Thanks to very peculiar style and theology, Pg was identified as far back as 1869 by Theodor Nöldeke and remains one of the last pillars of Pentateuch research after the fall of the Wellhausen model. Its existence is rarely doubted, but its extent is debated. Does it end already in Exodus (Otto, Pola, Bauks) or does it go as far as Deuteronomy (Noth, Frevel) or even into Joshua (Lohfink, Knauf)? The end determines Pg's notion of the land and its conquest, important subjects today for the formation of the Pentateuch (was there first a Hexateuch?). The 364-day perpetual calendar offers a reliable criterion to identify Pg within the final text of the Hexateuch because the simple mathematic of ...
" ... I inherited Revolutionary War letters which various citizens had written. The main character is the obscure Rev. Andrew Eliot of Fairfield Connecticut which I hypothesize may have been an American Secret Agent facilitated in these endeavors by Aaron Burr's first cousin, Thaddeus Burr. Benjamin Tallmadge, Robert Townsend, Austin Roe and Caleb Brewster were known to have participated in the Culper Spy Ring informing General George Washington of the British troops whereabouts and supplies. Until now other members have not been identified ... read for yourself the evidence presented here with scanned letters and artifacts and the genealogy that illustrates how I am in possession of these fascinating historical records"--Preface.

Floyd, Lance, and I Bike Cross-Country, is a "live vicariously through me" adventure book about a teacher's bicycle journey across the United States in the summer of 2000. It includes information on how to get started, historical information of the areas ridden through, advice on fitness, cycling tips, and funny stories; and of course, plenty of information about Lance Armstrong, and how he helped the author get through the summer. The reader needs to take a different perspective when reading this book: you have to put yourself in the author's shoes, and live vicariously through him so you can see the country from the seat of a bicycle; experience the sore muscles and the fatigue; the heat, cold, the rain, and the exhilaration of going 50 mph; be there with him as he rides his bike seven hours into a 25-mph headwind, all while consuming 6,000 calories a day; ride up a mountain pass, and change a flat tire; last but not least, you need to feel lonely, so you can experience what he did to the fullest. If you can do all this, then you'll travel coast-to-coast on the seat of a bicycle.
This volume delves into the way conventional deterrence operates between nuclear-armed states in the third nuclear age. Unlike the first and second ages the advent of this new age has witnessed greater strain on the principles of mutual vulnerability and survivability that may result in increased risks of advertent or inadvertent escalation and horizontal nuclear proliferation. The book looks at the sum of three key simultaneous developments in the third nuclear age that merit attention. These include the emergence of asymmetric strategies, the introduction of unmanned platforms and the expansion of nuclear arsenals. The volume discusses how these concurrent developments might shape the prac...
