Book excerpt: Chickery hated having a weird family. While everyone at his school thought his or her family was sort of strange, for Chickery "strange" was an understatement. Often, he fantasized that his mother had taken the wrong baby from the hospital. Maybe, somewhere, there was a family with whom Chickery could relate. Maybe, somewhere, he could finally feel as though he fit in. His brother, Tommy, has always dreamed of being a world-class boxer. He even wears boxing gloves! Chickery is always embarrassed by Tommy, but one day, on the way to school, it gets even worse. Tommy breaks a window with his boxing gloves, and Chickery and Tommy are tossed onto the street. Instead of heading home, Chickery decides to run away to the local zoo, where he meets Larry, the lonely lion. Chickery and Larry become fast friends. Before meeting each other, they feel like outcasts; but together they don't feel so alone. However, Chickery soon discovers that Larry has a strange secret of his own, and Chickery must come to terms with the danger surrounding him at the zoo. He must also come to terms with his own individuality and the fact that being peculiar isn't always a bad thing.

Book excerpt: Travel absurdities, a gathering of stories that have been etched in my memories for years. These incidents were not necessarily funny when they occured but can't help but laugh as I look back in fondness. Vacations, holidays, family reunions, summer outings are supposed to afford us with time to relax and renew our bodies from the normal daily grind of life but oftentimes become mishap ridden as we try to avoid the stress that made us take the trip in the first place. A vicious circle, but just ask me if I want to go somewhere, my answer is always yes! I never completely unpack my carryon. My luggage sits next to my bed beckoning me to take it out the door. This world is so vast and I have such memorable stories to tell, some absured, some humorous and others just one mishap after another. The stories people listen to, sometimes in disbelief.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classic in the field, Criminal Investigation: A Method for Reconstructing the Past, Eighth Edition, presents the fundamentals of criminal investigation and provides a sound method for reconstructing a crime based on three major sources of information: people, physical evidence, and records. By breaking information sources into these three major components, the book provides a logical approach that helps students remember and achieve mastery of these essentials. More than a simplistic introductory text, yet written in an easy-to-read, user-friendly format, it offers a broad treatment of criminal investigation. Updated and streamlined since the prior edition, the text covers the foundations and principles of criminal investigation, analysis of specific crimes, and explores special topics including enterprise crime, arson and explosives, computers and technological crime, increasing threats and emerging crime, and terrorism and urban disorder. This discussion of contemporary and future criminal activity teaches students facts about the present as well as the skills to stay current in a rapidly changing field. This book is indispensable for core courses in criminal investigation. Chapters include a variety of helpful charts, tables, and illustrations, as well as discussion questions that provide focus on the most important points. A glossary provides definitions for terms that have specialized meanings, and an online companion site offers an array of resources for both students and instructors.
Download or read book Fractal Physiology written by James B Bassingthwaighte and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-05-27 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I know that most men, including those at ease with the problems of the greatest complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they have delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to others, and which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabric of their lives. Joseph Ford quoting Tolstoy (Gleick, 1987) We are used to thinking that natural objects have a certain form and that this form is determined by a characteristic scale. If we magnify the object beyond this scale, no new features are revealed. To correctly measure the properties of the object, such as length, area, or volume, we measure it at a resolution finer than the characteristic scale of the object. We expect that the value we measure has a unique value for the object. This simple idea is the basis of the calculus, Euclidean geometry, and the theory of measurement. However, Mandelbrot (1977, 1983) brought to the world's attention that many natural objects simply do not have this preconceived form. Many of the structures in space and processes in time of living things have a very different form. Living things have structures in space and fluctuations in time that cannot be characterized by one spatial or temporal scale. They extend over many spatial or temporal scales.

Book excerpt: The Institute of Medicine carried out a study mandated by Congress and sponsored by the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide an assessment of several issues related to noise-induced hearing loss and tinnitus associated with service in the Armed Forces since World War II. The resulting book, Noise and Military Service: Implications for Hearing Loss and Tinnitus, presents findings on the presence of hazardous noise in military settings, levels of noise exposure necessary to cause hearing loss or tinnitus, risk factors for noise-induced hearing loss and tinnitus, the timing of the effects of noise exposure on hearing, and the adequacy of military hearing conservation programs and audiometric testing.

Download or read book Alaska Having the Best Time I Ever Had written by Larry S. Mikelsen and published by Author House. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a boy, I was lucky enough to be introduced an elderly gentleman by the name of Robert R. (Bob) Huttle (Mr. Huttle to me). I remember Mr. Huttle as a man of many interesting stories, and experiences. Mr. Huttle was a good friend of my father, and for quite a number of years was sort of an informal member of our family, being in attendance for Christmas, Thanksgiving, birthdays, and any other family gatherings. His little home, along with its menagerie of exotic fowl in a little community called Annapolis, Washington was always a most fun place to visit. Throughout his life, Bob was an avid photographer with a genuine interest in people, who religiously recorded all that, was going on around him in his more than interesting life. The walls of his home were covered with pictures and memorabilia of that lifetime. There were times when Bob would take out his old picture albums and show my brother and me pictures of his times up in the State of Alaska. I always remember that these times seemed to be events he treasured, and each picture came with a story that would flow off his lips with obvious pleasure. After coming to America, serving in the U.S. Marine Corp., Bob spent 1933 - 1934 living his dream on the Alaskan Kenai Peninsula near what was then called Birchwood Creek (now Bear Creek) on Tustumena Lake, as a hunter and an amateur trapper (as he referred to himself). In January of 1937, Bob was hired as a patrolman with the Anchorage Police Department and 21 days later he had to give up his beat to come indoors as the Acting Police Chief, replacing the then seriously ill Chief of Police Ernie Amundsen.

Book excerpt: Reeling I sat back in the chair and closed my eyes as I tried to make sense of the nonsense; the power of the blow was devastating: my life had imploded, my world was crumbling around me. I was tying to absorb just having been given the worst news of my life. I was going to die. We are doomed from the moment we’re born. 'I can't choose how to die but I can choose how to live'. (Joni Mitchell). If I only learned one thing in forty-eight years of life it was people only respected you for your strength and never your weakness. I had been weak but never mind, what time left to me would be put to good use. 'It's never too late.' My beloved grandma used to say. Timing's everything in this life, you can more or less do anything you want............as you as you get the timing right.
