Legend of The Five Rings
By: Rich Wulf
Takuro staggered slightly as he walked out of the sake house, wincing at the bright light of the morning sun. His two comrades laughed as they spilled out on either side, similarly unsteady from the previous evening’s entertainments. Takuro glanced about him with an arrogant sneer. He and his brothers had arrived in this village almost a week ago. This place was unaccusiomed to being visited by samurai; the peasants here were weak and afrais. They had offered food and lodging with qulet terror, asking for nothing in return, clearly petrified by the two swords at his hip. Takuro and his brothers had decided that they liked it here; this village was theirs now. As he looked around, however, he realized that something was different. The peasants all huddled at the edges of the open square begore the sake house. They watched quietly, waiting. There was still fear in their eyes, but it was different somehow. [download]

Mammals
Mammals
By: Thomson Gale
Fossils are body parts of animals that lived very long ago. Not many long-ago mammals are preserved as fossils. But some entire mammal fossils have been discovered, such as a 10-foot (3-meter) woolly mammoth preserved in Siberian frozen ground, and an Ice Age woolly rhinoceros discovered inPoland, preserved in asphalt. Many long-ago mammals lived in a warm, wet world. They ate soft, leafy plants. The earliest known mammals were possibly shrew-like creatures living about 190 million years ago. Later larger mammals occurred, then disappeared, or became extinct. These include the mesohippus, a three-toed horse only 24 inches (60 centimeters) high; a giant pig with a head that was 4 feet (1.22 meters) in length; and the smilodon, a huge saber-toothed cat with canine teeth that were 8 inches (20.3.centimeters) in length. By about 15,000 years ago, long-ago people were hunting mammals with stone-pointed spears. [download]

The Djinn in The Nightingales Eye
The Djinn in The Nightingales Eye
By: A.S. Byatt
There was once a young sailor who had nothing but his courage and his bright eyes but those were very bright and the strength the gods gave him, which was sufficient. He was not a good match for any girl in the village, for he was thought to be rash as well as poor, but the young girls liked to see him go by, you can believe, and they liked most particularly to see him dance, with his long, long legs and his clever feet and his laughing mouth. And most of all one girl liked to see him, who was the miller’s daughter, beautiful and stately and proud, with three deep velvet ribbons to her skirt, who would by no means let him see that she liked to see him, but looked sideways with glimpy eyes, when he was not watching. And so did many another. It is always so. Some are looked at, and some may whistle for an admiring glance till the devil pounces on them, for so the Holy Spirit makes, crooked or straight, and naught to be done about it. [download]

In The Whirl of The Rising
In The Whirl of The Rising
By: Bertram Mitford
The man could hardly drag one step behind the other. He could hardly drag by the bridle the tottering horse, of which the same held good. His brain was giddy and his eyes wearied with the unvarying vista on every hand, the straight stems of the mopani forest, enclosing him; a still and ghastly wilderness devoid of bird or animal life. He stumbled forward, his lips blue and cracked, his tongue swollen, his throat on fire; and in his mind was blank and utter despair, for he knew that he was in the heart of a waterless tract, extending for about a hundred miles, and for over forty hours no drop of moisture of any sort had passed his lips. Forty hours of wandering in the driest, most thirst-inspiring region in the world! He had made a bad start. There had been festivities at FortPagadithe night before, to celebrate the Jameson Raid and drink the health of its leaders. [download]

Introduction to Systems Biology
Introduction to Systems Biology
By: Sangdun Choi, Ph.D.
Systems biology aims at a system-level understanding of biological systems (1,2). The investigation of biological systems at the system level is not a new concept. It can be traced back to homeostasis by Canon (3), cybernetics by Norbert Weiner (4), and general systems theory by von Bertalanffy (5). Also, several approaches in physiology have taken a systemic view of the biological subjects. The reason why “systems biology” is gaining renewed interest today is, in my view, due to emerging opportunities to solidly connect system-level understanding to molecular-level understanding, as well as the possibility of establishing well-founded theory at the system level. This is only possible today because of the progress of molecular biology, genomics, computer science, modern control theory, nonlinear dynamics theory, and other relevant fields, which had not sufficiently matured at the time of early attempts.

Greek and Roman Folklore
Greek and Roman Folklore
By: Graham Anderson
It has been some 80 years since William Halliday produced a short account entitled Greek and Roman Folklore. To attempt to cover the same ground now has presented this author with a challenge of compression. The amount of material available to Halliday and to H. J. Rose in the early part of last century was intractable enough, but the increase since the 1920s in theory alone has made a further survey increasingly necessary and increasingly beyond the scope of any single volume. This is all the more evident because classicists, in particular, tend to classify folkloric materials in so many other ways and tend to avoid folklore as a subject in its own right. I have set out to offer some overview of defi nitions of folklore and some limitations, ancient and modern, in the way we tend to approach it. [download]

Sex for Dummies
Sex for Dummies
By: Ruth K. Westheimer
Humans have been having sex since time immemorial, and not much changed as the centuries slid by. Then in the 1960s, the Pill came out, and the sexual revolution was said to begin. But the past 25 years, which coincidentally is the period when I first became well known, have seen the most major advancements. Many more women who couldn’t have orgasms are now orgasmic. Many older people, particularly men, can have sex into their 90s. People are talking to each other about their sexual needs, and as a result, they’re more satisfied with their sex lives. And although we’ve made progress, more needs to be done. First of all, millions of young people are just beginning their sexual lives. They need to be taught what to do and how to do it. Secondly, millions of adults are still having sex the way cave men and women did in the Stone Age. [download]

Sewing for Dummies
Sewing for Dummies
By: Jan Saunders Maresh
I love to sew. Period. First I get the immediate gratification of completing a project using beautiful fabrics and great timesaving tools. Then I can bask in the personal recognition I get to admire my work and hear praise from my family and friends. On top of that, I save money sewing because I can make things (and make them right) instead of purchase them (and pay to have them altered, if necessary). Wow, what a hobby! I’m betting that after you have a couple of projects under your belt you’ll love to sew as much as I do. Sewing For Dummies, 3rd Edition, is a book for both absolute beginners and experienced sewers. If you’re a stone-cold beginner, you may appreciate that I explain everything necessary to sew beginning-level projects and I don’t assume that you’ve ever even picked up a needle and thread before.

Harmonic Measure
Harmonic Measure
By: John B. Garnett and Donald E. Marshal
Several surprising new results about harmonic measure on plane domains have been proved during the last two decades. The most famous of these results are Makarov’s theorems that harmonic measure on any simply connected domain is singular to Hausdorff measure _α for all α > 1 but absolutely continuous to _α for all α < 1. Also surprising was the extension by Jones and Wolff of Makarov’s α > 1 theorem to all plane domains. Further important new results include thework of Carleson, Jones andWolff, and others on harmonicmeasure for complements of Cantor sets; the work by Carleson and Makarov, Bertilsson, Pommerenke, and others on Brennan’s tantalizing conjecture that for univalent functions__|Ï•_|2−pdxdy < ∞ if 4 3 < p < 4; several new geometric conditions that guarantee the existence of angular derivatives; and the Jones square sum characterization of subsets of rectifiable curves and its applications by Bishop and Jones to a variety of problems in function theory.

Foundations for The Web of Information and Services
By: Dieter Fensel
It is hard to know who first had the idea of creating a language on the World Wide Web that could be used to express the domain knowledge needed to improve Web applications. By the mid 1990s, before most people even knew the Web existed, several research groups were playing with the idea that if web markup (it was all HTML back then) contained some machine readable “hints” to the computer, then we could do a better job of Web tasks like search, query, and faceted browsing. It’s important to note that at that time, the potential power of the Web was still being debated, and there were many who were sure it would fail. However, by 1997 or so, it was clear theWeb was going to be around for a while, and there was a burst of energy going on. [download]

Ethics and War in The 21st Century
By: Christopher Cooker
A new discourse on war? On 3 April 2006, the British Defence Secretary, John Reid, gave a talk before a largely military audience about the rules of twenty-first century warfare. For centuries, he told his audience, conflict between tribes, cities and states had been unbridled and savage. Only gradually had mankind developed a range of conventions that could be applied to constrain and moderate what was, in essence, a brutal activity. Eventually those agreements had become rules which over time had become laws. Much had been achieved, he added, in the current legal frameworks which went by the name of international humanitarian law. However, warfare continues to evolve, and in its moral dimensions we now have to cope with the deliberate regression towards barbaric terrorism. [download]

The entries in this book were chosen primarily by the advisory board (listed on page ix), with advice from contributors when appropriate. Choosing what is to go in reference books is notoriously difficult. There are the subjects that must obviously have entries, and those that must obviously not. In between lies a vast block of those for which an argument can be made for or against. This is where the problems lie, and I expect ourchoices will inevitably raise a few quibbles. Some gaps reflect the nature of the essay and essay scholarship rather than ignorance. There are markedly fewer entries on women, for instance, because historically women’s opinions have not been encouraged, certainly not in written form. Moreover, when women did write they usually chose genres that made them money; the essay has not been known for being lucrative. [download]

Foundations of Mathematical and Computational Economics
By: Kamran Dadkhah
Many believe that mathematics is one of the most beautiful creations of humankind, second only to music. The word creation, however, may be disputed. Have humans created something called mathematics? Then how is it that we increasingly discover that the world, and indeed the universe around us, obey one or another mathematical law? Perhaps to the faithful, the answer is clear: A higher power is the greatest mathematician of all. A worldly answer may be that humans discovered, rather than created, mathematics. Thus, wherever we look, we see mathematical laws at work. Whether humans created mathematics and it just so happened that the world seems to be mathematical, or the universe is a giant math problem and human beings are discovering it, we cannot deny that mathematics is extremely useful in every branch of science and technology, and even in everyday life.

Ellsworth Bunker
Ellsworth Bunker
By: Howard B. Schaffer
When Ellsworth Bunker accepted the invitation of his old Yale rowing coach and friend Secretary of State Dean Acheson to leave a successful business career and take on the difficult assignment of ambassador to Juan Perón’s Argentina in 1951, neither man anticipated that the appointment would lead to Bunker’s becoming one of the outstanding American diplomats of the Cold War decades. Already in his late fifties, Bunker had seen the Buenos Airesembassy as a brief stop on the way to a quiet, retired life, not as the start of a fullfledged, highly distinguished second career in public service. But before he finally left the diplomatic frontlines in 1979 at the age of eighty-five, he went on to become ambassador to Italy, India, Nepal, and, most famously, South Vietnam. As special diplomatic negotiator and troubleshooter, he helped resolve major challenges to U.S interests in such far-flung places as Indonesia,Yemen, Panama, and the Dominican Republic. [download]

They are also specialist in the many aspects of electronics with speciality area in computers, circuit design, equipment design, manufacture of printed circuits, and manufacture of semiconductor materials and devices. Electrical engineers can do any number of jobs, but most will specialize in electronics and some aspect of it. Others will specialize in the generation of electricity and work with utility companies. Some will work with the distribution of electricity, while still other spend their time in research laboratories developing new devices and processes. The electrical engineer has often been described as a practical mathematician. Therefore, the electrical engineer must have a good math background and is required to take many math course in college.

Max Weber was born in Erfurt, Thuringia, on 21 April 1864. His father, Max Weber, Sr., a trained jurist and municipal counselor, came from a family of linen merchants and textile manufacturers of western Germany. In 1869 the Webers moved to Berlin, which was soon to become the booming capital of Bismarck’s Reich. There, Weber, Sr. became a prosperous politician, active in the municipal diet of Berlin, the Prussian diet, and the new Reichstag. He belonged to the right-wing liberals led by the Hanoverian noble, Bennigsen. The family resided in Charlottenburg, then a west-end suburb of Berlin, where academic and political notables were neighbors. In his father’s house young Weber came to know such men as Dilthey, Mommsen, Julian Schmidt, Sybel, Treitschke, and Friedrich Kapp. Max Weber’s mother, Helene Fallenstein Weber, was a cultured and liberal woman of Protestant faith.

Some folks do, most don’t. The reason is simple: Computers are not easy to use. True, a computer is easier to use now than it was 10 years ago, but some things remain cryptic. The help files are mystifying. Technical support isn’t even in English any more! So, you’re left feeling numb and cold and wondering why no one bothers to sit down and explain things to you in plain human terms. Well, wonder no more! [download]

Eqbal Ahmad: Confronting Empire
Eqbal Ahmad: Confronting Empire
By: David Barsamian
It is difficult to think of Eqbal Ahmad in the past tense. As I look at his words, I hear his lilting accent and mellifluous voice ringing in my ears. Eqbal was very fond of Urdu poetry and used it as a tool of analysis. One of its main motifs is paradox. So, I write with a mixture of joy and sadness. Joy that we have this book and sadness that Eqbal is not with us. I remember the gleam in Eqbal’s eye and his enthusiastic response when I first proposed doing a series of interviews for a book. The idea had great appeal to him. He had written the introduction to ne Pen and The Sword, my book with Edward Said. I And he was familiar with my work with Noam Chomsky and Howard Zinn.2 More than that, we met in a curious way, albeit he was older, on the same “kinare” or riverbank. I always felt a connection with Eqbal. I had spent some time in South Asiaand spoke his language, Urdu, and shared his appreciation of and admiration for Indo-Islamic culture. [download]

Documents of Performance
By: Tiffany Stern
As well as being called ‘play-makers’ and ‘poets’, playwrights of the early modern period were frequently known as ‘play-patchers’ because of the common perception that a play was pieced together out of a collection of odds and ends: it was not a single whole entity. The term was unflattering and designed to wound, as was ‘playwright’, with its implication that constructing plays was a craft equivalent to being a cartwright or a wheelwright rather than an art. But, just as ‘playwright’ over time lost its pejorative implications, so ‘play-patcher’ too came to be seen as an unpalatable truth. Well mayRandolphsneer at the poet who makes a ‘Comedy’ out of ‘patches of his ragged wit, as if he meant to make Poverty a Coat of it’, and Wither lament the men who can do little more than ‘patch up a bald witlesse Comedy’ out of ‘rotten-old-worme-eaten stuffe’; there was something ‘patchy’ in the very substance of early modern plays.

Living Vegetarian for Dummies
Living Vegetarian for Dummies
By: Suzanne Havala Hobbs
Vegetarianism has come a long, long way. As a child, I wore a button that said, “Real People Wear Fake Furs.” I’d picked it up at the Ann Arbor Street Art Fair when my older sister was in college at the Universityof Michigan. It was the late ’60s, and it wasn’t much longer before my mother announced to our family that from then on, she would be a vegetarian. She never said why, but for the next several years, the former Wisconsinite ate cheese omelets or cheddar cheese and pickle sandwiches on whole wheat toast for dinner while the rest of us ate the meat she prepared for us. That is, of course, until we kids followed her lead and, one by one and without fanfare, became vegetarians ourselves. [download]

Molecular & Cell Biology for Dummies
Molecular & Cell Biology for Dummies
By: Rene Fester Kratz
Molecular and cellular biology isn’t just something that happens in a lab; it reaches out and touches your life in many ways, seen and unseen. Genetically modified organisms, designer cancer drugs, forensic science, and even home pregnancy tests are all applications of the science and techniques of molecular and cellular biology. Gaining an understanding of molecular and cellular biology can help you make informed decisions about your lifestyle and health. Understanding cells and how they function is fundamental to all other fields of biology, including medicine. All living things are made of cells, and scientists can trace every response, every function of larger organisms back to the structure and function of cells. Genetic diseases are a dramatic example of how important one cell type, one protein, and one gene can be to an organism. [download]

Life Coaching for Dummies
By: Jeni Purdie
Afew years ago I left my well-paid and prestigious job with a global corporation to venture into the scary world of self-employment as a life coach. Many of my colleagues who I’d come to know and love over the years wished me well and asked exactly what I’d be doing. ‘Well,’ said I, ‘I suppose what I’m really interested in is inspiring people to find the right balance, enjoyment, and meaning in their lives.’ ‘Oh,’ they replied, and a faraway look came into their eyes, ‘I could really do with some of that.’ Then their gaze focused back on their overflowing desk and the ringing phone. ‘But I don’t see how I can possibly give up my job.’ And they smiled, reached for the phone, and did what they knew they did best. I found their response very interesting because it summed up the precise feelings I’d wrestled with for three long years before finally taking my personal plunge. [download]

Living Dairy Free for Dummies
Living Dairy Free for Dummies
By: Suzanne Havala Hobbs
Why would anyone think that humans need milk from a cow to be healthy? After all, milk is tailor-made for the species it came from. Dogs drink milk from dog mothers, and giraffes drink milk from giraffe mothers. And cow’s milk, for example, is formulated to help calves grow and develop an enormous skeleton in a matter of several months. Human skeletons are small in comparison to cow skeletons, so why would a human need milk that’s formulated for fast, enormous bone growth? Humans are designed to get nourishment from human mothers when they’re infants. Human milk contains the nutrients they need in the amounts they need for the growth and development of the human body (not the cow body). The milk-drinking phase doesn’t last long either a year to a few years, at most. [download]

Classical Mythology

On a hot day some twenty-five centuries ago, Socrates and one of his companions, Phaidros, were walking alongside the cool stream of the Ilissos outside the walls ofAthens. “Tell me, Socrates,” said Phaidros, “wasn’t it from the Ilissos somewhere around here that Boreas is said to have carried off Oreithyia?” He was thinking of the myth according to which a daughter of the king of Athenswas playing on the banks of the stream when suddenly the god of the north wind abducted her, carrying her off to his northerly kingdom. “Yes, that’s what they say.” “Was it from here, then?” “No,” Socrates replied, “the spot is actually some distance downstream, at the place where you cross over to the precinct of Agra. There is an altar of Boreas somewhere around there.” Phaidros asked if Socrates believed the story was true. [download]

Gesundheit ist eine wichtige Vor aussetzung für die gesellschaftliche Teilhabe in einem umfassenden Sinne, die auch die Partizipation an Kultur, Politik, Arbeitsmarkt, Wirtschaft, Wohlstand und gesellschaftlicher Entwicklung etc. einschließt. Daher hat Gesundheit bei den meisten Menschen einen hohen Stellenwert. So gilt Gesundheit als ein fundamentales Gut, im Verständnis vieler Menschen sogar als eines der höchsten Güter überhaupt. Die hohe Wertschätzung von Gesundheit geht allerdings in vielen Fällen nicht mit einer gesundheitsbewussten Lebensweise einher.

Brutal
By: Kevin Weeks and Phyllis Karas
By South Bostonstandards, my childhood was surprisingly normal. I grew up in the Old Colony Housing Project, the fifth in a family of six kids, with two older brothers, two older sisters, and one younger sister. The odds were good with a family of six in Southie that one would run afoul of the law. I was that one. Our apartment on 8 Pilsudski Way, apartment 554, was about 1,200 square feet, with four small bedrooms, a parlor, and a kitchen. My parents were in one bedroom; we three boys were in the other. My older sister Maureen had her own bedroom, and Patty and Karen shared theirs. I was born on March 21, 1956, and, at fifty, am two years older than Karen, who is the youngest of the six of us. Billy, at fifty-eight, is the oldest. [download]

Blake and Conflict

For the majority of William Blake’s life, Britainwas a nation at war. Countries, ideologies and individuals clashed in the ferment of the American, French and Industrial Revolutions.Britainexperienced unprecedented levels of mobilization, chronic food shortages, riots and the repression of civil liberties in ‘Pitt’s terror’. Blake recoiled with horror from ‘the English Crusade against France’ and the consequences of living in a militarized state, where freedom seemed to be crushed under ‘the Iron Wheels of War’ (‘Anns. to Watson’, E613; Jerusalem, 22: 34, E168). Yet Blake’s works do not figure conflict simply as a destructive force. If the first plate of the illuminated book Milton decried attempts to ‘prolong Corporeal War’, it also accused ‘the Camp, the Court, & the University’ of seeking to ‘depress mental [War]’ (E95).

Java Game Programming for Dummies
Java Game Programming for Dummies
By: Wayne Holder
This book shows you the techniques that make games tick, and gives you dozens of working Java code examples. In addition, each example is backed up by detailed explanations that fully deconstruct the code so that you can see how everything works. You can start from these working examples and customize them, use the parts to create entirely new games, or simply use them as a source of ideas for writing your own custom game code. While this book does, where necessary, discuss a little theory, the real heart of the book is intended more like a hands-on auto shop class than a physics lecture. After all, understanding how a water pump works is a lot easier if you can hold one in your hand and see where it fits on a real car engine. Likewise, understanding game code is a lot easier if you can examine each part of the code in detail and see where it fits in the overall structure of a working program. [download]

The enterprise begins when you carefully put the first two computers together, and complexity grows with every step thereafter. Haphazard IT building practices can easily lead to an enterprise network that is poorly planned or composed of random, one-off projects undertaken as standalone goals. An e-mail consolidation project can unexpectedly derail concurrent licensing projects intended to vastly reduce expensive software licensing costs by carving the authentication domain into separate silos unable to share resources. A server virtualization project may run into difficulties if not coordinated properly with server consolidation projects to make sure that sufficient bandwidth and host resources are available when systems are transferred from physical to virtual states.

The intent of this book is to provide you with an introduction to and overview of IBM Workplace Services Express (WSE). WSE is a fairly new product (it came upon the world at the end of 2004) that helps teams (both big and small) work together, collaboratively and in real time, to get projects of all kinds (both big and small) done. What’s most exciting, in my humble opinion, about WSE is how it puts so many tools and technologies in the hands of small and medium-sized businesses tools and technologies that have been traditionally only available to large enterprise companies. WSE can help a little guy feel like one of the big guys. [download]

Kabbalistic Handbook for The Practicing Magician
Kabbalistic Handbook for The Practicing Magician

There are many fields of investigation and experimentation that fall under the general heading of Occultism: from general scrying to scrying in Spirit Vision; from Divination and its two most popular forms, the Tarot and the Pendulum, to the less used Geomantic Divination; from methods and techniques for developing the openly declared psychic functions of telepathy, concentration, clairaudience, clairvoyance, and telekinesis, to astral projection, mental projection, and mediumship; from magic in all of its broadband spectral majesty, to its specific practices of invocation and evocation, planetary and talismanic magic, Sephirotic and Path working investigations, to name but a few of the areas within the magical arts proper. All of these occult designated realms are, perhaps surprisingly, addressed by the Kabbalah. For instance, one may not ses how the faculties of telekinesis and telepathy could be covered by Kabbalistic doctrine. [download]

All About The Foreign Exchange Market in The United State
By: Sorn Y. Cross
Each of these publications presents a lucid and informed picture of the foreign exchange market and how it operates, filled with rich insights and reflecting a profound understanding of the market and its complex mechanisms. Roger Kubarych’s report, written twenty years ago, provided a valuable analysis of the foreign exchange market that is still read and widely appreciated by persons interested in gaining a deeper understanding of that market. But the foreign exchange market is always changing, always adapting to a shifting world economy and financial environment. The metamorphosis of the 1980s and ‘90s in both finance and technology has changed the structure of the market and its operations in profound ways. It is useful to reexamine the foreign exchange market from today’s perspective. [download]

Every year is different: growing something new, experimenting with new varieties, and experiencing all that the British weather can throw at you (perfect weather one year and rotten weather the next!). No matter how many years you spend in the garden, you never get to know everything and you can always improve. But with every year you gain more experience, and the successes you have make your yearning for knowledge get even stronger. Growing your own crops gets you outside in the open air and gives you plenty of exercise. More importantly, growing crops gets you back in touch with the seasons and with nature something that modern living has moved us away from. You experience the near miracle of seeds germinating. You nurture your seedlings and young plants, do your best for them, battle against their enemies, enjoy the abundance of your plants, and finally feed your body with food that’s fresh and richer in nutrients than anything you can buy.

All About Stocks
All About Stocks
By: Esme Faerber
There are many compelling reasons why investors should invest in common stocks. For one, people are living longer and are going to need more money for retirement, and for medical and other expenses. Consequently, they are going to have to save more and invest it in assets that earn satisfactory rates of return to fund these increasing expenses. The key to success is to set aside more for savings and then invest it wisely. Investments are made to generate future purchasing power that will keep ahead of inflation and provide investors with a sense of financial security. If rates of return earned on these. investments are meager, this sense of security can quickly change to a sense of frustration. In order to generate future purchasing power, rates of return need to exceed the rate of inflation and cover the taxes paid on the earnings. [download]

Genetics for Dummies
Genetics for Dummies
By: Tara Rodden Robinson
Genetics affects every aspect of life on earth. As a science, it’s one of the fastest growing fields because it has untold potential for good and for ill. Although complicated and diverse, all genetics comes down to basic principles of heredity and how DNA is put together. So it turns out that genetics, in many ways, is surprisingly accessible. Genetics is a bit like taking a peek behind a movie’s special effects to find a deceptively simple and elegant system running the whole show. I may sound like a geek, but genetics is my favorite subject. If you’d told me I’d end up feeling this way when I took my first genetics course, I would have laughed. At first, I hated genetics (and I barely passed!). But as I learned more, I was hooked. Now, my career follows the genetics of birds in hopes of helping to conserve the natural beauty that makes our world such a wonderful place to be. [download]

All About Futures
All About Futures
By: Russel Wasendorf
Philosophers throughout the centuries have said that if God didn’t exist, man would have invented Him. The creation of futures markets may have been just about as inevitable a concept. Human beings have always had a love-hate relationship with the future: They can’t wait for things to get better, and they fear what will happen tomorrow. On a more mundane level, businesspeople have at least as much difficulty dealing with the unknown as the average person. How can they set firm prices for the products they sell or manufacture if they don’t know what they’ll have to pay for the raw materials they use? This question is at least 6,000 years old, dating back to when a futures market in rice is thought to have developed in China. By the Middle Ages there was already a sophisticated futures purchasing system for wheat and wool. [download]

Excel 2010 Just The Steps for Dummies

A single worksheet contains 16,374 columns across the top (stretching from column A to column XFD) and 1,048,576 rows down the side. That’s over 17 billion cells in a single worksheet.
