"This book describes a new life stage, encore adulthood, sandwiched between conventional adulthood-traditional careers and childrearing-and conventional old age. A time of varied paths in work, retirement, family care, or civic engagement, this stage is made possible by medical advances and lifestyle changes improving population health and longevity. The encore adult years occur around ages 55 to 75, as Boomers begin to think about second acts. Twenty-first-century life in North America and Europe is changing in remarkable ways-characterized by the books four key themes: First are similarities in changes at both ends of adulthood, emerging adulthood and encore adulthood. Both Millennials and Boomers are without scripts for whats next. Second, these times of rapid social, economic, and technological changes enable people to experiment, opening up opportunities for some to fashion new ways of working and living. Third, opportunities for renewal and heightened risks are unequally distributed; education, class, gender, race, and age expand or narrow life chances and life quality. Fourth is the distinctly gendered life courses of women and men, with financial, physical, and emotional well-being implications. The book is divided into three sections, each representing one of three research, policy, and action agendas: first is recognizing institutional inertia, and the outdatedness of contemporary career, retirement and life-course templates. Second is supporting Boomers time-shifting improvisations, their alternative pathways. Third is institutional work, including social innovations in language, customs, and policies opening up varied and customized career, retirement, and life-course paths."

"As the decisions made in the corridors of power bring the world to the brink of oblivion, five families from across the globe are brought together in an unforgettable tale of passion and conflict during the Cold War. When Rebecca Hoffmann, a teacher in East Germany, finds herself pursued by the secret police, she discovers that she has been living a lie. Her younger brother, Walli, longs to escape across the Berlin Wall to Britain to become part of the burgeoning music scene. In the United States, George Jakes, a bright young lawyer in the Kennedy administration, is a fierce supporter of the Civil Rights movement - as is the woman he is in love with, Verena, who works for Martin Luther King, Jr. Boarding a Greyhound bus in Washington to protest against segregation, they begin a fateful journey together. Russian activist, Tania Dvorkin, narrowly evades capture for producing an illegal news sheet. Her actions are made all the more perilous as her brother, Dimka, is a rising star in the heart of the Communist Party in the Kremlin. From the deep south of America to the vast expanses of Siberia, from the shores of Cuba to the swinging streets of Sixties London, Edge of Eternity is a sweeping tale of the fight for individual freedom in a world gripped by the mightiest clash of superpowers anyone has ever known."

"This research aims to evaluate the investment feasibility of an edge computing project in Jakarta's Central Business District (CBD) using the Value at Risk (VaR) approach. By leveraging financial projections, technical specifications, and risk analysis, this study provides a comprehensive assessment of the project's potential. The analysis involves calculating the Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Payback Period based on projected cash flows and costs. The edge computing infrastructure, consisting of 20 edge nodes distributed across multiple sites, is evaluated for its capacity to handle significant data traffic and provide efficient computing resources. The financial model includes detailed capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operational expenditure (OPEX) projections, ensuring a robust assessment of the project's viability. The results of the analysis show a positive NPV, indicating that the project is financially feasible. Additionally, sensitivity analysis and Monte Carlo simulation are used to assess the impact of various risk factors on the project's financial performance. This study contributes to the practical understanding of edge computing investments and provides valuable insights for stakeholders considering similar projects in urban settings.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi kelayakan investasi proyek edge computing di Kawasan Pusat Bisnis (CBD) Jakarta menggunakan pendekatan Value at Risk (VaR). Dengan memanfaatkan proyeksi keuangan, spesifikasi teknis, dan analisis risiko, studi ini memberikan penilaian komprehensif terhadap potensi proyek tersebut. Analisis melibatkan perhitungan Nilai Kini Bersih (NPV), Tingkat Pengembalian Internal (IRR), dan Periode Pengembalian berdasarkan arus kas dan biaya yang diproyeksikan. Infrastruktur edge computing, yang terdiri dari 20 node edge yang didistribusikan di beberapa lokasi, dievaluasi untuk kapasitasnya dalam menangani lalu lintas data yang signifikan dan menyediakan sumber daya komputasi yang efisien. Model keuangan mencakup proyeksi pengeluaran modal (CAPEX) dan pengeluaran operasional (OPEX) secara rinci, memastikan penilaian yang kuat terhadap kelayakan proyek. Hasil analisis menunjukkan NPV positif, yang mengindikasikan bahwa proyek ini layak secara finansial. Selain itu, analisis sensitivitas dan simulasi Monte Carlo digunakan untuk menilai dampak berbagai faktor risiko terhadap kinerja keuangan proyek. Studi ini berkontribusi pada pemahaman praktis tentang investasi edge computing dan memberikan wawasan berharga bagi para pemangku kepentingan yang mempertimbangkan proyek serupa di lingkungan perkotaan."
