Paul F. Bradshaw, "Daily Prayer in the Early Church: A Study of the Origin and Early Development of the Divine Office"
English | 2008 | ISBN: 1606081055 | PDF | pages: 208 | 11.6 mb
In liturgical study, and especially in English liturgical study, the subject of the daily office has always been something of the poor relation' writes the author in his preface. This volume aims to do something to fill that gap. It begins with a detailed examination of the Jewish background and of the practice of daily prayer in the first three centuries of the Church, and goes on to trace the evolution of the divine office in both its monastic and secular forms in East and West down to the time of St. Benedict. Intended as a replacement for The Influence of the Synagogue upon the Divine Office by C. W. Dugmore (Alcuin Club Collection No. 45), it not only incorporates the results of recent research by continental scholars and others but also challenges traditional assumptions at a number of important points, offering a fresh interpretation of the evidence.

Crowds, Power, and Transformation in Cinema By Lesley Brill
2006 | 296 Pages | ISBN: 0814332757 | PDF | 4 MB
From Intolerance to The Silence of the Lambs, motion pictures show crowds and power in complex, usually antagonistic, relationships. Key to understanding this opposition is an intrinsic capability of the cinema: transformation. Making unprecedented use of Elias Canetti's Crowds and Power, Lesley Brill explores crowds, power, and transformation throughout film history. The formation of crowds together with crowd symbols and representations of power create complex, unifying structures in two early masterpieces, The Battleship Potemkin and Intolerance. In Throne of Blood, power-seekers become increasingly isolated, while the crowd of the dead seduces and overwhelms the living. The conflict between crowds and power in Citizen Kane takes place both within the protagonist and between him and the people he tries to master. North by Northwest, Killer of Sheep, and The Silence of the Lambs are rich in hunting and predation and show the crowd as a pack; transformation-true, false, and failed-is the key to both attack and escape. Brill's study provides original insights into canonical movies and shows anew the central importance of transformation in film. Film theorists, critics, and historians will value this fresh and intriguing approach to film classics, which also has much to say about cinema itself and its unique relationship to mass audiences.

English | February 3, 2021 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B08VWY9SV5 | 92 pages | EPUB | 12 Mb
Microsoft Azure, commonly referred to as Azureis a cloud computing service created by Microsoft for building, testing, deploying, and managing applications and services through Microsoft-managed data centers. It provides software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and infrastructure as a service (IaaS) and supports many different programming languages, tools, and frameworks, including both Microsoft-specific and third-party software and systems. The major benefit of a remote desktop connection is being able to connect to your data from anywhere in the world. Your data is in one place that is easy to see and you no longer have to have software installed on your own computer.Azure is one of the best virtual computers and networks providers for remote desktop (RDP) connections. When you create Azure account, you pay as you go. You purchase Azure services with pay-as-you-go pricing. You pay only for what you use each month, with no upfront commitment, and cancel anytime. You must add your credit/debit card for billing to use pay as you go subscription.But I was looking for totally free subscription where I don't need to add my credit card for billing. I found there are two possible options for that:1) A sandbox gives you access to Azure resources. Your Azure subscription will not be charged. The sandbox may only be used to complete training on Microsoft Learn. Creating the Azure Virtual machines using sandbox which is learning subscription, you can connect to the VM via RDP port but you cannot access to Internet through the Internet Explorer. 2) Alternatively Microsoft Azure provides a free $100 credit for students accounts registered through university emails (free student subscription for around one year). There is internet access in the VM machine under this type of subscription.Azure documentations is too deep and it is hard to be understand creating and managing virtual computers and networks in Auzre for remote access connection by any beginner.

English | March 3, 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B09TVR7TWT | 100 pages | EPUB | 0.18 Mb
Before I get to French, let me tell you a little story. My wife Marie and I come from France. Six months after I immigrated to North America, I used to work for a company that had suppliers in Baton Rouge. My English was not the best when I started the job, and I sounded very French! Worse, because of their strong accent, I understood less than half what the suppliers told me on the phone. Yet, essential bids and contracts depended on my ability to challenge them. I was terrified that my employer would fire me when they discovered I couldn't do the job. I was also ashamed to hear my bilingual cubicle neighbor speak perfect English and French.
