This handsome, illustrated book chronicles the history of the Lower Chattahoochee River and the people who lived along its banks from prehistoric Indian settlement to the present day. In highly accessible, energetic prose, Lynn Willoughby takes readers down the Lower Chattahoochee River and through the centuries. On this journey, the author begins by examining the first encounters between Native Americans and European explorers and the international contest for control of the region in the 17th and 19th centuries.Throughout the book pays particular attention to the Chattahoochee's crucial role in the economic development of the area. In the early to mid-nineteenth century--the beginning of the age of the steamboat and a period of rapid growth for towns along the river--the river was a major waterway for the cotton trade. The centrality of the river to commerce is exemplified by the Confederacy's efforts to protect it from Federal forces during the Civil War. Once railroads and highways took the place of river travel, the economic importance of the river shifted to the building of dams and power plants. This subsequently led to the expansion of the textile industry. In the last three decades, the river has been the focus of environmental concerns and the subject of "water wars" because of the rapid growth of Atlanta. Written for the armchair historian and the scholar, the book provides the first comprehensive social, economic, and environmental history of this important Alabama-Georgia-Florida river. Historic photographs and maps help bring the river's fascinating story to life.

This second book by David Esling is a worthy companion for its predecessor “A FLOWING THROUGH”. We read again the narrative of a teacher’s creative approaches for teaching and learning within a primary school in a socially disadvantaged suburb of Hobart, Tasmania, towards the end of his career. “A FLOWING THROUGH TOO” discusses a series of artistic explorations that flow from simple staring points, pass by milestones and finish with polished achievements. The inspirational stories of his explorations with the children by his side will captivate the hearts and minds of student teachers, teachers, teachers of teachers and all those who love to work alongside children. The text of each explorative journey is accompanied by the teacher’s photographs and include relevant and interesting conversations between the participants. Together, they bring the stories back to life and invite the reader to sit alongside and participate in the explorations. The children’s art, mainly drawing, was often outstanding, but the journey rather than the destination carried the greater significance. Their emerging skills as observers and the developing expertise in their interpretations of what they could see were remarkable. However, David used art as a means of reaching out to children, many of whom had no wish to attend school. Their shared successes brought about a dramatic rise in the children’s self-esteem, a more positive attitude towards learning, and improving the relationships with each other. School became an exciting place as the teacher and the children together played the active roles of teachers and learners. They were learning how to learn.

A call to compassionate, awakened action alike Marianne Williamson's speech for Nelson Mandela in "A Return to Love". A ' brain bath ', this collection of three astute, inter-woven writings opens the human mind far beyond the reaches of analytical thinking. Inspired by processes of deep intuition, these treasures awaken us to the spirit within and the great mystery without, rekindling our memory of the 'puzzle' of which we are all a part. "Awakening Instinct" is a treatise on the vital need for humans to de-fossilize their latent powers - their 'Barometers of Time', lamps with which to light their path. "Running the Gauntlet" opens our hearts wide to experiencing our full potential and recognizing the 'gauntlet' we must run to fully embody it. "Windows Through Time" leaps into the unknown like a Vision Quest, bringing back great riches of conscious understanding. In its gentle yet remarkable journey it makes the nameless, uncharted universe tangible and accessible. A graceful, powerful, life-changing read.

In this thesis, the atrial blood flow was modeled using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to better understand atrial hemodynamics and blood stasis. Atrial hemodynamics and especially stasis are of interest since thrombi can form in the left atrium, travel with the blood stream to the brain, and cause strokes. To model atrial blood flow in a personalized manner, several modeling assumptions and choices need to be made, for example how to model the motion of the atrial wall. There are different approaches to estimate stasis; however, there is no standard method. While it is known that in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), the stroke risk is increased, the exact mechanisms for this are not fully understood, especially in patients that are in sinus rhythm most of the time. One approach to reduce the stroke risk is to occlude the left atrial appendage (LAA). However, this has not been evaluated for patients in an early phase of AF. The aim of this thesis was to enhance our understanding of left atrial hemodynamics. For this, the blood flow in the left atrium was simulated using CFD based on time-resolved CT images, including the patient-specific geometry and wall motion. In this thesis, different stasis markers are investigated and a new method to quantify atrial hemodynamics was developed, splitting the atrial blood flow into 6 components. Additionally, virtual LAA occlusion was investigated to see how it impacts atrial hemodynamics during sinus rhythm. In this thesis, the atrial blood flow and stasis in 21 paroxysmal AF patients during sinus rhythm were compared to 8 controls. The wall motion tracked from time-resolved CT that was used in the CFD simulations showed similar flow rates as measurements from 4D flow MRI. All stasis markers investigated showed higher stasis in AF patients during sinus rhythm compared to the controls. Atrial flow component analysis revealed how blood travels through the left atrium. In the control group, the blood flow was dominated by components characterizing a direct path through the LA. In the patients with AF, however, an increased amount of blood stays in the LA for more than two heart beats and more blood flows back to the lungs. Virtual LAAO showed a reduction of stasis, for some individuals to similar levels as the control group. For others, stasis was reduced but still high, and stasis was located close to the occlusion device. This could indicate an increased risk for device-related thrombi. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to our understanding of the atrial blood flow. Using CT-based CFD simulations, we could show that stasis is increased in AF patients during sinus rhythm. In the future, adding patient-specific stasis assessment could improve decision-making to prescribe anticoagulants and thus reduce the incidence of cardioembolic strokes.

Environmental professionals are (and will continue to be) under increased pressure to become more knowledgeable of environmental management issues. Basic Concepts in Environmental Management fulfills the long-standing need for fundamental knowledge-especially concerning government regulations on environmental and natural resource protection. As a leading environmental professional and consultant since the 1940s, Kenneth M. Mackenthun offers a unique perspective on the breadth, scope, and ever-constant change in environmental legislation at the federal, state, and local levels... and what those guidelines signify for industry and citizens alike. By maintaining an awareness of existing and forthcoming laws, environmentalists can substantially enhance their career potential-and be in a better position to protect the land, air, and sea. The starting point for that knowledge: Basic Concepts in Environmental Management.
