A gorgeous, inimitable singer and songwriter, Nina Simone (1933-2003) changed the face of both music and race relations in America. She struck a chord with bluesy jazz ballads like "Put a Little Sugar in My Bowl" and powerful protest songs such as "Mississippi Goddam" and "To Be Young, Gifted, and Black," the anthem of the American Civil Rights movement. Coinciding with the re-release of her famous Philips Recordings, here are the reflections of the "High Priestess of Soul" on her own life.
Carnets Conciliaires de Mgr G'Rard Philips, Secr'taire Adjoint de La Commission Doctrinale: Texte N'Erlandais Avec Traduction Franaise Et Commentaires
Dans l'histoire du Concile Vatican II, le thologien belge (Louvain) Grard Philips (1899-1972) se montre un des acteurs principaux. En tant que secrtaire adjoint de la Commission doctrinale du Concile, il a jou un grand rle dans la rdaction de plusieurs documents importants de Vatican II (Lumen Gentium, Dei Verbum, Gaudium et Spes...). La prsente publication offre aux lecteurs une dition bilingue (texte originel nerlandais avec traduction franaise) des notes personnelles de Mgr Philips, avec dans les notes critiques un tas de prcisions historiques, de documents non publis, et fournie d'une index des personnes offrant une notice biographique concernant chaque auteur. Cette dition du Journal Philips, qui contient souvent des pages mouvantes, donne ainsi un aperu unique de l'histoire conciliaire vu par un 'insider'.

Simulated Annealing and Boltzmann Machines: A Stochastic Approach to Combinatorial Optimization and Neural Computing
Simulated Annealing and Boltzmann Machines A Stochastic Approach to Combinatorial Optimization and Neural Computing Emile Aarts, Philips Research Laboratories, Eindhoven, and Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands Jan Korst, Philips Research Laboratories, Eindhoven, The Netherlands Simulated annealing is a solution method in the field of combinatorial optimization based on an analogy with the physical process of annealing. The method is generally applicable, and can obtain solutions arbitrarily close to an optimum. However, finding high quality solutions can require large computational effort. The computational effort required can be greatly reduced by using the computational model of the Boltzmann machine. This is a neural network model which belongs to the class of connectionist models. It is characterized by massive parallelism and distributed representations. These features lead to a conceptually simple yet powerful model, which can be seen as an architectural blueprint...

How Radio Signals Work: All the Basics Plus Where to Find Out More by Jim Sinclair, ISBN 0070580588
Understand Today's Communications- No Technical Background Required.Radio waves poer not only radios, but TVs. They make our cell phoneswork. They enable the airplane we ride and the ships we sail to navigate in unfamiliar locales. Radio waves are even at the heart of our most powerful telescopes, permitting scientists their clearest look into deep space. Most of us use radio waves every single day -and most of us have very little idea of how they work. In a reader-friendly style requiring no technical or mathematical background, this concise and clearly-written book explains the basics of radio signaling. You'll learn how: Energy carries information.Messages are imprinted on energy.Signals move across space.Signals are detected and amplified.Electrons, watts, amps, volts, and other "mysterious beasties" owrk.If you're curious about the phenomena that make modern communications work...if you want a fascinating, across-the-board tour of the entire field of radio communications, including...
