And violence, blackmail and intrigue break out in the worlds of big business and international politics with a terrifying, nerve-wracking rapidity.John and Alice Tanner are one of three families in Saddle Valley on a summer Sunday - relaxed, happy, successful families - who are planning a reunion with a fourth - the Osterman's weekend. All three are buzzed by a patrol car, spoiling well-earned peace. It spells the beginning of a terrifying, murderous conspiracy which envelopes them all, making friend indistinguishable from foe as CIA agents battle to the death with Communist saboteurs.James Matlock, M.A. Ph.D. is Professor at Connecticut's Carlyle University. He has been singled out by the U.S. Government as the key to breaking a national conspiracy which will have appalling consequences. Carlyle - the quiet traditional 'prestige' campus - is 'a time bomb which, when detonated, would claim some extraordinary victims in its fall-out.' Matlock's entrance ticket to the conspiracy spells violence, terror - and death.December 1939. A specially-commandeered freight train is loaded at night by priests with a cargo of ancient papers so explosive, so dangerous in content, that those who travel with them die, on orders, by their own hand. The secret of such terrible, disruptive material is passed down to twin grandsons born under the sign of Gemini to become a catalyst for a mutual hatred that could plunge the world into a war even more divisive than that already breaking over lately
E=MC2: Simple Physics: Why Balloons Rise, Apples Fall & Golf BallsGo Awry
Jeff Stewart - 2010
With amusing examples from film, TV, and history, learn how physics affects everything in your surroundings--without the use of mind-bending math or the need for a particle accelerator. With E=MC2, you'll learn: When forces balance: Simple answers to questions such as, "Why do balloons rise while apples fall?" The Good, the Bad, and the Impossible: Why The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly is full of absurdities. (For someone whose characters often uphold the law, Clint Eastwood certainly defies the laws of physics in this film.) AC/DC: but only AC really rocks: Alternating current (AC) is much more complicated than direct current (DC). The voltage is constantly moving between positive and negative; the current therefore flows one way, and then the other (rocking back and forth). Why do I feel this warm glow?: The theory behind how the first stars were born General Relativity and GPS: The strange result of gravity on time is well proven. Compared to the interminable time you experience while stuck in a traffic jam, time literally runs faster (because gravity is weaker) in the orbiting GPS satellites that help your GPS system get its fix. At the speed of light: A refresher on the theory of relativity and an understanding of why--a hundred years later--Einstein's physics still points the way in cutting-edge research. Yu again: In the martial arts movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the rebellious young heroine, Jen Yu, blocks an attacker with her hand without standing or bracing herself. All the while, she holds a cup of tea in her other hand and doesn't spill a drop. Find out why kinetic energy and scalar quantity make her move impossible. It's physics for the rest of us. So why not come along for the ride? Advance at the speed of light through the fundamental laws of physics as they were discovered, proven wrong, and revolutionized. Make this and all of the Blackboard Books(tm) a permanent fixture on your shelf, and you'll have instant access to a breadth of knowledge. Whether you need homework help or want to win that trivia game, this series is the trusted source for fun facts.
