A brilliant, life-affirming, and hilarious memoir from a “genius” (The New York Times) and master storyteller. With illustrations by Jason Polan. The seven years between the birth of Etgar Keret’s son and the death of his father were good years, though still full of reasons to worry. Lev is born in the midst of a terrorist attack. Etgar’s father gets cancer. The threat of constant war looms over their home and permeates daily life. What emerges from this dark reality is a series of sublimely absurd ruminations on everything from Etgar’s three-year-old son’s impending military service to the terrorist mind-set behind Angry Birds. There’s Lev’s insistence that he is a cat, releasing him from any human responsibilities or rules. Etgar’s siblings, all very different people who have chosen radically divergent paths in life, come together after his father’s shivah to experience the grief and love that tie a family together forever. This wise, witty memoir—Etgar’s first nonfiction book published in America, and told in his inimitable style—is full of wonder and life and love, poignant insights, and irrepressible humor.

A Practical Handbook for Drilling Fluids Processing delivers a much-needed reference for drilling fluid and mud engineers to safely understand how the drilling fluid processing operation affects the drilling process. Agitation and blending of new additions to the surface system are explained with each piece of drilled solids removal equipment discussed in detail. Several calculations of drilled solids, such as effect of retort volumes, are included, along with multiple field methods, such as determining the drilled solids density. Tank arrangements are covered as well as operating guidelines for the surface system. Rounding out with a solutions chapter with additional instruction and an appendix with equation derivations, this book gives today's drilling fluid engineers a tool to understand the technology available and step-by-step guidelines of how-to safety evaluate surface systems in the oil and gas fields.

Six Plus One Equals Seven turns its attention to precisely the parts of the Bible that many people, especially all who desire to explore the foundations of their faith, find their pastors glossing over. By asking the straightforward questions that come to mind when one reads the Bible, Forrest R. Fichthorn gives voice to the curiosity that people often find they are discouraged from cultivating. For instance, one might ask, Why did God take six days to create everything that He could have chosen to make in a single moment, and then why did He feel the need to rest? Thats exactly the kind of question that Six Plus One Equals Seven embraces. A quick review shows that its seven chapters look at a variety of topics: Is God Real and the Bible True?, Creation as a Prophetic Picture, The Absolute Preciseness of God, What Do All the Bible Sevens Mean?, Holy Convocations, What Are They?, Pictures of the Seven Thousand-Year Plan, and The Glorious Kingdom. If you are the sort of person who naturally asks, Why? and What about ?, then you will find Six Plus One Equals Seven a helpful companion on your journey to discover the answers to your numerous questions about the Bible and about the ways of God.
