Book Description
Ancient monuments all over the world - from the Pyramids of Giza, to Mexico, to the ancient sites of China - are also awakening, reacting to a brewing crisis not of this earth, connecting to each other in some kind of ancient global network. A small group of scientists is assembled to attempt to unravel the mystery. What they discover will change the world. Imagine that 12,000 years ago it really did rain for 40 days and 40 nights. That storms reigned supreme. Imagine that survivors of human civilization really were forced to take to boats or hide out in caves on mountaintops. Then consider that these same myths from around the world predict this kind of devastation will occur time and again. What could cause such a catastrophe? What occurs in nature with such frightening and predictable regularity? A pulsar. But this is not just any pulsar - the ordinary type that pulses once a second, a minute, or even a week. This pulses once every 12,000 years and sends out a gravity wave of such ferocity it beggars belief. Not only that, it's closer than anybody has ever imagined. For it lives in our own backyard. It is the Sun.

Decipher the Smoke
Author: Nora Gupta
Publisher: Gatekeeper Press
ISBN: 1662954603
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 35
Book Description
In her debut chapbook of poetry, Decipher the Smoke, Nora Gupta “scratch[es] through the pretty pink, the hot pink, the girly-girl pink universe” to reveal the true, indiscernible colors of girlhood. The browned bulb of childhood. The way bodies slither under white LED gas station lights into self-discovery. Through these poems, Gupta asks her reader to reckon with—and perhaps even decipher—the thinning line between girlhood and grief, one often stepped right over without second thought. Indeed, while reckoning with the simultaneous devastating loss of a close family member and realization of her own impending womanhood, Gupta navigates a world of escalation and apocalypse to uncover what—shade by shade—girlhood truly means to her.

Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
I am being what they call an incorrigible scamp Under normal circumstances the very idea of speaking about myself would leave me a frantic wreck. This however to me is not a normal circumstance. I am an open book if one could ever strike up the nerve to ask. I like to understand the very deep consequences offending our answers. Feeling through the situation in all its aspects tends to strike a certain terror in people that some are ill prepared for. Life journies through us all. We enter one another's lives only to depart in what seems like mere moments later. This is all okay but the varied amount of emotion produced from such encounters leaves so many faltered. The bound leather volume events of my life aspire me to become as only to what a dream could pronounce. To say from known events and my reasons behind them tell two separate stories. I would like to say that my life began when my first word hit paper but that would be a fallacy on my part. I am shaped by my life before those moments in ways that I do not begin to comprehend. I see these events and am left baffled by my outcome. Choosing how to live this brief time we get between what I was taught to be and by how I get it wrong and by getting it right, this was quite a decision. By what one was taught or by what one learnt. I am being what I feel is a happy person.

Mathematical Ciphers
Author: Anne L. Young
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821837303
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
"A cipher is a scheme for creating coded messages for the secure exchange of information. Throughout history, many different coding schemes have been devised. One of the oldest and simplest mathematical systems was used by Julius Caesar. This is where Mathematical Ciphers begins. Building on that simple system, Young moves on to more complicated schemes, ultimately ending with the RSA cipher, which is used to provide security for the Internet. This book is structured differently from most mathematics texts. It does not begin with a mathematical topic, but rather with a cipher. The mathematics is developed as it is needed; the applications motivate the mathematics. As is typical in mathematics textbooks, most chapters end with exercises. Many of these problems are similar to solved examples and are designed to assist the reader in mastering the basic material. A few of the exercises are one-of-a-kind, intended to challenge the interested reader. Implementing encryption schemes is considerably easier with the use of the computer. For all the ciphers introduced in this book, JavaScript programs are available from the Web. In addition to developing various encryption schemes, this book also introduces the reader to number theory. Here, the study of integers and their properties is placed in the exciting and modern context of cryptology. Mathematical Ciphers can be used as a textbook for an introductory course in mathematics for all majors. The only prerequisite is high school mathematics."--Jacket.
