New York in Color presents the best color photography of New York over the last century. From its iconic landmarks like Times Square and Coney Island to the visual poetry of its streets and skyline, New York presents an ever-changing visual collage best seen in color. Here, neon lights define the spirit of the night, a young Bob Dylan lingers in the snows of Greenwich Village, subway trains are rolling murals, and New Yorkers of every era become dramatic actors on the world's greatest stage. Presenting workmuch of it unknownby major photographers, including such masters as Andr� Kert�sz, William Klein, Helen Levitt, and Joel Meyerowitz, New York in Color is destined to be a classic photographic survey of the world's most visually vibrant city. Praise for New York in Color : "Even in black-and-white, New York's colors come through. They do so more vividly in New York in Color , a stunning, color-only anthology." New York Times "Shamis . . . is to be praised not only for his selections but also for the fine sequencingwe see a picture of Coney Island circa 1902, for instance, right before another circa 1956that adds to our appreciation of the individual images." William Meyers, Wall Street Journal "The two hundred images represent a visual conversation about New York, one that is inflected with everything from soft, pastel hues to jolting reds and yellows. There is grit and grace, lightness and laughter. And, yes, tragedya selection of images near the end is devoted to the World Trade Center." New York Times Lens Blog "Offer[s] a rare glimpse of colorful city life. . . . Flipping through the book shows that New York City life was never gray" New York Post "A fantastic collection and the perfect gift book for anyone who loves the city or fine photography." Connecticut Post "There's no shortage of iconic black-and-white New York images. What you may be less familiar with, however, is the city's rich history of color photography. This history is the subject of curator Bob Shamis's stunning new coffee-table book, New York in Color , which is filled with some two hundred vibrant photos from the past hundred years." PureWow.com, The European Car to Car Communication Consortium in relation with the American Vehicle Safety Communication project has been playing a key role in the development of the concepts and technologies which are now at the origin of the standardization activities and research projects (GST, PREVENT, SAFESPOT, CVIS) being introduced. Many safety applications (some of them being summarized here) will use this standard infrastructure for contributing to a safer road environment.Along the ISO OSI reference model the authors describe medium access control, routing in WAVE/DSRC (Dedicated Short Range Communications), 802.11p, and accompanying standards based on the communication architecture defined by the Car-2-Car Communication Consortium and the National Vehicle Infrastructure Integration Consortium (VIIC), as within the Federal ITS Program (RITA). Future automotive applications such as cooperative driving manoeuvres utilizing car-2-X (or vehicle-2-x) communication between on-board units and road-side units are introduced and described en detail. Furthermore, a novel simulation approach combining current approaches for traffic and network simulations is introduced as a method for validating the automotive applications., The European Car-to-Car Communication Consortium in relation with the American Vehicle Safety Communication project has been playing a key role in the development of the concepts and technologies which are now at the origin of the standardization activities and research projects (PREVENT, SAFESPOT, CVIS) being introduced.

Furthermore, this book introduces and describes future automotive applications such as cooperative driving utilizing such car-2-X (or vehicle-2-x) communication between vehicles and road infrastructure. Validation of these novel applications is a must before market introduction. Therefore this book introduces comprehensive simulation environment combining existing approaches for application, traffic and network simulation., Universal vehicular communication promises many improvements in terms of ac- dent avoidance and mitigation, better utilization of roads and resources such as time and fuel, and new opportunities for infotainment applications. However, before widespread acceptance, vehicular communication must meet challenges comparable to the trouble and disbelief that accompanied the introduction of traf c lights back then. The rst traf c light was installed in 1868 in London to signal railway, but only later, in 1912, was invented the rst red-green electric traf c light. And roughly 50 years after the rst traf c light, in 1920, the rst four-way traf c signal comparable to our today s traf c lights was introduced. The introduction of traf c signals was necessary after automobiles soon became prevalent once the rst car in history, actually a wooden motorcycle, was constructed in 1885. Soon, the scene became complicated, requiring the introduction of the right-of-way philosophy and later on the very rst traf c light. In the same way the traf c light was a necessary mean to regulate the beginning of the automotive life and to protect drivers, passengers, as well as pedestrians and other inhabitants of the road infrastructure, vehicular communication is necessary to accommodate the further growth of traf c volume and to signi cantly reduce the number of accidents.", Using the ISO OSI reference model, the authors describe medium access control, routing in WAVE/DSRC, 802.11p, and accompanying standards based on the communication architecture defined by the Car-2-Car Communication Consortium and the National Vehicle Infrastructure Integration Consortium.

I'm Supposed to Protect You from All This is a book in which every woman will see herself and her mother, and how they glorify, vilify, distort, misunderstand, and, ultimately, if they are lucky, make their peace with the past and allow each other to become, imperfectly, themselves.Ethnic and tribal loyalties in Afghanistan provided the lethal cocktail for the violent conflict that engulfed the country following the collapse of the Soviet backed government in 1992.In this entertaining and incredibly informative book, Napier will teach you the essentials of...Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review) "In this new, groundbreaking textbook two leading Israeli and Palestinian negotiators and legal scholars join forces to provide an indispensable resource for any student or teacher of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.Showing how romantic lyricism arose as an engagement between the forces of reason and custom, Anne Janowitz examines the ways in which this Romantic dialectic infected the writings of political poets from Thomas Spence to William Morris.Now, Case argues, we're entering the Third Wave: a period in which entrepreneurs will vastly transform major "real world" sectors like health, education, transportation, energy, and food--and in the process change the way we live our daily lives.Dr. Godwin gives readers the tools and the framework to: " benefit from every relationship " handle conflict with grace, reason, and flexibility " change problem situations into positive encounters " reduce conflict situations " successfully deal with unreasonable people This valuable resource will help readers successfully live and work with others, know how to implement conflict resolution, negotiate problem areas, and create positive connections even when people disagree.With 38 lavishly illustrated articles and descriptions of the best new (as well as old) rose varieties designed for the sustainable rose garden, this is a must-have book for today's new generation of avid but environmentally conscious gardeners.REVIEWS ...a read that is very much recommended for the environmentally conscious rose lover.However, new approaches to decision-making and rationality and challenges to the traditional expected utility model make these two conceptions much more compatible.The closer the contact, the greater the potential for conflict.This means gardening that is consciously aware of the dangerous health and environmental risks posed by using traditional synthetic chemicals and pesticides, and that seeks to return to the principles of Mother Nature, while also growing low-maintenance plants that make fewer demands on environmental resources.The Queen of Flowers, the rose by Presidential declaration America's National Floral Emblem was initially left behind as green consciousness and the concept of sustainability took hold among the gardening public.
