Maryland, Virginia, and Washington D.C. Warbird Survivors 2003

A Handbook on Where to Find Them

By: Harold A. Skaarup

North America is replete in aviation history, both military and civilian. The sheer size of the United States dictated an early interest in air defense and profoundly influenced the nations dependence on air travel. It is no wonder that the United States developed as an air-faring nation. A large part of the leadership that contributed to that development can be traced to Americas Air Force. Indeed, its proud military heritage is embodied in the dedicated individuals who have served and continue to do soand in the marvelous aircraft they have flown. The preservation and public display of these aircraft is a labor of love for many, including the editor of this book. If you are an enthusiast of military aviation history, or one with a passing interest who simply wishes to learn more, you will find a wealth of information in these well-researched pages.

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Seeing Sociologically

The Routine Grounds of Social Action

By: Harold Garfinkel,Anne Rawls,Charles C. Lemert

This book-never before published-is eminent sociologist Harold Garfinkel's earliest attempt, while at Harvard in 1948, to bridge the growing gap in American sociology. This gap was generated by a Parsonian paradigm that emphasised a scientific approach to sociological description, one that increasingly distanced itself from social phenomena in the increasingly influential ways studied by phenomenologists. It was Garfinkel's idea that phenomenological description, rendered in more empirical and interactive terms, might remedy shortcomings in the reigning Parsonian view. Garfinkel soon gave up the attempt to repair scientific description, and his focus became increasingly empirical until, in 1954, he famously coined the term "Ethnomethodology." However, in this early manuscript can be seen more clearly than in some of his later work the struggle with a conceptual and positivist rendering of social relations that ultimately informed Garfinkel's position. Here we find the sources of his turn toward ethnomethodology, which would influence subsequent generations of sociologists. Essential reading for all social theory scholars and graduate students and for a wider range of social scientists in anthropology, ethnomethodology, and other fields.

IN JULY OF 2007, the IAEA confirmed that North Korea had started to shut down its main nuclear plant at Pyongsong. It is hoped they will continue to dismantle their nuclear weapons. Sergeant Mac Erick recovered from his gunshot wounds and the infection that ravaged his body. However, the infection did damage his heart. He spent several weeks in the hospital before receiving a medical discharge. His best buddy Sergeant Leyton Wesley accompanied him back to his hometown in Melbourne, Florida where he continues to undergo therapy for his left shoulder. He is working as a video and camera communications expert with one of the major broadcast affiliates in his hometown. Sergeant Billy John later transferred to the U.S. base in Germany where he continues to develop his special expertise in explosives. He is recognized among the top five demolitions experts in the world. Sergeant Leyton Wesley completed his tour of duty in South Korea. For a short time he preformed contractual work for the U.S. Army. He has since moved back to his home state of Texas in Richardson where he operates a successful camera and photography shop. He is married and looking forward to his new baby. Greco Mohammed has retired or at least that what he says at the moment. This time might, however, be different. With Maria, his wife, they live in Georgetown with twin boys who both have their mothers famous blue eyes.

The Challenge of the 21st Century

Managing Technology and Ourselves in a Shrinking World

By: Harold A. Linstone,Ian I. Mitroff

The population and technology explosions are shrinking the world to a system in which everything is interactive, forcing us to transcend traditional modes of thinking. In this book, the authors set forth the concept of multiple perspectives: technical, organizational, and personal. They begin the book with a multiple-perspective examination of the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska, a case that foreshadows the intensifying problem of managing hazardous technology in the coming decades. They then apply this approach, on a much larger scale, to the United States in the evolving global setting. Included in the discussion are issues such as the balance between short-term and long-term concerns and between individual and societal responsibilities. The interdependence and inseparability of the three perspectives is reflected in the focus on technological superiority, organizational rethinking, and imaginative personal leadership. This book will help managers and students in business, engineering, science, and policymaking break away from exclusive concern with the technical perspective and thus help prepare them for the challenges of a new era.

The Circle

A Science Fiction Thriller

By: Harold R. Watson

The Circle moves the reader forward to the year 2029, just before the start of the world's greatest holocaust, called the Battle of Armageddon. Beginning in the Middle East, the Battle spreads rapidly around the globe until the military forces of Earth are rendered helpless. The Jihad is influenced by extra-terrestrial forces with weapons far more deadly than those devised by man. All would be lost if not for the Toren Empire, which furnishes space ships enabling approximately 160,000 people to be removed from Earth in time to avoid their demise. The evil forces of the Atlantean Empire make sure that all humans who remained on Earth perish so they can claim the planet for their empire. The last of the Earthlings spend more than twenty years preparing for the time when they can return to Earth. Although they face overwhelming odds, the survivors return with some surprises of their own to confront the evildoers in a final conflict where the winner takes all.

World leaders were forced to cooperate with each other in order to rebuild a new economy. Over the next millennium, this new structure evolved into what became a world with two classes of people. An elite ruling class and a commoner working class. The presence of evil was still very alive. This evil regime oppressed the commoners, stealing the wisdom, the wealth, and the young women. By the year 3030, corruption and injustice had reached its zenith. The time had come for an ancient prophecy to be fulfilled. Planet Earth would be redeemed. Mesmerrium, the harbingers of love, inhabit the cosmic parallel. For thousands of years they have waited for this redemption and its leader. Now it was becoming a reality. And so it was that twelve-year old James Clark, fifty three girls, and the mesmerrium, overthrew this evil regime. Using weapons of love, this redemption replaced the corruption. An ancient serenity returned. Love and truth rule again. Every teen, young adult, and young in heart, should read this book. The world is changing. With love, you can make those changes good. Let this book inspire you to make a difference now.

Three Napoleonic Battles

By: Harold T. Parker

This narrative account of three Napoleonic battles adheres rather closely to the Aristotelian configuration of evolving tragedy. The historian succeeds in presenting herein events and character not only in historical reality but also in unities employed by the artist or tragedian. For a beginning of this lively, military story, Harold T. Parker chooses a portrayal of Napoleon at the height of his power, the battle of Friedland. The middle episode is concerned with Napoleon in his first serious personal check, the battle of Aspern-Essling. To complete the unity and to conclude the tragic progression, the author resurveys the episode of Napoleon's final defeat at the battle of Waterloo.

They Are Soldiers

They Are Soldiers

By: Harold Coyle

From Harold Coyle, the New York Times bestselling author of Twice the Citizen, comes the fourth book in the Nathan Dixon series: They Are Soldiers They are your neighbor and the person who delivers your mail. They teach your children and build your homes. Every day you see them but do not notice them, that is not until they are needed. Only when disasters strike, whether it be natural or man made do they become something quite different, something more than a fellow citizen. Throughout our nation's history they have been called many things; the militia, the home guard, the National Guard. But regardless of their title they have always been unique, something more than ordinary people. Their willingness to be both a good citizen in peace and a warrior when called upon make them soldiers. The nature of the mission, to man a security zone that separates the nation of Israel from the newly created Palestinian state present him and the Guardsmen of Company A with a unique set of problems few are able to predict. Together the professional officer and the citizen soldiers he leads must find a way to navigate their way toward an uncertain future in a troubled land. Part of that future involves dealing with those who are determined to use the arrival of the Americans to further their own political and personal goals. One of these men is Hammed Kamel, a microbiologist who seizes upon the introduction of American forces in a place some still call the Holy Lands as an opportunity to strike a telling blow against the two nations who have oppressed his people, the Palestinians for decades. Together with a crops of like minded men, Kamel sets in motion a train of events that places the citizen soldiers of Bedlow, Virginia and their community on the other side of the world in jeopardy. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Fatherless Fatherhood

Overcoming and Becoming Without a Blueprint

By: Harold Labron

In this thought-provoking, conscience-stirring work, Harold Labron has put together a concise but thorough read that will not only provide its reader with a mental tool, but also a spiritual connection. Through this heart-felt literary effort, the cries of many children are heralded and the true manhood of this generation is challenged. The author offers an array of erect thoughts and penetrating feelings generated by real life experience. Most importantly, he acknowledges and recommends a reliable source that should serve as a “bridge” for all fatherless fathers. A bridge that can stand up to any storm, cross any river, and will undeniably outlast the sands of time. A grain of sand, a moment in time, among the blessed, and aware of the source of all that which is divine.
