$20

Imagine your average day without zippers, airplanes, vacuum cleaners, without your clock radio or your personal stereo, without photocopiers. All of these devices were invented within the last hundred years and have since transformed our daily landscape.

Drawing on The British Library's vast and comprehensive collection of patents, this handsomely illustrated book recounts the history of 100 of the most significant inventions of the century, decade by decade. Many of these inventions changed the world, others radically changed our daily lives. By combining a brief history of each patent with a copy of the original -- and often entertaining -- patent application (the zipper is a "hookless fastener", the Post-it note an "inherently tacky, elastomeric polymer"), Inventing the Twentieth Century reveals the ways in which many of the most basic aspects of our material existence -- our clothes (nylon, Velcro), our leisure (Monopoly, Scrabble), our homes (Tupperware, teflon) -- have been revolutionized through specific objects.

From the photocopier to the Slinky, from genetic fingerprinting to the Lava Lamp, from the ballpoint pen to the fuel cell, Inventing the Twentieth Century is an informative, illuminating window onto the technology of the twentieth century.

The Purpose of a Covenant Heart

For where you go, I will go, and where you lodge, I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God, my God. A major paradigm shift is ocurring in the Body of Christ as authority structures are pulled down and the Church moves towards compassionate, grace-filled relationships. The Purpose of a Covenant Heart exposes the nakedness of the spirit of religion, which seeks to manipulate and create guilt in the lives of God's people. Huskins unveils the dynamic shift that will quickly lead the Church into proper alignment as each member of the Body begins to flow from a base of mutual respect and purpose, rather than the cold heart of religious power and tradition. The door leading away from this religious control and into the emerging destiny of each member of the Church is unlocked with the keys of compassionate, covenant relationships.

Neural Organization: Structure, Function, and Dynamics by Michael A. Arbib, ISBN 026201159X

In "Neural Organization, Arbib, Erdi, and Szentagothai integrate structural, functional, and dynamical approaches to the interaction of brain models and neurobiologcal experiments. Both structure-based "bottom-up" and function- based "top-down" models offer coherent concepts by which to evaluate the experimental data. The goal of this book is to point out the advantages of a multidisciplinary, multistrategied approach to the brain.Part I of "Neural Organization provides a detailed introduction to each of the three areas of structure, function, and dynamics. "Structure refers to the anatomical aspects of the brain and the relations between different brain regions. "Function refers to skills and behaviors, which are explained by means of functional schemas and biologically based neural networks. "Dynamics refers to the use of a mathematical framework to analyze the temporal change of neural activities and synaptic connectivities that underlie brain development and plasticity--in terms of...

A Lesson Before Dying is set in a small Cajun community in the late 1940s. Jefferson, a young black man, is an unwitting party to a liquor store shootout in which three men are killed; the only survivor, he is convicted of murder and sentenced to death. Grant Wiggins, who left his hometown for the university, has returned to the plantation school to teach. As he struggles with his decision whether to stay or escape to another state, his aunt and Jefferson's godmother persuade him to visit Jefferson in his cell and impart his learning and his pride to Jefferson before his death. In the end, the two men forge a bond as they both come to understand the simple heroism of resisting -- and defying -- the unexpected.

Swordfish (Blu-Ray) (Widescreen)

When the DEA shut down its dummy corporation operation codenamed "Swordfish" in 1986, they had generated $400 million which they let sit around; fifteen years of compound interest has swelled it to $9.5 billion. A covert counter-terrorist unit called Black Cell, headed by the duplicitous and suave Gabriel Shear, wants the money to help finance their raise-the-stakes vengeance war against international terrorism, but it's all locked away behind super-encryption. He brings in convicted hacker Stanley Jobson, who only wants to see his daughter Holly again but can't afford the legal fees, to slice into the government mainframes and get the money.
