Rise of the New World Order 2: The Awakening


J. Micah'el Thomas Hays - 2015
    If you have not read my first book, “Rise of the New World Order: The Culling of Man”, this second-in-a-series book you are now reading will not make the best sense because it builds on and assumes you know what we went over in my first book. There is terminology and information in the first book that I reference often in this second book. Also, you need to know what my particular positions on various things are so there are no surprises for you here. As you know from my first book, the same occult group of people who have been ruling over humanity for thousands of years continue to do so to this day. The reason they have been able to do this and do it consistently is that their families worship Satan, who is called the ‘god of this world’ in the Bible.It is always those who are closest to Satan that get to rule the world throughout history, just like it is today, and the demonic torch has been passed down the family bloodlines for millennia…all the way back to King Nimrod, who you know from my first book is the ‘Antichrist’ that they will resurrect from the dead via his DNA sample. It is important for the brethren to know everything we can about Satan because he is exactly the puppet master of the 'New World Order'. This is a very deep subject that was put upon me to work through, and we are going to connect the dots of ancient history to formulate a focused image of who and what Satan really is. Information in this book that I'm basing my position about Satan on comes from the Bible, extra-Biblical sources such as the Book of Enoch, and the historical record of the ancient mythologies of empires gone by. I'm going to show you how the Bible confirms the basis of what turned into all those ancient religions, which we call mythologies today. This is probably the most revealing book ever composed about Satan, I have found none like it in existence or I wouldn't have taken the trouble to construct it, just like my first book.The time for a mass-awakening of humanity is short and I need your help! I'm working on the next book of this series right now and hope to have it out within one year. This book will be called “Rise of the New World Order 3: Sentinel of Yahshua”. Please support my efforts by purchasing a copy of my book, and telling others about the existence of my ongoing work here. Thanks for backing me up, friends! God bless all. -Sentinel Jeff Hays

Ethical Leadership and Decision Making in Education: Applying Theoretical Perspectives to Complex Dilemmas, Third Edition


Joan Poliner Shapiro - 2000
    Ethical Leadership and Decision Making in Education: Applying Theoretical Perspectives to Complex Dilemmas, Second Edition: *demonstrates the application of different ethical paradigms (the ethics of justice, care, critique, and the profession) through discussion and analysis of real-life moral dilemmas that educational leaders face in their schools and communities;*addresses some of the practical, pedagogical, and curricular issues related to the teaching of ethics for educational leaders;*emphasizes the importance of ethics instruction from a variety of theoretical approaches; and*provides a process that instructors might follow to develop their own ethics unit or course.Part I provides an overview of why ethics is so important, especially for today's educational leaders, and presents a multiparadigm approach essential to practitioners as they grapple with ethical dilemmas. Part II deals with the dilemmas themselves. It includes a brief introduction to how the cases were constructed, an illustration of how the multiparadigm approach may be applied to a real dilemma, and ethical dilemmas written by graduate students that represent the kinds of dilemmas faced by practicing administrators in urban, suburban, and rural settings in an era full of complexities and contradictions. Part III focuses on pedagogy and provides teaching notes for the instructor. The authors discuss the importance of self-reflection on the part of both instructors and students, and model how they thought through their own personal and professional ethical codes as well as reflected upon the critical incidents in their lives that shape their teaching and frequently determine what they privileged in class.New in the Second Edition: *A completely new chapter emphasizing religious differences and presenting the contradictions between religion and culture;*A completely new chapter on testing, juxtaposing the paradox of accountability with responsibility;*Several new dilemmas focusing on higher education, recognizing that many educational leadership training programs include students with this focus; and*Changes throughout to update the text, including a discussion of recent scholarship in the field of ethical leadership.Ethical Leadership and Decision Making in Education: Applying Theoretical Perspectives to Complex Dilemmas, Second Edition is easily adaptable for a variety of uses with a wide range of audiences. It is equally valuable as a text for university courses related to the preparation of educational leaders and as a professional reference for aspiring and practicing administrators, teacher leaders, office personnel, and educational policy makers.

Thirty Seconds to Impact


Peter Burkill - 2010
    It was not until moments before landing that anything went wrong. Coming in to Heathrow Airport, the plane suffered inexplicable loss of power to both engines, and it was suddenly likely that the plane would plough into a built-up area outside the airport, with the loss of all lives on board. Peter tells us in graphic detail his thoughts and actions when he managed to help save the plane at the last moment thanks to a flash of inspiration that led him to change the position of the wing flaps, which appeared to gain the vehicle enough precious time to make it over the perimeter fence and land on the grass, short of the runway. For both Maria and Peter, their lives following the crash have resulted in experiences that they never would have expected to have happened. There isn't a handbook with rules to follow after a crash so the subsequent aftermath was laced with events that could have been handled better from all sides, which lead to Maria and Peter having to find strength inside them that they had never needed before. A little more than a year later, they have used these strengths to begin a new chapter in their lives; starting with leaving British Airways and celebrating a second chance to enjoy life.But there are still nights when they find themselves awake, crying about what could have happened on that fateful day.

Machine Learning: Fundamental Algorithms for Supervised and Unsupervised Learning With Real-World Applications


Joshua Chapmann - 2017
    Right?! Machine Learning is a branch of computer science that wants to stop programming computers using a detailed list of commands to follow blindly. Instead, their aim is to implement high-level routines that teach computers how to approach new and unknown problems – these are called algorithms. In practice, they want to give computers the ability to Learn and to Adapt. We can use these algorithms to obtain insights, recognize patterns and make predictions from data, images, sounds or videos we have never seen before – or even knew existed. Unfortunately, the true power and applications of today’s Machine Learning Algorithms remain deeply misunderstood by most people. Through this book I want fix this confusion, I want to shed light on the most relevant Machine Learning Algorithms used in the industry. I will show you exactly how each algorithm works, why it works and when you should use it.
