Sinossi

This is a completely updated and expanded version.
 
What is the cloud? Discover the secrets of the cloud through simple explanations that use lots of pictures and lots of examples.
 
Why learn about the cloud? It’s the future. The cloud is the future of software, the future of computing, and the future of business. If you’re not up on the cloud, the future will move on without you. Don’t miss out.
 
Not a techie? Don’t worry. I wrote this book for you! After reading Explain Cloud Like I'm 10, you will understand the cloud. You will understand how the cloud works. You will understand all the major technologies that make up the cloud. When you hear someone say some new cool thing is in the cloud, you’ll understand exactly what they mean. You will feel the cloud deep in your bones. That’s a promise.
 
How do I deliver on that promise? I’ll tell you a little secret: the cloud is not that hard to understand. It’s just that nobody has taken the time to explain it properly.
 
I take the time. I go slow. You’ll learn step-by-step, one idea at a time. You’ll learn by seeing and understanding. You’ll learn something new, whether you’re a beginner, someone who knows a little and wants to know more or thinking about a career change.

    Award-winning and beloved author Helen Humphreys discovers her local herbarium and realizes we need to look for beauty in whatever nature we have left — no matter how diminished
    		 
    Award-winning poet and novelist Helen Humphreys returns to her series of nature meditations in this gorgeously written and illustrated book that takes a deep look at the forgotten world of herbariums and the people who amassed collections of plant specimens in the 19th and 20th centuries. From Emily Dickinson’s and Henry David Thoreau’s collections to the amateur naturalists whose names are forgotten but whose collections still grace our world, herbariums are the records of the often-humble plants that are still with us and those that are lost. Over the course of a year, Humphreys considers life and loss and the importance of finding solace in nature.
    		 
    Illustrated throughout with images of herbarium specimens, Humphreys’s own botanical drawings, and archival photographs, this will be the perfect gift for Humphreys’s many fans, nature enthusiasts, and for all who loved Birds Art Life.

    A Revolutionary Breakthrough in Dental Health"Can you regrow teeth?" That’s the question you’re probably wondering.The answer is..."yes"...but not in the way you may think. Let’s put it this way, your body can’t grow back a new tooth like it would for a piece of hair, nail, or skin layer that naturally replaces itself. However, a tooth can be regrown on a surface level which is known as “tooth remineralization.”What is tooth remineralization? It’s the regrowth process of restoring vital minerals and adding back layers to your teeth to make them stronger, bigger, and more solidly whole again.Your teeth will naturally weaken over time due to continuous use and even abuse (e.g., using your teeth as a tool to open things), overexposure to unhealthy diets high in sugar, poor oral hygiene from neglect of regular tooth brushing and mouth cleaning, etc.—resulting in all-too-common tooth decay, cavities, gum diseases, and other dental problems.If you fail to take care of the teeth you have now, you’re going have to spend thousands of dollars and up for expensive dental works later down the road. On the other hand, if you’re one of the few who takes up the practice of manually performing tooth remineralization as soon as possible—you can restore your teeth back to its healthy natural state and keep them for life.Here’s what you will discover inside “Tooth Regrowth”:The NASA-developed toothpaste used by astronauts to remineralize teeth.The oldest medicinal system in the world to restore your pearly whites.The connective-tissue acid to fight periodontitis and reverse receding gums....and that’s simply scratching the surface of tooth remineralization.Don’t let your teeth deteriorate to the point where it’s too late to fix the problem that you could have prevented or fixed yourself. Pick up “Tooth Regrowth” now to remineralize your teeth and reclaim a healthy shiny smile that you can be proud of.

    Nearly two decades after it closed, the South Carolina State Hospital continues to hold a palpable mystique in Columbia and throughout the state. Founded in 1821 as the South Carolina Lunatic Asylum, it housed, fed, and treated thousands of patients incapable of surviving on their own. The patient population in 1961 eclipsed 6,600, well above its listed capacity of 4,823, despite an operating budget that ranked forty-fifth out of the forty-eight states with such large public hospitals. By the mid-1990s, the patient population had fallen under 700, and the hospital had become a symbol of captivity, horror, and chaos. Author William Buchheit details this history through the words and interviews of those who worked on the iconic campus.
