In order to cope with these eventualities and save yourself time (and perhaps money), it makes sense to write your applications in such a way that end users can be made as independent of the developers as possible. Giving your users the power to make changes to the way the application operates once it has shipped gives them more control over the way the application works, while reducing the frequency with which you need to redistribute application files, creating a win-win situation. </span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"> This book explains how to give users the power to create additional data-entry fields, validation logic, and new reports without assistance from the application developer. You will learn how to do this for both desktop (C# and WPF) and web (ASP) applications.</span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span> </div> <h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">What you'll learn</span></h3> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <ul><li><span style="font-size: small;">How to allow the user to create validation logic at runtime</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">How to define and instantiate controls at runtime and the pitfalls of doing so</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">How to create data-driven reports using Excel, Crystal Reports, and SQL Server Reporting Services </span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">How to design a database structure for optimizing data-driven applications</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">How to build a user interface that allows users to modify their application visually</span></li></ul> <span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span> </div> <h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Who is this book for?</span></h3> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">This book is for anyone wanting to distribute an application in which the user needs to be as independent of the developer as possible.

How do you represent courses online? What about assignment schedules, lecture podcasts, and collaborative spaces? That's where this book comes in--it takes the burden of routine updates off your web team by harnessing the world's most advanced free content management system.<br /><br />This is the school web team's missing manual. Through step-by-step examples covering 11 common educational use cases, you'll learn how to take the box of parts provided by Plone, combine them with best-of-breed third-party plug-ins, and turn out a dynamic web environment that will be a joy to use for faculty, enhance staff productivity, and engage the student body.<br /><br />Plone is powerful but complex. Its ease of use for end users belies a wealth of under-the-hood features and third-party add-ons that are time-consuming for back-end web teams to sort through. The book guides you on proven paths through the forest of potential that you encounter during design and deployment, starting you with reasonable choices for each of 11 common education-domain use cases. Each one enumerates the value it brings to your site and guides you step-by-step through an implementation suitable for the vast majority of cases, meaning you can spend your time addressing the unique needs of your institution--not reinventing the wheel. </span></div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>What you will learn from this book</strong></span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <ul><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Build common e-learning tasks in Plone: assignment schedules, course materials, online turn-in forms, and class interaction using podcasts and forums</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Build school-wide and department-wise directories collecting contact info, biographies, and more</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Take care of necessities, like customizing the look of your site, setting up a production server, and running incremental backups</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Integrate audio and video with Plone: weaving it into pages, populating portlets, and podcasting it to the world</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Harness Plone4Artists Calendar product to improve the display of event listings</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Find tips on information architecture and usability, learning from the successes and mistakes of several sites</span></div> </li></ul> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://5866ea54.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-5547830775332091704?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-3239619340984977562010-02-03T22:12:00.003-06:002010-02-03T22:16:13.279-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=21295288&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/IlustWPF.jpg" width="289" height="357" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Windows Presentation Foundation is Microsoft’s newest API for creating Windows applications.

Sites like Netflix.com and Zappos.com employ Solr, an open source enterprise search server, which uses and extends the Lucene search library. This is the first book in the market on Solr and it will show you how to optimize your web site for high volume web traffic with full-text search capabilities along with loads of customization options. So, let your users gain a terrific search experience.<br /><br />This book is a comprehensive reference guide for every feature Solr has to offer. It serves the reader right from initiation to development to deployment. It also comes with complete running examples to demonstrate its use and show how to integrate it with other languages and frameworks.<br /><br />This book first gives you a quick overview of Solr, and then gradually takes you from basic to advanced features that enhance your search. It starts off by discussing Solr and helping you understand how it fits into your architecture--where all databases and document/web crawlers fall short, and Solr shines. The main part of the book is a thorough exploration of nearly every feature that Solr offers. To keep this interesting and realistic, we use a large open source set of metadata about artists, releases, and tracks courtesy of the MusicBrainz.org project. Using this data as a testing ground for Solr, you will learn how to import this data in various ways from CSV to XML to database access. You will then learn how to search this data in a myriad of ways, including Solr's rich query syntax, "boosting" match scores based on record data and other means, about searching across multiple fields with different boosts, getting facets on the results, auto-complete user queries, spell-correcting searches, highlighting queried text in search results, and so on.<br /><br />After this thorough tour, we'll demonstrate working examples of integrating a variety of technologies with Solr such as Java, JavaScript, Drupal, Ruby, XSLT, PHP, and Python.<br /><br />Finally, we'll cover various deployment considerations to include indexing strategies and performance-oriented configuration that will enable you to scale Solr to meet the needs of a high-volume site. </span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>What you will learn from this book?</strong></span> </p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <ul><li><span style="font-size: small;">Blend structured data with real search features</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Import CSV formatted data, XML, common document formats, and from databases </span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Deploy Solr and provide reference to Solr's query syntax from the basics to range queries</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Enhance search results with spell-checking, auto-completing queries, highlighting search results, and more.</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Secure Solr</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Integrate a host of technologies with Solr from the server side to client-side JavaScript, to frameworks like Drupal</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Scale Solr using replication, distributed searches, and tuning</span></li></ul> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Approach</strong></span> </p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">The book takes a step-by-step tutorial approach with fully working examples in Java.

Nowadays, 75-95% of the time it takes to process a data request is typically spent in the database middleware. Today’s worst performance and scalability problems are generally caused by issues with networking, database drivers, the broader software/hardware environment, and inefficient coding of data requests. In <em>The Data Access Handbook</em>, two of the world’s leading experts on database access systematically address these issues, showing how to achieve remarkable improvements in performance of real-world database applications.</span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Drawing on their unsurpassed experience with every leading database system and database connectivity API, John Goodson and Rob Steward reveal the powerful ways middleware affects application performance and guide developers with designing and writing API code that will deliver superior performance in each leading environment.

Want to learn more? Whether you’re a self-taught iPhone development genius or have just made your way through the pages of <em>Beginning iPhone 3 Development</em>, we have the perfect book for you.</span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: small;"><em>More iPhone 3 Development: Tackling iPhone SDK 3</em> digs deeper into Apple’s latest SDK. Best-selling authors Dave Mark and Jeff LaMarche explain concepts as only they can, covering topics like Core Data, peer-to-peer networking using GameKit and network streams, working with data from the web, MapKit, in-application e-mail, and more. All the concepts and APIs are clearly presented with code snippets you can customize and use, as you like, in your own apps. </span></div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">If you are going to write a professional iPhone app, you’ll want to get your arms around Core Data, and there’s no better place to do so than in the pages of this book. The book continues right where <em>Beginning iPhone 3 Development</em> left off with a series of chapters devoted to Core Data, the standard for persistence that Apple introduced to iPhone with SDK 3. Jeff and Dave carefully step through each of the Core Data concepts and show you techniques and tips specifically for writing larger applications—offering a breadth of coverage you won't find anywhere else.</span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Core Data coverage alone is worth the price of admission. But there's so much more. This book covers a variety of networking mechanisms, from GameKit’s relatively simple BlueTooth peer-to-peer model, to the addition of Bonjour discovery and network streams, through the complexity of accessing files via the web. Dave and Jeff will also take you through coverage of concurrent programming and some advanced techniques for debugging your applications.</span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Whether you are a relative newcomer to iPhone development or an old hand looking to expand your horizons, there’s something for everyone in <em>More iPhone 3 Development</em>.</span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Note: A few of the apps in this book demonstrate technologies not yet supported by the simulator. To run them on your iPhone or iPod touch, you'll need to join one of Apple's paid iPhone developer programs.</span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">What you’ll learn</span></h3> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <ul><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">All about Core Data: key concepts and techniques for writing larger application</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">How to utilize a variety of networking mechanisms, including peer-to-peer connections over Bluetooth using GameKit</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Details on the addition of Bonjour discovery and network streams</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">How to embed maps with Map Kit and use in-application email</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">How to access a user's iPod library and integrate music into applications</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Essentials of concurrent programming and advanced debugging techniques</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Tips on working with data from the web</span></div> </li></ul> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://7f210232.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-8164174863508322340?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-39363038732808138632010-01-03T15:48:00.001-06:002010-01-03T15:48:50.334-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=20881979&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/Win7Rough.jpg" height="438" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Want to make Windows 7 run faster, smarter, easier, better?

It provides you with everything you need to include mathematical notation, graphs, images, video, audio, and more in your Moodle courses. By following the practical examples in this book, you can create feature-rich quizzes that are automatically marked, use tools to monitor student progress, employ modules and plugins allowing students to explore mathematical concepts. You'll also learn the integration of presentations, interactive math elements, SCORM, and Flash objects into Moodle. It will take you through these elements in detail and help you learn how to create, edit, and integrate them into Moodle.<br /><br />Soon you will develop your own exciting, interactive, and engaging online math courses with ease. </span></div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>What you will learn from this book?</strong></span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <ul><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Convert mathematics teaching over to Moodle</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Enhance your course with interactive graphs, images, videos, and audio</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Integrate interactive presentations and explore different ways to include them in your course</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Create your own SCORM activities using both free and commercial tools</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Add rich animation and fun games by incorporating Flash games and activities for engaging your students</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Build feature-rich quizzes and set online assignments</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Monitor student progress and assess your teaching success</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Configure Moodle to display the complete set of mathematical symbols and objects</span></div> </li></ul> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://ddfffb68.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-8051770573065090302?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-42893770752023027392010-01-03T15:44:00.002-06:002010-01-03T15:45:25.653-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=20881977&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/ModSecurity.jpg" height="359" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Prevent web application hacking with this easy to use guide </span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <ul><li><span style="font-size: small;">Secure your system by knowing exactly how a hacker would break into it</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Covers writing rules in-depth and Modsecurity rule language elements such as variables, actions, and request phases</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Covers the common attacks in use on the Web, and ways to find the geographical location of an attacker and send alert emails when attacks are discovered</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Packed with many real-life examples for better understanding</span></li></ul> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>In Detail</strong></span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"> With more than 67% of web servers running Apache and web-based attacks becoming more and more prevalent, web security has become a critical area for web site managers. Most existing tools work on the TCP/IP level, failing to use the specifics of the HTTP protocol in their operation. Mod_security is a module running on Apache, which will help you overcome the security threats prevalent in the online world.<br /><br />A complete guide to using ModSecurity, this book will show you how to secure your web application and server, and does so by using real-world examples of attacks currently in use. It will help you learn about SQL injection, cross-site scripting attacks, cross-site request forgeries, null byte attacks, and many more so that you know how attackers operate.<br />Using clear, step-by-step instructions this book starts by teaching you how to install and set up ModSecurity, before diving into the rule language with examples. It assumes no prior knowledge of ModSecurity, so as long as you are familiar with basic Linux administration, you can start to learn right away.<br /><br />Real-life case studies are used to illustrate the dangers on the Web today - you will for example learn how the recent worm that hit Twitter works, and how you could have used ModSecurity to stop it in its tracks. The mechanisms behind these and other attacks are described in detail, and you will learn everything you need to know to make sure your server and web application remain unscathed on the increasingly dangerous web. Have you ever wondered how attackers figure out the exact web server version running on a system? They use a technique called HTTP fingerprinting, and you will learn about this in depth and how to defend against it by flying your web server under a "false flag".<br /><br />The last part of the book shows you how to really lock down a web application by implementing a positive security model that only allows through requests that conform to a specific, pre-approved model, and denying anything that is even the slightest bit out of line. </span></div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>What you will learn from this book?</strong></span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <ul><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Compile ModSecurity from source and install it on a Linux system</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Log any anomalous event and use the ModSecurity console to view log data online so that attempted break-ins can be quickly discovered and dealt with</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Learn how a recent worm disabled Twitter and how it could have been stopped using ModSecurity</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Guard against web site defacement by having ModSecurity scan for unauthorized changes to your web pages then alert you about issues via email.</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Locate the geographical position of an attacker using ModSecurity applications</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Know how attackers operate by learning about SQL injection, cross-site scripting attacks, cross-site request forgeries, null byte attacks, and many more </span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Put Apache in a chroot jail using ModSecurity - no more frustrating hours of tinkering to get everything working as it should</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Prevent HTTP fingerprinting by flying your Apache server under a false flag</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Protect against newly discovered vulnerabilities that don't have a vendor-supplied patch, using ModSecurity "just-in-time" patching</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Prevent the source code of your web application being shown to the world if something goes wrong with your server configuration</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Discover the real IP address of an attacker using ModSecurity, even if the attacker is behind a proxy server</span></div> </li></ul> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://71de4939.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-4289377075202302739?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-16900322540254801772010-01-03T15:44:00.001-06:002010-01-03T15:44:52.742-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=20881975&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/MiddlewareOracle.jpg" height="359" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Monitor, diagnose, and maximize the system performance of Oracle Fusion Middleware solutions </span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <ul><li><span style="font-size: small;">Manage your Oracle Fusion Middleware and non-Oracle middleware applications effectively and efficiently using Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Conrol</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Implement proactive monitoring to maximize application performance</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">Best practices and troubleshooting tips to manage your middleware and SOA applications for optimal service levels and reduced down time from Oracle Product Managers</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">A Hands-on tutorial detailing Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control's management of Middleware</span></li></ul> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>In Detail</strong></span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Today's IT environment is very complex, encompassing a myriad of technologies and middleware platforms.

It's a rules-changing, groundbreaking technology that allows you to run rich client applications right inside the browser. Even more impressively, it's able to host true .NET applications in non-Microsoft browsers (like Firefox) and on non-Microsoft platforms (like Mac OS X).

With all this, the amount of code that you need to write personally to take a project from conception to completion is drastically reduced.<br /><br />Specially revised for version 1.7 of jQuery UI, this book has been written to maximize your experience with the library by breaking down each component and walking you through examples that progressively build upon your knowledge, taking you from beginner to advanced usage in a series of easy-to-follow steps.<br /><br />In this book, you'll learn how each component can be initialized in a basic default implementation and then see how easy it is to customize its appearance and configure its behavior to tailor it to the requirements of your application. You'll look at the configuration options and the methods exposed by each component's API to see how these can be used to bring out the best of the library.<br /><br />Events play a key role in any modern web application if it is to meet the expected minimum requirements of interactivity and responsiveness, and each chapter will show you the custom events fired by the component covered and how these events can be intercepted and acted upon. </span></div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>What you will learn from this book?</strong></span> </p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <ul><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">How the brand-new CSS framework styles each of the library components</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Organizing different sections of related content as tabs and accordions to save space on your page while maximizing its content</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Displaying messages, images, and interactive content like forms using the dialog widget</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Using sliders for volume and color control of your applications by dynamically scrolling left and right, displaying different ranges</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Allowing your site visitors to select dates from the calendar using the date picker widget</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Adding an attractive and effective deterministic progress bar to give visitors essential feedback on how much longer a process has left to complete</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Providing a drag-and-drop mechanism to let users directly rearrange elements around the page</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Making a range of elements of a group selectable and taking collective actions on them</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Creating a page with content boxes that can be sorted into various positions to suit the visitor's personal preference</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Adding flair to your actions with animation effects</span></div> </li></ul> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://d514bc4b.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-5382529746167702435?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-39644043333691924142009-12-08T12:08:00.002-06:002009-12-08T12:09:11.967-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=20482986&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/matplotlidPythin.jpg" height="357" width="289" /></a></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Providing appealing plots and graphs is an essential part of various fields such as scientific research, data analysis, and so on. Matplotlib, the Python 2D plotting library, is used to produce publication-quality figures in a variety of hardcopy formats and interactive environments across platforms. This book explains creating various plots, histograms, power spectra, bar charts, error charts, scatter-plots and much more using the powerful Matplotlib library to get impressive out-of-the-box results.<br /><br />This book gives you a comprehensive tour of the key features of the Matplotlib Python 2D plotting library, right from the simplest concepts to the most advanced topics. You will discover how easy it is to produce professional-quality plots when you have this book to hand.<br /><br />The book introduces the library in steps. First come the basics: introducing what the library is, its important prerequisites (and terminology), installing and configuring Matplotlib, and going through simple plots such as lines, grids, axes, and charts. Then we start with some introductory examples, and move ahead by discussing the various programming styles that Matplotlib allows, and several key features.<br /><br />Further, the book presents an important section on embedding applications. You will be introduced to three of the best known GUI libraries--GTK+, Qt, and wxWidgets--and presented with the steps to implement to include Matplotlib in an application written using each of them. You will learn through an incremental approach: from a simple example that presents the peculiarities of the GUI library, to more complex ones, using GUI designer tools.<br /><br />Because the Web permeates all of our activities, a part of the book is dedicated to showing how Matplotlib can be used in a web environment, and another section focuses on using Matplotlib with common Python web frameworks, namely, Pylons and Django. Last, but not least, you will go through real-world examples, where you will see some real situations in which you can use Matplotlib. </span></div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>What you will learn from this book?</strong></span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <ul><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Exploit the interactive computing environment of IPython to its fullest in collaboration with Matplotlib</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Learn line and point styles and master their customization, customization of axis ticks, and develop several plot types available in Matplotlib, such as histograms, bars, pie charts, polar charts, and so on</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Explore Object Oriented Matplotlib and learn how to add subplots, multiple figures, additional and shared axes, logarithmic scaled axes, data plotting with tick formatting and locators, text properties, fonts, LaTeX typewriting, and contour plots</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Get comfortable with Glade--a RAD tool--to quickly design a GUI for GTK+ and embed Matplotlib into it</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Make the most of Matplotlib within the wxWidgets framework, in particular using the wxPython bindings and design a GUI with wxGlade</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Use the Qt Designer to draw a simple GUI and refer it to your Python code to fit your needs</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Expose Matplotlib on the Web using CGI (through Apache mod_cgi), mod_python, Django, and Pylons in no time at all</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Profit from the real-world examples by simply following the stream--identify the data source, elaborate the data and generate the resulting plot</span></div> </li></ul> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://5d17cac2.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-3964404333369192414?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-51308151758501939942009-12-08T12:08:00.001-06:002009-12-08T12:08:37.871-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=20482984&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/linuxEmail.jpg" height="357" width="289" /></a></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Many businesses want to run their email servers on Linux for greater control and flexibility of corporate communications, but getting started can be complicated. The attractiveness of a free-to-use and robust email service running on Linux can be undermined by the apparent technical challenges involved. Some of the complexity arises from the fact that an email server consists of several components that must be installed and configured separately, then integrated together.<br /><br />This book gives you just what you need to know to set up and maintain an email server. Unlike other approaches that deal with one component at a time, this book delivers a step-by-step approach across all the server components, leaving you with a complete working email server for your small business network.<br /><br />Starting with a discussion on why you should even consider hosting your own email server, the book covers setting up the mail server. We then move on to look at providing web access, so that users can access their email out of the office. After this we look at the features you'll want to add to improve email productivity: virus protection, spam detection, and automatic email processing. Finally we look at an essential maintenance task: backups.<br /><br />Written by professional Linux administrators, the book is aimed at technically confident users and new and part-time system administrators. The emphasis is on simple, practical and reliable guidance.<br /><br />Based entirely on free, Open Source software, this book will show you how to set up and manage your email server easily. </span></div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>What you will learn from this book?</strong> You will:</span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <ul><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Install Postfix mail transfer agent and set up an environment to send and receive email messages</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Implement the two standard email retrieval protocol services - POP3 and IMAP - for your mail server using Courier-IMAP</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Configure an easy-to-use open source email client - Mozilla Thunderbird - on your system</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Install and maintain an efficient webmail solution for your clients with SquirrelMail</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Prevent usernames and passwords from being sent in plain text, instead encrypting them to avoid eavesdroppers from intercepting valid account details</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Configure relay permissions for static as well as dynamic IP addresses, and protect your Postfix server from relay abuse</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Create mail filters, sort your incoming mail into separate folders, pre-process your mail, start any programs upon mail arrival and selectively forward certain incoming mail automatically to someone using Procmail</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Automatically filter all the mails for spam by integrating SpamAssassin with your mail server</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Secure your mail server by configuring an email virus scanning system with Clam AV</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Create an ongoing scheduled backup to recover from catastrophic loss of service in case of a major hardware or software malfunction</span></div> </li></ul> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://948db1b9.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-5130815175850193994?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-7206502991123200172009-12-08T12:07:00.000-06:002009-12-08T12:08:15.423-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=20482987&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/NAV2009.jpg" height="356" width="289" /></a></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Microsoft Dynamics NAV is a well established Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application, part of the Microsoft Dynamics family.

It covers the theory of REST; practical coding examples for RESTful clients; a practical outline of the RESTful design process-yes, it's different from traditional web application development; and a complete implementation of a non-trivial web service using the following frameworks: Jersey's JAX-RS, Restlet's Lightweight REST, JBoss's JAX-RS RESTEasy, and Struts 2 with the REST plug-in.<br /><br />We begin with an introduction to REST theory, for example, what it means for a web service to be RESTful, what it means for a web service to exchange representations of resources, and what it means to only use the conventional HTTP request method types-GET, POST, PUT, DELETE-for client/server communication. Before moving into the design and implementation process of a non-trivial web service, we look at a set of sample Java applications that connect to existing REST services that are freely available (Google, Yahoo, Twitter). We then outline a practical design process for RESTful web services and then cover the four most widely used frameworks available to date: JAX-RS implementations such as Jersey and RESTEasy, the Restlet framework, and Struts 2 with the REST plug-in. We cover each framework in detail to allow you to compare the strengths and weaknesses of each framework and to begin developing your own web services after the first reading; what's more, the whole source is included for you to modify and deploy in your own web services. Finally, we discuss the most common performance issues faced by RESTful web services and cover practical solutions to security-related issues such as authentication and data transfer. </span></div> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>What you will learn from this book?</strong></span></p> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <ul><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">REST architecture basics</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">What it means for a web service to be RESTful</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">How to connect to and consume RESTful web services such as Yahoo or Google</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">A RESTful web service design heuristic</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">How to deploy web services to Java web containers such as Tomcat and JBoss</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">How to implement an entire web service using the most popular open source frameworks currently available, including JAX-RS implementations Jersey and RESTEasy, Restlet, and Struts 2 with the REST plug-in</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">How to create standalone Java web services using the Restlet framework</span></div> </li><li> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">How you can secure RESTful web services</span></div> </li></ul> <div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://6d42d3d8.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-7016116160667083806?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-58973461830924695362009-11-11T21:56:00.001-06:002009-11-11T21:56:56.439-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=20119518&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img style="width: 372px; height: 290px;" src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/win7dummies.jpg" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Just the steps you need to get going with Windows 7!<br /><br />Coming in day and date with Microsoft's exciting release of the new Window 7 operating system, this friendly, accessible book shows you the features and functions you need from this exciting new operating system.

It serves as a primer on XML and XML-related technologies, illustrating how the naming of XML elements can be understood as a rhetorical act, and detailing the essentials of knowledge management practices that illustrate the need for intelligently conceived databases in organizations. Authors J.D. Applen and Rudy McDaniel explain how technical knowledge and rhetorical knowledge are symbiotic assets in the modern information economy, emphasizing that skilled professionals and apprentice learners must not only adapt to and become adept with new technological environments, but they must also remain aware of the dynamic social and technological contexts through which they communicate. Applen and McDaniel use this subject as a catalyst to encourage interdisciplinary connections and projects between experts in fields such as technical communication, digital media, library science, computer science, and information technology.<br /><br />The authors demonstrate techniques for working with XML in interdisciplinary projects with attention to single sourcing and content management. Interviews with practitioners working with XML for research and in industry are also included, to illustrate how XML is currently being used in a variety of disciplines, such as technical communication and digital media. Combining applied theory and XML technology to solve real-world problems in technical communication and digital media, this work provides an entry point for students and practitioners who do not have an extensive background in markup languages, enabling them to begin developing user-centric projects using XML.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://f06b0ead.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-1293243207155197848?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-42680969412471177812009-11-11T21:54:00.001-06:002009-11-11T21:55:33.714-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=20119490&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/ExpWEB.jpg" height="368" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size:small;">Beyond the Basics…Beneath the Surface…In Depth<br /><br />Microsoft Expression Web 3<br /><br />Advice and techniques that you need to get the job done.<br /><br />Looking for ways to streamline your work so that you can focus on maximizing your time?

The next wave of benefits will come when they reduce the time and effort required to run and manage VMware platforms. The VMware Infrastructure Software Development Kit (VI SDK) includes application programming interfaces (APIs) that allow developers and administrators to do just that. Until now, there has been little documentation for the APIs. In VMware VI and vSphere SDK, software architect Steve Jin demystifies the entire VMware VI and new vSphere SDK and offers detailed, task-based coverage of using the APIs to manage VMware more efficiently and cost-effectively.<br /><br />Jin walks you through using the VI SDK and cloud-computing vSphere SDK to manage ESX servers, ESX clusters, and VirtualCenter servers in any environment–no matter how complex.

To tell too much would ruin the fun of reading this delicious thriller, so you will find no spoilers here. Suffice it to say that as with many series featuring a recurring character, there is a bit of a formula at work (one that fans will love). Again, brilliant Harvard professor Robert Langdon finds himself in a predicament that requires his vast knowledge of symbology and superior problem-solving skills to save the day. The setting, unlike other Robert Langdon novels, is stateside, and in Brown's hands Washington D.C. is as fascinating as Paris or Vatican City (note to the D.C. tourism board: get your "Lost Symbol" tour in order). And, as with other Dan Brown books, the pace is relentless, the revelations many, and there is an endless parade of intriguing factoids that will make you feel like you are spending the afternoon with Robert Langdon and the guys from Mythbusters.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://8366581b.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-3008090075433524081?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-36133781399856289492009-09-26T20:00:00.000-05:002009-09-26T20:01:00.601-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=19413170&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/OReillyLearningFlashCS4Professional.jpg" height="353" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Learning Flash CS4 Professional offers beginners and intermediate Flash developers a unique introduction to the latest version of Adobe's powerful multimedia application.

AspectJ is a mature AOP implementation for Java, now integrated with Spring.<br /><br />AspectJ in Action, Second Edition is a fully updated, major revision of Ramnivas Laddad's best-selling first edition. It's a hands-on guide for Java developers. After introducing the core principles of AOP, it shows you how to create reusable solutions using AspectJ 6 and Spring 3. You'll master key features including annotation-based syntax, load-time weaver, annotation-based crosscutting, and Spring-AspectJ integration. Building on familiar technologies such as JDBC, Hibernate, JPA, Spring Security, Spring MVC, and Swing, you'll apply AOP to common problems encountered in enterprise applications.<br /><br />This book requires no previous experience in AOP and AspectJ, but it assumes you're familiar with OOP, Java, and the basics of Spring.<br /><br />"Clear, concisely worded, well-organized ... a pleasure to read."<br />-From the Foreword by Rod Johnson, Creator of the Spring Framework<br /><br />"This book teaches you how to think in aspects. It is essential reading for both beginners who know nothing about AOP and experts who think they know it all."<br />- Andrew Eisenberg, AspectJ Development Tools Project Committer<br /><br />"Ramnivas showcases how to get the best out of AspectJ and Spring."<br />-Andy Clement, AspectJ Project Lead<br /><br />"One of the best Java books in years."<br />-Andrew Rhine, Software Engineer, eSecLending<br /><br />"By far the best reference for Spring AOP and AspectJ."<br />-Paul Benedict, Software Engineer, Argus Health Systems<br /><br />"Ramnivas expertly demystifies the awesome power of aspect-oriented programming."<br />-Craig Walls, author of Spring in Action</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://be525923.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-5090580713284028553?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-33021530272354940162009-09-26T19:57:00.001-05:002009-09-26T19:57:56.705-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=19413139&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/iPhoneCoolProjects.jpg" height="383" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">The iPhone and iPod touch have provided all software developers with a level playing field—developers working alone have the same access to consumers as multinational software publishers. Very cool indeed! To make your application stand out from the crowd, though, it has to have that something extra. You must learn the skills to take your apps from being App Store filler to download chart-topping blockbusters.<br /><br />Developers with years of experience helped write this book. Spend some time understanding their code and why they took the approach they did. You will find the writing, illustrations, code, and sample applications second to none. No matter what type of application you are writing, you will find something in this book to help you make your app that little bit cooler.<br /><br />The book opens with Wolfgang Ante, the developer behind the Frenzic puzzle game, showing how timers, animation, and intelligence are used to make game play engaging. It moves on to Rogue Amoeba's Mike Ash explaining how to design a network protocol using UDP, and demonstrating its use in a peer-to-peer application—a topic not normally for the faint of heart, but explained here in a way that makes sense to mere mortals. Gary Bennett then covers the important task of multithreading. Multithreading can be used to keep the user interface responsive while working on other tasks in the background. Gary demonstrates how to do this and highlights traps to avoid along the way.<br /><br />Next up, Canis Lupus (aka Matthew Rosenfeld) describes the development of the Keynote-controlling application Stage Hand, how the user interface has evolved, and the lessons he has learned from that experience. Benjamin Jackson then introduces two open source libraries: cocos2d, for 2D gaming; and Chipmunk, for rigid body physics (think “collisions”). He describes the development of Arcade Hockey, an air hockey game, and explains some of the code used for this.<br /><br />Neil Mix of Pandora Radio reveals the science behind processing streaming audio. How do you debug what you can't see? Neil guides you through the toughest challenges, sharing his experience of what works and what to watch out for when working with audio. Finally, Steven Peterson demonstrates a comprehensive integration of iPhone technologies. He weaves Core Location, networking, XML, XPath, and SQLite into a solid and very useful application.<br /><br />Software development can be hard work. Introductory books lay the foundation, but it can be challenging to understand where to go next. This book shows some of the pieces that can be brought together to make complete, cool applications.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://0a90956d.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="font-size: medium;">==> Download <==</span></strong></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-3302153027235494016?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-8302749935489480572009-09-11T09:52:00.001-05:002009-09-11T09:52:48.431-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=19206794&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/sqlserver2008.jpg" height="364" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">SQL Server 2008 Administration isn't a standard SQL Server tutorial-there are dozens of those to choose from. Instead, this book breaks down the role of "SQL Server Administrator" into its key focus areas and tasks and details the techniques and best practices that make an administrator effective. In this book, a reader can quickly identify a task and find the best practice associated with it. For example, a reader looking for information about indexing would find step-by-step procedures for identifying and dropping unused indexes, creating missing indexes, selecting the appropriate clustered index, and so forth.<br /><br />Each technique is presented in a clear, straightforward style and in the order of the typical lifecycle of a SQL Server system. This allows a reader to easily open the book at the appropriate page and focus on what you need to know for each specific situation.<br /><br />While most techniques will work for all versions of SQL Server, this book is current for the recent final release of SQL Server 2008.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://a6f831dc.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-830274993548948057?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-63341152403252045022009-09-11T09:48:00.002-05:002009-09-24T10:48:12.567-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=19206755&owner=Peaxh " target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/OCP.jpg" height="361" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size:small;">Prepare for OCP certification in Oracle Database 11g<br /><br />Study, practice, and review for Oracle Certified Professional certification in Oracle 11g, Oracle's new release of its top-selling database software.

It uses technology in new ways to make information universally accessible; promotes a corporate culture that encourages creativity among its employees; and takes its role as a corporate citizen very seriously, investing in green initiatives and developing the largest corporate foundation in the United States.<br /><br />Following in the footsteps of Warren Buffett Speaks and Jack Welch Speaks—which contain a conversational style that successfully captures the essence of hese business leaders—Google Speaks reveals the amazing story behind one of the most important new companies of our time by exploring the people and philosophies that have made it a global phenomenon in less than fifteen years.<br /><br />Written by bestselling author Janet Lowe, this book offers an engaging look at how Google's founders, Sergey Brin and Larry Page, transformed their vision of a better Internet search engine into a business colossus with about $16 billion in annual revenue. Lowe discusses the values that drive Brin and Page-for example, how they both live fairly modest lives, despite each having a net worth in excess of $15.9 billion-and details how they have created a culture that fosters fun while, at the same time, keeping Google at the forefront of technology through relentless R&amp;D investments and imaginative partnerships with organizations such as NASA.<br /><br />In addition to examining Google's breakthrough business strategies and new business models-which have transformed online advertising and changed the way we look at corporate responsibility and employee relations-Lowe explains why Google may be a harbinger of where corporate America is headed. She also addresses controversies surrounding Google, such as copyright infringement, antitrust concerns, and personal privacy and poses the question almost every successful company must face: as Google grows, can it hold on to its entrepreneurial spirit as well as its informal motto, "Don't do evil"?<br /><br />What started out as a university research project conducted by Sergey Brin and Larry Page has ended up revolutionizing the world we live in. Google Speaks puts these incredible entrepreneurs in perspective and shows you how their drive and determination have allowed them to create one of today's most powerful companies.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://edf59fec.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-6216712392475033953?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-83995141183395886342009-09-02T21:35:00.002-05:002009-09-02T22:02:28.301-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=19079200&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/ciscoasa.jpg" height="382" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">This is a hands-on guide to implementing Cisco ASA (Adaptive Security Appliance).

But when it comes to web development, many frameworks seem over-engineered and too complex. They have a steep learning curve, and it's just too difficult to get them to do exactly what you need because of their "closed-box" design.<br /><br />Stripes brings simplicity back to Java web development. You'll be up and running in minutes, and can go a long way with just a few simple concepts. You'll spend your time developing your application, not maintaining gobs of configuration. Because Stripes is very transparent, you will understand exactly what is going on from request to response.<br /><br />The popularity of Stripes keeps increasing because of its clean design and extensibility. With this complete tutorial and reference, you can master Stripes and take advantage of its productivity in web application development. You'll tailor the framework to your requirements, not the other way around!</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">This book is packed with explanations and examples so that you learn practical problem-solving techniques. You'll be able to "wrap your head around the framework" and fully understand how Stripes works. When a client requests a feature, you'll answer "yes" with confidence because you're using a framework that lets you get the results that you need without getting in your way. Because of its open design, Stripes lets you easily integrate your favorite tools: tag libraries, AJAX frameworks, ORM solutions, dependency injectors, and more.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://b6705bba.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-8690959213544854468?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-23588003453311202352009-08-19T11:54:00.001-05:002009-08-19T11:54:56.639-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=18891643&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/neurowebdesigne.jpg" height="373" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">“While you’re reading Neuro Web Design, you’ll probably find yourself thinking ‘I already knew that…’ a lot. But when you’re finished, you’ll discover that your ability to create effective web sites has mysteriously improved. A brilliant idea for a book, and very nicely done.”<br />— Steve Krug, author of Don’t Make Me Think!<br />A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability<br /><br />Why do people decide to buy a product online? Register at your Web site? Trust the information you provide? Neuro Web Design applies the research on motivation, decision making, and neuroscience to the design of Web sites. You will learn the unconscious reasons for people’s actions, how emotions affect decisions, and how to apply the principles of persuasion to design Web sites that encourage users to click.<br /><br />Neuro Web Design employs “neuro-marketing” concepts, which are at the intersection of psychology and user experience. It’s scientific, yet you’ll find it accessible, easy to read, and easy to understand. By applying the concepts and examples in this book, you’ll be able to dramatically increase the effectiveness and conversion rates of your own Web site.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://d2536823.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="font-size: medium;">==> Download <==</span></strong></a></p> <a href="http://bux.to/?r=peaxh"> <p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg75/peaxh/Promos/banner-2.png" /></p></a><a href="http://bux.to/?r=peaxh"> </a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-2358800345331120235?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-3806967419312842142009-08-19T11:53:00.000-05:002009-08-19T11:54:31.376-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=18891640&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/androidaplication.jpg" height="380" width="289" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">This practical book provides the concepts and code you need to develop software with Android, the open-source platform for cell phones and mobile devices that's generating enthusiasm across the industry.

ActionScript 3 provides not only a significant enhancement in performance, but also a more robust programming model that lends itself to complex Rich Internet Application development. For web designers and developers who need to make the move to ActionScript 3 from the previous version, ActionScript 2, the learning curve has proven to be significant. In this essential and timely guide, ActionScript expert Kris Hadlock speaks squarely to the many thousands of ActionScript 2 users who need to make the leap right away. The ActionScript Migration Guide covers all of the major changes in ActionScript from version 2 to 3. The book explains the most important and fundamental changes in ActionScript drawing comparisons between the two languages both visually and contextually. With a comprehensive index and robust table of contents designers and developers will easily be able to locate the old an/or new codes with side-by-side comparisons of how to program both and the explanation of the concepts behind them.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://887d44b0.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p> <a href="http://www.myhpf.co.uk/banner.asp?friend=57597"> <p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg75/peaxh/Promos/60x468.gif" border="0" /></p></a><a href="http://www.myhpf.co.uk/banner.asp?friend=57597"> </a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-1900675870852162518?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-63092005637981828252009-05-30T23:41:00.001-05:002009-05-30T23:41:52.591-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=17311119&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/WroxPythonCreateModifyReuse.jpg" width="289" height="362" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Python: Create-Modify-Reuse is designed for all levels of Python developers interested in a practical, hands-on way of learning Python development. This book is designed to show you how to use Python (in combination with the raw processing power of your computer) to accomplish real-world tasks in a more efficient way. Don’t look for an exhaustive description of the Python language––you won’t find it. The book’s main purpose is not to thoroughly cover the Python language, but rather to show how you can use Python to create robust, real-world applications.<br /><br />In this respect, the goal is similar to foreign-language books that identify themselves as “conversational,” focusing on the vocabulary and concepts that people will need the most. Likewise, I focus specifically on the Python knowledge needed to accomplish practical, specific tasks. Along the way, you will learn to create useful, efficient scripts that are easy to maintain and enhance.<br /><br />This book is for developers with some experience with Python who want to explore how to develop full-blown applications. It is also for developers with experience in other languages who want to learn Python by building robust applications. It is well-suited for developers who like to “learn by doing,” rather than exploring a language feature by feature. To get the most out of the book, you should understand basic programming principles.<br /><br />Because this book is project-based, you can approach it in numerous ways. You can, of course, read it from cover to cover. Chapters 2 through 8 each cover a different project, so the chapters are independent of each other. However, because each chapter project is covered individually, there may be some overlap of information. I also sometimes refer to explanations of particular topics covered in previous chapters. This will help to reinforce important concepts.<br /><br />The end of the book contains two appendixes. The first one is a listing of Python resources you can check out for more information. The second one will help you with installing additional components used in some of the examples.<br /><br />This book starts with a basic overview of the Python language, designed for those familiar with other languages but new to Python. It is followed by several chapters, each of which describes a complete project that can be used as-is or modified and extended to suit your particular purposes. You’ll find applications that access databases, take advantage of web technologies, and facilitate network communications, to name a few. In addition, and more important than the technologies you will be introduced to, you will learn how to use Python to solve real challenges. Following these chapters are two chapters that cover accessing operating system resources and debugging and testing, respectively.<br /><br />Each project chapter contains complete instructions describing how to install and use the application, so you can actually see the program run as you learn how to construct and use it, including how the project was designed and prototyped. This book is intended to be both a reference guide and a learning aid, teaching you how to build solutions with Python and providing reference information on a wide variety of Python programming concepts.<br /><br />It is hoped that this book will help you have fun with Python and build useful applications, and—unlike my experience with building a deck—without sore thumbs.<br /><br />This book is framed around the code itself. This is because developers are typically looking for how to do something; and, as with many activities, you learn how to do something by watching how others do and trying it yourself. If you want to know how a for loop works, you’ll find for loops in my code, but that’s not the thrust of the book. Instead, this book shows you how to do things: how to build a content management system, how to build a test management system, how to set up a system for tracking customer follow-up, and so on. Along the way, you’ll learn how to communicate with a SQL database, how to act as a web server or communicate with one, how to access operating system services, and more.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://6c372ea1.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p> <a href="http://bux.to/?r=peaxh"> <p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg75/peaxh/Promos/banner-2.png" /></p></a><a href="http://bux.to/?r=peaxh"> </a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-6309200563798182825?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-18927957082647021212009-05-30T23:40:00.000-05:002009-05-30T23:41:23.697-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=17311118&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/NewRidersPressVisualDesign.jpg" width="289" height="353" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Just as great artists must understand their tools, great Web designers must understand the technology behind their art.

After that the book is divided into a number of sections that cover both the C# language and its application in a variety of areas.<br /><br />Part I: The C# Language gives a good grounding in the C# language itself. This section doesn’t presume knowledge of any particular language, although it does assume you are an experienced programmer. You start by looking at C#’s basic syntax and data types, and then explore the object-oriented features of C# before moving on to look at more advanced C# programming topics.<br /><br />Part II: Visual Studio looks at the main IDE utilized by C# developers world-wide: Visual Studio 2005. The two chapters in this section look at the best way to use the tool to build applications based upon either the .NET Framework 2.0 or 3.0. In addition to this, this section also focuses on the deployment of your projects.<br /><br />Part III: Base Class Libraries looks at the principles of programming in the .NET environment. In particular, you look at<br />security, threading localization, transactions, how to build Windows services, and how to generate your own libraries as assemblies.<br /><br />Part IV: Data looks at accessing databases with ADO.NET and LINQ, and at interacting with directories and files. This part also extensively covers support in .NET for XML and on the Windows operating system side, and the .NET features of SQL Server 2008. Within the large space of LINQ, particular focus is put on LINQ to SQL and LINQ to XML.<br /><br />Part V: Presentation focuses on building classic Windows applications, which are called Windows Forms in .NET. Windows Forms are the thick-client version of applications, and using .NET to build these types of applications is a quick and easy way of accomplishing this task. In addition to looking at Windows Forms, you take a look at GDI+, which is the technology you will use for building applications that include advanced graphics. This section also covers writing components that will run on Web sites, serving up Web pages. This covers the tremendous number of new features that ASP.NET 3.5 provides. Finally, this section also shows how to build applications based upon the Windows Presentation Foundation and VSTO.<br /><br />Part VI: Communication covers Web services for platform-independent communication, .NET Remoting for communication between .NET clients and servers, Enterprise Services for the services in the background, and DCOM communication. With Message Queuing asynchronous, disconnected communication is shown. This section also looks at utilizing the Windows Communication Foundation and the Windows Workflow Foundation.<br /><br />Part VII: Appendices (Online): This section includes three appendices focused on how to build applications that take into account the new features and barriers found in Windows Vista. Also, this section looks at the upcoming ADO.NET Entities technology and how to use this new technology in your C# applications.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://e89fd9cb.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p> <a href="http://www.quebec-ptp.com/inscription.php?parrain=Peaxh" target="blank"> <p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.quebec-ptp.com/banbleu.gif" /></p> </a><!-- google_ad_section_end --><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-7575468522294387106?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-5089896890909317152009-04-23T22:51:00.000-05:002009-04-23T22:52:05.501-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=16320319&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/SamsMicrosoftExpressionBlendUnleash.jpg" width="289" height="379" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Microsoft Expression Blend Unleashed is about learning a new tool for designers, but also learning a new mindset for developers.

But if code isn’t clean, it can bring a development organization to its knees. Every year, countless hours and significant resources are lost because of poorly written code. But it doesn’t have to be that way.<br /><br />Noted software expert Robert C. Martin presents a revolutionary paradigm with Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship. Martin has teamed up with his colleagues from Object Mentor to distill their best agile practice of cleaning code “on the fly” into a book that will instill within you the values of a software craftsman and make you a better programmer—but only if you work at it.<br /><br />What kind of work will you be doing? You’ll be reading code—lots of code. And you will be challenged to think about what’s right about that code, and what’s wrong with it. More importantly, you will be challenged to reassess your professional values and your commitment to your craft.<br /><br />Clean Code is divided into three parts. The first describes the principles, patterns, and practices of writing clean code. The second part consists of several case studies of increasing complexity. Each case study is an exercise in cleaning up code—of transforming a code base that has some problems into one that is sound and efficient. The third part is the payoff: a single chapter containing a list of heuristics and “smells” gathered while creating the case studies. The result is a knowledge base that describes the way we think when we write, read, and clean code.<br /><br />Readers will come away from this book understanding<br /><br /> * How to tell the difference between good and bad code<br /> * How to write good code and how to transform bad code into good code<br /> * How to create good names, good functions, good objects, and good classes<br /> * How to format code for maximum readability<br /> * How to implement complete error handling without obscuring code logic<br /> * How to unit test and practice test-driven development<br /><br />This book is a must for any developer, software engineer, project manager, team lead, or systems analyst with an interest in producing better code.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://6aff6bbb.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p> <a href="http://www.shareapic.net/ref.php?owner=Peaxh"> <p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.shareapic.net/refads/aff3.gif" border="0" /></p></a><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/ref.php?owner=Peaxh"> </a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-5544194574255243474?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-50089290912211737452009-04-11T18:49:00.000-05:002009-04-11T18:50:16.630-05:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=16076442&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/OReillyWebsiteOptimizationJul2008.jpg" width="289" height="380" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-size: small;">Remember when an optimized website was one that merely didn't take all day to appear?

You'll discover the kinds of gotchas and edge cases that don't exist in simple, toy programs. As you add more tests, you'll learn how to organize your test code and write lucid examples. The result is a series of "smoke tests" team will run on Continuous Integration servers.<br /><br />Next, we'll explore a variety of different testing tips and tricks. You'll employ a series of increasingly random and punishing test monkeys to try to crash programs. Table-driven techniques will show you how to check dozens of different input combinations. See how to use longer acceptance tests (in the form of stories) to represent the way a typical customer would use your program.<br /><br />The book uses examples from Windows, OS X, and cross-platform Java desktop programs as well as Web applications. You'll develop test scripts in Ruby; you don't need to be a Ruby expert, but basic comfort with the language will be helpful.</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://a4f2c926.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p> <a href="http://www.clixncash.com/index.php?ref=Peaxh"> <p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg75/peaxh/Promos/banner1.gif" border="0" /></p></a><a href="http://www.clixncash.com/index.php?ref=Peaxh"> </a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-1317215999695004889?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-39120949809834640922009-03-25T12:59:00.002-06:002009-03-25T13:00:12.544-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=15696439&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/AddisonWesleyOpenGLES20ProgrammingG.jpg" width="289" height="380" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">OpenGL ES 2.0 is the industry’s leading software interface and graphics library for rendering sophisticated 3D graphics on handheld and embedded devices. With OpenGL ES 2.0, the full programmability of shaders is now available on small and portable devices—including cell phones, PDAs, consoles, appliances, and vehicles. However, OpenGL ES differs significantly from OpenGL. Graphics programmers and mobile developers have had very little information about it—until now.<br /><br />In the OpenGL® ES 2.0 Programming Guide, three leading authorities on the Open GL ES 2.0 interface—including the specification’s editor—provide start-to-finish guidance for maximizing the interface’s value in a wide range of high-performance applications. The authors cover the entire API, including Khronos-ratified extensions. Using detailed C-based code examples, they demonstrate how to set up and program every aspect of the graphics pipeline. You’ll move from introductory techniques all the way to advanced per-pixel lighting, particle systems, and performance optimization.<br /><br />Coverage includes:<br /><br /> * Shaders in depth: creating shader objects, compiling shaders, checking for compile errors, attaching shader objects to program objects, and linking final program objects<br /> * The OpenGL ES Shading Language: variables, types, constructors, structures, arrays, attributes, uniforms, varyings, precision qualifiers, and invariance<br /> * Inputting geometry into the graphics pipeline, and assembling geometry into primitives<br /> * Vertex shaders, their special variables, and their use in per-vertex lighting, skinning, and other applications<br /> * Using fragment shaders—including examples of multitexturing, fog, alpha test, and user clip planes<br /> * Fragment operations: scissor test, stencil test, depth test, multisampling, blending, and dithering<br /> * Advanced rendering: per-pixel lighting with normal maps, environment mapping, particle systems, image post-processing, and projective texturing<br /> * Real-world programming challenges: platform diversity, C++ portability, OpenKODE, and platform-specific shader binaries</span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://73b76a08.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p> <a href="http://www.quebec-ptp.com/inscription.php?parrain=Peaxh" target="blank"> <p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.quebec-ptp.com/banbleu.gif" /></p></a><a href="http://www.quebec-ptp.com/inscription.php?parrain=Peaxh" target="blank"> </a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-3912094980983464092?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-15119653838173708242009-03-25T12:59:00.001-06:002009-03-25T12:59:45.165-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=15696438&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/OReillyPythonforUnixandLinuxSystemA.jpg" width="289" height="380" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: center;"> </p> <div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Python is an ideal language for solving problems, especially in Linux and Unix networks. With this pragmatic book, administrators can review various tasks that often occur in the management of these systems, and learn how Python can provide a more efficient and less painful way to handle them.<br /><br />Each chapter in Python for Unix and Linux System Administration presents a particular administrative issue, such as concurrency or data backup, and presents Python solutions through hands-on examples. Once you finish this book, you'll be able to develop your own set of command-line utilities with Python to tackle a wide range of problems. Discover how this language can help you:<br /><br /> * Read text files and extract information<br /> * Run tasks concurrently using the threading and forking options<br /> * Get information from one process to another using network facilities<br /> * Create clickable GUIs to handle large and complex utilities<br /> * Monitor large clusters of machines by interacting with SNMP programmatically<br /> * Master the IPython Interactive Python shell to replace or augment Bash, Korn, or Z-Shell<br /> * Integrate Cloud Computing into your infrastructure, and learn to write a Google App Engine Application<br /> * Solve unique data backup challenges with customized scripts<br /> * Interact with MySQL, SQLite, Oracle, Postgres, Django ORM, and SQLAlchemy<br /><br />With this book, you'll learn how to package and deploy your Python applications and libraries, and write code that runs equally well on multiple Unix platforms.

Paul DuBois and his editors at New Riders have assembled MySQL with a clarity and lucidity that inspires confidence in the subject matter: a (nearly) freely redistributable SQL-interpreting database client/server primarily geared for Unix systems but maintained for Windows platforms as well. What isn't "free" about MySQL (the application) is its server's commercial use; all clients and noncommercial server use are free. DuBois's tome isn't free either, but its list price is modest in light of its value and the value of its namesake.<br /><br />The volume is superbly organized into 12 chapters and 10 appendices and contains a concise table of contents and a comprehensive 50-page index. It is peppered with references to the online HTML documentation that comes with the source and binary distributions (which are available and easy to install in stable rpm and tar releases.)<br /><br />The first third of MySQL is an excellent instruction tool for database newbies; the second third is a detailed reference for MySQL developers; and the last third consists of clearly annotated appendices, including C, Perl (but not Python), and PHP interfaces.<br /><br />Perhaps as an indication of the collective will of the developers of MySQL, DuBois does not separate Windows 95/98/NT design or development specifics from its main discussions. Platform-independent design is a goal, not a reality, and users will have to rely on newsgroups and mailing lists for details. Moreover, security issues are addressed in a mere 18 pages, a large part of which is devoted to standard Unix file and network-access permissions. Next to nothing is mentioned about defense against common hacking strategies, the use of secure shell interfaces, or access encryption.<br /><br />Although it is nearly 800 pages in length, DuBois's book is thankfully not encyclopedic. It is a valuable précis of the MySQL database, and its easy-to-skim look and feel will make it an excellent browse for database experts who want to know what is and is not possible within MySQL, the application. --Peter Leopold --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. </span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://06f22353.linkbucks.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>==> Download <==</strong></span></a></p> <a href="http://bux.to/?r=peaxh"> <p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg75/peaxh/Promos/banner-2.png" /></p></a><a href="http://bux.to/?r=peaxh"> </a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6456578373471809179-5024769085995318527?l=bookspod.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peaxhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17764922385021670175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456578373471809179.post-25953106640787564752009-03-25T12:56:00.000-06:002009-03-25T12:58:50.943-06:00<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=15696435&amp;owner=Peaxh" target="_blank"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/titilo/Blogs/Books%20Drop/AddisonWesleyRubyPhrasebookSep2008.jpg" width="289" height="450" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Essential Code and Commands<br /><br />Ruby Phrasebook gives you the code you need to quickly and effectively work with Ruby, one of the fastest-growing languages in the world thanks to popular new Ruby technologies like Ruby on Rails.<br /><br />Concise and Accessible<br /><br />Easy to carry and easy to use–lets you ditch all those bulky books for one portable pocket guide<br /><br />Flexible and Functional<br /><br />Packed with more than 100 customizable code snippets–so you can readily code functional Ruby in just about any situation<br /><br />Jason Clinton uses Ruby daily in system administration and development for Advanced Clustering Technologies, a Linux Beowulf cluster integrator.
