  • For the Thrill of It: Leopold, Loeb, and the Murder That Shocked Jazz Age
    For the Thrill of It Leopold, Loeb, and the Murder That Shocked Chicago Simon Baatz The problem I thus pose is…what type of man shall be bred, shall be willed, for being higher in value…. This higher type has appeared often—but as a fortunate accident, as an exception, never as something willed…. Success in individual cases is constantly encountered in the most widely different places and cultures: here we really do find a higher type that is, in relation to mankind as a whole, a kind of superman. Such fortunate accidents of great success have always been possible and will perhaps always be possible. Friedrich Nietzsche, The Antichrist, Sections 3, 4 “I’m reminded of a little article you wrote, ‘On Crime,’ or something like that, I forget the exact title. I had the pleasure of reading it a couple of months ago in the Periodical.” “My article? In the Periodical Review?” Raskolnikov asked in surprise…. Raskolnikov really hadn’t known anything about it…. “That’s right. And you maintain that the act of carrying out a crime is always accompanied by illness. Very, very original, but personally that wasn’t the part of your article that really interested me. There was a certain idea slipped in at the end, unfortunately you only hint at it, and unclearly…. In short, it contains, if you recall, a certain reference to the notion that there may be certain kinds of people in the world who can…I mean not that they are able, but that they are endowed with the right to commit all sorts of crimes and excesses, and the law, as it were, was not written for them.

    Praise for CORMAC McCARTHY “McCarthy is a writer to be read, to be admired, and quite honestly—envied.” —Ralph Ellison “McCarthy is a born narrator, and his writing has, line by line, the stab of actuality. He is here to stay.” —Robert Penn Warren “Mr. McCarthy has the best kind of Southern style, one that fuses risky eloquence, intricate rhythms and dead-to-rights accuracy.” —The New York Times “Cormac McCarthy is a Southerner, a born storyteller, a writer of natural, impeccable dialogue, a literary child of Faulkner … capable of black, reasonable comedy at the heart of his tragedy.” —New Republic “[McCarthy’s] lyrical prose never sacrices necessary economies [and his] sense of the tragic is almost unerring.” —Times Literary Supplement (London) The author wishes to express his gratitude to The American Academy of Arts and Letters, The Rockefeller Foundation, and The John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation. Dear friend now in the dusty clockless hours of the town when the streets lie black and steaming in the wake of the watertrucks and now when the drunk and the homeless have washed up in the lee of walls in alleys or abandoned lots and cats go forth highshouldered and lean in the grim perimeters about, now in these sootblacked brick or cobbled corridors where lightwire shadows make a gothic harp of cellar doors no soul shall walk save you. Old stone walls unplumbed by weathers, lodged in their striae fossil bones, limestone scarabs rucked in the oor of this once inland sea. Thin dark trees through yon iron palings where the dead keep their own small metropolis.

  • A1the Eye in Detail
    A. The Eye A1. Eye in detail EYE ANATOMY A guide to the many parts of the human eye and how they function. The ability to see is dependent on the actions of several structures in and around the eyeball. The graphic below lists many of the essential components of the eye's optical system. When you look at an object, light rays are reflected from the object to the cornea , which is where the miracle begins. The light rays are bent, refracted and focused by the cornea, lens , and vitreous . The lens' job is to make sure the rays come to a sharp focus on the retina . The resulting image on the retina is upside-down. Here at the retina, the light rays are converted to electrical impulses which are then transmitted through the optic nerve , to the brain, where the image is translated and perceived in an upright position! Think of the eye as a camera. A camera needs a lens and a film to produce an image. In the same way, the eyeball needs a lens (cornea, crystalline lens, vitreous) to refract, or focus the light and a film (retina) on which to focus the rays. If any one or more of these components is not functioning correctly, the result is a poor picture. The retina represents the film in our camera. It captures the image and sends it to the brain to be developed. The macula is the highly sensitive area of the retina. The macula is responsible for our critical focusing vision. It is the part of the retina most used.

Podává přehled o očních nemocech (např. katarakta, glaukom, nevědomost nebo infekce a záněty očí), dále se také zaměřuje na obecná témata, se kterými by měl být seznámen každý oční optik (např. refrakční vady – astigmatismus a presbyopie, brýle, čočky – typy a materiály a kontaktní čočky) ale i s problematikou týkající se dnešní doby (např. computer vision syndrome, suché oko). Informace z těchto okruhů mohou pomoci očnímu optikovi obohatit jeho znalosti a také zlepšit schopnost komunikace v anglickém jazyce se zákazníkem v oční optice.

    NEVER ASK THE EiND ! I lsi" BEL PAT~RSON ! I I NEW YORK 1933 THE LITERARY GUILD Copyright, 1933 By Isabel M. Paterson Published by William Morrow & Co. Printed in the U. S. A. TO ELISABETH SANXAY HOLDING FOR HER. LONG-SUFFERING SYMPATHY lVilliom, lend m.e 10UT hunting knife; This house is hollow to defend. My fathers led a dolorous tife: Never ask the end. From tf. ·Ltnnent from the Breton. ELINOR WYLIE CHAPTER I "HE'LL hate having me wished on him. You can say I had another engagement." Marta thought, if it were anyone but Pauline she would drive me mad. But she was always like that, and somehow one doesn't mind her moods and nerves. It's her voice, so light and quick and gay, no matter what she says it sounds rather amusing. Not a nagging voice, there's something witty in JUSt the tone of it. That hasn't changed. Like a breeze fluttering a curtain; most people's minds are shut-dead air. She was perfectly beautiful~ though I don't believe she knew it. Nattier painted the type over and over; I must find a Nattier for her; there should be one in the Louvre. The same delicate long nose and clove-pink mouth, that lift of the upper lip, and the unbroken line of her cheek and chin, drawn with one stroke. Her shoulders were perfect; I never saw a more beautiful body. Not even Alma. Except her hands and feet; Alma has such pretty bare feet. Keith was the only other person I ever knew who had smooth shapely feet like a child.

  • Quality Assurance Program Consists of Cont
    Quality Assurance Policy Continuing Education (CE) Accreditation Policy_ As set out in the Regulations1, the College of Opticians of Ontario’s (the College) Quality Assurance program consists of Continuing Education (CE) designed to p romote the continuing competence and continuing quality improvements of optician registrants. The Quality Assurance Committee (QAC) is responsible for administering the Quality Assurance (QA) Program and determining which CE activities achieve the objectives of the program. This policy outlines for CE providers the process and criteria by which the QAC will recognize CE as “accredited” activities. The QAC accredits CE solely for the purpose of ensuring that high quality CE is available in order to facilitate registrant engagement in the QA Program. Accreditation of CE does not indicate College endorsement of any products, services or companies associated with the accredited activity. Accreditation Process and Criteria The QAC will consider requests for CE accreditation in the following delivery formats: live presentations (e.g. seminars, lectures, workshops); live-broadcast presentations (e.g. webinar); and distance learning (e.g. internet, videos, print). From time to time, as it deems necessary, the QAC may consult qualified third party professionals to determine whether a CE activity meets the criteria below. CE providers that wish to change the delivery format of an accredited CE activity (e.g. from live presentation to distance learning) must resubmit the course material to the QAC for approval. The following process and criteria apply to the accreditation of CE activities in all delivery formats: 1. The activity must be an organized, evidence-based program that will contribute to the advancement of professional competency and scientific knowledge in the practice of opticianry, and be designed to reflect the educational needs of registrants.
