Kio and the Color of Blood Synopsis (by Bobbie and Bob Loeschner)—A new type of entertainment forces classmates of entire high schools to fight each other to the death until only one student (the best) remains standing, and at Brentwood High it’s Kio who’ll do anything to survive and save his newfound friend, Haruna. It’s a no-holds, no-weapons-barred contest where the creators demand filmed combat under penalty of death and add the horror of bio-weapons and genetically-altered animals into the mix. Filled with bloody violence, gory battles, unusual enemies and allies, twists and turns at every corner, and a surprise ending, Kio and the Color of Blood is the type of book that grabs you from the beginning and doesn’t let go until the very end.

Turbulence remains one of the most challenging problems in classical physics. The papers collected in this volume are the proceedings of an IUTAM S- posium on turbulence, entitled Computational Physics and New Perspectives in Turbulence. The symposium was held in September 2006, at Nagoya U- versity in Japan. The last few years have witnessed a rapid and dramatic rise in our ability to compute highly complex physical systems. As in other ?elds, this has had a major impact on the way in which we approach the problem of turbulence, opening up a new phase of research by providing an opportunity to study the nature of fully-developed turbulence in unprecedented detail. Leading experts in turbulence were brought together at this Symposium to exchange ideas and discuss, in the light of the recent progress in computational methods, new perspectives in our understanding of turbulence. The Symposium also fostered a vigorous interaction between those who pursue computations, and those concerned with developments in experiment and theory. There were 104 participants representing 13 countries, and the presen- tionsandconsequentdebateextendedoveraperiodoffourdays.Throughout, emphasis was placed on the fundamental physical interpretation of turbulent phenomenon. The topics covered included: (i) computational physics and the theoryofcanonicalturbulent?ows;(ii)experimentalapproachestofundam- tal problems in turbulence; (iii) turbulence modeling and numerical methods; and (iv) geophysical and astrophysical turbulence.

In an Influential Fashion profiles 164 fashion designers and retailers from many countries who have had the most impact on American dress and culture from the late 19th century to the year 2000. Each entry introduces a fashion personality or retailer whose influence on the industry reflected societal, political, and/or economic change. The commercial side of fashion, neglected in most fashion encyclopedias, is explored here, with details of licensing agreements and marketing innovations not easily found elsewhere. Students and professionals in fashion design, retailing, costume research, and social history will all find this book a valuable addition to their libraries. Each entry includes the birth and death dates of designers, their education and training, career highlights and accomplishments, and awards they have won. The entry describes the designer or retailer's signature styles, with a keen emphasis on the designer's contributions to American fashion design and culture. As appropriate, the entry summarizes any licensing agreements and influential marketing innovations. Web sites, lists of museums and fashion design schools, and numerous appendices make In an Influential Fashion a complete resource on American fashion history for the late 19th and 20th centuries.

Excerpt: Shin Seong-il (born May 8, 1937) is a South Korean actor, film director, producer, and former politician. He was a star in the 1960s and 1970s, and has starred in over 500 films. *Note; the whole list is referenced. Choe Bu (1454-1504) was a Korean official during the early Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910). He is best known for the account of his shipwrecked travels in China from February to July 1488, during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). He was eventually banished from the Joseon court in 1498 and executed in 1504 during two political purges. However, in 1506 he was exonerated and given posthumous honors by the Joseon court. Choe's diary accounts of his travels in China became widely printed in the 16th century in both Korea and Japan. Modern historians also utilize his written works, since his travel diary provides a unique outsider's perspective on Chinese culture in the 15th century and valuable information on China's cities and regional differences. The attitudes and opinions expressed in his writing represent in part the standpoints and views of the 15th-c...

La Segunda Guerra Mundial es uno de esos hechos históricos que sirven para marcar la frontera entre dos épocas, dos mundos, dos formas de pensar, de vivir y de actuar. Fue el mayor acontecimiento histórico del siglo XX y uno de los principales de la Historia. Entre 1939 y 1945 se produjo un choque de ideologías, de visiones del mundo cuyos resultados vivimos aun hoy en el siglo XXI. Desde el concepto de guerra total hasta el uso de la bomba atómica pasando por el Holocausto, la descolonización o la guerra fría, nada de eso se entendería sin la contienda que aquí se cuenta. Además de un relato de la guerra, con sus frentes, batallas, esfuerzo económico, resistencia o colaboracionismo, esta obra reproduce y analiza los principales iconos que generó, imágenes que forman parte de nuestra cultura visual. A pesar de los millones de protagonistas, las grandes decisiones estuvieron en manos de un puñado de hombres cuya trayectoria se describe en detalle. Las armas más sobresalientes que se utilizaron en la contienda son descritas y reproducidas gráficamente, explicando su importancia en el contexto bélico. Esta obra se completa con una completa cartografía, una cronología de los principales frentes y una bibliografía que pretende ayudar a moverse por la jungla de las publicaciones sobre la Segunda Guerra Mundial. El lector encontrará en este libro un intento honesto de presentar una visión equilibrada y divulgativa de lo que pasó en el mundo entre septiembre de 1939 y agosto de 1945.
