FREMONT, Calif., Aug. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Power Corporation (NYSE MKT: DPW - News) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014.
Digital Power's revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014 were $2,642,000, an increase of 19% from revenue of $2,227,000 for the same quarter ended June 30, 2013. Net income for the quarter ended on June 30, 2014 was $149,000, an increase of 219% from the loss of $125,000 for the quarter ended on June 30, 2013. Gross margin in the second quarter ended June 30, 2014 was 41%, an increase from 40% reported in June 30, 2013. Operating income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014 was $151,000, an increase of 99% from $76,000 for the same quarter ended June 30, 2013. Operating expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 increased to $932,000 compared to $810,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 mainly as the result of higher stock option compensation expenses and headcount additions in the Company's direct sales force. The Company recorded no impairment expense related to its investment in Telkoor in the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to a write down of $196,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
Commenting on the results, President and CEO, Amos Kohn, stated: "We experienced a significant improvement in revenue, operating income and net income in our results compared to the second quarter ended June 30, 2013 and the previous quarter ended March 31, 2014. We recorded stronger defense related shipments from our European operation and continue to strategically plan to further develop our domestic product portfolio. Our commercial products' revenues and gross margins are highly dependent on the timing of customer delivery schedules which were fortuitous for us in the second quarter of 2014. Due to the schedule of customer deliverables in current backlog, we expect lower revenues and margins at least through the three months ended September 30, 2014.
We continue to pursue our strategic plan of developing complete customized power solutions and enhancing our standard product portfolio with innovative, high density and efficient power supplies at ever increasing power levels.. The focus on a complete solution for power applications is well received by our major telecom, medical, military and the industrial customers.

Choosing the right cloud for your workloads is a balancing act that can cost your organization time, money and aggravation - unless you get it right the first time. Economics, speed, performance, accessibility, administrative needs and security all play a vital role in dictating your approach to the cloud. Without knowing the right questions to ask, you could wind up paying for capacity you'll never need or underestimating the resources required to run your applications.

Up until last year, enterprises that were looking into cloud services usually undertook a long-term pilot with one of the large cloud providers, running test and dev workloads in the cloud.

The NAB raised questions Oct. 16 over apparent discrepancies between the results of recent FCC tests of prototype white space devices presented in a report this week and an "upbeat endorsement" of letting such devices into the band in the document's executive summary.
"It would appear that the FCC is misinterpreting the actual data collected by their own engineers," said NAB Executive VP Dennis Wharton. "Any reasonable analysis of the OET report would conclude that unlicensed devices that rely solely on spectrum sensing threaten the viability of clear TV reception."
The 149-page report details the results of tests conducted by the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology this year of five prototype white space devices. One of its major finds is that strong DTV signals on adjacent channels significantly diminish the ability of the prototypes to detect the presence of TV and wireless mic signals.
NAB pointed to other negative findings, including:
· malfunctioning of a prototype from Microsoft · wild fluctuations in the ability of the prototypes to sense the presence of TV signals · the inability to accurately determine which wireless mic channels were in use
· malfunctioning of a prototype from Microsoft · wild fluctuations in the ability of the prototypes to sense the presence of TV signals · the inability to accurately determine which wireless mic channels were in use
In the statement, the NAB called on the commission to seek public comment on the report before moving forward. "With the transition to digital television looming and tens of millions of TV viewers at risk, the stakes are too high for this proposal to be rammed through without thoughtful deliberation," Wharton said.

Very amusing and creative. I had only seen the bubble gum shoe before. I had no idea he was so prolific.
I love humor and playfulness in design. So much of it can be oppressively serious, with designers taking themselves way too seriously. The "form follows function" crowd seems to overlook the importance of objects that simply delight beyond their apparent use. I am glad there is room in the world for a broad spectrum that ranges from pure function to whimsy.
I like that it pokes fun at high heel shoes culture. I couldn't even imagine being expected to wear these things as my mother was ruining her feet after a few decades with the airlines mostly tending computers.
Fortunately my wife is pretty tall and shapey even without heels so I suppose I found a way to cheat the whole high heel thing, but seriously it is more fun having a partner who can make a run for it if needed than having to carry her over your shoulder.
How does your wife not wearing heels allow YOU to 'cheat the whole high heel thing'? WTF? That sounds really self-centered. What about HER comfort and happiness? Oh, right- it's all about her looking good for you (good thing she's 'shapey'!/s), not about the health and comfort of her feet. Got it.

Mmmmm, Pretty Picture too David, I like the way you got the glint of sun peeping through, very fitting for the situation. GS ¬Mike
Beautiful shot David. You have taken one here before, I believe. Inspirational place to worship though I guess a little cold in winter.
"I will lift up my eyes to the hills", who couldn't resist that I wonder?
It sure looks like it's in the boondocks, as you folks say, and very pretty they are too.
A great looking place and shot Mr B., cheers, - D.
Nicely edited photo !
Regards Gyöngyi
Symmes Chapel is known locally as Pretty Place Mike - a fitting title I think. The sun-glint was a bonus just by moving up and down the steps (carefully).
I have indeed taken one here before Keith - but I still regard photography like fishing. I will do it in the same place and don't even mind if I catch the same fish again. Each event is so slightly different. I will probably take this shot again (in fact I cannot wait). :-)
It is out of the way David - I had lived locally for 8 or 9 years before I discovered it.
There was less editing in this shot Gyöngyi than you would imagine. It really was a wonderful morning.
Many thanks my friends for a great response to this image. I appreciate the encouragement to keep getting up before breakfast and go out in the world.
Best wishes to y'all - David
I understand the editing of the composition.
Sorry! :)
(✿ܓGyöngyi✿ ܓ
Hey don't worry Gyöngyi I think we understand each other very well!!!!
Best wishes dear friend - David
It clearly is no miracle why the place has been built. Very strong version, David.
You don't happen to have any closer looks at the scenery? IMO it looks wonderful right now down there also. Or are you too used to that already? Greetings :)
Beautiful photo, David. LOVE the starburst! Very well done! like
Sixten you are right it is gorgeous scenery and I will NEVER get used to it. This may not be the last version of this photograph you see.
Many thanks Patty I am glad that you like this.
Many thanks folks and warmest greetings from Colorado - David
I've become cynical religion-wise. I do, though, love the look of churches - from the outside. If I had to spend time inside a church it would preferably be something like this. Photo makes the cross a great focal point - but I especially love the 'altar' being a backdrop of mountains. L&F.
Best wishes, Brian.
I'm not at all religious Brian but I really do like coming here at sunrise!!! As I think you understand.
It really really is a great backdrop ain't it?
Many thanks - David
Photo taken in Greenville County, SC, USA

Hooray! The perfect bag for my folding bike. It is lightweight, padded, and extremely well made. I put my bike in it and stow it in the very small area in the back of my front seats in my car. The padding keeps the bike from harming the interior of my car, and the bag keeps any bike trail dirt and grease from getting on my upholstery. It is easy to put on my bike with a well made zipper, interior pocket for bike-related items like gloves, and the exterior fabric is tough yet not stiff.

Environmental Law, the Economy and Sustainable Development: The United States, the European Union and the International Communityby Richard L. Revesz
View All Available Formats & Editions
Pub. Date: 01/28/2004
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
This book provides a comparative analysis of environmental regulation in multi-jurisdictional legal and political systems, focusing on the United States, the European Union, and the international community. Each of these systems must deal with environmental interdependencies that cross local borders, in some cases creating regional problems, such as acid deposition, ozone type smog, and pollution of shared water bodies. Some transjurisdictional environmental problems are global, including stratospheric ozone depletion, climate change, and the loss of biodiversity. Other environmental problems, however, are localized in their effect on health and the environment.

Bega Cheese looking for dairy consolidation
Bega Cheese may still be on the prowl for other dairy companies to snap up.April 1, 2014 9:35am
Bega Cheese may still be on the prowl for other dairy companies to snap up.
The company started last year's bidding frenzy for Warrnambool Cheese and Butter and although missing out to Canadian company, Saputo, ended up with a multi million bonus when it sold its Warrnambool shares.
Bega chairman Barry Irvin told Tatura Milk suppliers at last week's meeting that the board still wants to see further consolidation of the dairy industry to improve value creation.
In February Mr Irvin said Bega Cheese ''has the balance sheet strength, business profile and performance that positions it well to pursue that value creation''.
A mystery buyer recently snapped up 9.4 million shares recently for $5.55 per share, representing an investment of $52 million in Bega.
Tatura milk is also in a stoush with the Australian Tax office over whether the company was a co-operative in 2009, 2010 and 2011, and the ATO has served up a tax bill of $13 million.
The tax office served the notice on parent company Bega on March 4.
Mr Irvin said he didn' believe ''the tax office is always right'' and had gone back to its advisers to put a further submission to the office.

25 historical quotes about the Declaration of Independence, July 4th and America
Whether the country should celebrate on July 2, when the Continental Congress approved a resolution for independence; July 4, when the Declaration of Independence was adopted by the Continental Congress; or August 2, when most delegates are believed to have signed the document, is irrelevant when it comes to celebrating the beliefs in the rights of man advanced by the declaration and the government that eventually grew from it.
Here's a look at some quotes pertaining to this critical time in America's history, from those who helped lay the groundwork for the penning of the Declaration of Independence to those who helped write the historic document and those impacted by it years after the fact.

I enjoyed all of these quotes. I am also reminded of Edmund Burke's warning that the King needed to reconcile with the Colonies in America or lose them forever. His warning that England's policy toward America was foolish was widely criticized to which he replied - "Magnanimity in politics is not seldom the truest wisdom; and a great empire and little minds go ill together."

I loved all of these quotes. I wonder what each of those patriots would say or do if they were here today and saw how the country is and what they would say to our politicians. It is sad and frighting that we don't have political leaders Republican or Democrat,or a people that have the passion or the heart for independence and freedom that the leaders of the revolution had. Today we trip all over political correctness and allow the country slide into self destruction.

Here's another quote:
"You seem... to consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy. Our judges are as honest as other men, and not more so. They have, with others, the same passions for party, for power, and the privilege of their corps... Their power is the more dangerous as they are in office for life, and not responsible, as the other functionaries are, to the elective control. The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with the corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots. It has more wisely made all the departments co-equal and co-sovereign within themselves."
Thomas Jefferson, in 1820
The states are no longer free nor independent as long as we abide the opinions of a judicial oligarchy. We are a nation founded on self-governance and rights derived from our creator, not the government. To that end, I will not abide it. I will never recognize or perform any act which requires my endorsement of SSM.

Of interest is that John Adams was referring celebrations for July 2. That is when it was approved. The signing began on July 4. Most of the delegates signed it that day, but it took about two months to get the rest of the signatures on it.

Senator Ian Macdonald has launched an attack against Labor by saying the opposition was more concerned about public servants than indigenous Australians.
His tirade came as the Coalition government he represented was slashing jobs from the department looking after indigenous affairs.

Ian Macdonald in the Senate
Indigenous people don't need public servants in Canberra telling them how to live, says government minister. Video from Senate Hansard.
Mr Macdonald was responding to comments from Labor which was asking questions in the Senate about reports of low morale in the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet's indigenous affairs sections.
The department had been dealing with hundreds of redundancies as well as machinery of government restructures in the past year.
"Typical of the ALP, more interested in public servants in Canberra than they are about indigenous Australians who live around the north of our country," Mr Macdonald said.
"What indigenous people want is to be treated like every other Australia. They want a job. They want to be able to own their house.
"As long as you've got Labor around they'll be treated as second class citizens that need someone else to hold their hand.
"They want their child to be educated so they have a chance in this world."
He said the Coalition's plan attempted to give indigenous Australians economic opportunities.
"Given their own resources, indigenous people can look after those issues far better than public servants sitting in their ivory towers in Canberra," he said.
Labor Senator Jan McLucas had previously said PM&C staff were "good public servants" who were used to change "but not like this".
Mr Macdonald responded by saying "we don't want teams of public servants in Canberra trying to tell indigenous people in northern Australia how to run their lives".
"Senator McLucas' concern for sacked public servants in Canberra over the interests of indigenous people just amazes me."
Indigenous Affairs Minister Nigel Scullion said there were no complaints when he had breakfast with PM&C indigenous affairs staff Wednesday morning.
"They're getting on with the job and bouyant," Mr Scullion said.

I'm bad at these posts because I have the memory of a goldfish. I barely remember what happened yesterday let alone the various things that transpired over the course of an entire year. But I'll try, because everyone else is doing it and I'm a follower.
So there were several moments in 2015 that had me like:
But I'll focus on the stuff that had me like:
This year was huge for me in terms of my career as an author. In the past, I wasn't sure if I had a "career" so much as an aspiration but the ball got rolling in January of 2015 when I signed my first contract with Dreamspinner, and it hasn't stopped since then. Since 2013, I'd only professionally published one book but now I'm the proud author of *four*.
This year I signed four single-book contracts with Dreamspinner—Sutphin Boulevard, Stygian, Sunset Park, and First and First—and two multi-book contracts with Riptide. I'm not giving much details on the latter at this point because those books won't be out until Q4 2016 and 2017, but I'll be talking about it in the next several months. 😉
I also got an agent, which is mind blowing. Getting an agent always seemed to be a mystical process that I didn't understand (much like the publishing world in general), but bugging awesome author friends with questions led to several emails and an hour-long phone call with Courtney Miller-Callihan, and representation! It's truly an honor to have an agent who is dedicated to queer romance, and who understands me as a writer. All of the heart emojis for CMC!
And speaking of author friends… 2015 was an amazing year in terms of the people I've met and befriended. Having experienced professionals I can ask for advice, opinions, or an ear to vent to, is incredible. One of those friendships led to the creation of the Hassell & Hall FB Group, which was a random idea that took off at the speed of light. The original idea was not to necessarily have a promo group, but to have a space to interact with readers in general. That idea turned into a little community that carries on perfectly fine even when Alexis and I are preoccupied with other stuff. It's a lot of fun.
Health-wise, I'm also in a good place. My day job isn't as satisfying as I'd hoped it would be, but I have time to write that I didn't have when I was in NYC, so there's that. For as much as I complain about moving, I can honestly say there's no way I would have been able to accomplish so much in my writing career had I still been commuting 4 hours a day in the city. I still want to move back, though.
So what does 2016 look like?
Honestly, it looks scary and intense. I have a completely jam packed writing schedule, and I'll probably have long periods of going AWOL on social media (except to grump about something on Twitter) while I try to keep my deadlines.
In terms of books, First and First will be out in April, but there are other things on the horizon that I can't talk about just yet. If you're curious about First and First, I'll be posting the first teaser in the Hassell & Hall FB group on New Year's Eve, and sending it out to my newsletter.
I hope you guys check it out, and I hope you're excited for Caleb's story. 🙂
I'm probably leaving out a ton of stuff, but that's all I have for now! I hope you guys had a great 2015.

Piracy: NCC hits end users
SECURITY| June 14, 2012, 4:12 p.m.
By Kokumo Goodie, Lagos, Nigeria
Officials from the Nigerian Copyright Commission (NCC) yesterday raided the head office premises of a well-known Estate Management Firm, Jide Taiwo & Co in Victoria Island, Lagos. The raid, which followed a tip off and undercover surveillance by the NCC, resulted in the seizure of suspected high quality counterfeit Microsoft software.
The usual clampdowns have been on channel distributors, but NCC is now focusing on end-users as well.
In the raid which lasted about 45 minutes, different Microsoft software suspected to be counterfeit was discovered. This included copies of the Microsoft Operating Systems Windows XP and Vista, Microsoft Office 2007 and Microsoft Office 2010.
Jide Taiwo & Co could also not provide the client access license for its Microsoft Windows 2003.
Some of the physical items taken away from the premises included media for Microsoft Office 2010, keys for Microsoft Windows XP, Microsoft Vista and Microsoft Windows 7. All these items have been sent to Microsoft's Ireland office for confirmation. An investigation into the matter is currently ongoing.
"Counterfeit software is a cankerworm that is eating through the fabric of societies all over the world. Its prevalence has a lot to do with the sophisticated and organised syndicates of pirates, but also can be traced to the demand for them," said Augustine Amodu, Deputy Director of Enforcement at NCC.
"Consumers of pirated software must also realise that they will be punished for contravening the law and putting people's livelihoods as well as the economy of the country as a whole at risk. To win this fight against copyright infringements, it must be a joint effort of regulators as well as consumers."
As of 2011, PC software piracy rates in Nigeria stood at 82%, with around USD250 million lost to local businesses. Local Nigerian businesses have had difficulty competing with counterfeiters, who price their goods at below-market levels.
"This enforcement action helps in getting consumers to understand the risk they are exposed to when they engage in the illegality of purchasing counterfeit software or mis-licensing software as a whole. It also helps to protect genuine business whose true purpose is to add value to the customer." says Amodu.
Software piracy in organisations is often difficult to trace as the end users already have the software loaded on their systems, however, there is technology that makes detection possible and regulatory and enforcement authorities now rely on that to broaden their reach to the demand market. Counterfeit software also includes fake hologrammed CDs and fake Certificate of Authenticity labels that look like the real thing and which are sold as complete software packages.
"End users should be careful when purchasing software as the promises made saying there is no difference between the genuine and counterfeit are not true. Consumers looking for a bargain should know that the price you could pay in data loss or identity theft by using counterfeit software that is vulnerable to computer viruses, malware and hackers far outweighs the gains you have made from the difference in pricing.," warned Ugochi Agoreyo, Anti-Piracy Manager for Microsoft Anglophone West Africa. "Many times, it's just not worth the losses."

How is it that some people have more than one city???
Answer from: LadyL
You have to build an academy, buy scholarships, recruit scholars then attack other players with berserkers and guardians, and send in your scholars (one at a time) to lower a cities loyalty to zero - its then yours.

Mary Temples Light Installation, Soo Kims Photographs and Mario Ybarra Jr.s Bring me the head of
{mosimage}Mary Temples Light Installation and Soo Kims Photographs at Sandroni Rey
Mary Temples wall paintings look like light from a nearby window casting shadows of outdoor greenery. Temple creates her site-specific installations in places where there is usually no natural light source, the end result being a convincing and artificial glow that works so well with the architecture, it may go unnoticed. Because of their play with the environment and the fact that they are actually impossibilities, the paintings have a hallucinatory effect on the viewer. This quality undermines their surface calm in an exciting way. Soo Kims cut photographic collages, mounted between clear Plexi, also deal with rearranging and changing our perception about interiors and exteriors. Be sure to see the two smaller Kim pieces in the office, photos of wintry trees with the cutout shapes of small birds that are quite beautiful.

The title of this local artists solo exhibition seems to be a reference to the 1970s Peckinpah film about bounty hunters which was shot in Mexico. The 20 drawings lining one of the walls, titled The Ballad of Chalino Sanchez, compose Ybarras tribute to the popular singers tragic life. Since Sanchez was murdered in Mexico after receiving a death threat onstage (he migrated illegally to the U.S. after killing his sisters rapist), he has become a legend with many songs written in his honor. Ybarra addresses politically charged issues through iconic Mexican-American references and signifiers from popular culture. The exhibition includes sculpture as well as drawing, painting and video.

The complex envelope (CE) alternating-direction-implicit finite-difference time-domain (ADI-FDTD) algorithm augmented by perfectly matched layers (PML) is extended for lossy anisotropic dielectric media. The extension is based on a two-step discretization of complex envelope fields that factors out, on one hand, into modified Maxwell's curl equations including complex stretching PML parameters and, on the other hand, into constitutive equations involving frequency-dependent nondiagonal permittivity and conductivity tensors that are implemented by auxiliary differential equations in the time-domain. The proposed method is validated against conventional FDTD results and illustrated to calculate FabryProt resonances in photonic crystals with degenerate band-edge, where very good accuracy is maintained with Courant numbers as large as 100.

Bill Bryson has been an enormously popular author both for his travel books and for his books on the English language. Now, this beloved comic genius turns his attention to science. Although he doesn't know anything about the subject (at first), he is eager to learn, and takes information that he gets from the world's leading experts and explains it to us in a way that makes it exciting and relevant.
"Very informative, fun to listen to"
No city has had as powerful and as enduring an impact on Western civilization as London. But what made the city the perfect environment for so many great developments? How did London endure the sweeping historical revolutions and disasters without crumbling? Find the answers to these questions and more in these 24 fascinating lectures.
"Good Starting Place or Refresher"
The historical twentieth century began with the First World War in 1914 and ended seventy-five years later with the collapse of the Soviet Empire in 1989. The short century saw the end of European dominance and the rise of American power and influence throughout the world. The twentieth century was an American century-perhaps the American century.
"Dissapointingly General"
This concise, accessible introduction provides an analytical narrative of the main events and developments in Soviet Russia between 1917 and 1936. It examines the impact of the revolution on society as a whole--on different classes, ethnic groups, the army, men and women, youth. Its central concern is to understand how one structure of domination was replaced by another.
"Inaccessible ad a little scary"
After the unprecedented destruction of the Great War, the world longed for a lasting peace. The victors, however, valued vengeance even more than stability and demanded a massive indemnity from Germany in order to keep it from rearming. The results, as eminent historian Norman Stone describes in this authoritative history, were disastrous. In World War Two, Stone provides a remarkably concise account of the deadliest war of human history, showing how the conflict roared to life from the ashes of World War One.
A Short History of Nearly Everything is Bill Bryson's quest to understand everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization. He takes subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us, like geology, chemistry, and particle physics, and aims to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. In the company of some extraordinary scientists, Bill Bryson reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.
"Superbly whimsical"
A Short History of Nearly Everything is Bill Bryson's quest to find out everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization - how we got from there, being nothing at all, to here, being us. His challenge is to take subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us and see if there isn't some way to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. It's not so much about what we know, as about how we know what we know.
"If you only own one audio book, this is it!"
In 1914, a new kind of war came about, bringing with it a new kind of world. World War One began on horseback, with generals employing bayonet charges to gain ground, and ended with attacks resembling the Nazi blitzkriegs. The scale of devastation was unlike anything the world had seen before: 14 million combatants died, a further 20 million were wounded, and four empires were destroyed. Even the victors' empires were fatally damaged.
"Well told, well narrated; needs maps"
This clear and concise new introduction examines all the major debates and issues using a wide range of well-known examples. It discusses the challenge of using verbal and written language to analyze a visual form. Dana Arnold also examines the many different ways of writing about art, and the changing boundaries of the subject of art history. Topics covered include the canon of Art History, the role of the gallery, 'blockbuster' exhibitions, and the emergence of social histories of art.
"a pretentious academic book:"
This Very Short Introduction looks at Africa's past and reflects on the changing ways it has been imagined and represented, both in Africa and beyond. The author illustrates important aspects of Africa's history with a range of fascinating historical examples, drawn from over 5 millennia across this vast continent.
"Buyers beware"
Bill Bryson was struck one day by the thought that we devote more time to studying the battles and wars of history than to considering what history really consists of: centuries of people quietly going about their daily business. This inspired him to start a journey around his own house, an old rectory in Norfolk, considering how the ordinary things in life came to be.
"Best use of a credit"
In this Very Short Introduction, Michael Cook gives vivid accounts of the Koran's role in Muslim civilization, illustrates the diversity of interpretations championed by traditional and modern commentators, discusses the processes by which the book took shape, and compares it to other scriptures and classics of the historic cultures of Eurasia.
"Very helpful"
The conflict between Palestine and Israel is one of the most highly publicized and bitter struggles in history. In this accessible and stimulating Very Short Introduction, Martin Bunton clearly explains the history of the problem, reducing it to its very essence - a modern territorial contest between two nations and one geographical territory. Adopting a fresh and original approach, each section covers a twenty-year span, to highlight the historical complexity of the conflict throughout successive decades.
"Solid introduction"
These heartwarming stories, from a forgotten 19th-century master, depict the lives of women in the Louisiana of a hundred years ago. The title story, "Charlie," introduces us to a spirited tomboy on the verge of becoming a young lady. "Tante Cat'rinette" is the story of an old black Creole. "A Matter of Prejudice" shows us the changes in a French grandmother. "Beyond the Bayou" tells of a black Creole woman who saves the life of a young boy. "A Pair of Silk Stockings" relates a young mother's temporary escape from poverty, while "Regret" tells the story of a spinster who must deal with 4 young children. Kate Chopin (1850-1904) is one of America's finest writers of short stories. These unabridged selections demonstrate her fine insight. Jacqueline Kinlow's performance is well-suited to the spirit of the works.
This Very Short Intoduction integrates the political, social and cultural history of the Spanish Civil War. It sets out the domestic and international context of the war for a general readership. In addition to tracing the course of war, the book locates the war's origins in the cumulative social and cultural anxieties provoked by a process of rapid, uneven and accelerating modernism taking place all over Europe.
"Very Short Introductions is the best collection!!"
The best of O. Henry's stories: "The Gift of the Magi", "The Voice of the City", "The Ransom of Red Chief", and more.
The history of myth is the history of humanity; our stories and beliefs, our curiosity and attempts to understand the world, link us to our ancestors and each other. Myths help us make sense of the universe. Armstrong takes us from the Palaeolithic period and the myths of the hunters right up to the "Great Western Transformation" of the last 500 years and the discrediting of myth by science.
"Good but not unabridged"
There are many stories we can tell about the past, and we are not, perhaps, as free as we might imagine in our choice of which stories to tell, or where those stories end. John Arnold's addition to Oxford's popular Very Short Introductions series is a stimulating essay about how people study and understand history. The book begins by inviting us to think about various questions provoked by our investigation of history, and then explores the ways in which these questions have been answered in the past.
"Wonderful Listen"
Here is the extraordinary story of the unfolding of life on Earth, told by Michael J. Benton, a world-renowned authority on biodiversity. Ranging over four billion years, Benton weaves together the latest findings on fossils, earth history, evolutionary biology, and many other fields to highlight the great leaps that enabled life to evolve from microbe to human - big breakthroughs that made whole new ways of life possible - including cell division and multicellularity, hard skeletons, the move to land, the origin of forests, the move to the air. He describes the mass extinctions, especially the Permian....
In The Company, the largely unknown history of the joint-stock company is presented by the editors of Economist. One of history's greatest catalysts, the joint-stock company has dramatically changed the way human beings live, work, and conduct business. With companies now affecting the world on a global scale, it is more pressing than ever before to understand this driving force.
