Il volume nasce con lo scopo sopperire alla mancanza di testi di Matematica specifici per i corsi d'istruzione serali destinati agli adulti: non sempre infatti i testi destinati ai corsi diurni si prestano bene ad essere utilizzati anche per i corsi serali, per i quali è previsto un programma meno approfondito e per molti aspetti diverso.In questo primo volume vengono trattati in maniera essenziale gli argomenti che andrebbero svolti nel corso della prima annualità del primo periodo didattico di un corso serale: 1. Matematica di base; 2. Equazioni lineari; 3. Sistemi lineari; 4. Il piano cartesiano e la retta; 5. Equazioni di secondo grado; 6. La parabola.Ultima revisione: 30 luglio 2023.

Set in Ireland, America and Canada, this true story of Barbara Heck from Limerick, Ireland, is recreated with meticulous use of historical sources and inherited details to bring history alive for every reader. Written in the present tense, she emerges as a stoic, forthright and mindful woman who has a claim to fame in the British colonies of America in the 1760s and who encapsulates the lives of women amongst the loyal supporters of their King of Great Britain and Ireland.Her story blends immigration experiences with dominant Palatinate family heritage that calls for her community's loyalty in their host countries with dire consequences. She keeps their morale under-girded with revitalized identity in New York by introducing Methodism to America. She holds respect and standing in a male world with a sense of reality yet she burns with frustrations. A stoic personality keeps her marriage vows intact when under attack from attraction and hurtful judgment. When historically-significant scenarios hurt her fellow "Irish Palatines", she nearly buckles under the strain, Canada becomes the last place of refuge where loyalty has a result. Hindsight and accountability are quantified; overall, did the four countries of heritage and refuge deceitfully influence their lives?

Basic oxygen steelmaking (BOS) dust and blast furnace (BF) dust from former and currently operating steelmaking facilities in the United Kingdom have been characterized by MP-AES, SEM-EDX, particle size analysis, TGA-DSC, combustion analysis, and powder XRD. As part of a circular economy these materials are a potentially valuable raw material source for ironmaking, but their contamination with zinc precludes their recycling via the conventional sinter plant/BF route. X-ray diffraction suggested some of the zinc present in the material is in the form of sub-stoichiometric zinc ferrites, making hydrometallurgical separation less effective. BF dust contains 40 wt.% levels of fixed carbon indicating it could be useful as an alternative reductant in rotary hearth furnace processes such as FASTMET. The rotary hearth furnace appears to be the most suited separation technique available due to its lack of sensitivity to zinc present in zinc ferrite compounds, and reintegration of the recovered iron into the steelmaking process. Benchmarking of material from Port Talbot material processed in laboratory furnace trials under conditions mimicking the RHF showed that while volatile metal removal and iron reduction performance is adequate for recycling at realistic RHF temperatures and hold times, the high sulfur and gangue content mean the produced DRI would not be valuable enough to offset production costs.

In "Focus Forward: Unlocking Your Potential," Robert Ornis delves deep into the intricacies of human attention and its powerful role in shaping our future. Drawing from cutting-edge research, historical anecdotes, and personal experiences, Ornis provides actionable strategies to help readers master their focus and realize their full potential. This book is not just a guide; it's a journey to the epicenter of one's inner capabilities.In an era where distractions are constantly vying for our attention, the quest for genuine focus has never been more pressing. I remember my years at Harvard, where the environment was intellectually stimulating, yet rife with countless diversions. There, I witnessed firsthand how even the brightest minds grappled with maintaining focus amidst a sea of competing interests.Consider the Sirens from Greek mythology; with their enchanting melodies, they lured sailors towards them, often leading to their doom. Today's digital world, with its incessant notifications, can be likened to these Sirens - captivating, yet potentially detrimental if not approached with caution.Research from the University of California, Irvine, reveals that it takes an average of 23 minutes and 15 seconds to refocus on a task after an interruption. Now, think about how many times a day your phone buzzes, a colleague stops by your desk, or a new email lands in your inbox. The cumulative time wasted is staggering.However, it's not all doom and gloom. The human brain is remarkably adaptable. Dr. Tanya Jonker, a leading neuroscientist, found in her studies that when individuals train their brains using specific cognitive exercises, they can improve their attention spans significantly over time. This means that focus, much like a muscle, can be cultivated and strengthened.But why is focus so essential? When I collaborated with Nobel laureate Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn on telomere research, it became apparent that prolonged stress, often a result of constant distractions, can accelerate cellular aging. Conversely, concentrated and purposeful work, akin to a state of flow described by psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, can provide profound satisfaction and even enhance well-being.Historically, some of the world's most groundbreaking discoveries have been a result of deep, undistracted focus. Nicola Tesla, known for his immense contributions to electromagnetism and electrical theory, often spoke of working in a state of hyper-focus, where time seemingly

The relationship between religion, religious groups, and migration is an important topic of recent social science debate. Migration affects all aspects of the lives of those who have left their homes, including facets characterized as religious. Religion and religious identity are linked to social, cultural, and political issues, including integration, identity negotiation, diasporic community formation, interreligious dialogue, and religious pluralism. On the one hand, migration can change religious cultures, rituals, and traditions through the experience of mobility and the response of the host country. On the other hand, religious groups can encourage migration. In this context, new forms of transnational interaction and organization have emerged that contribute to the reformulation of community and identity. In some cases, such changes can lead to new conflicts and even trigger religious radicalization. This edited book consists of essays that bring together various perspectives on religious groups and their migration processes in different geographical regions. The aim is to empirically analyze the discourse and practices of national and transnational religious groups while investigating the relationship of religion and migration to political, historical, cultural, and social transitions. The book brings together academics and practitioners from different countries through interdisciplinary approaches that will be of interest to a wide readership of scholars and practitioners.ContentsReligion, Religious Groups and Migration. - Deniz Coşan Eke and Eric M.

"Then Ben saw Mira, He completely dropped his bag of corn chips. "Hi." Ben said, picking up his chips. "Hello." replied Mira, walking slowly around Ben like a cat circling its prey...but for Ben she looked more like bacon wrapped around a chili dog. It got even more intense once Ben realized she was about to speak. Ben was sweating now; he was short of breath and didn't know what to say. Mira was a sexy and forbidden woman of obvious great intelligence. Ben then yelled the greatest best lie he could think of: "My cat is going to die at 5 o'clock today!" Mira and the sound of her black and turquoise colored 4 inch high heels came to a halt. She turned to Ben; she licked the Kit Kat chocolate off one finger and then after a brief pause said: "Did you say cat... or... kitten?"
