Описание: The sound of the wind across a Prairie field, the smell of grass on thefirst day of spring, the vocalization of birds in the early morningwoods, the silence of the lake at night interrupted by call of the loon– these are the shapes and sounds of the Prairie landscape.Katherine Koller invokes the Prairie setting as a central character ineach of the four plays in Voices of the Land. Serving asupportive and, at other times, antagonistic role, the landscape actsupon the characters, driving and intensifying their transformation.

Описание: Darek must rescue Zantor and Pola from the dangerous mists of Krad in this fifth book in the fantastical Dragonling chapter book series When Darek's beloved dragonling, Zantor, and Darek's best friend, Pola, disappear into the mists of Krad, everyone assumes they're gone for good. But Darek just knows that Zantor and Pola are alive. He can hear the dragonling's cries for help, deep inside his own head. And much to his surprise, Rowena--the cause of all the trouble--hears them, too. Together Darek and Rowena sneak into Krad to rescue their friends. But they soon find that Krad is even more dangerous than they'd feared. So dangerous that it may be impossible to save anyone, even themselves...

Автор: Martin Koller Название: Current Advances in Biopolymer Processing & Characterization ISBN: 1536127108 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781536127102 Издательство: Nova Science Рейтинг: Цена: 215410.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: The book presents current R&D activities to unravel the physico-chemical properties of diverse biopolymers, and their processing towards functionalised, high-performance bio-products with defined applications. The importance of this research becomes obvious by considering the annual plastic production of about 330 Mt, the lions share thereof based on the conversion of fossil feedstocks that is highly recalcitrant against biodegradation. Alternative environmentally degradable plastics cover not even 5% of todays plastic market. Such biopolymers encompass various macromolecules of biological origin with diverse monomeric composition, and manifold physico-chemical properties. This structural diversity makes them potential candidates to produce bulk materials, e.g., for packaging purposes, smart functionalised materials in special niches like the biomedical field. Consequently, we witness an increasing trend towards new natural polymers to replace well-established products like plastics. After decades of global R&D developments in this field, and numerous body blows on the way to the anticipated market breakthrough of biopolymers, it is generally recognised that the success of such new materials needs progress in both material performance and production prices. The book Current Advances in Biopolymer Processing & Characterisation is dedicated to the current state-of-the-art of production, modification, characterisation, and processing of two major biopolymer groups: Firstly, polysaccharides, natures most abundant raw materials, are represented by specialised contributions on biomedical applications of starch and its follow-up products. Polysaccharides were also studied for the examples of functionalised thermoplastic starch, molecular and hydrocolloidal characteristics of xanthan in aqueous environments, and by the design of functionalised xylan-based bio-materials. Secondly, the second series of contributions encompasses diverse biopolyesters. Advanced methods to improve the properties of PLA, fine-tune PLA properties by triggering PLAs crystallisation rate during melt processing, and the strongly emerging field of 3D-printing of PLA, PCL, and microbial PHA are described. Finally, the authors familiarise the reader with the application of mixed microbial cultures to produce PHA heteropolyesters with different thermo-mechanical properties in dependence on cultivation strategy and the microbial species composition. This compilation of new biomaterials with surprising functions and performance, based on these natural polymers will address scientists active in biopolymers production, functionalisation, characterisation, and processing towards bio-technomers. The book is also dedicated to undergraduate students of polymer chemistry and polymer processing, and to representatives of the polymer industry who are interested in developing innovative, sustainable and smart polymeric products. Activities motivated by reading this book shall boost the impatiently desired market penetration of biopolymers and their follow-up products. Such materials definitely display a socioeconomic impact by addressing prevailing ecological concerns such as depleting fossil resources, growing piles of plastic waste, and increasing global warming. The contributions to this book illustrate that bio-inspired remedies for prevalent ecological problems are already available, developed by experts in polymer sciences and engineering, or that these solutions are at least in the status of development.

Описание: The study is a result of a collaborative research project addressing "The Implementation of the New Insolvency Regulation - Improving Cooperation and Mutual Trust". The project was undertaken by the Max Planck Institute Luxembourg for Procedural Law, the University of Vienna and the University of Milan, and co-funded by the European Union as part of the Commission's Action Grants 2013 for Civil Justice.The focus of the study concerns specific issues of cross-border insolvencies under the recast of the Insolvency Regulation which already has been prepared by a large part of the contributing authors in the Heidelberg-Vienna-Luxembourg Report.The study is comprised of three major topics:1.The Regulation's extended scope of application, including pre-insolvency and hybrid proceedings, the relationship between Article 1(1) of the Regulation and its Annex A, as well as the interplay between the Insolvency Regulation and the Brussels Ibis Regulation;2.the cooperation between main and secondary insolvency proceedings, the new instruments, such as "synthetic proceedings", destined to avoid or postpone the opening of secondary proceedings, further the cooperation between administrators and courts of different proceedings as well as protocols to enhance cooperation;3.insolvencies of groups of companies, with a particular focus on jurisdiction, COMI-migration, "group coordination proceedings" and other instruments of coordination.

"I solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic..."
A lifetime ago, a young naval aviator took the Oath. Tom McGuire, now a San Francisco PD homicide inspector, hadn't thought about that Oath in years. That was all about to change.
A famous San Francisco newspaper columnist has been murdered. Some would say "executed". Shot through the head, her arms tried behind her, knotted together from shoulder to wrist.
McGuire feels an eerie chill of recognition. After being shot down over North Vietnam, he suffered through seven years as a prisoner of war in the infamous Hanoi Hilton, enduring rope torture many times- his arms tied in exactly the same way.
A lifetime ago, another young naval aviator also took that Oath. He also was shot down over North Vietnam, and joined McGuire as a POW in Hanoi. His interpretation of the Oath differs from McGuire's.
After thirty years, their lives were about to intersect once again.

Описание: This book examines major literary texts by and about the Irish in the Middle Ages, providing an analysis of a spatial poetics developed over 600 years. It argues that the Irish theorised anew the concept of `place` and developed a `spatial turn` that reconfigured how communities in the Irish Sea region thought about writing, place and identity. -- .

Описание: Talmuda de-Eretz Israel: Archaeology and the Rabbis in Late Antique Palestine brings together an international community of historians, literature scholars and archaeologists to explorehow the integrated study of rabbinic texts and archaeology increases our understanding of both types of evidence, and of the complex culture which they together reflect. This volume reflects a growing consensus that rabbinic culture was an “embodied” culture, presenting a series of case studies that demonstrate the value of archaeology for the contextualization of rabbinic literature. It steers away from later twentieth-century trends, particularly in North America, that stressed disjunction between archaeology and rabbinic literature, and seeks a more holistic approach.
