Book Description
Have you ever stopped to consider Who, exactly, is in your Orbit? Your Orbit is your personal and professional network. It's the foundation for all you do. If you've ever been in a personal or business crisis, you know that PEOPLE MATTER. The people in your orbit will travel with you to the next level in life, shaping your world, adding to it, and if they're not the right people, detracting from it. In this fast paced technology driven universe, we rarely stop to consider who we are interacting with, developing relationships with, and communicating to. But it's this one factor that will determine how successful you can be. Now, and in the next decade, it's your relationships - that will make the difference. Who's in Your Orbit: People Matter! Is a book about how to get more value from your relationships and how to deliver more value to the people you know.

Pucher (Founder of Isis Papyrus) created VIPorbit Software International Inc. with the focus on bringing professional level software for relationship management to the mobile market. The authors bring to life the power of personal, mobile driven connections, versus the Internet cloud.

Are you memorable? Who's in Your Orbit will show you how the use of state-of-the-art technology can make a huge difference in your relationships, taking you to that next level.

Out of Orbit
Author: Chris Jones
Publisher: House of Anansi

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 317
Book Description
In February 2003, American astronauts Donald Pettit and Kenneth Bowersox and Russian flight engineer Nikolai Budarin were on a routine fourteen-week mission maintaining the International Space Station. But then the space shuttle Columbia exploded far beneath them. With the launch program suspended indefinitely, these astronauts had suddenly lost their ride back to earth. Out of Orbit chronicles the efforts of the beleaguered mission controls in Houston and Moscow as they worked frantically against the clock, ultimately settling on a plan that felt, at best, like a long shot. Latched to the side of the space station was a Russian-built Soyuz TMA-1 capsule, the rocket equivalent of a 1976 Gremlin. Despite the inherent danger, the Soyuz became the only hope to return Bowersox, Budarin, and Pettit home. Their harrowing journey back to earth is a powerful reminder that space travel remains an incredibly dangerous pursuit.

To Orbit and Back Again
Author: Davide Sivolella
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461409837
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 523
Book Description
The Space Shuttle has been the dominant machine in the U.S. space program for thirty years and has generated a great deal of interest among space enthusiasts and engineers. This book enables readers to understand its technical systems in greater depth than they have been able to do so before. The author describes the structures and systems of the Space Shuttle, and then follows a typical mission, explaining how the structures and systems were used in the launch, orbital operations and the return to Earth. Details of how anomalous events were dealt with on individual missions are also provided, as are the recollections of those who built and flew the Shuttle. Many photographs and technical drawings illustrate how the Space Shuttle functions, avoiding the use of complicated technical jargon. The book is divided into two sections: Part 1 describes each subsystem in a technical style, supported by diagrams, technical drawings, and photographs to enable a better understanding of the concepts. Part 2 examines different flight phases, from liftoff to landing. Technical material has been obtained from NASA as well as from other forums and specialists. Author Davide Sivolella is an aerospace engineer with a life-long interest in space and is ideally qualified to interpret technical manuals for a wider audience. This book provides comprehensive coverage of the topic including the evolution of given subsystems, reviewing the different configurations, and focusing on the solutions implemented.

Quitting her husband's house and moving back in with her horrible family, Lady Maccon becomes the scandal of the London season in the third book of the NYT bestselling Parasol Protectorate series. Queen Victoria dismisses her from the Shadow Council, and the only person who can explain anything, Lord Akeldama, unexpectedly leaves town. To top it all off, Alexia is attacked by homicidal mechanical ladybugs, indicating, as only ladybugs can, the fact that all of London's vampires are now very much interested in seeing Alexia quite thoroughly dead. While Lord Maccon elects to get progressively more inebriated and Professor Lyall desperately tries to hold the Woolsey werewolf pack together, Alexia flees England for Italy in search of the mysterious Templars. Only they know enough about the preternatural to explain her increasingly inconvenient condition, but they may be worse than the vampires -- and they're armed with pesto. Blameless is the third book of the Parasol Protectorate series: a comedy of manners set in Victorian London, full of werewolves, vampires, dirigibles, and tea-drinking.

Two years ago, on the same day but miles apart, Finn Darby lost two of the most important people in his life: his wife Lorena, struck by lightning on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, and his abusive, alcoholic grandfather, Tom Darby, creator of the long-running newspaper comic strip Toy Shop. Against his grandfather’s dying wish, Finn has resurrected Toy Shop, adding new characters, and the strip is more popular than ever, bringing in fan letters, merchandising deals, and talk of TV specials. Finn has even started dating again. When a terrorist attack decimates Atlanta, killing half a million souls, Finn begins blurting things in a strange voice beyond his control. The voice says things only his grandfather could know. Countless other residents of Atlanta are suffering a similar bizarre affliction. Is it mass hysteria, or have the dead returned to possess the living? Finn soon realizes he has a hitcher within his skin... his grandfather. And Grandpa isn’t terribly happy about the changes Finn has been making to Toy Shop. Together with a pair of possessed friends, an aging rock star, and a waitress, Finn races against time to find a way to send the dead back to Deadland... or die trying!

Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 500
Book Description
For centuries, a journey to space has been a shared dream of millions around the world. We have patiently, and impatiently, anticipated Sunday afternoon drives down celestial freeways. Yet, since 1961 when human space travel began, fewer than 560 professional astronauts, cosmonauts, taikonauts and a-half dozen millionaires have seen Earth from a vantage point in space. Given so few orbiting travelers, what made so many ordinary people think they had the slightest chance to fulfill their dream? Because for decades, visionaries, government officials, space companies, and the media told us our ticket to ride was just a rocket away. All we had to do was "keep the dream alive." With so much optimism, shouldn't we all be there by now? See You In Orbit? Our Dream of Spaceflight will be the first non-fiction book to take a historical, personal, irreverent, and often-humorous look at the promises, expectations, principal personalities, and milestones regarding the goal and dream we have to fly in space.

Balancing Your Orbit
Author: Kathy Kerston
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595477178
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 74
Book Description
Astrologer Kathy Kerston presents two profound principles in Balancing Your Orbit: the planets beam energies to Earth, and we can respond positively or negatively to these energies. Starting with the belief that your birth chart is a script you wrote, Kerston believes your chart's scenarios describe what you can choose to experience. By exercising free will, you can direct your life-but only when you choose to take on that responsibility. Planetary energy has a profound affect on our lives and is often based on our programmed belief systems. By starting with your charts and entering the realm of imagination, you can choose to draw to yourself into the positive energy of any planet. In a playful but powerful way, Kerston describes each known planets' personality using Greek mythological profiles. These profiles explain how to take control of your life by changing your belief systems. "The universe is holding all that you have wished for in escrow for you," said Abraham through Ester Hicks (Law of Attraction). It's yours to claim. You will come to view the planets as your personal assistants, sending you positive things and circumstances. You'll refer to this practical, enjoyable book time and again to supplement your astrological studies.
