Book Shrinkwrapped

Download or read book Shrinkwrapped written by Michael Grossman and published by I Michael Grossman. This book was released on 2009-03 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a bible belt midwestern town where corporal punishment was seen as positive parenting, Michael Grossman's teachers sent him to see a Freudian psychoanalyst at age 7 -- the first in a parade of therapies that would include Rogerian bear-hugs, Gestalt dream analysis, Rolfing, Bioenergetics and even LSD. Sitting beside the author on a succession of "shrink's" couches the reader follows his progress through one defense after another until he finally achieves a joyful capacity to care for others. Untangling the complex, sometimes abusive family relationships that enmeshed his Midwestern boyhood in the mid-20th century, the author finally uncovers fundamental truths that lead to a profound transformation. By turns funny, poignant and shocking, Shrinkwrapped is a story of hope, of growing insight and ultimately of love reborn.

Connected eBooks provide what you need most to be successful in your law school classes. Contracts in Context: From Transaction to Litigation, covers contract law from a transactional perspective, including: A contract's structure and terms, Contract formation legal requirements, andThe negotiation, drafting, and performance of contracts, as well as the litigation of contracts, including a review of a contract's interpretation, enforcement, and remedies. Contracts in Context: From Transaction to Litigation explores why parties enter into contracts, how written contracts are customarily structured, and how and why parties use contract design and terms to achieve their goals. The book is unique because it introduces students to customary contract provisions, and walks students through the lifecycle of a contract, including (i) pre-formation activities such as due diligence, preliminary negotiations, and contract drafting, (ii) contract formation, performance, and amendment, and (iii) dispute activities, such as interpretation, enforcement, defenses, and remedies. The book explores how parties "contract around" default requirements of the law, in addition to satisfying mandatory aspects of the law, through contracts. The book describes the role of both the transactional lawyer and litigator in working with contracts. It presents much of the material in expository fashion rather than only or primarily through cases. This allows students to learn the doctrine more easily. It also allows for more time on applying the law to new situations. The book challenges students to apply contract law through transactional and litigation practice and simulation problems, which are adaptable to the classroom and asynchronous setting. New to the Second Edition: Additional materials covering the professional identities of attorneys, in addition to their professional responsibilities. Revised practice problems for students to apply the contract law doctrine and private ordering principles they have learned. Expanded discussion of the role of contracts and contract law in widening and correcting power imbalances. Several new cases to enhance the learning experience. Professors and students will benefit from: Material presented on contract design and terms so that students understand how contracts are used in practice by businesspersons and how contract law supports this private ordering. Many examples of contract language to demonstrate why and how parties customize contracts to further their goals. Discussion of the role of the transactional lawyer in working with contracts so that students can begin to develop important transactional skills and wrestle with some of the professional dilemmas transactional lawyers frequently face. Explanations of contract law and other material presented through expository text to give students a more comprehensive and clearer view of what limits the law imposes on their private ordering through contracts and which requirements can be contracted around. A large set of problems, many of which involve tasks assigned to new transactional lawyers and litigators, to allow students to learn the material through active participation and critical thinking.

In Sober Faith, Payton Skky and her girlfriends are in their senior year at their Georgia high school and loving every minute of it. But the rest of Payton's crew has strayed from God and continues to make bad decisions. While chasing after a good time, her friends begin experimenting with alcohol, drugs, and sexual sin.

Book excerpt: The Autodesk® Inventor® 2018: Design Variations and Representations learning guide contains topics that teach you how to efficiently create and represent designs based on existing geometry. Using this learning guide, you will learn how the iFeature, iPart, and iAssembly tools can be used to leverage existing geometry to quickly and easily create additional or slightly varied geometry, and how iMates can be used to define geometry placement in an assembly. The remaining chapters in the learning guide focus on how you can simplify a model to create positional configurations to evaluate components’ range of motion (Positional Representations), create simplified geometry to share with customers while protecting your intellectual property (Shrinkwrap and Assembly Simplification), and how to manage working with large assemblies (Level of Detail Representations). The topics covered in this learning guide are also covered in the following ASCENT learning guides, which include a broader range of advanced topics: - Autodesk® Inventor® 2018: Advanced Assembly Modeling - Autodesk® Inventor® 2018: Advanced Part Modeling Objectives - Create and place an iFeature. - Use the Copy command to duplicate features in a model or between models. - Create a table-driven iFeature. - Edit an iFeature. - Create an iPart that can generate different configurations of a model. - Insert standard or custom iParts into an assembly. - Replace an iPart in an assembly with a new iPart instance. - Modify an iPart factory. - Use a table-driven iPart to create an iFeature. - Build iMate constraints into parts or subassemblies. - Combine multiple iMates into a Composite iMate group. - Manually or automatically match iMates of parts in an assembly. - Control the order in which iMate pairs are previewed by using the Match List functionality. - Vary constraint settings in iParts by including iMates. - Create and place an iAssembly. - Edit an iAssembly Factory. - Create and edit different positional representations of an assembly by overriding the existing settings of an assembly. - Create a Shrinkwrap part that is a simplification of the original component. - Selectively determine which assembly components to include in a simplified view and use that information to create a new part model. - Define bounding box or cylindrical geometry to represent assembly components and use that information to create a new part model. - Combine the use of a simplified view, envelopes, and visibility settings to create a new simplified model. - Display a system-defined Level of Detail (LOD) Representation. - Simplify the display and create user-defined LOD Representations in an assembly. - Replace a complex component for a simpler one using a Substitute Level of Detail Representation.
