Tired of reading HTML books that only make sense after you're an expert? Then it's about time you picked up Head First HTML and really learned HTML. You want to learn HTML so you can finally create those web pages you've always wanted, so you can communicate more effectively with friends, family, fans, and fanatic customers. You also want to do it right so you can actually maintain and expand your web pages over time so they work in all browsers and mobile devices. Oh, and if you've never heard of CSS, that's okay--we won't tell anyone you're still partying like it's 1999--but if you're going to create web pages in the 21st century then you'll want to know and understand CSS. Learn the real ...
"Head First HTML5" introduces key features including improved text elements, audio and video tags, geolocation, and the Canvas drawing surface. Concrete examples and exercises are applied to reinforce these concepts.
Provides information on scripting Web applications with JavaScript.
What will you learn from this book? It's no secret the world around you is becoming more connected, more configurable, more programmable, more computational. You can remain a passive participant, or you can learn to code. With Head First Learn to Code you'll learn how to think computationally and how to write code to make your computer, mobile device, or anything with a CPU do things for you. Using the Python programming language, you'll learn step by step the core concepts of programming as well as many fundamental topics from computer science, such as data structures, storage, abstraction, recursion, and modularity. Why does this book look so different? Based on the latest research in cognitive science and learning theory, Head First Learn to Code uses a visually rich format to engage your mind, rather than a text-heavy approach that puts you to sleep. Why waste your time struggling with new concepts? This multi-sensory learning experience is designed for the way your brain really works.
Using research in neurobiology, cognitive science and learning theory, this text loads patterns into your brain in a way that lets you put them to work immediately, makes you better at solving software design problems, and improves your ability to speak the language of patterns with others on your team.
This bombshell investigation from the co-author of Black Bird reveals a cold case gone wrong that cleared a murderer and imprisoned an innocent man. In March 1993, sixteen-year-old Rayna Rison was abducted outside the La Porte, Indiana, veterinary hospital where she worked. A month later, her body was found submerged under tree limbs in a rural pond. Police targeted her brother-in-law, Ray McCarty, as the prime suspect. Although a grand jury indicted him for the murder in 1998, prosecutors later dropped the charges. Then in 2013, county officers arrested Jason Tibbs, Rayna’s middle-school boyfriend, convicted him, and sentenced him to forty years in prison. After a two-year investigation, ...
Annotation "JavaSpaces technology is a powerful Jini service from Sun Microsystems, Inc. that facilitates building distributed applications. The JavaSpaces model provides persistent object exchange "areas" in which remote Java processes can coordinate their actions and exchange data. JavaSpaces technology supplies a necessary, cross-platform framework for distributed computing with Jini technology." "This book introduces the JavaSpaces technology architecture and provides a comprehensive description of the model. Using an example-driven approach, this book shows you how to use JavaSpaces technology to develop distributed computing applications." "JavaSpaces Principles, Patterns, and Practice also includes two full-scale applications - one collaborative and the other parallel - that demonstrate how to put the JavaSpaces model to work."--BOOK JACKET.

In a very different future world, a physicist who has morphed into a 2-D, anti-matter monster because of a failed fission experiment plots his revenge against the Nibiruan scientists who forcibly trapped him between the past and the future. There is no question that Noxtrademon has gone completely mad. Meanwhile, a man has been born cosmically determined to reset The Great Galactic Synchronization Clock to the center of time. Eric Holmes, now thirty and locked up in a cell within the Paranormal Clinical Institute, has no idea that this is his destiny until he finds himself inside the inter-dimensional obelisk with a Jinn-like man who calls himself Freeman. As the evil Noxtrademon plots to tr...
