Описание: Extinction threatens Tropween's Giracians, masters of their alien galaxies millions of light-years from the ravaged thirty-first-century Earth. The scientifically advanced alien species has uncontested physical supremacy and dominates controls their massive patrilineal empire. These warrior conquerors' complete annihilations of every challenger to the giant time travelers' society were optimal for more than three hundred thousand Earth years. Until the Euseral virus attacked the ancient species' longevity lifecycle with its devastatingly slow, ten-thousand-year maturation, culminating with the eventual decimation of Girac female wombs. Their life. Tropween's alien ruler, Emperor Wflou, began his one-hundred-year quest, rejecting millions of candidates in his perseverance for his species' survival. Wflou sought nonshared DNA, discovering only the small furless human female of the primitive species met his stringent alien criteria. For Giracians, science now governs the consciously superior warrior culture, where only facts matter. Analytical, scientific, and logical principles guide the feline aliens dominant lifecycles. Only women's extradentary DNA and her fragile, unique anatomy can save both species. Igniting for Giracs the unknown, an impossibility. The factual collision of alien eroticism with humans' nonexistent emotions explodes Giracians' concept of true power, altering what Giracs have decreed impossible for the small-brain species.

Описание: Sackcloth and ashes were used in Old Testament Times as a symbol of mourning or repentance. When someone wanted to show a repentant heart He would often wear sackcloth and sit in ashes and put ashes on the top of his head. My poems are about a number of things that go along with this.

Описание: In Chances and Choices, Stephanie Pittssurveys the aims and impact of formative musical experiences, evaluating the extent to which music education of various kinds provides a foundation for lifelong involvement and interest in music. Pitts draws upon rich qualitative data from her own extensive original study of over 100 adults with an active interest in music in the UK and Italy to address several key themes in the study of music education. Intertwined with discussion of topics such as music education policy and the role that music teachers and other role models play in nurturing musicians are first person 'interludes' that showcase the stories and voices of the research participants as they reflect upon the influences and opportunities that shaped their musical life histories. Pitts' analysis adds valuable context to these stories, illuminating the historical and contemporary debates about music education and proposing ways in which school music might better prepare young people for continued participation in music throughout their lives. A companion website contains Pitts' data sets and analytical frameworks; the website also features an interactive database through which readers can share their own musical life histories and search others that have been contributed there. Shedding new light on the long-term effects of music education, Chances and Choices is an important resource to understand how we can encourage lasting engagement with music and other cultural activities in every individual.

Latinas Pathways to STEM: Exploring Contextual Mitigating Factors presents transnational case studies of Latinas and Mexicanas pursuing a STEM degree/career from the United States (Georgia, New York, Texas) and M?xico. The authors underscore that the experiences of the participants highlighted in this book provide insights into how to support successful Latinas and Mexicanas in STEM career pipelines and pathways. In doing so, the authors address the need for a set of approaches to STEM education policy that acknowledges that institutionalized pipelines often create replication by funding intervention programs that attempt to sterilize context by identifying variables and ignoring the associated contextual mitigating factors (CMFs). Researchers and funders of STEM intervention efforts can learn from the analysis of these case studies that successful Latinas and Mexicanas developed tactical understanding, which reinforced their identity and resisted how they were positioned by negative CMFs, reaffirming their aspirations and successes in STEM. Education graduate students, research methodologists, policy makers, and practitioners will find CMF analysis a useful methodological tool to interrogate how sociocultural factors position designated underrepresented people in STEM pipelines and pathways. Education policies that advocate for the existence and maintenance of pipelines that increase underrepresented Latinas and Mexicanas in STEM are important but are often crafted with blind spots that leave out how context mitigates policy especially at the individual level.

A Globe and Mail Top 100 Selection Longlisted, 2021 National Business Book Award A CBC New Brunswick Book List Selection
As tech investors the world over search for elusive unicorns (start-ups valued at over $1 billion), acclaimed business journalist Gordon Pitts asks whether there can be a place for high-tech innovation and unicorn-like value creation outside of major urban centres, whether in Atlantic Canada, rust-belt New York, or Northern Ontario.
Journeying back to the origins of Radian6 and Q1 Labs -- two New Brunswick companies that sold for a combined $1 billion -- in the basements and offices of a group of geeks and dreamers, Pitts tells a story of two remarkable companies and the legacies that continue to this day. But theirs was not a simple tale of overnight success; there were sellouts and firings, comebacks and vindication, and still unfulfilled promise.
This is a story of high-tech value creation far from Silicon Valley, a story of the mythical unicorn in the woods. Are the stories of Radian6 and Q1 Labs outliers, rogue datapoints that should be discarded, or the foundation for a new knowledge economy outside of the mainstream?

A MAN ATTEMPTING AN ESCAPE FROM A VIOLENT PAST
A decade of illegal underground fights drives Finneus Gentry to quit the outlawed circuit after a last battle in a deserted Texas warehouse and seeks to lose himself in the mountains of Montana. Scarred inside as well as out, he hopes to work honest hands rather than outlaw fists. Employed to operate "Buzz" Buzzard's logging equipment, Finn slowly builds new skills and lasting ties with the owner old enough to be his grandfather.
Finn's best intentions are tested when men bent on human trafficking try to beat a woman into submission. The bullies reawaken combat arts to spoil plans to abduct Rian Tunny. Learning Rian has nothing and nowhere to go, Buzz and his wife Elizabeth take the young woman in and help her find work. Rian and Finneus become closer after he's confronted by a competitor he once faced on the Texas fight circuit.

Описание: One of many lessons gleaned from COVID-19 is that our healthcare ecosystem can accomplish extraordinary feats, and quickly, when the individual components work together. Imagine the innovation potential that awaits patients if such large-scale collaboration occurred with more regularity? For over a decade, Peter Pitts has offered incisive commentary on this very question. The articles featured in this book aim to confront conflicting perspectives on subjects ranging from healthcare economics and patient education, to development roadblocks and friction between payers, providers, manufacturers, and regulators. The Value Equation: A Journey Through the Innovation Ecosystem in the Time of Covid is necessary reading for anyone interested in charting a new, urgent path forward for patient-centric healthcare innovation.
