By Kyle L. Meissner. 2018
Congratulations for making the decision to join the greatest military the world has ever known. Of these five branches of…
the U.S. military, the USCG has been ranked as the most intellectually demanding and second only to the U.S. Marines in physicality. This is why you will need a preparation guide and every advantage that you can acquire before entering the gates of Cape May NJ. I have written this book specifically to help prepare you for the most challenging aspects of basic training as a potential future recruit, along with helpful hints from myself and fellow Coasties. As a USCG Veteran, I will help to mentor you and pass down the knowledge that my shipmates and I never received prior to our training. No matter what has led you to join the CG, you should take basic training seriously. In my basic training experience, I watched helplessly as so many of my shipmates tapped out due to stress or were reverted due to the inability to endure the rigorous demands of our Company Commanders. The last thing that you want to do at Cape May is spend more time there as a recruit! Use the accumulated knowledge of this book in preparation to shipping off for basic training and your chances for success will be greatly improved. Yes “it’s only 8 weeks,” but how will your 8 weeks at TRACEN Cape May be remembered and how will your Coast Guard career commence?

With a firm scientific basis, but without the use of complex mathematics, the author provides a thorough and intuitive understanding of masonry structures. The basis of masonry analysis is introduced in the first two chapters, after which individual structures - including piers, pinnacles, towers, vaults and domes - are considered in more detail. This lucid and informative text will be of particular interest to structural engineers, practising architects and others involved in the renovation and care of old stone buildings.

The definitive book on animation, from the Academy Award-winning animator behind Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Animation is one of the…
hottest areas of filmmaking today--and the master animator who bridges the old generation and the new is Richard Williams. During his fifty years in the business, Williams has been one of the true innovators, winning three Academy Awards and serving as the link between Disney's golden age of animation by hand and the new computer animation exemplified by Toy Story. Perhaps even more important, though, has been his dedication in passing along his knowledge to a new generation of animators so that they in turn could push the medium in new directions. In this book, based on his sold-out master classes in the United States and across Europe, Williams provides the underlying principles of animation that every animator--from beginner to expert, classic animator to computer animation whiz --needs. Urging his readers to "invent but be believable," he illustrates his points with hundreds of drawings, distilling the secrets of the masters into a working system in order to create a book that will become the standard work on all forms of animation for professionals, students, and fans.
