Dealing with such observations requires the careful application of probability and statistics. ![]() From Cash to Crypto: A Beginner's Guide to Safely Buying, Storing & Using Bitcoin and Crypto - Without the Confusion by Lukas Wiesflecker English | March 4, 2025 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0DZ9R78L3 | 90 pages | EPUB | 2.30 Mb Step-by-Step Guide to Entering the Crypto World-Safely & Confidently ![]() Frightful Folklore of North America: Illustrated Folk Horror from Greenland to the Panama Canal by Mike Bass English | September 3, 2024 | ISBN: 1786788721, 9781786789112 | True EPUB | 256 pages | 41.4 MB Read 100+ terrifying North American legends of monsters, cryptids, and more in this folk horror anthology illustrated with 75 stunning linocut-style artworks! ![]() Friends and Enemies in Penn's Woods: Indians, Colonists, and the Racial Construction of Pennsylvania By William A. Pencak, Daniel K. Richter 2004 | 336 Pages | ISBN: 0271023848 | PDF | 2 MB Two powerfully contradictory images dominate historical memory when we think of Native Americans and colonists in early Pennsylvania. To one side is William Penn?'s legendary treaty with the Lenape at Shackamaxon in 1682, enshrined in Edward Hicks?'s allegories of the "Peaceable Kingdom." To the other is the Paxton Boys?' cold-blooded slaughter of twenty Conestoga men, women, and children in 1763. How relations between Pennsylvanians and their Native neighbors deteriorated, in only 80 years, from the idealism of Shackamaxon to the bloodthirstiness of Conestoga is the central theme of Friends and Enemies in Penn?'s Woods. William Pencak and Daniel Richter have assembled some of the most talented young historians working in the field today. Their approaches and subject matter vary greatly, but all concentrate less on the mundane details of how Euro- and Indian Pennsylvanians negotiated and fought than on how people constructed and reconstructed their cultures in dialogue with others. Taken together, the essays trace the collapse of whatever potential may have existed for a Pennsylvania shared by Indians and Europeans. What remained was a racialized definition that left no room for Native people, except in reassuring memories of the justice of the Founder. Pennsylvania came to be a landscape utterly dominated by Euro-Americans, who managed to turn the region?'s history not only into a story solely about themselves but a morality tale about their best (William Penn) and worst (Paxton Boys) sides. The construction of Pennsylvania on Native ground was also the construction of a racial order for the new nation. Friends and Enemies in Penn?'s Woods will find a broad audience among scholars of early American history, Native American history, and race relations. ![]() Simone Knox, "Friends: A Reading of the Sitcom" English | ISBN: 3030254283 | 2019 | 315 pages | MOBI | 5 MB This book offers a long overdue, extensive study of one of the most beloved television shows: Friends. Why has this sitcom become the seminal success that it is? And how does it continue to engage viewers around the world a quarter century after its first broadcast? Featuring original interviews with key creative personnel (including co-creator Marta Kauffman and executive producer Kevin S. Bright), the book provides answers by identifying a strategy of intimacy that informs Friends' use of humour, performance, style and set design. The authors provide fascinating analyses of some of the most well-remembered scenes-the one where Ross can't get his leather pants back on, and Ross and Rachel's break-up, to name just a couple-and reflect on how and why A-list guest performances sometimes fell short of the standards set by the ensemble cast. Also considered are the iconic look of Monica's apartment as well as the programme's much discussed politics of representation and the critical backlash it has received in recent years.
