Download or read book Show No Mercy written by Alfred Lewis Bishop and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-06-19 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four ruthless men, one an American and the other three from the Middle East, have devised a scheme, which turns out to be a bloodbath of epic proportions, to extort a monumental sum of money from the United States Government. Nothing short of success will turn them aside. Human lives, seemingly not even that of one of them, have no meaning. Their use of weaponry goes from the most basic to the most sophisticated. The story has an aside involving the intrigue one nation will stoop to for some political motive to badger another. The story moves from the highest office in Congress, to the office of the President, the FBI, to both the east and west coasts, to other nations, to the Middle East and back and forth. Vividly portrayed is the carnage purely evil and twisted minds can reek. There is something in the story for everyone. Seeing into government as it really is from someone with experience. A love story, unbridled violence, that there is a good side to most people. Something for the adventurous among us. Experiencing a father's anguish, and the vengeful side of him. The story has it all.

Download or read book G A M E Games Autonomy Motivation Education written by Menno Deen and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-08-03 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis reviews and utilizes concepts from cognitive psychology, developmental psychology and game design to bring forth a number of design principles for educational games that may improve students' motivation to learn. Its main contribution is a novel approach to serious game design, namely envisioning play and learning as a restructuring practice. This change of perspective, from a formal game design approach (focused on rules and regulations) towards a more activity-centered approach (focused on process and style), may help designers to leverage the motivational potential of games, in order to make education more engaging to students.
Download or read book Monster Kids written by Daniel Dockery and published by Running Press Adult. This book was released on 2022-10-04 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive, behind-the-scenes look at why Pokémon's evolution from a single Japanese video game to global powerhouse captured the world's attention, and how the "gotta catch 'em all" mentality of its fanbase shaped pop culture—and continues to do so today. More than just a simple journey through the history of Pokémon, Daniel Dockery offers an in-depth look at the franchise’s many branches of impact and influence. With dozens of firsthand interviews, Monster Kids covers its beginnings as a Japanese video game created to recapture one man's love of bug-collecting as a child before diving into the decisions and conditions that would ultimately lead to that game's global domination. With its continued growth as television shows, spin-off video games, blockbuster movies, trading cards, and toys, Pokémon is a unique and special brand that manages to continue to capture the attention and adoration of its eager fanbase 25 years after its initial release. Whether it was new animated shows like Digimon, Cardcaptors, and Yu-Gi-Oh!; the rise of monster-catching video games and trading card games; and more, Pikachu, the king of pop culture in the '90s, opened the doors in America to those hoping to capture some of Pokémon's dedicated fans. In Monster Kids, Dockery combines the personal stories of the people who helped bring Pokémon to the global stage with affection and humor, making this book the ultimate look at the rise of the franchise in Japan and then North America, but also the generation of kids whose passion for "catching them all" created a unique cultural phenomenon that continues to make a profound impact today.

Download or read book As Luck Would Have It written by Joshua Piven and published by Villard. This book was released on 2003-10-07 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I felt, intuitively, that luck exists. It’s like capitalism: For better or for worse, and whether you believe in it or not, luck is inescapable. —from As Luck Would Have It While cowriting the books in the Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook series, Joshua Piven came across dozens of people with tremendously compelling stories of triumph (or misfortune), seemingly against all odds and logic. When they were asked what they had in common, invariably their answer was: good luck, or not enough of it. The beneficiary of his own brand of extraordinary luck in publishing, Piven decided to take a closer look at how this phenomenon plays a part in success and survival. As Luck Would Have It offers a fascinating survey of the phenomenon, presented through incredible first- person stories: the swimming pool repairman who had only a hundred-dollar bill to pay for his hot dog, asked for his change in lottery tickets, and won $180 million; the woman who survived a plane crash at sea; the teller who was struck by lightning while at his window inside the bank; the guy who invented the Pet Rock. Weaving the subjects’ own beliefs about their experiences with compelling research on chance, probability, and luck psychology, As Luck Would Have It also includes research on how to prepare for luck, how to deal with it when it arrives, and how to make the choices that will help us benefit from luck. Mesmerizing, by turns hilarious and harrowing, As Luck Would Have It offers a series of scenarios that are at once unimaginable and vividly real.
