Download or read book Controlled Damage written by Andrea Scott and published by Scirocco Drama. This book was released on 2020-10 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Controlled Damage explores the life of Canadian civil rights icon Viola Desmond and how her act of bravery in a Nova Scotia movie theatre in 1946 started a ripple effect that is still felt today. An ordinary woman forced to be extraordinary by an unyielding and racist world, Desmond never gave up -- despite the personal cost to her and those who loved her. Andrea Scott's highly theatrical examination of Desmond and her legacy traces the impact that she had on our culture, but also casts light on the slow progress of the fight for social justice and civil rights in Canada.

Download or read book Delivery and Controlled Release of Bioactives in Foods and Nutraceuticals written by Nissim Garti and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2008-01-25 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Active ingredients in foods must remain fully functional for as long as necessary and be transported and discharged appropriately to have the desired nutritional effect. Delivery and controlled release systems are an essential way to achieve these aims. This important book reviews how to optimise these systems to maximise the health-promoting properties of food products.Opening chapters review factors affecting nutrient bioavailability and methods to test delivery system efficacy. Part two addresses materials used and specific techniques for delivery and release. The benefits and drawbacks of structured lipids, micro- and nano-emulsions, food-protein-derived materials, complexes and conjugates of biopolymers, and starch as an encapsulation material for delivery of functional food ingredients, are all considered. Part three discusses the delivery and controlled release of particular nutraceuticals such as antioxidants and vitamins, folic acid, probiotics, fish oils and proteins. Part four covers regulatory issues and future trends in bioactives and nutraceuticals.Edited by a leading expert in the field, Delivery and controlled release of bioactives in foods and nutraceuticals is a valuable reference for those working in the food industry and particularly those developing nutraceuticals. - Reviews techniques to optimise the delivery and release of bioactives in food - Discusses the factors that affect nutrient bioavailability and methods to test delivery system efficacy - Addresses materials used and specific techniques for delivery and release

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The symposium was organised by Co-operative Bulk Handling Limited and the Australian Grain Institute Incorporated in collaboration with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation and Food and Agricultural Organisation of the United Nations. The meeting attracted 270 participants from 28 countries, and as it was devoted to the practical aspects of the subject, it included a field trip to sites in various stages of the sealing exercise in order to provide coverage of the broad aspects of grain handling, storage, transport and quality control. These proceedings contain the 49 papers presented, together with a description of the field visits, plus records and discussions.
Download or read book Extreme Nonlinear Optics with Spatially Controlled Light Fields written by Christian Kern and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2014 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As in all nonlinear optics, control over the spatial phase of the fundamental light fields allows extensive influence on the well-established effect of High-Har monic Generation (HHG). This results in the realisation of coherent extreme ultraviolet (XUV) light with unique properties. Christian Kern shows and discusses in his thesis two schemes where phase shaping of ultrashort laser pulses is appli ed on scales below their fundamental wavelength. He shows the limitations of how nanoplasmonic objects can be administered for strong field physics. Furthermore, a novel approach of producing XUV light carrying orbital angular momentum via HHG is demonstrated and experimentally verified.

Download or read book Longitudinal Occupancy of Controlled Access Right of way by Utilities written by Ronald L. Williams (P.E.) and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1996 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to highway administrators, design engineers, maintenance engineers and maintenance staff, traffic engineers, and safety officials. It will also provide useful information to the utilities and telecommunications industries. Information is presented on the state transportation agencies' policies, practices, and experience associated with occupancy of the rights-of-way on controlled (or limited) access highways. This report of the Transportation Research Board presents a brief history of accommodation of utilities in the right-of-way, including the policies developed over time by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and describes why there are issues associated with joint use of the highway right-of-way. A 1993/1994 survey of the state transportation agencies taken for this synthesis yielded 100% return, indicating the high interest in the subject. Issues included in the survey were policies and experiences regarding user and worker safety; controls placed on utilities; exceptions to right-of-way policies; and operational, legal, and equity issues.

Download or read book Controlled Women Constipated Men written by Dr. Terence C Teasdale and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-05-23 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terence Teasdale's new book enters interesting and heretical territory in the minds of many, especially women. Dr Teasdale's book explores the tyranny of the female gender in a way that one hundred or so other books deride the opposite gender. It is a most timely book (long overdue). The ladies should be able to handle it, as indeed we are all equal! Dr Teasdale's book is confronting and controversial. A lot of women will hate it! Jeffrey James This book is not a feel good book. This book will not enrapture most women. Certainly, not those I call controlled women. But, there again, it is not meant to imparadise women, even though its entire contents are devoted to them. The book is about women who are psychologically disturbed. And this means most women. It is about women who are controlled for their entire lives by negative emotions: emotions that are so potent that they convert into disabling mental disorders, gobbling-up self-esteem, and by bizarre and inappropriate behaviour, impairing and even destroying relationships. For sure, this book is about the severe damage controlled women inflict on themselves and others, especially their vulnerable children. Neurosis and depression in women and our late adolescents are increasing at an alarming rate. Controlled women are a demoralised gender.

Download or read book Mechanical Behavior of Materials written by Thomas H. Courtney and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2005-12-16 with total page 750 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This outstanding text offers a comprehensive treatment of the principles of the mechanical behavior of materials. Appropriate for senior and graduate courses, it is distinguished by its focus on the relationship between macroscopic properties, material microstructure, and fundamental concepts of bonding and crystal structure. The current, second edition retains the original editions extensive coverage of nonmetallics while increasing coverage of ceramics, composites, and polymers that have emerged as structural materials in their own right and are now competitive with metals in many applications. It contains new case studies, includes solved example problems, and incorporates real-life examples. Because of the books extraordinary breadth and depth, adequate coverage of all of the material requires two full semesters of a typical three-credit course. Since most curricula do not have the luxury of allocating this amount of time to mechanical behavior of materials, the text has been designed so that material can be culled or deleted with ease. Instructors can select topics they wish to emphasize and are able to proceed at any level they consider appropriate.
