Thriller eBook: Sea of Shadows


“Sea of Shadows”, written by Jeff Edwards

A minor accident at a German nuclear power plant, a Biological Warfare attack on the British Embassy in Washington, DC, and a secret arms deal combine to drive a trusted NATO Ally into an illegal alliance with a rogue Middle Eastern state. With the world hovering on the brink of war, a handful of U.S. Navy warships must track down and destroy a wolfpack of state-of-the-art submarines. Their enemy is skilled in deception, and incredibly lethal. Out-gunned, out-maneuvered, and out-thought, the U.S. Navy crews must throw the rulebook out the window, and become every bit as devious and deadly as their enemy. If they fail, the consequences are unthinkable…

Google: The Missing Manual, Second Edition

Google.com is one of the most popular sites on the Internet and is used around the world by millions of people every day. Sure, you know how to "Google it" when you're searching for something--anything!--on the Web. It's plenty fast and easy to use. But did you know how much more you could achieve with the world's best search engine by clicking beyond the "Google Search" button?

While you can interface with Google in 97 languages and glean results in 35, you can't find any kind of instruction manual from Google. Lucky for you, our fully updated and greatly expanded second edition to the bestselling Google: The Missing Manual covers everything you could possibly want to know about Google, including the newest and coolest--and often most underused (what is Froogle, anyway?)--features. There's even a full chapter devoted to Gmail, Google's free email service that includes a whopping 2.5 GB of space).
This wise and witty guide delivers the complete scoop on Google, from how it works to how you can search far more effectively and efficiently (no more scrolling through 168 pages of seemingly irrelevant results); take best advantage of Google's lesser-known features, such as Google Print, Google Desktop, and Google Suggest; get your website listed on Google; track your visitors with Google Analytics; make money with AdWords and AdSense; and much more.
Whether you're new to Google or already a many-times-a-day user, you're sure to find tutorials, tips, tricks, and tools that take you well beyond simple search to Google gurudom.

Handbook for Bloggers and Cyber-Dissidents from Reporters Without Borders


Handbook for Bloggers and Cyber-Dissidents from Reporters Without Borders

The handbook offers practical advice and techniques on how to create a blog, make entries and get the blog to show up in search engine results. It gives clear explanations about blogging for all those whose online freedom of expression is subject to restrictions, and it shows how to sidestep the censorship measures imposed by certain governments, with a practical example that demonstrates the use of the censorship circumvention software Tor.


The leaders of authoritarian countries are becoming more and suspicious of bloggers, these men and women who, although not journalists, publish news and information online and who, worse still, often tackle subjects the so-called traditional media dare not cover. In some countries, blogs have become an important new source of news. It is to protect this source that Reporters Without Borders has updated its handbook.

Change Your Age: Using Your Body and Brain to Feel Younger, Stronger, and More Fit


Change Your Age: Using Your Body and Brain to Feel Younger, Stronger, and More Fit

Author Frank Wildman is an expert in physical movement and mind-body interaction. In this guide to aging well, Wildman introduces concepts regarding exercise that may be new and surprising.
Stiffness does not have to come with aging. His patient, nurturing tone makes it easy to follow, exploring the possibility of feeling and moving as though one is years younger. Returning to the ease and flexibility of childhood, one’s muscles can relearn actions creating less stress and producing less stiffness.
Wildman emphasizes that the program is intuitive rather than set by rules or repetitions. It is about rethinking movement. The book is divided into six parts, with a series of 30 lessons focused on natural body movement. Some lessons have advanced variations. The four major positions for refining and redefining movement are lying, sitting, kneeling, and crouching. The point of the lessons is to fully engage the body in actions rather than overworking separate parts. The legs and neck are most vulnerable to being overworked. The signs of this overworking are a shuffling gait due to stiff legs and turning the whole body when all that’s desired is turning the head. Recommended for people approaching middle age.

Android Programming with Tutorials from the anddev.org-Community


Android Programming with Tutorials from the anddev.org-Community

This document was written for developers who have worked with Java™ before and want to start developing for the Android Platform. I tried to make this as much “hands on” as possible, placing example codes everywhere it fit. Also I tried to insert as many picture as possible, because they liven up the learning process and relax the reader’s eyes.
But unfortunately coding is not everything; one has to learn about some basic facts of the Android Platform to fully understand. That is what is described on the first ~XXX pages. It is not necessary to read all those describing pages, but it is preferable. You could decide to treat it as a kind of reference. What you would read there is also explained when it occurs during the “hands on”-process. So you could directly start at Hello World – The Android Way.

Semiconductor Device Fundamentals by Robert F. Pierret


Semiconductor Device Fundamentals by Robert F. Pierret

Pierret explains the fun details of device physics in a way that makes sense. Discussion on a certain device (PN diode, BJT, MOSFET) usually starts with holes and electrons moving around and basic equations are slowly built. Deviations from the ideal are then discussed as well as methods to minimize those deviations.
