Winning a High-speed, Close-distance Gunfight


Free Download Lou Chiodo, "Winning a High-speed, Close-distance Gunfight"
English | ISBN: 1581606915 | 2009 | 150 pages | PDF | 1302 KB
A firearms training program geared for the high-speed, close-distance conditions of a real gunfight needs to be about fighting, not just shooting. Former U.S. Marine and California Highway Patrol veteran Lou Chiodo recognizes this fact, and Winning a High-Speed, Close-Distance Gunfight outlines the fundamentals of his reality-based program – one that enjoys one of the highest police officer survival ratings in the country. During his police service, Chiodo realized that standard firearm qualification courses do not prepare officers to face the high-stress environment that they experience in real gunfights – multiple-round, rapid-fire engagements at danger-close distances, often in low light. He studied survival stress and confrontation dynamics from all angles and used his findings to develop the training methods outlined in this book. Through innovative ranges and drills that replicate the conditions of actual street engagements, along with a radical but surprisingly simple retooling of firearm qualification courses, Chiodo shows how you can achieve true combat accuracy when the bullets are flying for real. Whether you are a police officer, firearms instructor or armed citizen, Winning a High-Speed, Close-Distance Gunfight will help you evaluate your present program and adopt useful training methods to prepare for real-life armed confrontations. Read this valuable book and start training to fight, not just to shoot

English | December 28, 2008 | ASIN: B001U2MTAG | M4B@128 kbps | 12h 13m | 666.6 MB
Author and Narrator: Stephen M. R. Covey
From Stephen R. Covey’s eldest son comes a revolutionary new path towards productivity and satisfaction. Trust, says Stephen M.R. Covey, is the very basis of the new global economy, and he shows how trust-and the speed at which it is established with clients, employees and constituents-is the essential ingredient for any high-performance, successful organization.
For business leaders and public figures in any arena, The Speed of Trust offers an unprecedented and eminently practical look at exactly how trust functions in our every transaction and relationship-from the most personal to the broadest, most indirect interaction-and how to establish trust immediately so that you and your organization can forego the time-killing, bureaucratic check-and-balance processes so often deployed in lieu of actual trust.

Speed of Sound and Critical Flow


Free Download Speed of Sound and Critical Flow by Henry Foust
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 163 Pages | ISBN : 981975917X | 24.9 MB
This book focuses on two related topics in fluid mechanics, that is, speed of sound through various media and critical flow associated with gas-liquid flows. The first part of the book explores the speed of sound in liquids, gases, and solids. For gas flows, both real gas behavior and two-phase flow are reviewed; a thorough review is given of cubic equations of state. For media of solid, transverse and longitudinal waves are discussed and related back to earlier work on acoustics and gas dynamics. The second part of the book focuses on critical flow. Beginning with ideal, perfect gases, it goes into van der Waals and other equations of state. A general discussion of gas-liquid flows is subsequently given with necessary nomenclature consistent with the work of Wallis, and lastly goes on to explore critical flow for two-phase and binary mixtures through Henry and Fauske’s work and the Omega method by Leung.

English | ASIN: B0DB3JB1PZ | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~04:46:00 | 131 MB
Respected DEI expert Sara Taylor presents a down-to-earth guide on how to tackle unconscious biases and foster true equity in our rapidly changing world. Through relatable examples and practical strategies, listeners learn to deliberately slow down their thought processes and become aware of their filters in various situations. Taylor encourages listeners to question their own assumptions by asking, "Do I know that what I’m thinking is actually true?" and "Why might I be reacting this way?"
The book demonstrates the importance of a clear set of competencies, skills, and strategies for addressing unconscious bias. By developing a culturally competent mindset and using a shared, holistic language to discuss these issues, listeners gain the tools to understand, discuss, and implement change both at home and in the workplace. This approach avoids blame or shame, making it accessible and empowering for everyone.
The book’s insights extend beyond individuals; it demonstrates how organizations can scale up cultural competence to transform their structures and systems. With a strong sense of hope, listeners are empowered to make a difference, creating a more just and equitable world for all.
