Book Description
"What is Umbro ? Umbro is the human's longing of cosmos, the desire to get out of time. The possibility of Immortality. " press review, Iris Onica Umbro is a fantasy Novel, but truly is a metaphor for the cosmic Consciousness of the New Human and the layers of perception we live in, which wants to be turned to a film on the big screens on 14th of December 2014, done as a film project in 2010 for NYU Tisch Asia. The action revolves around Umbro trying to build a pair of wings made out of Light - to escape time and the cursed forest - for that journeying to make a potion out of three tones: Green, Red, Blue. May it be a world with no start or end, this Flight of the faun? May it be a dream? Are You, the reader, a dream ?...Maybe it is I that dreams you now, and you are dreamt in your own life... In strange faces, the human's soul portrays not once, but countless times the euphoria of his immortal soul, looking for the tones of music in an eternal world, where Flight is only a moment, because time does not exist, and the fingers touch a celestial piano, that plays the music of life, and the key pressed infinitely is the moment of a soul's life, is the eternal god within each of us, is the moment when the inner eye, in the dew of questions sees that within him everything is, and everything becomes him. {...} What would it be then the faun's solitude, that endless wood ?....

Hub-and-Spoke Cartels
Author: Luke Garrod
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 026236722X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 303
Book Description
The first comprehensive economic and legal analysis of hub-and-spoke cartels, with detailed case studies. A cartel forms when competitors conspire to limit competition through coordinated actions. Most cartels are composed exclusively of firms that would otherwise be in competition, but in a hub-and-spoke cartel, those competitors (“spokes”) conspire with the assistance of an upstream supplier or a downstream buyer (“hub”). This book provides the first comprehensive economic and legal analysis of hub-and-spoke cartels, explaining their formation and how they operate to create and sustain a collusive environment. Sixteen detailed case studies, including cases brought against toy manufacturer Hasbro and the Apple ebook case, illustrate the economic framework and legal strategies discussed. The authors identify three types of hub-and-spoke cartels: when an upstream firm facilitates downstream firms to coordinate on higher prices; when a downstream intermediary facilitates upstream suppliers to coordinate on higher prices; and when a downstream firm facilitates upstream suppliers to exclude a downstream rival. They devote a chapter to each type, discussing the formation, coordination, enforcement, efficacy, and prosecution of these cartels, and consider general lessons that can be drawn from the case studies. Finally, they present strategies for prosecuting hub-and-spoke collusion. The book is written to be accessible to both economists and lawyers, and is intended for both scholars and practitioners.

Kit: Fashioning the Sporting Body
Author: Jean Williams
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317413954
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
This is the first edited collection of its kind to analyse the distinct but overlapping topics of dress, costume, sport and leisure history. For researchers of bodily adornment and movement, sport and costume history are both primarily concerned with industrial practice and embodied experience. The ways in which bodies are adorned, embellished and clothed (or revealed) highlights the hybrid nature of dress history, encompassing as it does the everyday clothing solutions of the mass of people and the unusual or more ceremonial aspects of costume, as well as elite high fashion. Although this is as yet an under-researched area, there are an increasing number of fashion and clothing undergraduate and postgraduate courses that specialise in sport and leisurewear. This publication is intended to give an introductory overview of the historical and contemporary issues as it does for the growing number of sport marketing and sports studies courses concerned with dress, costume history and branding. This book was published as a special issue of Sport in History.
