1993ref. 84862Brunswick OH: The Association of Engineering Geologists 1993. Reprin. Staplebound on left side. Very good/No DJ present. 4 37-78 pages. Illustrations. Tables. Maps. References. This was originally published in the Bulletin of The Association of Engineering Geologists Vol. XXX No. 1 1993. This was the eighteenth Cities of The World paper and examined the geologic setting of a rapidly-growing arid-land city lying in a deep largely inward-draining alluvial basin surrounded by relatively rugged mountains. Las Vegas is a geotechnical and hydrologic realm influenced primarily by water. Its very name in Spanish mends "the meadows". The general scarcity of water today the constant potential for flash-flooding and the troublesome characteristics of foundations soils in the area are serious concerns that must be addressed. Las Vegas has faced the problems of solid waste disposal water treatment rational water use flooding and earthquakes---all of which are related to the unique geologic and geomorphic setting. Among the topics covered include Geological setting Seismicity Foundation Design Construction Material Environmental Water Supply Aquifers Solid Waste Management Wetlands Flooding and Sediment Transport. In June 1957 13 local engineering geologists met in Sacramento CA to discuss the need for organization of a society in the specific field of engineering geology. During the next eight months this group set up the framework of the California Association of Engineering Geologists by formulating the aims of the organization a definition of Engineering Geology and membership qualifications. In February 1958 although the Constitution and Bylaws were yet to be completed membership recruitment was begun. Three Sections Los Angeles Sacramento and San Francisco were established. The Association was incorporated according to the laws of the State of California on May 7 1963. By this action the original Executive Committee of twelve became the Board of Directors and requisite constitutional changes were made accordingly. During the early years following the formation of the Association it became increasingly apparent that a need for a similar organization existed with engineering geologists everywhere not just in California. Evident from the first were the geologists outside the State of California who were concerned with the application of geology to problems of civil engineering who showed a marked interest in the organization. In recognition of this need and interest the membership voted better than 10 to 1 in late 1962 to remove all geographical limitations on the organization and to change the name to Association of Engineering Geologists. Constitutional changes to effect this organization were subsequently completed in early 1963. In 1963 the first Section outside of California Washington State was established. Seventeen Sections including two outside the United States were recognized by 1973. On the occasion of the Association's twenty-fifth year twenty-two Sections formed the regional units of the Association. In 1964 AEG was accepted as a member society of the American Geological Institute. On September 22 2005 the name change to the Association of Environmental & Engineering Geologists became official. The Association has been serving members of both the environmental and engineering geology for a number of years and the name change serves to provide formal recognition of this support.

1998ref. 78592Centreville MD: Tidewater Publishers 1998. First Edition stated presumed first printing. Hardcover. Very good/Good. Jed Kirschbaum Cover photo. ix 1 262 pages. Illustrations. A collection of Lacy Columns. Biography. Index. Signed by Newson on the half-title page. DJ has some wear and soiling. Samuel Harold "Sam" Lacy October 23 1903 - May 8 2003 was an African-American and Native American sportswriter reporter columnist editor and television/radio commentator who worked in the sports journalism field for parts of nine decades. Credited as a persuasive figure in the movement to racially integrate sports Lacy in 1948 became the first black member of the Baseball Writers' Association of America. In 1997 he received the J. G. Taylor Spink Award for outstanding baseball writing from the BBWAA which placed him in the writers' and broadcasters' wing of the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1998. Moses J. Newson February 5 1927 - is an African American journalist for the Baltimore Afro-American in Baltimore Maryland. Newson like other African-American journalists risked his life to report on the Civil Rights Movement. His dream was to play professional baseball. Instead Sam Lacy became an outspoken advocate for equal opportunity using words to pry open doors so athletes at all levels could realize their dreams. Fighting for Fairness is the account of sportswriter Sam Lacy's career-long battle to lower racial barriers in sports. Lacy spearheaded integration in major league baseball and recognition of this achievement led to his induction into the writer's wing of the Baseball Hall of Fame on July 26 1998. Sam Lacy's on-the-scene accounts of sports events and insider stories about legendary sports figures are unmatched. Lacy lived with sports heroes like Jackie Robinson and Larry Doby in the segregated accommodations to which they were relegated for years despite their outstanding performances on the playing field. This extraordinary book stands as a mirror of the progress America has made in race relations during Sam Lacy's lifetime. Tidewater Publishers hardcover
1986ref. 65114Jamestown RI: September Press 1986. First edition. First Edition stated First printing stated. Hardcover. Good in good dust jacket. Signed by previous owner. DJ has some wear soiling edge tears and chips. 338 p. Illustrations. This is a racing odyssey on the border of obsession. Sam Moses a motorsports writer for "Sports Illustrated " was assigned to go racing and write about what happened. "Fast Guys Rich Guys and Idiots" is a personal odyssey that peers over the cliff of change and into the pit of obsession. From small-time races to glittery grands prix it lays bare the greed lust and desperation of every driver for time behind the wheel and a faster car. It explains the perfectionism behind taking a turn at the limit and describes the intoxicating thrill of stealing down the Daytona backstraight at nearly two hundred miles an hour. The core of Moses's story takes place in the heartland of stock car racing there he finds a spot on a team in Ether North Carolina. The team's owner is a tough Louisiana oil man its crew chief a lanky laconic Texan and its number-one driver a hairy-chested leadfoot who learned fast driving on backwoods Georgia roads delivering beauty supplies in his Mustang. Crashes echo throughout the tale that follows five of them the author's own. The author was a seinor writer for Sports Illustrated. September Press hardcover

Ink notations in a few places. Name written on spine. 307 3 p. Includes: illustrations diagrams. From an on-line posting: The goal of IFSA 2011 was to bring together scientists in the fields of inertial fusion sciences high energy density physics and related applications. In recent years significant advances have been made in high energy density science with dramatic achievements in laser Z-pinch and particle beam technologies and in research on central hot spot ignition and alternative fusion schemes fast ignition shock ignition impact ignition equations of state and radiative properties of warm dense matter or particle acceleration. Ignition and subsequent high gain target experiments have become realistic near-term goals with the construction of two large-scale national projects the National Ignition Facility in the U.S.A. successfully commissioned in 2009 and the Laser MégaJoule in France which will be completed in 2014. Intensive physics and technology studies are being conducted on laser-plasma interaction implosion symmetry and shock timing as well as target fabrication and laser pulse shaping. First National Ignition Campaigns have for instance provided hohlraum target and laser drive conditions suitable for compressing ICF capsules while reduced yields from THD cryogenic targets allowed fielding a suite of x-ray and neutron diagnostics to study thermonuclear fuel assembly. Fast ignition studies and the development of high-intensity lasers have opened the new field of relativistic laser-plasma interaction. The extreme states thus achieved will advance contributions to science and industrial applications such as material processing novel accelerators ultra-brigth ultra-short X-ray sources.Starting now and continuing in the next few years the scientific world will witness the emergence of an increasing number of new experimental and computational platforms that will usher in an unprecedented era of studying matter at extreme conditions and subsequently a broad range of missions including the dream of inertial fusion energy. This dynamic international conference will emphasize high-energy and high-intensity laser pulsed power particle beam-matter interaction and high energy density physics current achievements and promises for the future.
