Introduction to Diffraction in Materials Science and Engineering
Fundamentals and practical applications of diffraction for researchers, engineers, and students Materials science relies heavily on diffraction for the analysis of materials. Introduction to Diffraction in Materials Science and Engineering is a survey of the practical aspects of this valuable tool. Though it contains basic discussion of the theory and physics of diffraction, this book emphasizes understanding and the practical application of diffraction in materials science—making it a valuable text and resource for students, professionals, and researchers. Designed as a teaching and self-study text, this resource begins with a treatment of the fundamentals of crystallography and crystal structure and its importance in diffraction before moving on to cover important aspects of diffraction applications. Numerous examples and problems at the end of each chapter, including critical thinking questions, make this an excellent tool for learning and understanding. The book includes treatments of:*Basics of crystallography *Geometrical representation of crystals and reciprocal space *X-rays and neutrons *Structure factors and intensity *Powder diffraction *Qualitative (Powder Diffraction File) and quantitative phase analysis *Use of the International Tables for more complex structures and the Reitveld method *Residual stress *Introductions to texture, small diffracting units, and long-range order Aaron Krawitz provides both a practical introduction to diffraction that suits the needs of students and a resource for professionals already at work in materials science or engineering who want to utilize the power of diffraction in the study of materials.

University of Tennessee

University of Tennessee

The school that eventually became the University of Tennessee was founded as one of the first three colleges established west of the Appalachians.In 1794, two years before Tennessee even became a state, the legislature of the Southwest Territory established Blount College with a charter, and the small school struggled with a tiny student body and even smaller staff before changing its name to East Tennessee College in 1807. As the college grew, the trustees of the school scouted potential sites in Knoxville, settling on the site affectionately called "The Hill" in 1828, and changing its name once again in 1840 to East Tennessee University. During the Civil War, classes came to an abrupt halt as students and faculty were recruited to serve on battlefields, and troops used campus facilities as hospitals and barracks. With a final name change in 1879, the University of Tennessee has exploded in growth in the 20th century, with campuses and programs across the state. In addition to a rich sports tradition, the University of Tennessee is considered one of the best colleges in the Southeast, and among the best institutions of higher learning in the country.
The Rhetoric of Innovation

The Rhetoric of Innovation

A profound tension exists between the opposing tendencies of preservation and innovation in rabbinic legal literature. The rabbis made tremendous attempts to safeguard traditions handed down to them from prior generations in the face of significant new challenges. At the same time, these creative religious thinkers boldly invented new practices (or altered old ones) to fit shifting circumstances, designing and utilizing a rich rhetorical vocabulary to allow such necessary innovation. Through critical examination of more than 1,000 occurrences of terms depicting legal innovation, this study maps the contours of legal change reported during the rabbinic period. The Rhetoric of Innovation examines temporal clusters of statements and actions attributed to authority figures in the Tannaitic and Amoraic periods, also reviewing the geographic distribution of these words and their divergent usages in documents edited in Roman Palestine and Babylonia. It also provides significant insight into rabbinic philosophies of legal change, through exploring the various rationales deemed acceptable within the rabbinic corpus. In this respect the book carries a relevant message for modern Jewish life in its consideration of the history of appropriate boundaries and reasons for legal change-questions that recur frequently in Jewish discourse today.

Donor work and fundraising is essential for any vibrant archival program. Without new collections and new funding, archives programs can stagnate, and their operations can become vulnerable to economic downturns. Archivists spend a lot of time managing collections, other archivists, and researchers in their reading rooms, but often not enough time considering the stuff that makes up their collections, where that stuff comes from, and how that stuff—and the sources of that stuff—can be valuable tools for advocacy, promotion, and fundraising for their archival programs. Donors and Archives: A Guidebook for Successful Programs reviews the complex landscape of donor work, archival donations, and institutional fundraising for today’s archivists. It provides practical approaches to enhance donor relations for all types of archival programs, such as academic, government, private, and corporate archives. The book covers the planning, the process, and the partners needed for successful donations and donor programs. Arranged into four sections, the book offers practical advice and best practices in a number of areas including: how donations work, who donates to archives, how to prepare for donors, how to evaluate and manage the stuff from potential donors, how to work with an institution’s development office, what are the obligations and expectations of archivists and donors, how to develop donor strategies, how to work with friends and supporters of the archives program, what happens after the donation is complete, and what is the overall value of donors to archival programs. Donors and Archives: A Guidebook for Successful Programs highlights the importance of development and fundraising for archives, while focusing on the donor and potential donor. Their interest, their support, their enthusiasm, and their stuff are vital to the success of archival programs. Archivists involved in donor work and fundraising will find the practical advice and best practices in this book applicable, replicable, timely, and valuable.

A Virtue-Based Defense of Perinatal Hospice
Perinatal hospice is a novel form of care for an unborn child who has been diagnosed with a significantly life-limiting condition. In this book, Aaron D. Cobb develops a virtue-based defense of the value of perinatal hospice. He characterizes its promotion and provision as a common project of individuals, local communities, and institutions working together to provide exemplary care. Engaging with important themes from the work of Alasdair MacIntyre and Robert Adams, he shows how perinatal hospice manifests virtues crucial to meeting the needs of families in these difficult circumstances. As a work of applied virtue ethics, this book has important normative, social, and political implications for the creation and development of structured programs of care. It grounds the view that communities ought (i) to devote resources to ensure that these programs are widely available and (ii) to develop social structures that promote awareness of and accessibility to these forms of care. A Virtue-Based Defense of Perinatal Hospice will be of interest to philosophers working in bioethics and applied virtue ethics, as well as scholars in the fields of neonatology, nursing, palliative and hospice care, and counseling who are interested in the study of perinatal hospice.

Quit Pastoring Your Church

Quit Pastoring Your Church

Jesus is real. He is with you. He is for you. He is your pastor. And he wants to be the pastor of your church. These statements might seem obvious, but what if we all took them seriously? Aaron Gerrard did just that in his journey to plant a church in Ancaster, Ontario, Canada. In the new book, Quit Pastoring Your Church. The story of a small church making Jesus their pastor, Gerrard shares candidly about his journey to start a new kind of church by allowing Jesus to be the guide and it radically impacted the story of this new congregation. Part memoir, part church planting guide, part leadership model handbook, join Aaron Gerrard for the journey he went on in an attempt to quit pastoring his church.Introduction: A couple of times a year I get to work with men and women who are considering starting a new church. We call it a Design Shop. It is a project of the New Leaf Network, a collaborative group of Christian leaders from a broad spectrum of denominations. These people are working to help the Canadian Church discover new potential, with new conversations, new leaders, and new initiatives. Some attendees participate with merely an emerging idea and a sense of new purpose, some have started a project, and some are far enough along into an initiative that they are starting to question their sanity. Regardless of where a person fits, these are my favourite people to hang out with. They are dreamers, risk-takers, and innovators. In the face of our current culture and many of the obstacles therein, these people are willing to try. Something. Anything. It may be something that lasts a while. It may be something that ends quickly. But they are going to push forward. And I love it.Before starting my work as a church planter I attended the Design Shop. It was so helpful and inspiring that I took it again as a refresher course a few years into my church's new life. Soon after that, I was asked to come on board as one of the instructors. I agreed, but on one condition: I wanted to develop a new session about the centrality of Jesus. Thankfully, whenever you phrase something like that, you make it extremely difficult for someone to reply with a "no." My idea was accepted and now, among other things, I conclude the Design Shop by teaching a session I entitled, "Jesus as Pastor." My problem with teaching this session at the Design Shop was that I only have 45 minutes to unpack it. Which is why I find myself here, writing a book. This book is what I wish I could say in my 45 minute session.
Lace Lust & Lies: Our Shameful Affair with the Porn Industry
The Author exposes the history of, and the expansion of the porn industry into the huge money machine it is today. He looks at porn's effect on families, our churches and the nation as a whole. Shares what The Bible says about these issues. Then offers a Bible solution (forgiveness, deliverance, etc.) to those caught up in porn.In a little over 60 years, we have went from banning the Bikini in public, to now today, various media outlets plaster near naked bodies all over magazines, posters, and billboards. Not to mention the millions of porn tapes, DVDs, videos and internet sites that are daily pumping out across the airwaves full nudity and every perverted sex act one can imagine (including child porn, beastiality, incest and rape). Is porn a problem at your house? It is for MILLIONS of people currently caught up in its dark destructive trap.This rapid downward social spiral, seems to prove we have lost our moral compass and no longer have any sense of decency. Fact is, we are on the brink of a complete moral and social breakdown. Many historians and theologians believe God destroyed whole cities and nations for the abundance of their over-indulgences, perversions and sexual sins, e.g., Sodom, Gomorrah, the Canaanites, Pompeii, etc. And some even think the Roman Empire itself was judged and removed by the Almighty because of their carnal appetites.Many will scoff or even laugh at such a statement, while totally ignoring the Creator and what He says about decency, marriage, men, women, sex, sin, society and the judgement to come. The masses may not like it and some may even reject it, but THE TRUTH remains, the only lasting solution to this dilemma is still found where it always was; in the pages of The Holy Bible.
