These people are Hidden Heroes? by Karl Lawrence aka T.O.L War is brought to American soil when the military is put in place to deal with a hostile nation. The country ignored the warnings about the invasion and is caught off-guard when it happens, the strength of the military is caught abroad and the world Mercenary force has set up blockades to make war against the American force trying to return home. The guards and military that are left are no match for the highly trained mercenary pirates, but their arrogance causes them to make a big invasion losing mistake. Areas known as the Hoods are organized and trained as the TRIBE: The true purpose of Gangs, Thugs, Hustlers, Chicken heads and ratchet Hood Rats is revealed to the world. These People are Hidden Heroes? The protectors of the country against the mad men of the world. Yeah and it’s like dat! America we can be your greatest Ally or your worst enemy... it’s your choice.

Khartoum, according to one theory, takes its name from the Beja word hartooma, meaning meeting place . Geographically, culturally and historically, the Sudanese capital is certainly that: a meeting place of the Blue and White Niles, a confluence of Arabic and African histories, and a destination point for countless refugees displaced by Sudan s long, troubled history of forced migration. In the pages of this book the first major anthology of Sudanese stories to be translated into English the city also stands as a meeting place for ideas: where the promise and glamour of the big city meets its tough social realities; where traces of a colonial past are still visible in day-to-day life; where ...
This volume is published in honour of Professor Takamitsu Muraoka on the occasion of his retirement from the Chair of Hebrew, Israelite Antiquities and Ugaritic at Leiden University, a date which coincides with the celebration of his sixty-fifth birthday. The laureate is well known for his expertise in the languages of the Bible and cognate studies and this volume includes contributions covering as far as possible the wide field of his interests. Some of his friends and colleagues from all parts of the world are presenting him with this valuable collection of forty-two articles. They include studies on the Greek of the Septuagint; Hebrew (Biblical and Qumran); Aramaic (Old, Offical and Qumran; Syriac and Neo-Aramaic); Canaanite (Amarna, Ugaritic and Phoenician-Punic); Medieval Jewish exegesis and Karaite studies. M.F.J. Baasten and W.Th. van Peursen, two former students of Muraoka at Leiden, have edited the volume.
Partial differential equations and variational methods were introduced into image processing about 15 years ago, and intensive research has been carried out since then. The main goal of this work is to present the variety of image analysis applications and the precise mathematics involved. It is intended for two audiences. The first is the mathematical community, to show the contribution of mathematics to this domain and to highlight some unresolved theoretical questions. The second is the computer vision community, to present a clear, self-contained, and global overview of the mathematics involved in image processing problems. The book is divided into five main parts. Chapter 1 is a detailed overview. Chapter 2 describes and illustrates most of the mathematical notions found throughout the work. Chapters 3 and 4 examine how PDEs and variational methods can be successfully applied in image restoration and segmentation processes. Chapter 5, which is more applied, describes some challenging computer vision problems, such as sequence analysis or classification. This book will be useful to researchers and graduate students in mathematics and computer vision.
Smart cities are experiencing a rapid evolution. The integration of technologies such as 5G, Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and blockchain has ushered in transformative applications, enhancing the quality of urban life. However, this evolution comes with its own challenges, most notably in security and privacy. Secure and Intelligent IoT-Enabled Smart Cities addresses these concerns, exploring theoretical frameworks and empirical research findings. The book embarks on the foundational elements of the Internet of Things, delving into the convergence of IoT and smart city applications, elucidating the layered architecture of IoT, and highlighting the security issues in...
This is a history of the teaching of Russian in the State of Arizona. It attempts to describe the efforts of EVERYONE who has EVER taught Russian ANYWHERE in the State of Arizona, as well as the subsequent fates of hundreds of their Arizona students of Russian. Over 1600 teachers and students are mentioned.
Comprehensive resource detailing the molecular mechanisms underlying heavy metal toxicity and tolerance in plants Heavy Metal Toxicity and Tolerance in Plants provides a comprehensive overview of the physiological, biochemical, and molecular basis of heavy metal tolerance and functional omics that allow for a deeper understanding of using heavy metal tolerance for deliberate manipulation of plants. Through the authors’ unique approach, the text enables researchers to develop strategies to enhance metal toxicity and deficiency tolerance as well as crop productivity under stressful conditions, in order to better utilize natural resources to ensure future food security. The text presents the ...
