Every year people make resolutions. So, there is an implicit understanding that resolutions are good. Indeed, they are good. Resolutions aim to self-better, self-improve, and self-actualize. These are the three ultimate objectives of any resolution. This brief treatise provides a very nuanced but pointed debriefing on the veracity of resolutions. It is quintessentially a subtle debrief because people attempt to make resolutions and, unfortunately, majority of them fail each year. One of the reasons why they fail is addressed in this book - the lack of understanding of what a resolution is in the first place. The book can be read and completed in less than 30 minutes, but its saliences may be endeared for years to come. Because the reader will know and appreciate the core of resolutions and the steps required to make winning resolutions. Be the first witness to this.

When American covert operative Chase Fulton's life is turned upside down with news almost too good to be true, everything he believes about his world changes in an instant, and the life he dedicated to serving his country and the preservation of freedom suddenly fades out of focus as a new reality becomes the center of his existence. But before the dream of his new life can materialize, one final mission demands his devotion like never before. American hostages, including a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, have fallen into the hands of Los Toros, one of the world's most ruthless and violent drug cartels, and no one is dispatched to rescue the doomed victims. As the truth about why the hostages have been abandoned by their country reveals itself, an even more horrific reality looms on the horizon for Chase and his team of seasoned operatives. On the edge of the Mexican desert, just out of sight of the resort paradise of Cabo San Lucas, maniacal forces lurk not only in the shadows, but also boldly in the bright midday sun, unafraid of those who would dare try standing between them and the imminently condemned victims of their ferocious, bloodthirsty fury. Can Chase survive the mission he swears will be his last, or will he draw his final breath beneath the falling blade of the darkest enemy he's ever faced?

An eye-opening memoir of service with the Arab Legion in the tense world of the Middle East. An ideal book for fans of T.E. Lawrence, Andy McNab and Nathaniel Fick. In the aftermath of his time spent serving with the Commandos in the Second World War, Peter Young became frustrated with the mundaneness of peacetime duties, and so in 1953 he joined the Arab Legion under the command of Sir John Glubb. Although the First Arab-Israeli War had ended four years before, tensions were still high between Israel and its neighbours by the time that Young entered the region. Over the course of the next three years Young saw the Jordanian Arab Legion grow to a substantial force with modern training and equipment, developing into a powerful counterweight to the rising strength of Israel. Bedouin Command provides fascinating insight into this remarkable Arabian army which collaborated with its large number of British officers to maintain peace in the Middle East. Yet, Young also explains how this happy relationship ended due to nationalist sentiments rising among the Jordanians leading to the dismissal of Young and his fellow senior officers. Young's book is a fascinating memoir of one British officer's time spent serving in the Middle East. He writes compassionately about his men, who he saw as excellent soldiers, and although he was eventually removed from his position Young's admiration for the Arab world is clear throughout the book. "The personal account of a regimental commander in the Arab Legion from 1953 to 1956." Foreign Affairs

At first Sight the Item may appear to be a Seat, its slatted wooden Top curved as to fit the Shape of an Arse. Yet a Glance at the Straps and Timbers of it reveals otherwise. The Apparatus is indeed concerned with Posterior Matters, though not in the Mode of Sitting. One may rather be sure that when its Function has been discharg'd, that very Position will be best avoided. For the Thing is a Whipping-Bench, no less, made out of the finest Oak to a Plan from Sir Montague's own Hand. It is unique to the House and we hope to see it become the Envy of the Circuit. Thus wrote the new bride at Ardingley End in 1728, drawing Jane Barrett-Greene, National Keeper of 'Rare' Books and devoted corrector of wayward youth, into a search for the original manuscripts. It takes her - and a priapic young companion - to a disciplinary order in France whose Director wields a vicious cane. Bringing her prize back to its house of origin, Jane becomes embroiled in a scheme of the strict new patriarch to re-enact a flagellatory tableau from the notebooks in the Great Hall.

Megan është dymbëdhjetë vjeç në vëllimin e parë. Ajo ka dy probleme në dukje të pakapërcyeshme. Nëna e saj është e frikësuar nga aftësitë latente të së bijës dhe jo vetëm që nuk do ta ndihmojë, por edhe e dekurajon në mënyrë aktive; ajo nuk mund të gjejë një mësues që ta ndihmojë të zhvillojë fuqitë e saj psikike të mbinatyrshme. Kjo sepse ajo dëshiron jo vetëm të dijë se çfarë është e mundur të bëhet dhe si ta bëjë atë, por për çfarë qëllimi duhet t'i përdori aftësitë e saj të veçanta.

Il lavoro indaga nuove modalità di pianificazione urbana, ripartendo da due concetti: 1) la città non è costituita da un unico tessuto omogeneo di edifici, essa ha numerosi quartieri che spesso diventano grandi periferie suburbane, a ciascuna delle quali bisogna fornire una propria identità e una propria centralità; 2) ordinare i quartieri delle città contemporanee come fossero parti specializzate di un grappolo più grande, secondo logiche di trasporto orientato ad uno sviluppo armonioso, rappresenta sicuramente una sfida per il futuro. Venezia è una città arcipelago, e ben si presta ad esperimenti progettuali di questo tipo. Il volume riporta il lavoro svolto nel Laboratorio Integrato di Progettazione Urbanistica del Corso di laurea magistrale in Architettura dell'Università degli Studi di Udine, nell'anno accademico 2017-2018 e si occupa di una sfida importante: riorganizzare lo spazio urbano lagunare secondo logiche che possano integrare l'abitato di terra ferma con quello della città antica e la grande zona industriale di Marghera con nuovi quartieri residenziali, in una prospettiva a venire, di ridotta pericolosità del porto e delle stesse industrie.

A home invasion took Toby Hayden's family, all but her grandfather, away from her when she was seven. After the horrors she'd witnessed that day, Toby trusted no one. Sebastian Gerald had recently lost his wife and child from a mob hit meant to get his attention. He had turned down their "job" offer, and they were coming for him. Laying low was the prudent thing to do. When a man came into the bar looking for someone related to a man named Anderson, Toby knew the family, but there was no way she'd give the stranger any information. When he put his hands on her the first time, Toby warned him not to do that, but when he put his hands on her again, it was the last warning...

Estos "Estudios de lingüística y traducción" reúnen contribuciones del autor que son de difícil acceso por tratarse de conferencias inéditas o de contribuciones a homenajes. Ángel López García-Molins, que ha publicado más de treinta libros y dos centenares de artículos, solo se ha ocupado de los temas del libro en la última década, de forma que este volumen puede considerarse de plena actualidad. El planteamiento de partida es que las lenguas deben abordarse en su realidad factual, lo cual supone que, como las personas nos movemos normalmente en ámbitos plurilingües y continuamente cambiantes, carece de sentido partir de esquemas formales logicistas o de modelos lingüísticos inflexibles. Sin embargo, con honrosas excepciones como Eugeniu Coseriu y, por supuesto, los traductólogos, este planteamiento realista suele estar ausente en la bibliografía.

Esta investigación se centra en los bajos resultados que obtienen los estudiantes del programa de Administración de Empresas de la Universidad de Sucre en la competencia matemática de resolución de problemas. Su objetivo general es evaluar la incidencia del uso de estrategias metacognitivas en dicha competencia. La metodología fue de tipo mixta, integrando elementos cuantitativos y cualitativos. En la parte cuantitativa se emplea un diseño cuasiexperimental, en el cual se interviene el grupo experimental y se comparan sus resultados de las medidas del pretest y postest con el grupo de control; los datos son tomados a través de un cuestionario compuesto por 14 preguntas extraídas de las pruebas SABER, las cuales comprenden 3 indicadores (diseña, ejecuta y resuelve) y 3 niveles de complejidad (I, II y III). Se toman elementos del enfoque cualitativo: entrevista semiestructurada y cuestionario abierto con los cuales se indaga sobre las estrategias metacognitivas empleadas cuando resuelven situaciones problema. Los resultados muestran que el grupo experimental obtiene mejores puntajes, sin embargo, para el indicador ejecuta y niveles de dificultad II y III este incremento no es estadísticamente significativo, como si sucede con los indicadores Diseña y Resuelve y nivel de dificultad I. Estos resultados corroboran que las estrategias metacognitivas mejoran el desempeño en la competencia de resolución de problemas, ya que propicia el desarrollo de habilidades orientadas a la planeación, control y evaluación de las estrategias.
