Download or read book Lighthouses and Keepers written by Dennis L Noble and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2014-01-15 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the East Coast to the West Coast, the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico and Hawaiian Islands, this handsome book helps explain the lure of lighthouses in the United States. Among the most recognized structures of the maritime world, these lonely sentinels by the sea have long been the subject of paintings and photographs. Today they continue to capture public imagination as Americans flock to their sites for visits and volunteer to help preserve these endangered structures. This book covers all aspects of the subject, not only lighthouses and lightships but buoys, buoy tenders, fog signals, and their keepers. The work is as rich in historical information as it is in rarely seen photographs, and fourteen maps guide readers to the exact locations of the lighthouses. Readers are also treated to stories of shipwrecks and rescues, including the extraordinary story of Ida Lewis, head keeper of the light at Lime Rock, Rhode Island, who rescued eighteen people from the sea.

Download or read book Animal Care and Management at the National Zoo written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2005-11-27 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report follows up on an interim report released in February 2004 that focused on immediate needs in the areas of animal care and management, recordkeeping, and pest control. The report finds that the zoo has made good-faith efforts to correct deficiencies noted in the interim report and has made some noticeable improvements in the past year in zoo operations and animal care. However, problems in areas such as staff training, workplace culture, and strategic planning still need to be addressed. Specifically, the report recommends that the zoo immediately develop and implement animal-care training programs to ensure that people who are directly responsible for the well-being of its animal collection are adequately prepared and competent. The report commends a zoo-initiated strategic planning process as a positive step, but recommends it contain a more detailed, comprehensive strategy of how it will meet short-term goals and that it should link plans to upgrade facilities with those to acquire animals. The zoo should also focus on improving communication among keepers, veterinarians, nutritionists, senior managers, and curators.

The war lord, Califae controls the third and most powerful stone. He’s using its magic to help him conquer all of Amerath. Daran, a teenager who calls himself Rat Boy to shield his true identity, unravels the ghost’s secrets, and is “adopted” by intelligence in the Monk’s two stones. The stones control events and pit an unwilling Daran against Califae. The stones’ first task for Daran’s alternate identity is a rescue. There’s a problem. The princess he’s sent to rescue, despises Rat Boy but dreams of marring Daran, not knowing they’re the same person. When Daran tries to sort things out, the magic further complicates his life, manipulating him into a third identity and deeper into the politics of the growing war. Daran wants to resume his quiet life as Rat Boy, but the magic stones of Amerath have other plans for him.
