Lights

Editura: PLEASURE BOAT STUDIO

Anul aparitiei: 2020

*LIGHTS zine is a new outlet for a variety of local and Pleasure Boat Studio talents to showcase their work, providing another forum for creativity & community. Behind the name: When first coming up with the name for this collective way to publish more people, and without the gambling nature of worrying about reviews and success for authors, as well as a way to brand and get more widely known in Seattle and beyond, I was thinking of one word possibilities, starting with boat related ideas as a connection to 'Pleasure Boat': mast, anchor, waves, skiff, oar, etc. Then, 'lights' came to me simple as that and I liked it and stuck with it. Then, I got to thinking of forms of light, natural and electrical, and the feeling and meanings "Light" can evoke; by what light is cast, by which angle and direction; and what lights can show or reveal, reflect or bare witness to. Lights illuminate the dark so we can see where we're going, and see where we are. So, take a glimpse and a ponder into what these contributors want to show you, for what they may put a spotlight on in our lit up world, however dark it might get sometimes.

B-25 Mitchell Vs Japanese Destroyer: Battle of the Bismarck Sea 1943

Editura: OSPREY PUB INC

Anul aparitiei: 2021

The Battle of the Bismarck Sea was one of the most decisive naval battles of World War II and this highly illustrated study details the three-day fight which shaped the outcome of the war. Throughout the first year of the war in the Pacific during World War II the USAAF was relatively ineffective against ships. Indeed, warships in particular proved to be too elusive for conventional medium-level bombing. High-level attacks wasted bombs, and torpedo attacks required extensive training. But as 1942 closed, the Fifth Air Force developed new weapons and new tactics that were not just effective, they were deadly. A maintenance officer assigned to a B-25 unit found a way to fill the bombardier's position with four 0.50-cal machine guns and strap an additional four 0.50s to the sides of the bomber, firing forward. Additionally, skip-bombing was developed. This called for mast-top height approaches flying the length of the target ship. If the bombs missed the target, they exploded in the water close enough to crush the sides. The technique worked perfectly when paired with "strafe" B-25s. Over the first two months of 1943, squadrons perfected these tactics. Then, in early March, Japan ...

Key Words: The Impact on Bible Translation

Editura: XULON PR

Anul aparitiei: 2020

What defines success? What about success in missions? What does that definition look like in God's eyes? The answers are within scripture, but seeing how that is demonstrated in today's missional landscape of larger goals is a challenge as we continue to define success in Western business model existence. Key Words explores the changes taking place in Bible translation today and how a team of unexpected missionaries were called to the task of mobilizing the world for a new methodology called MAST (Mobilized Assistance Supporting Translation). While this team reached over fifteen-hundred languages in under five years, spanning some of the most difficult populations in the most difficult locations, it is not the numeric accomplishments that defined success. This journey in missions expresses the nature of success in terms of the key words that God brings for success and how they were used. For those who serve anyone in any capacity, it is these same words put into practice that can make success happen in transformational ways. Dan Kramer worked as faculty at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan, as well as in K-12 public education. In the fall of 2009, he accepted a call to ...

Neutrophil Function in Health and Disease

Editura: FOSTER ACADEMICS

Anul aparitiei: 2020

Neutrophils are the most abundant kind of granulocytes and white blood cells in humans. They are an integral part of the innate immune system. Neutrophils are the first inflammatory cells to migrate to a site of injury following trauma. Often they require assistance from other types of immune cells in order to resolve certain infections. The cytokines expressed by activated mast cells, endothelium and macrophages cause neutrophils to congregate at a focus of infection. These neutrophils release cytokines which amplify the inflammatory responses generated by other cells. Through the processes of degranulation, phagocytosis and generation of neutrophil extracellular traps, neutrophils directly attack the invading pathogens. Neutropenia or low neutrophil count makes an individual susceptible to infections. Abnormal neutrophil function leads to excessive tissue damage, disruption of pulmonary barrier, hyperglycemia, etc. This book provides comprehensive insights into the clinical frontiers and functions of neutrophils in health and disease. It will also provide interesting topics for research, which interested readers can take up. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of ...
