THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERBy the star of Channel 5's Our Yorkshire Farm.Amanda Owen has been seen by millions on ITV's The Dales and Channel 5's Our Yorkshire Farm, living a life that has almost gone in today's modern world, a life ruled by the seasons and her animals. She is a farmer's wife and shepherdess, living alongside her husband Clive and seven children at Ravenseat, a 2000 acre sheep hill farm at the head of Swaledale in North Yorkshire. It's a challenging life but one she loves. In The Yorkshire Shepherdess she describes how the rebellious girl from Huddersfield, who always wanted to be a shepherdess, achieved her dreams. Full of amusing anecdotes and unforgettable characters, the book takes us from fitting in with the locals to fitting in motherhood, from the demands of the livestock to the demands of raising a large family in such a rural backwater. Amanda also evokes the peace of winter, when they can be cut off by snow without electricity or running water, the happiness of spring and the lambing season, and the backbreaking tasks of summertime - haymaking and sheepshearing - inspiring us all to look at the countryside and those who work there with new appreciation.

Projektet er blevet vores dominerende produktionsform, efter at masseproduktionen er outsourcet eller overtaget af robotter.Men projekter forløber sjældent som planlagt. At budgetter og tidsplaner overskrides er mere reglen end undtagelsen - og ikke sjældent bibringer de slet ikke den forventede værdi. Ikke mindst it-verdenen huser en sand kirkegård af kulsejlede projekter, der til sidst må opgives. Tænk Skat...Hvorfor går det sådan? Vi ved det ikke, for vi skynder os videre i stedet for at undersøge hvad der gik galt - og hvad vi kunne lære af det. Mens masseproduktionen har været genstand for undersøgelser og teoridannelse, gælder det ikke projektproduktion. Vi har masser af litteratur om projektledelse. Men ingen teori eller viden(skab) om projektet som produktionsform.Når man betænker at projekter står for halvdelen eller mere af den samlede produktion, er det jo direkte dumt, mener Sven Bertelsen, der selv kan se tilbage på et langt liv med projekter - som projektleder, rådgivende ingeniør, konsulent og førende teoretiker i den internationale lean construction bevægelse. Med den bagage og sin krøllede hjerne har han selv forsøgt at råde bod på miseren.I disse essays fremlægger han de første brikker til en ny teoridannelse om projektets natur og ledelse - et stykke pionérarbejde, der henter sin næring fra så forskellige verdener som hydraulik, kaosteori, kompleksitetsforskningen, de sociale videnskaber - og den amerikanske hær!Vi har grundlæggende ikke forstået projektets sande natur, er hans provokerende tese. Derfor er vi heller ikke i stand til at styre det. Det er selve præmissen - at alt kan planlægges - vi må opgive. Planer holder nemlig aldrig, for deres forudsætninger forandrer sig, endnu mens planen bliver lagt. I stedet må vi vende pyramiden på hovedet og overlade initiativ og ansvar til dem, der har støvlerne på i den levende organisme, projektet dybest set er.

”Nakke by har bevaret en del af sin struktur fra før udskiftningen. Uudflyttede gårde, vejforløb og flere gadehuse lå også i den østlige bydel. Der hvor Nakke by endte eller begyndte, hvor vejen delte sig ned mod Rørvig og ud til Nakkelandet, lå en lille gård med gravhøjen Sodehøj på marken. I husene havde skomageren og hjulmanden deres værksted, syersken sin systue og høkeren sin butik. På det højeste punkt knejsede Bakkegaarden, hvor bonden drev mølleri indtil en katastrofe indtraf, og gården blev til Annexgaarden. Byens eneste sidegade førte forbi Maries hus og Maarbjerggaard, hvor den endte ved vejmandens hus. Huset Havn lå ned til gadekæret og var byens eneste hus med status af sommerhus. Vejen og gadekæret var et yndet sted for leg og aktiviteter i de lyse timer, og de voksne stoppede op og havde tid til at snakke sammen: Om død, frygtelige brande, ulykker og bankdirektøren, der ville være proprietær. Glade budskaber om tilflytterne i skolen og i husene, der hurtigt faldt til og gav nyt liv i byen og branddammen …”

'A fascinating celebration of the impact that structural engineering has on all our lives.[an] eye-opening book' The Sunday Times In BUILT, structural engineer Roma Agrawal takes a unique look at how construction has evolved from the mud huts of our ancestors to skyscrapers of steel that reach hundreds of metres into the sky. She unearths how engineers have tunnelled through kilometres of solid mountains; how they've bridged across the widest and deepest of rivers, and tamed Nature's precious - and elusive - water resources. She tells vivid tales of the visionaries who created the groundbreaking materials in the Pantheon's record-holding concrete dome and the frame of the record-breaking Eiffel Tower. Through the lens of an engineer, Roma examines tragedies like the collapse of the Quebec Bridge, highlighting the precarious task of ensuring people's safety they hold at every step. With colourful stories of her life-long fascination with buildings - and her own hand-drawn illustrations - Roma reveals the extraordinary secret lives of structures.

An in-depth exploration of organic mushroom cultivation practices, groundbreaking research and myriad ways to incorporate mushrooms into your life "A clear, comprehensive guide that is a gift to amateur as well as professional mushroom growers. This book opens the doors wide to a diverse and fascinating fungal world."--Toby Hemenway, author of Gaia's Garden What would it take to grow mushrooms in space? How can mushroom cultivation help us manage, or at least make use of, invasive species such as kudzu and water hyacinth and thereby reduce dependence on herbicides? Is it possible to develop a low-cost and easy-to-implement mushroom-growing kit that would provide high-quality edible protein and bioremediation in the wake of a natural disaster? How can we advance our understanding of morel cultivation so that growers stand a better chance of success? For more than twenty years, mycology expert Tradd Cotter has been pondering these questions and conducting trials in search of the answers. In Organic Mushroom Farming and Mycoremediation, Cotter not only offers readers an in-depth exploration of best organic mushroom cultivation practices; he shares the results of his groundbreaking research and offers myriad ways to apply your cultivation skills and further incorporate mushrooms into your life―whether your goal is to help your community clean up industrial pollution or simply to settle down at the end of the day with a cold Reishi-infused homebrew ale. Inside, you'll find: The Fundamentals of Mushroom Cultivation Innovative Applications and Projects Using Fungi Basic Laboratory Construction, Equipment, and Procedures Starting Cultures and Spawn Generation Detailed descriptions of over 25 different genus The book first guides readers through an in-depth exploration of indoor and outdoor cultivation. Covered skills range from integrating wood-chip beds spawned with king stropharia into your garden and building a "trenched raft" of hardwood logs plugged with shiitake spawn to producing oysters indoors on spent coffee grounds in a 4×4 space or on pasteurized sawdust in vertical plastic columns. For those who aspire to the self-sufficiency gained by generating and expanding spawn rather than purchasing it, Cotter offers in-depth coverage of lab techniques, including low-cost alternatives that make use of existing infrastructure and materials. Cotter also reports his groundbreaking research cultivating morels both indoors and out, "training" mycelium to respond to specific contaminants, and perpetuating spawn on cardboard without the use of electricity. Readers will discover information on making tinctures, powders, and mushroom-infused honey; making an antibacterial mushroom cutting board; and growing mushrooms on your old denim jeans. Geared toward readers who want to grow mushrooms without the use of pesticides, Cotter takes "organic" one step further by introducing an entirely new way of thinking―one that looks at the potential to grow mushrooms on just about anything, just about anywhere, and by anyone. "This comprehensive introduction to growing and utilizing fungi has something for all mushroom-inclined readers . . . . Both practical and passionate, Cotter offers extensive and detailed information."--Publishers Weekly

SBii-anvisning 235 er en del af SBi´s anvisningsserie om vandinstallationer og behandler dimensionering af vandinstallationer. Anvisningen knytter sig til SBi-anvisning 234, Vandinstallationer – generelle forhold og SBi-anvisning 236, Vandinstallationer – rør og anlæg. Indtil 2005 udgjorde vandnormen det lovmæssige grundlag for vandinstallationer. Nu skal vandinstallationer udføres, så de opfylder de krav, som er anført i Bygningsreglement 2010. Hensigten med SBi's anvisningsserie om vandinstallationer er at beskrive, hvordan disse kan udføres i praksis, så de opfylder bygningsreglementets krav. Anvisningerne er udarbejdet til brug sammen med DS 439, Norm for vandinstallationer.

Hvad er det egentlig, vi spiser? Alle har kun én krop og ét liv - alligevel har de færreste af os en klar holdning til det, vi spiser. Og strengt taget er det ikke så underligt.Vi lever i en tid, hvor mad er blevet fremmed for os; den er blevet til fødevarer. Fødevarer produceret af industrilandbrug, hvor gift, mistrivsel og elendig kvalitet er blevet normen. Dertil kommer en forarbejdningsindustri, som benytter alle tilladte kneb for at lave billige og underlødige varer, mens Fødevareministeriet og Sundhedsstyrelsen holder hånden under systemet og jonglerer med grænseværdier for noget så fremmed som gift i vores mad. Tag med på en rejse gennem fødevarerne og følg en branche, der ingen midler skyr i jagten på profit. Bogen er en øjenåbner af format - den lægger industriens og landbrugets kort på bordet, så du får mulighed for at træffe reelle valg under dine indkøb. Mad vs. Fødevarer har forord af kogemand Nikolaj Kirk, der anser bogen som den vigtigste skrevet på dansk om fødevarer i nyere tid.

Sektion 1: Grundlæggende sejlads - af Sejlerbogen, Danmarks store håndbog til sejlere.
