Dariusz Sosnicki's poems open our eyes to the sublime just beneath the surface of the mundane: a train carrying children away from their parents for summer vacation turns into a ravenous monster; a meal at a Chinese restaurant inspires a surreal journey through the zodiac; a malfunctioning printer is a reminder of the ghosts that haunt us no matter where we find ourselves. Among the perpetrators and victims, buzzed or wasted to the bone, gliding without their blinkers on in the ruts of the national fate-they're not at home. Dariusz Sosnicki is an award-winning poet, essayist, and editor in Poland.

The conclusion of the two-part series, Things Come Together. This heart-warming yet sometimes somber romance follows Derek and Katie, two young millennials on individual journeys of self-discovery. Katie Berry, an alluring woman who comes from an ideal upper-class upbringing struggles to escape her past to establish a stable future of her own with Derek Dupree, a young man working to defeat his own insecurities and figure life out. In the midst of continually rising tensions, strained relationships with family and friends, these two also must deal with Katie's demanding father, an estranged workaholic who makes it clear that Derek is not enough for his daughter. Things Come Together follows an ensemble cast of relatable and memorable characters who are on a painful and uncertain road to putting the many pieces of their lives back together. In the midst of the destructive power of pride and ego, the internal struggles of insecurities juxtaposed with outward smiles, expensive possessions, and the frustration of constantly proving something to others, we see that fences can be mended, wounds healed, and hearts opened.
10 things to do on the daily commute to make the journey more bearable: Colouring Book
Alongside the extortionate cost of having to travel between towns or across a large city, commuting provides other delights such as a lack of adequate seating on trains and buses, people talking loudly on their mobile phones about what they had for dinner last night and the sheer monotony of the journey. Fear not however, because help is at hand. During extensive scientific research carried out here at The W1nners' Club, we asked the cleaning lady and the I.T. bloke to help us create a colouring book listing things to do on the way into work that will help pass the time and prepare you for the day ahead.

Identity is a journey of self-discovery empowering Christian's to overcome conformity and break free to find purpose in their life. To find your identity, you must begin your search from the right starting point which is realizing you are not who you are pretending to be. Like Moses, frustrated Christians are conflicted by the call to do greater things with their life but cannot move pass their own feelings of inadequacy. Identity is a book where every Christian can have an encounter with Christ that encourages them to pursue victories in life with greater tenacity. Using powerful scripture, Identity offers Christ-centered healing and hope by opening the readers eyes to how God sees them.

Being a transformational leader requires adaptability, great communication skills, virtue and a certain je ne sais quoi. Leadership: A Perspective Centered Around Christianity comes to de-mysticize that indescribable trait and clearly guide the audience on the essence and application of that trait, person, being, higher power - called Jesus Christ. When a leader seeks first the Kingdom of God in every action, this now involves the Great Elohim - Jesus, who can make all things anew. Leadership: A Perspective Centered Around Christianity gives guidance to leaders who seek to make a mark in their lives and the lives of others with a purpose that is kingdom focused. At some point in time, we all must exhibit leadership qualities that impact a person or group of people in several ways. The role of a leader is to make a lasting impression that inspires and motivates individuals to succeed in all aspects. The only way to ensure that this interaction plants seeds that grow on good soil is to involve God in every step.Derius Skinner, a devout man of God with over ten years of leadership experience, wrote this book with the hope to change lives for those who have a front row seat to the challenging, yet rewarding occupation of leadership. He believes that leadership is a blessing from above that gives an opportunity to impart Biblical and Christian principles into everyday life, with the ultimate goal of making a difference that has lasting effects. Leadership: A Perspective Centered Around Christianity will give you the tips, tricks, and script to realize one's own potential and help leaders express the love, encouragement and support that can only come from walking in the ways of God.About the author: Mr. Derius J. Skinner is a multi-faceted entrepreneur and change agent dedicated to social justice reform, community enhancement, and Kingdom Building principles. A Louisiana native and humble man of God, Derius started his journey to educational advancement as an alumnus of Wiley College, a Historically Black College in East Texas where he pledged Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. He later embarked on his career endeavors in Corporate America with a career in Finance and Leadership that has spanned over 10 years at a Top 25 Fortune 500 company. Derius expanded his knowledge by earning a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and a Master's Degree in Organizational Leadership. This led to the formation of Mindwarped Enterprize LLC, a consulting firm focused on business and career development in which he serves as CEO. As the son of a minister, Mr. Skinner has always had the love of God in his heart, and now seeks to share that same of love of God with leaders who look to blaze a path for others while allowing the Lord's "Word to be lamp to their feet and light unto their path." - Psalm 119:105

This book offers new transparent views and step-by-step methods for performance evaluation of a set of units using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The book has twelve practical chapters. Elementary concepts and definitions are gradually built in Chapters 1-6 based upon four examples of one input and one output factors, two input factors, two output factors, and four input and three output factors. Simultaneously, the mathematical foundations using linear programming are also introduced without any prerequisites. A reader with basic knowledge of mathematics and computers is able to understand the contents of the book. In addition, to prevent pre-judgment about the available concepts and definitions in the DEA literature, some new phrases are introduced and, after elucidating each phrase in detail in Chapters 1-6, they are reintroduced for industry-wide accuracy in Chapter 7. After that, some of the more advanced DEA topics are illustrated in Chapters 8-12, such as: production-planningproblems, output-input ratio analysis, efficiency over different time periods, Malmquist efficiency indexes, and a delta neighborhood model.A clear overview of many of the elementary and advanced concepts of DEA is provided, including Technical Efficiency, Relative Efficiency, Cost/Revenue/Profit Efficiency, Price/Overall Efficiency, the DEA axioms, the mathematical background to measure technical efficiency and overall efficiency, the multiplier/envelopment form of basic DEA models in input/output-orientation, the multiplier/envelopment of Additive DEA model, the multiplier/envelopment of slacks-based models, and others. The book also covers a variety of DEA techniques, input-output ratio analysis, the natural relationships between DEA frontier and the ratio of output to input factors, production-planning problems, planning ideas with a centralized decision-making unit, context-dependent DEA, Malmquist efficiency index, efficiency over different time periods, and others. End-of-chapter exercises are provided for each chapter.

“This book provides a significant contribution to the discursive analysis of service encounters. It demonstrates, in a very elegant way and based on a solid empirical investigation, how mediated discourse analysis may be enacted to describe and understand the social and cultural practices associated with space, time, ethnicity and identity construction. A must-read for researchers and practitioners interested in language use in professional contexts.”-- Laurent Filliettaz, University of Geneva, Switzerland“This book contains one of the most thorough and productive applications of the theoretical and analytical apparatus of mediated discourse analysis I have come across, demonstrating how the moment-by-moment ways that people appropriate discourse to perform mundane daily activities such as shopping contribute to the broader maintenance of social identities and communities. The analysis is meticulously undertaken and communicated in clear, elegant prose. This book will be of interest to anyone working in the field of discourse studies."-- Rodney Jones, University of Reading, UKThis book investigates the social practices of service encounters in the context of a typical Persian shop in Sydney. Although by nature goal-oriented speech events, the book posits that service encounters are not simply limited to achieving business transactions, but that they incorporate a range of social and discursive practices. Analysing ethnographic data using the frameworks of Mediated and Multimodal Discourse Analysis, the author explores how people use everyday activities to enact social and cultural identities, construct linguistic authenticity, and maintain strong economic ties to the community. It will be of interest to scholars and students of the sociolinguistics of ethnic/ minority sites and urban spaces.Dariush Izadi holds a PhD in Sociolinguistics and teaches Language and Linguistics Research Methods, Sociolinguistics, Discourse Analysis and TESOL Units at Western Sydney University, Australia. In his work, he applies mediated discourse and nexus analysis to investigate practices and methods through which participants accomplish their actions in social settings.

In this monograph the authors give a systematic approach to the probabilistic properties of the fixed point equation X=AX+B. A probabilistic study of the stochastic recurrence equation X_t=A_tX_{t-1}+B_t for real- and matrix-valued random variables A_t, where (A_t,B_t) constitute an iid sequence, is provided. The classical theory for these equations, including the existence and uniqueness of a stationary solution, the tail behavior with special emphasis on power law behavior, moments and support, is presented. The authors collect recent asymptotic results on extremes, point processes, partial sums (central limit theory with special emphasis on infinite variance stable limit theory), large deviations, in the univariate and multivariate cases, and they further touch on the related topics of smoothing transforms, regularly varying sequences and random iterative systems. The text gives an introduction to the Kesten-Goldie theory for stochastic recurrence equations of the type X_t=A_tX_{t-1}+B_t. It provides the classical results of Kesten, Goldie, Guivarc'h, and others, and gives an overview of recent results on the topic. It presents the state-of-the-art results in the field of affine stochastic recurrence equations and shows relations with non-affine recursions and multivariate regular variation.
