 D Dhebar, "The Mechanics of 3G Cryptography" English | ISBN: 1445701456 | 2009 | 130 pages | EPUB | 8 MB There is a plethora of books available on 3G mobile technology in its entirety, but when it comes to the actual mechanics of the cryptographic algorithms involved the information is typically vague. If your interest is in the precise workings of 3G cryptography then this book is for you; it is perhaps the only book of its kind. Every single original algorithm of 3G User Equipment (3G mobile phones) is explained in explicit detail, and each is coupled with a thorough example. The algorithms include the standardised functions, UEA1 for confidentiality and UIA1 for integrity, along with Kasumi, the corresponding kernel algorithm, and also all the non-standardised algorithms for authentication and key agreement, along with their corresponding kernel algorithm, Rijndael (A.E.S.). Contained here is all the information required to literally pencil-and-paper all the cryptographic inputs to outputs of 3G mobiles...patience not included!  The Making of an African Working Class: Politics, Law, and Cultural Protest in the Manual Workers Union of Botswana By Pnina Werbner 2014 | 340 Pages | ISBN: 0745334962 | EPUB | 3 MB The Making of an African Working Class explores the formation of working class identity among low-paid African workers. In arguing for a radical public anthropology of worker identity, the book seeks to analyse the cultural, legal, ideological and experiential dimensions of labour activism often neglected in other labour studies.Pnina Werbner shows that by fusing cosmopolitan and local popular cultural forms of protest, unionists have created a distinctive, vernacular way of being a worker in Botswana: one that does not deny workers' roots at home, in the countryside, while being cognisant of a wider world of cosmopolitan labour rights. The assertion of working class dignity, honour and respect, Pnina argues, is a powerful motivating force for manual workers.Against legal-sceptical approaches, The Making of an African Working Class argues that in challenging the government - their employer - in court, manual workers' protests and mobilisation are deeply embedded in ethics, social justice and the law.

Peter Heehs, "The Lives of Sri Aurobindo" English | 2008 | ISBN: 0231140983 | PDF | pages: 529 | 17.1 mb Since his death in 1950, Sri Aurobindo Ghose has been known primarily as a yogi and a philosopher of spiritual evolution who was nominated for the Nobel Prize in peace and literature. But the years Aurobindo spent in yogic retirement were preceded by nearly four decades of rich public and intellectual work. Biographers usually focus solely on Aurobindo's life as a politician or sage, but he was also a scholar, a revolutionary, a poet, a philosopher, a social and cultural theorist, and the inspiration for an experiment in communal living.  Tony Reinke, "The Joy Project: A True Story of Inescapable Happiness" English | 2015 | pages: 148 | ISBN: 0991277651 | EPUB | 0,8 mb Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We think of our chase for joy as a fundamental right - and it's no surprise. By nature we are pleasure-seekers, though chronically unsuccessful at finding the type of joy that will endure for more than a passing moment. But what if long-lasting joy isn't found at all? What if the deepest and most durable happiness breaks into our lives, overcomes our boredom, and ultimately finds us? What if true joy is out of our reach, but reaches for us? (Download this book in three digital formats, free of charge, at desiringGod.org.) "At the end of a restless day we look to the self-help gurus, but they can only give us magnifying glasses to gaze more deeply into our own navels. Lift your sights through The Joy Project, and rejoice to read that joy is actually coming for you." -Gloria Furman, author, Glimpses of Grace and Treasuring Christ When Your Hands Are Full "Our eyes of flesh seek joy in the wrong places, define it with a bankrupt vocabulary, and settle for it using mistaken formulas. Because we don't know what to do but try harder and hide our shame, we get stuck and sick, depressed and despondent. This dehumanizes us, discourages us, and defeats us. But there is hope! The Joy Project is applied reformed theology at its best." -Rosaria Butterfield, author, Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert  David Berkman, "The Jazz Harmony Book" English | 2013 | pages: 215 | ISBN: 1883217792 | PDF | 5,0 mb THE JAZZ HARMONY BOOK by NY pianist David Berkman is a classic, essential text on the subject.

G. da Costa (editor) 2010 | 417 Pages | ISBN: 0904180158 | PDF | 27 MB Jerónimo Lobo was the last survivor of the small band of Jesuit Fathers who tried, with a measure of success, to reconcile Ethiopia to the Church of Rome. The narrative begins with Lobo's ordination in 1621 and ends seventeen years later. Chosen to serve in India he reached that country after being involved with a naval fight against the Dutch and English off Mozambique. Selected for the Ethiopian mission, he made a remarkable attempt to reach the country from the Somali coast, and eventually made his way to Bailul in the Red Sea and across the Danakil desert. He spent nine years in Ethiopia, principally in the north and in the neighbourhood of the source of the Blue Nile. Exiled when the Emperor restored the authority of the Ethiopian Church, he was handed over to the Turks at Massawa. After suffering much hardship and danger he regained India. Sent to Europe to advocate intervention on behalf of the Ethiopian Catholics, his ship was wrecked on the South African coast. The castaways built two boats, one of which succeeded in rounding the Cape and arriving at Luanda. Here Lobo embarked on a ship carrying slaves to the Spanish main which was captured by the Dutch. Lobo was marooned on an island but contrived to make his way to Cartagena and Havana and so to Europe. His diplomatic business took him to Madrid and Rome, but his plea for armed assistance for the Ethiopian Catholics did not succeed.  The Impatient Woman's Guide to Getting Pregnant By Jean M.
