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.

The focus ison what you need to know about using Telecom and Internet equip-ment, facilities, and services to transport content in broadcasting orsimilar operations. It is not a biased pitch for classical terrestrialtelecom networks or satellite networks. Its target audience includesexecutives, managers, and professional staff engaged in engineering,on-air, and content production operations. The book is in two parts.The first is technical in nature, while the second is business orientedor, as one of my reviewers said, ‘‘administrative.’’Practical Internet and Telecom for Broadcast Engineering and Operationsgestated in the fall of 2002 following the ‘‘Streaming For BroadcastEngineers’’ tutorial sessions for the IEEE Broadcast Technical Society.The first seminar was conducted in October 2001. Attendees weremostly seasoned broadcast engineers with many years experience.The second seminar occurred in April 2002 and attracted a remark-ably larger group with mixed backgrounds. No formal survey wastaken, but it was easy to discern the group consisted of broadcastersinterested in learning about Internet technology and Internet engin-eers wanting to know more about video.

نویسندگان: Theoni Pappas خلاصه: The Joy Of Mathematics and More Joy of Mathematics unveilconcepts, ideas, questions, history, problems, and pastimeswhich reveal the influence and nature of mathematics.To experience the joy of mathematics is to realize mathematics isnot some isolated subject that has little relationship to the thingsaround us other than to frustrate us with unbalanced checkbooks and complicated computations. Few grasp the true natureof mathematics - so entwined in our environment and in ourlives. So many things around us can be described bymathematics. Mathematical concepts are even inherent in thestructure of living cells.These books seek to help you become aware of the inseparablerelationship of mathematics and the world by presentingglimpses and images of mathematics in the many facets of ourlives.The joy of mathematics is similar to the experience ofdiscovering something for the first time. It is an almost child-likefeeling of wonder. Once you have experienced it you will notforget that feeling - it can be as exciting as looking into amicroscope for the first time and seeing things that have alwaysbeen around you that you have been unable to see before.When deciding how to organize The Joy Of Mathematics, at firstcertain divisions immediately came to mind-for example,mathematics and nature, mathematics and science, mathematicsand art, and so forth.

Thus, the topics are randomly arranged toretain the true essence of discovery. The Joy Of Mathematics andMore Joy of Mathematics are designed to be opened at any point.Each section, regardless of how large or small, is essentiallyself-contained.After one experiences the sheer joy of mathematics, theappreciation of mathematics follows and then the desire to learnmore

نویسندگان: Mims Cushing, Norman Latov خلاصه: When I was in school, back in the 1950s, from third grade throughtwelfth, everyone was required to take athletics, Monday throughFriday. How I loved getting out of sports. Mother wouldn’t give me a“Sports Excuse” very often, so I had to run in field hockey, lacrosse, basket-ball. In winter, we had the dreaded running races in the gym. But I did like towalk. My Mom and I went into New York City from Larchmont on weekendsand traipsed up and down Madison or Fifth Avenues at a breakneck pace. Ididn’t have neuropathy. Yet.Feet to Brain: Are You There?When we moved to Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, in 1991, I enjoyed walking toLakeside, a community near mine; however, in 1996, people passed me byand soon were far ahead. My 30-minute walk took 40 minutes. Friendswanted me to go faster, but my feet didn’t like the idea. My legs were losingstrength, a common problem with neuropathy. My feet were tingling, burn-ing, and numb—especially at night. I felt stabbing, shooting pains. Ding.Ding. Ding. Bells and whistles should have sounded an alarm, but they did-n’t. In the 1990s, few people knew about peripheral neuropathy, myselfincluded. A huge number still haven’t a clue about it, even though 20 millionpeople in the United States have peripheral neuropathy. And the numbersare growing.In 1996, I went to an internist because the symptoms made me crabby. Shesaid, “You may have peripheral neuropathy. See a neurologist.” Her quick diag-nosis was unusual. Not so long ago, some patients weren’t diagnosed for along time. Thirty-four years is the longest I’ve heard of.
