What is the relationship between termites and sin? Cookies and religious denominations? A hidden canoe paddle and strengthening one's faith? Sean, Jerry, Lonnie, and Benjamin are challenged to find these answers and more as they become - Challengers From Camp Hope.
This story is an in-depth look into my life as a teen dad, teen alcoholic, and teen drug addict who dropped out of high school and faced near-death experiences. With no father and no real relationship with my mom, I lived a life of utter destruction but then turned my life around to become an award-winning motivational speaker, morning radio talk show host, red carpet correspondent for an independent filmmaker, husband, and the best dad I can be with twenty years of sobriety under my belt with no relapses.
The book summarizes the current state of the know-how in the field of perovskite materials: synthesis, characterization, properties, and applications. Most chapters include a review on the actual knowledge and cutting-edge research results. Thus, this book is an essential source of reference for scientists with research fields in energy, physics, chemistry and materials. It is also a suitable reading material for graduate students.
A guide to ActionScript programming covers such topics as conditionals and loops, functions, datatypes, interfaces, event handling, namespaces, XML, Flash, programmic animation, and bitmap programming.
This book offers readers an opportunity to ride the historic Humboldt Wagon Road from Chico to Susanville through images that have been collected since the 1860s. Many never-before-published photographs and oral histories tell a story of people who established what has been called this "small corner of the West." In the 1850s, John Bidwell, a California pioneer, agriculturist, businessman, and politician, envisioned a freight and passenger route that would connect San Francisco, the Sacramento River, and his newly established community of Chico. He wanted it to cross the mountains to the gold and silver mines in Idaho and Nevada. Bidwell financed, constructed, and opened the road for horses, wagons, stagecoaches, and eventually trucks and automobiles. From the Civil War era until the present, the road has carried everything from lumber to tourists.
Everyone and everything belongs in our world. Each has its place in creation. However made - perfect or less than so in the eyes of the beholder - no one and nothing is an accident. The lesson learned within reminds the reader that all persons and things have their place in God's crafting, regardless of one's attitude. "Explores the dignity of each one of us within a lovely Christmas setting." - Elaine Babbish "Never have I read a brief summary of God's eyes and inclusion of all creation so praisefully and gracefully on our fragile, evergreen Earth." - Jeff Mott
This book is aimed at graduate students, post docs and senior researchers with preliminary expertise in materials physics or chemistry, and with an interest in the physical and chemical properties of 4d- and 5d transition metal oxides, especially ruthenates and iridates. The 4d- and 5d-transition metal oxides are among the most current and interesting quantum materials. This book reviews recent experimental and theoretical evidence that the physical and structural properties of these materials are decisively influenced by strong spin-orbit interactions that compete with comparable Coulomb, magnetic exchange and crystalline electric field interactions. This competition often leads to unusual ...
The continuous evolution and development of experimental techniques is at the basis of any fundamental achievement in modern physics. Strongly correlated systems (SCS), more than any other, need to be investigated through the greatest variety of experimental techniques in order to unveil and crosscheck the numerous and puzzling anomalous behaviors characterizing them. The study of SCS fostered the improvement of many old experimental techniques, but also the advent of many new ones just invented in order to analyze the complex behaviors of these systems. Many novel materials, with functional properties emerging from macroscopic quantum behaviors at the frontier of modern research in physics,...
