MacGyver science is the creative use of equipment for purposes that were not originally intended by the developer as well as the scientist’s own development of sensors or technology for problems where commercially available solutions fall short. Following the successful MacGyver conference sessions in the past years it is time to combine all our ideas, opinions and new research in an article collection. This is a call for papers for all MacGyver earth scientists– present your tools, processes, proof of concepts, designs, open source components, failures and successes, data sets, and emerging technologies, and contribute your part to this exciting collection. Even if your new tools, prototypes or method has been described as part of the method section of a broader publication, we invite you to write a separate publication in our collection that focusses solely on the new tool, processes, proof of concepts, designs, open source components, etc.
John Rarig was born in Germany about 1775. He came to America about 1802 settling in Pennsylvania. He married Mary Ann Rarig and they were the parents of seven children. Information on many of their descendants who continued to live in Pennsylvania and elsewhere in 1935 is given in this volume.
When the Worst Happens -- and it Always Does, sooner or later -- that worst possible thing often turns out to be a blessing in disguise. In this brave and cheerful little volume, you'll find forty of these blessings in disguise -- moving, true stories in which people just like you and me gather their courage and overcome their hardships with optimism and grace. You'll meet: Layota Maddox, an impoverished, disabled girl with no use of any joints in her body except her neck, who writes out her story with a pencil in her mouth poking at a computer keyboard. Rise Kittle, single parent to four boys of her own, who suddenly finds herself mother to four little girls. Theresa Blume, whose deafness actually enhances her life. And many, many more. With author Azriela Jaffe as your guide, you'll draw inspiration and strength from these astonishing and life-affirming stories, which bear the promise that yes, the glass really is half full.
