The erratic behavior of the US and World Stock Markets required a change in trading strategy to avoid a loss of trading capital caused by enormous increases and decreases in the OEX and SPX during a trading day. My software program, SelfAdapDTN4, evolved during the last 10 years of tracking a great number of indices and many stocks. It became very complex to use for trading. In July 2010 I decided the complexity needed to be reduced for efficiency for the options trader. I renovated my software to focus on the best weekly options to consider for trading. By sorting thru the indices and stocks tracked by my old software I found there were several weekly options that were worth tracking in today's market. The new software program is SelfAdapJonWeeklyCndrs which emphasizes a simpler user interface. The size of the software was halved. Appendix B is an abbreviated version of the manual for the software .
The US Stock Market collapsed on Thursday, 6 May 2010 when the Dow Jones Index spiked down over 1000 points in a matter of a few minutes. Such a world market sell caused by a true Cyber attack could destroy the wealth of billions of people around the globe. This book will examine what Cyber Attacks could do to the civilized world, which grows more dependent on the Internet functioning properly to perform all of the complex tasks that need to be done every day.
The Author has been creating Visual Basic Programs for Options Trading while living in Spain starting in 1990. Your Author decided to write this book based on his writing new Options Trading programs using the most up to date Visual Pasic downloaded from the Visual Basic Website & Java. The downloads from Microsoft & Java are free of charge. The first sections explain the steps I had to take to use Visual Basic Express & Java Programming & the Java Platform to supplement the information in the Help section. I will give three examples of possible uses of Visual Basic. One Example is a program that allows you to use my latest Options Trading software for trading OEX Weekly Options which were first introduced in the CBOE on 28 October 2005. I adapted my OEX options trading strategies to use these weekly options. I use the realtime quotes from DTN.IQ & the free delayed quotes from CBOE for the programs. The second section explains how to use Visual Basic Express to prepare a PDF book document ready to submit to BookSurge/CreateSpace, subsidiary of Amazon.com & to Google Books Partner Program. The example can be. easily adapted to fit any POD publisher's format. The third example is totally different: how to win the TransPac Yacht Race from Los Angeles to Honolulu.
Your author, Dr. Jon Schiller, decided to write this book about Education in the 21st Century after observing what changes are taking place in the Public Schools from Kindergarten thru the 12th grade in high school. His co-author Emilie Manns Smyth had a unique experience teaching 18 years in the California elementary school system in Fullerton and in Huntington Beach, California. Then 25 years after retirement and after living in Spain for 17 years, she returned to California and began substitute teaching in a school district in the County of Santa Barbara all grades from Kindergarten through High School Seniors. She taught all classes offered to her, from high school honors English, special education classes at all levels, English as a Second Language classes, Physical Education at all levels, Automobile Mechanics, Drivers Education and Shop classes. This allowed her to contribute observations she had seen in the California school system and what was taught to the students over this wide range of years.
Your author has based this book on the advice of a Israeli agent on how to avoid terrorist attacks, which is spelled out in Chapter 1. His advice is generated from having lived in Israel for many years where terrorist attacks are a way of life since they have so many enemies who would love to eliminate Israel from the face of the earth. I am especially sensitive to terrorist attacks, since when I was working on a classified project in Iran during the late 1970's, the colleagues with whom I was working were traveling from the Tehran Hilton Hotel to the project site by automobile. All of the people were attacked and killed by terrorists. I feel lucky to be alive since I was not in the car that day.
Your author decided to write this book about Genome Mapping after attending a Dinner Lecture for Caltech Alumni living in the Santa Barbara County area of Mid-Coast California Dr David Barker, BS 1963 Caltech & PhD in Biochemistry from Brandeis University, gave a slide presentation on DNA sequencing and what it can tell you. In my quest for more knowledge about this exciting area of biochemistry, I sought more information about Genome Mapping and Entire DNA Sequencing from the Google and Yahoo search engines. As is common in Internet Research, I found a great deal of research was taking place worldwide. It was my objective to summarize this research in this book so my readers could learn what is happening and where to find more information about this important area of Biochemistry. One possibility is modifying your DNA to reduce susceptibility to certain diseases..perhaps we will be able to reduce our risk of cancer. One of my good friends died recently of Prostate Cancer, so my interest in combating Cancer has been intensified.
Your author decided to write this book about the Big Bang & Black Holes after attending a Caltech Associates dinner in which Dr. Sean Carroll gave a dynamic talk entitled: The Origin of the Universe and the Arrow of Time.

Your author decided to write this book about NanoTechnology after being reminded of the fantastic developments of Professor Richard P Feynman who was a professor at Caltech while your author was a physics student earning his BS there between 1947 and 1951. I started studying the pioneering research of Dr. Feynman after being reminded of his famous lecture titled: There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom. This discourse was presented at an American Physical Society meeting at Caltech on December 29, 1959. Feynman considered the possibility of direct manipulation of individual atoms as a more powerful form of synthetic chemistry than the methods used at the time. This became nanotechnology
