From the supplier: Questions on salvaging insured property losses and on therapeutic parents liability in homeowners insurance policies are presented. In the case of a policy with an 80% coinsurance clause on a building, the insurance company was not entitled to any part of salvage after paying the insured loss. In another case, an insurance company was not entitled to recover the costs of its claims adjustment costs. In the case of therapeutic parents providing home care to disabled children, homeowners policies typically exclude business-related liability.

From the supplier: Holders of commercial general liability insurance polices typically cover medical payments to people who are injured on the premises of the insured. Any accident will trigger the responsibility of an insurance company to pay medical expenses. Holders of homeowners insurance should report any incident in which a person is injured on their property to the insurance company to avoid liability for later claims that will not be covered by the policy. The 'your work' provision of insurance policies typically covers not only the handling of property but the safe handling of property to forestall subsequent damage within a reasonable time.

From the supplier: Property insurance coverage is provided for individuals invited on one's property. Therefore, an accident that occurs in front of an individual's home on the individual's side of the street is not covered and the homeowner is not liable. Passing motorists do not have homeowner permission and cannot pursue medical claims against homeowners.

Book Description
This volume takes a non-economic approach to the issue of the federal deficit. By identifying fiscal problems as merely the visible symptoms of a basic behavioral dynamic common to all people, Cole S. Brembeck undertakes a singular study of how human interests perpetuate the deficit and how, therefore, the deficit issue reflects the nature of the representation in the federal government. Solutions to the worsening deficit crisis can then be explored by shifting the primary focus away from money, budgets, and expenditures and toward people, power, and politics. Fourteen essays discuss different aspects of the human factor in the federal debt by analyzing how members of the U.S. Congress spend public money. After establishing the relationship between money and human behavior (the psychological groundwork of the entire work), attention then turns to the human and political motivations that result in the incurring of debt and how Congress's monetary practices demonstrate the psychology of public spending. A subject that could constitute an attack on Congress receives fresh insight--rather than isolating Congress as a body with a unique propensity for spending, Brembeck acknowledges the relevant force that is a common human motivator. The work aims at redefining the central issue of the debt debate and concludes with proposals that may help to remedy the financial crisis, based on the premise that the federal debt is a human, not a fiscal, problem.

Book Description
As Dutch society has shed the traditional roles of men and women, the patterns of employment, household work and leisure have changed drastically. This book examines the patterns which have emerged by charting the increase in female employment, the blurring of male and female roles in the household, and how these factors affect the use of time in the Netherlands. It also focuses on the effects of the current changes in the organization of employment and the demands of the household, which allow more freedom and democratic interaction, but alter the balance of work and leisure. In an analysis of time allocation in Dutch society, Peters shows how the more equitable distribution of labour between the sexes, as well as the change of demands in the fields of home and employment, reduces time for leisure.

Book Description
Few musical works loom as large in Western culture as Richard Wagner's four-part Ring of the Nibelung. In Finding an Ending, two eminent philosophers, Philip Kitcher and Richard Schacht, offer an illuminating look at this greatest of Wagner's achievements, focusing on its far-reaching and subtle exploration of problems of meanings and endings in this life and world. Kitcher and Schacht plunge the reader into the heart of Wagner's Ring, drawing out the philosophical and human significance of the text and the music. They show how different forms of love, freedom, heroism, authority, and judgment are explored and tested as it unfolds. As they journey across its sweeping musical-dramatic landscape, Kitcher and Schacht lead us to the central concern of the Ring--the problem of endowing life with genuine significance that can be enhanced rather than negated by its ending, if the right sort of ending can be found. The drama originates in Wotan's quest for a transformation of the primordial state of things into a world in which life can be lived more meaningfully. The authors trace the evolution of Wotan's efforts, the intricate problems he confronts, and his failures and defeats. But while the problem Wotan poses for himself proves to be insoluble as he conceives of it, they suggest that his very efforts and failures set the stage for the transformation of his problem, and for the only sort of resolution of it that may be humanly possible--to which it is not Siegfried but rather Brunnhilde who shows the way. The Ring's ending, with its passing of the gods above and destruction of the world below, might seem to be devastating; but Kitcher and Schacht see a kind of meaning in and through the ending revealed to us that is profoundly affirmative, and that has perhaps never been so powerfully and so beautifully expressed.

Trying to End without Religion or Truth........2005-08-18
As a retired philosopher of religion, I find this book appealing--especially its emphasis on the glorious, soaring, wordless theme with which the Ring ends; and also its finding parallels in the Judgment theme in Mozart's Don Giovanni and in Shakespeare's Cordelia in King Lear. Following Nietzsche, however, the authors reject Wagner's last opera, Parsifal, and apparently all religion--Christian, Buddhist, etc. Strange that philosophers that can grasp the meaning in a mytho-poetic work like the Ring reduce religious tradition to simple, literalist fundamentalism!
The Ring, according to the authors, was written under the influence of Feuerbach's secular humanist optimism, complicated by Wagner's own experience of the failure of worldly political utopianism. The ending symbolizes the "death of God," not merely the death of the Idols, as theologians would have it. The atheist pessimism of Schopenhauer came to seem more realistic to Wagner (with his last opera Parsifal??), but not before he finished the Ring with a ringing affirmation of life and love.
In trying to articulate how it is that, in spite of defeat and death, "not everything has been lost," they come surprisingly close, but are finally blocked by the ghost of logical positivism. In Mozart's Don Giovanni, the authors see Nietzsche's Ubermensch; a figure literally beyond good and evil, and not subject to any truth or negative judgment beyond the conflicting prejudices of finite creatures. In the judgment of the authors, the Commendatore, and the transcendent Judgment he symbolizes, is laughable. So also with positive judgment; the final theme of the Ring cannot be "redeemed by Love," but merely "triumph and vindication of Brunnhilde." (In whose eyes? If all judgment and truth are relative? If all who judge are temporary, finite, fallible creatures? If there is no Ideal Observer?)

Book Description
Visual Digital Culture considers the effect of new image technologies on the forms and experience of mass visual culture. Examining the digital imaging techniques employed in films such as Forrest Gump and Toy Story, and across a wide range of media including music video, computer games, theme parks and simulation rides, Andrew Darley argues that contemporary visual culture is radically different from traditional visual culture--marking a break with the emphasis on story, representation, meaning and reading, favoring instead a focus on style, image performance and sensation.

Book Description
This book reports findings from a major, multidisciplinary study of the impact of broadcast television on the remote island community of St. Helena in the South Atlantic Ocean. Broadcast television was introduced to the island for the first time in March 1995. This introduction represented a major event on the island, whose only televisual experience had been through video.
In the years leading up to the introduction of TV, the researchers who wrote this book collected data by observing the island's young children in classroom settings, and during free-play. In addition to these observations they asked the children's teachers to rate their students' behavior, and invited the children to explain to them what leisure time activities they engaged in. With the data they were able to amass on these key variables they have assembled and coded the results into baseline measures central to the study. Once TV had arrived, they collected data annually on the key dependent measures to determine if the introduction of broadcast TV had any discernible influence on the behavior of the children.

The 101 and X99 level book on Computing.......2007-03-16
I studied this book for my Intro to Computing class and found very interesting. This book covers topics beyond computing namely data communications as well. It also discusses the history or evolution of digital computing, worldwide web, software development processes, hardwares, network types and topologies, cyber crimes, and so many other things. This book is more than enough. It definitely addicts students like me and influences them to choose Info Sys, Info Tech, or Computer Science as their major. I believe this book is suitable for both introductory or survey courses "101" and Independent Learning courses "X99"; simply, this book is well written.

If you want to learn more about the computer itself, this book will teach you everything you need to know including the breakdown of the inside.
