Book Description
“Quite a read. It's a post-post - apocalyptic fiction filled with action, drama, and the will to survive.” –Library of Lashea “Wow! Where do I even start with this book? The one thing I can say with absolute certainty is that this book will grip you . . . and won't let you go until you finish it.” –A Dose of Reviews Nick Burke’s family is trapped on Ground 134. A new quarantine erected in the middle of the night seals off his neighborhood from the rest of the city. But Nick isn’t sick and his family isn’t, either. In fact, no one seems to be sick. More disturbing still, rumors circulate that quarantines on distant Grounds are becoming permanent, the affected people never heard from again. If he stays, he risks his family becoming sick or worse. The only way out is to break laws that carry a penalty of death. Fearing for his life and the safety of his family, Nick joins forces with a local group. But can he trust anyone with the lives of his family? Seven hundred years ago, a city walled itself off from the rest of earth's population, becoming N. Aarde. Decades after first containment, N. Aarde expanded upward, becoming a world unto itself. The inhabitants of this city-world have boomed to over eighty million people, but the history of why the world was built and what lies outside has been lost. This world is Nick's world.

Book Description
People love to experience supernatural happenings. You may have experienced some of these in your life""a miracle, answered prayer, a touch from God, a supernatural healing, an angel experience""and not always realized that it was the hand of God. God's enlightening handiwork S.K.Y. will take you back to the Bible era in Roman times with Nero and the apostle Simon Peter, John Mark, and Andrew. You will gain insight into Bible times through a look at the family life of Simon and Anna. These characters exhibit the same human feelings as in our modern day such as portrayed in the fictional death of Anna's father. Peter's life spills over onto John Mark's when he finds himself running and hiding on a ship with Peter's writings in his hand. The rough and ruthless Mugface with Etan, his cat, become unforgettable characters. Can Mugface be trusted? Mark's mother knows Leisa and the great Herodias in whose house Leisa works along with her father. Then one day a smile from a fish peddler man in the Jerusalem courtyard came Leisa's way while she was shopping. Andrew was a good brother to Simon Peter, both sharing a common grief. In an intriguing way, Andrew's life interconnects with Leisa's. Was it love, a touch, a smile, or was it laughter? Leisa ponders this question while holding Andrew's supernatural S.K.Y. sandals.

Foundations of Probabilistic Logic Programming
Author: Fabrizio Riguzzi
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000923215
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 548
Book Description
Since its birth, the field of Probabilistic Logic Programming has seen a steady increase of activity, with many proposals for languages and algorithms for inference and learning. This book aims at providing an overview of the field with a special emphasis on languages under the Distribution Semantics, one of the most influential approaches. The book presents the main ideas for semantics, inference, and learning and highlights connections between the methods. Many examples of the book include a link to a page of the web application http://cplint.eu where the code can be run online. This 2nd edition aims at reporting the most exciting novelties in the field since the publication of the 1st edition. The semantics for hybrid programs with function symbols was placed on a sound footing. Probabilistic Answer Set Programming gained a lot of interest together with the studies on the complexity of inference. Algorithms for solving the MPE and MAP tasks are now available. Inference for hybrid programs has changed dramatically with the introduction of Weighted Model Integration. With respect to learning, the first approaches for neuro-symbolic integration have appeared together with algorithms for learning the structure for hybrid programs. Moreover, given the cost of learning PLPs, various works proposed language restrictions to speed up learning and improve its scaling.

One Hundred Years Of General Relativity: From Genesis And Empirical Foundations To Gravitational Waves, Cosmology And Quantum Gravity - Volume 2
Author: Wei-tou Ni
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814678511
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 636
Book Description
The aim of this two-volume title is to give a comprehensive review of one hundred years of development of general relativity and its scientific influences. This unique title provides a broad introduction and review to the fascinating and profound subject of general relativity, its historical development, its important theoretical consequences, gravitational wave detection and applications to astrophysics and cosmology. The series focuses on five aspects of the theory: The first three topics are covered in Volume 1 and the remaining two are covered in Volume 2. While this is a two-volume title, it is designed so that each volume can be a standalone reference volume for the related topic.
