"Operation Anaconda and Beyond" provides a controversial look at events that have affected the United States and many other countries throughout the world since the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center and the United States Pentagon.

This fictional book was written before most of the events had actually taken place and details the fate of modern day's two most terrifying men. Following the United States Military men in action, it details their accounts through recent conflicts.

The reader will be transported into a special operations mission with a Marine sniper and Navy SEAL expedition. Operation Anaconda and Beyond depicts a minute-by-minute sequence of United States forces carrying out their assignments while engaged in armed conflict with Taliban, Al Qaida, and Iraqi enemy forces.

Many text books have been written on the subject "Exploration Geophysics." The majority of these texts focus on the theory and the mathematical treatment of the subject matter but lack treatment of practical aspects of geophysical exploration. This text is written in simple English to explain the physical meaning of jargon, or terms used in the industry. It describes how seismic data is acquired in 2-D and 3-D, how they are processed to convert the raw data to seismic vertical and horizontal cross sections, that are geologically meaningful, and how these and other data are interpreted to delineate a prospect. Workshops are included after each chapter and are designed to reinforce learning of the concepts presented.

Key Features:

Written in simple easy to understand language

Heavily illustrated to aid in understanding the text

End of chapter "Key words and workshop"

The text includes several appendices and answers for the selected workshop problems

Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat.

But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.

Insects are seldom mentioned in discussions surrounding human history, yet they have dramatically impacted today's societies. This book places them front and center, offering a multidisciplinary view of their significance. Diseases vectored by insects have killed more people than all weapons of war. Fleas are common pests, but some can transmit illnesses such as the bubonic plague. In fact, three pandemics can be traced back to them. Epidemics of typhus have been caused by lice. Conversely, humans have also benefitted from insects for millennia. Silk comes from silkworms and honey comes from bees. Despite the undeniably powerful effects of insects on humans, their stories are typically left out of our history books. In The Silken Thread, entomologists Robert. N. Wiedenmann and J. Ray Fisher link the history of insects to the history of empires, cultural exchanges, and warfare. The book narrows its focus to just five insects: a moth, a flea, a louse, a mosquito, and a bee. The authors explore the impact of these insects throughout time and the common threads connecting them. Using biology to complement history, they showcase these small creatures in a whole new light. On every page, the authors thoughtfully analyze the links between history and entomology. The book begins with silkworms, which have been farmed for centuries. It then moves to fleas and their involvement in the spread of the plague before introducing the role lice played in the Black Death, wars, and immigration. The following section concerns yellow fever mosquitos, emphasizing the effects of yellow fever in the Americas and the connection to sugar and slavery. After discussing the importance of western honey bees, the authors tie these five insects together in an exciting closing chapter.

Determined to ensure Superman’s ultimate sacrifice was not in vain, Bruce Wayne aligns forces with Diana Prince with plans to recruit a team of metahumans to protect the world from an approaching threat of catastrophic proportions. The task proves more difficult than Bruce imagined, as each of the recruits must face the demons of their own pasts to transcend that which has held them back, allowing them to come together, finally forming an unprecedented league of heroes.

Now united, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash have to band together to save the planet from Steppenwolf, DeSaad and Darkseid and their dreadful intentions.

"I sought clarity." So begins The Edge, which documents the parallel journeys of a martial arts master and his student. It is a record of the insights Ray Fisher has gleaned during his more than thirty years of intensive practice--insights into matters both practical and spiritual--and a bold conceptualization of the martial arts as a way of life. Alongside this, The Edge tells the story of co-author Robert Lurie's slow and sometimes painful transition, under Fisher's tutelage, from being "a man forever seated, bathed in the flickering glow of a monitor" into a more fully integrated human being: someone in whom the physical (which had always been given short shrift) could now take its place alongside, and perhaps even rein in, the cerebral. The Edge is not just a book for martial artists. Rather, it is a book for anyone who has ever felt the stirring of a desire for self-transformation.
