You Can't See Me, But I'm Here

A Haunting in Centrahoma

By: Jason R. Taylor

You can''t see me, but I''m here," This non-fiction account, is a fascinating look into the world of the paranormal as seen through the eyes of the author. Having investigated and experienced the wrath of the spirit who calls himself "Michael," I was able to understand, with an open mind, what the world of spirits, is truly about. Being on the front lines with an unseen force that has the ability to hurl objects through the air at people, with the accuracy of today''s most precisely guided missiles, would fascinate even the most hardened skeptics and paranormal investigators. The experiences that I had at the Mcwethy home, can only be described as "INCREDIBLE." This once skeptic turned believer still cannot fathom the powers of the spirit world, but certainly do believe in them. The book takes you on a play by play account of the paranormal activity as it unfolds, gives the reactions of those who were present, and finally, culminates into a theory of what I, the author believes is the reason why the unseen entity has chosen to haunt the Mcwethy family. This experience has been the catalyst to a life forever changed.

Water from Stone

Archaeology and Conservation at Florida's Springs

By: Jason O'Donoughue

A research tour de force that seamlessly melds archaeology, geology, ecology, environmental history, and a contemporary conservation ethic. Not only is this volume a must read for scholars interested in Florida’s past, but it is one that deserves to be read by anyone interested in Florida’s threatened environments."—T. R. Kidder, Director of the Washington University in St. Louis Geoarchaeology Lab "O'Donoughue writes thoughtfully and poetically about Florida’s geological history and long-term patterns of environmental change and cultural adaptation. A compelling case for the relevance of archaeology to current environmental concerns."—Christopher B. Rodning, coeditor of Fort San Juan and the Limits of Empire "Examines Florida’s critically important springs and discusses how they were used and modified over thousands of years by local inhabitants, placing the springs in a deep historic context while offering well-informed suggestions for their long-term management and use."—David G. Anderson, coeditor of Archaeology of the Mid-Holocene Southeast Throughout their history, Florida's springs have been gathering places for far-flung peoples. In Water from Stone, Jason O'Donoughue discusses the genesis of springs and their role as sites of habitation, burials, ritualized feasting, and monument building for Florida's earliest peoples. O'Donoughue moves beyond a focus on the ecological roles of springs and the popular image of springs as timeless and pristine--approaches taken by many archaeologists and conservationists. Instead, he foregrounds the social and historical importance of springs and their ongoing use as gathering places that draw people for ritual purposes even today. This archaeological viewpoint creates a bridge between past and present, encouraging conservation efforts that focus on the intrinsic value of springs as places of personal experience and social interaction with deep historical significance. To save the springs, O'Donoughue argues, we must recognize the relevance of the past to the problems Florida's artesian springs face today.

I Kept My Promise

My Story of Holocaust Survival

By: Jacob Birnbaum,Jason R. Taylor

Memoirs of Birnbaum (b. 1922), a Polish Jew who lived in Piotrków Trybunalski and in Dąbrowa Gornicza. In 1942 he was sent to the Anhalt labor camp near Auschwitz, and then to five other labor camps: Markstadt, Ludwigsdorf (a munitions factory), Graditz, Langenbielau, and Faulbrück. At the last two camps he was sent to work in a parachute factory. There, he was sentenced to death by a German civil court for arson, but the SS claimed jurisdiction over him because he was a number and not a person, thereby saving him. He was liberated by the Russians in May 1945 and emigrated to the U.S. in 1949. An appendix on pp. 153-174 relates the fate of the Piotrkow Jews in the Holocaust.

Modern Popular Theatre

By: Jason Price

This book offers a concise history of popular theatre since the early twentieth century. Using key popular culture theories and critical perspectives, Jason Price analyses popular theatres across different cultural and political contexts, drawing on a diverse range of international artists and theatre-makers who have worked with popular forms, including Vsevolod Meyerhold, Blue Blouse, Bertolt Brecht, Erwin Piscator, the San Francisco Mime Troupe, the Bread and Puppet Theatre and more. As well as defining what 'popular' means in relation to performance and the audiences who watch it, the book considers some of the political frameworks and causes that popular theatre has been placed in service of, such as socialism, the New Left and the gay rights movement. It also addresses the uses of cabaret, puppetry and circus outside their native popular contexts, examining the role they play in avant-garde and experimental theatre practices. In doing so, Price encourages readers to look beyond popular theatre as a simple form of entertainment and to consider its potential as a form of political activism, as a community-builder, and as a valuable tool for artistic experimentation.

Fault Covering Problems in Reconfigurable VLSI Systems

By: Ran Libeskind-Hadas,Nany Hasan,Jingsheng Jason Cong,Philip McKinley,C.L. Liu

Fault Covering Problems in Reconfigurable VLSI Systems describes the authors' recent research on reconfiguration problems for fault-tolerance in VLSI and WSI Systems. The book examines solutions to a number of reconfiguration problems. Efficient algorithms are given for tractable covering problems and general techniques are given for dealing with a large number of intractable covering problems. The book begins with an investigation of algorithms for the reconfiguration of large redundant memories. Next, a number of more general covering problems are considered and the complexity of these problems is analyzed. Finally, a general and uniform approach is proposed for solving a wide class of covering problems. The results and techniques described here will be useful to researchers and students working in this area. As such, the book serves as an excellent reference and may be used as the text for an advanced course on the topic.

Ecosystem-Based Fisheries Management

Ecosystem-Based Fisheries Management

Progress, Importance, and Impacts in the United States

By: Jason S. Link,Anthony R. Marshak

Ecosystem-based fishery management (EBFM) is rapidly becoming the default approach in global fisheries management. The clarity of what EBFM means is sharpening each year and there is now a real need to evaluate progress and assess the effectiveness and impacts. By examining a suite of over 90 indicators (including socioeconomic, governance, environmental forcing, major pressures, systems ecology, and fisheries criteria) for 9 major US fishery ecosystem jurisdictions, the authors systematically track the progress the country has made towards advancing EBFM and making it an operational reality. The assessment covers a wide range of data in both time (multiple decades) and space (from the tropics to the poles, representing over 10% of the world's ocean surface area). The authors view progress towards the implementation of EBFM as synonymous with improved management of living marine resources in general, and highlight the findings from a national perspective. Although US-centric, the lessons learned are directly applicable for all parts of the global ocean. Much work remains, but significant progress has already been made to better address many of the challenges facing the sustainable management of our living marine resources. This is an essential and accessible reference for all fisheries professionals who are currently practicing, or progressing towards, ecosystem-based fisheries management. It will also be of relevance and use to researchers, teachers, managers, and graduate students in marine ecology, fisheries biology, biological oceanography, global change biology, conservation biology, and marine resource management.
