Collision
There is no rose without a thorn. There is no passion without torment. Vanessa Clark, a second-year college student, has a visceral love of books and rain and an unbreakable bond with her best friends.Marked by her parents' difficult divorce, she found comfort in Travis, apparently the good guy that all mothers—including hers—would like next to their daughter.With him she hopes to be able to build a happiness that she has been missing for too long now.After two years, however, even that love seems to have cracked and only rubble remains in Vanessa's heart.At least until, in class, she meets new classmate Thomas Collins for the first time. With a body covered in tattoos, green eyes in which it is all too easy to get lost, and a troubled past, Thomas is an explosive mix of charm and arrogance.He and Vanessa, so different from each other yet deep down so similar, fit together like pieces of a puzzle, giving life to a tormented relationship, made up of moments of passion and glimpses of tenderness, furious quarrels and reconciliations. But Vanessa wants more, she dreams of true, romantic and all-encompassing love, the kind of love story told in the novels that she never gets tired of reading.Thomas, on the other hand, shuns every bond, feeling as though a perennial tangle of thorns is agitated in his chest. And yet, if understanding each other is difficult, parting is impossible. This Work has been translated with a grant from the Centre for Books and Reading of the Italian Ministry of Culture.

Thinking Kink : The Collision of BDSM, Feminism and Popular Culture
When the mildly kink-themed trilogy 50 Shades of Grey became popular reading in 2012, the media speculated that feminism was in reverse, as the public went mad over bondage and discipline, domination and submission and sadomasochism (BDSM).The novels provoked academic debate about BDSM and the issues it raises for feminists.Is the female dominant truly powerful or is she just another objectified body? Does lesbian BDSM avoid the problematic nature of heterosexual kink, or is it actually more subject to the "male gaze" of feminist theory? And what is it about kink that has creators of pop culture--from Anne Rice to the producers of Scrubs--using it to attract audiences? Examining the tropes of kink in books, TV shows, film and the music industry, this work addresses these and other questions that depictions of BDSM raise for the feminist audience.The author interweaves her own research and experiences in the BDSM scene with the subculture's portrayal in the media. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

What is the difference between a real collision and an elastic collision?
A real collision involves the loss of kinetic energy due to the conversion of energy into other forms, such as heat or sound. In contrast, an elastic collision is a theoretical scenario where no kinetic energy is lost, and the total kinetic energy of the system is conserved. In an elastic collision, the objects involved bounce off each other without any loss of energy, while in a real collision, some energy is dissipated as a result of the collision.
-
What is the difference between a perfectly inelastic collision and an inelastic collision?
In a perfectly inelastic collision, the two objects stick together after colliding and move as one mass. This means that kinetic energy is not conserved in a perfectly inelastic collision. In contrast, in an inelastic collision, the objects may deform or bounce off each other, but they do not stick together. Kinetic energy is also not conserved in an inelastic collision, but the objects do not move together as one mass.
-
What is an inelastic collision?
An inelastic collision is a type of collision in which kinetic energy is not conserved. In an inelastic collision, the objects involved stick together or deform, resulting in some of the initial kinetic energy being transformed into other forms of energy such as heat, sound, or deformation. This means that the total kinetic energy of the system is not the same before and after the collision. In an inelastic collision, momentum is still conserved, but the kinetic energy is not.
-
What is inelastic collision dynamics?
In an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is not conserved, and some of the initial kinetic energy is transformed into other forms of energy, such as thermal or sound energy. This results in the objects sticking together after the collision, or deforming and losing some of their initial kinetic energy. Inelastic collisions are characterized by a decrease in kinetic energy and the objects involved experiencing a change in shape or structure. The dynamics of inelastic collisions can be described using the principles of conservation of momentum and conservation of kinetic energy.

Restoring Heritage Grains : The Culture, Biodiversity, Resilience, and Cuisine of Ancient Wheats
Including recipes for baking with EinkornWheat is the most widely grown crop on our planet, yet industrial breeders have transformed this ancient staff of life into a commodity of yield and profit—witness the increase in gluten intolerance and 'wheat belly’. Modern wheat depends on synthetic fertilizer and herbicides that damage our health, land, water, and environment.Fortunately, heritage ‘landrace' wheats that evolved over millennia in the organic fields of traditional farms do not need bio-chemical intervention to yield bountifully, are gluten-safe, have rich flavor and high nutrition.Yet the robust, majestic wheats that nourished our ancestors are on the verge of extinction. In Restoring Heritage Grains, author Eli Rogosa of the Heritage Grain Conservancy, invites readers to restore forgotten wheats such as delicious gluten-safe einkorn that nourished the first Neolithic farmers, emmer—the grain of ancient Israel, Egypt, and Rome that is perfect for pasta and flatbreads, rare durums that are drought-tolerant and high in protein, and many more little known wheat species, each of which have a lineage intertwined with the human species and that taste better than any modern wheat. Restoring Heritage Grains combines the history of grain growing and society, in-depth practical advice on landrace wheat husbandry, wheat folk traditions and mythology, and guidelines for the Neolithic diet with traditional recipes for rustic bread, pastry and beer.Discover the ancient grains that may be one of the best solutions to hunger today, and provide resilience for our future.

Authenticity in North America : Place, Tourism, Heritage, Culture and the Popular Imagination
This interdisciplinary book addresses the highly relevant debates about authenticity in North America, providing a contemporary re-examination of American culture, tourism and commodification of place.Blending social sciences and humanities research skills, it formulates an examination of the geography of authenticity in North America, and brings together studies of both rurality and urbanity across the country, exposing the many commonalities of these different landscapes.Relph stated that nostalgic places are inauthentic, yet within this work several chapters explore how festivals and visitor attractions, which cultivate place heritage appeal, are authenticated by tourists and communities, creating a shared sense of belonging.In a world of hyperreal simulacra, post-truth and fake news, this book bucks the trend by demonstrating that authenticity can be found everywhere: in a mouthful of food, in a few bars of a Beach Boys song, in a statue of a troll, in a diffuse magical atmosphere, in the weirdness of the ungentrified streets.Written by a range of leading experts, this book offers a contemporary view of American authenticity, tourism, identity and culture.It will be of great interest to upper-level students, researchers and academics in Tourism, Geography, History, Cultural Studies, American Studies and Film Studies.

Is the central inelastic and elastic collision a special form of the force collision?
Yes, the central inelastic and elastic collisions can be considered as special forms of force collisions. In both types of collisions, the force between the two objects involved plays a crucial role in determining the outcome of the collision. In an inelastic collision, the force causes the objects to stick together and move as a single unit, while in an elastic collision, the force causes the objects to bounce off each other without any loss of kinetic energy. Therefore, the force collision can be seen as a broader category that encompasses both inelastic and elastic collisions.
-
Is the hash function collision-free?
Yes, the hash function is collision-free. This means that it is designed to minimize the likelihood of two different inputs producing the same hash value. While it is theoretically possible for collisions to occur, a well-designed hash function will have a very low probability of this happening. This property is important for ensuring the integrity and security of data in applications such as cryptography and data storage.
-
How can I perform collision handling?
Collision handling can be performed by detecting when two objects in a game or simulation come into contact with each other. This can be done using collision detection algorithms, such as bounding box or pixel-perfect collision detection. Once a collision is detected, the objects involved can be moved or have their properties adjusted to simulate the effects of the collision, such as bouncing off each other or triggering a specific action. Additionally, collision handling can also involve resolving any overlap between the objects to prevent them from intersecting with each other.

What is a rear-end collision?
A rear-end collision occurs when one vehicle crashes into the back of another vehicle. This type of accident often happens when the following vehicle is unable to stop in time to avoid hitting the vehicle in front, such as in cases of sudden braking or tailgating. Rear-end collisions can result in damage to the vehicles involved, as well as injuries to the occupants, especially those in the vehicle that was struck from behind. These accidents are often caused by driver distraction, speeding, or following too closely.
