Book Description
UNIVERSAL SOLDIER meets DEADPOOL! June 26, 1971. Location: Mr. Happy Food & Drink, outside El Paso, Texas. John J. Ramirez is a Vietnam veteran. While serving in Southeast Asia in the late 60’s, he was a test subject for an experimental combat performance enhancement drug – essentially a super-soldier serum. Now stateside, Ramirez can’t remember his own name or how he ended up here. His life has become a series of disjointed flashes – past and present, real and imaginary, continuously overlapping and morphing. And then there's that annoying Grim Reaper only he can see. The chatty bastard won't stop talking and calling him “bro.” Meanwhile, elsewhere in El Paso, Father Karras is a pastor who has determined he is a Knight of the Apocalypse, descended to Earth against the will of a too-forgiving God. Holding a sawed-off shotgun named Salvation, he sets out to do his work. At the Mr. Happy Food & Drink, the paths of these two men are meant to cross. There WILL be blood. A Caliber Comics release.

Transmediations
Author: Niklas Salmose
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000761304
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
This collection offers a multi-faceted exploration of transmediations, the processes of transfer and transformation that occur when communicative acts in one medium are mediated again through another. While previous research has explored these processes from a broader perspective, Salmose and Elleström argue that a better understanding is needed of the extent to which the outcomes of communicative acts are modified when transferred across multimodal media in order to foster a better understanding of communication more generally. Using this imperative as a point of departure, the book details a variety of transmediations, viewed through four different lenses. The first part of the volume looks at narrative transmediations, building on existing work done by Marie-Laure Ryan on transmedia storytelling. The second section focuses on the spatial dynamics involved in media transformation as well as the role of the human body as a perceptive agent and a medium in its own right. The third part investigates new, radical boundaries and media types in transmediality and hence shows its versatility as a method of analyzing complex and contemporary communicative discourses. The fourth and final part explores the challenges involved in transmediating scientific data into the narrative format in the context of environmental issues. Taken together, these sections highlight a range of case studies of transmediations and, in turn, the complexity and variety of the process, informed by the methodologies of the different disciplines to which they belong. This innovative volume will be of particular interest to students and scholars in multimodality, communication, intermediality, semiotics, and adaptation studies.

Book Description
Some Comments from Lens Students I want you to know that in my many years of being a student, you easily rank as the best teacher I have ever had. Your skill and patience has made me infinitely more comfortable with my weapons and myself. The next class you teach, I'll be there in a heartbeat. I'm sure you don't have to be reminded of the multitude of people you have touched and the positive impact you have had on firearms training overall. Bob Patridge Len has taught me to effectively and safely use a handgun and rifle and for that I will always be grateful. I look forward to the time I spend once or twice a week under his instruction. Len has created a wide range of firearms training programs out of virtually nothing and trained a sizeable and competent cadre of firearms instructors who, like me, greatly respects the man. He is engaged with his students and always approachable. Students who have shot much longer than me comment on his great depth of knowledge and ability to improve their shooting. He clearly loves to teach the material and his enthusiasm is contagious. He has a great sense of humor and makes his classes a lot of fun. But in spite of all of this the safety of his students is always his first concern. Dr. Noel Pillman, MD I am a retired police officer and a former police firearms instructor for over 20 years. I have been to numerous firearms training classes over the years but have not had any instructors more professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to what they do then Len Breure. Maurice Merabella "Len was my first real 'tactical' instructor a few years ago. He is a thorough, safe, and well versed instructor. His teaching style is unique in a way that clearly conveys lessons and makes them easy to understand for experienced shooters and novices alike. Len brings a wealth of prior "been there, done that" experience to the table that's an asset to his teaching, and is rarely found in many of the new instructors that have come to the arena since most states have enacted concealed carry laws. I continue to train with a variety of tactical instructors, and am always amazed by how much of the information Len taught me is still the foundation upon which I build." Mike VanMeeteren "I have been fortunate enough to receive numerous training courses that were being taught by Len Breure. In my opinion, Len is one of the best in the business! It is very rewarding to be able to learn from someone who has the experience and knowledge to take tactical training to the next level." Jim Bryant I first meet Len while taking my Minnesota Concealed Carry Course in 2005. Since that time I have taken every course that Len teaches. In my opinion Len is the consummate professional, who teaches with passion and an incredible degree of knowledge. I would strongly urge anyone interested in personal protection to take Lens courses.

Reactive Systems in Java
Author: Clement Escoffier
Publisher: "O'Reilly Media, Inc."
ISBN: 1492091693
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
Reactive systems and event-driven architecture are becoming essential to application design--and companies are taking note. Reactive systems ensure applications are responsive, resilient, and elastic no matter what failures, latency, or other errors may be occurring, while event-driven architecture offers a flexible and composable option for distributed systems. This practical resource helps you bring these approaches together using Quarkus, a Java framework that greatly simplifies the work developers must undertake for cloud deployments. This book covers how Quarkus 2.0 reactive features allow the smooth development of reactive systems. Clement Escoffier and Ken Finnigan from Red Hat show you how to take advantage of event-driven and reactive principles to build more robust distributed systems, reducing latency and increasing throughput, particularly in your microservices and serverless applications. Java developers will also get a foundation in Quarkus, enabling you to create truly Kubernetes-native applications for the cloud. Understand the fundamentals of reactive systems and event-driven architecture Learn how to use Quarkus to build reactive applications Combine Quarkus with Apache Kafka or AMQP to build reactive systems Develop microservices that utilize messages with Quarkus for use in event-driven architectures.
