Where the Earth Meets the Sky -...

Louise K. Blight

Antarctica is a land of extremes. But while its hurricane force winds, tooth-breaking cold, and resident penguins have long been iconic, the perspective of a practicing female scientist is all but absent from modern day Antarctic accounts. Where the Earth Meets the Sky fills that gap.Louise and her campmate David Ainley—one of the greatest Antarctic scientists on the planet—live in a world defined by hostile weather, breathtaking beauty, a continuous parade of avian visitors, and an occasional human visitor. There she explores the lingering grief that has followed the untimely death of her sister, and presents penguins as a window into how climate change and other environmental impacts are altering what has been one of the most untouched corners of the globe.While penguins and the awe-inspiring landscapes they inhabit provide the thread that runs through this story, a central theme is how the world's most unforgiving environment has shaped the psyches of Antarctica’s human visitors, past and present.Experiencing the Antarctic wildernesses has the potential to heal the human psyche and, perhaps, to give us the optimism to reimagine our relationship with the natural world.

Search for Exoplanets The: The...

Editors Charles River

While modern technology has helped astronomers view the furthest reaches of the Solar System, it has also allowed scientists to start discovering planets orbiting distant stars. To make it easier to assess the relative mass and size of the new planets being discovered, scientists give these measurements as multiples of those properties for either Jupiter or Earth. In other words, if the planet is the same mass as Jupiter, then this measure would be listed as 1.0 MJ. If it were three times the mass of Earth, then it would be listed as 3.0 MEarth. The sizes of exoplanets are frequently given by expressing their radii as multiples of Jupiter’s radius or as multiples of Earth’s radius, RJ and REarth, respectively.
Of course, given the immense distances involved, detecting exoplanets has always been hard, even to this day. The variations of light that might be evidence of an exoplanet can be caused by other phenomena, and separating the false positives from the actual detections is part of the rigor required by modern planet hunters. For example, in July 1988, a Canadian team led by astronomers Bruce Campbell, Gordon Walker, and Stephenson Yang discovered persistent indications that a planet orbited the primary star in the Gamma Cephei system, 44.98 light-years (13.79 parsecs) from the Earth. Though the technique they used was successfully employed in many subsequent discoveries, the quality of their data was insufficient for others to verify as unequivocally the result of an extrasolar planet. For reasons of poor data quality, the claimed discovery of Gamma Cephei Ab was retracted in 1992.
The first confirmed discovery of an exoplanet involved a system that surprised most planet hunters. While most astronomers had been looking to find planets orbiting stars in the main sequence (between infancy and old age) or in their old age (giant phase), the first confirmed planets were found to orbit a dead star.

Digital Prospecting - Finding...

Mike Jones, Ken Guest

Traditional cold calling is becoming less and less effective every day because the way people prefer to communicate is rapidly changing. 
 
 
 
Are you frustrated with the diminishing returns from traditional prospecting methods? Have you tried and failed to use social media and email to develop a consistent stream of quality leads? Do you have the sense that there should be a better calendar structure to your overall prospecting strategy, so that there's a clear, unfolding pattern of contact that turns leads into active business opportunities? 
 
 
 
In Digital Prospecting, Mike Jones and Ken Guest offer a proven, battle-tested process for an integrated twenty-first-century prospecting system that leverages today's social technologies. The book outlines the most effective ways to prospect using email and social selling interactions as the initial point of contact with the prospect. The process it offers is not meant to replace cold calls. It's meant only to give you the tools you need to evaluate which method makes the most sense, given your unique situation. Digital Prospecting is a must-listen for front-line salespeople eager to bring their business development plan up to date . . . and for the executives who train, supervise, coach, and mentor them.
