Download or read book Morton Gould written by Peter W. Goodman and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 2000 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Amadeus). Morton Gould (1913-1996) was a dominant force in American music throughout most of the 20th century. This phenomenally talented composer, conductor, arranger, and pianist worked in vaudeville and on radio, from Tin Pan Alley to Broadway, all the while churning out jingles, symphonies, and everything in between. His popularity, however, may have been the reason that he never received due recognition for his concert music. Peter Goodman began working on this biography with Gould himself more than a year before his death and was allowed full access by the family to all of Gould's diaries and files.

Download or read book The Tyrannosaur Chronicles written by David Hone and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-04-21 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Gripping and wonderfully informative' Tom Holland, New Statesman Adored by children and adults alike, Tyrannosaurus is the most famous dinosaur in the world, one that pops up again and again in pop culture, often battling other beasts such as King Kong, Triceratops or velociraptors in Jurassic Park. But despite the hype, Tyrannosaurus and the other tyrannosaurs are fascinating animals in their own right, and are among the best-studied of all dinosaurs. Tyrannosaurs started small, but over the course of 100 million years evolved into the giant carnivorous bone-crushers that continue to inspire awe in palaeontologists, screenplay writers, sci-fi novelists and the general public alike. Tyrannosaurus itself was truly impressive; it topped six tons, was more than 12m (40 feet) long, and had the largest head and most powerful bite of any land animal in history. The Tyrannosaur Chronicles tracks the rise of these dinosaurs, and presents the latest research into their biology, showing off more than just their impressive statistics – tyrannosaurs had feathers and fought and even ate each other. This book presents the science behind this research; it tells the story of the group through their anatomy, ecology and behaviour, exploring how they came to be the dominant terrestrial predators of the Mesozoic and, in more recent times, one of the great icons of biology.

Download or read book Surviving with the Enron Dinosaurs written by James R. Tucker and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2006-09-29 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book takes a lighthearted look back at the authors journey and experiences with the Enron Dinosaurs. Tucker, an ex-Enron pipeline engineer, brings to the reader a lighter side of the events that led up to Enrons collaspe. The term "Dinosaur" was coined by upper management to describe employees who designed, maintained, and operated Enrons gas pipeline systems. It was a derogatory term which expressed old-fashioned, boring, and un-innovative for the new "non-asset" age of Enron. Ultimately, the gas pipelines and resilient Dinosaurs survived Enrons tragedy as it was found they were practically the only legitimately profitable companies owned by Enron. Although not as rich as they were during Enrons peak, the easy-going and hard working Dinosaurs are still around, living happy, and still working on those pipelines.

Download or read book Dancing with the Dinosaur written by William Lareau and published by Academic Learning Company LLC. This book was released on 1994 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to present you with a new perspective about work and business -- new behaviors, new expectations, new theories. In order to do this, it is necessary to disrupt and challenge the strongly ingrained but outmoded and ridiculous assumptions that you've been taught about business by well-meaning parents, teachers, and by society. An important element of this book's strategy for challenging the old and teaching the new is to create and place you in a make-believe business jungle, replete with dinosaurs. This jungle and its dinosaurs are metaphors for the normal business world and the people who work in it. In order to strengthen the impact, all the dinosaurs are given special names.At first these names will seem strange and difficult to pronounce. Very quickly though, the names will become familiar and even endearing as you begin to internalize the concepts.

A mini-reunion for the Mélange is arranged, hoping that a fracas prior to graduation that scattered them will have faded from memories. It has, and the event is a great success. We learn about the Mélangers’ lives since graduation, and there are some surprises.

In the process, readers learn how to defend evolution against creationists. About the Author Steven M. Stanley is a paleontologist with an A.B. from Princeton, summa cum laude, and a Ph.D. from Yale.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Laughter: The Best Meditation can help you to start your Laughter Meditation. When you read it and enjoy the jokes, laugh out aloud. At first, it will be difficult but you will soon get into the joy of laughter, so start with a soft “he- he-he”. Then make it louder with a chuckle, a giggle, a snicker and finally with a full-throated guffaw as you roar with a full- belly laugh. Keep on for at least fifteen minutes. Then STOP suddenly and go into total silence. Now you will absorb all that energy deep inside you that was generated while laughing. Your mind will become completely silent, without any thoughts. This is when you are in meditation.
