There are so many people I have to thank for getting this book to
publication. But firstly I have to thank "The Bride," Barbie Ann.
How she has spent over 40 years with me I have no idea. Not only
has she typed the original manuscript, but she has translated it
from my Irish gibberish, into reasonable English, without loosing
the content. Perhaps because she is the only person who can fully
understand me. My good friend David Cunningham, has been a
fantastic inspiration to me, and has helped enormously. Becky my
eldest Granddaughter, who helped us old Farts to understand our
computer. Chef, son, and best friend Stephen, who watches out for
me at every turn. The friends that I have worked with over the
years, and not to forget, without any hesitation, my customers
without whom, I would not have had anything to write about.

This market is the largest and most liquid-call type derivative in
the world. Philips and Connolly intend to clarify definitions and
discuss why the warrant is so important to the institutional
investor. The authors consider its versatility and the implications
for profit from the tremendous volatility in this market.
Experts from wine tasters to radiologists to bird watchers have all
undergone perceptual learning-long-term changes in perception that
result from practice or experience. Philosophers have been
discussing such cases for centuries, from the 14th-century Indian
philosopher Vedanta Desika to the 18th-century Scottish philosopher
Thomas Reid, and into contemporary times. This book uses recent
evidence from psychology and neuroscience to show that perceptual
learning is genuinely perceptual, rather than post-perceptual. It
also offers a taxonomy for classifying cases in the philosophical
literature. In some cases, perceptual learning involves changes in
how one attends; in other cases, it involves a learned ability to
differentiate two properties, or to perceive two properties as
unified. Connolly uses this taxonomy to rethink several domains of
perception in terms of perceptual learning, including multisensory
perception, color perception, and speech perception. As a whole,
the book offers a theory of the function of perceptual learning.
Perceptual learning embeds into our quick perceptual systems what
would be a slower task were it to be done in a controlled,
cognitive manner. A novice wine taster drinking a Cabernet
Sauvignon might have to think about its features first and then
infer the type of wine, while an expert can identify it
immediately. This learned ability to immediately identify the wine
enables the expert to think about other things like the vineyard or
the vintage of the wine. More generally, perceptual learning serves
to free up cognitive resources for other tasks. This book offers a
comprehensive empirically-informed account, and explores the
nature, scope, and theoretical implications of perceptual learning.
Nine years in the making, award-winning poet Kevin Connolly’s new
collection extends its author’s investigation of identity,
authority, intention, and authenticity. What is public poetry? In
an age of tweets and trolls, what should it even try to be? Through
revision, redaction, ventriloquism, homage, self-sabotage, and
outright plunder, the poems in Connolly’s Xiphoid Process
interrogate the alleged futility and alleged insight of mid-life.
Are we who we are simply because we’d otherwise be nothing? Or
are we (more hopefully) something parked, for a time, in time,
trying to make something useful out of the experience? Walt
Whitman, Tom Petty, Alec Baldwin, Doug Stanhope, Journey, Judd
Nelson, Billy Ripken, Johnny Weissmuller, Don Felder, Lindsay
Lohan, Shiprock, NM, the police blotter at Point Reyes Station,
California, and the moons of Saturn are all poised to make their
case in the poet’s latest deliberations.
What are we thinking at any given moment? What happens to a thought
as that moment, on its way to oblivion, collides with its
successor? Rambunctious, witty, joyous, and bittersweet, drift is
an investigation conducted by a truly unfettered imagination. In
fluid, sparkling cadences, Kevin Connolly's poems let the mind's
downtime have the stage for a change -- the desert sky transformed;
Spring Break as viewed by passing skipjacks; narratives of danger
and dream narrative; a meditation on the business end of a sea
cucumber; figures of history disfigured and left to wander the
consumer grid -- such are the entirely odd, entirely current events
in Connolly's world, a realm that stands at an acute angle from the
place we normally live in but which we all seem to drift into. As
one of Connolly's own high-voltage sonnets states, "what stops the
heart starts the world." In drift's constant juxtaposition of
abundance and loneliness, we hear what it is to confront a new
century, having quite likely failed during the last. We're
reminded, by a voice unlike any other on the Canadian landscape,
that our solitude is painful yet precious.
Discover the deep purpose hidden at the very core of your being To
know your true calling-your dharma, as the yogis say-is perhaps the
greatest desire within each of us. And yet, few can say we know our
purpose with absolute certainty. Fortunately, there is a
time-tested guide-an ancient map-for discovering and fulfilling
your unique calling. In The Great Work of Your Life, Stephen Cope
walks you through each step of the journey. Cope teaches that the
secrets to unlocking the mystery of your dharma can be found in the
spiritual classic, the Bhagavad Gita-a timeless tale about the path
to dharma, told through an instructive dialogue between the fabled
archer Arjuna and his divine mentor, Krishna. In The Great Work of
Your Life, Cope uses Arjuna's journey as a framework for each of us
to discover our own dharma, masterfully weaving together stories of
both well-known and ordinary Western lives. Throughout the book,
Cope explores the "Four Pillars of Dharma," or the stages we move
through as we fulfill our own true callings. Each pillar is
illustrated with riveting true stories, including: Jane Goodall's
ability to follow her heart without question * The little-known
tale of Walt Whitman's dharma discovery in the second half of life
* How living your purpose can be like training for the Olympics in
the story of Susan B. Anthony * Ludwig van Beethoven's triumphs
over childhood abuse, depression, and going deaf * Gandhi's
transformation from tongue-tied youth to leader of the Indian
independence movement * Understanding how divine guidance works
with the life of Harriet Tubman * Additional insights and tales
from the lives of both famous luminaries and everyday people "We
feel the happiest and most fulfilled when we bring highly
concentrated effort to our true calling," teaches Cope. Moving and
inspiring, The Great Work of Your Life is a call to action and
step-by-step guide for each of us to discover and embrace our
dharma.
