Book Description
At age eleven, Jerry raced the 1949 Soap Box Derby in Des Moines, Iowa. Jerry was disqualified when forced to leave his lane trying to avoid a collision with the driver in the center lanes. This contestants steering cable broke, he lost control crashed into the fence and broke a spectator's leg. At thirteen, Jerry's family moved to Alliance Nebraska; later they moved to La Canada California. Jerry worked summers for his dad. At sixteen he saved money to buy a 1941 Chevy coupe for $350. He joined the Navy at seventeen and during that time, saved enough money to buy a 1956 Chevy and began racing it at the San Fernando Drag Strip. Over his life, he worked in the car business, material handling business, sold advertising and worked as a commercial diver and sailor for both Hawaii, and Washington University. On a skiing trip in Idaho, Jerry met his wife Carol and they married in 1982. The two of them attended Bible school in Ventura CA, thinking they would enter the Missionary field. However, God had other plans! They ended up serving the Lord 2-1/2 miles from their home directing the Oxnard Rescue Mission. Jerry served as President CEO of the Rescue Mission Alliance for 14 yrs. After retiring, Jerry never lost his boyhood passion for racing. "Once a racer always a racer; it's in my blood" Jerry's passion for racing is only exceeded by the burden God has given him to warn Christians of the deception being taught today by false teachers. The world is rapidly changing, as evidence by the unrest in Europe, the middle-east, wars, earthquakes and Tsunami's, we're living in the generation of the fig tree. The sign on Jerry's hotrod reads: Don't be a... Stupidbaker "NOW, LEARN THE PARABLE OF THE "FIG TREE"

With Her Own Eyes
Author: Emily SampsonPublisher: Univ. of Tennessee Press
ISBN: 9781572334465
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
Working in isolation on a Connecticut farm, Julia Smith (1792–1886) translated the Bible into English. She was the only woman to translate the entire Bible, but her work has been alternately ignored or disparaged by subsequent biblical scholars. This is in part because no English translation other than the King James Version attracted significant attention until the appearance of the Revised Standard Version in 1952.In With Her Own Eyes, Emily Sampson argues that Smith’s work anticipated trends followed by later, usually male, translators and that she deserves recognition as a pioneering and influential biblical scholar in her own right. Smith was the daughter of a preacher and lawyer and a mother who wrote poetry and studied linguistics, mathematics, and astronomy. When William Miller’s predictions of the end of the world failed, she began translating for herself from the original languages. Trained in Greek and Latin, Smith taught herself Hebrew and ultimately produced five translations. In 1876 Smith published a very literal translation at her own expense. She hoped not only that her Bible would reveal additions made to the King James Version but that her work would help bolster the case that women were, in many respects, the equal of men. Sampson also details Smith’s striking personal history. She and her four sisters were seen as eccentrics in the small town of Glastonbury. They were active in the abolitionist movement in the decades before the Civil War and later in the temperance and women’s suffrage movements. Smith attended the first meeting of the Association of the Advancement of Women, and she and her sister Abby became famous in Connecticut for their refusal to pay taxes until given the right to vote in town meetings.A comprehensive look at the intellectual, social, and political circles of Julia Smith, With Her Own Eyes is a singular portrait of one of the most remarkable autodidacts in the history of American intellectual life.
Optimal Interconnection Trees in the Plane
Author: Marcus BrazilPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319139150
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
This book explores fundamental aspects of geometric network optimisation with applications to a variety of real world problems. It presents, for the first time in the literature, a cohesive mathematical framework within which the properties of such optimal interconnection networks can be understood across a wide range of metrics and cost functions. The book makes use of this mathematical theory to develop efficient algorithms for constructing such networks, with an emphasis on exact solutions. Marcus Brazil and Martin Zachariasen focus principally on the geometric structure of optimal interconnection networks, also known as Steiner trees, in the plane. They show readers how an understanding of this structure can lead to practical exact algorithms for constructing such trees. The book also details numerous breakthroughs in this area over the past 20 years, features clearly written proofs, and is supported by 135 colour and 15 black and white figures. It will help graduate students, working mathematicians, engineers and computer scientists to understand the principles required for designing interconnection networks in the plane that are as cost efficient as possible.
