Adventure Guide To Vermont 2nd Edition (Hunter Travel Guides)
pdf | 2.4 MB | Author :Elizabeth L.Dugger
Book Description :
The Pre-Writing Handbook for Law Students describes a detailed, systematic approach to the task of analyzing a legal problem. The Handbook is designed to help students focus on and become competent in the process of legal analysis that precedes their work on early legal writing products such as memos, case briefs, and other documents. The Handbook is designed with first-semester legal writing students in mind, but it is also suitable for use in academic support courses and in pre-law programs.
The Handbook teaches the process of legal analysis by walking students through a series of repeatable steps they can apply to any legal scenario. By practicing and internalizing these analytic steps, students will experience a smoother writing process that translates into a better written product.
Each chapter of the Handbook contains several useful features:
-Frequent metacognitive checkpoints text boxes that prompt students to pause or stop in their pre-writing work and assess their own efficiency and effectiveness. -Concrete examples of how the steps in the pre-writing process actually work in two fully developed recurring legal scenarios. -End-of-chapter recaps that summarize the desired results of the students work during each step of the pre-writing process.
The second edition includes three new Independent Practice Exercise sets (in addition to the one that appeared in the first edition). These Independent Practice Exercise sets reinforce the steps in the pre-writing process and encourage students to work on their own to internalize those steps. The Independent Practice Exercise sets, which increase in complexity, are ideal for classwork, for out-of-class assignments, or as vehicles for graded writing assignments.
The Teacher's Manual includes advice on how to incorporate the Handbook's new approach into an existing first-semester legal writing course; complete keys to all of the exercises within the text; pre-writing worksheets for each scenario and Independent Practice Exercise set; and samples of written products (objective memos, trial briefs, demand letters, and/or client letters) for use with the recurring scenarios and the Independent Practice Exercise sets. The thorough content of the Teacher's Manual should enable professors to use the Handbook effectively with minimal additional preparation.

Americas Discord The Coming Crisis Of The 2020s And The Triumph Beyond
epub | 10.12 MB | English | Author :George Friedman | 2020 | Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group
Book Description :
The master geopolitical forecaster and New York Times bestselling author of The Next 100 Years focuses on the United States, predicting how the 2020s will bring dramatic upheaval and reshaping of American government, foreign policy, economics, and culture.
In his riveting new book, noted forecaster and bestselling author George Friedman turns to the future of the United States. Examining the clear cycles through which the United States has developed, upheaved, matured, and solidified, Friedman breaks down the coming years and decades in thrilling detail.
American history must be viewed in cycles-particularly, an eighty-year "institutional cycle" that has defined us (there are three such examples-the Revolutionary War/founding, the Civil War, and World War II), and a fifty-year "socio-economic cycle" that has seen the formation of the industrial classes, baby boomers, and the middle classes. These two major cycles are both converging on the...

Application Of Fractional Calculus
pdf | 6.34 MB | Author :Keith B. Oldham
Book Description :
The product of a collaboration between a mathematician and a chemist, this text is geared toward advanced undergraduates and graduate students. Not only does it explain the theory underlying the properties of the generalized operator, but it also illustrates the wide variety of fields to which these ideas may be applied. Rather than an exhaustive treatment, it represents an introduction that will appeal to a broad spectrum of students. Accordingly, the mathematics is kept as simple as possible.
The first of the two-part treatment deals principally with the general properties of differintegral operators. The second half is mainly oriented toward the applications of these properties to mathematical and other problems. Topics include integer order, simple and complex functions, semiderivatives and semi-integrals, and transcendental functions. The text concludes with overvie of applications in the classical calculus and diffusion problems.

Applied Stochastic Differential Equations
pdf | 3.79 MB | Author :Simo Särkkä and Arno Solin
Book Description :
Stochastic differential equations are differential equations whose solutions are stochastic processes. They exhibit appealing mathematical properties that are useful in modeling uncertainties and noisy phenomena in many disciplines. This book is motivated by applications of stochastic differential equations in target tracking and medical technology and, in particular, their use in methodologies such as filtering, smoothing, parameter estimation, and machine learning. It builds an intuitive hands-on understanding of what stochastic differential equations are all about, but also covers the essentials of Itô calculus, the central theorems in the field, and such approximation schemes as stochastic Runge-Kutta. Greater emphasis is given to solution methods than to analysis of theoretical properties of the equations. The book's practical approach assumes only prior understanding of ordinary differential equations. The numerous worked examples and end-of-chapter exercises include application-driven derivations and computational assignments. MATLAB/Octave source code is available for download, promoting hands-on work with the methods.

Black Directors In Hollywood
pdf | 8.69 MB | Author :Tseng Information Systems, Inc.
Book Description :
Hollywood film directors are some of the world's most powerful storytellers, shaping the fantasies and aspirations of people around the globe. Since the 1960s, African Americans have increasingly joined their ranks, bringing fresh insights to movie characterizations, plots, and themes and depicting areas of African American culture that were previously absent from mainstream films. Today, black directors are making films in all popular genres, while inventing new ones to speak directly from and to the black experience.
This book offers a first comprehensive look at the work of black directors in Hollywood, from pioneers such as Gordon Parks, Melvin Van Peebles, and Ossie Davis to current talents including Spike Lee, John Singleton, Kasi Lemmons, and Carl Franklin. Discussing 67 individuals and over 135 films, Melvin Donalson thoroughly explores how black directors' storytelling skills and film techniques have widened both the thematic focus and visual style of American cinema. Assessing the meanings and messages in their films, he convincingly demonstrates that black directors are balancing Hollywood's demand for box office success with artistic achievement and responsibility to ethnic, cultural, and gender issues.

Building Websites For Return On Investment
pdf | 16.46 MB | Author :Paul Boag
Book Description :
Beating the stock market isn't very difficult. Yet almost all mutual funds consistently fail. Hedge fund manager Andreas F. Clenow takes you behind the scenes to show you why this is the case and how anyone can beat the mutual funds. Momentum investing has been one of very few ways of consistently beating the markets. This book offers you a unique back stage pass, guiding you through how established hedge funds achieve their results.
The stock markets are widely misunderstood. Buying and selling stocks seems so simple. We all know what stocks are and what the companies produce. We're told that stocks always go up in the long run and that everyone should be in the stock markets. Oversimplifications like that can end up costing you.
In the long run, the major stock indexes show a performance of five to six percent per year. For that return, you will have to bear occasional losses of over half your capital and be forced to wait many years to recover your money. Yes, in the long run stocks do go up. But the story isn't that simple.
Stocks on the Move outlines a rational way to invest in the markets for the long term. It will walk you through the problems of the stock markets and how to address them. It will explain how to achieve twice the return of the stock markets at considerably lower risk. All rules and all details will be explained in this book, allowing anyone to replicate the strategies and research.
Andreas F. Clenow is the chief investment officer and partner of ACIES Asset Management, based in Zurich, Switzerland. Starting out as a successful IT entrepreneur in the 90s boom, he enjoyed a stellar career as global head of equity and commodity quant modeling for Reuters before leaving for the hedge fund world. Having founded and managed multiple hedge funds, Mr. Clenow is now overseeing asset management and trading across all asset classes. He is the author of best-selling and critically acclaimed book Following the Trend and can be reached via his popular website .FollowingTheTrend.com.
