Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - I knew from a young age that I wanted to make a lot of money, and a career in Finance seemed to be the best track to that end. As I grew older, and further exposed to this field through friends, family, and the media, I learned more, and became even more intrigued and focused. By high school graduation I knew where my passions lay, and a future on The Street became my dream. But few worthwhile accomplishments in life come easily, and, likewise, my path was fraught with obstacles and frustrations. I learned a lot through this process, and present here my trials, tribulations, and lessons learned which hopefully will benefit those who come after me with similar goals and aspirations. The process of procuring a position on The Street is no picnic, and my personal challenges, defeats, and successes are a story worth telling. Equally so, my experience once hired, and the knowledge gained as a newbie in a Financial firm, have a value all their own. I hope to pass along my hard-knocks to the next generation of Wall Streeters. I wish I had such advice when I was at the starting line.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A comprehensive description of the nature of light, electricity and gravity is provided in terms of quantum wave mechanics. Detailed models include the photon as a travelling electromagnetic wave and the electron as a closed loop standing wave formed by a confined photon. Electrons are of toroidal geometry generated by a spinning Hopf link as a result of an imbalance of electrostatic and magnetostatic energy. Electric charge is a manifestation of a slight precession characterized by the fine structure constant. The physical vacuum as a polarizable medium enables wave propagation and appears ultimately to be quantized at the Planck scale. Standing wave transformations for objects in motion are reviewed and Lorentz Doppler effects compared. The mechanism for generation of de Broglie matter waves for objects in motion is depicted including the inverse effect of induced motion of an object by synthesis of contracted moving standing waves. Gravity is viewed as a frequency synchronization interaction between coupled mass oscillators. The acceleration of gravity is described by a spectral energy density gradient. Gravitons are shown to be phase conjugate photons. The metric of curved spacetime corresponds to the electromagnetic wave front interference node metric. Hence, the gravitational field becomes quantized.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Romantic relationships develop in strange and mysterious ways. How amazing it would be to have a birds-eye (first-hand) view of such in one's parents! That is exactly what I was privileged to experience through the love letters between my Mom and Dad before (and leading up to) their marriage. Reading and vicariously experiencing the personal/intimate, heart/soul-felt communications between people is rare and telling, indeed. But I was fortunate enough to uncover these decades-old exchanges in a most unexpected fashion. And how curious I was! Where did we come from What was Darwin talking about Well, here it is, in all its glory and modesty, my parents' story in living color, warts and wrinkles included. I hereby present these unvarnished and uncensored narratives, from Dad to Mom, detailing a love affair in gestation which would lead to the marriage and family that became my story. A story worth telling, a story worth reading, lessons worth learning and living.…
