Описание:

Requiem for Warriors is a tribute to three of author Norman Weissmans high school classmates who died in a combat during World war II. Weissman, a Navy pilot during the war, portrays his friends lives and deaths in the good war with remarkable fidelity to who they were as individuals and how and where they died, before shifting to a tale about how several generations of fictional warriors were affected by this war. These warriors German, French, and English--warriors for hire who sacrificed their souls fighting wars to protect the colonial interests of declining European powers against native populations seeking freedom in the aftermath of World War II and beyond. Weissman brings his considerable knowledge of history to the story of their struggle to find meaning, if not redemption, for their own horrific actions in the name of patriotism and ideologies that have led nations to self-destruction. What makes this story so compelling is that all of these warriors, including the good guys, were guilty of crimes against humanity, prompted by beliefs justifying their inhumane actions. Requiem is about the pity of war, about how war corrupts a nations values of right and wrong, creating societies where conformity becomes a virtue, dissent a crime. Everyone, says one lover of a warrior from an enemy country fights their own war. We are all warriors. The underlying question that haunts Weissmans tale is: Can a good man do evil? We are beginning to find an answer to this question as we begin to question the values of the very founders who uniquely defined the idea of America. Recognizing our own complicity in inhuman actions is vital to our survival as a moral and just society This is the admonition of History; it is the heart and soul of Weissmans Requiem.

Описание: Symbiosis in nature is the interaction between two distinct species looking to forge closer long-term relationships. There are three types of interactions; "Mutualism" (honey bees and flowers for example, where both species benefit), "Commensalism" (A bird`s nest on a tree for example, where one species benefits whilst the other is not harmed) and "Parasitism" (humans and mosquitoes for example, where one species benefits and the other is harmed). Symbiotic, human to human interactions seek to form closer long-term relationships based on "Mutualism", the type of interaction where there is mutual benefit. In the business context, symbiosis happens when key stakeholders collaborate as true partners (not adversaries) for mutual benefit. Assets exist to provide value to the organization and its stakeholders. The hotel asset owner through his representative interacts with the hotel brand operator to create value; find improvements, find opportunities. This book primarily looks at hospitality management, key relationships and the complex operational dynamics between two key stakeholders; hotel asset owners and their branded hotel operators focusing on five key principles and a symbiotic leadership approach as a key enabler. There is a lot of room for improvement and it is this crucial relationship that is examined. This guidebook has been written for hotel brand operators, hotel asset owners and their representatives who are managing, overseeing or monitoring a business venture for themselves or on behalf of others. It is also a valuable guide for students of hospitality as well as the curious layman - anyone who has stayed in a hotel.

Lenticular Imaging: Theory and Practice

Описание:

This book treats comprehensively the visual and the optical aspects of lenticular imaging. The theoretical discussion is supplemented by numerous examples and figures which explain and illustrate the underlying principles, to make the book accessible and useful for scholars, practitioners, and graphical artists. However, this book is not a practical guide for making lenticular pictures.
The most striking capability of lenticular pictures is the display of depth. 3D lenticular pictures can be enjoyed without any visual aids, and are viewable from within a comfortably large volume. Within this volume, the picture displays change of perspective according to the viewing angle and shows the object with the correct geometry. With proper design, the changes in perspective can be smooth and continuous. These characteristics create a compelling virtual reality illusion, like the effect of holograms.
The tradeoff between the amount of displayed depth and the visual quality is established and discussed. The overall resolution of the picture determines this compromise. Basic mechanisms affecting the overall resolution are optical aberrations and print characteristics. For digital print, it is suggested that if lenticular sheets are adjusted to fit the printer characteristics, the overall resolution may be significantly improved.
The unique optical properties of lenticules and lenticular sheets are crucial for the understanding of lenticular imaging, and, as such, they receive much attention in the book. The optical mechanism of a lenticular picture is explained using simplified, yet accurate models based on classical optical imaging theory. The more advanced subjects of optical resolution and distortions are treated numerically, using ray-tracing methods. The results of this study are presented here for the first time and are used to explain the visual features of lenticular pictures. They are also important for future research and development.
Numerous other topics are essential for understanding and using lenticular imaging. These topics include calibration of lenticular sheets, content preparation for 3D pictures, and viewing space design. All these issues are treated and presented in detail, including many practical examples.
Electronic display systems underwent rapid evolution in recent fifty years. From early bulky, monochrome, and distorted CRT displays, modern flat-panel displays feature vibrant color and perfect geometry. The resolution, contrast, and brightness reached the highest standards of market demands. Perhaps the last challenge remaining to be conquered by display engineers is the creation of a high-quality electronic 3D display that is viewable without any aids, like a lenticular picture. This challenge attracted much attention, but, despite vast efforts, it is still beyond reach.
One of the most popular approaches to making an electronic 3D display is based on lenticular imaging. A separate chapter is devoted to the discussion of this technology. Although electronic and printed displays differ profoundly, the methodology of printed pictures can be used for the study and analysis of electronic lenticular displays, although with several modifications. The book outlines this application, to allow future study and development of such displays benefit from the research presented in this book.

Описание: Examines such central critical thinking topics as informal fallacies, the difference between validity and truth, basic formal propositional logic, and how to extract arguments from texts. Turetzky aims to prevent confusion by explaining a number of important distinctions, including propositions vs. propositional attitudes, propositions vs. states of affairs, and logic vs. rhetoric vs. psychology.

Описание: From award-winning author Elissa Brent Weissman comes a collection of quirky, smart, and vulnerable childhood works by some of today's foremost children's authors and illustrators--revealing young talent, the storytellers they would one day become, and the creativity they inspire today.

Everyone's story begins somewhere...

For Linda Sue Park, it was a trip to the ocean, a brand-new typewriter, and a little creative license.
For Jarrett J. Krosoczka, it was a third grade writing assignment that ignited a creative fire in a kid who liked to draw.
For Kwame Alexander, it was a loving poem composed for Mother's Day--and perfected through draft after discarded draft.
For others, it was a teacher, a parent, a beloved book, a word of encouragement. It was trying, and failing, and trying again. It was a love of words, and pictures, and stories.

Your story is beginning, too. Where will it go?

Описание: When Ash gets kicked off her school's news show, she becomes a renegade reporter--and makes a big discovery about technology and her fellow students' privacy.

Ash and her friends are reporters. They were ready to lead their school news show, The News at Nine, sponsored by Van Ness Media, when an unfortunate incident involving a dancing teacher, an irresponsibly reported story, and a viral video got them kicked off the crew. So Ash, Maya, and Brielle decide to start their own news show, The Underground News. And soon they stumble on a big lead: Van Ness Media, the educational company that provides their school's software, has been gathering data from all the kids at school. Their drawings, their journals, even their movements are being recorded and cataloged by Van Ness Media. But why? Ash and her friends are determined to learn the truth and report it.
