Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten-year-old Dandi (affectionately called "Dan" by family and friends) lives and breathes baseball. She may not be a fence buster but she can "hit 'em where they ain't" in the neighborhood pick-up games. The boys know she's a contender. And there's no bigger fan of the 1961 Kansas City A's. So when Charlie Finley, the A's new owner, announces an essay contest to get batboys, there's no doubt Dandi will enter the contest. Dandi not only enters the contest--her essay wins! However, her joy is short-lived when the contest officials enforce the For Boys Only rule. Long before the boundary-breaking ruling of Title IX, young women across the country used grit and determination to prove that barriers of gender have no place on a level playing field. Dandi Daley Mackall's true-life story gives voice and testament to the spirit of these young sports pioneers.Dandi Daley Mackall conducts writing workshops across the United States and speaks at numerous conferences and young author events.

Download or read book Dapper Dan Made in Harlem written by Daniel R. Day and published by Random House Trade Paperbacks. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “Dapper Dan is a legend, an icon, a beacon of inspiration to many in the Black community. His story isn’t just about fashion. It’s about tenacity, curiosity, artistry, hustle, love, and a singular determination to live our dreams out loud.”—Ava DuVernay, director of Selma, 13th, and A Wrinkle in Time NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY VANITY FAIR • DAPPER DAN NAMED ONE OF TIME’S 100 MOST INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE IN THE WORLD With his now-legendary store on 125th Street in Harlem, Dapper Dan pioneered high-end streetwear in the 1980s, remixing classic luxury-brand logos into his own innovative, glamorous designs. But before he reinvented haute couture, he was a hungry boy with holes in his shoes, a teen who daringly gambled drug dealers out of their money, and a young man in a prison cell who found nourishment in books. In this remarkable memoir, he tells his full story for the first time. Decade after decade, Dapper Dan discovered creative ways to flourish in a country designed to privilege certain Americans over others. He witnessed, profited from, and despised the rise of two drug epidemics. He invented stunningly bold credit card frauds that took him around the world. He paid neighborhood kids to jog with him in an effort to keep them out of the drug game. And when he turned his attention to fashion, he did so with the energy and curiosity with which he approaches all things: learning how to treat fur himself when no one would sell finished fur coats to a Black man; finding the best dressed hustler in the neighborhood and converting him into a customer; staying open twenty-four hours a day for nine years straight to meet demand; and, finally, emerging as a world-famous designer whose looks went on to define an era, dressing cultural icons including Eric B. and Rakim, Salt-N-Pepa, Big Daddy Kane, Mike Tyson, Alpo Martinez, LL Cool J, Jam Master Jay, Diddy, Naomi Campbell, and Jay-Z. By turns playful, poignant, thrilling, and inspiring, Dapper Dan: Made in Harlem is a high-stakes coming-of-age story spanning more than seventy years and set against the backdrop of an America where, as in the life of its narrator, the only constant is change. Praise for Dapper Dan: Made in Harlem “Dapper Dan is a true one of a kind, self-made, self-liberated, and the sharpest man you will ever see. He is couture himself.”—Marcus Samuelsson, New York Times bestselling author of Yes, Chef “What James Baldwin is to American literature, Dapper Dan is to American fashion. He is the ultimate success saga, an iconic fashion hero to multiple generations, fusing street with high sartorial elegance. He is pure American style.”—André Leon Talley, Vogue contributing editor and author

Download or read book Fikir dan Percaya Pada Yang Satu written by Alian Jusuf and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2014-11-24 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Didalam buku ini penulis banyak berbicara tentang kepercayaan yang mungkin akan menganggu perasaan pembaca. Dengan itu penulis terlebih dahulu memohon maaf. Banyak dari perkara yang diamalkan dan dianggap Islam adalah merupakan ikutan dari Alkitab Bible Kristian. Para Ulama dan cendiakawan Islam yang mengikut ajaran ini, tidak mahu terkeluar dari aturan mazhab atau takut dihukum atau dipulaukan oleh mazhab mereka. Ajaran yang diambil dari Alkitab Bible Kristian ini telah lama meresap dalam ajaran mazhab-mazhab mereka. Malangnya banyak yang terkeluar dari ajaran Kitab Quran yang sebenar. Didalam buku ini penulis mendedahkan ajaran-ajaran yang dianggap sahih dan digunapakai oleh orang Islam seluruh dunia sebenarnya telah membelakangkan Kitab Quran. Disini penulis mengunakan Kitab Quran sendiri sebagai bukti dimana mereka ini telah jauh tersasar dari landasan yang sebenar. Kita tidak boleh menafikan kebenaran bahawa Nabi Muhammad telah mengunakan Kitab Quran sebagai ajarannya sepertimana yang diperintah oleh Allah. Marilah kita kembali kepada ajaran yang sebenar. Dan fikir sejenak dan terima dengan keyakinan pada Tuhan Yang Satu.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sejarah dan fakta mengenai kota Jerusalem sebahagiannya bersumberkan fakta orang Yahudi yang kemungkinan dipalsukan. Oleh yang demikian, umat Islam hendaklah menerima sebagai sahih fakta yang jelas dari ajaran Islam. Nasihat yang tepat ialah nasihat Rasulullah s.a.w. kepada Saidina Umar al-Khattab menerusi hadis baginda yang bermaksud: Dari Jabir (radiallahuanhu) dari Nabi s.a.w. mengenai peristiwa ketika Umar datang menghadap baginda s.a.w. lalu berkata bermaksud: Ya Rasulullah kami ada mendengar cerita dan nasihat pengajaran yang menarik hati dari orang-orang Yahudi maka bagaimana fikiran Tuan? Bolehkah kami menulis sebahagian daripadanya? Baginda s.a.w. bersabda bermaksud: Adakah kamu merasa ragu-ragu dan serba salah dalam ajaran agama kamu sebagaimana kaum Yahudi dan Nasrani yang telah ragu-ragu dan meraba-raba dalam ajaran agama mereka? Demi sesungguhnya aku telah membawa kepada kamu agama Islam dengan keadaannya yang jelas nyata dan bersih suci dari sebarang perkara syirik dan penyelewengan. Dan kalaulah Nabi Musa masih hidup lagi sudah tentu tidak ada jalan lain baginya selain daripada menurutku. Diriwayatkan oleh Imam Ahmad Hambali dan Baihaqi. History and facts about the city of Jerusalem the Jews partly sourced facts which may be falsified . Therefore, Muslims must accept as authentic facts apparent from the teachings of Islam . The right advice is advice Messenger to 'Umar al - Khattab through his hadith which means : Jabir ( radiallahuanhu ) of the Prophet about the incident when Umar came to the king 's said means: O Messenger of Allah we have heard the stories and lessons to impress advice from Jews then how mind sir? Can we write a part? He s.a.w. said means: Do you feel hesitant and awkward in the teachings of your religion as the Jews and Christians who were in doubt and grope in the teachings of their religion ? Verily I have brought to you the religion of Islam with the situation in a clear and pure of any polytheism and fraud matters . And if the Prophet Moses was still alive of course there is no other way for him apart from following me . Narrated by Imam Ahmad Hambali and Sufism .

Download or read book Kitab Galatia Efesus dan Kolose written by Dr. Tomi Yulianto, ST, M.Pd and published by CV. AA. Rizky. This book was released on 2019-03-03 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buku ini berbicara mengenai Kitab Galatia, Efesus dan Filipi dengan membawakannya kepada aplikasi kehidupan sehari-hari yang dapat dipraktekkan oleh pembaca. Banyak orang Kristen tidak membaca Alkitab secara teratur. Salah satu sebabnya karena mereka agak kesulitan menemukan cara untuk mengaplikasikannya ke dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Yohanes 10: 10 mengatakan: 10. Pencuri datang hanya untuk mencuri dan membunuh dan membinasakan; Aku datang, supaya mereka mempunyai hidup, dan mempunyainya dalam segala kelimpahan. Benarlah perkataan Firman Tuhan di atas bahwa tugas utama iblis dan roh jahat adalah untuk mencuri, mencuri apa? Firman Tuhan. Karena iblis dan roh jahat tahu apabila kita memiliki Firman Tuhan di dalam hidup kita maka kita akan mempunyai cara untuk melawan mereka dengan memiliki pedang Roh yaitu firman Allah. Efesus 6:16-17 16. dalam segala keadaan pergunakanlah perisai iman, sebab dengan perisai itu kamu akan dapat memadamkan semua panah api dari si jahat, 17. dan terimalah ketopong keselamatan dan pedang Roh, yaitu firman Allah, Setelah kita memiliki firman Allah yang adalah pedang Roh, maka akan timbul iman. Roma 10:17 17. Jadi, iman timbul dari pendengaran, dan pendengaran oleh firman Kristus. Iman kita adalah perisai kita di dalam menghadapi si jahat. Oleh karena itu dengan segala cara si jahat akan menghalangi kita untuk mendengarkan akan Firman Tuhan, karena ia tahu apabila kita dengan sungguh-sungguh mendengarkan dan merenungkan Firman Tuhan setiap hari, maka kita akan memiliki senjata untuk menghadapi si jahat. Buku ini mendorong para pembaca untuk semakin mencintai Firman Tuhan, dan mendorong mereka untuk merenungkan Firman Tuhan, mengerti akan Firman Tuhan dan melakukan Firman Tuhan.

This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karena penyebaran COVID-19, pengembangan vaksin dituntut sesegera mungkin. Terlepas dari pentingnya analisis data dalam pengembangan vaksin, tidak banyak dataset sederhana yang dapat ditangani oleh pada analis data menggunakan data science. Kumpulan data dan kode sampel telah dikumpulkan untuk prediksi epitop Bcell, salah satu topik penelitian utama dalam pengembangan vaksin, tersedia secara gratis. Dataset ini dikembangkan selama proses penelitian dan data yang terkandung di dalamnya diperoleh dari IEDB dan UniProt. Sel B yang menginduksi respon imun spesifik antigen in vivo menghasilkan sejumlah besar antibodi spesifik antigen dengan mengenali subregion (wilayah epitop) protein antigen. Sel B ini dapat menghambat fungsinya dengan mengikat antibodi ke protein antigen. Memprediksi daerah epitop bermanfaat untuk desain dan pengembangan vaksin yang bertujuan untuk menginduksi produksi antibodi spesifik antigen. Sel B inilah menjadi dataset utama yang dipakai pada proyek ini. Dataset ini memuat kolom: parent_protein_id, protein_seq, start_position, end_position, peptide_seq, chou_fasman, emini, kolaskar_tongaonkar, parker, hydrophobicity, isoelectric_point, aromacity, stability, dan target. Selanjutnya, Anda akan belajar menggunakan Scikit-Learn, Keras, TensorFlow, NumPy, Pandas, Seaborn, dan sejumlah Pustaka lain untuk memprediksi COVID-19 Epitope menggunakan dataset COVID-19/SARS B-cell Epitope Prediction yang disediakan di Kaggle. Model-model machine learning yang digunakan adalah K-Nearest Neighbor, Random Forest, Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine, Adaboost, Gradient Boosting, XGB classifier, dan MLP classifier. Kemudian, Anda akan mempelajari cara menerapkan model deep learning, CNN sekuensial dan VGG16, untuk mendeteksi dan memprediksi Covid-19 X-RAY menggunakan COVID-19 Xray Dataset (Train & Test Sets) yang disediakan di Kaggle. Folder itu sendiri terdiri dari dua subfolder: test dan train. Terakhir, Anda akan mengembangkan GUI menggunakan PyQt5 untuk menampilkan batas-batas keputusan tiap model, ROC, distribusi fitur, keutamaan fitur, skor validasi silang, nilai-nilai prediksi versus nilai-nilai sebenarnya, matriks confusion, rugi pelatihan, dan rugi akurasi.
