The Case of the Welched Reward
Reward takes the reader behind the scenes of an international manhunt and an unusual lawsuit that rattled law enforcement in three countries. The story is born out of a real-life spy thriller--the flight of Peru's notorious National Security chief, Vladimiro Montesinos, who was accused of many crimes. The lawsuit, Jose Guevara v. Republic of Peru, was brought by a Venezuelan spy who claimed Peru's $5 million reward after he was caught in an FBI sting attempting to extort a Miami banker to release Montesinos' dirty money. The next day, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez triumphantly announced Montesinos' capture and extradition to Peru. What happened in Guevara's jail cell is an untold story th...
Advances in Design Engineering III
This book contains the papers presented at the XXXI International Congress INGEGRAF “Graphic Expression: reunion, reflection, representation,” held on June 29–30 and July 1, 2021, in Málaga, Spain. It reports on cutting-edge topics in product design and manufacturing, such as industrial methods for integrated product and process design, innovative design and computer-aided design. Further topics covered include virtual simulation and reverse engineering, additive manufacturing, product manufacturing,engineering methods in medicine and education, representation techniques and nautical, engineering and construction, aeronautics and aerospace design and modeling. The book is divided into six main sections, reflecting the focus and primary themes of the conference. The contributions presented here provide researchers, engineers and experts in a range of industrial engineering subfields with extensive information to support their daily work; but also they are intended to stimulate new research directions, advanced applications of the methods discussed and future interdisciplinary collaborations.
Large-scale dam removal and ecosystem restoration
Rivers are vital ecosystems that support aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity and several ecosystem services, including food, water, culture, and recreation. After centuries of building dams on rivers across the world, dam removal projects are now on the rise due to obsolescence, reservoir sedimentation, insufficient return on investment, or river restoration and conservation priorities. Most dam removal projects have focused on smaller structures (< 10 m in structural height), but larger structures have also started to be removed in increasing numbers as practitioners, river managers, conservationists, and the public have gained more experience with the practice. Recent estimates suggest th...
Manual sobre las últimas tendencias prácticas para evaluar y prescribir el entrenamiento Físico-Deportivo
El presente manual se desarrolla como parte de la Convocatoria de Creación de Grupos Docentes para la Creación de Materiales Didácticos de la Universidad de Almería correspondiente a los años naturales 2023 y 2024. El objetivo es mejorar la actividad docente y la calidad del aprendizaje del alumnado a través de un manual que facilite el seguimiento de las clases prácticas en determinadas asignaturas del Grado en Ciencias de la Actividad Física y el Deporte, como Fundamentos del Acondicionamiento Físico o Entrenamiento Físico-Deportivo. En concreto, el manual aborda las últimas tendencias prácticas en la evaluación y prescripción del entrenamiento físico-deportivo. Por un lado, los procedimientos para evaluar el rendimiento humano son de especial relevancia para los profesionales de la actividad física y del deporte puesto que, no solo ofrecen información para prescribir mejor los entrenamientos, sino también para monitorizar los cambios que se producen tras una sesión o programa de ejercicio.
Hormones and Neural Aging: Lessons From Experimental Models
How can we slow the signs of aging? Although aging is a natural process for all living things, doing so without dramatic alterations of health and well-being is an important aim in health care. Understanding this gradual but continuous process is fundamental in order to avoid, or at least improve, aging associated illnesses and conditions. The reviews and studies compiled here address various aspects of the relationship between systemic and central changes during the aging process, with hormonal signals as the important liaison.
