle senior citizens with bogus phone calls about needing bail in Mexico, and run money through mainstream banks to buy up rental properties (just to name a few). On a grand scale, their behavior erodes rule of law, creates moral injuries from corruption, and emboldens bad actors to steal and back violent tactics with impunity. Blood Money analyzes the ways in which VNSAs find money for their operations and sustainment, from controlling a valuable commodity to harnessing the grievances of a networked diaspora, and it looks at the channels through which they can flip the positives of globalization into flat, fast, and frictionless movement of people, funds, and materials needed to terrorize and coerce their opponents. Author Margaret Sankey highlights the mundane and everyday nature of these tactics, occurring under our noses online, in legitimate marketplaces, and with the aegis of intelligence services and national governments. While reforms attempt to curtail these options, their utility and efficacy as tools of finance have proved inadequate for sovereign states. VNSAs' defiance of rules and their capable adaptation and innovation make them extremely difficult to pin down or prosecute. Many security publications stress legislation and enforcement or frame illicit finance as a military or police problem. With Blood Money, Sankey points out the many ways VNSAs evade law enforcement, and she offers options for involving consumers and activists in exercising agency and choices in how they apply their money and where it goes. Blood Money also provides context for whole-of-government approaches to attacking underlying supports for illicit financing channels. How these groups finance themselves is key to understanding how they function and what actions might be taken to derail their plans or dismantle their structure.

The Joy of the Gospel
Author: Pope Francis
Publisher: Image
ISBN: 0553419544
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage

Psychology of Intelligence Analysis
Author: Richards J Heuer
Publisher: Pickle Partners Publishing
ISBN: 1839743050
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
In this seminal work, published by the C.I.A. itself, produced by Intelligence veteran Richards Heuer discusses three pivotal points. First, human minds are ill-equipped ("poorly wired") to cope effectively with both inherent and induced uncertainty. Second, increased knowledge of our inherent biases tends to be of little assistance to the analyst. And lastly, tools and techniques that apply higher levels of critical thinking can substantially improve analysis on complex problems.

Parasitic Diseases
Author: Dickson D. Despommier
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461224764
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
Worldwide, the numbers of people suffering and dying from parasitic diseases are overwhelming, with more than 100 million cases and 1 million deaths each year from malaria alone. Despite the magnitude of the problem and the importance of the parasites that cause opportunistic infections among persons with HIV/AIDS, medical schools in the United States, Canada, and other developed countries consistently reduce the amount of time spent on parasitic diseases in the curricu lum. As a result most medical students receive limited information about these diseases, and are inadequately prepared to diagnose or treat them as physicians. This problem is too large to be resolved within the time available for parasitology in the medical school curriculum; at most, students can be acquainted with the salient features of the medically important parasites. Likewise, the traditional isolation of parasitology from the rest of the curriculum (consistent with its exclu sion from most microbiology texts) is another unresolved problem. In my opinion, this is why most physicians are unable to think about the differential diagnosis of parasitic diseases in the same way that they routinely balance the probabilities of malignancy, cardiovascular, renal, and pulmonary disease vs other infectious diseases. To resolve these problems, relevant paradigms from parasitology must be used in the teaching of cell biology, molecular biology, genetics, and immu nology.
