In 2009, Republican Nevada state legislator Sharron Angle declared her candidacy against Democrat United States Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid - one of the most powerful men in the nation. Thus began a whirlwind year that would take Angle, a former teacher and housewife, from relative obscurity to becoming a leading voice in the surging TEA Party movement. Reid and the political establishment spent millions of dollars telling voters about their version of Sharron Angle. In Right Angle, youll meet the real Sharron Anglein her own words. Youll meet the concerned mother who ran for the local school board to help change homeschooling laws. Youll follow Sharron during her run against her own partys big government establishment to win a seat in the Nevada Legislature and throughout her subsequent ?ghts to preserve the Constitution.

Right angle weave is one of the most versatile beading stitches. Gidez shows you how to become a master of the stitch, with clear instructions accompanied by diagrams with easy-to-follow thread paths. Each chapters covers the basics of a single skill, followed by projects that put the new technique into practice.

Wise describes a stream of geometric group theory connecting many of the classically considered groups arising in combinatorial group theory with right-angled Artin groups. He writes for new or seasoned researchers who have completed at least an introductory course of geometric groups theory or even just hyperbolic groups, but says some comfort with graphs of groups would be helpful. His topics include non-positively curved cube complexes, virtual specialness of malnormal amalgams, finiteness properties of the dual cube complex, walls in cubical small-cancellation theory, and hyperbolicity and quasiconvexity detection.

Set in a snowy New England mill town, Right Angles is a comedy that centers around the matriarch of a Polish American family, Kasia Angielski. Kasia is deeply concerned about doing the right thing for the right reason within the moral and cultural parameters of her fellow Poles; she's also trying to understand the baffling customs of her new country. Join Kasia and her eccentric family and friends as she hosts the annual Wigilia, the traditional Polish Christmas Eve supper, when things go terribly wrong at one of the most reverent times of the year!

The right angle weave stitch is demystified in this beading handbook. After mastering the basics, crafters can create their own beautiful jewelry with 30 projects that include a trendsetting garnet and carnelian necklace, a bead lace jabot, and a sapphire crystal bracelet. All projects include easy-to-follow instructions and illustrations for both single- and two-needle techniques. Simple pieces for children or beginning beaders are followed by more complex projects that will challenge advanced beaders with three-dimensional explorations of cubes, frames, tablets, and boxes. Each of the projects can be modified and personalized in dozens of ways, allowing beaders to design their own inspiring creations.

A plain-English guide to the basics of trig Trigonometry deals with the relationship between the sides and angles of triangles... mostly right triangles. In practical use, trigonometry is a friend to astronomers who use triangulation to measure the distance between stars. Trig also has applications in fields as broad as financial analysis, music theory, biology, medical imaging, cryptology, game development, and seismology. From sines and cosines to logarithms, conic sections, and polynomials, this friendly guide takes the torture out of trigonometry, explaining basic concepts in plain English and offering lots of easy-to-grasp example problems. It also explains the "why" of trigonometry, using real-world examples that illustrate the value of trigonometry in a variety of careers. Tracks to a typical Trigonometry course at the high school or college level Packed with example trig problems From the author of Trigonometry Workbook For Dummies Trigonometry For Dummies is for any student who needs an introduction to, or better understanding of, high-school to college-level trigonometry.

Geometric group theory is the study of the interplay between groups and the spaces they act on, and has its roots in the works of Henri Poincaré, Felix Klein, J.H.C. Whitehead, and Max Dehn. Office Hours with a Geometric Group Theorist brings together leading experts who provide one-on-one instruction on key topics in this exciting and relatively new field of mathematics. It's like having office hours with your most trusted math professors. An essential primer for undergraduates making the leap to graduate work, the book begins with free groups—actions of free groups on trees, algorithmic questions about free groups, the ping-pong lemma, and automorphisms of free groups. It goes on to cover several large-scale geometric invariants of groups, including quasi-isometry groups, Dehn functions, Gromov hyperbolicity, and asymptotic dimension. It also delves into important examples of groups, such as Coxeter groups, Thompson's groups, right-angled Artin groups, lamplighter groups, mapping class groups, and braid groups. The tone is conversational throughout, and the instruction is driven by examples. Accessible to students who have taken a first course in abstract algebra, Office Hours with a Geometric Group Theorist also features numerous exercises and in-depth projects designed to engage readers and provide jumping-off points for research projects.
