 20th Century Popular Culture In Museums And Libraries


20th Century Popular Culture In Museums And Libraries


$11.2


Although libraries and museums for many centuries have taken the lead, under one rational or another, in recovering, storing, and displaying various kinds of culture of their periods, lately, as the gap between elite and popular culture has apparently widened, these repositories of artifacts of the present for the future have tended to drift more and more to what many people call the aesthetically pleasing elements of our culture. The degree to which our libraries and museums have ignored our culture is terrifying, when one scans the documents and artifacts of our time which, if history in any wise repeats itself, will in the immediate and distant future become valuable indices of our present culture to future generations. As Professor Schroeder dramatically states it, “No doubt about it, it is the contemporary popular culture that is the endangered species.”     The essays in this book investigate the reasons for present-day neglect of popular culture materials and chart the various routes by which conscientious and insightful librarians and museum directors can correct this disastrous oversight.

We attend life-enhancing seminars, listen to inspirational audio programs, and read dozens of “self-help” books by amazing people. No doubt when you leave these seminars or finish that latest book or audio program, you have a spring in your step, a smile on your face, and a brand new zest for life. Yet, unfortunately for many, the feeling doesn’t last. This is the point where you ask yourself, “How can I apply all I learned from that seminar/audio program/book to my world?” This book is about bridging the gap between business and spirituality. I’m just an ordinary woman, in an ordinary job, living in ordinary suburbia, so if I can do this, you can, too! It is possible to bring your spirituality to the office, so that you don’t have to be a Buddhist monk, a Yoga instructor, or a New Age storeowner to live within your center every day. All of this is meant to help you, and remind you that, in fact, you are your own “guru.” Dawn Staszak has been working in the office environment for over nineteen years including commercial and non-profit, large and small companies, both as a permanent and temporary employee.

 Assessment of Biodiversity for Improved Forest Planning


Assessment of Biodiversity for Improved Forest Planning


$289


The ‘Global Biodiversity Strategy’ signed in 1992 in Rio de Janeiro, and the resolutions at the Ministerial Conferences on the Protection of Forests in Europe in Strasbourg, 1990, and Helsinki, 1993, commit the signatory states to monitor nationally the state of biodiversity and to sustain the characteristic natural variation in the country. Sustainability and long-term planning are the two terms best describing the philosophy of traditional forest management practices. However, the traditional planning techniques are not primarily developed to maintain sustainability of biodiversity. The gap between the international commitments and the practices in forest assessment and management is obvious. This publication presents experience in methodology for assessing and monitoring the variation of ecosystems and habitats in relation to biodiversity conservation and for integrating biodiversity in regional planning of forest management and land use. The state of the art in the field of natural resource assessments with special reference to forest biodiversity is reviewed, progress in integrating data on biodiversity in forest management planning is presented and the information needs regarding biodiversity conservation and the question to what degree assessment methods for forest biodiversity can be simplified for practical applications are discussed. The book is intended for researchers and practitioners in the field of forest and environmental planning and environmental policies.

At the end of sophomore year, Jill, Hilton, and Lorylyn made a pact to live their lives to the fullest over the summer, and they set out to do exactly that. As Brady and Brooke take a whirlwind tour through Spain and Portugal, the girls, now honed and accomplished liars, spend more and more drunken nights at Landon’s and feel less and less guilty about deceiving their parents. Hilton’s relationship with Landon takes on a new intensity. Jill, devastated by the gap between herself and Todd that’s been created by his relationship with Melanie, gets caught up in a fast and reckless summer fling with a flirtatious, charming boy. Lorylyn struggles with her still very-present feelings for Brady, and Hillary appears suddenly and inexplicably bored with Dirk, although she claims it’s really no big deal.While everyone outwardly parties the summer away and puts on the pretense of being happy, tumultuous forces with the power to change everything are stirring and building behind the scenes.Brady’s constant thoughts of Lorylyn, Kara and Andy’s budding relationship, Melanie’s growing jealousy of Jill, and destructive, devastating secrets kept by one person and by groups of people-secrets no one else could even begin to imagine.About the author:Daisy Jordan grew up in Kendallville, Indiana, graduated from East Noble High School, and attended Purdue University.

 Bid/No-bid decisions in the international construction industry


Bid/No-bid decisions in the international construction industry


$62


Bid/no-bid decisions in international construction markets are considered difficult, being characterized by its uncertainties and complexities, especially in today’s competitive market. Some authors claim that many companies still utilize tools and methods that are fragmented, incomplete and rudimentary based on “personal intuition” or “previous-experience-based” (Han & Diekmann 2001a/b). On the other hand, other authors emphasize that most of the bidding models found in the literature ‘remained in academic circles and did not find their way into the practical world’ (Wanous et al, 2000). The focus of this work is to make a contribution towards the reduction of the gap between theoretical and practical bidding decision models and contribute to the development of models that could satisfactorily support bidding decisions for international construction projects. An investigation of practical bid/no-bid decision models is performed combined with an evaluation of the degree of applicability of theoretical models in practice. An important contribution can be done not only to the academic field but also to managerial one if future research focuses on the improvement of practical models.

 Buddhism Of The Heart


Buddhism Of The Heart


$18.99


Despite its 800-year history and standing as one of the most popular branches of Buddhism in the world, Shin Buddhism has been passed on primarily through an oral tradition, leaving few books written about it. Buddhism of the Heart addresses that gap. Using anecdote, reflection, humor, and more, this book invites readers into the world of Shin stories and metaphors, passed down, elaborated, and re-energized generation after generation. The truth of Shin Buddhism’s sacred storytelling, explains author Jeff Wilson, lies in the degree to which it points the hearer on toward deeper humility, awakening, and thankfulness. He shows how the tradition moves us beyond the petty ego as we come closer to the “entrusting heart,” the heart that is rooted in boundless gratitude and considerate awareness of others. A major new voice in Western Buddhism, Wilson evokes the warmth of Robert Fulghum and the nonjudgmental spiritual struggling of Anne Lamott in this accessible, affirming work for the modern seeker.

How Do Employers View An Online Degree?

If you considering pursuing an online course of study, there are probably several major questions on your mind. Most likely, the biggest of these questions is how will your current or future employer view an online degree. Although there is no clear cut answer to this question, there are several major factors you can take into consideration. It is important that you take the time to thoroughly consider and understand all of these factors.

The first factor that you need to take into consideration is the generation gap. The generation gap refers to the distance between generations. For example, if you are a twenty-five year old, there is an obvious gap between you and someone that is fifty-five. The generation gap applies to online education in the way that older generations view the internet and anything that is part of it. For some older generations, they do not actually understand the internet or what it can do, and therefore they are threatened or even almost afraid of it. For this reason, they may view something like an online degree as trivial or not even legitimate. Although this may seem like a major problem, it is probably not as bad as you may think.

The generation gap factor actually leads into the second factor that you need to take into consideration when taking a look at how employers view an online degree. The second factor that you need to be aware of is accreditation. Accreditation is that separates legitimate online education programs from scams that are worth more than taking your money. It is vitally important that you choose an online degree program that is accredited. By choosing an accredited degrees, you can ensure that you are investing your time and resources into the correct program. Now, you may be asking yourself how the generation gap and accreditation are related. Accreditation is one factor that can help ease the worries of members of older generations. Accredited degrees allow an employer to look at the program of study that you followed to earn your online degree. By having access to this information, an employer (even one that is a member of an older generation) can see that the online education you received was just as valuable as the education that someone attending a four-year college or university receives.

When determining how an employer views an online degree, the final factor you need to take into consideration is your own performance. This factor is arguably the most important of all the factors that have been discussed. When an employer is evaluating your life experience degrees, once they get over any initial apprehension that your degree was obtained via the internet, they will be scrutinizing your personal performance in your program of study. Just as they would look at someone’s grades at an actual four-year, your employer will be very interested in how well you did in the courses you took in order to obtain your degree. Therefore, it is very important to take your online education very seriously. It is not enough just to obtainan online degree, it is necessary that you excel in the program that you study. By performing to the best of your ability, your employer will see that you are a committed individual that takes important things seriously.

As you can see, there are quite a few factors that impact how an employer will view your online degree. Although there is not a specific answer, as long as you choose an accredited online program and take your online education seriously, any employer that reviews your resume will give your online degree the same respect that they give to a degree obtained from a four-year institution.

The central atom is sp hybridized. 1 of the p orbitals hybridizes with the s orbital to generate sp hybridized orbitals that interact in a sigma bond. The other 2 p orbitals have a p-p interaction (pi bond).

CH2=CH-R

The CH2 is sp2 hybridized

CH3-NH2

The nitrogen is sp3 hybridized. All 3 p orbitals hybridize with the s orbital, but two of the electrons exist as a non-binding lone pair in an sp3 hybridized orbital.
