Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, born in 1959, the year Hawai'i became a state, rose to unrivaled celebrity on the strength of his one-in-a-million voice and a four-string 'ukulele. His phenomenal hit "Over the Rainbow" propelled his Facing Future album to Platinum status. His voice has been heard around the world in blockbuster films, television shows, and advertisements. IZ: Voice of the People is a portrait in words and over 200 photos of the man behind the music--his childhood, his early year with the Mā kaha Sons of Ni'ihau, his solo career, his personal struggles and successes. It is about fame, but it is also about triumph over adversity and loss; about standing up for the people of Hawai'i at a critical time in their history and inspiring them to demand justice and sovereignty; and about the music, people, and events that shaped Israel and his career.

NE KADARİZ BIRAKIRSANIZ O KADAR VAZGEÇİLMEZ OLURSUNUZ. Kusursuz bir bütün için harikulade parçalar gerekir. Tıkır tıkır işleyen bir sistem ancak böyle yürür, bir kovandaki arıları ya da devasa bir karınca yuvasını düşünün. İlişkiler de böyledir, hiçbir şey tek başına tüm ilişkiyi ayakta tutmaya yetmez. Fırtınaya yakalanmış bir tekneye yelkenler tek başına yardımcı olamaz, sağlam bir motor, belki devreye girmesi gereken kürekler ve güvertede teknenin seyrini sağlayan hünerli birkaç insan lazımdır. Bu bir keşif yolculuğu olacak, yelkenlerinizi ayarlayın, birazdan rüzgâr onları şişirecek ve gitmeye korktuğunuz yabancı kıyılara sürükleneceksiniz. Korkmayın, bu yabancı topraklar aslında şimdiye dek ayak basmadığınız kendi kıyılarınız olacak... Uzman Psikolog Esra Ezmeci bu kez cinsellikten çapalamaya, eril ve dişil enerjilerden iletişime iz bırakmanın ve vazgeçilmez olmanın yollarını anlatıyor. İlişkilerde cesaretin ve özgür doğanızı hissettirebilmenin fark yaratan, devrimci yollarını incelikle tarif ediyor. Tarih nice korkak insan hikâyesiyle doludur ama biz hiçbirinin adını duymamışızdır. Cesur olduğunuz kadar iz bırakırsınız ve iz bıraktığınız kadar yaşarsınız...

The Atlas of typical food from Montenegro seeks to promote not only the high quality traditional products presented in this volume, but also to raise awareness of the importance of preserving and protecting Montenegrin culinary heritage, local traditions and the rural economy. This Atlas builds on the inventory of origin-linked products and traditional dishes in Montenegro that could be registered as PDOs, PGIs and TSGs. Origin-linked products reflect the intersection of nature and culture - the accumulation of local knowledge and traditions passed down over the years in a specific geographical location. By adopting quality schemes such as protected denomination of origin (PDO) and protected geographical indication (PGI), in line with the European Union, quality-oriented producers can differentiate and protect their products on the market, ultimately preserving and promoting their unique food heritage.

With the award winning 187 Iz An Art our main goal was to create a story that provides the reader an extraordinary true glimpse of why youths in urban environments turn to a life of street activities. So 187 Iz An Art mirrors the reality of many urban environments without glorifying any of the events which typically take place in such a setting. We achieved this by starting the characters out at an early age to show what made them get immersed into the streets. So whether a person agrees or not with the idea of drug dealing they understood why the characters in the novel lead that type of lifestyle.--Awards: 2009 Los Angeles Book Festival Award Winner, 2010 San Fracisco Book Festival Award Winner, 2010 New York Book Festival Award Winner.
