Описание: New York City holds a special place in the hearts of its residents, but also in the imaginations of people from around the world. From the Statue of Liberty, to the Empire State Building, to the Brooklyn Bridge, New York's landmarks are as familiar to most of us as our own backyards. Its streets and neighborhoods have become a shorthand for ideas like luxury (Park Avenue, Fifth Avenue), excellence in performance (Broadway, Carnegie Hall), and even an artistic/creative lifestyle (Soho). In this book, Peter Alessandria presents his favorite New York images, including his own personal photography and images created by six top shooters who have made their names on today's most popular photo-sharing site, Instagram. Packed with bold, colorful, inventive images, this book provides a fresh look at New York's classic beauty and ever-evolving character

Описание: Save time and hundreds of dollars by learning how to repair and overhaul your car's brakes.
There are many automotive tasks that are best left to qualified and certified professionals when considering repairing your automobile. There are also many tasks that can be tackled by the weekend do-it-yourselfer with a decent level of instruction. While just about any system repair or overhaul on more modern cars has gotten more complex over time, brake diagnosis and repair is still well within reach for the home mechanic with a reasonable set of hand tools.
In Brake Repair: How to Diagnose, Fix, or Replace Your Car's Brakes: Step-By-Step, ASE technician and professional instructor Steven Cartwright takes you through the entire process of servicing your car's brakes to like-new condition. Ten informative chapters cover everything you will need to know, including chapters on brake history, an overview of function, types of brakes, power assist, troubleshooting, electronic controls such as ABS, and finally, a complete chapter showing you how to do an entire brake job in step-by-step color photos.
With traditional dealership labor rates hovering around $125 per hour these days, it is easy for a standard four-wheel disc brake job to cost close to $1,000 when all is said and done. With the help of this book, you will be able to competently and confidently complete the task in similar fashion for less than half the cost, paying for this book many times over the very first time you use it. Add this valuable tool to your library today.

Описание: Spy-Fi Culture with a License to Kill From Sean Connery to Daniel Craig, James Bond is the highest-grossing movie franchise of all time. Out-grossing Star Wars, Harry Potter, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the world's most iconic and international secret agent has a shelf life of almost six decades, from Dr. No to Spectre. As nuclear missile threats are replaced by a series of subtler threats in a globalized and digital world, Bond is with us still. In The Science of James Bond, we recognize the Bond franchise as a unique genre: spy-fi. A genre of film and fiction that fuses spy fiction with science fiction. We look at Bond's obsessions with super-villains, the future, and world domination or destruction. And we take a peek under the hood of trends in science and tech, often in the form of gadgets and spy devices in chapters such as:
Goldfinger: Man Has Achieved Miracles in All Fields but Crime
You Only Live Twice: The Race to Conquer Space
Live and Let Die: Full Throttle: Bond and the Car
Skyfall: The Science of Cyberterrorism
And more
This is the only James Bond companion that looks at the film and fiction in such a spy-fi way, taking in weapon wizards, the chemistry of death, threads of nuclear paranoia, and Bond baddies' obsession with the master race

Alzheimer's is an equal opportunity disease. No amount of power walking or leafy vegetables or crossword puzzles has proven to prevent it. Just as none of our protests, wishful thinking, or denial keeps it at bay, or changes its trajectory. I'm pretty sure of this because I lost my father to Alzheimer's disease--over and over again.
Our family "lived" with the disease for over ten years while my sisters and I did our utmost to accommodate the disease. To lessen its impact on our father who was suffering from the disease, and our mother who preferred not to acknowledge it.
There were weeks or months when the disease seemed to plateau and few changes occurred. And then there were weeks when every day revealed some decline--whether subtle or substantial--which we pretty much expected, but for which we were totally unprepared. Knowledge of the disease and its progression was merely academic, and neither comforting nor taken in stride as the disease steadily wreaked its havoc.
It's The Process (and yes, it merits capitalization) into which our family was thrust and to which we unwittingly obeyed that I feel compelled to share with others. The Process was a force onto itself that underlay our family trying arrangement after arrangement to protect our parents, respect their wishes, and remain true to ourselves.
If I, for one had known from the beginning that doing the right thing for our parents was a process of sound decision-making, information gathering, good intentions, gut instincts, and balancing logic with emotion, I would have suffered far less consternation and self-doubt.
Was The Process otherworldly? Or was it the natural outcome of four daughters working together in the best way and for the best reasons to ensure their parents' last years were becoming of the lives they lived?
