The Puzzle of Fascism: Could fascism arise in America or could it already be a Fascist State?
Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it. Using the historical record of fascist regimes, Eric D. Williams draws hauntingly similar characteristics used by former fascist regimes currently unfolding in the United States. Williams establishes eight undisputable points arising from the current administration, and offers valid points to stop the slide towards fascism by taking back America by the people, for the people.

The Power players is the first story to use real actors as the characters, who also play characters in a TV show within the storyline. This novella sweetens the dimensions of entertainment potential by allowing the reader to fall into the lives of actors who we all know, while simultaneously being introduced to a TV show they are producing.David Duchovny leads the journey as he works as producer on yet another presumed hit show, "David and Grey", starring himself. Jaclyn Smith is one of the more involved executive producers. Her essence brings a professionalism and calm maturity to counter the id of Duchovny. Babysitting the caricatures of Carla Gugino, Stephen Tobolowsky, Gary Cole, and then finally Sasha Grey, it becomes a curious case of a Long Island Iced Tea of personalities.A stalker announces his intention to kill Duchovny and Sasha. They're instructed to use the show to speak to the stalker to lure him out. Duchovny then finds himself trailed by every cast member, and those who want to be in the TV show, including Bob Saget.Duchovny has a confrontation with Danny Strong, a cut below Duchovny's taste who claims he's negotiating a deal with the writer of his current pilot, for yet another show called "Airstream". Duchovny takes it personally, because he wasn't informed, and sets out on a mission to be attached to "Airstream", while producing his current show, "David and Grey".In a complex set of circumstances, Duchovny must weave his life into negotiating not only with actors, but now the writer, whom they call E.D. He wants David & Grey renamed back to the original title, "Trade Wars", and have Sasha's character changed from rich girl to the original backstory of adult film star.Trying to please everyone makes Duchovny into a whore, while he ultimately sets out to please himself. Duchovny plays his expected essence as a tongue and cheek funny man, who isn't quite sure why he goes through so much trouble to win, but as he does, we like him more and more.The Power Players is a story about making a television pilot called "Trade Wars". It's also about negotiating for the rights to "Airstream" by the same writer. As we do, we fall into the "Trade Wars" pilot where Duchovny plays a former detective who gets out of jail after a frame job, and offered an underground law enforcement opportunity. The Power Players is everything you want in a story about the business. Playing in and out of the dysfunction of actors, the complexity of negotiating deals, all the while trying to avoid being killed by a civilian. In Hollywood, be careful what you wish for, because it may just come so true, it'll kill you. The Power Players is a high stakes game set as a treatment for a presumed TV series adaptation.

A storyline of the past, takes us to the present. Steve McQueen stumbled upon other activities in the sixties and seventies, ulimately paying a price for his long kept secret. Until now, nobody knew his beliefs, attitudes, or convictions regarding the rise and fall of American society. Not even his family was aware of what he was doing late at night, meeting with nefarious people, gathering intelligence, and acting as a patriot against those who wish to betray our intellectual property and national security. Ultimately this led to a decision laid upon McQueen only by circumstances God could provide, and in his final daliance into proving he was more than just a film actor and race car driver, whispering his angst to only one person in the spy industry.While working with an orphan of a younger generation named E, McQueen developed and trained this lonesome kid to find an identity while his partner in arms had ideas for making E into a younger version of McQueen.Today, E is on the move to save what is left of the McQueen dynasty. At the same time, McQueen's secret will be revealed to the world and his family; what McQueen was doing all those years and what part of history did he brand himself against. E whisked McQueen's granddaughter away from her normal life, the truth is revealed piece by piece as Molly McQueen can do nothing but understand how those pieces come together. E's movments become questionable as each move made was that of a chess piece, trained to lead the observer down a cold dark road, but not before revealing the final patriotic deed of McQueen that saved the heartbeat of America.The power of freedom has a price and escaping those who wish to take it is what entitles this story to play off the McQueen narrative. Getting Away is truly a notion within all of us.

During the last four decades remarkable developments have taken place in instrumentation and techniques for characterizing the microstructure and microcomposition of materials. Some of the most important of these instruments involve the use of electron beams because of the wealth of information that can be obtained from the interaction of electron beams with matter. The principal instruments include the scanning electron microscope, electron probe x-ray microanalyzer, and the analytical transmission electron microscope. The training of students to use these instruments and to apply the new techniques that are possible with them is an important function, which. has been carried out by formal classes in universities and colleges and by special summer courses such as the ones offered for the past 19 years at Lehigh University. Laboratory work, which should be an integral part of such courses, is often hindered by the lack of a suitable laboratory workbook. While laboratory workbooks for transmission electron microscopy have-been in existence for many years, the broad range of topics that must be dealt with in scanning electron microscopy and microanalysis has made it difficult for instructors to devise meaningful experiments. The present workbook provides a series of fundamental experiments to aid in "hands-on" learning of the use of the instrumentation and the techniques. It is written by a group of eminently qualified scientists and educators. The importance of hands-on learning cannot be overemphasized.

Authored by some of the state’s top wildlife scientists, The Upland and Webless Migratory Game Birds of Texas presents the most up-to-date and comprehensive information covering twenty-one species of game birds. Ranging from the most well-known, like the Wild Turkey and Mourning Dove, to the marsh-loving rails and other more elusive species, these birds have widespread appeal among both hunters and birders and underscore the diverse challenges facing wildlife scientists, land managers, and conservationists in Texas today. From cultural significance to taxonomy and evolutionary history, this volume provides a wealth of background information on these species. Additionally, the book offers illustrated species accounts, detailed range maps, and information about habitat and management requirements, hunting regulations, and research priorities. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of these game birds and the array of terrestrial and wetland landscapes key to their survival. This will serve as a convenient and thorough reference volume for wildlife biologists and enthusiasts, as well as landowners and hunters.

Given the realities of climate change and sea level rise, coastal cities around the world are struggling with questions of resilience. Resilience, at its core, is about desirable states of the urban social-ecological system and understanding how to sustain those states in an uncertain and tumultuous future. How do physical conditions ecological processes, social objectives, human politics, and history shape the prospects for resilience? Most books set out "the answer." This book sets out a process of grappling with holistic resilience from multiple perspectives, drawing on the insights and experiences of more than fifty Scholars and practitioners working together to make Jamaica Bay in New York-City an example for the world. Prospects for Resilience establishes a framework for understanding resilience practice in urban watersheds. Using Jamaica Bay, the largest contiguous natural area in New York, home to millions of New Yorkers, and a hub of global air travel with John F.Kennedy International Airport, the authors demonstrate how various components of social ecological systems interact, ranging from climatic factors to plant populations to human demographics. They also highlight essential tools for creating resilient Watersheds, including monitoring and identifying system indicators; computer modelling; green infrastructure; and decision science methods. Finally, they look at the role and importance of a "boundary organisation" like the new Science and Resilience Institute at Jamaica Bay in coordinating and facilitating resilience work, and consider significant research questions and prospects for the future-of urban watersheds. Prospects for Resilience sets forth an essential foundation of information and advice for researchers, urban planners, students and others who need to create more resilient cities that work with, not against, nature.
