Samuel Santos is the epitome of corporate America from his tailored suit to his polished loafers, and gold watch on his left wrist. You would never think that this former executive of a Fortune 500 company spent his formidable years wading through trash on the streets of Brazil. Now, Santos shares how he grew in business and faith with his memoir “In Spite of the Headwinds: My Journey from Waste Picker to Senior Executive.” “In Spite of the Headwinds” chronicles Santos’ rise from lowly waste picker to an accomplished 40-year career at Johnson & Johnson. Santos discusses his poverty-stricken upbringing and determination to provide for both himself and his family. He shares his personal story of venturing into manhood, when he leaves his family to obtain an education and find a profitable job that will help provide for those he left behind. His journey to personal and professional success is hindered by moments of discrimination and familial toils. Nonetheless, Santos remains focused on his business goals and his steadfast Christian convictions. “In Spite of Headwinds is a unique blend of faith, work in corporate business and diversity,” Santos said. “At times, all I had was my faith as reliance to succeed and move me forward into a better environment – both personally and professionally. You dictate your own path, so long as you trust in God, while embracing courage and perseverance.” Santos’ story is one of hope, belief, and determination, demonstrating how one’s humble beginnings do not determine their future.

The best-selling 1st book in the series from industry veteran, Bryan Falchuk. For over 100 years, Insurers have stood by customers at some of the toughest moments in their lives, and helped allow people to go about their lives and pursue their business ideas without having to worry about the risks involved. Today, those customers have different expectations for how they want to do business and be served. And those expectations are changing faster than ever before. The industry has faced many headwinds, making it difficult to keep up with change – regulation, bureaucracy, system constraints, past technology project pain, etc., and disruptive threats from a new generation of startups that are free from many of these legacy constraints. And yet, several carriers have innovated and evolved. Understanding their paths to success can help shed light on how we as an industry can continue to evolve to meet our customers’ needs despite the disruption and headwinds we all face. The Future of Insurance: From Disruption to Evolution shares the first-hand accounts of insurers across functions and lines of business to not just give inspiration, but leave readers with a tangible blueprint for evolving through a new set of modern, flexible and responsive approaches and tools.

Historical accounts of racial discrimination in transportation have focused until now on trains, buses, and streetcars and their respective depots, terminals, stops, and other public accommodations. It is essential to add airplanes and airports to this narrative, says Anke Ortlepp. Air travel stands at the center of the twentieth century’s transportation revolution, and airports embodied the rapidly mobilizing, increasingly prosperous, and cosmopolitan character of the postwar United States. When segregationists inscribed local definitions of whiteness and blackness onto sites of interstate and even international transit, they not only brought the incongruities of racial separation into sharp relief but also obligated the federal government to intervene. Ortlepp looks at African American passengers; civil rights organizations; the federal government and judiciary; and airport planners, architects, and managers as actors in shaping aviation’s legal, cultural, and built environments. She relates the struggles of black travelers—to enjoy the same freedoms on the airport grounds that they enjoyed in the aircraft cabin—in the context of larger shifts in the postwar social, economic, and political order. Jim Crow terminals, Ortlepp shows us, were both spatial expressions of sweeping change and sites of confrontation over the renegotiation of racial identities. Hence, this new study situates itself in the scholarly debate over the multifaceted entanglements of “race” and “space.”

Follow a true story of a family’s adventure as they embark on a three-year sea voyage on their twenty-nine foot sailing boat. Reliant on a sextant and compass, Bill Hapgood, his wife and their two daughters navigated approximately 26,000 nautical miles before making their return to Canada. While some questioned their judgement to embark upon a dangerous journey, they remained undeterred in their quest to explore wondrous locations and experience great adventure. With a sense of exploration in front of them, they were not prepared for the challenges that lay ahead—at sea and on land—not least unpredictable weather, piracy, drug dealers and places that were notorious for violence against anybody perceived to be an outsider. Despite the dangers they would meet a host of interesting and unusual characters. Families who had also made the sea their home and strangers who would become close friends. Keeping in contact with each other as they journeyed forth, such camaraderie would prove essential throughout their journey. They would discover that these newly found relationships would be a vital ingredient in holding them together in their most desperate times, particularly on occasions when they would question their own rationale. Three Years at Sea is a tale of courage, discipline and a family’s devotion to succeed as they set out on a three-year sailing trip of 26,000 nautical miles of ocean. An account of a family’s unity, unexpected learning and daring to accomplish their dream—a true adventure of danger and discovery.

This paper discusses Morocco’s Ex Post Evaluation of Exceptional Access Under the 2012 Precautionary and Liquidity Line (PLL) Arrangement. The Ex Post Evaluation confirms that the 2012–14 PLL arrangement was consistent with the PLL qualification standards and requirements under the exceptional access policy at the time of the PLL arrangement request in August 2012 and at the subsequent reviews. The authorities’ policies helped maintain macroeconomic stability and reduce fiscal and external vulnerabilities, despite unfavorable external developments. It is observed that despite the significant macroeconomic achievements under the 2012–14 PLL arrangement, a number of policy challenges remained to be fully addressed.
