"Overcoming George"

By Karl C. Schulz

Growing up in Southern California during the Depression within a dysfunctional family controlled by a domineering stepfather was difficult. Here are a few topics: 1. George often bragged: “I got my first piece of ass when I was ten.” 2. Mom thought that it was good for me to see my dead friend lying in a casket. Wrong! 3. I would search the house for mom’s bottles of wine. When I found one, I poured her precious fluid down the drain. 4. As Jennie drove the station wagon, George ran his right hand all the way up her dress. This was very humiliating to me. 5. Three of my childhood friends lost their lives. My dad and one uncle committed suicide. 6. George put the 1938 Oldsmobile in low gear and rammed the big, chrome plated bumper into the right side of the parked car to cave it in. 7. Mom said that she saw George having sex with one of the burros. 8. I just hoped that my arms held out so that I would not drop the whirling "buzz" saw and cause it to shatter. 9. When my car hit the moving train, I was ejected and as I rolled through the weeds I said to myself “you’re dead, Buz.” 10. I lined the wall of the thirty-two foot deep cesspool with loose bricks while never using any safety equipment. 11. As I turned the steering wheel of the Model A to the left, the car landed on its right side. One guy’s head went partially through the cloth roof. 12. We were thirty miles away from the first hydrogen bomb blast. The heat and shock waves were intense. 13. George shot himself in the heart. No one attended his funeral.

CRANIAL ANATOMY OF JACULUS orientalis (RODENTIA, DIPOIDEA): NEW EVIDENCE FOR CLOSE RELATIONSHIP OF DIPODOID AND MUROID RODENTS

By Brian S. Sheets D.O.

Although dipodoids and muroids share many specialized features that indicate their close relationship, there are also some differences. In dipodoids the lateral masseter remains restricted to the ventral part of the zygomatic arch as in protrogomorphs; it does not extend anteriorly as in muroids. The jugal bone retains its primitive anterior extent and reaches the lacrimal bone; in muroids the jugal is greatly reduced in length. Dipodoids have one peculiar characteristic that is not known in other groups of rodents. Within the ventral part of the infraorbital canal a small lamina of bone separates the vessels and nerve from the portion of the medial masseter that is also passing through to reach the rostrum. The combination of characters more primitive than those in muroids and the presence of the unique, specialized condition of the infraorbital canal show that although dipodoids may be closely related to muroids, they cannot have evolved from any known member of that group.

Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS)

By Stanley R Kay, Ph.D, Lewis A Opler, Ph.D. and Abraham Fiszbein, M.D.

The PANSS is based on findings that schizophrenia comprises at least two distinct syndromes. The positive syndrome, consisting of productive symptoms, and the negative syndrome, consisting of deficit features. This distinction is useful when developing treatment plans because you can focus on the type of symptoms the patient is experiencing. It is also useful when studying the effects of medication (eg in clinical drug trials) because it allows you to determine which types of symptoms are being affected. You have the option of using the standard Dimensional scoring or the new Pentagonal method of scoring. The Pentagonal model is the result of recent research. It uses 25 PANSS items organised into five sacles. Negative, Positive, Dysphoric Mood, Activation and Autistic Preoccupation.

Treason

By Ralph Boryszewski

The Founders often engaged in treason. To make sure nobody would ever be charge and convicted, limitations were placed in the Constitution to prevent enforcement. Since all officials have never been under a "constitutional" oath that commands obedience, nor a provision that would cover a broad and general meaning of the word treason, our Founders and those who followed have had unlimited opportunities to escape charges and punishment for many treasonous acts against the American people.

The Constitution That Never Was

By Ralph Boryszewski

By corruptive usurpations lawyers have been able to slip in and out of the cracks of the Constitution to become our masters. The consolidated judiciary of federal and state lawyers reconizes no bounds. With a simple decision with Eminent Domain, they as a legal team have turned the Constitution into an instrument of greed and terror. This book is intended to educate Americans to prevent tyranny.

" Satisfaction of the Soul "

By Rev. Dr. Jacqueline E. McCullough

When looking at the condition of our world, it's not difficult to notice that people are seriously deficient of a genuine display of love. Because of that, people are often compelled to try and find love by drastic means. Many people try to satisfy themselves with illicit sex, drugs, fame, fortune, and power to fill that void. Their search unfortunately leads them down a spiraling path to even greater feelings of emptiness, rendering the whole quest hopeless. Although it may sound supercilious, there is only One who holds the exclusive rights to bring satisfaction to your soul---Jesus Christ.

"A Fire in the Mind"

By Stephen Larsen, Robin Larsen

Joesph Campbell forged an approach to the study of myth and legend that made ancient traditions and beliefs immediate, relevant and universal. His work as a teacher and author, and his immensely popular interviews with Bill Moyers, made him an icon to those who look to the ancient understanding embodied in myth for guidance in their encounter with the great mysteries of existence: birth, growth, the development of the soul, and death. His lifelong interest in the subject began with a boyhood fascination for American Indian mythology and continued through his undergraduage career at Columbia, his exposure to the 1920s avant-garde movements in Germany and Paris, and his 38 years of teaching at Sarah Lawrence. The interaction of influence between Campbell and the leading intellectual, artistic and spiritual leaders of the 20th century included figures such as Jiddu Krishnamurti, Adelle Davis, John Steinbeck, Heinrich Zimmer, Maya Deren, Carl Jung, Robert Bly, and George Lucas, to name only a few.

The Properties of Water and their Role in Colloidal and Biological Systems, Volume 16 (Interface Science and Technology) (Interfac

By Carel Jan van Oss

This book treats the different current as well as unusual and hitherto often unstudied physico-chemical and surface-thermodynamic properties of water that govern all polar interactions occurring in it. These properties include the hyper-hydrophobicity of the water-air interface, the cluster formation of water molecules in the liquid state and the concomitant variability of the ratio of the electron-accepticity to electron-donicity of liquid water as a function of temperature, T. The increase of that ratio with T is the cause of the increase in hydration repulsion ("hydration pressure") between polar surfaces upon heating, when they are immersed in water. The book also treats the surface properties of apolar and polar molecules, polymers, particles and cells, as well as their mutual interaction energies, when immersed in water, under the influence of the three prevailing non-covalent forces, i.e., Lewis acid-base (AB), Lifshitz-van der Waals (LW) and electrical double layer (EL) interactions. The polar AB interactions, be they attractive or repulsive, typically represent up to 90% of the total interaction energies occurring in water. Thus the addition of AB energies to the LW + EL energies of the classical DLVO theory of energy vs. distance analysis makes this powerful tool (the Extended DLVO theory) applicable to the quantitative study of the stability of particle suspensions in water. The influence of AB forces on the interfacial tension between water and other condensed-phase materials is stressed and serves, inter alia, to explain, measure and calculate the driving force of the hydrophobic attraction between such materials (the "hydrophobic effect"), when immersed in water. These phenomena, which are typical for liquid water, influence all polar interactions that take place in it. All of these are treated from the viewpoint of the properties of liquid water itself, including the properties of advancing freezing fronts and the surface properties of ice at 0o C.

Interfacial Forces in Aqueous Media, Second Edition

By Carel J. van Oss

Interfacial Forces in Aqueous Media examines the role of polar interfacial and noncovalent interactions among biological and nonbiological macromolecules as well as biopolymers, particles, surfaces, cells, and both polar and apolar polymers. The new edition includes four previously unpublished chapters on interfacial properties and structure of liquid water; new material throughout the text on the interplay between macroscopic-scale repulsions and microscopic-scale attractions in protein adsorption; and new chapters covering interfacial tension determination and examining the kinetics and energetics of protein adsorption onto metal oxide surfaces.
