Book excerpt: The use of daylight in the built environment is preferred to artificial sources as it provides visual comfort and satisfaction along with significant energy savings. Daylight is also the primary source for stimulus that establish a healthy day/night cycle, or circadian rhythm. With the discovery of photosensors within the eye that are specifically linked to the portion of the brain responsible for maintaining a healthy circadian rhythm, a new field of lighting design has come in to being focused on controlling the spectrum of light that they are sensitive to. Currently, work in this field of lighting design, called circadian lighting design, is concentrated on artificial sources circadian stimulus. This is largely due to the advent of the widespread use LED technology, which has proven that it can be a significant source of circadian light. The use of daylight to provide circadian stimulus has been a given in this field of design, however, there has not been very much research into how the built environment affects our ability to effectively receive this stimulus from daylight. In this thesis, the groundwork will be established to start to create a set of guidelines to help architects and designer maximize the potential for daylight to provide circadian stimulus at the earliest stages of a project. This is accomplished through a series of case studies and lighting simulations that explore and test various architectural parameters that affect daylight-driven circadian lighting.

Download or read book Sync My World written by Rodney St.Michael and published by Rodney St.Michael. This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People universally worship the Oedipus complex through gods such as Yah, the son of Allah, and Hawah, Allah's wife. When Yah, a snake deity, tongues the Burning Bush of Hawah, a tree goddess, their union is symbolized by the menorah. Together, they are called "Yahweh" today. The female child has a similar instinct, visually evident through the Crescent and Star, symbolizing Sin, the bisexual moon deity, and Easter, the Superstar (Venus). They are aspects of the sky god Allah, representing a daughter's attachment to her mother-father. The Oedipal force for both genders is most prominent among browns and females, especially bisexuals, but it is innate in everyone's unconscious mind. As part of Easter's five archetypes or political identities, it is the source of all conflict. How do we manage this force and the resulting conflict?

Book excerpt: From #1 NYT bestselling author Ellen Hopkins comes a new heartbreaking young adult novel in verse about twins separated in the foster care system and the different paths their lives take. Seventeen-year-old twins Storm and Lake have always been in perfect sync. They faced the worst a parent could do and survived it together. In the wake of their mother’s rejection, they’ve spent the last five years moving from foster home to foster home—sometimes placed together, sometimes apart. After being separated from his sister once again, Storm is devastated. He’s the older brother and promised to always take care of Lake. But after a stint in juvie, his newest placement has him feeling almost hopeful. His foster dad is kind, and his girlfriend, Jaidyn, is the first person other than Lake he feels he can trust. But when Jaidyn is sexually assaulted by a violent ex, it pushes Storm over the edge. He retaliates and lands back in lockup—and he fears this time it will be for good. He wishes he could talk to Lake, but he doesn’t know where she is, and he' s now feeling more alone and out of sync than ever before. Lake, like Storm, has found her own happiness in a relationship with someone new—her fellow foster, Parker. Life with Parker is never boring, but Parker has her own scars. She can be withdrawn and unpredictable, and that can be dangerous, especially after Parker convinces Lake to run away from their Bible-thumping fosters after they are caught in a compromising position. With no money, shelter, or ID, they’re living on the streets. Lake thinks of Storm and his promise to take care of her, and wonders where he could be now. Told in dual perspectives through unsent letters, at turns heartbreaking and always honest, this latest novel in verse from #1 New York Times bestselling author Ellen Hopkins is a searing and unforgettable account of two teens caught in the teeth of the foster care system, fighting their way out and back to each other.

Download or read book Spying from the Sky written by Robert L. Richardson and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “must read” story of America’s first high-altitude aviation program and one of its pilots (Francis Gary Powers Jr.). William “Greg” Gregory was born into a sharecropper’s life in the hills of North Central Tennessee. From the back of a mule-drawn plow, Greg learned the value of resilience and the importance of determined living. Refusing to accept a life of poverty, he found a way out: a work-study college program that made it possible for him to leave farming behind forever. While at college, Greg completed the Civilian Pilot Training Program and was subsequently accepted into the US Army’s pilot training program. Earning his wings in 1942, he became a P-38 combat pilot and served in North Africa during the summer of 1943—a critical time when the Luftwaffe was still a potent threat, and America had begun the march northward from the Mediterranean into Europe proper. Following the war, Greg served with a B-29 unit, then transitioned to the new, red-hot B-47 strategic bomber. In his frequent deployments, he was always assigned the same target in the Soviet Union: Joseph Stalin’s hometown of Tbilisi. While a B-47 pilot, Greg was selected to join America’s first high-altitude program, the Black Knights. Flying RB-57D aircraft, he and his team flew peripheral “ferret” missions around the Soviet Union and its satellites, collecting critical order-of-battle data desperately needed by the US Air Force at that time. When the program neared its design end—and following the Gary Powers shoot-down over the Soviet Union—Greg was assigned to command of the CIA’s U-2 unit at Edwards AFB. Over this five-year command, he and his team provided critical overflight intelligence during the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Vietnam buildup, and more. He also became one of the first pilots to fly U-2s off aircraft carriers in a demonstration project. Spying from the Sky is the in-depth biography of William Gregory, who attended the National War College, was assigned to the reconnaissance office at the Pentagon, and was named vice-commandant of the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) before retiring from the force in 1972.

Download or read book Finding the Blue Sky written by Joseph Emet and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joseph Emet explores the intersection between Positive Psychology--the study of what makes people happy--and the ancient wisdom of Buddhism. Positive Psychology—with its focus not on mental "disease," but rather on what actually makes people happy—has revolutionized the way that we look at mental health. What many people don't realize, however, is that Positive Psychology is not as young a field of inquiry as we think. In fact, according to Joseph Emet, the original positive thinker was the Buddha himself. In this wise and inspiring book, Emet traces the fascinating intersection between the age-old wisdom of Buddhism and the latest scientific research into what makes people happy. In this book readers will discover: * How to replace negative thinking with positive thinking * How to move from frenzied thinking to quiet contemplation * The duty we have to others to live a happy life As Joseph explains in this work, the blue sky of happiness is found just beyond the grey clouds of sadness, everyday concerns, stress, or anxiety. Readers will find that the advice in this book can act as the gentle wind that clears those clouds away.
