On April 5, 2012, President Barack Obama signed the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, better known as the JOBS Act. The act is designed to “reopen American capital markets to small companies,” defined in the act as <em>Emerging Growth Companies</em>. This is one of the most significant legislative initiatives in finance since the Securities and Exchange Acts of 1933 and 1934, and it opens up funding to a slew of companies previously shut out of the capital markets. <p> </p> <p> Here’s the good news: Small businesses and startups will be able to raise up to $1 million in equity (or debt) funding online via what are called <em>Crowdfunding Platforms</em>—online communities and websites. Imagine an eBay-like site that allows you to post your idea for a commercial venture online and then allows investors to purchase equity shares or stakes in it. As one journalist put it, it’s “social media meets venture capital.” </p> <p> </p> <p> How can you get in on the new funding opportunities? That’s what <em>The JOBS Act: Crowdfunding for Small Businesses and Startups</em> is all about. Investment expert William</p> <p> </p> <p> Michael Cunningham shows how the new law will enable you to use the internet to raise significant amounts of capital funding for your startup. After discussing briefly the development and implementation of the law, what it means, and how it will impact the business startup marketplace, he delivers the nuts and bolts of how to take advantage of the JOBS Act to access new sources of capital for your small business or startup. As you’ll see, the act has the power to unleash a new wave of innovation, increase employment, and set many more average entrepreneurs and investors on the road to wealth. </p> <p> </p> <p> Not just for entrepreneurs, <em>The JOBS Act: Crowdfunding for Small Businesses and Startups</em> will benefit investors, securities lawyers, community development specialists, educators, venture capitalists, and those offering services in the new crowdfunding arena. It is, simply, the most current and most comprehensive compendium of information on the law and its impact on this new market.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

'Funny, chilling, intriguing: each tale offers something different from the last, and the overall result is like listening to a perfectly made album.' —Mark Watson An anechoic chamber is a soundproofed room with no echo. The profound silence it produces is disturbing enough. But listen carefully and you'll hear something worse … In this new collection of uncanny short stories, award-winning author Will Wiles finds sinister creatures and subtle nightmares in mundane modern environments and bureaucracy. A cursed NHS file brings doom to whoever handles it. A memory-foam mattress breaks down the walls of sleep. A marketing executive for a property developer turns to the occult. And horror seeps from the most unexpected places: eBay purchases, boxes of holiday photographs, and the hidden corners of the smart TV menu. While mostly modern in setting, this is a collection steeped in the tradition of the weird tale and the ghost story, and includes homages to the greats of the previous century: a doomed Edwardian antiquarian is drawn into a murderous plot involving a Roman mosaic, and river boatmen uncover eldritch terror in a deserted mining town. You'll never look at some things the same way again.

«Baluchistán», «Beluchistán», «el Beluchistán», elijan ustedes, no había sido más que un eco lejano del Gran Juego entre rusos y británicos, poco más que una ilusión óptica en uno de esos mapas militares del siglo xix pegados en tela. Es un topónimo rotundo, sonoro y, sobre todo, evocador, aunque el procesador de textos insiste en subrayarlo siempre en rojo. <br> <br> Un proverbio pastún dice que Dios no encontró páramo más inhóspito ni periferia más remota para arrojar los escombros de la creación. En cuanto a la ciencia, geólogos norteamericanos lo catalogaron como «lo más parecido a Marte sobre la Tierra»; de hecho, uno busca «Baluchistán» en Ebay y casi todo son piedras: axinitas, brucitas, tremolitas, fluoritas… Pero también es oro, uranio, petróleo y gas, mucho gas, lo que se esconde bajo las sandalias de este pueblo (más de quince millones de personas) atrapado justo donde chocan las fronteras de Irán, Pakistán y Afganistán. <br> <br> Hay que hacer un pequeño esfuerzo para entender todo esto: uno ha de dirigir su mente hacia Oriente y pensar en aquello como un naufragio del que nadie informó. Sobrevivieron camelleros y taxistas, estudiantes, profesoras y peluqueros, escritoras, guerrilleros, refugiados, nómadas e incluso aristócratas. Sus historias coinciden en que empiezan, o acaban, en uno de los lugares más desconocidos del planeta. <br> <br> <br> SOBRE EL AUTOR <br> <br> A <b>Karlos Zurutuza</b> (Donostia, 1971) le habría gustado embarcarse en Nantucket, pero sus pies le llevaban siempre hacia el este, generalmente por los lodazales y polvazales más periféricos. Los kurdos o los baluches, el colectivo LGTBI iraquí, los mandeos en Irán, los mingrelios atrapados en la gran zanja del Cáucaso… Son ya dos décadas contando historias por las que nadie apuesta pero que, contra todo pronóstico, ha conseguido publicar en las cabeceras más grandes (The Guardian, The Independent, Al Jazeera, Politico…). No es tanto el ir como el poder volver al lugar donde se escribe la cara B de la historia. Eso dice siempre. <br> <br> Es autor de "Tierra adentro. Vida y muerte en la ruta libia hacia Europa" (Libros del K.O., 2018) y, junto a David Meseguer, de Respirando fuego. En las entrañas de la lucha kurda por la supervivencia (Península, 2019). <br> <br>

Axel ist Retro-Videospiel-Liebhaber und Sammler von klassischen Videospielen. Zusammen mit ein paar Kumpels kommt er einer, wie er es nennt, Retro-Videospiel-Mafia auf die Schliche. Er ist sicher, dass diese dubiose Organisation der Grund dafür ist, dass seit einiger Zeit die Preise für Retro-Videospiele sowie Retro-Konsolen, auf ein irrwitziges Niveau gestiegen sind. Ein altes Haus und eine programmierte eBay Software verstärken seine Meinung. Zusammen mit seinen Kumpels kann er nach und nach immer mehr Puzzle-Teile sammeln, die seine Befürchtungen in fast schon unvorstellbarer Art und Weise bestätigen.
