Imagine you have found the ideal new home for yourself and your young daughter after several years of upheaval. You can't believe your luck! Not only is the new house wonderful, but your handsome (single) neighbour introduces himself to you within the first week of your arrival and there is more than a hint of romance in the air. Then - the unthinkable happens. A home invasion and rape. Just six months after moving in. Not My Story traces the tumultuous journey of the author through the foreign landscape of rape survivor. It follows the twists and turns of the police investigation, from the gruelling statement-taking marathon to the comprehensive forensic examination on the morning of the assault. The depressing and traumatising process of creating an identikit image which yielded no result. The book explores how rape trauma affects us and documents from the inside one person's recovery process. The title asserts the author's conviction that survivors do not have to be defined by the actions of others. After the perpetrator's eventual capture the justice process began and here the glaring omissions of the victim's needs were all too apparent as the legal machinery ground into action. The rape raised so many questions about crime, prisons and the possibilities of restorative justice, and eventually the author braved a mediation conference with the unknown perpetrator 6 years after the assault. From the very morning of the assault, the author was gripped by the need for "something good" to come out of the atrocity. She tried working with the media, giving evidence to an Inquiry, and spent countless hours volunteering for grassroots organisations to introduce advocacy into the service delivery mix. She learned the hard way that more than good intent is required to bring about service enhancements in an area few people want to talk about. Not My Story is a kitchen sink memoir featuring a home invasion, rape, social and restorative justice,.

It s rare to find big sound in something so small. Beats Tour earphones are among the first earbuds to hold their own against over-ear headphones. Now with a newly designed custom fit and improved sound quality, you can get even closer to the music. The perfect listening experience requires the perfect fit. We completely redesigned the Beats Tour and included removable wingtips to provide a customizable fit for precise sound. While compact and portable, the new Tour is powerful enough to handle all kinds of music. Now you can crank up the volume without distorting the sound. Doesn t matter how carefully you wind them up, cords and pockets just don t mix. That s why we ve redesigned our cables to make sure they re ultra-flexible and tangle-free. Switch easily between songs and incoming calls. No need to take off your Tour to talk into the phone. It s a seamless transition so you can always be on the go. Materials: Plastic, Metal, Silicon Product Dimensions: 50.00"L x 0.10"W x 0.98"H; Weight: 0.03 lbs.

Fabricated tells the story of 3D printers, humble manufacturing machines that are bursting out of the factory and into schools, kitchens, hospitals, even onto the fashion catwalk. Fabricated describes our emerging world of printable products, where people design and 3D print their own creations as easily as they edit an online document. A 3D printer transforms digital information into a physical object by carrying out instructions from an electronic design file, or 'blueprint.' Guided by a design file, a 3D printer lays down layer after layer of a raw material to 'print' out an object. That's not the whole story, however. The magic happens when you plug a 3D printer into today's mind-boggling digital technologies. Add to that the Internet, tiny, low cost electronic circuitry, radical advances in materials science and biotech and voila! The result is an explosion of technological and social innovation. Fabricated takes the reader onto a rich and fulfilling journey that explores how 3D printing is poised to impact nearly every part of our lives. Aimed at people who enjoy books on business strategy, popular science and novel technology, Fabricated will provide readers with practical and imaginative insights to the question 'how will this technology change my life?' Based on hundreds of hours of research and dozens of interviews with experts from a broad range of industries, Fabricated offers readers an informative, engaging and fast-paced introduction to 3D printing now and in the future.

The kitchen of your dreams isn't always the instant model found in an upmarket designer catalogue; it's often the result of a creative journey, touched by the familiar objects, colours, materials and textures you love and which make you feel happy. The high-quality photography reflects the personality of each featured kitchen, the owner's lifestyle and the style of cooking.

After years of talking with others whose primary or seccondary relationships are failing, I have learned the basic mistakes that you can learn and avoid. Come and laugh with me at some true-crime-well, not really crime in the crimal sense-habits that have not worked for others and don't stand a snowball's chance in H- of working for you! Any resemblance between your friends and those described in this book is entirely intentional-in fact, if none of the anecdotes sound familiar, you are either a Vampire or an Alien, or both!

Act Like You Have Been There: Rules for My Brother began many years ago, as a set of rules for my little brother to follow, while I was living away from home. I jotted down on a piece of paper a few things that I felt he needed to understand. Little things he could refer to in case he needed guidance during a difficult time. It started as a few thoughts like: always have a firm handshake, enter a room with confidence, live with chivalry. It has since developed into a large collection of rules and words of advice.

Extracted from the bestselling title, My Life, My Rules: Stories of 18 Unconventional Careers by Sonia Golani, this is the fascinating story of Manohar Parrikar's journey from the CM of Goa to the Union Defence Minister of India. As a child growing up in Mapusa, Manohar lived his life by the two principles his parents taught him: honesty and equality. 'I think this approach gave me an edge when I came into politics. I have no hesitation in treatingpeople as equal. That puts me on a different platform from others. In fact, I didn't know about my caste till I went to IIT…' At IIT, Bombay life took a turn for this young engineering student and between then and now, Manohar Parrikar still lives his life with his own set of rules….
