Practical SQL is an approachable and fast-paced guide to SQL (Structured Query Language), the standard programming language for defining, organizing, and exploring data in relational databases. Anthony DeBarros, a journalist and data analyst, focuses on using SQL to find the story within your data. The examples and code use the open-source database PostgreSQL and its companion pgAdmin interface, and the concepts you learn will apply to most database management systems, including MySQL, Oracle, SQLite, and others.* You’ll first cover the fundamentals of databases and the SQL language, then build skills by analyzing data from real-world datasets such as US Census demographics, New York City taxi rides, and earthquakes from US Geological Survey. Each chapter includes exercises and examples that teach even those who have never programmed before all the tools necessary to build powerful databases and access information quickly and efficiently. You’ll learn how to: •Create databases and related tables using your own data •Aggregate, sort, and filter data to find patterns •Use functions for basic math and advanced statistical operations •Identify errors in data and clean them up •Analyze spatial data with a geographic information system (PostGIS) •Create advanced queries and automate tasks This updated second edition has been thoroughly revised to reflect the latest in SQL features, including additional advanced query techniques for wrangling data. This edition also has two new chapters: an expanded set of instructions on for setting up your system plus a chapter on using PostgreSQL with the popular JSON data interchange format. Learning SQL doesn’t have to be dry and complicated. Practical SQL delivers clear examples with an easy-to-follow approach to teach you the tools you need to build and manage your own databases. * Microsoft SQL Server employs a variant of the language called T-SQL, which is not covered by Practical SQL.

Since its release in 1949, The Hero with a Thousand Faces has influenced millions of readers by combining the insights of modern psychology with Joseph Campbell’s revolutionary understanding of comparative mythology. In these pages, Campbell outlines the Hero’s Journey, a universal motif of adventure and transformation that runs through virtually all of the world’s mythic traditions. He also explores the Cosmogonic Cycle, the mythic pattern of world creation and destruction. As part of the Joseph Campbell Foundation’s Collected Works of Joseph Campbell, this third edition features expanded illustrations, a comprehensive bibliography, and more accessible sidebars. As relevant today as when it was first published, The Hero with a Thousand Faces continues to find new audiences in fields ranging from religion and anthropology to literature and film studies. The book has also profoundly influenced creative artists — including authors, songwriters, game designers, and filmmakers — and continues to inspire all those interested in the inherent human need to tell stories.

New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Kresley Cole continues her seductive and “devilishly passionate” ( RT Book Reviews ) Immortals After Dark series with this tale of a vampire shunned by his own kind and a beautiful phantom, bound together by a passion they cannot resist.

To prevent him from harming others, vampire warrior Conrad Wroth’s brothers imprison him in an abandoned manor. But there, a female only he can see seems determined to drive him further into madness. The exquisite creature torments him with desire, leaving his body racked with lust and his soul torn as he finds himself coveting her for his own. Yet even if Conrad can win Néomi, evil still surrounds her. Once he returns to the brutality of his past to protect her, will he succumb to the dark needs seething inside him?

1 online resource : "A brilliant, haunting, and profoundly original portrait of the defining tragedy of our time. In this epic history of extermination and survival, Timothy Snyder presents a new explanation of the great atrocity of the twentieth century, and reveals the risks that we face in the twenty-first. Based on new sources from eastern Europe and forgotten testimonies from Jewish survivors, Black Earth recounts the mass murder of the Jews as an event that is still close to us, more comprehensible than we would like to think, and thus all the more terrifying. The Holocaust began in a dark but accessible place, in Hitler's mind, with the thought that the elimination of Jews would restore balance to the planet and allow Germans to win the resources they desperately needed. Such a worldview could be realized only if Germany destroyed other states, so Hitler's aim was a colonial war in Europe itself. In the zones of statelessness, almost all Jews died. A few people, the righteous few, aided them, without support from institutions. Much of the new research in this book is devoted to understanding these extraordinary individuals. The almost insurmountable difficulties they faced only confirm the dangers of state destruction and ecological panic. These men and women should be emulated, but in similar circumstances few of us would do so. By overlooking the lessons of the Holocaust, Snyder concludes, we have misunderstood modernity and endangered the future. The early twenty-first century is coming to resemble the early twentieth, as growing preoccupations with food and water accompany ideological challenges to global order. Our world is closer to Hitler's than we like to admit, and saving it requires us to see the Holocaust as it was -- and ourselves as we are. Groundbreaking, authoritative, and utterly absorbing, Black Earth reveals a Holocaust that is not only history but warning."-- Includes bibliographical references Hitler's world -- Living space -- Berlin, Warsaw, Moscow -- The promise of Palestine -- The state destroyers -- Double occupation -- The greater evil -- Germans, Poles, Soviets, Jews -- The Auschwitz paradox -- Sovereignty and survival -- The grey saviors -- Partisans of God and man -- The righteous few -- Our world

Blasting clichéd career advice, the contrarian pundit and creator of Dilbert recounts the humorous ups and downs of his career, revealing the outsized role of luck in our lives and how best to play the system. Scott Adams has likely failed at more things than anyone you've ever met or anyone you've even heard of. So how did he go from hapless office worker and serial failure to the creator of Dilbert, one of the world's most famous syndicated comic strips, in just a few years? In How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big, Adams shares the game plan he's followed since he was a teen: invite failure in, embrace it, then pick its pocket. No career guide can offer advice that works for everyone. As Adams explains, your best bet is to study the ways of others who made it big and try to glean some tricks and strategies that make sense for you. Adams pulls back the covers on his own unusual life and shares how he turned one failure after another—including his corporate career, his inventions, his investments, and his two restaurants—into something good and lasting. There's a lot to learn from his personal story, and a lot of entertainment along the way. Adams discovered some unlikely truths that helped to propel him forward. For instance: • Goals are for losers. Systems are for winners. • “Passion” is bull. What you need is personal energy. • A combination of mediocre skills can make you surprisingly valuable. • You can manage your odds in a way that makes you look lucky to others. Adams hopes you can laugh at his failures while discovering some unique and helpful ideas on your own path to personal victory. As he writes: “This is a story of one person's unlikely success within the context of scores of embarrassing failures. Was my eventual success primarily a result of talent, luck, hard work, or an accidental just-right balance of each? All I know for sure is that I pursued a conscious strategy of managing my opportunities in a way that would make it easier for luck to find me.”

Em O estreito do Lobo, sua segunda aventura na gelada Lapônia, os detetives precisam investigar um afogamento.

Numa terra longínqua e peculiar, às vésperas de passarem três meses sem que o sol se ponha, Nina e Klemet estão com os nervos à flor da pele e vão precisar de todas as forças para desvendar o mistério. 4a capa 2 Sobre a obra 3 Sobre o autor 4 Folha de rosto 5 Dedicatória 6 Sumário 7 1 12 2 17 3 21 4 26 5 31 6 33 7 37 8 43 9 50 10 52 11 60 12 65 13 69 14 75 15 77 16 81 17 84 18 87 19 93 20 98 21 101 22 105 23 110 24 113 25 118 26 123 27 131 28 134 29 141 30 145 31 149 32 156 33 159 34 163 35 165 36 170 37 177 38 181 39 188 40 191 41 196 42 199 43 206 44 214 45 219 46 223 47 226 48 232 49 239 50 243 51 245 52 248 53 254 54 258 55 263 56 268 57 272 58 279 59 284 60 290 61 295 62 299 63 304 Créditos 309 Mystery; Thriller & Suspense,Thrillers & Suspense,Two hours or more (65-100 pages),Literature & Fiction,Foreign Languages,Portuguese,Crime; Thriller & Mystery,Foreign Language Fiction,Thrillers,VisionVox,remessa_29

Evangeline Volpe ha sempre creduto nell'amore e nel lieto fine... Fino al giorno in cui scopre che quello che credeva essere il ragazzo della sua vita sta per sposare un'altra. Nel disperato tentativo di impedire le nozze, Evangeline stringe un patto con il Fatidico Principe di Cuori, affascinante quanto malvagio. In cambio del suo aiuto, il Fato chiede a Evangeline tre baci, che dovrà dare quando e a chi deciderà lui. Ma già al primo dei tre baci promessi, Evangeline impara a sue spese che mettersi in affari con un immortale può rivelarsi un gioco molto pericoloso, e che ciò che il Principe di Cuori vuole da lei è più di quanto si è fatto promettere. I piani che ha fatto per Evangeline potrebbero portare al più straordinario dei lieto fine o alla più spettacolare delle tragedie...

This work examines the history and politics of Greece from 1941 to 1974. During this period Greece experienced years of brutal foreign occupation, savage civil war, dominance by those on the Right of the ideological spectrum, and a military dictatorship. One overarching characteristic of this phase in Greek history was constant interference by many including, of course, the foreign occupiers as well as the British and the Americans. In addition, during these years certain segments of the population were prosecuted, persecuted, imprisoned, tortured, sent to labor camps, exiled, and many were killed because they resisted the occupiers, or because of their ideological beliefs and political standing. These are among the reasons why so many Greeks consider their modern history to be difficult and “unkind”. Although foreign interference has not lessened, some might argue, it has increased since the financial crisis beginning in 2008-2009, many aspects of the exclusivist state have been eliminated after the collapse of the military dictatorship in 1974. And despite the brief rise of extremist Left- and Right-wing politics, today's political landscape is more moderate. Good reasons for Greeks to think that better days lay ahead.

Her quest to help wherever she was most needed led her finally to Ruatha Hold, where Lord Alessan was frantically preparing the precious serum needed for mass inoculations against the dread plague. Nerilka had long ago abandoned the hope of marriage and a home of her own. Now she found happiness in being useful and appreciated-first the Healers and then Alessan made very clear that they were grateful for her help. She had no idea that her new path would change the course of her life forever!Universes : Dragonriders of Pern [12]Library : FantasyOrder : 12Audio Book : YesRead : ReadFormats : EPUBISBN : 9780345339492

"This book is a critical examination of the military and the police and their role in shaping the South African state during the 20th century, and especially during the past thirty years. Looking at the "security establishment" - the South African Defence Force (SADF), South African Police (SAP), the Department of Defence (DOD), the intelligence services (NIS), the State Security Council (SSC) and the arms industry (ARMSCOR), the nature of the South African state is examined including the importance of the military and the question of the state's position - police state, military dictatorship or a state with an important but essentially limited role for the military. The case is made for an even-handed moral approach in the state's military activity. This book provides histories of the military and police in the 19th and 20th centuries including first-hand accounts from retired officers and state employees. It contains much original thinking and analysis and shows how the South African state is now in crisis, trying to maintain minority rule or at least white influence, despite the inevitable end of the white minority state."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

China boasts a history of art lasting over 5,000 years and embracing a huge diversity of forms- objects of jade, lacquer and porcelain, painted scrolls and fans, sculptures in stone, bronze and wood, and murals. But this rich tradition has not, until now been fully appreciated in the West where scholars have focused attention on the European high arts of painting and sculpture, downplaying arts more highly prized by the Chinese themselves, such as calligraphy. This book marks a breakthrough in the study of the subject. Drawing on recent innovative scholarship, and newly-accessible studies in China itself, the author surveys the full spectrum of the visual arts in China. He ranges from the Neolithic period to the art sconce of the early 21st century, examining Chinese art in a variety of contexts- as it has been designed for tombs, commissioned by rulers, displayed in temples, created by the men and women of the educated elite, and bought and sold in the marketplace. This updated edition contains expanded coverage of modern and contemporary art, from the fall of the empires in 1911 to the growing international interest in the art of an increasingly confident and booming China. -- from Back Cover

Most Perl programmers were originally trained as C and Unix programmers, so the Perl programs that they write bear a strong resemblance to C programs. However, Perl incorporates many features that have their roots in other languages such as Lisp. These advanced features are not well understood and are rarely used by most Perl programmers, but they are very powerful. They can automate tasks in everyday programming that are difficult to solve in any other way. One of the most powerful of these techniques is writing functions that manufacture or modify other functions. For example, instead of writing ten similar functions, a programmer can write a general pattern or framework that can then create the functions as needed according to the pattern. For several years Mark Jason Dominus has worked to apply functional programming techniques to Perl. Now Mark brings these flexible programming methods that he has successfully taught in numerous tutorials and training sessions to a wider audience.<br><br>* Introduces powerful programming methods—new to most Perl programmers—that were previously the domain of computer scientists<br>* Gradually builds up confidence by describing techniques of progressive sophistication<br>* Shows how to improve everyday programs and includes numerous engaging code examples to illustrate the methods

"[B]rilliant, timely, funny, heartbreaking" (Jojo Moyes). Queenie Jenkins is a 25-year-old Jamaican British woman living in London, straddling two cultures and slotting neatly into neither. She works at a national newspaper, where she’s constantly forced to compare herself to her white middle-class peers. After a messy break-up with her long-term white boyfriend, Queenie seeks comfort in all the wrong places...including several hazardous men who do a good job of occupying brain space and a bad job of affirming self-worth."Lurking just beneath the glittering, fast-paced surface of the story are all sorts of disturbing things... I have never read a novel that shows the experience of everyday, low-level racism so vividly, or so convincingly... a funny, clever, heartbreaking lightning bolt of a first novel, by a writer bristling with talent." - Kate Saunders, The TimesWith “fresh and honest” (Jojo Moyes) prose, Queenie is a remarkably relatable exploration of what it means to be a modern woman searching for meaning in today’s world.
