Humankind has sought a simple, universal theorem representing the
ultimate building block of nature. In searching, we have learned
that energy and matter are complementary states of reality.
Self-Utility - A Theory of Everything explains how within this
universal design principle, "process" is also a complementary state
of this same reality. Within this informational framework lies this
unifying theory of existence - Self-Utility. Self-Utility
represents a model of internal attributes that initiate causal
outcomes. Self-Utility is an intrinsic determinism that wills its
host's animation, wellbeing, and its existence Self-Utility is
inherent in humans, animals, plants, social systems, institutions,
organizations, rocks, atoms, energy, ideas and even the cosmos
itself. Self-Utility unites a diversity of "-ologies" under its
common discipline. Personal application of this theory empowers us
with a cognitively heightened sense of understanding, of insight,
and of control over our behavior and ultimately of whom we are.
Embracing the concept of Self-Utility gives us a reference to
understand the dynamics of vast interacting networks of any type.
It allows us to predict values and allegiances, thus ultimately
predicting the behaviors of people, organizations and objects. And
it empowers us to direct our being through interrelating cycles of
influence. Self-Utility brings order to our whimsical World of
whirling dervishes as if in a mystic circus.
What do CSI, Twilight, Indiana Jones, Theoretical Physics and The
Holy Bible all have in common?... According to this book, Blood
From forensic science to vampires to hunting for the Holy Grail,
we, as a culture, by necessity and curiosity, are fascinated by
this gooey material that flows through our veins Red, life-giving,
and one of the greatest enigmas of science, blood becomes the
subject of interest in this thought provoking study of the Bible.
Fundamentally, BLOOD is the most important natural element in
Christendom because of the Sacrifice of Jesus, His Blood and Its
connection to Christian salvation. Drawing from divine inspiration,
the etymology (study) of classic Hebrew and Greek words and other
fields of study, this book attempts to answer two basic questions:
What is the Blood of Jesus and how can "It" actually save us? The
theoretical answer lies inside the pages of this book. The author
invites readers to join him in a sort of "Crime Scene
Investigation" at the foot of that Cross to determine the true
nature of Jesus' Blood.
Indigenous peoples have passed down vital knowledge for generations
from which local plants help cure common ailments, to which parts
of the land are unsuitable for buildings because of earthquakes.
Here, Hendry examines science through these indigenous roots,
problematizing the idea that Western science is the only type that
deserves that name.
Human chemistry is the study of bond-forming and bond-breaking
reactions between people and the structures they form. People often
speak of having either good or bad chemistry together: whereby,
according to consensus, the phenomenon of love is a chemical
reaction. The new science of human chemistry is the study of these
reactions. Historically, human chemistry was founded with the 1809
publication of the classic novella Elective Affinities, by German
polymath Johann von Goethe, a chemical treatise on the origin of
love. Goethe based his human chemistry on Swedish chemist Torbern
Bergman's 1775 chemistry textbook A Dissertation on Elective
Attractions, which itself was founded on Isaac Newton's 1687
supposition that the cause of chemical phenomena may 'all depend
upon certain forces by which the particles of bodies, by some
causes hitherto unknown, are either mutually impelled towards each
other, and cohere in regular figures, or are repelled and recede
from one another'; which thus defines life.
The current global marketplace demands more workers who are
scientifically literate, yet few are being adequately prepared to
meet that demand. Particularly underrepresented are women and
minorities, who often lack the social and academic support that
stimulate and sustain interest in science, math, and engineering.
The authors of this book demonstrate that early intervention,
especially during grades 4 through 8, can help overcome some of
these obstacles. They show how increased career awareness and
exposure to mentors and role models can help students see science
and math-related careers as desirable and viable options. And they
explain how test preparation, activity-based instruction,
cooperative learning, and tutoring can help to improve academic
outcomes. The authors also provide critical information on ten
successful intervention programs, including MESA, Project SEED, and
Operation SMART - and they offer practitioners specific guidance
for developing, funding, and implementing similar programs in their
own schools.
Antiaging 101 empowers us with the knowledge and tools required to
slow the aging process. Structured in the format of a college
lecture series, Antiaging 101 explains the lifestyle changes

stress reduction impact your health and aging. By learning this
material you will empower yourself and your family to make
intelligent choices that will impact your health immediately. After
this course you will know what foods to eat, what supplements to
take, what exercise to do, and what hormones to utilize. Yes the
program takes sacrifice and commitment, but in return you will have
more energy, strength, and stamina. You will look better and you
will be healthier. You will realize that each day, instead of being
another step toward getting older, is actually an opportunity to

George has risen high and, with Bill, the guileful ruler, and the
US Congress protecting him, his confidence swells. As it is, the
circumstances of his life make him feel utterly safe and he becomes
blind to the lurking dangers around him. Enter pragmatic Doug -
no-nonsense, down-to-earth and pesky. He's one who won't suffer
fools and is determined to change the order of things. Now meet
Carlo who sets his sights on greatness and Leon who has the
audacity to oppose the daring Italian. With elements of the looming
conflict in place, the plot rapidly unfolds. Leon joins forces with
Doug and Jay - Doug who is lording it over Bill and Jay who has the
ear of President Reagan. A conspiracy is set in motion. The science
community rumbles, with many crushed in the quaking earth. And the
tale fate has writ plays out to its inevitable end.
