Predator (1987)
Major Alan 'Dutch' Schaefer (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and a band of mercenaries head into the Central American jungle to rescue some Americans from guerillas. However, there is an additional evil force at work in the jungle, something not human. The mercenaries are picked off one by one and soon Schaefer must face the alien predator alone.
The Terminator (1984)
A humanoid cyborg from a future dominated by machines (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is sent back in time to kill the mother (Linda Hamilton) of the as-yet-unborn rebel leader John Connor. Meanwhile, the rebels also select an agent (Michael Biehn) to travel back in time and stop the Terminator, thereby ensuring that events follow their pre-ordained course.
Commando (1985)
John Matrix (Arnold Schwarzenegger), a retired Secret Service colonel, is on the trail of right-wing renegades and a Central American dictator, whom he had once helped to depose. The renegades have kidnapped his eleven-year-old daughter and Matrix is not going to rest until he has her back. This action spectacular was much admired on its initial release due its introduction of humour into a formula which had been played straight up until that point.
Conan The Barbarian (1982)
Mythical hero Conan (Arnold Schwarzenegger) vows to take revenge after the murder of his parents and destruction of his village. Determined to learn the 'riddle of steel', he sets off with his companions, Subotai the Mongol (Gerry Lopez) and Queen of Thieves (Sandahl Bergman), to kill Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones), the leader of an evil snake cult. John Milius, who co-wrote the script with Oliver Stone, directs.
The Use of Hereford, a local variation of the Roman rite, was one
of the diocesan liturgies of medieval England before their
abolition and replacement by the Book of Common Prayer in 1549.
Unlike the widespread Use of Sarum, the Use of Hereford was
confined principally to its diocese, which helped to maintain its
individuality until the Reformation. This study seeks to catalogue
and evaluate all the known surviving sources of the Use of
Hereford, with particular reference to the missals and gradual,
which so far have received little attention. In addition to these a
variety of other material has been examined, including a number of
little-known or unknown important fragments of early Hereford
service-books dismembered at the Reformation and now hidden away as
binding or other scrap in libraries and record offices. This is the
fullest examination of Hereford liturgical sources ever undertaken
and may stimulate similar and much-needed studies of other diocesan
uses, in particular Sarum and York. As well as describing in detail
the various manuscript sources, the rare single edition printed
Hereford texts, the missals and breviaries, are also discussed.
Unlike books of the Sarum and York rites, these 'one-offs' were
never revised and reissued. In addition to the examination of these
sources, William Smith discusses the possible origins of the rite
and provides an analysis of the Hereford liturgical calendar, of
the festa, including those of the cathedral's patron St Ethelbert
and the no less famous St Thomas Cantilupe, that helped to make
Hereford use so distinctive.

To prepare materials engineers and scientists of the future,
Foundations of Materials Science and Engineering, Sixth Edition is
designed to present diverse topics in the field with appropriate
breadth and depth. The strength of the book is in its balanced
presentation of concepts in science of materials (basic knowledge)
and engineering of materials (applied knowledge). The basic and
applied concepts are integrated through concise textual
explanations, relevant and stimulating imagery, detailed sample
problems, electronic supplements, and homework problems. This
textbook is therefore suitable for both an introductory course in
materials at the sophomore level and a more advanced (junior/senior
level) second course in materials science and engineering. The
extensive media package available with the text provides tutorials
and animations, as well as image files, case studies, FE Exam
review questions, and a solutions manual and lecture PowerPoint
files for instructors.

After costly U.S. engagement in two wars in the Middle East,
foreign policy debates are dominated by questions about the
appropriateness of American military interventions. A central issue
is whether an interventionist foreign policy is compatible with the
American constitutional tradition.The book examines Irving
Babbitt's (1865-1933) unique contribution to understanding the
quality of foreign policy leadership in a democracy. Babbitt
explored how a democratic nation's foreign policy is a product of
the moral and cultural tendencies of the nation's leaders and that
the substitution of expansive, sentimental Romanticism for the
religious and ethical traditions of the West would lead to
imperialism. The United States has been moving away from the
restraining order of sound constitutionalism to impose its will on
other nations, which will inevitably cause the United States to
clash with the 'civilizational' regions that have emerged in recent
decades. Democracy and Imperialism brings the question of soul
types to issues of foreign policy leadership and discusses the
qualities in leaders that are necessary for sound foreign policy.
