Download or read book Stella and Steve Travel through Space written by James Duffett-Smith and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know that Jupiter is eleven times the size of Earth? The solar system is an incredible place that is still mostly unexplored. So, when Stella and her family move to a new town—where Stella has no friends except for her dog Steve—she goes exploring. In this educational book, travel across the solar system with Stella and Steve as Stella looks for a new home on another planet and imagines what life would be like on another world, from Mercury to Pluto. But along the way Stella learns that Venus has acid rain and Neptune is made entirely of gas, and she begins to wonder whether Earth might actually be the perfect home for her after all. Featuring a fun and informational story from author James Duffett-Smith, and bold, comic book style illustrations by Bethany Straker, Stella and Steve Travel Through Space shows just how great the Earth is (while providing young children with an early science lesson) in a twist on “there’s no place like home.” A quirky but education book on the solar system (with slight undertones of conserving the Earth), this book for children ages 3 to 6 is sure to find a home in preschool and Kindergarten classrooms as well as home across the globe. Parents will love the science information throughout and kids will instantly connect with Stella and her suave pug Steve. Children will learn the basics about the solar system, the various planets, and why we are able to live on Earth so well.

Download or read book Alphas VS Albras written by Raja Nunna and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2024-03-18 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The man was Steve. Steve Jacob. He was in a volcano, but not scorched. He was in a thunderstorm, yet not drowned. He was at the edge of the cliff but not toppled. Why? Before saying that, we have to know his story keenly. ‘I want to talk about life. Life is a choice of an intentional individual decision made by us,’ Steve thought. “No one can reckon this sort of situation. Even me, never. What you have seen is the International Dance Festival [IDF] in Los Angeles, and Unique Fighting Experience, [UFE] in New York is waiting for me. In an unfortunate situation, I gave my word to both competitions. Sara put hope in me and Blake, my fighting coach too. Blake and I have been waiting for this opportunity for a long, a very long time, now my time has come to take part in the fighting competition. He is in New York, waiting for me. Now I am at a point. Which path should I take? My best friend’s career, reputation, team, college prestige, and professor’s trust are on one side in Los Angeles. My career, sponsors, coach, faith, and passion for becoming a fighter in the fighting competition from childhood are on one side in New York. I can’t skip any one contest, because those competitions are the first and last chance for us, and both are prestigious. I can’t betray any of them from both sides if I have no choice; maybe I have to! Either I act selflessly or selfishly. Even though if I lose on any one side, I will never consider myself an ‘Achiever,’ I have to win on both sides; it’s not my wish; it’s the purpose and goal of my life. So, I am compressed, depressed, and exhausted. Finally, I took a path. I can consider this path as a TRIGGER point in my life. Never be on two ships at the same time since, it brings no way - this is what my dad said,” Steve said to himself.
Download or read book White Saviorism and Popular Culture written by Kathryn Mathers and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book interrogates the white savior industrial complex by exploring how America continues to present an imagined Africa as a space for its salvation in the 21st century. Through close readings of multiple mediated sites where Americans imagine Africa, White Saviorism and Popular Culture examines how an era of new media technologies is reshaping encounters between Africans and westerners in the 21st century, especially as Africans living and experiencing the consequences of western imaginings are also mobilizing the same mediated spaces. Kathryn Mathers emphasizes that the articulation of different forms of humanitarian engagement between America and Africa marks the necessity to interrogate the white savior industrial complex and the ways Africa is being asked to fulfill American needs as life in the United States becomes increasingly intolerable for Black Americans. Drawing on case studies from Savior Barbie (@barbiesavior) to Black Panther and Black is King, Mathers posits that global imperialism not only still reigns, but that it also disguises white supremacy by outsourcing Black American emancipation onto an imagined Africa. This is crucial reading for courses on the cultural politics of representation, particularly in relation to race, social media and popular culture, as well as anyone interested in issues of representation in the global humanitarianism industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magnetic storms may cause damage to satellites, radiation hazard to astronauts, disruption of radio communications, and interruption of ground electric power lines. Space weather prediction becomes an important issue to be addressed in the twenty-first century. International Solar Terrestrial Program (ISTP) employs five satellites to probe the solar wind and magnetosphere, providing valuable information for space weather prediction. The Asia-Pacific region is becoming one of the economic centers in the world. The continuous drive for scientific and technological progress in parallel is evidenced by the establishment of many space research organizations in many countries of this area. In Taiwan, the National Space Program Office (NSPO) established her third satellite program -- COSMIC (Constellation Obsering Systems for Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate), which is a science experiment to demonstrate the utility of atmospheric radio limb soundings from a constellation of six low-earth orbiting satellites in operational weather prediction, space weather monitoring, and climate monitoring and research.In order to provide a forum to discuss the many new results in this rapid-moving field and to forge international collaborations, a three-day COSPAR Colloquium on "Space Weather Study Using Multipoint Techniques" was held. This colloquium have provided a forum for experts from the international community to present new results on the timely topic "space weather".

Download or read book Rachel s Children written by Steve Beard and published by Rowman Altamira. This book was released on 2004-06-22 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rachel's Children is a true story, based on real events. It is an engaging and humorous account of a contemporary Ojibwa household and the woman and her children who are at its core. As their lives unfold, we understand how traditional beliefs and oral history help Rachel and her family cope as they encounter racism and educational discrimination in rural northern Michigan. When a white educator arrives in RachelOs household to learn about 'Indians,' she discovers the harsh reality of backwoods life. Beardslee is the queen of sucker punches—she writes in an unexpected combination of ethnography, theatrical script, and novel, echoing the Ojibwa style of storytelling. Her absorbing story about survival of the Native American family encourages a greater understanding of cultural diversity, and will be valuable for instructors in Native studies, multicultural education, womenOs studies, and anthropology.
