L'Empereur immortel se desinteresse des affaires humaines ; son vice-roi artificiel, le Simulacre de Fer, s'y interesse un peu trop. Des factions ambitieuses menacent de rompre l'harmonie imperiale, tandis que les nations voisines cherchent a contrer l'expansion des Taskiens.

L'Empire taskien est un supplement pour Mythras situe dans le monde antique-fantastique de Thennla. Si vous possedez deja Rivages de Korantie, vous decouvrirez sous un nouveau jour cette puissance rivale des Korantiens. Mais vous pouvez tout a fait utiliser ce supplement avec seulement le supplement gratuit Thennla : vous trouverez tout le necessaire pour creer des personnages taskiens ainsi qu'un scenario adapte a des personnages debutants.

The tribute of the Arakuline Tribe of the northern reaches of the Taskan Empire was lost to bandits many years ago. Now, it is believed to be found, held in the midst of the Tumbrian Forest, well-hidden and well-guarded. The characters are persuaded to mount an expedition to recover this long-lost prize, the heart of which is the fabled King Boar Shield.But the forest belongs to Voka the She Wolf and her powerful allies. Can the characters negotiate such threats?The Arakuline Tribute is set in the world of Thennla. Access to either The Taskan Empire, Shores of Korantia, or the Thennla Sourcebook will be advantageous.

Boards and business leaders expect their key advisors to deliver fresh insights, and increasingly expect them to demonstrate foresight. To achieve what is expected, it is crucial to understand the dynamics of conversations in the boardroom and around the audit committee table. This book provides those unique perspectives. The journey from the 'mailroom to the boardroom' follows the story of a young banker who moved into the internal auditing profession as part of the 'new breed', then rose through the ranks into senior leadership and chief audit executive roles, before assuming audit committee and board roles that had an immense influence on governance, risk, compliance, and audit professionals. Success does not always follow a smooth and uneventful trajectory, and this story reflects insights from both the ups and the downs of the journey. Each chapter shares insights, better practices, case studies, practical examples, and real-life challenges and draws them together into 101 building blocks, each one providing crucial career-long learnings. The storytelling provides insights to people at all levels on the importance of positioning oneself to step into leadership roles, helps them understand how to evaluate and pursue potential career growth opportunities, provides tips on how to holistically manage and advance their career, and inspires higher-level thinking that enhances governance, risk, compliance and audit practices.

This completely updated and revised Second Edition of the popular Workbook of Atmospheric Dispersion Estimates provides an important foundation for understanding dispersion modeling as it is being practiced today. The book and accompanying diskette will help you determine the impacts of various sources of air pollution, including the effects of wind and turbulence, plume rise, and Gaussian dispersion and its limitations. Information is shown in summary graphs as well as in equations. The programs included on the diskette allow you to "get the feel" for the results you'll obtain through the input of various combinations of parameter values. The sensitivity of data to various parameters can be easily explored by changing one value and seeing the effect on the results. The book presents 37 example problems with solutions to show the estimation of atmospheric pollutant concentrations for many situations.

It is my hope that this collection of reviews can be profitably read by all who are interested in evolutionary biology. However, I would like to specifically target it for two disparate groups of biologists seldom men tioned in the same sentence, classical ichthyologists and molecular biologists. Since classical times, and perhaps even before, ichthyologists have stood in awe at the tremendous diversity of fishes. The bulk of effort in the field has always been directed toward understanding this diversity, i. e., extracting from it a coherent picture of evolutionary processes and lineages. This effort has, in turn, always been overwhelmingly based upon morphological comparisons. The practical advantages of such compari sons, especially the ease with which morphological data can be had from preserved museum specimens, are manifold. But considered objectively (outside its context of "tradition"), morphological analysis alone is a poor tool for probing evolutionary processes or elucidating relationships. The concepts of "relationship" and of "evolution" are inherently genetic ones, and the genetic bases of morphological traits are seldom known in detail and frequently unknown entirely. Earlier in this century, several workers, notably Gordon, Kosswig, Schmidt, and, in his salad years, Carl Hubbs, pioneered the application of genetic techniques and modes of reasoning to ichthyology. While certain that most contemporary ichth yologists are familiar with this body of work, I am almost equally certain that few of them regard it as pertinent to their own efforts."
