quicken breaking bad: Breaking Bad and Philosophy David R. Koepsell, Robert Arp, 2012-06-20 Breaking Bad, hailed by Stephen King, Chuck Klosterman, and many others as the best of all TV dramas, tells the story of a man whose life changes because of the medical death sentence of an advanced cancer diagnosis. The show depicts his metamorphosis from inoffensive chemistry teacher to feared drug lord and remorseless killer. Driven at first by the desire to save his family from destitution, he risks losing his family altogether because of his new life of crime. In defiance of the tradition that viewers demand a TV character who never changes, Breaking Bad is all about the process of change, with each scene carrying forward the morphing of Walter White into the terrible Heisenberg. Can a person be transformed as the result of a few key life choices? Does everyone have the potential to be a ruthless criminal? How will we respond to the knowledge that we will be dead in six months? Is human life subject to laws as remorseless as chemical equations? When does injustice validate brutal retaliation? Why are drug addicts unsuitable for operating the illegal drug business? How can TV viewers remain loyal to a series where the hero becomes the villain? Does Heisenberg’s Principle of Uncertainty rule our destinies? In Breaking Bad and Philosophy, a hand-picked squad of professional thinkers investigate the crimes of Walter White, showing how this story relates to the major themes of philosophy and the major life decisions facing all of us. |
quicken breaking bad: Masculinity in Breaking Bad Bridget Roussell Cowlishaw, 2015-03-25 Following on author Peter Rollins' motto If it isn't popular, it isn't culture, this collection of new essays considers Vince Gilligan's award-winning television series Breaking Bad as a landmark of Western culture--comparable to the works of Shakespeare and Dickens in their time--that merits scholarly attention from those who would understand early the 21st century zeitgeist. The essayists explore the series as a critique of American concepts of masculinity, with Walter White discussed as a father archetype--provider, protector, author of a legacy--and as a Machiavellian warrior on the capitalist battleground. Other topics include the mutual exclusivity of intellect and masculinity in American culture, and the dramatic irony as White's rationales for his criminal life are gradually revealed as a lie. In round table chapters, contributors discuss the show's reception, fans who root for Team Walt, Skyler-hating and Breaking Bad as a feminist text. |

Our daily routines are woven by habits, acting as invisible puppeteers that control nearly half of our actions. Imagine then, the power that lies in mastering these habits, in bending them to work for us rather than against us. That's exactly what this book aims to achieve. Uncover the science of habits with insights from psychology, behavioral science, and neuroscience. Understand how habits are formed, maintained, and most importantly, altered. Explore the critical role of willpower and stress in habit formation. Learn about Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and how it can help in breaking bad habits. Discover how to be more mindful of your habits, opening a window to self-awareness and self-improvement. Breaking a bad habit is rarely about eliminating it entirely, but rather, it's about replacing it with a healthier, more beneficial habit. I introduce the concept of 'bridge habits' as a unique strategy to facilitate this change. By using the intermediary habit as a steppingstone, you can ease the transition from old, harmful habits to new, healthier ones. Practical examples and actionable tips make this concept easy to understand and even easier to implement. We examine how understanding the root cause of a habit can become the key to breaking it. Get equipped to handle situations that trigger bad habits, and learn how to deal with the potential setbacks that may come with breaking them. This book isn't just about theory; it's about empowering you with practical tools to reshape your life. Every page is designed to be a steppingstone on your journey towards creating better habits, making better decisions, and living a better life. Whether you're struggling with a persistent bad habit, aiming to cultivate a new good habit, or simply curious about the power of habits, this book is your concise, introductory guide.

quicken breaking bad: By the Rivers of Babylon Nelson DeMille, 2003-06-01 Lod Airport, Israel: Two Concorde jets take off for a U.N. conference that will finally bring peace to the Middle East. Covered by F-14 fighters, accompanied by security men, the planes carry warriors, pacifists, lovers, enemies, dignitaries -- and a bomb planted by a terrorist mastermind. Suddenly they're forced to crash-land at an ancient desert site. Here, with only a handful of weapons, the men and women of the peace mission must make a desperate stand against an army of crack Palestinian commandos -- while the Israeli authorities desperately attempt a rescue mission.

quicken breaking bad: Reality Mining Nathan Eagle, Kate Greene, 2014-08 In this book, the authors explore the positive potential of big data, showing the ways in which the analysis of big data (reality mining) can be used to improve human systems as varied as political polling and disease tracking, while considering user privacy. They describe reality mining at five different levels: the individual, the neighborhood and organization, the city, the nation, and the world. For each level, they offer a nontechnical explanation of data collection methods and describe applications and systems that have been or could be built. These include a mobile app that helps smokers quit smoking; a workplace knowledge system; the use of GPS, Wi-Fi, and mobile phone data to manage and predict traffic flows; and the analysis of social media to track the spread of disease. The authors argue that big data, used respectfully and responsibly, can help people live better, healthier, and happier lives. -- |

Researchers use these statistical methods to examine the choices that consumers, households, firms, and other agents make. Each of the major models is covered: logit, generalized extreme value, or GEV (including nested and cross-nested logits), probit, and mixed logit, plus a variety of specifications that build on these basics. Simulation-assisted estimation procedures are investigated and compared, including maximum stimulated likelihood, method of simulated moments, and method of simulated scores.

quicken breaking bad: Beautiful Outlaw John Eldredge, 2011-10-12 Reading the Gospels without knowing the personality of Jesus is like watching television with the sound turned off. The result is a dry, two dimensional person doing strange, undecipherable things. In BEAUTIFUL OUTLAW, John Eldredge removes the religious varnish to help readers discover stunning new insights into the humanity of Jesus. He was accused of breaking the law, keeping bad company, heavy drinking. Of being the devil himself. He was so compelling and dangerous they had to kill him. But others loved him passionately. He had a sense of humor. His generosity was scandalous. His anger made enemies tremble. He'd say the most outrageous things. He was definitely not the Jesus of the stained glass. In the author's winsome, narrative approach, he breaks Jesus out of the typical stereotypes, just as he set masculinity free in his book, Wild at Heart. By uncovering the real Jesus, readers are welcomed into the rich emotional life of Christ. All of the remarkable qualities of Jesus burst like fireworks with color and brilliance because of his humanity. Eldredge goes on to show readers how they can experience this Jesus in their lives every day. This book will quicken readers' worship, and deepen their intimacy with Jesus. |
