"The authors have translated Eckhart's original sermons and academic texts, both from Latin and German into English and from prose into poetry. They consider their work a "carrying over" of his insights for readers "for whom the style of his writings might not be easily accessible."--From the Publisher's Weekly review.

Particle accelerators have been the primary tool of particle physics for over 60 years. They have enabled great advances and discoveries, the latest being the discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Using complementary approaches of colliding protons on protons as a broad-band discovery device and colliding electrons on positrons as a precision probe of the physics, we have uncovered the basic constituents of matter and fundamental symmetries in nature. The International Linear Collider is the next advance in accelerators and will be the complementary electron-positron collider for the Large Hadron Collider. The ILC will enable precision studies of the underlying physics of the Higgs, a completely new kind of particle responsible for the creation of mass in nature.

Grades 2-6 * So often world drumming resources are more about the world and less about the drumming. And while those books definitely belong on your shelves (see Planet Jams (30/2191H), sometimes we just want the music. That's where Just Jams comes in. Starting with fundamental rhythms from various countries/regions, Mark Burrows has built engaging and accessible jams to strengthen students' rhythm skills. Meaningful speech parts for each jam are included, allowing for a teaching process of speech to body percussion to playing, as are suggestions for developing each jam into a performance piece. Diverse in its rhythms--from West Africa, Brazil and Cuba, along with Gaelic, Hawaiian, and Rock 'n' Roll rhythms, and even spoken word slams to Mother Goose rhymes, to name just a few--Just Jams is also diverse in instrumentation, featuring jams for the Orff instrumentarium, Boomwhackers® and sound effects in addition to those for drums and other non-pitched percussion instruments.
