Organic Field-Effect Transistors $149.95 This comprehensive, multidisciplinary volume begins with a theoretical description of charge transport in organic semiconductors at the molecular level and then discusses charge transport in single-crystal devices, small molecules and oligomers, conjugated polymer devices, and charge injection issues in organic transistors. It provides an overview of various characterization methods used to probe interfacial ordering, microstructure, molecular packing, and orientation crucial to device performance. It also describes the different processing techniques for molecules deposited by vacuum and solution, followed by current technological examples that employ OTFTs in their operation. |

Online Degrees Programs - Engaging Careers Await Those Students Who Enter The Energy Careers
One of the biggest crises the world is currently faces is its dependence on non-replaceable energy resources. Oil and coal are being dug out of the earth faster than it can be replenished, and because of a new profession is being created to address the matter.
At their core, energy engineers are both technician and auditor. Their profession is dedicated to saving or getting the maximum efficiency of all manner of energy. This could be as basic as getting the most miles per gallon out of a car or air conditioning that uses the least amount of power, to such esoteric arenas as finding a way to recycle trash into cost-efficient power.
As it is a relatively new engineering specialty, there is a lot of overlap in what must be studied to become one. Before anyone even considers starting on a career in this STEM profession, one’s secondary education should include good grades in the math and sciences, as well as written and oral communications. When it’s time to consider entering an institution of higher learning, the basic track is to take courses in electrical/electronic or mechanical engineering, with minors in auditing and business management courses. A good place to get more advice on this is with professional societies such as the Association of Energy Engineers.
The real education begins after getting one’s BS in engineering. These days the most common path is for the young engineer to find employment, and then enroll in an online college to advance on to a Masters degree. Because of the federal government’s agenda about becoming more green, a number of schools are now starting to set up Energy Engineering programs. If not, one should see what kind of energy-related course loads these schools do offer.
Financial assistance for budding energy engineers is better than in many other engineering specialties thanks to the national agenda. As can be expected, there are the regular federal and state grants such as the Pell and SEOG. One can also apply to the National Science Foundation for S-TEM scholarships. If that isn’t enough, there are also a number of professional engineering societies and private corporations who are willing to help stock the labor pool ranging from the Association of Energy Engineers to Chevron.
While the education aspect is a very long process, after all is said and done the salary and benefits will make it feel worthwhile. The average energy engineer salary is just short of $90,000. If they establish good reputations, many go on to become freelance consultants, with six figure salaries.
As for the demand for those in this nascent occupation, it is an example of what a difference a few years can make. Back in 2008, the Bureau of Labor Statistics projected growth in the field to be a slow 3-6%. In a new report released in December, 2009, it’s jumped up to 9% and rising.
As it is, the world is rapidly realizing the energy crisis is truly coming. It needs skilled personnel such as energy engineers to help develop solutions and those engaging in online education programs will be in the lead. So maybe the occupation didn’t exist not too long ago, but one gets the feeling we’ll see a lot more energy engineers very soon joining the ranks of other professionals with Online Graphics and Multimedia Degrees as they work on behalf of us all.

Coffee, Tea, Chocolate, and the Brain $119.95 Coffee, tea, and chocolate are among the most frequently consumed products in the world. The pleasure that many experience from these edibles is accompanied by a range of favorable and adverse effects on the brain that have been the focus of a wealth of recent research. Coffee, Tea, Chocolate, and the Brain presents new information on the long-debated issue about the beneficial and/or potentially negative effects on the brain of the consumption of coffee, tea, and chocolate. With caffeine as the common component in these beverages and food, this volume features important data on the effects of caffeine on sleep, memory, cognition, mood, performance, and more. It also contains specific information on new directions of research on the effect of caffeine on Parkinson's disease, seizures, ischemia, the stress axis, and brain development. Debate on the potential addiction to caffeine is included, as well as discussion of how chocolate and caffeine can induce or alleviate various types of headaches. With contributions from world-renowned experts in the field, this up-to-date reference provides important information for scientists, researchers, industry professionals, and students involved in nutrition, neurology, neuropharmacology, clinical psychology, and other health-related sciences. |

''Nostalgia without memory'': A case study of American converts to Eastern Orthodoxy in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. $49.99 This dissertation explores the ascribed social meanings and processes of conversion among contemporary American converts to Eastern Orthodoxy in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Employing the ethnographic field methods of participant observation and interviewing at two primary fieldsites, a Greek Orthodox and Orthodox Church in America parish, I examine how converts, as choice-makers using consumer-like strategies and print/electronic media to study and compare religious options, reflect and effect change in communities commonly regarded in the United States as preserving the languages and customs of various immigrant groups from Eastern, Southeastern Europe, and the Middle East. Much of the existing scholarly literature on Eastern Orthodoxy in the United States characterizes it as an ancient, unchanging form of Christianity that is highly resistant to the conditions of what religion scholars refer to as the "spiritual marketplace" of expansive religious diversity and individual choice-making in regard to religious affiliation. Yet, through the lens of conversion, I chart how the language and methods of the "marketplace" are taken-for-granted elements of church life, engrained in the words and actions of Orthodox clerics and lifelong church members in addition to converts themselves. Drawing upon the work of sociologist Ann Swidler, I argue that the marketplace remains one of the most powerful "toolkits" or "cultural repertoires," although by no means the only one, by which local Orthodox Christians in Pittsburgh have come to understand their religious lives and serves as a new means of gauging the influence and engagement of Orthodox Christianity with its surrounding American culture. |
