نویسندگان: Cathy Maxwell خلاصه: The constraints of quiet widowhood have become too much for Lady Caroline Pearson to bear—especially now that her brother-in law has idiotically, and illegally, gambled away her house. Boldly, she confronts the new owner in person. But not only does the dashing rogue, James Ferrington, refuse to return Caroline's deed, he tries to take scandalous advantage of her as well. Sheepish and repentant, James arrives on Caroline's doorstep to make amends— unaware that the young widow and her eccentric aunt are intent on retaliation. James merely meant to seduce a bewitching minx and have done with it—and, suddenly, he's a kidnapped prisoner in Caroline's cellar. But most shocking of all, James realizes that he has no desire whatsoever to be free—for the audacious Caroline has inflamed his senses, destroyed his reason . . . and completely captured his heart.

An Insider's Guide to Refinancing Your Mortgage: Money-Saving Secrets You Need to Know - Original PDF
نویسندگان: David Reed خلاصه: Having been in the mortgage business for nearly two decades,I’ve seen mortgage companies come and go. And I’ve seen mort-gage loan programs come and go along with them.Technology has made an impact on the mortgage industry.Mortgage loan approvals used to take several weeks to accom-plish. Now, it’s only a matter of days. Loans are approved usingautomated systems and no longer need human beings makingjudgment calls as to the borrower’s creditworthiness.Since loans are so easy to approve and take very little time tocomplete, the entry-level qualifications for loan officers are verylow. Sure, loan officers have to get licensed in the state wherethey place mortgage loans. But trust me, the licensing procedureis typically nothing more than taking a rudimentary test and get-ting fingerprinted. There are more inexperienced loan officers inthis business than ever before, all trying to get a piece of the‘‘refinance pie.’’Because of the ease of mortgage approvals, interest ratesdon’t have to fall very much in order to make a refinance a rea-sonable proposition. And mortgage companies, in all their glory,can market themselves silly trying to convince you to refinanceyour loan with them. Heck, there are even classes that loan officerscan take to learn how to convince you to refinance your mortgage

The Complete Canadian Eldercare Guide: Expert Solutions to Help You Make the Best Decisions for Your Loved Ones - PDF
The Complete Canadian Eldercare Guide: Expert Solutions to Help You Make the Best Decisions for Your Loved Ones - PDF
نویسندگان: Caroline Tapp-McDougall خلاصه: E ldercare and its inherent superhero responsibilities are the new facts of life for aging Canadians and the invincible baby boomers. Today, as adult sons and daughters with high-maintenance careers, as spouses with ailing partners or rela- tives, we find ourselves juggling work, life, and care responsibility. We are, as the saying goes, “sandwiched” between the care needs of others and our still-dependent children. Research shows that families are, for the most part, unpre- pared for the eldercare challenges that lie ahead. Many move directly into “care in crisis” mode, make plans on the fly, and regret not making decisions about aging issues in advance. Workplace health, wellness, and productivity issues are huge. Today, employers and governments identify productivity, absen- teeism, presenteeism, and retention as key factors for their aging work forces with the statistics pointing to eldercare as one of the biggest hurdles to overcome. Of note: • More than 3.5 million Canadians are currently over the age of 65. By the year 2020, that number will more than double.1 • For 70% of Canadians age 30 to 60, caregiving for aging parents is now a reality with eldercare being shared across families.2 • More than 70% of informal caregivers are women, most often wives (24%) or adult daughters (29%).
Is Parallel Programming Hard, And, If So, What Can You Do About It? (2011-01-02 draft) - PDF
Is Parallel Programming Hard, And, If So, What Can You Do About It? (2011-01-02 draft) - PDF
نویسندگان: Paul E. McKenney خلاصه: Preface The purpose of this book is to help you under- stand how to program shared-memory parallel ma- chines without risking your sanity.1 By describing the algorithms and designs that have worked well in the past, we hope to help you avoid at least some of the pitfalls that have beset parallel projects. But you should think of this book as a foundation on which to build, rather than as a completed cathe- dral. You mission, if you choose to accept, is to help make further progress in the exciting field of paral- lel programming, progress that should in time render this book obsolete. Parallel programming is not as hard as it is reputed, and it is hoped that this book makes it even easier for you. This book follows a watershed shift in the parallel- programming field, from being primarily the domain of science, research, and grand-challenge projects to being primarily an engineering discipline. In pre- senting this engineering discipline, this book will ex- amine the specific development tasks peculiar to par- allel programming, and describe how they may be most effectively handled, and, in some surprisingly common special cases, automated. This book is written in the hope that present- ing the engineering discipline underlying successful parallel-programming projects will free a new gener- ation of parallel hackers from the need to slowly and painstakingly reinvent old wheels, instead focusing their energy and creativity on new frontiers. Al- though the book is intended primarily for self-study, it is likely to be more generally useful. It is hoped that this book will be useful to you, and that the ex- perience of parallel programming will bring you as much fun, excitement, and challenge as it has pro- vided the authors over the years.
Work Like You're Showing Off: The Joy, Jazz, and Kick of Being Better Tomorrow Than You Were Today - PDF
Work Like You're Showing Off: The Joy, Jazz, and Kick of Being Better Tomorrow Than You Were Today - PDF
نویسندگان: Joe Calloway خلاصه: Showing off has been variously defined as pretentious- ness, exaggeration, posturing, bragging, inflated self- importance, arrogance, bigheadedness, pride, conceit, being full of yourself, immodesty, being vain, haughty, and overweening. Overweening? My goodness! Who, in their right mind, would want to be thought of as over- weening? The shame! The horror! Those definitions are all misguided interpretations of what is, in fact, the most noble of pursuits. Showing off is completely misunderstood and has gotten a very bad rap. What the world needs is not less showing off, but more. If you’re not showing off, then what’s the point? If you’re not showing off, then why even show up? Why go to work? Why play the game?
