Oakland Park was named for the massive stand of trees that lined the Middle River. Our first permanent settlers were the Whidby family, who came from Georgia to South Florida in 1901, when the area was known as Colahatchee. By 1918, other farming families had moved into the area, and bean and pepper fields were abundant. In 1923, a Miami development company initiated the Oakland Park subdivision with one of the biggest barbecues ever held in Broward County, with an estimated attendance of 5,000 people from Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties. The city was incorporated first as Floranada in

This book presents methods for analyzing data using parametric nonlinear regression models. Using examples from experiments in agronomy and biochemistry, it shows how to apply the methods. Aimed at scientists who are not familiar with statistical theory, it concentrates on presenting the methods in an intuitive way rather than developing the theoretical grounds. The book includes methods based on classical nonlinear regression theory and more modern methods such as the bootstrap that have proven effective in practice. The examples are analyzed with the software program nls2 implemented in S-PL

This book explores how the various disciplines of law and linguistics can help us understand the nature of legal language - both oral and written - and how it might be improved and clarified. It presents and examines the most recent research and theories, along with practical guidance on how to avoid obscurity in legal drafting and legal interpretation at national level and on the international scene.The aims of the book are thus two folds. The first is to critically reach a nexus between the disciplines of law and language with respect to the debates on the use of clarity in legal discourse.

Originally published in 1987, Joel Sternfeld’s now-classic view of America is here remastered, redesigned, and reprinted at a larger, brighter, truer scale. Finally, photography and offset printing techniques have caught up with Sternfeld’s eye, and this new edition of American Prospects succeeds in presenting Sternfeld’s most seminal work as it has always meant to be shown. A specially-commissioned essay by Kerry Brougher, Chief Curator at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, considers the historical context in which Sternfeld was working and the pivotal role that American Prospec
