Many people know more about the planets Venus and Mars than they do about our home planet, Earth. Unique in our solar system, and so far as we know in the Universe itself, the Earth has been evolving for the past five billion years, and is the result of the dynamic interplay of astronomical,physical, and chemical forces ranging from the vast to the barely perceptible. The evolution of the Earth has never been predictable. Life has come very close to being extinguished many times. After each such crisis, the survivors and their genes have diversified and grown in number to exploit allopportunities. Without such traumas it is hardly likely that evolution's pace could have reached its present advanced level; that of conscious life capable of changing the world, contemplating it, and in doing so changing itself at geologically stupendous rates. In Stepping Stones, Stephen Druryexplores how such a seemingly fragile world could have been formed and developed. Looking at the astonishing leaps, and near catastrophes that have occurred along the way, intermingled with inexorable but slow change, the book interweaves the evidence from geology, physics, biology, and chemistry,to tell an extraordinary story of the Earth's evolution spanning nearly five billion years.

With grants from the Hewlett Packard and Carnegie Foundations, Chris Juzwiak and a growing team of developmental instructors continue to uncover how basic writers learn best, pinpointing what encourages them, what discourages them, and how to serve their learning needs. Stepping Stones reflects the results of these studies with scaffolded exercises and instruction, color-coded parts of speech and writing concepts, and creative activities. With a strong visual appeal and clear explanations, this innovative textbook presents sentence and paragraph patterns so that all students can immediately grasp them, and offers carefully constructed guidance for developing and organizing ideas—-two of the most difficult tasks for developmental students.Award-winning educator, Chris Juzwiak, knows that many basic writing students have experienced failure in the past, but that with the right tools they can also become confident and successful learners.

While on her first school "cloud trip," young cupid Willa Bean tries to get a replacement for her baby brother's lost ball but makes some big mistakes that nearly spoil everyone's fun.

37 Devotions perfectly written for children ages 5-10. this is a unique devotional book that opens up rich spiritual issues and invites children to take steps to a bigger faith. Each devotion includes the text of an appropriate verse from the King James version. Some sample topics: While Yet Sinners! God's Love Romans 5:8 Far From PerfectGod's DesignRomans 3:23 Eternal Life: God's Free GiftGod's GiftRomans 6:23 Food For LifeGod's PlanJohn 6:35a A Light On The PathGod's GuidePsalm 119:105 Washing SinsGod's ProvisionI John 1:9 Counting StarsGod's CarePsalm 147:4 The Blood Of The LambGod's LambJohn 1:36 Love Is ObedienceOur ResponseI Peter 1:22 Peaceful SleepGod's PeacePsalm 4:8 Wisdom for The Asking!God's AnswerJames 1:5 Don't WorryPrayerPhilippians 4:6 Thankful BecauseGod's WillI Thessalonians 5:18 Watch What You ThinkOur ResponsibilityI Timothy 4:16 Rules To Live ByBiblePsalm 19:7-8 Wanting To ObeyGod HelpsPhilippians 2:13 Praise the Lord!God's HousePsalm 22:333 Hot or Cold?God's HealthRevelation 3:15-16 Worker For GodYour WitnessI Timothy 6:1 Not Perfect YetSanctificationPhilippians 1:6 This is a "twaddle-free" book. There is nothing watered-down or condescending about the devotions Joyce has written. She communicates profound spiritual truths in simple language and invites children to enter into the presence of the living God. It fills the tremendous gap between adult devotional books and the "twaddle" which dominates most preschool level Bible story books. Parents and teachers will be able to use these devotions to begin meaningful discussions with children that help their faith to develop and grow. Our prayer is that your children will be challenged and motivated to take the steps to Bigger Faith.- Rob & Cyndy Shearer, the publishers

Addiction is a stealth predator. Unrecognized, it will grow and flourish. Unchecked, it destroys. Marilea Rabasa grew up in post-WWII Massachusetts in a family that lived comfortably and offered her every advantage. But they were also haunted by closely guarded family secrets. Alcoholism reached back through several generations, and it was not openly discussed. Shame and stigma perpetuated the silence. And Marilea became part of this ongoing tragedy. From an unhappy childhood to a life overseas in the diplomatic service to now, living on an island in Puget Sound, Stepping Stones chronicles Marilea’s experiences, weaving a compelling tale of travel, motherhood, addiction, and heartbreaking loss. The constant thread throughout this story is the many faces and forms of addiction, phantoms that stalk her like an obsessed lover. What, if anything, will free her of the masks she has worn all her life? An inspiring, poignant recovery story, Stepping Stones tells how Marilea took on the demons that plagued her all her life—and defeated them.

This research is centered in computational electromagnetics with a focus on solving large-scale problems accurately in a timely fashion using first principle physics. Error control of the translation operator in 3-D is shown. A parallel implementation of the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) was studied as far as parallel efficiency and scaling. The large-scale scattering program (LSSP), based on the ScaleME library, was used to solve ultra-large-scale problems including a 200(lambda) sphere with 20 million unknowns. As these large-scale problems were solved, techniques were developed to accurately estimate the memory requirements. Careful memory management is needed in order to solve these massive problems. The study of MLFMA in large-scale problems revealed significant errors that stemmed from inconsistencie s in constants used- by different parts of the algorithm. These were fixed to produce the most accurate data possible for large-scale surface scattering problems. Data was calculated on a missile-like target using both high frequency methods and MLFMA. This data was compared and analyzed to determine possible strategies to increase data acquisition speed and accuracy through multiple computation method hybridization.
