After seven years of confidence-building measures that are the framework of the Oslo Accords -- an ambitious attempt to bring Israelis and Palestinians to a final peace agreement -- the whole affair is unraveling.Violence in the West Bank has accelerated dramatically since Yitzak Rabin and Yasser Arafat signed the Declaration of Principles on the White House lawn in 1993. In this in-depth study of the peace process, the reader will learn little-reported facts about the peace process and the people involved, and will be able to see clearly that the latest confrontations are a prelude to a devastating conclusion.

A Tribute to the Sooner Nation Sooner fans, this is the one you've been waiting for--a book written by a die-hard fan, for die-hard fans. Chock-full of action photos, these pages capture the excitement and the glory of a century of Sooner football. The Die-Hard Fan's Guide to Sooner Football takes you on a tour through the long, proud history of the OU football program, from the birth of Sooner football in Bud Risinger's barber shop, through the dynasties of Bud Wilkinson and Barry Switzer, to Bob Stoops's powerhouse teams of today. Here you will find vintage reports on the Sooners' very first football games, in-depth details about OU's historic Wishbone offense, and a close-up look at OU's seven--count em, seven--national championship teams. You will come face to face with Heisman winners Billy Sims, Billy Vessels, Steve Owens, and Jason White. Additionally, you'll become acquainted with some of the great forgotten players throughout the team's history players who made crucial contributions to excellent Sooner teams, but somehow never earned the recognition they deserve. Read through exclusive interviews conducted with some of the biggest Sooner legends: Lucious Selmon, Darrell Royal, Steve Davis, Joe Washington, Bob Stoops, Jimmy Harris, Billy Sims, Jack Mildren, and the King himself, Barry Switzer. All contribute their thoughts and memories about their time in the limelight at Owen Field. But of course, Sooner football is not just about the players and the coaches; it's about the fans. Here, you will find reminiscences about the good times at OU from a motley collection of die-hard Sooner devotees. You'll meet Bill Horn, who bluffed his way onto the Sooner sideline and became the "unofficial team photographer," as well as Bryan Procter, who expressed his dedication to the team by wearing the same pair of "lucky" underpants to every Sooner game for seven years. A passionate tribute to the winningest college football program of the last sixty years, The Die-Hard Fan's Guide to Sooner Football will rekindle your pride in the Sooner Nation.

The realm of Bible prophecy fascinates millions of people, yet today there is a disconnect between true Bible prophecy and the everyday lives of people living in American popular culture. Bible prophecy experts are generally Christian conservatives/fundamentalists who talk about the Rapture, the antichrist, and the mark of the beast. Yet while those subjects titillate audiences, they do so in the same way the films of Stephen King scare us. Jim Fletcher fills that void with a look at just how relevant (and true) Bible prophecy really is, showing how: . Despite the mockery of the Bible today, we are in fact living in the last days of world history, as outlined in the Hebrew and Christian scriptures . God plainly reveals Himself in the Bible, and how an understanding of this can satisfy that human longing to know who is “out there” and what is happening in our world today. The writing model for this book is Blue Like Jazz (Donald Miller; Thomas Nelson, 2003) and Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith (Rob Bell; Zondervan, 2005).

IBM's System/390 computers are selling faster than any mainframe system ever has because the age of multimedia and e-commerce requires the crunching and shifting of vast amounts of data. This new edition closely examines the role large computers will play in the coming century. All the new hardware models and operating system products-VSE, MVS, VM, AIX, and Open Edition-now available for the S/390-are fully explained, as are such critical business issues as cost justification, lease versus purchase, support, security, and maintenance. Three hypothetical businesses (small, medium, and large) are described and then outfitted with the appropriate S/390 solution.
