Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: D. Clark Farr at his best with this Science Fiction thriller that pits the intelligence and prowess of a young man who finds himself the object of a diabolical experiment. He (the Viper) must find his way out and must recover his original identity to discover who he is and why he has been taken galaxies away from his original home... "You're sedated," Viper thought. "That means you won't be able to move. It won't stop you. Think! They can only keep you for so long...before you find a way out. WAKE UP!" For too long, Project Viper's world has been controlled by captors who keep everything, including his freedom, just out of reach. The powerful, scientific Project knows disturbingly little of his past, the designs behind his own creation, or what lies before him. After a daring escape, away from the protection of his asteroid prison, he collides with even bigger problems: - Viper's discontentment sharpens, proving he is more than a heartless warrior, he needs something more than a life of combat offers, yet remains powerless to find it. - A single republic spanning the known universe strains, assaulted by an army whose homeland they cannot find. - A beautiful young woman struggles, rebuilding her life after an unseen foe from the sky devastated her home world. She lost everything, except a strength many others never had-Belief. - An entire civilization hopes, unable to free itself from the grip of tyranny. Without their knowing, the solution rests with a very unlikely hero. THE VIPER PROJECT weaves a masterful tale of action, romance, and intrigue. The Project's escape goes perfectly according to plan. Everything else does not. From there, his destiny hurtles him into an unparalleled journey, challenging him in ways he would never have imagined, only to find that it's just...the beginning.

This book was released on 2023-04-14 with total page 661 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides authoritative and cutting-edge analyses of various aspects of the rights and lives of disabled children around the world. Taking the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child (CRC) as conceptual frameworks, this work appraises the current state of affairs concerning the rights of disabled children across different stages of childhood, different life domains, and different socio-cultural contexts. The book is divided into four sections: Legislation and Policy Children’s Voice The Life Course in Childhood Life Domains in Childhood Comprised of 37 newly commissioned chapters featuring analyses of UN documents and case studies from Australia, Brazil, Ethiopia, Hong Kong, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Papua New Guinea, Serbia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Vanuatu, its multidisciplinary approach reflects the complexities of the lives of disabled children and the multifarious nature of the strategies needed to ensure their rights are upheld. It will be of interest to researchers and students working in disability studies, education, allied health, law, philosophy, play studies, social policy, and the sociology of childhood. It will also be a valuable resource for professionals/practitioners, allowing them to consider future directions for ensuring that disabled children’s rights are realised and their well-being and dignity are assured.
Download or read book SIMD Programming Manual for Linux and Windows written by Paul Cockshott and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A number of widely used contemporary processors have instruction-set extensions for improved performance in multi-media applications. The aim is to allow operations to proceed on multiple pixels each clock cycle. Such instruction-sets have been incorporated both in specialist DSPchips such as the Texas C62xx (Texas Instruments, 1998) and in general purpose CPU chips like the Intel IA32 (Intel, 2000) or the AMD K6 (Advanced Micro Devices, 1999). These instruction-set extensions are typically based on the Single Instruc tion-stream Multiple Data-stream (SIMD) model in which a single instruction causes the same mathematical operation to be carried out on several operands, or pairs of operands, at the same time. The level or parallelism supported ranges from two floating point operations, at a time on the AMD K6 architecture to 16 byte operations at a time on the Intel P4 architecture. Whereas processor architectures are moving towards greater levels of parallelism, the most widely used programming languages such as C, Java and Delphi are structured around a model of computation in which operations takeplace on a single value at a time. This was appropriate when processors worked this way, but has become an impediment to programmers seeking to make use of the performance offered by multi-media instruction -sets. The introduction of SIMD instruction sets (Peleg et al.

Book excerpt: "Guts" - Jetzt erscheint der Bestseller in der aktualisierten und überarbeiteten 2. Auflage. Er enthält 8 goldene Geschäftsregeln von einem der innovativsten Unternehmenschefs unserer Zeit. Lesen Sie hier alles über die Geschäftsphilosophie von Robert Lutz, mit der er nicht nur Chrysler, sondern ein Großteil der Automobilindustrie revolutioniert hat. Lutz ist keine gewöhnliche Führungskraft. Er ist das Produktentwicklungsgenie, das im Alleingang dem 1990 fast vor dem wirtschaftlichen Aus stehenden Chryslerkonzern wieder auf die Füße und 1996 zu Rekordgewinnen verhalf. In diesem Buch enthüllt Lutz sein einzigartiges Markenzeichen: kreatives Management. Hier vermittelt er seine Überzeugungen, die ihn so erfolgreich machten, seine Vorliebe dafür, die bestehende Ordnung in Frage zu stellen sowie eine Reihe nützlicher Lektionen. Der Schlüssel zum Erfolg in jedem Unternehmen liegt für Lutz einerseits in der Aufrechterhaltung einer positiven Spannung zwischen den kreativen Köpfen und den stets zugeknöpften Finanzleuten im Unternehmen, und andererseits darin, wie man diese beiden Parteien motiviert und strategisch geschickt im Unternehmen einsetzt. Mit einer neuen Einleitung sowie einem Nachwort, in dem Lutz eine 8. Geschäftsregel erläutert, die modernen Geschäftsführern dabei hilft, seine berühmten "Seven Immutable Laws of Business" besser zu verstehen. Unterhaltsam und humorvoll geschrieben.
Download or read book Mopar Muscle written by Robert Genat and published by . This book was released on with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in paperback, this book covers Chrysler's incredible series of muscle cars. In 1955 Chrysler introduced the first of its famed 300 "letter series" cars. The company designed a stylish, sporty car, stuffed in one of its potent Hemi engines, and gave birth to the American muscle car. The C-300's combination of style and performance put the Mopar brand ahead of its competitors in the postwar performance race. When the Detroit performance wars began in earnest during the 1960s, Chrysler was well positioned to build the most outragous, bodacious cars of an outrageous, bodacious era, cars like the famed Charger, Hemi Cuda, Road Runner, Superbird, and Challenger T/A. These cars dominated the dragstrips as well as the NASCAR ovals, and with color combinations guaranteed to burn out the corneas of your eyes if you stared at them directly, they ruled the streets of America; they ruled not just the streets, bu the drive ins and parking lots. Nothing was cooler than Mopar muscle. Over the years these legendary Mopar muscle cars were the fastest, baddest assed, most outrageous machines to rip up American pavement. "This lavishly produced book is definitely a feast for all fans of this line of cars: the photography (by David Newhardt) is absolutely stunning. Not only are the pictures big, and of the highest quality, but the thought that has gone into their composition is plain for all to see. It could be argued that given the striking nature of these cars, and the wonderful backdrops, it would be hard to go wrong, but Newhardt went the extra mile here, and it shows. The story is also very comprehensive, listing all of the cars from the line, and taking time to tell the story in a well-researched, yet caring way. It is obvious that Robert Genat knows the subject well and loves it even more. . . . This book is a must-have for all lovers of American muscle, and thanks to the sheer depth of its coverage and drop-dead-gorgeous photography, the asking price of £34.99 is something of a bargain." - Classic Car Weekly (UK)

Download or read book Social Work and Disability written by Peter Simcock and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-06-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Work and Disability offers a contemporary and critical exploration of social work practice with people with physical and sensory impairments, an area that has previously been marginalized within both practice and academic literature. It explores how social work practice can, and indeed does, contribute to the promotion of disabled people’s rights and the securing of positive outcomes in their lives. The book begins by exploring the ways in which disability is understood and how this informs policy and practice. Opening with a thought-provoking account of the lived experience of a disabled person using social work services, it goes on to critically analyse theory, policy and contemporary legislative change. Inequality, oppression and diversity are the focus of the second section of the book, while the remainder offers an in-depth exploration of the social work practice issues in disability settings, notably work with children, adults and safeguarding. Service-user and carer perspectives, case profiles, reflective activities and suggestions for further reading are included throughout. Social Work and Disability will be essential reading for social work students and practitioners. It will also be of interest to service users and carers, students on health and social care courses, third-sector practitioners and advocates.
