Josef (Iosif) Vissarionovitsj Stalin (født 1879 i Georgia, død 1953 utenfor Moskva) var Sovjetunionens leder fra 1924 til 1953. Stalins styre var preget av sterk personkult, ekstrem maktkonsentrasjon, og lite omtanke for de hardere konsekvenser av hans politikk. Stalin forsøkte å undertrykke enhver opposisjon gjennom et byråkratisk og vilkårlig terrormaskineri. Overslagene over antall mennesker som mistet livet som følge av tiltak gjennomført under Stalins lederskap er svært varierende, men det antas å dreie seg om millioner over en 23-årsperiode

The latest hot camera is pretty irrelevant if one can't understand what's happening on screen. The key to any narrative is in the dialogue and voice over, but if this is unintelligible or difficult to hear, viewers will soon lose interest. With real world applications and a narrative to keep the reader's interest, Production Sound Mixing is the indispensable guide for film and video audio recording. Written by veteran sound mixer John J. Murphy, the book offers a step by step collaborative journey through the basic physics of sound, concluding with a practical guide of the latest techniques and equipment available to all who are interested in the best audio for their projects. Structured to mimic a 14-week semester, each chapter begins with an audio problem to be solved and ends with a solution drawn from information gleaned from past chapters. Suggested movie scenes that demonstrate the relevant audio techniques will also be included. Equally applicable to studio and location recording, the book is oriented toward commonly accessible environments such as conference rooms, hallways, beaches, car interiors, bathrooms, and so on. The intent is to allow the student to make the best of a location no matter how challenging it might be. Most importantly, this book will make one aware of the potential of sound on screen, for it is truly 50% of the viewing experience.

The history of Jean de Labadie and the Labadists has re- ceived attention through the years. That attention, however, has more often than not fallen short in its tracing of Labadie's 'double migration'. Disaffected with the established church order of his day and motivated by a sense of prophetic mis- sion to establish again the life of the primitive church, this spiritual nomad wandered from France to Switzerland, then to the United Provinces, Germany and Denmark, according to the vicissitudes of the times. As he went, he changed his affiliations from 'high' church ever 'lower', from the bosom of Rome to Calvinism, then to congregational separatism. Thus there has been ample reason to treat Labadie's life and ministry episodically, be it a geographical or denominational episode, and a solid grounding could be had by piecing to- gether several of these (all listed in bibliography part D): M. de Certeau on the Jesuit years; X. de Bonnault d'Houet on his stay at Amiens; A-L. Bertrand on the 'lost years' from Amiens to Montauban; J-H. Gerlach and W. Goeters on the schism at Middelburg; P. Scheltema on Amsterdam; L. Holscher and G. E. Guhrauer on Herford; J. Lieboldt and H. von Schubert on Altona; B.B. James and H. C. Murphy on the colony in Maryland; L. Knappert on that in Surinam; and any number of authorities on the Labadists in Friesland. Yet there are sig- nificant gaps.

Are you interested in using argument-driven inquiry for middle school lab instruction but just aren't sure how to do it? Argument-Driven Inquiry in Physical Science will provide you with both the information and instructional materials you need to start using this method right away. The book is a one-stop source of expertise, advice, and investigations to help physical science students work the way scientists do.The book is divided into two basic parts:1. An introduction to the stages of argument-driven inquiry-from question identification, data analysis, and argument development and evaluation to double-blind peer review and report revision.2. A well-organized series of 22 field-tested labs designed to be much more authentic for instruction than traditional laboratory activities. The labs cover four core ideas in physical science: matter, motion and forces, energy, and waves. Students dig into important content and learn scientific practices as they figure out everything from how thermal energy works to what could make an action figure jump higher.The authors are veteran teachers who know your time constraints, so they designed the book with easy-to-use reproducible student pages, teacher notes, and checkout questions. The labs also support today's standards and will help your students learn the core ideas, crosscutting concepts, and scientific practices found in the Next Generation Science Standards. In addition, the authors offer ways for students to develop the disciplinary skills outlined in the Common Core State Standards.Many of today's middle school teachers-like you-want to find new ways to engage students in scientific practices and help students learn more from lab activities. Argument-Driven Inquiry in Physical Science does all of this while also giving students the chance to practice reading, writing, speaking, and using math in the context of science.

The Kick is a page-turner, based upon private diaries kept over the long life and disjointed times of the poet Richard Murphy. Born (1927) in the relics of a walled demesne near Kilamine, County Mayo, he was shipped out and back twice to the British Crown Colony of Ceylon, where his father was a colonial administrator. Thereafter he was moved every two years or so to a different boarding school for boys, mostly in England, until he won an Oxford scholarship at 17. There he encountered Ken Tynan (a bit older) and C.S. Lewis in extraordinary circumstances. One life story follows another in a continuous, witty, ironical narrative of surprising events.Murphy writes, according to Karl Miller, with candour and dignity, for example about personal issues, such as his ambivalent sexuality at a time of legal intolerance. This once led him into a risk of blackmail or prison in London at the age of 22. But dark events are countered by sea-light in this redeeming book.The fear of death from a German rocket falling on Wellington College in 1944 starts Murphy writing sonnets. He's aware that he's not a born poet and until T.S.Eliot accepts his volume Sailing to an Island for publication by Faber in 1963, he does not presume to call himself a poet.Sheep-farming in the Wicklow Hills and reseeding marginal land with deep-rooting herbs with lovely names, such as chicory, burnet, yarrow and wild white clover, take all his attention during his marriage - to the dismay of his wife. Then after his divorce in 1959, meeting Tony White from London on the quay of Inishbofin, Murphy begins another life as the owner of an old Galway hooker, the Ave Maria, which 'puts Inishbofin on the tourist map', and revives the art of small boat-building in Bofin. Murphy writes with affectionate lack of sentiment about the Protestant gentry from which he comes. The literary milieu in London, Dublin and New York are described with serenely devastating honesty. Here too are disturbing memories of discrimination against Irish Travellers, and of extreme violence in Sri Lanka. The Kick is the record of a lifetime's engagement with the fracturing tensions of personal life and with the more obviously violent legacies of Anglo-Irish history.It demonstrates the qualities that Ted Hughes recognised in Murphy's verse: 'It combines a high music with simplicity, force and directness in dealing with the world of action.'Murphy describes the literary milieus of London, Dublin, and New York and his friendships and encounters with some of the leading postwar writers, including W.H. Auden, Ted Hughes, Sylvia Plath, J.R. Ackerley, Laura Riding, Robert Graves, John McGahern, and Conor Cruise O'Brien.Richard Murphy (born 1927) is one of Ireland's most distinguished poets. He is particularly known for poems that draw on the people, the landscape, and the history of the west of Ireland. His Collected Poems (Gallery Press) was published in 2000. Lilliput Press published Murphy's Poems 1952-2012 with a revised text and appendices in 2013 and The Poetry Book Society gave it a Special Commendation. Murphy's awards include the Cheltenham Award and the American-Irish Foundation Award. The Kick: A Memoir was shortlisted for the J.R. Ackerley Prize for Autobiography.

The meat-eating dinosaurs, or Theropoda, include some of the fiercest predators that ever lived. Some of the group's members survive to this day-as birds. The theropod/bird connection has been explored in several recent works, but this book presents 17 papers on a variety of other topics. It is organized into three parts. Part I explores morphological details that are important for understanding theropod systematics. Part II focuses on specific regions of theropod anatomy and biomechanics. Part III examines various lines of evidence that reveal something about theropods as living creatures.The contributors are Ronan Allain, Rinchen Barsbold, Kenneth Carpenter, Karen Cloward, Rodolfo A. Coria, Philip J. Currie, Peter M. Galton, Robert Gay, Donald M. Henderson, Dong Huang, James I. Kirkland, Yoshitsugu Kobayashi, Eva B. Koppelhus, Peter Larson, Junchang Lu, Lorrie A.

The most important development in studies of the metabolic effects of anes- thetics has been the recent demonstration that anesthetics may alter the rate of transport of metabolites across biologic membranes. The membranes affected include cell membranes as well as mitochondrial membranes. Inhalation anesthe- tics generally have little effect on glycolysis but may sigrllficantly alter oxidative phosphorylation and mitochondrial oxygen consumption. The direct effects of anesthetics on cell metabolism may be overshadowed in vitro by secondary effects anesthetics exert on endocrine balance, organ blood flow, and changes in oxygen and carbon dioxide tensions.

Når 30 år gamle Anna Emerson blir tilbudt jobb som privatlærer for T.J. Callahan på familiens sommersted på Maldivene, takker hun ja uten å nøle. Hvem fristes ikke av et avbrekk fra hverdagen på en tropisk øy! T.J. derimot, har absolutt ikke lyst til å dra fra Chicago. Han fyller snart 17, har hatt kreft og vil nå tilbake til et normalt liv og være sammen med vennene i ferien. Men foreldrene insisterer. Anna og T.J. er på siste etappe til Maldivene i et sjøfly da piloten plutselig får hjertestans, og flyet styrter i havet. Anna og T.J. blir skylt i land, men oppdager raskt at de er strandet på en øde øy. Alt de tenker på, er hvordan de skal kunne overleve. Øya er vakker, og også farlig. Utfordringene er mange, men etter som dagene, ukene og månedene går, begynner Anna å lure på om kanskje det vanskeligste blir å være sammen med en gutt som gradvis er i ferd med å bli en mann.

Broder Thomas og hans assistent Wilfridus blir sendt for å undersøke saken til Cecilia, en merkelig og synsk kvinne som lever utenfor byen. Kanskje er hun en kjetter, eller har hun enda skumlere motiver? De to blir umiddelbart forledet av Cecilias holdning, og lytter fascinert når hun forteller om sin ungdom i Tyskland. Hennes fortelling er en fortelling om tap og sorgfulle vandringer, men også om trøstende musikk og det religiøse livet. Imens begynner andre hendelser å oppta munkene; et uhyggelig, rituelt mord, en alkymists avsløring og forræderi mot Henry III. Alt ser ut til å ha innvirkning på Cecilias skjebne, og Thomas og Wilfridus blir fanget i et nett av intriger og korrupsjon.
