This book has been written for God's people whom I love, and to be loyal and obedient to God. I want it to bring Glory to God (the Father), Jesus (the Son), our salvation, and the Holy Spirit, our guide and counselor. I thank God for His Word, which is truth. Ever Since I was saved, year 1972, God has been using me in all the gifts that are His to give. I am hoping people will see God's ministry in a new light. It is not difficult, He has made it easy and simple through His Word, truth and our obedience. Many times when I have been given discernment on short notice and I have had to minister prayer. God will remove all obstacles in the way, only for just a short time, but long enough for me to be obedient. Many times I pray for salvation with people and they become a new creation in Christ Jesus, there is no chance for self to get in way. So if I pray for their salvation, I pray for healing afterwards. They are always healed. Praise God As you read the testimony part of this book, you will see many times this has happened. God wants us to have the desires of our hearts. I like short prayer; then I am not getting into something else I should not be talking about. God knew of the whole thing. Keep it simple to the point. Praise God I am always faithful to remember to give God all the glory honor, praise, and thanksgiving for what He has done. Praise Him I now give all the glory of this book to God.every thing published is truth. He Cares. I am nothing without God, Jesus, and Holy Spirit, and their love for me. I have a great love for them and all people. I want to encourage and comfort all.

The sixth International Symposium on Genetics and Molecular Biology of Plant Nutriti9n was held in Elsinore, Denmark from August 17-21, 1998 and organised by th RiS0 National Laboratory in the year of its 40 anniversary. The 98 participants represented 23 countries and 80 scientific contributions with 43 oral and 37 poster presentations. The symposium addressed the molecular mechanisms, physiology and genetic regulation of plant nutrition. The Symposium brought together scientists from a range of different disciplines to exchange information and ideas on the molecular biology of mineral nutrition of plants. The symposium emphasised: * Bridging the gab between molecular biology, applied genetics, plant nutrition and plant breeding. * The development of methodologies to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of nutrition of plants * Quality of plant products. With sessions on: Nitrogen; Phosphorous; Micronutrients; Symbiosis; Membranes; Stress; Heavy Metals and Plant Breeding. In comparison with the previous conferences in this series more emphasis was placed on use of molecular techniques to clarify physiological mechanisms and processes, gene expression and regulation, as well as genetic marker assisted analysis. Significant of molecular genetic markers and other progress was reported in exploitation biotechnologies in breeding programmes.

Exploring the controversy surrounding therapeutic human cloning, this book draws upon data collected from news articles and interviews with journalists to examine the role of mass media in shaping biomedical controversies. With specific reference to the US and the UK as two leading scientific nations grappling with the global issue of therapeutic cloning, together with attention to the important role played by nations in Southeast Asia, this book sheds light on media representations of scientific developments, the unrealistic hype that can surround them, the influence of religion and the potentially harmful imposition of journalistic and nationalist values on the scientific field. Empirically grounded and theoretically innovative, The Therapeutic Cloning Debate will appeal to social scientists across a range of disciplines with interests in science communication, public engagement, cultural and media studies, science politics, science journalism, the sociology of expert knowledge and risk. It will also appeal to scientists, journalists, policymakers and others interested in how news media frame science for the public.

In Uneasy Possessions: The Mother-Daughter Dilemma in French Women's Writings, 1671-1928, Katharine Ann Jensen analyzes the work of five major French women writers, discovering a four-century pattern of mother-daughter relationships marked by domination, submission, and conflict. This groundbreaking study explores work of Marie-Madeleine de Lafayette, Marie de Sevigne, Elisabeth Vigee Lebrun, George Sand, and Colette, providing a new reading of women's history and offering a new understanding of female psychology. Jensen argues that conflict between the mothers and daughters depicted in these texts was the result of two contradictory ideologies. In order to pass proper feminine behavior on to their daughters, mothers were encouraged to construe daughters as part of themselves, even as daughters were expected to adopt their mothers' wishes as their own. At the same time, a developing individualism created a conflict between the daughter's desire for autonomy and her mother's wish to be recognized for having raised a perfect daughter-alter ego. Despite vast changes in social organization in France over the four centuries of this study, the mother-daughter ideology remained effectively the same. To keep their daughters virgins, mothers were expected to form their daughters in their own image-as a mirror reflection. Mother-daughter reflectivity extended even into the marriage bed, as daughters were taught to remain faithful and to submit to (male) authority throughout their lives. Thus, the daughter's sexuality was channeled into producing legitimate offspring while the mother's ambition was confined to working on her daughter, rather than focused on creating cultural works that might compete with men's. Mothers were rewarded with the narcissistic satisfaction of viewing their filial creations as a socially sanctioned work of art: daughters thus functioned as possessions.

Volume 29 features articles on Anton Reiser; the legacies and myths of German romanticism; Goethe's morphology as antecedent to computational analysis; on Goethe commemorations in Argentina; and a reconsideration of Goethe's Weltliteratur in the context of Handelsverkehr (trade) with China. Additionally, volume 29 features two special sections. The first commemorates an anniversary, Hoelderlin's 250th birthday, with work devoted to "Reading and Exhibiting," compiled by Meike Werner. The other special section, on movement and edited by Heidi Schlipphacke, further explores research featured at MLA 2021 and revisits many questions of sentimentalism, visuality, and narration that are at the core of canon formation and eighteenth-century thresholds of modernity. As always, the book review section, edited by Sean Franzel, concludes the volume.

This book gives an introduction to the discrete wavelet transform and some of its applications. It is based on a novel approach to discrete wavelets called lifting. The first part is a completely elementary introduction to the subject, and the prerequisites for this part are knowledge of basic calculus and linear algebra. The second part requires some knowledge of Fourier series and digital signal analysis. The connections between lifting and filter theory are presented and the wavelet packet transforms are defined. The time-frequency plane is used for interpretation of signals. The problems with finite length signals are treated in detail. MATLAB is used as the computational environment for examples and implementation of transforms. The book is well suited for undergraduate mathematics and electrical engineering students and engineers in industry.

On December 31, 2019, the World Health Organization (WHO) was informed of a cluster of pneumonia cases in Wuhan City, Hubei Province of China. Illnesses have since been linked to a disease caused by a previously unidentified strain of coronavirus, designated Coronavirus Disease 2019, or COVID-19. The disease has spread to other countries, including the United States. On March 11, the WHO announced that the outbreak was officially a pandemic, the highest level of health emergency and has led to tens of thousands of cases and thousands of deaths worldwide. This book discusses a wide variety of topics related to the outbreak including: selected actions taken by the U.S. federal government to quell the introduction and spread of COVID-19 in the United States, economic implications and government assistance.

This monograph will assess the effects of operational deployments on Army Reserve Component attrition rate and its strategic implications for the U.S. Army. It will challenge the belief that the current use of the Army Reserve Component in peace time operational deployments is having a negative effect on its attrition rate. Following the end of Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm the United States' military began a dramatic down sizing of its active and reserve forces. By the end of 1993, the U.S. Army had been reduced from its late 1980s size of eighteen combat divisions to only ten combat divisions. As the draw down of military forces continued the number of operational deployments increased for the active Army. Haiti, Somalia, Bosnia, and Kosovo were added to the active Army's already crowded plate that included the Multinational Force and Observes in the Sinai Peninsula and Operation Southern Watch in Southwest Asia. It became apparent that the active Army required assistance with these additional missions or risk a degradation of its unit readiness and morale. As a result of this dilemma, the decision was made to activate units and personnel of the Army National Guard and Army Reserve to support on-going deployments. This monograph reviews the findings of four studies conducted to determine the effects of operational deployments on the U.S. military. In addition, the attrition rate for the Army National Guard and Army Reserve is reviewed, to include high demand units, in order to determine linkages between the increased use of the reserve component and corresponding attrition. The conclusion of the monograph is that peace time operational deployments are not having a negative effect on the attrition rate of the Army National Guard and Army Reserve. Supporting this conclusion is the consistent decrease in the Army National Guard's attrition rate during the period 1993-2000 and the fairly steady attrition rate of the Army Reserve during the same period.

The "meanest man in California" as described by John Bidwell receives his chance at redemption thanks to this reprint of John Marsh, Pioneer by George Lyman as originally published in 1930. Here we discover an 18th Century Massachusetts native, born of English immigrants moving west with the nation. Marsh is a colorful man influencing people and events throughout his life and location. The first overland emigrants from the United States, the Bartleson-Bidwell Party, came to California specifically with Marsh's adobe home destination in mind. "The meanest man in California" stuck to Marsh's reputation. Marsh died unheralded; Bidwell lived. Marsh is a colorful man influencing people and events throughout his life and location. Here is a man who knew Abraham Lincoln when the future president was a soldier in the Black Hawk War. "El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reina de los Angeles" might not have become the Los Angles we know today had "Doctor" John Marsh not provided small pox immunizations. John Fremont and Kit Carson were guests at his Rancho Los Meganos. Marsh was well established in California seven years before Captain John Sutter became lost in the Delta tule bull rushes as he sailed to present day Sacramento. Mountain men, scouts, and members of the ill-fated Donner Party were known to him from Illinois and Wisconsin days. The list of coincidence and "67-degrees of separation" connecting John Marsh with historic figures and places in United States history is surprising. Historians, book lovers, California Emigrant Trail enthusiasts, and those seeking a real-life adventure story will enjoy this biography. The true-life exploits of Dr. John Marsh are as absorbing as legendary bandits Joaquin Murrieta and Three-finger Jack, or the fictionalized Don Diego de la Vega as Senor Zorro. Modern reprint in facsimile of John Marsh, Pioneer: The Life Story of a Trail-blazer on Six Frontiers by George D. Lyman as originally published in 1930. Paperback, Glossy Color Cover, Black & White text, Cream 55 lb. Paper, 464 pages, Perfect Bound with a new Preface/Introduction. Imprint of Byron Hot Springs, San Francisco, CA

God Never Quits What do you do when life tumbles in-when all that you've counted on is stripped away and you ask, "Why, God . . . why me?" After almost forty years of pastoral ministry, Dr. Jensen was charged with a crime he didn't commit. After two trials, conviction, prison, and probation, he lost almost everything that he had counted on: wealth, friends, reputation, credentials, etc. It appeared his ministry was over. During this time Paul's letter to the Philippians became an outline for his own experience, and what God has taught him.Most importantly, the theme, God Never Quits-"He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion" is really a challenge to each of us, especially as we go through some dark times.Coming from most people, "God never quits" might sound hollow-but not from Vern. He has endured things that would crush most people, and he has come out on the other side with a faith that has actually gotten stronger. We all go through hard times and when we do, most of us tend to wonder, "Why me?" We ask why God is letting us hurt in this way, or why He seems so far away. As you read Vern's story, it becomes clear very quickly that he is not like most people. Faced with hard times, Vern very quickly shifts his thoughts from "why me" to "Lord, what are you trying to teach me?" This book isn't just an account of what happened in Vern's life: it is a reminder of what God can do through each of us if we let him. Greg Surratt, Senior Pastor, Seacoast Church (from the foreword)Dr. Jensen is a pastor on the staff of Seacoast Church in Mt. Pleasant, SC, a church that serves more than 15,000 people in multiple campuses. He oversees the support and prayer ministries, and counsels people in crisis. His previous book, Unlimited Power, is a devotional guide into a power-filled life. He is married to Migsie, and they have seven children, twenty grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.
