Fake reviews on Amazon. Punk rock angels. YouTube memorials. Anarchists, misfits, immigrants, addicts, juvenile detention communes. Religious testimonies via web cam, the nature of digital obituaries, depression salesmen. Ambushing the Void explores the margins of 21st century America, presenting characters confronting new worlds, new technologies, and new social structures while attempting to retain their identities and formative worldviews. Despite the impersonal technological and corporate apparatus of the contemporary world, they strive to re-imagine and discover how empathy, connection, relationships, and meaning can be found in our increasingly mechanized and atomized culture. These quirky, off-beat stories (with a tinge of the weird and disturbing) are thought-provoking takes on the post-modern search for meaning.

Описание: 106 Tasty & Nourishing Vegan Keto Recipes A ketogenic diet is low in carbohydrates and high fat. Usually, most of this fat will be derived from animal products. On the other hand, veganism is an ideology based on the premise that all living creatures, including animals, should be respected, and that needlessly killing and consuming animals breaches this premise. With a bit of planning, a vegan or ketogenic diet may not be difficult to follow by themselves. However, a vegan AND ketogenic diet

In the middle of two wars, including one that they didn't want and didn't ask for, the Psionics of ARC struggle to turn back the Eaters. The Institute is still waiting for an opportunity to regain control of the city, but right now there are more pressing concerns. Outside the Wall, chaos reigns, and the slums are overrun. Citizens and dwells alike are panicked and rioting. Cassandra hides in Epsilon 17's body, convincing those closest to her that everything is normal as she pieces together plans to escape in the confusion.
But when the Eaters take her, Thea manages to regain control. The tables have turned. Now she has to pretend to be Cassandra to survive--but fortunately her time in the Institute prepared her well. If she tries to flee, she'll be killed, but if she stays with the cannibal hordes she's bound to be discovered. Escape seems impossible, but help--and friendship--comes from an unlikely source.
Toby and Serena have their hands full fighting the invading Eaters and trying to track down leads on where Thea could be. Cut off from his twin, Toby's relationships with ARC deepen and grow, but he's consumed by his guilt and his need to find Thea.
The cannibal threat looms ever closer, and with one of their best weapons either lost or disabled, ARC has to decide what their priorities are. Should they try to kill her, or save her?

Aristotle once said: "some animals are cunning and evil-disposed...some are gentle and easily tamed...some kinds of animals burrow...some animals are nocturnal...others use the hours of daylight..." In this little collection of animal stories, you will find animals that fit these descriptions and others that have characteristics and personalities that fit no particular category. These are animals going about the business of being animals, dealing with their daily lives, even though it may look a bit cock-eyed to the humans around them. One story may touch your heart, while another may leave you in awe...one or more may inspire or tug at the corners of your mouth but hopefully all will entertain.

Описание: The Tennessee Tech Tuba Ensemble (TTTE) is one of the most successful performing collegiate ensembles in history, with an enviable record of 25 recording projects, seven Carnegie Hall appearances, two World's Fairs performances, numerous national and international conference engagements, and a performance history in venues like Preservation Hall in New Orleans, the Spoleto Festival in Charleston, and the Kennedy Center in Washington. The Tennessee Tech Tuba Ensemble and R. Winston Morris: A 40th Anniversary Retrospective lists all of these events and more. It tells how Morris founded an ensemble comprised only of tubas and euphoniums (the "underdogs" of the orchestra) and catapulted it to international recognition, establishing and defining the standards for tuba ensemble performance practices and creating a monumental influence on both the tuba and music education throughout the world. The book provides a biography of Morris that includes the influences that led to the development of the TTTE, and it describes the early years of the ensemble and its development as one of the most recognizable groups of its kind. Several lists of reference information specific to Morris and the group-and general to tuba and euphonium music-are offered. Details about concerts, performances, activities, and recordings of the ensemble are presented, as well as recordings, awards, honors, and publications by Morris. Former members of the group are listed and pictured in more than 85 photos comprising a photographic history. Winston and the TTTE are responsible for the composition and arrangement of more music for the tuba than any other single source, and a comprehensive list of those works is supplied here.

Описание: Marilyn McAdams Sibley`s study of George W. Brackenridge is the first biography of an important and, for his time, unusual Texan. It presents new material concerning the Mexican cotton trade during the Civil War, on the beginnings of banking in Texas, and on higher education in Texas.
In the fast-moving pace of the world in which we now live, oftentimes we find ourselves overwhelmed with troubles, trials, sorrow, and grief. A feeling of desperation to overcome these situations can lead us in the wrong direction.
We all have experienced or seen that the world can be a cold, cruel place, and if we are trying to make it on our own, we are destined to fail.
The Light in the Dark is a heartfelt, soul-wrenching collection of poetry filled with hope, love, a promise for eternity sublime, and the poignancy of the pain and detrimental effects that can be inflicted by society. These poems touch on a vast array of emotions, situations and environmental conditions that can easily influence lives and their outcomes. Some are based on personal experiences, some on personal observations.
Each poem, while bringing to point the harsh, dark realities we are all faced with, consistently brings to light the answer for all our conflicts and turmoil, all our debilitating pain, grief and sorrow, all our struggles and battles, all our triumphs and failures, yes, all our needs. Indeed, the answer to all things is Jesus Christ, our Lord, the Conqueror of conflict, counselor of confusion, Creator of all things, the Prince of Peace, the way-maker regardless of your situation.

All Math Words Dictionary is designed for students of pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, and intermediate algebra. It is designed using the four 'C's of math writing:
Concise: Definitions are compact, yet understandable.
Complete: All words and phrases of interest to targeted students are included, plus a few just beyond the scope of the target classes. Tables of symbols and notation, formulas, and units of measurement, plus lists of properties of objects give the student all the information needed to weld their understanding of the concepts and decipher many problems.
Correct: The definitions have been thoroughly reviewed for mathematical and literary correctness.
Comprehensible: The definitions are written to be understood by targeted students. Abundant illustrations aid in understanding.
One of the difficulties many students experience in learning math skills has to do with the fact that an entire language, both spoken and written, has grown up around math. Students that acquire that language are successful in math studies. Students that do not acquire that language have serious problems with mathematics. This dictionary is designed to aid in the acquisition of the language of math.
This dictionary has:
over 3000 entries
more than 140 notations defined
in excess of 790 illustrations
IPA pronunciation guide
greater than 1400 formulas, equations, definitions, examples, identities and expressions.
While teaching high school math, the author, David E. McAdams, noted that some students did not understand even simple math statements, such as "This equation is determinate." Those students who had not acquired a basic math vocabulary were left behind, becoming frustrated and mentally dropping out of class. Mr. McAdams quickly added vocabulary exercises to his classroom teaching, but found that there were no adequate resources for vocabulary acquisition. All of the online math dictionaries and encyclopedias were either woefully incomplete, or written at a college graduate level.
The author began by creating a vocabulary resource for his students, using as a guide the vocabulary actually used in the textbooks the students were using. The list of words swiftly grew, and the task of preparing these resources quickly grew beyond what a full-time teacher could accomplish with all the other activities important to teaching.
Mr. McAdams was amazed at the enormous size of the math vocabulary that students must gain to be fluent in math. He took the development of this important resource seriously, and after devoting nine years to its development, has created All Math Words Dictionary. The list of words and phrases to be defined was collected from various textbooks in use in the United States and United Kingdom. Each of these words was carefully researched to find all of the ways the word was used in math classes for pre-algebra, beginning algebra, geometry and intermediate algebra. The definitions were carefully crafted and critically explored to meet the goals of concise, complete, correct and comprehensible. Usefulness of these definitions for non-native English speakers was considered and pronunciation was developed using the IPA. Knowing that a picture sometimes is worth a thousand words, Mr. McAdams added abundant illustrations to assist students in placing words in a visual context.
The result of this extensive effort is All Math Words Dictionary, an important tool for math teachers.
Автор: McAdams Charity Название: Poe and the Idea of Music: Failure, Transcendence, and Dark Romanticism ISBN: 1611462045 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781611462043 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 159400.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Edgar Allan Poe often set the scenes of his stories and poems with music: angels have the heartstrings of lutes, spirits dance, and women speak with melodic voices. These musical ideas appear to mimic the ways other authors, particularly Romanticists, used music in their works to represent a spiritual ideal artistic realm. Music brought forth the otherworldly, and spoke to the possible transcendence of the human spirit. Yet, Poe's music differs from these Romantic notions in ways that, although not immediately perceptible in each individual instance, cohere to invert Romantic idealism. For Poe, artistic transcendence is impossible, the metaphysical realm is unreachable, and humans cannot perceive anything but their own failure of spirit. In this book, I show how we can look at Poe's poems and stories on the whole to discover this, and in doing so, unpack some of Poe's mysticism along the way.
