Kick Start

When Mitch Harding makes an impulse buy, he really goes big. He spends his entire savings on a wrecked dirt bike after witnessing a rider crash it at an Endurocross race. He is now the proud owner of a used bike, one that needs a lot of work. With the help of his uncle, an ex-pro rider, and new friend Kelsey, a championship rider herself, they get the bike up and running. But a bet with the previous owner threatens to strip Mitch of his hard-earned vehicle. Whoever wins the next race gets to keep the bike. Mitch is determined to win. But partway through the race he discovers Kelsey lying on the trail, her bike on its side. With serious injuries and no way to get help, Kelsey has no choice but to ride out. But as Mitch and Kelsey push to get off the mountain, the path to safety gets more complicated.

Tom's story of stamina and faith is a story for everyone. No matter your background, age, or obstacles in life, you can overcome your past and Kick Start your future.

1969, a time of rebellion. I joined the Barons MC. This is that story through the 1970's, the men, the women, and the cops. We stopped the feds from blackmailing the states into requiring helmet laws. We surrounded the U.S. Capital Building two deep in Harleys and outlaws. How we did it. This is some of what I experienced and witnessed. Times were wild, fast and tough- so were we. I loved it This is that true story....

After a classically structured crash-course on the C# language and Mono's own compiler, the authors reach down deeper to subjects like threads, network programming, security, database interaction, XML, and more.

In 2005, recent graduates Alex Herman, Paul Matthews, and Andrew Feindel realized they werent entirely sure where they were going in life. Then they had an idea. Over the next two years, they interviewed 70 well-known Canadians and asked them how they got started. The answers they found were not always what they expected. Kickstart profiles over 30 prominent Canadians, including professional athletes (former CFL star Norman Kwong), TV personalities (Valerie Pringle), Native leaders (Matthew Coon Come), and former prime ministers (Brian Mulroney). Their collective wisdom, offered in their own words, just might help readers "kickstart" their own lives and careers.

"XQuery Kick Start" delivers a concise introduction to the XQuery standard, and useful implementation advice for developers needing to put it into practice. The book starts by explaining the role of XQuery in the XML family of specifications, and its relationship with XPath. The authors then explain the specification in detail, describing the semantics and data model, before moving to examples using XQuery to manipulate XML databases and document storage systems. Later chapters discuss Java implementations of XQuery and development tools that facilitate the development of Web sites with XQuery. This book is up to date with the latest XQuery specifications, and includes coverage of new features for extending the XQuery language.

MicroPython is the recreated version of Python 3 that runs in the memory-restricted microcontrollers with a minimum of 256KB of ROM and 16KB of RAM. MicroPython supports chips like ESP32, ESP8266, STM32, nRF52, W600, etc. MicroPython follows Python 3 syntax which makes it easy to programme for microcontrollers. The hardware APIs are capable of handling GPIO pins in microcontrollers. In this course, we discuss the ESP32 dev module as the main controller which has a high level of flexibility in connecting with sensors, on-chip capabilities with onboard WiFi. The ebook includes links to YouTube videos ( only important videos) and a code bundle(link to google drive).
