Until she meets August Manzano, the one who saved her and the man that she thought as the omen of death in a brown hoodie jacket. They believe that they have the same melody because they are living in the same universe, but the DOT can destroy everything. The Dot that acts as blackhole that can separate them from reality.

Nick Aten, and his best friend Steve Price – troubled seventeen year olds – spend it as usual hanging around the sleepy town, eating fast food and planning their revenge on Tug Slatter, a local bully and their arch-enemy. But by Sunday, Tug Slatter becomes the last of their worries because somehow overnight civilization is in ruins. Adults have become murderously insane – literally. They're infected with an uncontrollable urge to kill the young. Including their own children. As Nick and Steve try to escape the deadly town covered with the mutilated bodies of kids, a group of blood-thirsty adults ambushes them. Just a day before they were caring parents and concerned teachers, today they are savages destroying the future generation. Will Nick and Steve manage to escape? Is their hope that outside the Doncaster borders the world is 'normal' just a childish dream? Blood Crazy, first published in 1995, is a gripping, apocalyptic horror from Simon Clark.

Download or read book An Efficient Monaural Procedure for the Psychoacoustic Calibration of Earphones written by John Donald Harris and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new procedure is examined for psychoacoustic calibration of earphones in which the air-conducted outputs of a standard and an unknown earphone are successively equated for loudness to a reference bone-conducted tone. The problem to the subject is one of monaural loudness discrimination, with a relatively small variance (differential sensitivity = 1.23 - 1.61 dB), and involves only four sources of variance associated with coupling two earphones to the same ear, and a single loudness discrimination judgment for each phone. The mean test-retest difference in the earphone transfer functions varied by 1.33 - 5.89 dB at different frequencies, mid-value = 3.36 dB. Only a few minutes are required to complete a subject's observations at any frequency. Acceptable group means for transferring audiometric standards to an unknown earphone could be obtained at any frequency by requiring as few as nine subjects to make a single monaural loudness discrimination per earphone by this technique. In contrast, the traditional alternate interaural loudness balancing has a somewhat larger variance associated with the judgment per se (differential sensitivity = 1.50 - 2.50 dB), and involves the additional variances associated with collecting two absolute thresholds and coupling the two earphones to a second ear when the earphones are reversed on the head. The mean test-retest difference in the earphone transfer functions by the traditional 'ear-reversal' method varied from 4.16 - 7.54 dB at different frequencies, mid-value = 6.30 dB, nearly twice that of the suggested procedure.

Then, six years later, she drops out of college to serve a mission—a decision for which her father disowns her. After serving her mission in Taiwan, twenty-two-year-old Allison marries her Chinese-speaking American boyfriend, Cameron Chastain. But sixteen months later, Allison returns home to their Texas apartment and is shocked to discover that, in her two-hour absence, Cameron has taken all the money, moved out, and filed for divorce. Desperate for love and acceptance, Allison moves to Utah and enlists in an imaginary, unforgiving dating war against the bachelorettes at Brigham Young University, where the rules don’t make sense—and winning isn’t what she thought it would be.
