The transparent story of a remarkable life''s journey-to the highest level of success as a basketball player, the NBA. The depths of personal trauma and pain are core moments in this journey Scott Williams takes us on. Williams always had fire. He writes candidly about his trauma, the death of his parents, and the circumstances that directly impacted the rest of his life. He writes candidly about all of it, including his time on the court with basketball legend, Michael Jordan, and his detailed opinion and comparison of Michael Jordan and Lebron James. With vulnerability and obvious insight, Williams relates his entire path, including the most painful parts of it, to his three-peat championships and overall success. Williams'' ability to pull inspiration from around him and overcoming obstacles shows his strength. This compelling story shows the true heart and game of Williams. "Dean Smith, small and confident, sat at our kitchen table. "If you come to the University of North Carolina I can promise you two things: one, you''ll get a quality education and two, you''ll leave a better person," he said. An education and a better person. No other coach had said that. After my junior year in high school I played well at the Five-Star Camp in Western Pennsylvania and my recruiting letters changed from Cal State-Bakersfield to major programs like UCLA. Among the letters was a note from Dean Smith, Head Coach, University of North Carolina, the man who would change my life. The man who would save my life. Coach Smith was different from the other coaches who visited. Jim Valvano and his assistant coach, Tom Abatemarco, got into an argument in my living room when Abatemarco corrected Valvano. They were nose to nose. I knew I didn''t want that. I''d had enough yelling in my life. What stood out about Coach Smith, sitting at our kitchen table, was how down-to earth he was. He had won a national championship and an Olympic Gold Medal. He had coached numerous pro players, including my hero James Worthy and the current NBA sensation Michael Jordan. And yet Coach Smith wasn''t over-selling the program. He wasn''t meek or soft-spoken but he also wasn''t over-the-top. He was confident and humble at the same time. A quality education and a better person. That''s all Coach Smith promised."

A series of five detailed design examples feature the application of state-of-the-art strut-and-tie modeling (STM) design recommendations. This guidebook is intended to serve as a primary reference material for designers in the application of STM to bridge components. The examples are as follows: (Example 1) Five-Column Bent Cap of a Skewed Bridge: this design example serves as an introduction to the application of STM. Challenges are introduced by the bridge skew and complicated loading pattern. A clear procedure for defining nodal geometries is presented. (Example 2) Cantilever Bent Cap: a strut-and-tie model is developed to represent the flow of forces around a frame corner subjected to closing loads. This is accomplished, in part, through the design and detailing of a curved-bar node at the outside of the frame corner. (Example 3a) Inverted-T Straddle Bent Cap (Moment Frame): an inverted-T straddle bent cap is modeled as a component within a moment frame. Bottom-chord (ledge) loading of the inverted-T necessitates the use of local STMs to model the flow of forces through the bent cap cross section. (Example 3b) Inverted-T Straddle Bent Cap (Simply Supported): the inverted-T bent cap of Example 3a is designed as a simply supported member. Results for both the moment frame case and the simply supported case are compared to illustrate the influence of boundary condition assumptions. (Example 4) Drilled-Shaft Footing: three-dimensional STMs are developed to properly model the flow of forces through a deep drilled-shaft footing. Two unique load cases are considered to familiarize the designer with the development of such models.

The results of this thesis highlight the significance of implementing lean manufacturing, especially in a dynamic environment. As the instability in the environment increases, profitability decreases. Therefore, an increase in leanness by boosting inventory turns can compensate for the volatility and create enhanced productivity measures and financial results.
