Route 66 and the Formation of a National Cultural Icon - Daniel Milowski - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

Route 66 and the Formation of a National Cultural Icon - Daniel Milowski - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

During the twentieth century, Route 66 became a national icon and was commonly associated with classic American cuisine, road trips, and the golden age of postwar American prosperity. This conception, however, is mythic. The reality of Route 66 travel was congestion, danger, and racism. Route 66 and the Formation of a National Cultural Icon: Mother Road to Mythic American Byway by Daniel Milowski explores the divergence between Route 66 myth and reality and provides a critical examination of the cultural origins of the Route 66 myth and the road’s historical role in community development in the American West. Milowski discusses how Route 66 became so clogged with traffic in the 1960s that it garnered the dark nickname “Bloody 66” due to the high volume of serious traffic accidents. He examines rampant racism at travel businesses and racialized policing in many towns along the highway. Finally, he contrasts this with the myth of Route 66 which incorporates aspects of cultural nostalgia for supposedly simpler times while representing Route 66 as emblematic of a past “more authentic America.” Milowski demonstrates that the history of Route 66 and its towns is deeper and more nuanced than the Route 66 myth allows.

Proceedings of the 7th Symposium of the Hellenic Society for Archaeometry - - Bog - Archaeopress - Plusbog.dk

The Hellenic Society for Archaeometry (HSA) was founded in 1982. It constitutes one of the oldest European associations dedicated to scientific archaeology with hundreds of registered members, both in Greece and abroad. The HSA''s main concern is to promote the application of science and technology in archaeology, history of art, and other fields related to cultural heritage. The 7th Symposium of the HSA took place in autumn 2019 (October 9-12) at the Byzantine and Christian Museum in Athens. Its theme was ''Archaeology-Archaeometry, 30 years on'', chosen to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the 1st Symposium of HSA back in 1990, which bore the emblematic title ''Linking Archaeology and Archaeometry''. During the 3-day symposium, more than 100 original and stimulating papers were presented orally and/or in poster form. This volume of proceedings includes a representative selection of contributions, covering a wide range of fields in archaeological science, such as provenance and technology of archaeomaterials, geo- and bio-archaeology, dating and landscape studies, as well as papers illuminating the origins of archaeometry in Greece.

Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-66 & GMFM-88) User's Manual - Dianne J. Russell - Bog - Mac Keith Press - Plusbog.dk

The third edition of the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-66 & GMFM-88) User’s Manual has retained the information contained in the original 2002 and 2013 publications which included the conceptual background to the development of the GMFM, and the administration and scoring guidelines for people to be able to administer this clinical and research assessment tool appropriately. This includes information on the development and validation of two abbreviated methods of estimating GMFM-66 scores using the GMFM-66- Item sets (GMFM-66- IS) and the GMFM-66- B&C (Basal & Ceiling) and a chapter providing a longitudinal case illustration of how the measure and the short forms of the GMFM can be applied and interpreted in clinical practice. The new edition includes information and an Appendix on the updated version of the Gross Motor Ability Estimator scoring program (GMAE-3), which is available through the GMFM App+ (see the CanChild website at (https://www.canchild.ca/en/shop/38-the-gross-motor-function-measure-app).

The Eschatological Implications of Isa 65 and 66 as the Conclusion of the Book of Isaiah - Emmanuel Uchenna Dim - Bog - Verlag Peter Lang - Plusbog.dk

The Eschatological Implications of Isa 65 and 66 as the Conclusion of the Book of Isaiah - Emmanuel Uchenna Dim - Bog - Verlag Peter Lang - Plusbog.dk

What can one say about eschatology in the Old Testament? For a number of scholars there is no eschatology in the Old Testament and for many others eschatology only occurs at the fringes of that section of the Bible. Biblical Studies have tried to clarify the issues around eschatology, but different views remain. It is from this general background that this book examines the eschatology of the unit of Isa 65 and 66. The author throws new light on what Old Testament eschatology really is and offers a practical view of the unit of Isa 65 and 66, situating it within the larger Isaian tradition.

Karl Barth’s Doctrine of Sanctification - Michael Bartholomaeus - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

Karl Barth’s Doctrine of Sanctification - Michael Bartholomaeus - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

This book explores Karl Barth’s doctrine of sanctification as set out in “The Sanctification of Man,” §66 of the Church Dogmatics. In his analysis, Michael Bartholomaeus reflects on the role Barth’s various engagements with Scripture play in the flow of his theological argument as well as the significance of his interaction with other voices from the tradition. He then examines select aspects of Barth’s theology of sanctification in greater depth, including how Barth’s use of Scripture in §66 can be understood as the exegetical background to his dogmatic exposition, the similarities and differences between Barth and Calvin on the question of sanctification, and how seriously and biblically Barth speaks of visibility and growth in the Christian life.

Homeland Security - - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Homeland Security - - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

In this book, Chapter One explains how President Trump has organised his security apparatus, offers observations on his NSA and HSA, notes the way Trump has fused the NSC and HSC support staffs, assesses how the new commander-in-chief might employ his decision making system in the event certain national security scenarios arise, and concludes with comments on the Presidents unique approach to national security decision making. Chapter Two aims to make sense of the last three and a half decades of border enforcement strategy as a prologue for future efforts. Chapter Three defines crisis communication, highlights its connection to homeland security via the co-production of public safety and public order, and discusses its practical implications for social media. Chapter Four investigates case studies of people who have fallen the wrong side of the security services, both private and public. It discusses current approaches to identity cards and mass surveillance and how these can be more effectively implemented. Finally, Chapter Five dispels three myths about homeland security: 1) it began with 9/11, 2) terrorism is the problem, and 3) counterterrorism is the primary mission.

Eleanor Davies, Writings 1647?1652 - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Eleanor Davies, Writings 1647?1652 - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

In 1625 Lady Eleanor Davies'' life took a dramatic turn when, by her account in 1641, a "Heavenly voice" told her "There is Ninteene yeares and a halfe to the day of Judgement, and you as the meek Virgin". That same year she published her first treatise, A Warning to the Dragon, initiating her controversial career as a writer of prophetic tracts. Between 1641 and 1652 she would produce some 66 of them, using the Bible to gauge the cosmic significance of events, great and small, taking place in her nation and in her personal life. They focus on a complex of personal and political events that Lady Eleanor thought indicated the fast approach of the "last days" foretold by the biblical prophets Daniel and John of Patmos. A complement to Teresa Feroli''s facsimile edition of Eleanor Davies'' pre-1640 texts (Ashgate, 2000), this pair of volumes reproduces 60 texts from the corpus of 66 printed between 1641 and 1652.
