"America is great, not because the people are great, but because God is great. Read Dr. Stebbins' book, Wake Up America--or Die YOU Must Save America and the Family. You'll be glad you did " Josh McDowell"What is the greatest threat to America's freedom today? In my opinion, it is the breakup of families. Throughout history, the unity of the family has been the backbone of all nations' strength. Read Dr. Stebbins book and you'll see what I mean. GOD must be America's number one priority " Coach Bobby Bowden (Retired), Florida State Seminoles"By boldly brandishing the banner of faith in the arena of cultural restoration, this important volume reveals the road map to recovery and brilliantly inspires each of us to play our part. Every page carries valuable insights which will transform every reader." Rabbi Daniel Lapin"We can think of nothing more urgent at this critical hour than for believers to possess a Biblical worldview. Dr. Lloyd Stebbins hits the nail on the head with this powerful, educational, and insightful book. We encourage people to not just read what he's written, but to devour it " David and Jason Benham"Dr. Lloyd Stebbins, with the unapologetic fury of a saint, dares to tell the truth about the overwhelming forces in our society that are moving us further and further away from God's truth. Wake Up America or Die is a sobering wake-up call for all who cherish traditional values. This book also offers real hope because when our problems come sharply into focus, so do the solutions." Dr. Jeff Winter, Pastor"Dr. Stebbins has written perhaps the most lucid book "destroying the wisdom of the wise and frustrating the intelligence of the intelligent" by presenting a blueprint for the renewal of human society. The secularists will be flabbergasted, but the faithful will recognize this continuation of the tradition of Kuyper, Chesterton, Schaeffer, and Colson." Dr. Eric Dent, University Professor"Like the Prophet Jeremiah, warning of impending doom, and lamenting over the consequences, Dr. Lloyd H. Stebbins hits the proverbial nail on the head in his book, 'Wake Up America--or Die YOU Must Save America and the Family.' Blessed with an abundance of charts, graphs, and statistics, coupled with wisdom and humor, Dr. Stebbins immerses the reader in a realistic discussion of where we are, where we need to go, and the hope we have in our Great Creator and Omnipotent God. I especially appreciate how he looks to the Torah, in the Old Testament, for moral guidance and wisdom. I highly recommend this book to those seeking truth and wanting answers to the life's predicaments." Yossi Laster, Messianic Rabbi Lloyd H. Stebbins, Ph.D. has been a lifelong Christian active in many ministries. In the private sector, he has worked in several industries including over 20 years as an environmental consultant. Since then, he has taught both science courses and MBA courses in several universities. His publishing experience includes a doctoral dissertation, hundreds of articles for periodicals, and two recent books entitled, America: Dark Slide--Bright Future, and Target America--Target You

Volume 32 of Reviews in Mineralogy introduces the basic concepts of melt physics and relaxation theory as applied to silicate melts, then to describe the current state of experimental and computer simulation techniques for exploring the detailed atomic structure and dynamic processes which occur at high temperature, and finally to consider the relationships between melt structure, thermodynamic properties and rheology within these liquids. These fundamental relations serve to bridge the extrapolation from often highly simplified melt compositions studied in the laboratory to the multicomponent systems found in nature. This volume focuses on the properties of simple model silicate systems, which are usually volatile-free. The behavior of natural magmas has been summarized in a previous Short Course volume (Nicholls and Russell, editors, 1990: Reviews in Mineralogy, Vol. 24), and the effect of volatiles on magmatic properties in yet another (Carroll and Holloway, editors, 1994: Vol. 30).
The Mineralogical Society of America sponsored a short course for which this was the text at Stanford University December 9 and 10, 1995, preceding the Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union and MSA in San Fransisco, with about 100 professionals and graduate students in attendance.

Описание: We live in an information-saturated environment and spend far too much time searching, surfing, skimming, contributing, and organizing the information in our lives. We spend too little time immersing ourselves in reliable high quality information. We are often so buried in information and strapped for time that we grab information like it was fast food, without bothering to evaluate its quality. Finding Reliable Information Online: Adventures of an Information Sleuth uses stories or "information adventures" to illustrate the best approaches to searching for information and to help us develop our aptitude for locating high quality resources in a rapidly changing digital environment that is becoming proficient at monopolizing our attention with useless or unreliable information. This book is about taking charge of the search process and not handing over the reins to search engines like Google, Bing, or Yahoo to dictate what information we consume. Each chapter focuses on a quest for different types of information while digging deeper into the complexities of finding credible places to look for information and ways to think about evaluating it. As the Internet evolves and becomes more sophisticated, our strategies for finding and evaluating information need to evolve as well. The stories in this book range from investigating challenging research questions to exploring health issues and everyday life questions like finding a reliable restaurant or product review. These chapters go beyond the simple and more mechanical checklist approach to evaluating information, though these factors are also discussed.

Описание: The world of non-work obligations - defined as disagreeable activities that are neither work nor leisure - is a territory of social life that has largely been ignored by scholars of work and leisure alike. The exception to this rule is Robert A. Stebbins, who over the years has written extensively on the significance of non-work obligations and the mundane and often disagreeable tasks that we are all compelled to face in our daily lives.
In this new book, Stebbins brings together years of writing and research on this topic to forcefully argue that the current research interest in work-life balance can no longer afford to ignore the effects that non-work obligation has on it. He contends that, whether we like it or not, non-work obligations bear heavily on both our work and leisure. Having to deal with disagreeable tasks and objectionable people on a daily basis, without the support of any outside agency, can seriously undermine our well-being, and it is only through recourse to voluntary simplicity that we can hope to limit the harmful impact of non-work obligations.
Written both as a guide to happy living and as a powerful rejoinder to conventional orthodoxy in the fields of leisure and work studies, the book is essential reading for both the general reader and scholars of leisure, consumer, work and happiness studies.
