Author: Azam Ahmed
Narrator: Sheldon Romero

A riveting true story of a mother who fought back against the drug cartels in Mexico, pursuing her own brand of justice to avenge the kidnapping and murder of her daughter-from a global investigative correspondent for The New York Times. Fear Is Just a Word begins on an international bridge between Mexico and the United States, as fifty-six-year-old Miriam Rodríguez stalks one of the men she believes was involved in the murder of her daughter Karen. He is her target number eleven, a member of the drug cartel that has terrorized and controlled what was once Miriam’s quiet hometown of San Fernando, Mexico, almost one hundred miles from the U.S. border. Having dyed her hair red as a disguise, Miriam watches, waits, and then orchestrates the arrest of this man, exacting her own version of justice. Woven into this deeply researched, moving account is the story of how cartels built their power in Mexico, escalated the use of violence, and kidnapped and murdered tens of thousands.

Data analytics-the science of applying data analysis to solve problems-affects every aspect of business. Moreover, the stakes have never been higher for analysts as the opportunities for data analysis have reached unprecedented levels. Yet the growing complexity of data tools and technology have left many wondering where to start. This course with Kevin Hartman establishes basic yet often ignored skills every successful analyst needs. Kevin covers three interdependent functional areas where analysts must build strength: data strategist, data technologist, and data designer. He examines how these three roles have been staffed over time and how the analyst’s role has undergone an evolution resulting in the need for people who can blend all three roles. He explains each role, its purpose, and examines tools and techniques that enable its function. He also explores the mindset of the successful analyst: one characterized by curiosity, optimism, and a healthy dose of boldness.

Word Order and Parameter Change in Romanian A Comparative Romance Perspective


Free Download Alexandru Nicolae, "Word Order and Parameter Change in Romanian: A Comparative Romance Perspective "
English | ISBN: 0198807368 | 2019 | 288 pages | PDF | 3 MB
The book provides a comprehensive description and in-depth analysis of the major word order changes that took place in the clausal and the nominal domains in the transition from old to modern Romanian. The data are set in a comparative Romance perspective, with attention also paid to the impact of the Balkan Sprachbund and the influence of Old Church Slavonic. Alexandru Nicolae’s analysis is based on a qualitative and quantitative examination of a large number of phenomena in a representative corpus of old Romanian texts. Some of these phenomena, such as scrambling, interpolation, discontinuous constituents, and variation in the position and linearization of DP-internal adjectival modifiers, are found across Romance, while others, such as the low position for pronominal cliticization, are relatively rare. Still others are specific to old and modern Romanian, such as the proclitic and enclitic realization of the same pronominal clitic, the low definite article, and the adjectival article construction.
