Fattburger: One of a Kind (New cassette)

This long-awaited work from one of the world's most respected scientists presents a series of dramatic discoveries never before made public. Starting from a collection of simple computer experiments---illustrated in the book by striking computer graphics---Wolfram shows how their unexpected results force a whole new way of looking at the operation of our universe. Wolfram uses his approach to tackle a remarkable array of fundamental problems in science: from the origin of the Second Law of thermodynamics, to the development of complexity in biology, the computational limitations of mathematics, the possibility of a truly fundamental theory of physics, and the interplay between free will and determinism. Written with exceptional clarity, and illustrated by more than a thousand original pictures, this seminal book allows scientists and non-scientists alike to participate in what promises to be a major intellectual revolution.

Rapid One-of-a-kind Product Development discusses research in the development of new enabling technologies for small and medium companies. Scientific advancements presented include a novel product data modelling scheme to model product design, manufacturability and knowledge under a common data object; customised product development in a distributed environment; and new adaptive scheduling methods for the optimal production of a wide variety of customised products, taking into consideration all of the possible changes from customers and the uncertainties in manufacturing.The book also includes research towards a computer aided customer interface, which allows customer requirements and changes to be processed and integrated with technical designs in real time; adaptive and concurrent CAD methods and algorithms; and product modelling and system integration technologies. The reader will learn how to:. translate customer requirements to technical attributes;. develop new and innovative products to meet customer r

Despite the numerous competitive advantages of one-of-a-kind production (OKP), the low efficiency and high costs associated with OKP companies threaten to push their business opportunities into the hands of cheaper overseas suppliers. One-of-a-Kind Production introduces a novel strategy and technology to help OKP companies to efficiently mass-produce customized products. In One-of-a-Kind Production, case studies from OKP companies are used to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the OKP strategy and technology. These case studies include: a structural steel construction company, a manufacturer of specifically ordered compressors and refrigeration systems, a customized high pressure vessel manufacturing company, anda custom window and door manufacturer.To help readers understand OKP strategy and technology, the authors offer a year’s free access to the OKP Management and Control Software System. This system is based on a new integrated production control and management concept, namely product production structure. It is a useful tool – and One-of-a-Kind Production is a valuable guide – for production engineers and managerial staff in manufacturing companies, as well as for university researchers and graduate students.

"[Griffin is] a budding name in mainstream African American fiction." --Chicago magazine After her father's death, Emily Yancy agrees to move back to the dead-end town she grew up in.

Everyone wants to get in on the action when a unique 1873-S silver dollar is put up for auction at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York. With huge amounts of money at stake the auction turns into a multimedia event where the fabulously rich mingle with con men and scam artists. Among the players are Lord and Lady Welton; ex-union boss, Salvatore Corelli and his daughter, Lucia; business tycoon Adam Sloan; and Howie Roth, a small-time coin dealer, whose scheme to own the coin doesn't even involve bidding. As lives collide during the four days of lot viewing, romance blooms, hostilities flare, and unlikely alliances form. By the time the auction starts on Sunday, Adam has learned the importance of family and heritage, Corelli and Howie have devised a can't-miss scheme to switch the silver dollar for a fake one, and Howie and Lucia are engaged.

Conservative spokesman, author and pastor Dr. Joel C. Hunter forges a new path with A New Kind of Conservative. Hunter takes a provocative look at how faith and politics have interacted in America, giving civic-minded people a balanced and biblically-based approach to political involvement. The author speaks as a conservative Christian with traditional biblical stands regarding abortion and homosexuality, but expands it to include other biblical concerns, such as the environment, poverty, justice issues, AIDS, etc. This is not the ideology and rhetoric associated with the extreme religious right, but rather a broader look at politics that the Bible would have us address. Hunter shows how religion and politics do not have to be at odds with one another, and offers the information and motivation needed to take responsible action. Can a Christian/biblical worldview effectively mesh with postmodern society and secular government? Should Christians be involved in political action and, if so, how? How can Christians more effectively relate and present their faith in the context of contemporary and political society? Readers, regardless of their beliefs, will find this thoughtful, helpful and compelling reading.

“But the impact of these faces and the bodies is jarring, even alienating. Thesitters’ motivations for these enormous changes are undoubtedly personal anddeeply felt, but the enormity of that transgressive action challenges us as theviewer to sort out our own ideas about beauty and gender.”—W.M. HuntAre we at a point in history where we are beginning to define not only our own concept of beauty, but of physicality itself? What choices do we make? Is beauty informed by contemporary culture? By history? Or is it defined by the surgeon’s hand?Phillip Toledano lives and works in New York City. He has published three monographs—the most recent, Days With My Father, was received with critical acclaim.
