In a world where we are told we can really have it all, there are still many who are dissatisfied with their lives and achievements. In a modern society where it is becoming increasingly challenging to balance everything, peace and fulfillment can sometimes seem out of reach. In his collection of poetry and other musings, Jasper McGee relies on his personal experiences to explore ways to stay grounded in life and work better together with others to find satisfaction in the balance. While reflecting on relatable topics such as time, loneliness, compassion, friendship, and selflessness, McGee shares a poetic journey with the intent of helping others gain a healthier concept of themselves, balance their lives, develop better relationships with those around them, and replace myths with real needs and realities. In the Balance offers lyrical wisdom and reflections that will encourage others to search out and find balance in life, ultimately realizing the kind of happiness that helps make dreams come true.

To reconstruct or not to reconstruct? That is the question facing many agencies and site managers throughout the world. While reconstructed sites provide a three-dimensional pedagogic environment in which visitors can acquire a heightened sense of the past, an ethical conflict emerges when on-site reconstructions and restorations contribute to the damage or destruction of the original archaeological record. The case studies in this volume contribute to the ongoing debates between data and material authenticity and educational and interpretive value of reconstructions. Discussing diverse reconstruction sites from the Golan Region to Colonial Williamsburg, the authors present worldwide examples that have been affected by agency policies, divergent presentation philosophies, and political and economic realities.

Thomas Packer (ca.1460) married Margaret Kibblewhite (ca.1462) and lived in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, where they had five children between ca.1488-ca.1500. Descendants and relatives through the seventeenth century lived in Gloucestershire, Westminster (London County), Groombridge (Sussex County), Berkshire, Wiltshire and elsewhere. Some descendants lived in Ireland. Philip Packer (ca.1656-1739), direct descendant of Thomas in the sixth generation), immigrated in 1683 from Ireland to Burlington, New Jersey. Jonathan Taylor Packer (1817-1889), direct descendant in the fifth generation of Philip the immigrant, became a Mormon convert and married three times, moving to Brigham City, Utah and Safford, Arizona. The author's husband (Apostle Boyd K. Packer) is a direct descendant in the eighth generation of immigrant Philip Packer.

This concise and fully illustrated introduction to methods of excavation describes a technique that is essential for all kinds of archaeology. It presents new ideas on excavation techniques and challenges traditional approaches to site organisation and recording. John Collis uses his 40 years of excavation experience to recommend practical solutions to problems, and considers the impact of computerisation and other technical innovations. He also describes the history and development of archaeological excavation which provides a background to the methods employed today. This practical common sense guide should find a place on the bookshelf of everyone who practices archaeology on a professional or amateur basis, and is illuminating reading for anyone who wants to understand how archaeologists can recover the past by digging in the soil.

Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE This collection of 78 historical papers provides a wide view of the rich body of literature that documents the development of fundamental concepts geotechnical engineering and their application to practical problems. From the highly theoretical to the elegantly practical, the papers in this one-of-a-kind collection are significant for their contributions to the geotechnical engineering literature. Among the writings of more than 60 geotechnical engineering pioneers are several by Karl Terzaghi, widely known as the father of soil mechanics, R.R. Proctor, Arthur Casagrande, and Ralph Peck. Many of these papers contain information as useful today as when they were first written. Others provide great insight into the origins and development of the field and the thought processes of its leaders.

The different traditions that have inspired the contributors to this volume can be divided along three different orientations, one that is rooted predominantly in sociolinguistics, a second that is ethnomethodologically informed, and a third that came in the wake of narrative interview research. All three share a commitment to view self and identity not as essential properties of the person but as constituted in discursive practices and particularly in narrative. Moreover, since self and identity are held to be phenomena that are contextually and continually generated, they are defined and viewed in the plural, as selves and identities. In the attempt of moving closer toward a process-oriented approach to the formation of selves and identities, this volume sets the stage for future discussions of the role of narrative and discourse in this generation process and for how a close analysis of these processes can advance an understanding of the world around us and within this world, of identities and selves.

This book gathers the best peer-reviewed papers presented at the Italian Concrete Days national conference, held in Lecco, Italy, on June 14-15, 2018. The conference topics encompass the aspects of design, execution, rehabilitation and control of concrete structures, with particular reference to theory and modeling, applications and realizations, materials and investigations, technology and construction techniques. The contributions amply demonstrate that today’s structural concrete applications concern not only new constructions, but more and more rehabilitation, conservation, strengthening and seismic upgrading of existing premises, and that requirements cover new aspects within the frame of sustainability, including environmental friendliness, durability, adaptability and reuse of works and / or materials. As such the book represents an invaluable, up-to-the-minute tool, providing an essential overview of structural concrete, as well as all new materials with cementitious matrices.
