In this report, Dr. Wright aims to explain both the causes of environmental stress cracking (ESC) and its implications. ESC is the premature initiation of cracking and embrittlement of a plastic due to the simultaneous action of stress and strain and contact with specific fluids. This definition provides the key to the problem of predictability. Failure is due to a combination of influences, which would not cause the same problems if encountered individually. Approximately 15% of all failures of plastics components in service are caused by ESC. Such failures may be costly or life thre

The discovery that precise, descriptions of earth-shaking events seem to be encoded into the first five books of the Bible has captured the world’s attention.

If the codes are proven to be genuine, they would be tantamount to scientific proof of the existence of God.Cracking the Bible Code is the first accurate account of the codes-a story far more stunning than has yet been told. Dr. Satinover traces the fascinating tradition of the codes, counters sensational and inaccurate represe

(From the back cover) For the 64 years of its existence, the U. S. Internal Revenue Code has been ridiculed, feared and despised by virtually everyone. And why not? As presented by the Internal Revenue Service, the code appears illogical, inconsistent and incomprehensible. As presented, the code defies practically the entire Bill of Rights: requiring citizens to testify against themselves, allowing searches and seizures without warrants, levying fines and penalties without trials and imposing a tax on the basic right to earn a living. As presented, the IRC would appear to turn everything we al
