''Read you loud and clear!'': the story of NASA'S spaceflight tracking and data network - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Sunny Tsiao, National Aeronautics and Space Administration خلاصه: Regardless of how sophisticated it may be, no spacecraft is of any value unless it can be tracked accurately to determine where it is and how it is performing.At the height of the space race, 6,000 men and women operated NASA’s Spaceflight Tracking and Data Network at some two dozen locations across five continents. This network, known as the STDN, began its operation by tracking Sputnik 1, the world’s first artificial satellite that was launched into space by the former Soviet Union. Over the next 40 years, the network was destined to play a crucial role on every near-Earth space mission that NASA flew. Whether it was receiving the first television images from space, tracking Apollo astronauts to the Moon and back, or data acquiring for Earth science, the STDN was that intricate network behind the scenes making the missions possible. Some called it the “Invisible Network,” a hallmark of which was that no NASA mission has ever been compromised due to a network failure.Read You Loud and Clear! is a historical account of the STDN, starting with its formation in the late 1950s to what it is today in the first decade of the twenty-first century. It traces the roots of the tracking network from its beginnings at the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico to the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS) space-based constellation of today. The story spans the early days of satellite tracking using the Minitrack Network, through the expansion of the Satellite Tracking And Data Acquisition Network (STADAN) and the Manned Space Flight Network (MSFN), and finally, to the Space and Ground Networks of today.Written from a non-technical perspective, the author has translated a highly technical subject into historical accounts told within the framework of the U.S. space program. These accounts tell how international goodwill and foreign cooperation were crucial to the operation of the network and why the space agency chose to build the STDN the way it did. More than anything else, the story of NASA’s STDN is about the “unsung heroes of the space program.”

نویسندگان: Erik Banks خلاصه: Книга Working the Street: What You Need to Know About Life on Wall Street Working the Street: What You Need to Know About Life on Wall StreetКниги Экономика Автор: Erik Banks Год издания: 2004 Формат: pdf Издат.:Palgrave Macmillan Страниц: 176 Размер: 1,5 Мб ISBN: 1403963770 Язык: Английский0 (голосов: 0) Оценка:Written by a former Managing Director at Merrill Lynch, Working the Street is the resource for readers hoping to build a successful career on Wall Street. It is not a "how-to" career book or a job guide. It doesn't tell the reader who to contact for a job or what classes to take to prepare for a career in banking, and it is not a book about the technical "nuts and bolts" of Wall Street. What this book does tell the reader is about some of the "ins and outs" of Wall Street; about how things really work in the banking world; about some of the speed bumps to watch out for and some of the "low hanging fruit" that is ripe for the picking, from getting in the door and developing positive habits, to getting a bonus and handling retirement. In order to really succeed, it is necessary to know as much as possible about how Wall Street really works. Working the Street goes a long way in providing exactly that.

The 30-Minute Celebrity Makeover Miracle: Achieve the Body You've Always Wanted - PDF
نویسندگان: Steve Zim, Steve Steinberg خلاصه: Time—there’s never enough of it. Most of us already have too much to do. We’ve gone beyond just burning the candle at both ends; our candles are fully engulfed in flames. Work, kids, school, shopping, cleaning.You get the picture. Sadly, when time gets tight, the first thing we sacrifice is taking proper care of ourselves. We try to get by on less sleep, we skip meals, and we cut back on the time we spend at the gym. As a trainer, the two biggest questions I get are “Can I really change my body if I only have thirty minutes to work out?” and “Should I be doing cardio or lifting weights?” Happily, I know the answers to these questions. My job is to transform bodies. If there’s one thing I know, it’s makeovers. I’ve done them on the Weekend Today show, Access Hollywood, Entertainment Tonight, VH1, and the USA Network, to name just a few places. What makes these makeovers unlike the ones you see in magazines is that they are done on video, not in still pictures. Pictures can be studied and cho- sen to show off the model at his or her best. Unflattering shots end up in the trash, or they get touched up until they’re more flattering. Video, on the other hand, doesn’t lie. What you see is what you get

Someone Will Make Money on Your Funds - Why Not You: A Better Way to Pick Mutual and Exchange-Traded Funds - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Gary L. Gastineau خلاصه: T o make the objective of this book as clear as possible, consider two very different investors, both in their late twenties. The first investor, Joe, subscribes to several financial publications. He spends an hour or two a month working on and thinking about his financial plan and his portfo- lio. He examines his account statements carefully. He reads the periodic reports from each fund he owns. Joe has also read this book. After he finished reading, Joe sold several high-cost equity funds he had been carrying in his 401(k) plan account and replaced them with a large position in a low-cost fixed-income fund and a smaller position in a U.S. total market index fund. He used most of the money market bal- ance in his personal brokerage account to buy some tax-efficient equity exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Joe used the free retirement planning software that comes with his 401(k) plan to get a clearer picture of what his financial situation might look like after retirement. He has made an ap- pointment with a financial planner to ask some specific questions. Joe is more comfortable with his financial position and his understanding of his investment risks and opportunities than he has ever been before. He is also convinced that he has improved the annual return on his portfolio by at least 2 percent. The second investor, Pete, has a few stocks in his personal brokerage account. He bought them on enthusiastic recommendations from friends, but they have performed badly. Most of the assets in his brokerage ac- count are in a low-yielding money market fund. When he joined his em- ployer’s 401(k) plan, he signed up to put 50 percent of his payroll deductions into an intermediate-term bond fund and 50 percent into a large-cap equity fund. Pete puts his unopened 401(k) statements in a drawer, hoping the fund will grow to take care of him in retirement. He has not taken an inventory of his financial assets and liabilities since he filled out a mortgage application five years ago. He does not know the ex- pense ratios or the performance of the funds he owns in his 401(k) ac- count. Pete has not read this book.
