Now, in the wake of the Alpha Quadrant's victory in that war, the Miradorn are eager to improve their relationship with the Federation -- especially in light of the numerous dangerous devices the Dominion left behind. One of them has killed a Miradorn scientist named Or-Lin. Now, the S.C.E. team on the U.S.S. da Vinci must deactivate the rest of the devices before they become responsible for wiping out the entire Miradorn species -- but the only one who can help them is Or-Lin's twin, Em-Lin, who is still devastated by the death of her sister....

Book Synopsis Clean Up Your Room: The Eternal Spotless Mind of Jordan Peterson by : Joe Dixon
Download or read book Clean Up Your Room: The Eternal Spotless Mind of Jordan Peterson written by Joe Dixon and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jordan Peterson imagines he has a spotless mind. In fact, it's filthy. This book deconstructs his worldview and shows how dirt-encrusted it is. If you want the Truth of reality, come inside and discover the real Truth. You won't like it, but Truth is under no obligation to be what you want it to be. Peterson claims that the Truth is "Darwinian". In fact, it is eternal. It is perfect, immutable and absolute. It has never evolved. It cannot evolve. It is what it is permanently and ineradicably. All Darwinian "truths" are lies. Evolution is not predicated on the promotion of Truth. It is all about survival and reproduction, regarding which lies have proved astoundingly effective, which is why all humans, whether they admit it or not, are consummate liars. The Lie is archetypally Darwinian: ever-mutating and constantly subject to natural selection, producing the survival of the "fittest" lies, the most adaptive and useful lies – lies for living.
Book Synopsis Music in Star Trek by : Jessica Getman
Download or read book Music in Star Trek written by Jessica Getman and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tensions between utopian dreams and dystopian anxieties permeate science fiction as a genre, and nowhere is this tension more evident than in Star Trek. This book breaks new ground by exploring music and sound within the Star Trek franchise across decades and media, offering the first sustained look at the role of music in shaping this influential series. The chapters in this edited collection consider how the aural, visual, and narrative components of Star Trek combine as it constructs and deconstructs the utopian and dystopian, shedding new light on the series’ political, cultural, and aesthetic impact. Considering how the music of Star Trek defines and interprets religion, ideology, artificial intelligence, and more, while also considering fan interactions with the show’s audio, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of music, media studies, science fiction, and popular culture.

Book Synopsis Alternate Americas by : M. Keith Booker
Download or read book Alternate Americas written by M. Keith Booker and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2006-02-28 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than 50 years, science fiction films have been among the most important and successful products of American cinema, and are worthy of study for that reason alone. On a deeper level, the genre has reflected important themes, concerns and developments in American society, so that a history of science fiction film also serves as a cultural history of America over the past half century. M. Keith Booker has selected fifteen of the most successful and innovative science fiction films of all time, and examined each of them at length—from cultural, technical and cinematic perspectives—to see where they came from and what they meant for the future of cinema and for America at large. From Invasion of the Body Snatchers to Star Wars, from Blade Runner to The Matrix, these landmark films have expressed our fears and dreams, our abilities and our deficiencies. In this deep-seeking investigation, we can all find something of ourselves that we recognize, as well as something that we've never recognized before. The focus on a fairly small number of landmark films allows detailed attention to genuinely original movies, including: Forbidden Planet, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Planet of the Apes, Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Alien, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Blade Runner, The Terminator, Robocop, The Abyss, Independence Day, and The Matrix. This book is ideal for general readers interested in science fiction and film.

The S.C.E.'s missions don't always go as planned -- repairing the weather grid on the resort planet Risa turns into a deadly first contact, constructing an industrial complex on a nonaligned world leads to some startling revelations about the financier behind it, diverting a runaway ship could spell death for the crew the da Vinci didn't even know was there, and a planet in a box proves a more valuable prize than anyone could have imagined -- but their greatest challenge comes much closer to home... Captain Gold's granddaughter Esther is marrying Khor, son of Lantar, a Klingon politician. Now Gold faces what may be the greatest challenge of his career: officiating the first-ever Klingon-Jewish wedding!

Book excerpt: THE HISTORIC SAGA BEGINS Born in the twilight years of Vulcan's violent and passionate past, those who declared themselves Rihannsu chose to reign free in the unknown reaches of space rather than to serve under the new tyranny of logic. Having severed themselves from their homeworld, they survived the perilous voyage across the stars to wash ashore on a distant planet, there to begin the civilization that would one day flower into the Romulan Star Empire. Now, after millennia of wars and conquests, that empire is decaying from within, surrendering its noble heritage to reckless ambition, abandoning honor for kidnapping and murder. The corruption is so great that the Rihannsu's finest military officer -- Commander Ael t'Rllaillieu of the warbird Bloodwing -- believes she can save her people only by joining forces with her greatest enemy: Captain James T. Kirk of the Starship Enterprise™. Meanwhile, on the Romulan homeworld, a Federation deep-cover agent has been posing as a household servant named Arrhae i-Khellian -- but her operation takes a strange turn when a captured Starfleet officer is brought to her home . . . The lives of Ael, Arrhae, and the crew of the Enterprise come together in these astonishing adventures -- originally published in four volumes: My Enemy, My Ally; The Romulan Way; Swordhunt; and Honor Blade -- that will challenge everything you thought you knew about the Romulans.

Book Synopsis Learning to Drive on the Internet Superhighway by : Harry Jordon
Download or read book Learning to Drive on the Internet Superhighway written by Harry Jordon and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2021-08-30 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love and peace driven by cross-cultural weddings and music like those of the Beatles and Pink Floyd of the ’60s is being forgotten in the Twitter and Facebook era of today. Good habits created through wisdom passed down by elders and extended families over breakfast and dinner are being taken over by bad habits being learned on the internet over those same meals. Special occasions like the 2020 Valentine’s Day was devoted to such extreme internet posts from White House to university students, instead of, say, addressing coronavirus or climate change that one can only wonder what medicine these people take and what is happening within their households and marriages today. The World Wide Web has become like the Wild West of western books. An equivalent of the coronavirus is also being spread through the internet. Besides affecting our mental health, it is also affecting our planet. What’s remarkable is not how much pollution went down during the pandemic lockdown, but how little. Other factors impacting climate change besides carbon emissions have been discussed in this book. Simulation involving additional households willing to do clinical-trial studies on a larger scale will be needed for the next phase. Diet, air-conditioning, and the internet may be the most neglected factors as climate change modelers attempt to figure out why events that were supposed to happen eighty years from 2008 are happening today. Besides improving health and wealth of individuals, organizations, and countries, the home-wellness program provided here can help achieve universal health-care coverage for a fraction of what it would cost today. It will also help reduce deficits and extend our planet’s life by another one hundred years. Drawing on Einstein’s famous e = mc2 equation, the book demonstrates how increase in economic stimulus (c2) is reducing the life (m) of our planet. Scientists and climate change experts are now saying the planet may have only twenty-five years remaining before it becomes uninhabitable. New cross-country models for driving change need. This can be done using 3P simplification for currency tracing for medical tourism. It needs to prevent another pandemic from happening again. It needs to be scalable for an Interstellar movie-type solution since our planet is dying.
Book Synopsis How to Keep House While Drowning by : KC Davis
Download or read book How to Keep House While Drowning written by KC Davis and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you're tired of staring at the same mess every day, but struggling to find the time and willpower to clean it, you probably have a very good reason: anxiety, fatigue, depression, ADHD, or lack of support. Designed by therapist KC Davis, this revolutionary method of cleaning and organizing helps end the stress-mess cycle. After KC Davis gave birth to her second child, she didn't fold a single piece of laundry for seven months. Between postpartum depression and ADHD, she felt numb and overwhelmed. She regained her sanity--and the functionality of her home--after one life-changing realization: You don't work for your home; your home works for you. In other words, messiness is not a moral failing. A new sense of calm washed over her as she let go of the shame-based messaging that interpreted a pile of dirty laundry as "I can never keep up" and a chaotic kitchen as "I'm a bad mother." Instead, she looked at unwashed clothes and thought, "I am alive," and at stacks of dishes and thought, "I cooked my family dinner three nights in a row." Building on this foundation of self-compassion, KC devised the powerful practical approach that has exploded in popularity through her TikTok account, @domesticblisters. The secret is to stop following perfectionist rules that don't make sense for you--like folding clothes that don't wrinkle anyway, or thinking that every room has to be clean at the same time--and to find creative solutions that accommodate your needs, pet peeves, daily rhythms, and attention span. Inside, you'll learn exactly how to customize your approach and rebuild your relationship with your home, including: -How to stop seeing care tasks as a reflection of your worth, but rather as kindnesses to your future self -How to use calming rituals to keep you from feeling overwhelmed when you look at a big mess -How to stagger tasks that are easy to procrastinate throughout the week and month -How to quickly transform a room from messy to fully functional through the "5 Things" tidying method, and other shortcuts requiring minimal energy Read this book to make home feel like a sanctuary again: where you can move with ease, where guilt, self-criticism, and endless checklists have no place, and where you always have permission to rest, even when things aren't finished.
