This Truckin' Life

The Reminiscences of a Truck Driver

By: Laurie Driver

The book is a set of reflections and recollections of a driver's 40 plus years in the hard and unforgiving world of the haulage and transport industry. It delves into the methods resorted to, in order to survive and make ends meet for him and his family, in a world where the driver is considered the lowest of the low. There is both humour and pathos and some love and some violence. There are tales of underhand dealings, fiddles and thievery. It tells of times when truck driving was a man's world. Hard relentless toil, long, unsocial hours when there was no power steering and all gearboxes were constant mesh. When roping and sheeting was the norm. When trucking wasn't just a job. It was a way of life

Electronic Navigation Systems

Maritime navigation has rapidly developed since the publication of the last edition of the title with methods of global position fixing for shipping becoming standardized. As in the previous two editions, this edition will provide a sound basis for the understanding of modern navigation systems and brings the student or professional up-to-date with the latest developments in technology and the growing standardization of maritime navigation techniques. Developed with close scrutiny from the US Merchant Marine Academy and the major maritime navigation centres in the UK, out-dated techniques have been replaced by an expanded section on the now standard Navstar GPS systems and the Integrated Nav. In addition, a new chapter on the application of electronic charts will also be included, as well as problems at the end of each chapter with worked solutions.

Happiness Genes

Unlock the Positive Potential Hidden in Your DNA

By: James D. Baird,Laurie Nadel

Happiness Genes proves that there is a definitive link between science and spirituality--that you are biologically wired for natural happiness. You have a constitutional right to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." And every day thousands of advertising images seduce you into believing that happiness can be bought. Put away your wallet. Happiness is at your fingertips--it's sitting right in your DNA. The new science of epigenetics reveals that there are reserves of natural happiness within your DNA that can be controlled by you, your emotions, beliefs, and your behavioral choices. Happiness Genes: Unlock the Positive Potential Hidden in Your DNA examines the nature and source of happiness, from ancient times to the present. It presents the epigenetic and other biological research that shows that DNA contains genes for natural happiness and your ultimate well-being. Then it details the 28-Day natural happiness program--you'll learn how to "switch on" your happiness genes, creating a biological cascade of well-being.

Perspectives on Data Science for Software Engineering

By: Tim Menzies,Laurie Williams,Thomas Zimmermann

Perspectives on Data Science for Software Engineering presents the best practices of seasoned data miners in software engineering. The idea for this book was created during the 2014 conference at Dagstuhl, an invitation-only gathering of leading computer scientists who meet to identify and discuss cutting-edge informatics topics. At the 2014 conference, the concept of how to transfer the knowledge of experts from seasoned software engineers and data scientists to newcomers in the field highlighted many discussions. While there are many books covering data mining and software engineering basics, they present only the fundamentals and lack the perspective that comes from real-world experience. This book offers unique insights into the wisdom of the community's leaders gathered to share hard-won lessons from the trenches. Ideas are presented in digestible chapters designed to be applicable across many domains. Topics included cover data collection, data sharing, data mining, and how to utilize these techniques in successful software projects. Newcomers to software engineering data science will learn the tips and tricks of the trade, while more experienced data scientists will benefit from war stories that show what traps to avoid. - Presents the wisdom of community experts, derived from a summit on software analytics - Provides contributed chapters that share discrete ideas and technique from the trenches - Covers top areas of concern, including mining security and social data, data visualization, and cloud-based data - Presented in clear chapters designed to be applicable across many domains

A Grave Prediction

By: Victoria Laurie

In Victoria Laurie’s latest Psychic Eye Mystery, Abby Cooper learns that following the money often leads to murder.... When Abby is sent to Los Angeles to help train FBI officers to use their intuition, she encounters a case that only she can solve: a series of bank robberies in which the thieves made off with loads of cash but left no clues. Abby’s sixth sense leads her team to a tract of land recently cleared for development, where she gets a vision of four buried bodies. However, a site search turns up only ancient bones and pottery from an American Indian tribe, which is enough to delay construction for years. With a furious developer and dubious FBI agents on her back, Abby is losing credibility fast. But Abby’s talent rarely leads her astray, and if the bodies aren’t there yet, that means four deaths can still be stopped. She’ll just have to dig a little deeper....

Sitting Pretty

The Girlfriend’S Guide to a Mindful (And Joyful) Life

By: Laurie Goldey MFT

What does it take to love your life more fully, to feel more focused and productive, and to have deeper, more satisfying relationships with everyone in your life? All it takes is being more mindful and more attuned to your life and what is happening in the moment, whether youre sipping your morning latte, helping your kid with homework, or stuck in traffic on the way to work. Thats what Marriage and Family Therapist and mindfulness practitioner Laurie Goldey discovered more than a decade ago, when, skeptically, she began taking baby steps toward living a more mindful life. What she found was, making tiny changes are all it takes to incorporate noticing into your daily routine, whatever you happen to be doing. Focusing on the task at hand (whether mundane or exceptional) can help you find joy in the most routine or habitual tasks and can bring out your best self, impacting your family, your job, and all of your relationships (especially the one with yourself). If you follow the week-by-week suggestions in this book, you will feel less overwhelmed, less anxious, less likely to spend early-morning hours in bed wide awake, ticking off your to-do list. And thats just the start of the new life ahead of you. Before you know it, youll be sitting pretty.

The Year I Followed the Sun

The Year I Followed the Sun

By: Laurie J. Rutherford Pederson

While many contemplate roaming the world, at 22, Laurie Rutherford Pederson embarked on a solo journey of 365 days, beginning in December 1976. She recorded her many adventures, sublime to horrific, in twenty-seven journals from which this book emerged. The Victoria, B.C. native worked as a travel agent, creating her own itinerary to countries that intrigued her. She explored these exotic locations, each replete with its historic and often perilous political landscapes, using all means of transport: from a luggage rack on a train in India to rickshaws to horseback, even a boat on the Canal du Midi. Family friends in several countries provided respites of gracious hospitality and rollicking entertainment; but, to her credit, Pederson writes with equal appreciation of the many strangers—locals and fellow travellers—she encountered along the way. Her prose sparkles with hilarious interior monologues and a cinematographer's attention to detail. From a near-fatal motorcycle accident on Bali to a brush with death at the Israel-Lebanese border, there is adventure, romance, fear and reflection. The author left her secure home in Victoria as a young adventuress; she returned a woman. Pederson's memoir is contemplative yet spontaneous, capturing a time of great change in the world.

To Coach a Killer

By: Victoria Laurie

Cat Cooper plans on emerging as the premier life coach in East Hampton by summertime. All she has to do is survive an offseason replete with desolate beaches, slow business, and murder . . . As the Hamptons drags through early spring, Cat’s shot at becoming the toast of the town in time for Memorial Day is dwindling—and fast. The only client she can find has been housebound for decades and claims to be the victim of a devasting curse. Then there’s the matter of Detective Shepherd’s intense jealousy over Maks Grinkov, the handsome bad boy who approaches Cat with an unusual offer she can’t stop thinking about. Havoc finally breaks loose when a string of murders rocks the coastal community, landing Maks on the hook as the culprit. With a storm approaching shore and no one to trust, Cat and her sharp-tongued best friend, Gilley, must solve a client’s curse and a series of violent deaths before a killer sends them all sailing to their doom . . .

Weaving a Malawi Sunrise

A Woman, A School, A People

By: Roberta Laurie

“When you educate a girl, you educate a nation.” —Malawian saying The women of Malawi, like many other women in developing countries, struggle to find their way out of poverty and build a better life for themselves and their families. Weaving a Malawi Sunrise tells the story of Memory Chazeza’s quest to get an education and to build a school for young women. Roberta Laurie was one of many who helped Memory realize her vision of seeing young girls become strong and independent women who could care for themselves and their future families. During her time in Malawi, Laurie met several other women, each of whom had a story of her own. Laurie combines these personal accounts with detailed information about the country’s underlying social and political context. Readers interested in Africa, global affairs, women’s studies, development, and international education will give high marks to Weaving a Malawi Sunrise.

Bottles of Dom Pérignon champagne were being popped, and congratulations of high praises and honors were being given to me and my partner, Dr. Larry Pratt, for the discovery of a drug that could restore the health and minds of patients with Alzheimer’s. It was a night that no one was ever going to forget. I left the ballroom at around ten O’clock. As I walked to the elevator, I noticed the lobby was filled with people and laughter. I was going to my room to finally get a good night’s sleep. As I stood at the elevator door, waiting for it to open, I suddenly felt a strange sensation of danger closing in on me. That’s when it happened—something bumped into me. No, it wasn’t just something. It was more like an animal in heat. She came out of nowhere, and trust me, I would have noticed her anywhere. As she brushed her body past me, she whispered something in my ear. I wasn’t sure what she said, but somehow her breathless voice made my knees go weak. I turned to look at her through the crowd. She glanced back over her shoulder at me, our eyes met, and I suddenly felt sexually aroused. An alarm went off inside my head, and all my senses went into overdrive. As I stood there, watching in slow motion, her hips shifted from side to side. Her red backless dress shimmering in the light, she disappeared into the cocktail lounge. I could hear the piano playing. That’s when I looked at my watch and decided that I wasn’t so tired after all. I followed her inside and sat at the bar and ordered a brandy. I wondered if she was waiting for someone—maybe her boyfriend, her lover, who knows—but for obvious reasons, I didn’t think it was her husband she was waiting for. She looked beautiful in the candlelight. Her lips were full and sensuous, her eyes mesmerizing. She crossed her long legs, and the slit up the side of her dress parted, showing me just a hint of her thigh. She looked directly at me and smiled. It took everything I had to remember I was still married—or was I? My temperature was rising. I couldn’t take my eyes off her. I was like a moth being drawn to the flame. This was for real, and it was more dangerous than I could have ever imagined. She was irresistible, and like the sweet, sharp edge of obsession, I had to have her.

Unburied Lives

The Historical Archaeology of Buffalo Soldiers at Fort Davis, Texas, 1869–1875

By: Laurie A. Wilkie

According to the accounts of two white officers, on the evening of November 20, 1872, Corporal Daniel Talliafero, of the segregated Black 9th cavalry, was shot to death by an officer’s wife while attempting to break into her sleeping apartment at the military post of Fort Davis, Texas. Historians writing about Black soldiers serving in the West have long accepted the account without question, retelling the story of Daniel Talliafero, the thwarted “rapist.” In Unburied Lives Wilkie takes a different approach, demonstrating how we can “listen” to stories found in things neglected, ignored, or disparaged—documents not consulted, architecture not studied, material traces preserved in the dirt. With a focus on Fort Davis, Wilkie brings attention to the Black enlisted men and non-commissioned officers. In her archaeological accounting, Wilkie explores the complexities of post life, racialized relationships, Black masculinity, and citizenship while also exposing the structures and practices of military life that successfully obscured these men’s stories for so long.
