Super Bomb

Super Bomb unveils the story of the events leading up to President Harry S. Truman's 1950 decision to develop a "super," or hydrogen, bomb. That fateful decision and its immediate consequences are detailed in a diverse and complete account built on newly released archives and previously hidden contemporaneous interviews with more than sixty political, military, and scientific figures who were involved in the decision. Ken Young and Warner R. Schilling present the expectations, hopes, and fears of the key individuals who lobbied for and against developing the H-bomb. They portray the conflicts that arose over the H-bomb as rooted in the distinct interests of the Atomic Energy Commission, the ...

In spring of 1985, Dave Worrell, a police detective on Canada’s Sunshine Coast, received a call: a young female provincial ward reported that she had been sexually assualted by her school principal. Dave was no stranger to investigating allegations like these, but as he dove deeper into the suspect’s history, it soon became clear that Robert Olav Noyes’s actions were even more far-reaching and sinister than anyone could have imagined. The Noyes case is infamous in British Columbia not only for the nature of the crime, but for the number of victims and the length of time he had been perpetrating; although he was ultimately charged with nineteen counts of sexual assault, he admitted to a...

Biography of Justin Thadd Kludzinski I was born in a small section of a big city of Chicago on the south side called the Bush on May 5, 1952. The area was near the steel plant where my Dad worked as a welder. The 1950s Chicago was divided in complete ethnic districts and ours was Polish. I went to St. Michaels Grammar school. Ever since I was small I made friends fast. If I were to start a gang, I would probably have over a million members by now. I always was a leader, and I came up with new games and things to do as a kid. I listened well and tried to always stay in at a glass half full mentality. I went to CVS high school where I learned electronics which helped me when I was in the Army. I did very well, and I became the 32G20 fix crypto Pro from Dover. I got additional specialty pay and the pay was good an extra $50.00 a month. I then got married to my beautiful fiance Maria and had two great kids Jessica and Matthew. I was really sick in 1993 with AML. I learned to see people more as individuals and that made me a better person. I wrote The Array for the people to continue to support the USA, and to hold firm in their belief in God after 9/11.

As Long as the Rivers Run

In past treaties, the Aboriginal people of Canada surrendered title to their lands in return for guarantees that their traditional ways of life would be protected. Since the 1950s, governments have reneged on these commitments in order to acquire more land and water for hydroelectric development. James B. Waldram examines this controversial topic through an analysis of the politics of hydroelectric dam construction in the Canadian Northwest, focusing on three Aboriginal communities in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. He argues that little has changed in our treatment of Aboriginal people in the past hundred years, when their resources are still appropriated by the government “for the common good.” Using archival materials, personal interviews and largely inaccessible documents and letters, Waldram highlights the clear parallel between the treatment of Aboriginal people in the negotiations and agreements that accompany hydro development with the treaty and scrip processes of the past century.

"His first book was called Invisible City and has become quite a legend. Twelve years after this initial success, the American photographer Ken Schles now presents his second book of photographs - The Geometry of Innocence. With his photographs, Schles approaches the omnipresence of social structures, which - pushed by the flood of media images - are undergoing permanent, almost frantic change. In a veritable visual roller coaster he sends his viewers onto city streets, playgrounds, into pubs and bars, puts them into a police helicopter and takes them to death row, hospital rooms and police interventions. There is no "story", only a breathless sequence of pictures condensed into thematic clusters - a highly intense visual experience soon holding the viewer spell-bound. Ken Schles is aware that the meaning of the photographic image is relative. But he did his book anyway, and with The Geometry of Innocence, he succeeded in creating a bold, highly sophisticated picture book."--Publisher.

The Transmission of Anglo-Norman

The Transmission of Anglo-Norman

This investigation contributes to issues in the study of second language transmission by considering the well-documented historical case of Anglo-Norman. Within a few generations of the establishment of this variety, its phonology diverged sharply from that of continental French, yet core syntactic distinctions continued to be reliably transmitted. The dissociation of phonology from syntax transmission is related to the age of exposure to the language in the experience of ordinary users of the language. The input provided to children acquiring language in a naturalistic communicative setting, even though one of a school institution, enabled them to acquire target-like syntactic properties of the inherited variety. In addition, it allowed change to take place along the lines of transmission by incrementation. A linguistic environment combining the 'here-and-now' aspects of ordinary first language acquisition with the growing cognitive complexity of an educational meta-language appears to have been adequate for this variety to be transmitted as a viable entity that encoded the public life of England for centuries.
