Our rationale for the second edition remains the same as for the first edition, which appeared over twenty years ago. This is to offer simplified, useful and easily understood methods for dealing with the creep of components operating under conditions met in practice. When the first edition was written, we could not claim that the methods which were introduced were well-tried. They were somewhat conjectural, although firmly based, but not sufficiently well devel oped. Since that time, the Reference Stress Methods (RSM) introduced in the book have received much scrutiny and development. The best recognition we could have of the original methods is the fact that they are now firmly embedded in codes of practice. Hopefully, we have now gone a long way towards achieving our original objectives. There are major additions to this second edition which should help to justify our claims. These include further clarification regarding Reference Stress Methods in Chapter 4. There are also new topics which depend on RSM in varying degrees: • Creep fracture is covered in Chapter 7, where methods for assessing creep crack initiation and crack growth are fully described. This chapter starts with a review of the basic concepts of fracture mechanics and follows with useful, approximate methods, compatible with the needs of design for creep and the availability of standard data. • Creep/fatigue interactions and environmental effects appear in Chapter 8.

A History of the Theatre Costume Business

Creators of Character

By: Triffin I. Morris,Gregory DL Morris,Rachel E. Pollock

A History of the Theatre Costume Business is the first-ever comprehensive book on the subject, as related by award-winning actors and designers, and first hand by the drapers, tailors, and craftspeople who make the clothes that dazzle on stage. Readers will learn why stage clothes are made today, by whom, and how. They will also learn how today’s shops and ateliers arose from the shops and makers who founded the business. This never-before-told story shows that there is as much drama behind the scenes as there is in the performance: famous actors relate their intimate experiences in the fitting room, the glories of gorgeous costumes, and the mortification when things go wrong, while the costume makers explain how famous shows were created with toil, tears, and sweat, and sometimes even a little blood. This is history told by the people who were present at the creation – some of whom are no longer around to tell their own story. Based on original research and first-hand reporting, A History of the Theatre Costume Business is written for theatre professionals: actors, directors, producers, costume makers, and designers. It is also an excellent resource for all theatregoers who have marveled at the gorgeous dresses and fanciful costumes that create the magic on stage, as well as for the next generation of drapers and designers.

The Wardens of Punyu

By: D. L. Kung

Kung delivers a touching story enriched by its strong Hong Kong atmosphere." Publishers Weekly "This is a Hong Kong readers don't come across very often and the author brings the city alive." Chicago Tribune Hong Kong's Lunar New Year break is over and Business World's testy New York editors are howling for more China coverage. Unfortunately, Hong Kong bureau chief Claire Raymond's new colleague Vic has gone missing. Plus, she's contending with a nasty surprise on her doorstep-a Chinese mainland doctor confessing to murder. With only a year to go before Beijing takes over the British colony, China's transition to power is revealing its dark and lawless side. Claire's desperate search to rescue Vic across Hong Kong's border with China leads through the free-for-all landscape of Guangdong's coastal export boom into the murky use of Communist prison labor to feed the organ transplant trade. Meanwhile, Claire's hard-won career in a man's world may be meeting stiff competition for her attention now that she's met the dashing Swiss, Xavier Vonalp, setting up a Hong Kong base for his UN employers.

The Biblical Illustrator - Vol. 45 - Pastoral Commentary on Romans

By: Joseph Exell,Charles Spurgeon,John Calvin,Alexander Maclaren,D.L. Moody

**This ebook version of The Biblical Illustrator - Pastoral Commentary on Romans contains nearly 3800 pages of commentary! What if Charles Spurgeon helped you prepare next Sunday’s sermon? Or what if you could talk over your preaching with Joseph Parker, Richard Baxter, Henry Ward Beecher and H. P. Liddon. Do you think it would make a difference to get the input of some of the greatest preachers who ever lived? That’s precisely what Joseph Exell had in mind when he put together the massive series of volumes called The Biblical Illustrator. In what can only be called a Herculean feat, he spent years gathering preaching notes and sermon outlines from the very best preachers of his day (in the late 1800s and early 1900s), and he did it covering every book of the Bible. And it is amazingly comprehensive. Exell approached his task by taking every verse in the Bible and seeking to discover how it has been preached in the past. Though there is plenty of exegetical material here, this is not primarily a commentary. This series is for preachers, teachers, Bible students and anyone else looking for penetrating pastoral insights from some of the all-time greats of the faith.

With 6th Airborne Division in Palestine 1945-1948

By: Major-General Dare Wilson CBE MC DL FRGS

The 6th Airborne Division was a major element of the British Security Force in Palestine between September, 1945 and May 1948. Faced with the unenviable task of upholding the law in a lawless country, the individual British soldier had to face continual opposition from a hostile Jewish community. This story is described by General Wilson, then a Major, who served with the division during this period. The mission of British forces was simply "to keep the peace". To achieve this goal, the 6th Airborne Division conducted a variety of counter-insurgency operations in both urban and rural environments. These operations were designed to locate illegal arms caches, limit Jewish-Arab violence and capture dissidents who had attacked British positions. The destruction of the King David Hotel, the most famous terrorist attack of the Mandate period, is treated in great detail. With 6th Airborne Division in Palestine 1945 - 48 is a tribute to the British soldier. It is also an excellent case study in unconventional warfare. It will be of great interest to any student of the intricate problem that Palestine presents.

Brunch at Ruby's

By: DL White

Three Friends. One City. Waiting to Exhale in the "A." Brunch at Ruby's is a tale of love, friendship, and unbreakable bonds between women who are like sisters. The women in Debra Macklin’s circle always compliment her on having everything they could want: a successful career, a long marriage to an attentive man, and a happy child. However, none of them know the explosive secret that she keeps tucked away from everyone else. If it were to ever get out, it could shatter the perfect image she has crafted for herself, not to mention destroying both her marriage and career. Maxine Donovan has worked tirelessly to obtain the life she believes she deserves, and she isn't sorry for it. But even with her accomplishments, Maxine still searches for her significant other. A breathtaking yet distant man has caught her eye--only he seems to be preoccupied with someone else. Will Maxine pursue this potential suitor the same way she's chased after everything else in her life? When Renee Gladwell left a life and a loving boyfriend to return to Atlanta, she was hoping to reinvigorate her father and Gladwell Books, a family-owned bookstore. However, four years later, she's mourning the diagnosis of Alzheimer's that is slowly making him forget his past—including her- and the shop that a long way from being able to sell. With her life seemingly stuck in limbo between caring for her dad and wanting something more, Malcolm Brooks enters the picture and brings some light into her darkness. But will love be worth risking a friendship? Brunch at Ruby's is Book 1 in a growing series set in the heart of Decatur, Georgia.
