Описание: Elegant People is the definitive history of Weather Report, the premier fusion band of the 1970s and beyond. Founded in late 1970 by three stars of the jazz world--keyboardist Joe Zawinul, saxophonist Wayne Shorter, and bassist Miroslav Vitous--Weather Report went on to become the most unique and enduring jazz band of its era, with a style of music wholly its own. Now, on the fiftieth anniversary of Weather Report's first album release, comes Elegant People: A History of the Band Weather Report, the first book to tell the band's story in detail. Based on years of research and dozens of interviews with musicians, engineers, managers, and support personnel, Elegant People is written from an insider's perspective, describing Weather Report's transformation from a freewheeling, avant-garde jazz band whose ethos was We always solo and we never solo to a grooving juggernaut that combined elements of jazz, funk, Latin, and rhythm and blues. Fueled by Zawinul's hit tune Birdland and the charismatic stage presence of legendary electric bass player Jaco Pastorius, Weather Report took on the aura of rock stars. By the time Zawinul and Shorter mutually agreed to part ways in 1986, Weather Report had produced sixteen albums, a body of work that ranks among the most significant in jazz and continues to resonate with musicians and fans today.

Описание: A core position in the knowledge economy policies has been ascribed to higher education. This has enhanced the complexity of the environment in which higher education institutions operate. These deal with a wide range of pressures stemming from the State, the corporate world, the society at large and political interests, let alone those arising from the constituencies of higher education institutions (academics, students and non-academics). Institutions are expected to cope with these pressures by developing strategies involving quality management, performance and assessment, innovation, while reconfiguring the relationships between research, teaching and learning. The core business of higher education is being reshaped, challenging institutions' internal life to strategically respond to the reconfiguration of their role and missions. Topics such as governance and management, strategies and strategizing, budget control, performance and assessment, quality management, local and regional innovation come to the fore front. Under Pressure: Higher Education Institutions Coping with Multiple Challenges addresses these topics by convening approaches to the understanding of the interactions between policy drivers and institutional practices in governance, funding, performance indicators, regional innovation, strategy and strategizing, quality and management, and professionals.

Описание: Felix Martin awakes to what he has been waiting for all his life: for civilization to finally meet its destiny. A massive explosion in the west by what, no one knows. Multiple presumed nuclear attacks in almost every major city. An airborne zootoxic infection that has manipulated the very genetic physiology and physical characteristics of the infected. And an entire country experiencing true freedom for once in its existence. Felix navigates the ash-covered and quiet remnants of the United States, coming across friends and survivors along the way and derailing his futile attempts to find out for himself his fiancee`s disposition. To find out what happened to her. However, the universe has other plans. Gangs and false flags, the true evil of what a human being can do to another, are all distractions as he fights onward. Catching the attention of those responsible for the infection further guides him down a dark path. In his travels, he finds that what is coming is far greater than reality, ending up in Fort Monroe, Virginia, where all that remains is gathering just outside that old fort`s walls. He slowly lets himself ride that spiral as far as it goes, down into that maddening dark place only the fallen know. With secrets all about him and a new fascist remnant of the old government on the rise, he merely smears his face with a jagged grin all the while being chased by the queen of the feral and something far older than even the light. The Black Dog watches as Felix slowly loses himself when he finds out he is no longer just a man. He leaves his humanity behind because after all, monsters deserve to kill monsters. Regardless the trial or adversary, it wasn`t his world that ended.

Описание: Digital Information Design (DID) is een framework voor business informatiemanagement (BIM). En net als de vele andere frameworks is het bedoeld om te helpen bij het beschrijven van vraagstukken en het testen van mogelijke oplossingen. DID is anders dan de andere frameworks en managementmodellen; het is onafhankelijk van ieder ander framework of model en het pretendeert niet om het totale ontwerp van business informatie services te omvatten. DID legt relaties met andere nuttige en wijdverbreide best practices die specifiek zijn ontwikkeld om toe te passen in specifieke fasen van de ontwikkeling van business informatie services. Zoals tijdens de idee-vorming, conceptontwikkeling, specificatie, ontwerp, test, oplevering, servicemanagement en operatie, of bij het ontwikkelen en beheren van architectuurvraagstukken of bij de implementatie van hardware en software. DID is in eerste instantie bedoeld om te sturen op de kwaliteit van informatie, en om te zorgen dat deze informatie effectief wordt ingezet. Het DID framework is ontwikkeld om te helpen tijdens het ontwerp van business informatie services om te bepalen wat je nodig hebt, en wanneer je het nodig hebt. DID kan ook worden gebruikt als een handleiding bij het bepalen welke delen van andere bestaande frameworks nuttig kunnen zijn. DID is volledig onafhankelijk van andere frameworks (zoals BiSL and BiSL Next, waarvan DID is afgeleid). Je bepaalt zelf wat je wel of niet toepast. DID helpt om die keuze te onderbouwen en om vast te stellen wat de sterke en zwakke punten zijn van je aanpak.Het DID framework is gebaseerd op de meest gangbare concepten om kernelementen van een ontwerpaanpak te beschrijven (behoefte en waarde, missie en vermogen), de belangrijkste perspectieven op business informatie (business, informatie/data, services en technologie) en de dominante domeinen (governance, strategie, verbetering en operatie). Effectief sturen op deze aspecten draagt bij aan goed functionerende organisaties.DID helpt om precies dat te onderscheiden wat je nodig hebt om te realiseren dat jouw ontwerp van business informatie beantwoordt aan de wensen in jouw organisatie. DID kan volledig onafhankelijk van andere frameworks worden toegepast en het kan in alle lagen van de organisatie worden ingezet.

Along the way their car breaks down and they join up with a group of fellow misfits on the road. Embarking together in a van travelling the country they party and attempt to find themselves. And then something happens . . . Collects the original digital series YOUTH #1-#4.
