Accounting for fatigue loadings has been a concern ever since the widespread introduction of metallic materials into load-bearing components in the nineteenth century. Calculations were developed based on the analysis capabilities of their time incorporating all the latest technologies of their era. At the time, that technology was pencil-and-paper calculations.Today's calculations are computer-based. The widespread use of computing methods has greatly enhanced the analyst abilities for simulating internal stress and strain fields. Unfortunately, current fatigue analyses often force-fit current stress field calculations into fatigue analysis methods meant for nineteenth century stress calculation methods. It's never a good idea to force methods optimized for pre-computer calculations to work with computers.This text presents a more integrated approach to computer-based fatigue analysis methods. Like what was originally done, the latest technologies are applied rather than force-fitting computer computational capabilities into nineteenth-century techniques.Holistic approaches incorporating all knowledge have long been established as the most successful approach to problem-solving. Incorporating all knowledge with the most modern capabilities is the preferred approach. Holistic methods strive to reduce subjective inputs and replace them with consistent objective ones. This text aims to transition disjointed inefficient analyses into a unified computer-based holistic technique by introducing a fatigue analysis method specifically developed for computer simulations.Ultimately, for any method or theory to be valuable, it must be put into practice and prove itself. That entails leadership decision-making. Engineering design development activities will lead to final decisions. Information in a holistic approach must include the reliability of the information. How consistent are the predictions? Are the two types of potential scatter, analytic, and physical properly addressed? Is analytic scatter minimized while maintaining creativity? Is physical scatter totally understood? Effective program management requires knowledge on both types of scatter and, most importantly, the ability to realize the difference.A novel computer-based unified approach to fatigue methods is presented which incorporates a holistic approach for more accurate and consistent analyses, including the management and leadership of fatigue analysis projects, minimization of analytic scatter, management of physical scatter, and unification of methods that minimize subjective inputs often needed to bridge inconsistent techniques.

Even in the aftermath, when we are filled with questions and trying to sort out the next steps, we can have confidence in the Lord who is mightier than any storm we face. We will make it through the storm, whether a pandemic, temptations, or general life stressors. Accepting God and his aid is the best decision one could ever make. Storms have a way of sensitizing us to the struggles of others. Together we can weather life's storms. We are in a race--on your mark, get set, go. Let us continue in this Christian race, our personal stormathon to run.

After growing up in the Episcopal church while always dabbling in the occult and witchcraft, Jeremy had a world-shaking terminal diagnosis of cancer. Upon a miraculous intervention by God Almighty and a painful surgical experience, Jeremy began a deep dive into Christianity and his faith. Along with his wife, Buffy, they have been a part of charismatic, nondenominational, Baptist, and evangelical churches. As a result, this book has been written to help the everyday Christians.It has been written to debunk bad doctrines/heresies and demystify the faith. This book flies in the face of those would-be "prophets" and "preachers" who espouse how everything relies on your faith or spout generic "Christian horoscopes" of "favor," "new seasons," and the ever-elusive "next level."These bad and horrific "teachings" are dangerous and painful especially when you pray for loved ones who still die or when you suffer setbacks at work, homelife, marriage, dating, schooling, vocation, etc. because it leaves you beating up yourself wondering why "your faith" wasn't enough for a miracle, etc.This book lays out plainly how we are to operate in the everyday grind of our lives and how God is there every step of the way even when we don't "feel" it or perform some crazy miracle.You can be a janitor at a school cleaning children's vomit off the lunchroom floor or be a world-renowned heart surgeon saving the life of a political world leader, and this book will help both of you and everyone in between to grow in their faith and reliance on the one true God who is sovereign when we don't understand, compassionate when we hurt, and guiding us back when we wander.Use this book to return to the Bible and more importantly return to God the Father and Jesus the Christ and be indwelt with the Holy Spirit.

My book, "The Tamale Letter" is based on a true history of my family over three generations. My grandfather, Anastacio Reyes was an orphan at the age of 10 in Mexico. He drifted from other family members who did not have the financial means nor room to raise another child. He never received an education and could barely read or write. At the age of twelve years old, he worked as a storekeeper's assistance for two years. At the age of fourteen years of age he migrated to the United States with a caravan of migrant workers. He worked odd jobs like making fire pits to cook food, working the fields and cleaning dishes. As he got older, he worked for Southern Pacific Railroad, laying down railroad tracks. At eighteen years old, he met my grandmother Maria Gabino. And after a short courtship they married and raised five children, one being my father, Rudy Reyes. The new Reyes family grew up in Houston during the Great Depression Era and through World War 2. Both our grandfather and grandmother were a loving and Christian family who taught their five children how to treat each other and eventually their families as they got married. The title of my book, "The Tamale Letter" came from an actual letter our aunt Mary Allice, the youngest of the five children wrote to her older brother, Jesse Reyes who was at the Battle of the Bulge.

In the northwest corner of the state of Washington, there is a little-known spit of land that is only accessible by boat or driving twenty-five miles through Canada called Point Roberts. A place so small and forgotten by the rest of the State that there is no active law enforcement and only a volunteer fire department. In 1973, it was the perfect place for the citizens of British Columbia to moor their boats at the marina and grab a drink on Sundays. It was also the perfect place for the US Marshals to dump criminals that turned state's evidence and entered the newly formed witness protection program.Fresh from graduating from Quantico at the bottom of his class, Henry Sloan is sent to Bellingham, a place where nothing ever happens, so he can learn from veteran FBI agent Danny Jordan and stay out of trouble. However, when bodies start washing up on the local beaches, Henry's first case turns into a twisted affair. He will go head-to-head with local authorities, the US Marshals, and the offbeat denizens of Point Roberts in what might be the craziest first week on the job that any FBI agent has ever faced.
