Football is a game of numbers--fourth and inches, the three-man rush, a two point conversion, first down. Even with the obvious numbers in the statistics, rules and game situations, the players' uniform numbers themselves have become part of professional football and its lore. NFL players, like modern-day gladiators, are fitted head-to-toe in protective gear, obscuring even their faces from their most loyal fans. They have become largely identifiable through their uniform numbers. You cannot conjure up Larry Csonka without seeing the number 39 crashing through the line of scrimmage, or recall Lawrence Taylor without imagining the fear his 56 inspired in opposing quarterbacks. This comprehensive reference work lists all 32 current franchises of the NFL and includes brief team histories, statistics and interesting facts. Each chapter ends with an all-time numerical roster listing the numbers 1 through 99 (in some cases beginning with 00) and everyone, from Hall-of-Famer to replacement player, who has ever worn the corresponding number for that club. Four appendices are included.
Magnesium batteries, in particular rechargeable non-aqueous systems, are an area of intense research as they present a sustainable energy storage system that has the potential to outperform Li-ion batteries. The book covers scientific and technical challenges, bringing together contributions in the field of anodes, cathodes, electrolytes and particularly promising systems such as the Mg-S cell. Edited by a leading name in the field, this title will appeal to students and researchers both new to and already working in battery materials across chemistry, physics, engineering and materials science.
Just when one would think the Pack family had gone through enough. “Men of Their Own Standards”, the awaited sequel to “Wake Me When It’s Over”. is destined to release more drama. Four years has passed and after all that Reverend Timothy Pack and his family has been through, he just knew the talk had ceased and the people of Washington County would move on to their next conversational piece. But nothing would prepare him for his next battle. When not in the pulpit of St. Mark church, street ministering was Reverend Pack’s passion. Knowing that another young man’s life was not lost to the streets, gave him great joy and happiness. Nevertheless, the one day he had ministered so m...
This symposium was dedicated to the significant and ground breaking accomplishments of Robert A. Osteryoung in the area of molten salts and ionic liquids. This symposium provided an international and interdisciplinary forum centered on innovative basic and applied research performed in molten salts and ionic liquids. Contributed papers were solicited in all areas of biology, chemistry, electrochemistry, electrochemical engineering, and physics related to molten salt research.
