Medieval Answers to Modern Questions

Medieval Answers to Modern Questions

Neil J Smith

Independently Published
2020
pokkari
Contrary to popular perceptions, the European Middle Ages were a fertile intellectual period in history. The groundwork laid by scholastic philosophers of the Middle Ages made the advancements of the Renaissance possible. Given the myriad of social and political questions confronting us today, the author sent via time machine a letter to a scholastic philosopher to obtain the medieval perspective on these pressing modern problems. This book is the response that he received. It addresses a wide range of modern issues from a medieval perspective, ranging from the political (such as questions relating to socialism, immigration, and the right to bear arms) to the deeply personal (such as abortion and transgender rights). The book is written in the same question and answer style used by the scholastics, and is well researched with over 200 citations to medieval and classical sources.

The Denaut Muscular Re-Calibration System (MRS): Don't treat the symptoms, just restore the systems

The Denaut Muscular Re-Calibration System (MRS): Don't treat the symptoms, just restore the systems

Neil J. Denaut

Independently Published

The Denaut Muscular Re-Calibration System is my complete guide to restoring total neuro-musculo-skeletal efficiency to ANY body. Muscular Re-Calibration is the single-most effective approach to restoring the body back to it's foundational greatness. Mostly all non-impact injuries occur from poor neuro-muscular balances all throughout the body. If one part of your body is unhappy, then every part of your body has something to do with it. This book will explain how this system was developed, how we program to correct injuries, and restore the body back to its strongest. Note about the author: I developed this system with nearly 20 years of in practice data throughout my Fitness and Healing Career. I have have amassed over 35,000 practice hours of personal training/corrective exercise, and hands-on therapy. It was 2010, when I met my would be friend and mentor, Carla McEwan. She was the one that introduced me to Eccentric Muscle Stretching as she fully restored my entire upper body in 1 hour's time. This eliminated an 8 year old shoulder injury. I was told by an Orthopedist that the only thing that could be done was to shave some bone shaved away to make it feel better. I said, no thanks, I'll figure it out. I found her and she was thee one that stopped the problem. That's when I asked her to teach me and the rest is in this book. Ever since then we have continued worked together as student, friend, and as an International Education team in Shanghai China. This is the body, plain and simple. This is how it works and this is how we restore it. Injuries will happen to all of us and this will be your answer. Look no further, the answers are here

Leap Year's Revenge

Leap Year's Revenge

Neil J McCurry

La Maison Publishing, Inc.
2022
pokkari
Lewis Duncan was born one month premature on a Leap Year, during one of Cape Cod's most significant snowstorms in almost a hundred years. Although he had an average birth weight for a full-term infant, his parents quickly noticed many concerning issues with his growth process. Unfortunately, it seemed town residents and his school recognized this also. He started getting bullied at a very young age, and his parent's protection could only go so far. His father always told him, "Lewis, use words to defeat the bullies, not your fists." Over seventeen years, Lewis had enough and finally took matters into his own hands.

Retribution in Chronicles

Retribution in Chronicles

Neil J. Morrison

Mohr Siebeck
2024
nidottu
Neil J. Morrison seeks to clarify the nature and purpose of the theme of divine retribution in Chronicles. He contends that retribution represents a malleable motif which serves the ideological purpose of fostering religious commitment and bolstering the status of the Second Temple. Nevertheless, the outworking of retribution in the narrative has been constrained by other ideological commitments and the exigencies of the contemporary world. For example, the divine provision of the temple and God's irrevocable commitment to Israel often overshadow retribution. Similarly, the uncertainties of the late-Persian or early-Hellenistic setting necessitated a more flexible approach to retribution, underscoring the importance of human activity rather than waiting upon divine intervention. This theory explains how retribution serves a didactic purpose without representing a systematic theological dogma.

Guerrilla Capacity Planning

Guerrilla Capacity Planning

Neil J. Gunther

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K
2006
sidottu
In these days of shortened fiscal horizons and contracted time-to-market schedules, traditional approaches to capacity planning are often seen by management as tending to inflate their production schedules. Rather than giving up in the face of this kind of relentless pressure to get things done faster, Guerrilla Capacity Planning facilitates rapid forecasting of capacity requirements based on the opportunistic use of whatever performance data and tools are available in such a way that management insight is expanded but their schedules are not. A key Guerrilla concept is tactical planning whereby short-range planning questions and projects are brought up in team meetings such that management is compelled to know the answer, and therefore buys into capacity planning without recognizing it as such. Once you have your "foot in the door", capacity planning methods can be refined in an iterative cycle of improvement called "The Wheel of Capacity Planning". Another unique Guerrilla tool is Virtual Load Testing, based on Dr. Gunther's "Universal Law of Computational Scaling", which provides a highly cost-effective method for assessing application scalability.

Analyzing Computer System Performance with Perl::PDQ

Analyzing Computer System Performance with Perl::PDQ

Neil J. Gunther

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K
2011
sidottu
To solve performance problems in modern computing infrastructures, often comprising thousands of servers running hundreds of applications, spanning multiple tiers, you need tools that go beyond mere reporting. You need tools that enable performance analysis of application workflow across the entire enterprise. That's what PDQ (Pretty Damn Quick) provides. PDQ is an open-source performance analyzer based on the paradigm of queues. Queues are ubiquitous in every computing environment as buffers, and since any application architecture can be represented as a circuit of queueing delays, PDQ is a natural fit for analyzing system performance. Building on the success of the first edition, this considerably expanded second edition now comprises four parts. Part I contains the foundational concepts, as well as a new first chapter that explains the central role of queues in successful performance analysis. Part II provides the basics of queueing theory in a highly intelligible style for the non-mathematician; little more than high-school algebra being required. Part III presents many practical examples of how PDQ can be applied. The PDQ manual has been relegated to an appendix in Part IV, along with solutions to the exercises contained in each chapter.Throughout, the Perl code listings have been newly formatted to improve readability. The PDQ code and updates to the PDQ manual are available from the author's web site at www.perfdynamics.com

Uzbekistan more than any other country in the area is likely to play a critical role in shaping Central Asia's future. Situated at the heart of the region and sharing borders with all the other Central Asian states, Uzbekistan is the most powerful and populous of the new states of Central Asia. In this volume, the historical origins of Uzbekistan are explored and the range of political, economic and social challenges faced by the country since independence is charted. Particular attention is given to the emergence of highly authoritarian politics in the country and the implications of this regime for the prospects of economic development, ethnic peace, and the growth of political Islam. The emergence of Tashkent as a force in the international system and the importance of Uzbekistan to other countries in the area, to regional powers and to the leading western countries and international organizations is also examined.
