If attention is the new oil, Ben Smith's Traffic is the story of the time between the first gusher and the perceptible impact of climate change.
The curtain opens in Soho in the early 2000s, after the first dot-com crash but before Google, Apple, and Facebook exploded, when it seemed that New York City, rather than Silicon Valley, might become tech's center of gravity. There, within a few square blocks, Nick Denton's merry band of nihilists at his growing Gawker empire and Jonah Peretti's sunnier team at HuffPost and BuzzFeed were building the foundations of viral internet media. It was tech's age of innocence: The old establishment might have been discredited by the Iraq War, but digital news would empower the spread of truth. After all, didn't the progressive internet get Barack Obama elected?
Ben Smith, who would go on to earn a controversial reputation as BuzzFeed's editor in chief, was there to see it, and he chronicles it all with marvelous lucidity underscored by dark wit, spar

‘The Road meets Waiting for Godot: powerful, unforgettable, unique’ Melissa Harrison, author of At Hawthorn Time. Doggerland is a superbly gripping debut novel about loneliness and hope, nature and survival – set on an off-shore windfarm in the not-so-distant future. ‘His father’s breath had been loud in the small room. It had smelled smoky, or maybe more like dust. He had knotted and unknotted a strap on the bag he was holding – he must have been leaving to go out to the farm that day. ‘I’ll get out,’ he’d said. ‘I’ll come back for you, ok?’ The boy remembered that; had always remembered it. And, for a time, he’d believed it too.’ In the North Sea, far from what remains of the coastline, a wind farm stretches for thousands of acres.The Boy, who is no longer really a boy, and the Old Man, whose age is unguessable, are charged with its maintenance. They carry out their never-ending work, scoured by wind and salt, as the waves roll, dragging strange shoals of flotsam through the turbine fields. Land is only a memory.So too is the Boy’s father, who worked on the turbines before him, and disappeared. The boy has been sent by the Company to take his place, but the question of where he went and why is one for which the Old Man will give no answer.As his companion dredges the sea for lost things, the Boy sifts for the truth of his missing father. Until one day, from the limitless water, a plan for escape emerges…This beautifully crafted novel about loneliness and hope, nature and survival, is as haunting as it is compelling – a very special debut indeed. - LjudbokEngelska, 2019

AdvancED ActionScript 3.0 is a fresh look and new approach to utilizing valuable, structural techniques and methods that are commonly used in the field of rich interactive application development. With each method broken down into different strategized explanations, you'll find the approach most suitable for you. Whether it is an example you can utilize as-is, or one you can start with and develop further, you will have a glossary of definitions and organizational concepts at your fingertips. Object-oriented programming (OOP) and design patterns are not new to the field, but can often be overlooked in their value. They are, at times, not only overwhelming to learn, but difficult to put into practice. However, they are useful because they create a structure that can be broken down, rebuilt, and reused.

RUNNING AWARDS 2019 – TOP BOOK The story of Ben Smith, who decided to run 401 marathons in 401 days. People thought he was mad, until they heard his story, then they began to understand. Having endured years of bullying as a child, Ben tried to take his own life. In adulthood, Ben struggled to feel content with the life that was mapped out for him. But having found his passion in running, Ben sold his possessions, escaped his old life and set off on what seemed like an impossible mission – The 401 Challenge. During his 10,506.2-mile odyssey criss-crossing the UK, Ben ran in 309 different locations, accompanied by more than 13,500 people. He visited 101 schools, burned an estimated 2.4 million calories, wrecked his back and braved every extreme of the British weather, while raising £330,000 for charity, touching the lives of millions.

War has come to Havaen. After thousands of years, the return of Peresus’ evil to the world has brought with it chaos and destruction, as he seeks to finally complete his quest to conquer the realm. Already, the Aquaron Kingdom has fallen to his seemingly unstoppable might, and it appears only a matter of time before the rest of Havaen follows suit. As Peresus’ vast army begins to sweep across the land, obliterating all in their path, it is clear that even the power of Saberen, the Hero, will not be enough to defeat them. Only by fulfilling the ancient prophecy of the Hero – by uniting the three Sacred Keys and retrieving the Supremos from the Golden Realm – will Saberen have sufficient strength to overcome Peresus and the malevolent forces he commands. But one of the Sacred Keys is currently missing, its location unknown, and Peresus seeks to gain access to the Golden Realm too – to seize the Supremos for himself and use its limitless divine power to at last finish what he started all those millennia ago. To save Havaen, there can only be one outcome. Saberen must succeed, or the world will be plunged into darkness forever…
