Electronics For You - Projects and Ideas 2000 - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: ransistor lead identification is cru-cial in designing and servicing. A cir-cuit designer or a serviceman must befully conversant with the types of tran-sistors used in a circuit. Erroneous leadidentification may lead to malfunctions,and, in extreme cases, even destructionof the circuit being designed or serviced.Though transistor manufacturers en-capsulate their products in different pack-age outlines for identification, it is im-possible to memorise the outlines of in-numerable transistors manufactured bythe industry. Although a number ofmanuals are published, which provide pindetails, they may not always be acces-sible. Besides, it is not always easy tofind out the details of a desired transis-tor by going through the voluminousmanuals. But, a handy gadget, called tran-sistor lead identifier, makes the job easy.All one has to do is place the transistorin the gadget’s socket to instantly get thedesired information on its display, irre-spective of the type and package-outlineof the device under test.A manually controlled version of thepresent project had been published in June’84 issue of EFY. The present model is to-tally microprocessor controlled, and henceall manually controlled steps are replacedby software commands. A special circuit,shown in Fig. 1, which acts as an interfaceto an 8085 -based microprocessor kit, hasbeen developed for the purpose.

The Myths of Standardized Tests: Why They Don't Tell You What You Think They Do - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Pundits, politicians, and business leaders continually make claims for what standardized tests can do, and those claims go largely unchallenged because they are in line with popular assumptions about what these tests can do, what the scores mean, and the psychology of human motivation. But what most of what these opinion leaders say-and the public believes-about standardized testing just isn't so. However, few members of the general public, not even concerned parents, have the time or the background to keep up with the latest findings of testing experts, psychometricians, and researchers. That's where The Myths of Standardized Tests comes in. In simple, accessible language, Harris, Smith, and Harris spell out the assumptions underlying standardized tests and point out what's true about them and what's just plain mythical. But they not only debunk common assumptions; they propose better ways to judge the success of our schools. They also offer readers suggestions for ways they can help reduce the burden of tests on their children.Appendixes offer readers contact information and suggestions for actions they can take to become part of the solution to the problem of overusing and misusing standardized tests.

نویسندگان: خلاصه: Propped upon a mountain of satin pillows amid rumpled bed linens,Helene Devernay surveyed his bronzed, muscular torso with anappreciative smile as Stephen David Elliott Westmoreland, Earl ofLangford, Baron of Ellingwood, Fifth Viscount Hargrove, ViscountAshbourne, shrugged into the frilled shirt he'd tossed over the foot of thebed last night.

Attached: The New Science of Adult Attachment and How It Can Help You Find – and Keep – Love - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Is there a science to love? In this groundbreaking book, psychiatrist and neuroscientist Amir Levine and Rachel S. F. Heller reveal how an understanding of attachment theory-the most advanced relationship science in existence today-can help us find and sustain love. Attachment theory forms the basis for many bestselling books on the parent/child relationship, but there has yet to be an accessible guide to what this fascinating science has to tell us about adult romantic relationships-until now. Attachment theory owes its inception to British psychologist and psychoanalyst John Bowlby, who in the 1950s examined the tremendous impact that our early relationships with our parents or caregivers has on the people we become. Also central to attachment theory is the discovery that our need to be in a close relationship with one or more individuals is embedded in our genes. In Attached, Levine and Heller trace how these evolutionary influences continue to shape who we are in our relationships today. According to attachment theory, every person behaves in relationships in one of three distinct ways: *ANXIOUS people are often preoccupied with their relationships and tend to worry about their partner's ability to love them back. *AVOIDANT people equate intimacy with a loss of independence and constantly try to minimize closeness. *SECURE people feel comfortable with intimacy and are usually warm and loving. Attached guides readers in determining what attachment style they and their mate (or potential mates) follow. It also offers readers a wealth of advice on how to navigate their relationships more wisely given their attachment style and that of their partner. An insightful look at the science behind love, Attached offers readers a road map for building stronger, more fulfilling connections.Author(s): Amir Levine, Rachel Heller Publisher: Penguin Group USA, Year: 2010 ISBN: 1585428485,9781585428489
Make Your Money Work for You: How to Grow Your Investment Dollars - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: We belong to the sandwich generation. Our children depend on us, as doour parents. For our children, we are seeing the price of a higher educationrising faster than the rate of inflation. For our parents, we are possiblylooking at hundreds of thousands of dollars in costs for treating majorillnesses they run the risk of contracting. The sandwich generation is beingchewed on at both ends.We are struggling to support ageing parents and pay university tuitionfees for our children. And this is probably the worst situation you can findyourself in — when you have to depend on others to support you in yourretirement years.In the future, you will either have enough money or you will not. If youdon’t, chances are that your neighbour living next door to you will. Peopleliving in Singapore and in Asia overall are getting wealthier and wealthier.In the year 2009, Singapore saw the highest growth in millionairehouseholds, up 35 per cent, followed by 33 per cent for Malaysia, 32 per centfor Slovakia, and 31 per cent for China (2010 Global Wealth Report by TheBoston Consulting Group). Singapore now has the highest concentration ofmillionaire households in the world. And Asia-Pacific, excluding Japan, isexpected to generate millionaires at nearly twice the global rate.It is horrible to retire when you don’t have enough money, and even worseif everyone around you has enough and you can’t even get by. That is whylearning how to invest is so important. For many people, it could make thedifference between a blissful retirement and a painful one.The investment environment has become very diverse in the last fewyears. We are seeing a rise in derivatives and currency trading by the public,commodity prices far outpacing stocks and bonds, hundreds of structuredproducts being made available at any one time and challenging marketconditions with inflation, lower real returns and a subprime crisis that istaking years to clean up. This is why for this third edition, we have added twoIntroductionnew chapters, revamped one chapter and expanded on previous chapters inthe hope of better describing what is out there.To succeed at investing, you need to keep two things in mind. First, youneed to keep abreast of what is happening in the investment markets. Onceyou are armed with the basic knowledge of investing (which we hope youwill gain from this book), knowing what is happening in the markets willbecome not only less strenuous but also an enjoyable pastime. Second,if you have never invested before, you need to take the plunge yourself.There is nothing like direct experience. Only when you handle your ownmoney will you be able to appreciate and understand fully the complexitiessurrounding the money markets. Finally, and most importantly, investingis your responsibility, not anyone else’s. It is neither the government’sresponsibility, nor that of your remisier or financial adviser’s.And when you do succeed, you will probably want to spare a thought forthe less fortunate. Social enterprise and socially responsible investing aretaking root in Singapore and around the world and not a moment too soonas income gaps around Asia have become particularly worrying. Singapore’sAmbassador, Tommy Koh, described “social inequity” as one of Asia’s threebiggest challenges, along with corruption and the environment.Despite headline hogging news about Asia’s booming economies, vastpockets of paralysing poverty remain. Dr. Ifzal Ali, Chief Economist of theAsian Development Bank, estimates that 42 per cent of Chinese live on theequivalent of less than $3 a day. In India, three-quarters of the population(more than 800 million people) survive each day on less than the cost of aStarbucks latte. All told, 60 per cent of all Asians still live in poverty.In the future, you will either have enough money or you will not. Thereare many exciting things you can do today to make sure that you will haveenough — and better still — be able then to spare time and money tohelp othe
“I clothed you in purple”: The Rabbinic king-parables of the third-century Roman Empire - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Abstract"I Clothed You in Purple"The Rabbinic King-Parables of the Third-Century Roman EmpireAlan AppelbaumMay 2007This is an analysis of comparisons the Rabbis made with kings, limited toRoman Palestine and to the ninety-year period beginning with the accession ofthe Emperor Septimius Severus in 193 C.E. and ending with the accession ofDiocletian. Based primarily on the original rabbinic texts, it also draws ontraditional Greek and Latin sources of imperial history and brings contemporarytheory to bear.A major part of the study re-examines current scholarly views aboutking-parables and finds them wanting - including the still prevalentpresupposition that "the king" is usually modeled on the emperor; the idea,recently renewed by Daniel Boyarin, that the Rabbis told the parables to makeTorah accessible to non-Rabbis; and, most important, the idea, championed byDavid Stern, that "the king," no matter what earthly ruler he is modeled on, isa stand-in for God. The study also supplements the ongoing work on king-parables being done by Clemens Thoma and his colleagues in Switzerland.As the study attends to the king-parables' form, structure, functions,settings and characters, it emphasizes the Rabbis' distinctive ideas about therelationship of humanity to God.Since the parables were produced by an intellectual elite in a countryoccupied by a world-empire, the study considers them as resistance literatureand explores what contemporary post-colonial theory and James C. Scott'swork concerning "hidden transcripts" may have to say about them.And since scholars of Roman history traditionally bemoan the paucity ofsources for the period, it poses the hypothesis that making comparisons to"kings" modeled on emperors or their representatives involves at least thinkingone knows something about them. The Rabbis' accounts of such "kings" notonly shed light on the attitudes of a group of literate citizens in a particulareastern province toward living, breathing emperors but also provideinformation about third-century imperial history, sometimes confirminggenerally accepted readings of traditional sources, sometimes supportingsources that have been regarded as questionable, and sometimes helping toresolve open issueآیا کتاب مورد نظر هنوز بر روی سایت قرار نگرفته است؟ جای نگرانی نیست! کافی است بر روی گزینه سفارش کتاب کلیک کرده و درخواست خود را ثبت کنید. در کمتر از چند ساعت کتاب شما را آماده خواهیم کرد.
