Picking up where the national bestseller Sex on the Moon left off, NASA astrophysicist Thad Roberts takes us behind the scenes of America's justice system after being arrested for stealing moon rocks to impress his girlfriend. This fascinating, heart-wrenching, and sometimes humorous account of corruption and dehumanization, offers a rich portrayal of the process of ruin that senselessly awaits America's underprivileged. It is a raw and uncensored account that needs to be told, not because it is unique, but because it is far too common. It is an intimate portrayal of humanity's declining identity-which must be understood to be reversed. Thad's Mare Crisium account, referencing a prominent feature on the moon whose name translates as Sea of Crises, contains a subtle yet powerful insight for how to deal with tragedy, highlighting the role that defiance and passion play in overcoming despair and reclaiming a life of adventure and human connection.

The minimal self-balanced manifold (the hyperbolic figure eight knot) defines the minimum possible persistent stage. The boundary conditions of that geometric stage define the Planck constants. The 2 external expressions of that balance (its charge and mass boundaries) connect via the hyperbolic vortex equation. The 17 possible tessellations of that connection define the charge and mass values of all the fundamental particles of matter. And the uniquely balanced partitions within that stage define the constants of Nature.

This isn't just a tale of me traveling around this world with my partner in romance, in a pop-top hippy van named Wiggles, sailing across oceans on a small sailboat, adventuring on ten dollars a day for two years. It isn't just a story about stealing moon rocks from NASA-na ve, young, in love, insecure-and having sex on them. Or about the gut-wrenching truths that followed-shaped by the hard, echoing walls of prison. This is a story about perspective. How it changes. And how we might intentionally change it to enhance our conscious experience of life. It is about shifting the narrative; claiming prose in life that reaches past what has been systematically muted by the modern ways of thinking and dulled under the flag of scarcity.What follows is a series of vignettes, acute trains of thought, stolen moments from my quest to touch the intangible, and to craft song from the physical notes of reality.

This book is about the shape of reality. In this book it is found that the minimal partition balance (the minimum volume complement of the hyperbolic figure eight knot) externally partitions as the n-hypersphere of maximal volume. Together these partitions define the internal and external parts of the minimum possible persistent stage. The boundary conditions of that stage define the Planck constants. The 2 external expressions of that balance connect via the hyperbolic vortex equation, defining all 17 possible tessellations of that connection setting the charge and mass values of all the fundamental particles of matter. The uniquely balanced partitions within that stage define the constants of Nature. And the gamma function, the Riemann zeta function capture this trivial balance.

Residual symptoms, poor interpersonal skills, and learning disabilities make it hard to learn to cope with situations that promote drug use. Overcoming Addictions tackles these obstacles to successful treatment. This manual helps therapists teach groups of individuals with schizophrenia how to avoid drugs and alcohol, recognize signs that they may be headed toward relapse, and build healthy habits and healthy pleasures into their daily routine. The book emphasizes an attitude of acceptance, tolerance, and optimism toward patients. Each chapter includes suggested scripts for use in training sessions. Patients attend three types of training: basic training, which consists of eight 45-minute sessions designed to engage and motivate new patients while teaching basic relapse prevention concepts; skills training, which includes twenty-seven 45-minute sessions in which patients role-play nine specific skills (e.g., how to say "no" to a pushy dealer) after viewing the Substance Abuse Management Module (SAMM) Skills Illustration Videotape; and practice sessions, in which group members apply the concepts they have learned to real-life situations. The Substance Abuse Management Module Skills Illustration Videotape is used during the skills training and is designed to accompany Overcoming Addictions. In realistic settings, actors model the nine skills taught during the skills training sessions.

Canines and humans have lived together for many thousands of years, to our mutual benefit. In addition to providing companionship, dogs can perform critical roles, such as assisting humans with medical concerns, searching for lost individuals, and detecting substances by scent. Researching how technology might be designed for canines has the potential to significantly improve the lives of both dogs and humans.Canine-Centered Computing examines the history and the current state of the art in this nascent field. It draws upon the extensive foundations and literature in human-centered computing to identify and adapt models and methods that are relevant for canines. It surveys the landscape of canine-centered computing and canine psychophysics, and generates a framework and set of guidelines to help inform the requirements, design, and evaluation of systems for canines.Canine-Centered Computing provides a foundation that will enable an HCI researcher or practitioner who is familiar with HCI theory, models, and methods to understand and contribute to this promising nascent field.

Anders Flagstad's new novel Thad Says Parts Is Parts (And Thad Is Right) is a screwball comedy of errors straight from the vaults. Literally. It's an adaptation of the Roman playwright Plautus's comedy Epidicus, but set in 21st century LGBT San Francisco, and asking the often agonizing and perplexing question "Is it possible to be rich, gay, San Franciscan and happy, all at the same time?"Many are those who ask. Few are answered. Even fewer remember what the question was when the answer hits them squarely between the eyes with all the subtlety of a rapidly swung two-by-four. Eddie Stone - the hero of this and his own story - he happens to be one of those few people. Eddie ends up, as you can imagine, with a very sore head.Edward "Eddie" Stone is not a happy man - and he knows it.Eddie has embezzled, stolen, lied, repeatedly laundered stacks of well-worn twenty dollar bills and now local law enforcement is on to him and he's running out of places to hide and he did it all to save his 23 year-old son.Well, the boy's not really his son. Actually, they're not even related. But still, he did it for him. All of it. Honest.Paul Periphanitides, Mr. P., is Eddie's employer. He is also not a happy man. Unfortunately for him, he doesn't know that he's unhappy. Not yet. But he will. Soon.Ace Periphanitides, the young twenty-something Eddie's trying to save is pretty much always happy. He's rich, handsome, young, and goes through boyfriends like a sinus infection sufferer goes through boxes of Kleenex. Ace will end up very, very confused, very shortly.In this twisted and torturous tale of errors based on Plautus's favorite play Epidicus, sons are found and lost, love blossoms and then is rudely plucked, mother's hearts are mended and broken and mended again, much money changes hands, and destinies are chosen, sometimes involuntarily. There's also a couple of drunken brawls in some of the rougher neighborhood Lesbian bars.And of course, it all takes place in The City - the city by the bay, San Francisco. - The novel "Thad Says Parts Is Parts (And Thad Is Right)" is Book Two of the Principal Parts Series - Book One of the series is "Spare Parts", a collection of short stories to be out on Amazon in January 2014. Principal Parts is a set of interconnected books and characters about San Franciscans and how they got that way and what they do to stay that way and where they expect to go with all this stuff they're doing.

Thad Snow (1881–1955) was an eccentric farmer and writer who was best known for his involvement in Missouri’s 1939 Sharecropper Protest—a mass highway demonstration in which approximately eleven hundred demonstrators marched to two federal highways to illustrate the plight of the cotton labourers. Snow struggled to make sense of the changing world, and his answers to questions regarding race, social justice, the environment, and international war placed him at odds with many. In Thad Snow, Bonnie Stepenoff explores the world of Snow, providing a full portrait of him. Snow settled in the Missouri Bootheel in 1910—“Swampeast Missouri,” as he called it—when it was still largely an undeveloped region of hardwood and cypress swamps. He cleared and drained a thousand acres and became a prominent landowner, highway booster, and promoter of economic development—though he later questioned the wisdom of developing wild land. In the early 1920s, “cotton fever” came to the region, and Snow started producing cotton in the rich southeast Missouri soil. Although he employed sharecroppers, he became a bitter critic of the system that exploited labour and fostered racism. In the 1930s, when a massive flood and the Great Depression heaped misery on the farmworkers, he rallied to their cause. Defying the conventions of his class, he invited the Southern Tenant Farmers’ Union (STFU) to organize workers on his land. He became a friend and colleague of Owen Whitfield, an African American minister, who led the Sharecroppers’ Roadside Strike of 1939. The successes of this great demonstration convinced Snow that mankind could fight injustice by peaceful means. While America mobilized for World War II, he denounced all war as evil, remaining a committed pacifist until his death in 1955. Shortly before he died, Snow published an autobiographical memoir, From Missouri, in which he affirmed his optimistic belief that people could peacefully change the world. This biography places Snow in the context of his place and time, revealing a unique individual who agonised over racial and economic oppression and environmental degradation. Snow lived, worked, and pondered the connections among these issues in a small rural corner of Missouri, but he thought in global terms. In a new millennium, with the civil rights movement and a series of wars to inform us, these issues still demand our attention today. Well-crafted and highly readable, Thad Snow provides an astounding assessment of an agricultural entrepreneur transformed into a social critic and an activist.
