A Special Project by Dreamspinner Press & ManLoveRomance Press. Edited by Kris Jacen. How much impact can someone have on your life if you've never met them face to face? In this electronic age of E-mails, electronic publishing, and social networks, quite a lot. Through his emails, stories and blog, author Patric Michael has touched numerous hearts, minds and lives from the start of his career and further as he now takes us along on his journey to battle cancer. Along the way, Patric shows us a side of life that not many truly see-- how we are all a part of something larger than just ourselves, and how we are each touched by others for the betterment of all. Now, those that have been touched by Patric and his words have joined together to give something back, to him and to us all through something he values highly – words. In this compilation, gay short stories, poems, and anecdotes combined with excerpts from Patric's blog and a few entertaining, educational group posts reveal, and celebrate, the man who has touched so many hearts and minds. This collection, sometimes erotic, sometimes irreverent, and always poignant, is a gift from all our hearts to celebrate Patric and give strength (and a little levity) to others. The price reflects this; no one is receiving royalties or payment from the sales. Use it to celebrate life, celebrate words, and possibly inspire someone who needs it.

The DelFly

The DelFly

This book introduces the topics most relevant to autonomously flying flapping wing robots: flapping-wing design, aerodynamics, and artificial intelligence. Readers can explore these topics in the context of the "Delfly", a flapping wing robot designed at Delft University in The Netherlands.How are tiny fruit flies able to lift their weight, avoid obstacles and predators, and find food or shelter? The first step in emulating this is the creation of a micro flapping wing robot that flies by itself. The challenges are considerable: the design and aerodynamics of flapping wings are still active areas of scientific research, whilst artificial intelligence is subject to extreme limitations deriving from the few sensors and minimal processing onboard.This book conveys the essential insights that lie behind success such as the DelFly Micro and the DelFly Explorer. The DelFly Micro, with its 3.07 grams and 10 cm wing span, is still the smallest flapping wing MAV in the world carrying a camera, whilst the DelFly Explorer is the world's first flapping wing MAV that is able to fly completely autonomously in unknown environments. The DelFly project started in 2005 and ever since has served as inspiration, not only to many scientific flapping wing studies, but also the design of flapping wing toys.The combination of introductions to relevant fields, practical insights and scientific experiments from the DelFly project make this book a must-read for all flapping wing enthusiasts, be they students, researchers, or engineers.

Plays by Women from the Contemporary American Theater Festival

Plays by Women from the Contemporary American Theater Festival

Susan Miller; Eleanor Burgess; Johnna Adams; Chisa Hutchinson; D.W. Gregory

Methuen Drama
2019
nidottu
Based at Shepherd University, in West Virginia, the Contemporary American Theater Festival is nationally and internationally recognized as a home for playwrights and the development and production of new plays. The Festival makes it a priority to celebrate and produce playwrights with strong, distinct voices, with a core value to tell diverse stories. This anthology of work provides plays that speak to one of the most compelling virtues of artists everywhere – freedom of speech. A necessary volume of women playwrights’ work, ranging from a two-time Obie Award-winning author to emerging writers just beginning their careers, it represents a group of women who vary in age, race and sexual orientation and offers an invitation to artistic leaders, scholars and students to embrace gritty, thought-provoking new dramatic work. Edited by The Festival’s Producing Directors Peggy McKowen and Ed Herendeen, this anthology features an introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winner Lynn Nottage. Each of the five powerful plays is followed by an informative and discursive playwright interview conducted by Sharon J. Anderson that contextualizes and develops the works within the wider context of the annual festival. The plays include: Gidion's Knot by Johnna Adams The Niceties by Eleanor Burgess Memoirs of a Forgotten Man by D.W Gregory Dead and Breathing by Chisa Hutchinson 20th Century Blues by Susan Miller

Dirichlet Forms

Dirichlet Forms

E. Fabes; M. Fukushima; L. Gross; C. Kenig; M. Röckner; D.W. Stroock

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K
1993

The theory of Dirichlet forms has witnessed recently some very important developments both in theoretical foundations and in applications (stochasticprocesses, quantum field theory, composite materials,...). It was therefore felt timely to have on this subject a CIME school, in which leading experts in the field would present both the basic foundations of the theory and some of the recent applications. The six courses covered the basic theory and applications to: - Stochastic processes and potential theory (M. Fukushima and M. Roeckner) - Regularity problems for solutions to elliptic equations in general domains (E. Fabes and C. Kenig) - Hypercontractivity of semigroups, logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and relation to statistical mechanics (L. Gross and D. Stroock). The School had a constant and active participation of young researchers, both from Italy and abroad.

GOETHE bemerkt in seinen "Maximen und Reflexionen": "Zur Verewigung des Irrtums tragen die Werke besonders bei, die enzyklopädisch das Wahre und Falsche des Tages überliefern. Hier kann die Wissenschaft nicht bearbeitet werden, sondern was man weiß, glaubt, wähnt, wird aufgenommen; deswegen sehen solche Werke nach fünfzig Jahren gar wunderlich aus. " Diese kritische Einstellung zum "Handbuch" hatte ich vor Augen, als ich mit den Vorbereitun­ gen für den Band "Mikrozirkulation" begann. Den Mut, dennoch ein nicht abgeschlossenes Werk vorzulegen, begründe ich damit, daß die Sorge, zur Ver­ ewigung des Irrtums beizutragen, für das heutige Verständnis der Wissenschaft nicht mehr gilt. Zwar halten manche Forscher daran fest - und das ist auch ihr gutes Recht - zu versuchen, einmal Erarbeitetes mit neuen Methoden oder durch ergänzende Befunde zu bestätigen und zu erhärten, im Grunde geben sie aber durch ihre weiteren Arbeiten zu - und sie sind auch darauf gefaßt -, daß jeder einzelne Befund, jede Grundlage und jede entwickelte Hypothese sich als falsch erweisen kann. Diese skeptische Grundhaltung der Forscher gegen­ über den Ergebnissen der Wissenschaft rührt daher, daß sie einerseits nicht mehr glauben, sich mit Hilfe der Wissenschaft jemals der Wahrheit direkt versi­ chern zu können, andererseits können sie Glauben im Sinne des Fest-für-wahr­ Haltens in der Wissenschaft nicht gelten lassen. In dem Bestreben, die Dinge kritisch und realistisch zu sehen, bemühen sich die theoretischen, d. h.

Routledge
2005
sidottu
This independent and critical study in economic and social history is based on free access to the records of W.D. & H.O. Wills. Dr Alford traces the history of the firm from its origin to its transformation into a constituent part of a larger company. Having played such a leading role in the development of the UK tobacco industry, Willis’ book is more than the history of a single firm, it also provides an important study of a leading consumer goods industry. Drawing on aspects of economic theory, the author examines the firm's development in the light of general aspects of business history.This major study was first published in 1973.
