A cultural history of post-Wall urban, social, political, and cultural transformations in Berlin. Presents a cultural analysis of Berlin’s cultural production, including literature, film, memoirs and non-fiction works, art, media, urban branding campaigns, and cultural diversity initiatives put forth the by the Berlin Senate. Examines Berlin’s branding, urban-economic development and its search for a post-Wall identity by focusing on manifestations of nostalgic longing in documentary films and other cultural products.

Prosperity Pie means: plenty of everything with enough to share! We can be and feel prosperous no matter how much we have or don't have, or what outside circumstances may be.

Today's solar cell multi-GW market is dominated by crystalline silicon (c-Si) wafer technology, however new cell concepts are entering the market. One very promising solar cell design to answer these needs is the silicon hetero-junction solar cell, of which the emitter and back surface field are basically produced by a low temperature growth of ultra-thin layers of amorphous silicon. In this design, amorphous silicon (a-Si: H) constitutes both emitter" and base-contact/back surface field" on both sides of a thin crystalline silicon wafer-base (c-Si) where the electrons and holes are photogenerated; at the same time, a-Si: H passivates the c-Si surface. Recently, cell efficiencies above 23% have been demonstrated for such solar cells.

In this book, the editors present an overview of the state-of-the-art in physics and technology of amorphous-crystalline heterostructure silicon solar cells. The heterojunction concept is introduced, processes and resulting properties of the materials used in the cell andtheir heterointerfaces are discussed and characterization techniques and simulation tools are presented.

Social Justice Pedagogies provides a diverse and wide perspective into making education more robust and useful in light of global injustices and new challenges posed by new media and communication practices, media manipulation, right-wing populism, climate crisis, and intersectional discriminations. Meant to inspire readers to see learning and teaching from a wider perspective of justice, inclusion, equity, and creativity, it argues that relational and mindful approaches to teaching and learning in specific contexts, settings, and place-based experiences are essential in how we determine the value of education. The book draws on contributions from scholars and experts who incorporate social justice into their teaching practices in different disciplines in universities across Canada, the US, and Europe. Social Justice Pedagogies uniquely presents a wide interdisciplinary perspective on social justice in education practices in order to speak to the ways in which we all want to make our research, our classrooms, and our institutions more just. It argues that pedagogy, and specifically teaching and learning, constitutes a process of building relationships between people and knowledge by fostering a learning community.

Technological learning is a key driver behind the improvement of energy technologies and subsequent reduction of production costs. Understanding how and why production costs for energy technologies decline, and whether they will continue to do so in the future, is of crucial importance for policy makers, industrial stakeholders and scientists alike. This timely and informative book therefore provides a comprehensive review of technological development and cost reductions for renewable energy, clean fossil fuel and energy-efficient demand-side technologies. It responds to the need for a quality-controlled data set of experience curves, including assessment of measurement methodology, technological knowledge and associated cost. The expert contributors present a thorough overview and discussion of the pitfalls of applying the experience curve approach, including aspects such as geographical system boundaries, whether the slope of the experience curves is constant or not, statistical error and sensitivity analysis of experience curves, and whether the experience curve approach can be utilized to quantify improvements in energy efficiency. A clear set of recommendations for the use of the experience curve approach is also prescribed.Providing a significant contribution to the current literature on energy and climate models, scenario analysis, and methodological lessons on experience curves, this book will strongly appeal to academics and students in the areas focusing on energy and public sector economics. Policy makers in these fields will also find the book to be of great interest.

Macon to Manassas a novel by John Wayne Dobson and Walter Kevin Sark. It was edited by Edward DeVries. Kevin and John were born in and are life-long residents of Macon, Georgia. Both have known The Lord Jesus Christ as personal Savior for much of their lives. They are close friends and veteran re-enactors of The 16th GA, Co. G Infantry Re-enactment Company, "The Jackson Rifles." The book was a 20-year labor of love dedicated to the Confederate companies that were raised in the authors' native Macon. 23 Confederate combat units were raised during the course of the War from Macon. At War's end, there were not enough survivors to muster 7 companies. With so many men from Macon giving their lives for "The Cause," the authors wanted to write a novel that would not only be good reading, but also tell the story of the brave and honorable men from Macon. Those who survived the war, and those who did not. www.dixieheritage.net

How to Build a Fountain is a collection of bible study lessons based on Paul's model of discipleship. A fresh viewpoint that is written by experienced small-group leaders. Biblical lessons that utilize familiar examples from TV, Movies, Music and Pop-culture. Lessons are formatted for consistency and organization. Before becoming a book, the individual bible lessons were presented in small-group settings with an overwhelming positive response. A great bible study book for individuals, small-group leaders, and church leaders. Frank & John share their small-group successes and offer questions that will encourage conversation. Along with impactful biblical lessons, conclusions, and BIG IDEAS that help readers retain and share lessons.

In the past years, the transiency of European city-making and dwelling has become increasingly hard to disregard. This urban flux calls for a methodological rethinking for those professionals, social and natural scientists, artists, and activists, with an interest in the processes of remaking and reclaiming urban space. With a practical and empirical emphasis, this anthology brings forth a variety of perspectives on urban appropriation strategies, their relation to public space-making, and their implications for future city development, exploring how ideas and practices of appropriation inform and relate to cultural narratives, politico-historical occasions as well as socio-ecological expressions.

This study investigated whether the expression of forgiveness, and conversely the expression of non-forgiveness promote a sense of justice in the offended after an offence has taken place. The study considered a sample of 125 participants and employed a 2 (relationship type: close vs. distant)x 3 (forgiveness: explicit non-forgiveness vs. explicit forgiveness vs. control) experimental design. The central argument was that the expression of forgiveness could address symbolic psychological concerns triggered by an offence and thus play a role in restoring the victim's sense of justice after an offence has taken place. The main findings support this argument by showing that victims who expressed forgiveness to their offenders reported greater value consensus and power/status than victims who expressed nothing to their offenders. Value consensus and power/status in turn enhanced the victim's sense of justice.
