Dr JC will take you on a hilarious journey through many areas of your life.

    “When you take an orchid out of its pot, you must first loosen the roots’ hold on the soil. Late last evening as I unravelled the braids of the shattered phalaenopsis, I saw how the ends were white and shrivelled from neglect. You have to do it gently—it’s like combing hair. I remember Mum’s fingers running through mine, and mine through hers, until the final months when all of it started to fall.” 
     
     
    A pot shatters. An arrangement falls apart. A florist finds herself amidst the scattered leaves of history. At once a poetry collection and a documentary novella, The Orchid Folios reimagines the orchid as a living, breathing document of history: a history that enmeshes the personal, colonial, linguistic, and biotechnological with the Vanda Miss Joaquim, the symbol of Singapore’s postcolonial hybridity. While the Orchid has shaped the fantastical narratives that govern our multiracial City in a Garden, it continues to shape-shift and bloom on its own terms, challenging us to imagine a decolonised Singapore. This is the organism at the heart of The Orchid Folios—by turns stark and unruly, documenting and challenging the narratives that are the roots of our national consciousness.

    ONE PIECE 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
      
    CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
      
    One Piece is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda, serialized since 1997. The story follows Monkey D. Luffy and his Straw Hat Pirates as they explore the Grand Line in search of the "One Piece" treasure. The manga has been adapted into anime series, films, live-action series, and video games. It's the best-selling manga of all time, praised for its storytelling, characters, and humor. One Piece is known for its unique world with diverse races, the World Government, and special powers like Devil Fruits and Haki. 
      
    CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
      
    Eiichiro Oda's interest in pirates began in childhood from watching the animated series Vicky the Viking, which inspired him to create a manga series about pirates. Oda was also influenced by pirate biographies and incorporated characteristics of real-life pirates into many One Piece characters 
      
    The concept of Devil Fruits, which grant unique powers, was inspired by the manga Doraemon, with their abilities reflecting Oda's personal fantasies and daily life. Oda designs Devil Fruits based on what would fulfill a human desire, making their appearance enticing to eat. 
      
    The names of many special attacks in One Piece use a form of punning, where phrases written in kanji are paired with an idiosyncratic reading. Some of Zoro's sword techniques sound like types of food when read aloud, although they look fearsome when read by sight. 
      
    Oda is very particular about the translation of his work, with the English version often using one onomatopoeia for multiple used in the Japanese version. For example, different sounds of rain are both translated as "fshhhhhhh".

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    Welcome to a new installment of the most successful collection in America, welcome to the Aeronautical Library! In this new edition, we have decided to take a different path to how we write and transmit knowledge and experiences. This new volume is not a technical manual like the previous manuals. Still, it is an explanatory manual based on experiences lived by a group of airline professionals who today form elite crews in international airlines worldwide. They will detail their paths until they reach where they are, they will express their experiences by recommending to each reader the most agile way to achieve their professional goals. 
    	This book is focused on understanding the way to becoming part of an international flight crew, starting from the initial interview in a company, through the entire personnel selection process, the theoretical courses of the plane to fly, the specific simulator instruction, the real flight instruction, the semi-annual instruction, the annual and semi-annual checks, the day-to-day work with all the operational details and many more details to know.  
    Throughout these pages, each reader will know the experiences lived by our team of pilots, today temporarily writers, who have dedicated their free time to making a portrait of their experiences that we will call "Stories of Success" for this manual to become an indispensable guide for any pilot who wants to achieve the dream of flying an international airline. For such dedication, we thank Marcos (Pilot Boeing 787 Latam Airlines), Maximiliano (Pilot Airbus 380 Emirates), Fernando (Pilot Airbus 320 LatamAirline) and José (PilotA330 AviancaAirlines).
