Paradise Found at Long Last
This is the third and final part of the author’s autobiography, and it begins where the second volume “The Search For Happily Ever After” ended, at New Years 1986. The family’s tour of duty in Japan is coming to an end and the big questions are where they will go next and what their jobs will be like when they get there. Chris is off to the 2nd Space Wing to begin that unit’s history as an active unit at the newly constructed Falcon Air Force Base, a dozen miles east of Colorado Springs, one of the couple’s favorite spots to live. Wanda is off to school to enter a new career field, hopefully more suited to her than when she attempted to be a military historian like her husband. E...
Where Is Happily Ever After
Christopher Scharping is beginning his fourth career. After a long Air Force career, fi rst as a medic and then as an Air Force Historian for the majority of his 20+ years of active duty, he worked for the US Postal Service in Buffalo, NY for a decade before becoming a History and Language Arts teacher in Florida. Now, he has turned his talents to his own writing. Since childhood in a small town in western New York State near Buffalo, he had always dreamed of traveling around the world and of fi nding a true love that would lead to “Happily Ever After”. The Air Force provided the means for world travel, which is prolifi cally illustrated in this book and in the next. The “love” proved to be much more diffi cult to attain and keep. He and his lovely wife Catherine currently live in Panama City, Florida and dream of returning to Colorado one day to live there again. As John Muir once said, “The Mountains Are Calling; I Must Go!”

Givin’ the People What They Want
In 1920, the US government, at the request mostly of a new army of female voters in America, turned off the tap that had served Americans cold beer and liquor. The Volstead Act made the sale of alcohol illegal throughout the forty-eight states. A nation surrounded by water rose up to provide. Liquor came ashore from all directions: the Pacific Coast, the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean, the Atlantic Coast, and across the Great Lakes from Canada. Our story looks at the smuggling from Canada across Lake Ontario. Since colonial times, liquor had been brought legally and illegally, usually to sidestep the paying of taxes on the products. Now it was brought into the country to provide what the gove...
Expanding the Lexicon
The creation of new lexical units and patterns has been studied in different research frameworks, focusing on either system-internal or system-external aspects, from which no comprehensive view has emerged. The volume aims to fill this gap by studying dynamic processes in the lexicon – understood in a wide sense as not being necessarily limited to the word level – by bringing together approaches directed to morphological productivity as well as approaches analyzing general types of lexical innovation and the role of discourse-related factors. The papers deal with ongoing changes as well as with historical processes of change in different languages and reflect on patterns and specific subtypes of lexical innovation as well as on their external conditions and the speakers’ motivations for innovating. Moreover, the diffusion and conventionalization of innovations will be addressed. In this way, the volume contributes to understanding the complex interplay of structural, cognitive and functional factors in the lexicon as a highly dynamic domain.
