The Complete Muhammad Ali
No full textIncluding material and photographs not included in most of the 100 other books about the champion, Ishmael Reed's The Complete Muhammad Ali is more than just a biography-it is a fascinating portrait of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st. An honest, balanced portrayal of Ali, the book includes voices that have been omitted from other books. It charts Ali's evolution from Black Nationalism to a universalism, but does not discount the Nation of Islam and Black Nationalism's important influence on his intellectual development. Filipino American author Emil Guillermo speaks about how "The Thrilla' In Manila" brought the Philippines into the 20th century. Fans of Muhammad Ali, boxing fans, and those interested in modern African American history and the Nation of Islam will be fascinated by this biography by an accomplished American author.Intro -- DEDICATION -- INTRODUCTION -- The Curious History of an Icon -- CHAPTER 1 -- CHAPTER 2 -- CHAPTER 3 -- CHAPTER 4 -- CHAPTER 5 -- CHAPTER 6 -- CHAPTER 7 -- Did the Secret Government Fear a U.S. Muslim/Overseas Muslim Alliance? -- CHAPTER 8 -- CHAPTER 9 -- The Break Between the Prophet and his Disciple -- CHAPTER 10 -- CHAPTER 11 -- CHAPTER 12 -- The GOAT (Greatest Of All Time): Ali or Louis? -- CHAPTER 13 -- The Nation of Islam, the Mob, Showdowns in Canada and Sonny Liston -- CHAPTER 14 -- CHAPTER 15 -- The Taunts: Marketing or Racism? -- CHAPTER 16 -- CHAPTER 17 -- CHAPTER 18 -- CHAPTER 19 -- Boxing and the Brain -- CHAPTER 20 -- Ali's Feet -- CHAPTER 21 -- Mr. Dick -- CHAPTER 22 -- CHAPTER 23 -- The Opening Ceremonies, November 2005 -- CHAPTER 24 -- December 2005, Las Vegas -- CHAPTER 25 -- CHAPTER 26 -- June 16, 2004 -- CHAPTER 27 -- CHAPTER 28 -- CHAPTER 29 -- Aix-en-Provence -- CHAPTER 30 -- Ali as a Black Nationalist -- San Francisco, January 2004 Black Liberation Book Fair -- CHAPTER 31 -- January 31, 2004 -- CHAPTER 32 -- October 2005, Chicago -- CHAPTER 33 -- Why Ali remained with Elijah instead of following Malcolm -- CHAPTER 34 -- CHAPTER 35 -- February 4, 2006, Oakland, California -- CHAPTER 36 -- Like Zeus Descending from Mount Olympus -- CHAPTER 37 -- CHAPTER 38 -- Tuesday, February 28, 2006, New York -- CHAPTER 39 -- Bigger Than Boxing -- CHAPTER 40 -- Tribes Gallery, New York, April 2006 -- CHAPTER 41 -- June 2006, Louisville, Kentucky -- CHAPTER 42 -- CHAPTER 43 -- CHAPTER 45 -- Bad Company -- CHAPTER 46 -- Coxson, A Very Charming Rogue -- CHAPTER 47 -- Ali and the largest embezzlement scheme in Wells Fargo history -- CHAPTER 48 -- CHAPTER 49 -- "Lonnie is a stabilizing force."-Harry Belafonte -- October 29, 2006 -- CHAPTER 50 -- Abdul Rahman -- CHAPTER 51 -- CHAPTER 52 -- CHAPTER 53How Will Ali Be Remembered?

Scelimena cf. dentiumeris [misidentification]: Tan & Wahab 2018. Type material examined. 1♀ HOLOTYPE Sakoembang (NCB). The photographs of the holotype are available in OSF. Type material of Hexocera sexspicata was not examined. According to Hancock (1915) the type series of H. sexspicata is composed of a single male holotype from Borneo: Sabah: Sandakan, deposited in the collections of the Zoological Survey of India in Kolkata. Type locality: Indonesia: Borneo (Kalimatan): Meratus Mt. Range: Gunung Sakoembang. Notes. Among Scelimena species, S. hexodon is the species of the highest pronotal projections—VL, ML and MM1 are strongly projected as high and sharp spines. It is the type species of the Scelimena hexodon species group. S. hexodon is related to S. marta. Specimen from Brunei reported by Tan et al. (2018) as Scelimena dentiumeris belong to this species.Published as part of Muhammad, Amira Aqilah, Tan, Ming Kai, Abdullah, Nurul Ashikin, Azirun, Mohammad Sofian, Bhaskar, Dhaneesh & Skejo, Josip, 2018, An annotated catalogue of the pygmy grasshoppers of the tribe Scelimenini Bolívar, 1887 (Orthoptera: Tetrigidae) with two new Scelimena species from the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra, pp. 1-70 in Zootaxa 4485 (1) on page 47, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4485.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/143795
Performance of Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA) with lime as stabilising agent for soil improvement / Muhammad Sofian Abdullah … [et al.]
No full textAgricultural waste materials have a great potential to be used as chemical stabilizer in the soil stabilization technique. In this research, the performance of Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA) was investigated to improve the engineering properties of silty soil by mixing it with the lime slurry under different curing period. Silty soil had been used in this study because it is a problematic soil with low strength. The problem related to this soil is like structure failure due to inadequacy of the soil strength. Objective of this study is to investigate the performance of lime and POFA as the stabilization agent on silty soil. More than hundreds remoulded sample have been prepared based on 1:3 ratio (lime:POFA).These samples were cured for 7, 14, 28 and 60 days. The performance of POFA in stabilizing silty soil is great at the ratio of 2% POFA and 6% lime in the silty soil. The performance of the stabilized silty soil will decrease if the ratio of POFA and lime exceeding 2:6. The strength development of soil treated with lime and POFA is increasing with respect to the curing time. As a conclusion, POFA can be used to treat the silty soil as well as reduce the environmental problem
