A tabletop miniatures game of intense starship combat between fleets of powerful cruisers, sleek destroyers, and agile fighters. A Billion Suns is a wargame of interstellar combat that puts you in command of fleets of powerful starships, from squadrons of agile, but fragile, fighters, to hulking and powerful capital ships. Choose your vessels from pre-existing classes then customize them to create your own sub-classes, each with their own strengths, weaknesses, and armament, from accurate torpedoes to devastating macro-cannon. Using simple dice pool mechanics, you must carefully manage your resources and seize the opportunities that come your way in order to lead your fleet to victory and assert your dominance over the stars.
Presentations are more than speeches. They include meetings, sales calls, customer-service calls, pitches to acquire new clients or business, marriage proposals, job interviews, family discussions, and so on. If you are currently employed or considering entering or reentering the workforce, you will need to sharpen your presentation skills. Whether you meet with one, five, or a thousand people, you are making a presentation. Whether it's in person, or on the phone, or even on paper, you are making a presentation. If asked to deliver a toast at your brother's or sister's wedding, you are making a presentation. Speaking Mastery is your crash course in presentation success. Your strength in presentation will either catapult you to a more successful level or expose your lack of preparation and commitment to achieving higher standards. Speaking Mastery can provide you with the tools for success!

From set designs to character development, the most complete, official tour behind-the-scenes at "Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones."
Scientists have learned more about the brain in the last decade than in all of previous history, and the implications of the latest research are clear: The human brain is far more powerful, and has the potential for immensely greater growth and transformation, than was ever before imagined. These discoveries may constitute the most significant development in learning since the invention of writing. Michael Hutchison captures all the drama, excitement, and adventure as we finally begin to comprehend the most mysterious and complex structure in the universe, the source of human culture, a still untapped reservoir of power and skills. He looks at the recently developed machines and devices that may soon allow us to increase brain size and intelligence; regenerate brain cells; trigger specific brain states such as euphoria, long- and short-term memory, sexual excitement, and creativity; and control the brain's electrical activity in order to alter such "involuntary" mechanisms as blood pressure, heart rate, and the secretion of hormones. Megabrain is a lucid and lively account of where the pioneers in brain research are headed -- and where they are taking us.
