A while ago, we were employed to work in the Iranian desert for three months. We lived in hotels, progressing to self-catering, and so mixed our environments between work, domesticity, and social activities. During the day we experienced temperatures up to 60 degrees Celsius! But, conversely, we enjoyed the legendary Iranian hospitality of swimming, tennis, parties, and dining out, in our leisure time.

In this book, we show you the real words, phrases, specific vocabulary, and grammar that we needed on a day-to-day basis while we lived there.

This book has not been prepared with any academic rigour, as neither of us are qualified in linguistics, but both of us genuinely believe that its shortcomings will be overcome by the fact that it will be VERY USEFUL to you.

This book contains what you will really need! No more, and no less. We show you what you need to know, and teach you how, why, and when to say it. Put it like this: by the time we left Iran, we could speak Farsi quite adequately!

Girt. No word could better capture the essence of Australia . . .
In this hilarious history, David Hunt reveals the truth of Australia's past, from megafauna to Macquarie - the cock-ups and curiosities, the forgotten eccentrics and Eureka moments that have made us who we are.

Girt introduces forgotten heroes like Mary McLoghlin, transported for the crime of 'felony of sock', and Trim the cat, who beat a French monkey to become the first animal to circumnavigate Australia. It recounts the misfortunes of the escaped Irish convicts who set out to walk from Sydney to China, guided only by a hand-drawn paper compass, and explains the role of the coconut in Australia's only military coup.

Our nation's beginnings are steeped in the strange, the ridiculous and the frankly bizarre. Girt proudly reclaims these stories for all of us.

Not to read it would be un-Australian.

'A sneaky, sometimes shocking peek under the dirty rug of Australian history.' John Birmingham

'Girt ... cuts an irreverent swath through the facts, fools, fantasies and frauds that made this country what it is today, hoisting sacred cows on their own petards and otherwise sawing the legs off Lady Macquarie's chair. I was transported.' Shane Maloney, The Age Best Books of 2013

'Girt is a ripping read... a humorous history that is accessible enough to share with the eight-year-old. Hunt's writing interests span comedy, politics and history, a happy triumvirate when your subject is Australia.' Stephen Romei, The Australian

At 2am., everything seems like a good idea...

In 2008 the Pope came to Sydney, petrol prices soared and Australia proudly became the fattest nation on earth. Big Brother got the chop, Sam Newman mauled a mannequin and the Logies were as wonderfully bad as ever. Thank goodness for Catherine Deveny. Always ready with a subversive aside or a provocative question, each week in the Age she brings her passionate, irreverent wit to bear on the big issues of the day.

Say When collects Deveny's funniest, sharpest and most outrageous columns from the past year - and some unpublished work, as well. Whether taking on God, climate change or Kerri-Anne Kennerley, she is sure to leave you begging for more.

Weve won the battle of the fatties. Australia is now officially, according to some bunch of folk with clipboards in one hand and flab pinchers in the other, the worlds fattest nation. Go, you good thing! Get stuck into those pies! Potato cakes? Ill have three. One for mum, one for dad and one for the country. Lets use our newfound status as the Tubby Country as a tourist pitch to attract chubby chasers and fat fetishists. Where the bloody hell am I? Down the shops, buying dim sims. Catherine Deveny

TIME IN POWERS OF TEN: NATURAL PHENOMENA & THEIR TIMESCALES

# data[].attributes.description
With a Foreword by Steven WeinbergIn this richly illustrated book, Nobel Laureate Gerard 't Hooft and Theoretical Physicist Stefan Vandoren describe the enormous diversity of natural phenomena that take place at different time scales.In the tradition of the bestseller Powers of Ten, the authors zoom in and out in time, each step with a factor of ten. Starting from one second, time scales are enlarged until processes are reached that take much longer than the age of the universe. After the largest possible eternities, the reader is treated to the shortest and fastest phenomena known. Then the authors increase with powers of ten, until again the second is reached at the end of the book.At each time scale, interesting natural phenomena occur, spread over all scientific disciplines: orbital and rotation periods of planets and stars, decay times of elementary particles and atoms, biological rhythms and evolution processes, but also the different geological time scales. remove

Apache Solr is an open source search platform built on a Java library called Lucene. It serves as a search platform for many websites, as it has the capability of indexing and searching multiple websites to fetch desired results. We begin with a brief introduction of analyzers and tokenizers to understand the challenges associated with implementing large-scale indexing and multilingual search functionality. We then move on to working with custom queries and understanding how filters work internally. While doing so, we also create our own query language or Solr plugin that does proximity searches. Furthermore, we discuss how Solr can be used for real-time analytics and tackle problems faced during its implementation in e-commerce search. We then dive deep into the spatial features such as indexing strategies and search/filtering strategies for a spatial search. We also do an in-depth analysis of problems faced in an ad serving platform and how Solr can be used to solve these problems.
