Girl-Empowerment at it's best. This book empowers girls with real-life examples that nothing can hold them back from pursuing what they love and achieving their dreams. This based-on-true-stories children's book highlights the lives, struggles, as well as educational & professional achievements of all female Nobel laureates from America. Despite life's biggest challenges and with their sheer Grit to pursue what they love, they broke professional-educational ceilings along the way and became America's female Nobel laureates. Along the way, they literally changed America and the world. Each woman is featured in her own chapter with a colorful portrait (at the end of each chapter). A few storied examples from the book: >Her Dyslexia caused poor standardized test scores as a student. Yet, she won a Nobel Prize as an adult and became a Distinguished Professor at Johns Hopkins University. >As a child of first-generation immigrants and without a formal PhD, she became the 1st woman inducted into Inventors Hall of Fame and received a Nobel Prize. >She was rejected from entering a PhD program in Economics. Yet, she became the only woman in the world to win the Nobel Prize in Economics. >Her parents escaped racism of the south. She grew up in poverty of the Great Depression. She was the only African American student in her first-grade class. She won a Nobel Prize and is a recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. >As a young woman, she had to work two secretarial jobs to pay for college. Years later, she won a Nobel Prize in medicine. >As a child, her parents couldn't afford to raise her so they sent her to live with other family members. She grew up and became America's only woman to win an unshared Nobel Prize in Medicine. >She suffered through starvation-related hospitalizations of World War in Europe. As a first-generation immigrant to the U.S. and despite facing gender discriminatory attitudes of the time, she went on to become America's 1st woman to win a Nobel Prize in science. >She lost her mother at the age of 2.

Early Neolithic occupation (from about 3600 BC) was represented by small groups of pits which were partly contemporary with a well-known round barrow – a protected monument called Wick Barrow or Pixies’ Mound – lying just outside the development site. Later prehistoric remains included Bronze Age burnt mounds, boundary ditches, a Late Bronze Age enclosure, and an Early Iron Age midden. There was more widespread Late Iron Age and Roman settlement, including a seasonally occupied linear settlement with evidence of salt-making. Contemporary activity included a nearby late Roman settlement. On another site a sequence of occupation from the late Iron Age to modern eras was examined. Here historical documents add to the account of the site and preserved the names of some of the farm’s recent inhabitants.

The cemetery was excavated in its entirety and contained the remains of around 300 individuals. Its form is shown to have many characteristics in common with other cemeteries of this period in the western British Isles, including the extended, supine posture of the deceased in simple earth-cut graves largely aligned in a west/east orientation. There were a limited number and range of grave accompaniments. Peculiarities included a concentration of intercutting burials within a small central rectangle, with the later re-use of this space for the deposition of fragments of carved stone, followed by the construction here of a wooden building. The deposition of seashells with a number of the burials appears to be a rite so far unique to this community. The stratigraphic sequence allied to radiocarbon dates on 51 individuals has enabled an unusually refined chronology, showing that the cemetery was used from the early 5th to the later 7th centuries. Measurements of the isotopes of strontium, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen and sulphur in various combinations from a selection of individuals provides insights into aspects of origin, movement and diet. Mitochondrial DNA has provided information on the maternal lineage of 44 individuals, some of whom were buried in the same grave as others of the same lineage. Material remains were sparse but provide insights into the burial practices at this time.

Total Eclipse of the Mind: Unleashing the Power of Darkness for Creativity, Healing, and Transformation
Andrew Holecek
St. Martin's Essentials / Sounds True

sidottu
A groundbreaking guide from trusted teacher Andrew Holecek on dark retreat--the Buddhist meditative practice of being in complete darkness. We need darkness as much as we need light. Yet we live in a distracted age that privileges light and marginalizes darkness. Beloved author Andrew Holecek shows that light doesn't always reveal--it often conceals. With this groundbreaking book, he introduces readers to the ancient practice of dark retreats, a previously secret practice that invites spiritual seekers to remain in complete darkness without any external distractions. Dark retreats invite profound self-reflection--dropping practitioners into deeper understanding of themselves, uncovering new levels of mindfulness and meditation, and illuminating new dimensions of being. "Darkness is a truthteller," writes Holecek. "Darkness is exacting. The question to reflect upon is how willing are you to be exposed?" In this book, Holecek invites readers to reconnect with darkness and rediscover its many benefits. He introduces readers to the ancient wisdom of dark immersion, providing step-by-step guidance to help them determine if this practice is right for them, how to practice it safely, what kinds of challenges arise from the practice, and how to integrate its insights. Full of wisdom teachings, easy home practice, checklists, and his own stories of over thirty years of dark retreat practice, Holecek makes this ancient practice accessible for our modern age, reintegrating darkness into our light-polluted lives.

Teaching any martial art is an important and worthwhile thing to do. When you are teaching children, it is even more so. There is a psychology involved that may not always be apparent to you, the child or their parents. In Teaching Children the Martial Arts I aim to show you how to break down communication barriers so that you can help a child to learn and develop properly. Inside the pages, you will find detailed information, for both instructors and parents, teaching you the techniques which will bring about success for all those involved, with chapters offering: * Ideas and guidelines for talking to the child and the parents* Tips for working with special needs children* Ideas to promote practice and keep children on track* Body language suggestions and ideas* How to overcome that black belt "wall"* The principles to adhere to and avoid* Working with auditory, visual and kinesthetic children* Dealing with children who want to quit* Resolving confrontations* And much more...This is not a book filled with martial arts instruction. It is a powerful tool which can be used in conjunction with those instructions, to give you a more rounded understanding of the children who want to learn these fascinating arts.Let Teaching Children the Martial Arts be an inspiration and motivation. Let it lead to that spark of change in you
How can retail brand power be built and maintained? What are the implications of this for 'producer brands' like Coca-Cola? How will retailing look in the twenty-first century? This book sets out strategies and implementation programmes for building strong brands in retailing, to create competitive differentiation and superior financial returns. It begins with an analysis of how retail and 'own label' brands have leap-frogged traditional producer brands. The authors argue that this is changing the consumer goods industry. To meet these new challenges, the book sets out action plans and examines branding strategies in a number of different market sectors. It also uses analysis and case-studies from around the world, particularly the USA, Europe and Japan.

Accretion Power in Astrophysics
Frank Juhan; Andrew King; Derek Raine
Cambridge University Press
2002
pokkari
Accretion Power in Astrophysics examines accretion as a source of energy in both binary star systems containing compact objects, and in active galactic nuclei. Assuming a basic knowledge of physics, the authors describe the physical processes at work in accretion discs and other accretion flows. The first three chapters explain why accretion is a source of energy, and then present the gas dynamics and plasma concepts necessary for astrophysical applications. The next three chapters then develop accretion in stellar systems, including accretion onto compact objects. Further chapters give extensive treatment of accretion in active galactic nuclei, and describe thick accretion discs. A new chapter discusses recently discovered accretion flow solutions. The third edition is greatly expanded and thoroughly updated. New material includes a detailed treatment of disc instabilities, irradiated discs, disc warping, and general accretion flows. The treatment is suitable for advanced undergraduates, graduate students and researchers.
Dancing with Devtas: Drums, Power and Possession in the Music of Garhwal, North India
Andrew Alter
Ashgate Publishing Limited
2008
sidottu
In the Central Himalayan region of Garhwal, the gods (devtas) enjoy dancing. Musicians - whether ritual specialists or musical specialists - are therefore an indispensable part of most entertainment and religious events. In shamanistic ceremonies, their incantations, songs and drumming 'make' the gods possess their mediums. In other contexts, such as dramatic theatrical renditions of stories of specific deities, actors 'dance' the role of their character having become possessed by the spirit of their character. Through the powerful sounds of their drumming, musicians cause the gods to dance. Music, and more particularly musical sound, is perceived in Garhwal as a powerful force. Andrew Alter examines music and musical practice in Garhwal from an analytical perspective that explores the nexus between musical sounds and performance events. He provides insight into performance practice, vocal techniques, notions of repertoire classification, instruments, ensembles, performance venues, and dance practice. However, music is not viewed simply as a system of organized sounds such as drum strokes, pitch iterations or repertoire items. Rather, in Garhwal, the music is viewed as a system of knowledge and as a system of beliefs in which meaning and spirituality become articulated through potent sound iterations. Alter makes a significant contribution to the discipline of ethnomusicology through a detailed documentation of musical practice in the context of ritual events. The book offers a traditionally thorough historical-ethnographic study of a region with the aim of integrating the local field-based case studies of musical practices within the broader Garhwali context. The work contains invaluable oral data, which has been carefully transliterated as well as translated. Alter blends a carefully detailed analysis of drumming in conjunction with the complex ritual and social contexts of this sophisticated and semantically rich musical practice.

After Fukushima: What We Now Know: A History of Nuclear Power and Radiation

2016

Both radiation and radiophobia are invisible, but both are capable of having a profound impact on modern society. Intended for readers without any background in the subject, you will be surprised at how surprising and compelling the history of nuclear power is. Extremely well-researched, no other book delves so deeply into how we react to radiation and nuclear power. Chernobyl, Fukushima, and even Three Mile Island became larger-than-life incidents and each acquired their own mythology. Despite being an essential part of the natural environment, radiation is rarely well understood.There is a special, and indeed unique fear that we apply not only to nuclear weapons but also nuclear power. Profound, disquieting and all encompassing, this anxiety has affected our ability to think objectively about energy and air pollution.
