نویسندگان: Joanne Eglash خلاصه: Just a little over five years ago, Amazon.com existed only in its creator's vision. Access to the Internet highway was often a bumpy ride, and the typical retail entrepreneur placed "location, location, location" high on the list of essentials for success. Welcome to the brave new Webbed World! Amazon.com is viewed as one of the most stellar successes in the Internet sky. Surfing the Web has become just as easy and fasts—and in some cases, a heck of a lot more educational, entertaining, and exciting—as TV channel surfing. More and more entrepreneurs these days regard a great domain name as infinitely more valuable than the location of their business. The Internet has become a force to be reckoned with in the business world—and woe unto you if that force is not with you. Consider the statistics. As reported in the marketing resource Web site eMarketer (emarketer.com), recent researchers have shown that "purchases on the Net are quickly catching up with shopping." One study indicated a more than 40 percent increase from 1998 to 1999 of PCs involved in e-commerce, amounting to 37 million PCs. In addition, eMarketer reported that "the number of computers used to make online purchases jumped 72 percent, which is double the increase of those who went online just to shop." Pretty impressive. The pervasive and persuasive power of the Internet literally struck home with me when my mother (until recently, a self-described "computerphobic illiterate") became an Internet addict. It happened so insidiously. In early March, she was debating acquiring a computer "with one of those connections so I can e-mail my cousin, because she got a computer." By mid-May, Mom was clicking off e-mail messages right and left, in between hopping from a Web site to a newsgroup to a chat room

That's Funny You Don't Look Like A Teacher!: Interrogating Images, Identity, And Popular Culture (World of Childhood & Adolescence) - PDF
نویسندگان: Sandra J. Weber خلاصه: Teachers are figures of such impossible familiarity that they are apt to vanish beneath the general and the particular disparagements such taken-for-granted phenomena may attract to themselves. For many of us who teach, and who have spent much of our lives in schools and amongst teachers, it is their flesh and blood and sweat that haunt us, their actual, historical existence and the work they do with children in classrooms. Yet that reality is shaped and shadowed by all those others: by the transformations performed on teachers by memory and myth, by public obloquy and popular culture and by all the fantasies and fictions which have constructed childhoods for us, and which have then allowed us to scrutinize and revisit the contradictions that those fictions embody. And what is always a surprise at this end of the twentieth century is how many of those fictions turn out to be ones we’ve not just found or made for ourselves, but ones which we share, through film and television and other media, with most of the human race, however vast all the other differences between us may be. I was always a little hurt, I think, as a young teacher, when in drama lessons with my eleven-year-olds, their warm-up actings-out—of policemen and bicycles and puppets and, yes, of teachers—produced (and without a single exception) a finger-wagging harridan of quite exceptional vindictiveness. Where, I wondered, had they come upon the model for such a teacher? Surely, it couldn’t be…? Sandra Weber and Claudia Mitchell from Canada, which will always be the land of Ann of Green Gables and of Avonlea to me, have written a marvellously illuminating book which undertakes, amongst other things, to reassure me. Much more than that, it unpicks and displays the anomalous links between all our classroom realities and the curious and constant and invariably ambiguous recurrence of teachers within a whole range of popular cultural forms. The book’s focus is, as the authors put it, on ‘the ways that certain images persist over time, and the significance of the continuity of these popular culture images to our understanding of the space that teachers occupy in the real and imagined lives of children and their teachers.

Gastric Bypass Surgery: Everything You Need to Know to Make an Informed Decision - PDF
نویسندگان: Mary McGowan خلاصه: You have picked up this book because you want to lose weight. You’ve tried every weight loss program there is, and, as with most overweight people, while some of those programs have worked for a while, in the end the weight has always come back. You want something permanent. Weight loss surgery is a daunting decision, and a bit fright- ening, too, but it is undoubtedly the most effective approach to long-term enduring weight loss. As you consider weight loss surgery, you will have many questions. In my practice as a physician who treats people with obesity-related illnesses, I have helped many people navigate the sea of scientific jargon and bewildering proce- dures that this process entails. Most of my patients have the same questions. This book will give you the answers you need to make the right decision. But before you consider weight loss surgery, there are two questions you need to ask yourself: 1. Are you, in fact, a candidate for such a procedure?

The Million Dollar Mindset: How to Harness Your Internal Force to Live the Lifestyle You Deserve - PDF
نویسندگان: James Arthur Ray خلاصه: you and i are spiritual beings. any scientist or physicist will tell you that you and i are made up of about 90% space. now we can also call that spirit. if we’re truly illumined, we know that spirit moves in and through everything. as a result, when chardin says we are spiritual beings having a physical experience, what he is stating from an illu- mined standpoint is the idea that you and i are ultimately spirit. We manifest into form, but everything is spirit. the things that you want in your life right now already exist. What we must do is operate from a higher level of consciousness to create at a lower physical potential. now most people do just the opposite, don’t they? Most people look at their physi- cal results and they say, “this is who i am.” you must create a spiritual prototype… a spiritual prototype of what it is that you want in your life from an illuminated mindset and understanding. and realize that the moment you get that clearly in your mind, you have it. the spiritual prototype is every bit as “real” the chair you’re sitting on. through discipline, illumination and understanding, we must tap into and harness the spiritual plane of existence.

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.

The Scooter Book: Everything you need to know about owning, enjoying and maintaining your scooter - PDF
نویسندگان: Alan Seeley خلاصه: In all the solemn statements by self-important politicians and newspaper columnists about a coming war against Iraq, and even in the troubled comments by some who are opposed to the war, there is something missing. The talk is about strate- gy and tactics and geopolitics, and personalities. It is about air war and ground war, about alliances and weapons of mass destruction, and arms inspections, about oil and natural gas, about nation-building and “regime change.” What is missing is what an American war on Iraq will do to tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of ordinary human beings who are not concerned with geopolitics and military strategy, and who just want their children to live, to grow up. They are not concerned with “national security” but with personal security, with food and shelter and medical care and peace. I am speaking of those Iraqis and those Americans who will, with absolute certainty, die in such a war, or lose arms or legs, or be blinded. Or they will be stricken with some strange and agonizing sickness, which will lead to their bringing deformed children into the world (as happened to families in Vietnam, in Iraq, and also in the United States). True, there has been some discussion of American casu- alties resulting from a land invasion of Iraq. But, as always when the strategists discuss this, the question is not about the wounded and dead as human beings, but about what number of American casualties would result in public withdrawal of support for the war, and what effect this would have on the upcoming elections for Congress and the presidency.
