Your author decided to write this book about DNA Chemistry after being invited to a Caltech Associates dinner to hear a speech by Professor Jacqueline Barton, a leader in the study of chemistry of DNA by the Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Department at Caltech where she is Chair of that department. I have included in this book research I discovered taking place after investigating the Internet. As Professor Barton stated in her Associates lecture, DNA can be damaged in the double helical DNA. She and her Caltech research associates are using a base of sensors they design to find where the...

On this day 22 March 2013, my son David, the software programmer who designed the software for the Mars Rover, introduced me to Ruby on Rails which he said would allow me to develop complex interactive websites for promoting my Weekly Options Trading Software. I have an existing Website promoting my options trading software and books. After learning about Ruby on Rails as a means for creating an up to date options trading website, I decided to use Ruby on Rails which uses the Ruby program language. The purpose of this book is to define Ruby on Rails and provide a step by step procedure of how...

When I was an Aerospace Executive responsible for overseas sales to Iran and Israel, I had to do a lot of overseas travel by airliner so I wanted to write this book, to learn how airline travel has improved since the mid 1980s. Later the vice-president to whom I reported offered me the Israeli business if I was willing to form my own company. I eagerly accept his offer and established a company specializing in designing Guidance and Control Systems for Military Aircraft, which was basically funded by the profits from the Israeli business. One of the consulting contracts of my company was to...

Your author decided to write this book about Dark Matter when observations from the CERN reported that evidence of Dark Matter, which consists of about 25% of the mass of the Universe, had been found early in the year 2013. I found there was a tremendous amount of research going on about the Cosmology of our Universe including such items as Dark Matter. I performed extensive research on the Internet of the research taking place to discover what Dark Matter is. When I was a student at Caltech for my BS in Physics and at USC for my PhD in EE, Internet did not exist. It is exciting that Internet...

Your author became aware of Optogenetics Research when he received a Caltech Associates invitation to attend an evening lecture by Viviana Gradinaru, Professor of Biology at Caltech, on this subject. The description of Optogenetics is given below: Optogenetics is a neuromodulation technique employed in behavioral neuroscience that uses a combination of techniques from optics and genetics to control the activity of individual neurons in living tissue-even within freely-moving animals-and to precisely measure the effects of those manipulations in real-time. It was developed by Karl Deisseroth...

Your author felt the Washington Political Battles were preventing anything from being accomplished in Washington DC. I found out other Americans like me had the same views of the Washington Problem when I attended my wife's High School Alumni meeting and my Caltech Alumni meeting in May 2013. I heard men and women at both alumni meetings saying over and over again: Can't these elected officials in Washington get anything done? It appears these elected officials feel no obligation to solve the problems of the country. They appear to believe we elected them to point fingers at each other rather...

Your author attended an Alumni Seminar day in 2013 at USC (University of Southern California) where he had received his PhD and taught as an adjunct assistant Professor in Computer science. He received two lectures in person, but both lectures could have been sent by internet as part of Global Education. In that way registered students worldwide could have received the same lectures either in realtime or downloaded using encoded files. Both of these USC lectures were of fascinating topics, but such lectures could be made on a large number of subjects spread out over time to satisfy the...

We all grow old and retire. Then we must to live on Social Security and Retirement Pensions. Some may want to move from their present home and acquire one more suitable to their retirement situation. It is important to keep your mind active. Studies show Alzheimer's can be avoided by keeping an active brain. Also you need to adopt a daily exercise routine to keep your body active. For example: before breakfast in house exercising such as bend-overs and pushups following the US Air Force exercise routine. After breakfast jog or walk at least a mile per day. After retirement you have time to...
