  • Annual Report 2007 | Reports & Filings | Investors
    Once upon a time, the world was spiky. Opportunities were unequal across countries, information was often walled and new economies were unheard of. But around the mid 990s, things started changing. Wealth began to spread, opening up fresh markets. A baby-boomer generation aged in developed countries while a Gen-Y exploded in emerging ones, rebalancing the workforce and propelling new economies. Technology became ubiquitous, connecting people and information. Together, these disruptive forces rearranged and leveled the global business-scape. Braving the waves of complex regulations and changing customer expectations, a new breed of entrepreneurs arrived to claim the unexplored land. They found a flat world. We live in exciting times.

  • Boys in Zinc on Trial Follow Penguin PENGUIN MODERN CLASSICS
    Svetlana Alexievich BOY S I N Z I N C Translated by Andrew Bromfield Contents Prologue From the Notebooks Day One ‘For many shall come in my name …’ Day Two ‘And another dieth in the bitterness of his soul …’ Day Three ‘Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards …’ Post Mortem Boys in Zinc on Trial Follow Penguin PENGUIN MODERN CLASSICS BOYS IN ZINC Svetlana Alexievich was born in Ivano-Frankivsk in 1948 and has spent most of her life in the Soviet Union and present- day Belarus, with prolonged periods of exile in Western Europe. Starting out as a journalist, she developed her own non-fiction genre which brings together a chorus of voices to describe a specific historical moment. Her works include The Unwomanly Face of War (1985), Last Witnesses (1985), Boys in Zinc (1991), Chernobyl Prayer (1997) and Second-Hand Time (2013). She has won many international awards, including the 2015 Nobel Prize in Literature for ‘her polyphonic writings, a monument to suffering and courage in our time’. Andrew Bromfield earned his degree in Russian Studies at Sussex University and lived in Russia for several years. He has been a full-time translator of Russian literature for more than thirty years and is best known for translating modern authors, but his work also includes books on Russian art, Russian classics and non–fiction, with a range from Tolstoy to the Moscow Conceptualism Movement. On 20 January 1801 the Cossacks of the Don Hetman Vasily Orlov were ordered to march to India. A month was set for the stage as far as Orenburg, and three months to march from there ‘via Bukharia and Khiva to the Indus River’.

  • Working for the IAEA
    Working for the IAEA A Guide for US Citizens 2018 Edition Working for the IAEA A Guide for US Citizens 2018 Edition From the Editors This Guidebook is intended to provide practical information for United States citizens embarking on or considering an assignment at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna, Austria. Since its first appearance in 1989, the Guidebook has been revised frequently to reflect changes occurring at the IAEA, within the United States Support Program to IAEA Safeguards (USSP), and in Vienna. The 2018 Edition reflects these changes at the time of publication. Nevertheless, IAEA salaries, allowances, and other benefits change, as do telephone numbers, addresses, and websites. Currency exchange rates, prices, and store hours in Vienna inevitably fluctuate. We regret any inconvenience this may cause our readers. The 2018 Edition of the Guidebook was prepared by the International Safeguards Project Office (ISPO) under the auspices of the USSP and was published by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL).
