From culture shock to cone-shell poison, what better way to experience the highs and lows of global ocean travel than through the words of the captain's mate, mother of two teenaged boys. Lona Gray chronicled every aspect of their sailing adventure from how to find and prepare meals, how to repair engines, how to avoid monsoons, how to educate teenagers, and how to stay sane living in small quarters far from all the comforts of stateside living. Through Lona's words, we see and feel Captain Bobby's frustrations and triumphs, we meet their new friends, and we experience the rush of unexpected weather. "Caught by the Lure of the Sea is a compelling and realistic account for anyone considering taking the leap of faith to follow a romantic dream." -Cathie Katz, author of Sierra Club's Nature a Day at a Time: An Uncommon Look At Common Wildlife. "If you've ever dreamt of sailing around the world, family in tow, this is the vicarious trip of a lifetime." -Carole Kotkin, co-author MMMMiami-Tempting Tropical Tastes for Home Cooks Everywhere; food editor Travellady.com and free-lance travel writer. " you should read the adventures of Bobbie and Lona Gray aboard the sailing vessel Immanuel they met priests and pirates and braved stormy seas to bring you a story you'll not forget." -John A. Brennan, former Commodore of the Coconut Grove Sailing Club

A Step by Step Approach to the Modeling of Chemical Engineering Processes

Using Excel for simulation

By: Liliane Maria Ferrareso Lona

This book treats modeling and simulation in a simple way, that builds on the existing knowledge and intuition of students. They will learn how to build a model and solve it using Excel. Most chemical engineering students feel a shiver down the spine when they see a set of complex mathematical equations generated from the modeling of a chemical engineering system. This is because they usually do not understand how to achieve this mathematical model, or they do not know how to solve the equations system without spending a lot of time and effort. Trying to understand how to generate a set of mathematical equations to represent a physical system (to model) and solve these equations (to simulate) is not a simple task. A model, most of the time, takes into account all phenomena studied during a Chemical Engineering course. In the same way, there is a multitude of numerical methods that can be used to solve the same set of equations generated from the modeling, and many different computational languages can be adopted to implement the numerical methods. As a consequence of this comprehensiveness and combinatorial explosion of possibilities, most books that deal with this subject are very extensive and embracing, making need for a lot of time and effort to go through this subject. It is expected that with this book the chemical engineering student and the future chemical engineer feel motivated to solve different practical problems involving chemical processes, knowing they can do that in an easy and fast way, with no need of expensive software.

Blue Mist

By: Lona Lang

Danielle is the inquisitive, impressionable daughter of an affluent religious black family living in LeBluff, Louisiana. Her placid childhood is disrupted when her much older sister's boyfriend, James, seduces her. To conceal an illegitimate pregnancy by him she marries and as a result soon becomes victim to his unpredictable temper and deviant sexual appetite. Each time she thinks she is gaining control and will escape she is deceived yet again and sinks deeper into her husband's web of debauchery. Finally, putting everything on the line she unsuccessfully plots to kill him. Fortunately, a lenient judge gives her a second chance, but the shame and guilt of her past continues to be a shadow she can' t lose. Will she ever believe in love and trust again? Blue Mist is about conquering despite the worst circumstances and learning that the past does not have to control the future.

From Away

By: Lona Rubenstein

For centuries descendants of East Hampton settlers have been calling outsiders people from away. This is the story of one invading family and the baggage they brought with them--gambling, politics, big deal real estate, bar mitzvahs, philosophy, philandering and the hope for a better life in a small town.
