Skiing in New Mexico

Skiing in New Mexico

By: Daniel Gibson and Jay Blackwood

New Mexico's long and distinguished skiing history began with the miners of the late 19th century and its pioneer settlers. Ski area development was launched in the 1930s in the Sandia Mountains near Albuquerque and quickly spread to the southernmost range of the Rocky Mountains--the Sangre de Cristos, north of Santa Fe. Students of a boarding school, the Los Alamos Ranch School, took up the sport in the Jemez Mountains, and when the school was occupied in the 1940s by American and international scientists like Neils Bohr working to create the world's first atomic bomb, they enthusiastically pursued skiing in their rare spare time. Taos Ski Valley's founding in 1955 elevated the scene to world-class status, and today, there are eight major downhill ski areas and one cross-country center stretching from the deserts of south-central New Mexico to the Colorado border.

Research Design and Proposal Writing in Spatial Science

Second Edition

By: Jay D. Gatrell,Gregory D. Bierly,Ryan R. Jensen

The complex interactions between human and physical systems confronting social scientists and policymakers pose unique conceptual, methodological, and practical complications when ‘doing research’. Graduate students in a broad range of related fields need to learn how to tackle the discipline-specific issues of space, place, and scale as they propose and perform research in the spatial sciences. This practical textbook and overview blends plenty of concrete examples of spatial research and case studies to familiarize readers with the research process as it demystifies and exemplifies how to really do it. The appendix contains both completed and in-progress proposals for MA and PhD theses and dissertations. Emphasizing research as a learning and experiential process while providing students with the encouragement and skills needed for success in proposal writing, "Research Design and Proposal Writing in Spatial Science" can serve as a textbook for graduate-level research-design courses, as well as for undergraduate-level project-based spatial science courses. Keywords: proposal writing, grant writing, research, geography, spatial science

The Cine Lens Manual

The Definitive Filmmaker's Guide to the Design, Implementation and History of Motion Picture Optics

By: Jay Holben,Christopher Probst

It is the camera that separates cinema from other art forms and the lens that allows a scene to be captured by the camera. The cinema lens, therefore, is at the heart of filmmaking. All aspects of a production are carefully crafted with the intention of being captured by the lens and camera to create a visual story. 'The Cine Lens Manual' is a comprehensive examiniation of the art and science of cinema optics. Written in clear, easily-digestible language, and extensively illustrated, 'The Cine Lens Manual' is designed for readers of all levels of experience from novice to expert. With more than 60-years of experience between them as cinematographers, technical journalists and educators, authors Holben and Probst break down the most complex concepts into easy-to-understand ideas, without requiring a mastery of calculus or physics."--Back cover.

Instinct

By: Jay Crownover

«Jay Crownover non delude mai!» Autrice del bestseller Oltre le regole Breaking Point Series Lo sanno tutti che le apparenze ingannano. Eppure non c’è nessuno che, vedendomi, non mi prenda per un attaccabrighe, una bestia. Il fatto che io sia alto e pieno di tatuaggi devia completamente l’attenzione della gente. In realtà, ho sempre dato molto più peso al cervello che ai muscoli. Anche se non ho scelto di usarlo nel modo più rispettabile. Non sono uno stupido supereroe né un bravo ragazzo. Ho voltato le spalle alla dignità e ho venduto la mia anima al miglior offerente. Uno che non sa salvare neppure se stesso, come potrebbe aiutare gli altri? Noe Lee è entrata nella mia vita come un fulmine. Brillante ma indisciplinata, capace di muoversi nei bassifondi addirittura meglio di me. Era fastidiosamente adorabile, ma era nei guai. E i guai di qualcun altro non sono mai stati affari miei. Così, le ho sbattuto la porta in faccia. E dopo che è sparita è bastato un secondo perché capissi che la rivolevo indietro. Quando realizzi di desiderare così disperatamente qualcuno, non ti chiedi cosa sei disposto a fare. Segui l’istinto e basta. Jay Crownover ci riporta a The Point con una nuova emozionante storia d’amore piena di cattivi e anime perse Hanno scritto dei suoi romanzi: «Una serie romantica che ha per protagonisti ragazzi che vivono storie d’amore e amicizia, libertà e trasgressione.» Il Corriere della Sera «A ogni nuovo romanzo, Jay Crownover riesce sempre a lasciarmi a bocca aperta.» «Credevo che Honor fosse insuperabile, ma Instinct si è dimostrato decisamente alla sua altezza!» Jay Crownover Vive in Colorado. Ama i tatuaggi e l’arte di modificare il corpo, e cerca di fare in modo che la sua scrittura sia permeata da tutto ciò che vede. Le piace leggere, soprattutto storie che la coinvolgano e appassionino; naturalmente, se c’è un bad boy bello e tatuato è sempre meglio. La Newton Compton ha pubblicato la Tattoo Series e la Welcome Series. Honor è stato il primo libro della serie The Breaking Point, di cui Instinct è il secondo volume.

Respect

By: Jay Crownover

«Jay Crownover non delude mai!» Breaking Point Series C’era una volta la bellissima principessa Karsen. La sua, però, non è una favola come le altre. Karsen viveva in un regno di malvagità e corruzione, ma al riparo dagli orrori del mondo. Ignara della sofferenza, la principessa era innamorata della città che bruciava intorno a lei, ne amava gli angoli oscuri, le ombre spaventose. Fu così che consegnò il suo cuore nelle mani di un uomo pericoloso e violento, sorda ai suoi avvertimenti: lui diceva di non meritarla, ma lei non voleva credergli. Nonostante la sua indole brutale, quando erano insieme lui si dimostrava attento e premuroso. Karsen doveva sapere che l’oscurità avrebbe inghiottito la città e l’uomo che amava, ma il dolore per il suo tradimento fu tale che si trovò costretta a fuggire, con il cuore spezzato. Gettò via la corona sperando di riuscire a dimenticare e lasciarsi tutto alle spalle. Ma nel regno oscuro di questa favola, la famiglia è tutto. E Karsen non ha altra scelta se non tornare indietro. Ora, però, non è più un’ingenua principessa... Un’autrice bestseller del New York Times e di USA Today È facile amare la luce, ma ci vuole coraggio per amare il buio «Finalmente la storia di Booker e Karsen. Ho dovuto attendere a lungo ma ne è valsa la pena.» «La Breaking Point Series è finita, ma è probabilmente la migliore serie che abbia mai letto.» Jay Crownover vive in Colorado. Ama i tatuaggi e l’arte di modificare il corpo, e cerca di fare in modo che la sua scrittura sia permeata da tutto ciò che vede. Le piace leggere, soprattutto storie che la coinvolgano e appassionino; naturalmente, se c’è un bad boy bello e tatuato è sempre meglio. La Newton Compton ha pubblicato la Tattoo Series e la Welcome Series. Honor e Instinct sono i primi due libri della Breaking Point Series, di cui Respect è il terzo volume.
