Asterisk: The Future of Telephony

The Future of Telephony

By: Jim Van Meggelen,Jared Smith,Leif Madsen

This bestselling book is now the standard guide to building phone systems with Asterisk, the open source IP PBX that has traditional telephony providers running scared! Revised for the 1.4 release of the software, the new edition of Asterisk: The Future of Telephony reveals how you can save money on equipment and support, and finally be in control of your telephone system. If you've worked with telephony in the past, you're familiar with the problem: expensive and inflexible systems that are tuned to the vendor's needs, not yours. Asterisk isn't just a candle in the darkness, it's a whole fireworks show. Because Asterisk is so powerful, configuring it can seem tricky and difficult. This book steps you through the process of installing, configuring, and integrating Asterisk with your existing phone system. You'll learn how to write dialplans, set up applications including speech synthesis and voice recognition, how to script Asterisk, and much more -- everything you need to design a simple but complete system with little or no Asterisk experience, and no more than rudimentary telecommunications knowledge. The book includes: A new chapter on managing/administering your Asterisk system A new chapter on using Asterisk with databases Coverage of features in Asterisk 1.4 A new appendix on dialplan functions A simplified installation chapter New simplified SIP configuration, including examples for several popular SIP clients (soft phones and IP telephones) Revised chapters and appendicies reviewed and updated for the latest in features, applications, trends and best-practices Asterisk is revolutionizing the telecom industry, due in large part to the way it gets along with other network applications. While other PBXs are fighting their inevitable absorption into the network, Asterisk embraces it. If you need to take control of your telephony systems, move to Asterisk and see what the future of telecommunications looks like.

The Cat That God Sent

By: Jim Kraus

Jake Wilkerson, a disillusioned young pastor who is an expert at hiding his fears, takes on a new assignment at a small rural church in Coudersport, Pennsylvania. It's a far piece from anywhere and full of curiously odd and eccentric people, including Emma Grainger, a single woman and a veterinarian who dismisses all Christians as "those people," and Tassy, a young runaway with a secret. His first day on the job, however, Jake is adopted by Petey - a cat of unknown origins and breed - but of great perception. Petey believes that he is on a mission from God to redeem Jake and bring him and his quirky friends back to the truth.

God, Family, Country

A Memoir

By: Craig Morgan,Jim DeFelice

Country music icon, army veteran, father, outdoorsman—Craig Morgan shares all aspects of his life, revealing stories even his most avid fans don’t know. Written with Jim DeFelice, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller American Sniper In 1989, as US news outlets declared an end to Operation Just Cause, Craig Morgan was part of an elite group of military operatives jumping into the jungle along the Panamanian border on a covert operation. Fans know the country music star from his hit songs and acclaimed albums, but there’s a lot more to him—a soldier who worked with the CIA in Panama, an undercover agent who fought sex traffickers in Thailand, and a dedicated family man who lives the values he sings. Craig details these many facets of his life and more in God, Family, Country. An on-stage appearance with his father’s band at age ten may have planted the seeds for life as a country star, but first he trained as a paratrooper in the army. After earning numerous distinctions, his path to sergeant major was all but assured. Then came a momentous decision: he left the active military to pursue music. With unwavering support from his wife and a pack of part-time jobs, he toughed out the lean years and achieved his first big success with the poignant ballad “Almost Home.” Other hits soon followed, from party songs like “Redneck Yacht Club” to the soul-rending “The Father, My Son, and the Holy Ghost.” Born from the anguish of his son Jerry’s passing, the song’s tribute has consoled and inspired millions across the world. Duty to country has been a constant throughout his life and globe-spanning career. In 2006, as “That’s What I Love about Sunday” topped country radio charts, Craig was riding in a convoy of Humvees in Iraq. An avid outdoorsman, a former sheriff’s deputy who’s still a member of the auxiliary, and always a husband and father first, Craig Morgan will inspire you with his life lived by the deepest values: God, family, country.

Benevolent Dictator

By the People, for the People

By: Jim O'Donnell

Commander Luke Shafer was suddenly confronted with the blind obedience question he had so often wrestled with throughout his military career. Now he had his answer...and to hell with the consequences. Americans have always had a natural tendency to unite in times of crisis; only this time, when they learn about the treasonous acts of the president, their unanimous response reflects total distrust of both major political parties. It's 2019-the nation watches as live coverage shows a nuclear-armed missile, targeting New York City. The intruder is intercepted and destroyed with only minutes to spare-thanks to Navy Commander Luke Shafer, acting in blatant disobedience of a presidential order. Shafer is first vilified for insubordination, but becomes a national hero after the trial of the century reveals the truth of his unhesitating defiance of a corrupt president. Thanks to his sudden rise to the spotlight, Luke becomes a presidential nominee and uses his newfound clout to fight against what he believes to be the source of much corruption-career politicians. But the question is whether his military leadership will translate to the political forum. Can Shafer forge peace from turmoil among the world's major powers and religions and repair the relationship between the government and its defiant populace? 'What could be perceived as a literary call to action during a time when Americans have lost their faith in their elected leaders and their taste for debating what the next viable step is on the global political stage, this first novel cum op-ed piece is worth a look-see.' -Publishers Weekly

What's Your Decision

By: J. Michael Sparough,Jim Manney,Tim Hipskind

Discover a time-tested approach to making good decisions Do I go to graduate school? Whom should I marry? Should I change careers? What do I do with my life now that I'm retired? All of us have important decisions to make—decisions that radically alter our lives. Yet without a sound process in place for making key decisions, we are likely to question whether or not our final decision was a good decision; more to the point, we will never feel fully confident that our decision was what God truly desired for us. What's Your Decision? presents a time-tested, trustworthy approach to decision making based on the insights of Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Jesuits and the author of the Spiritual Exercises, one of history's most influential spiritual texts. Throughout this fast-moving and highly practical book, the authors present an "Ignatian toolkit" for making sound choices and provide answers to many common questions such as What's important and what's not when it comes to making choices? Do I trust my gut? What do I really want? Ultimately, What's Your Decision? helps us understand that a God decision always precedes a good decision: When we invite God—who cares deeply about what we do—into the decision-making process, we find the freedom to make the best choice.

God's Blueprint of the Ages

A Chronological Chart of Biblical History

By: Jim Foster

“God’s Blueprint of the Ages” developed as lesson plans through several years of Bible study and sermon preparation. To show a visual presentation of Biblical Chronology a graphic chart was drawn, step-by-step, that showed how God worked with His created earth from eternity past to eternity future. Various time periods, called “ages” or “dispensations” is shown graphically as a timeline. How Satan tried unsuccessfully to thwart God’s plan throughout history is also presented. Old Testament prophecy and New Testament Grace is expanded within the chapters that reference and explain the symbols on the chart. Many references to the Word of God are noted within each chapter to verify each explanation.

Programming Rust

Fast, Safe Systems Development

By: Jim Blandy,Jason Orendorff

Rust is a new systems programming language that combines the performance and low-level control of C and C++ with memory safety and thread safety. Rust’s modern, flexible types ensure your program is free of null pointer dereferences, double frees, dangling pointers, and similar bugs, all at compile time, without runtime overhead. In multi-threaded code, Rust catches data races at compile time, making concurrency much easier to use. Written by two experienced systems programmers, this book explains how Rust manages to bridge the gap between performance and safety, and how you can take advantage of it. Topics include: How Rust represents values in memory (with diagrams) Complete explanations of ownership, moves, borrows, and lifetimes Cargo, rustdoc, unit tests, and how to publish your code on crates.io, Rust’s public package repository High-level features like generic code, closures, collections, and iterators that make Rust productive and flexible Concurrency in Rust: threads, mutexes, channels, and atomics, all much safer to use than in C or C++ Unsafe code, and how to preserve the integrity of ordinary code that uses it Extended examples illustrating how pieces of the language fit together

A Pleasant Stroll To Everest

By: Jim Finnerty

This is an adventure travel book based on my best friends mid life crisis of needing to see Mount Everest up close and personal, a trek which in a moment’s madness, I agreed to. Taking a light hearted look at the trials and tribulations we faced in preparation, achieving our aim, and the aftermath, while providing an insight into the magnificent beauty of the Himalayas, its history and our own Australian background. It’s about discovery, fun, friendship and enjoying every day; and I hope anyone reading this book enjoys the tale half as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Pigeon Man

Notes, Tips and Observations from a Lifetime of Pigeon Rearing and Racing

By: Jim Emerton

Jim Emerton bred and raced birds for 40 years and had birds return to the loft from as far as 879 miles away. Now in retirement from active racing, he devotes his time and energies to sharing his experiences, his observations and his expertise with the rest of the fancy. Here in one volume is a comprehensive collection of his thoughts about pigeons and pigeon racing, ranging from short pieces originally written for the leading fanciers' magazines to full-length articles and interviews. "What unites us in principle is the common good of the sport, and with this in mind I do what I can for others - it all oils the cogs of the sport. Some will see me as a know-all, yet I am a quiet little man making my mark, that's all. What is true is that I have made a life study of pigeons, and as a teacher I like to impart knowledge and experience...My aim is purely to tell it as it is to me, and if this is illuminating to others, then so be it."ÿ

The Art of Democracy

A Concise History of Popular Culture in the United States

By: Jim Cullen

From the proliferation of novels written by white women in the late eighteenth century to the rise of rap music composed by black men in the late twentieth, popular culture has been a powerful force in the United States, resonating within the society as a while and at the same time connecting disparate and even hostile constituencies. In this fascinating history written for the general reader, Jim Cullen traces the development of this culture over two centuries. The novels of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the theater and minstrel shows of the mid-nineteenth century, the movies and television of the twentieth century are the building blocks that Cullen uses to demonstrate the boundaries of form (embracing novels, theater, films, music, and television) and geography (from the Mississippi Delta to the Great Plains to the streets of New York's Lower East Side). Synthesizing a huge amount of scholarship, much of it published within the last ten years, Cullen shows how unique and vibrant popular cultural forms have overcome initial resistance from the elites and enabled historically marginalized groups to gain access to the fruits of society and recognition from mainstream. -- Back cover
