    The first Bitcoin transaction traded 10,000 Bitcoins for a pair of large pizzas which cost $20 with a coupon. This put the initial value at about $.002. At that point, if you had invested $100 at that point, you could have procured 50,000 Bitcoins. At the current rate, those Bitcoins would be worth nearly $300 billion. If you are interested in making sure you don’t make the same mistake twice, then Bitcoin: A Comprehensive Beginner’s Guide to Learn and Understand Bitcoin Currency and Its Functions is the audiobook that you have been waiting for. If you are even remotely tuned into the conversation around the investment markets, then you likely keep hearing about Bitcoin everywhere you go. If you still aren’t sure what all the fuss is about, however, don’t worry, you aren’t alone. Less than 50 percent of all Americans can accurately describe what a Bitcoin is exactly, and less than 10 percent interact with cryptocurrency of any type on a regular basis. Essentially, Bitcoin is a digital transaction platform where users trade Bitcoins (small “b”) to one another for goods and services. While the extreme potential for profit outlined above is likely not going to happen again, that doesn’t mean that there still isn’t quite a bit of room to make a few bucks in the process. After all, between June and October of 2017, Bitcoin jumped in price more than $3,000 per unit. Here, you will learn not only how to make a profit from Bitcoin’s extreme level of volatility, but also how to put them into your pocket without spending any money on them directly through a process known as Bitcoin mining. When it comes to once in a lifetime investment opportunities, they don’t get much more serious than this. If you don’t reach out and take it now, you will be sure to regret it for the rest of your life. Don’t force yourself into a lifetime of financial misery, take control of your financial future!  You will learn: The complete history of ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dave Wright.

    Systems Requirement Analysis gives the professional systems engineer the tools to set up a proper and effective analysis of the resources, schedules and parts that will be needed in order to successfully undertake and complete any large, complex project. The text offers the reader the methodology for rationally breaking a large project down into a series of stepwise questions so that a schedule can be determined and a plan can be established for what needs to be procured, how it should be obtained, and what the likely costs in dollars, manpower and equipment will be in order to complete the project at hand. Systems Requirement Analysis is compatible with the full range of engineering management tools now popularly used, from project management to competitive engineering to Six Sigma, and will ensure that a project gets off to a good start before it's too late to make critical planning changes. The book can be used for either self-instruction or in the classroom, offering a wealth of detail about the advantages of requirements analysis to the individual reader or the student group.* Author is the recognized authority on the subject of Systems Engineering, and was a founding member of the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE)* Defines an engineering system, and how it must be broken down into a series of process steps, beginning with a definition of the problems to be solved* Complete overview of the basic principles involved in setting up a systems requirements analysis program, including how to set up the initial specifications that define the problems and parameters of an engineering program* Covers various analytical approaches to systems requirements including: structural and functional analysis, budget calculations, and risk analysis

    Liner Notes: Felt Hammer Improvisations, Vol. 1 Music by Paul Astin (piano) and Peyman Hedarian (santur) Today I flew in from Greece to London. As we taxied to a standstill the musics on the inflight stereo were well-known songs by the famous Rebetiko composer Vassilis Tsitsanis. Delightfully attractive music, enough to lift the heart after a tiring journey. But problematic. It was played on a piano. The piano plays on tempered scales. On a piano you cannot play the microtonal intervals that originally sat at the heart of Tsitsanis' music. Myself, I play the diminutive Greek baglama, and my instrument (with tempered-scale frets) has exactly the same problem. This tension between the microtonal intervals of Anatolian music and the do-re-mi of the Western scales is the salt and pepper of Rebetiko. It happens that Peyman Heydarian and Paul Astin are good friends of mine. We share a fascination with modal music, and it is the research and practice of Greek Rebetiko that originally brought us together. So when I arrived home in the early hours with a head full of microtonal questions (I was reading al-Farabi and Safi al-Din al-Urmawi and their reworkings of the Pythagorean scale en route) it was a shock both delirious and delicious to find the 18 files of this improvisatory adventure sitting in my in-box. Not Rebetiko, not Anatolian, not Western, rather something new. Recorded in Los Angeles. Two musicians - an American and an Iranian. That in itself symbolic in our troubled times. But doubly symbolic in the meeting of their two musical cultures. Actually, no, it is more than that. The musical cultures of these two men extend through time and across spaces to a diversity of inspiration. My idea of heaven includes two special corners - Astin pumping out the angular rhythms of black bebop when he played Thelonious Monk tunes on a grand piano that I procured for him when we met in Greece... and Heydarian when we sit in a corner of a London venue on a dark November evening and rattle through the pulsing rhythms of Irish reels and jigs on both fiddle and santur. There is a sympathetic rapport between the musicians, both dynamically and rhythmically. Heydarian plays the 9-bridge (salari) and 11-bridge (baziar) santur, tuned closely to the Western keys of F and D respectively, while Astin plays a Yamaha C7 acoustic grand piano. Many of the tracks stay within the parameters of the santurs' tunings, though a few move beyond these confines, resulting in a mix of tonal and atonal improvisations. Astin, having a jazz background, uses bass tones such as the fa, creating a harmonic framework with a raised 11th (the Lydian scale). Heydarian is not generally put out by such explorations, which differ sharply from traditional Persian or maqam (modal) music. In addition to performing, Heydarian develops computer algorithms to identify musical modes in recorded music. Not surprisingly, many of his melodic ideas blend phrases from Persian, Kurdish, Greek, and Celtic songs. To preserve the integrity of this session, the pieces are presented in the order in which they were recorded. No tracks have been deleted and there were no second takes. This is the complete session. Towards the end of the recording, Astin reaches inside the piano, using his hands to strum, dampen, and strike the strings, while Heydarian uses the tail of his hammer and also plays sequences in the untuned fourth region of the Santur. In addition, Heydarian introduces novel tunings on his instrument. This collaboration is a daring step. The music made by our two musicians is not pre-notated. It is improvised. It is dangerous. It is a conversation between musical languages in which commonalities and differences are explored - sometimes tentatively, sometimes boldly - and a discourse is produced in which you and I can share. While the musicians possess a deep understanding of their unique genres, together they create something quite unlike what one usually hears from the santur or piano. Pythagoras and Euclid theorised their scales on the single string of a monochord. The ratios that they established were conceived as a harmony of the spheres, the elements, the humours and all things divine and mundane. The simple monochord then took a notion to elaborate itself. One string became two, and then four, and eventually multiplied to the point that gave us the santur in the East and the piano in the West. An astonishing world of art music was created through hitting these strings with small felt hammers. And that is the world that is explored in this collection of tunes.
