This book was released on 2022-05-13 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether it was because Nick was the second child and striving for attention, or because he didn't want to let his parents down, I don't know. All that I do know for certain is that inside of Nick was a burning desire that would not let him settle for less than the best. Being average was something that Nick never considered. This book is a compilation of everything that he thought about while overcoming obstacles in pursuit of his goals, athletics, and in life afterwards. If you are satisfied going through life being average, when you are older, you will only have average memories. Push yourself.

Download or read book The Call of the Crawfish Frog written by Michael J. Lannoo and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-03-16 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crawfish Frogs (Rana areolata) have been called the most secretive frog in North America, and it is unusual in the twenty-first century – in the most scientifically advanced country in the world – that basic discoveries can still be made on an animal that inhabits a quarter of the United States. This is not only a story of the biology of Crawfish Frogs, but a case study of discovery. This volume describes the life history and natural history critical to the survival of the endangered amphibian and recommends management actions to ensure persistence. The authors tell an optimistic conservation biology story and fill a gap between science and the public. The authors have compiled and summarized the peer-reviewed literature on the biology of Crawfish Frogs, which may be one of the most interesting frogs in North America (that nobody knows about). Key Features Recounts the story of an imperiled species and how to go about saving it Vividly brings science to life and makes it accessible Provides a popular account of natural history research and ecological fieldwork Related Titles D.

Download or read book Allison s Wedding Dress written by Charlie Brough and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004-07 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Allison's Wedding Dress, one of the 46 short stories in this book is based on a young woman the author met and observed while living and working in Aberdeen, Washington. The fictionalized account of her life was chosen to be the cornerstone of this collection of short stories, all of which are written by the author of this book. This collection is sure to entertain readers of all ages. Allison, raised by her great aunt and uncle, lived under extremely rigid conditions. She was forced to marry a total stranger who used her in place of frequenting the local brothel. Emotionally battered and practically brainwashed that she was going to go to hell, Allison lived a lonesome and forlorn life in her and John's tiny rundown home next to the railroad tracks. The very same house where her mother, by the same name, had died. Many of these stories are true to life or based on real events from newspaper articles. "Mega Woman" details how winning the Mega Bucks lottery, may have changed the life of a young woman struggling to make ends meet. Other stories answer questions never before answered, like, "how did the SCUD missile come by its name?" The "Mystery Of The Mima Mounds" is my offering of science fiction.

Book excerpt: Bruce Wyndam, a young widower working as a materials engineer, is frustrated because his creativity is unappreciated by his boss Jerry Hopper. Then he accidentally discovers a remarkable metal alloy which appears to violate the laws of physics. Jerry's secretary Marilee sympathizes, but he can't get anyone else to listen until Harry, the company's PR man, eager to promote something new, arrives on the scene. Before Bruce realizes what's happening, Harry has arranged demonstrations and a press conference, leading to unrealistic claims for gravimetal. The media react unfavorably, and Bruce becomes the target of the resulting criticism. Nevertheless he persists and finally makes gravimetal a success. Reporter Joyce Allen is fascinated by Bruce and his creativity, and begins to send him notes and clippings about various applications, which include a flywheel-driven rail car. Bruce uses gravimetal in a toy train, and when conveyors fail and cause Jerry's bags to be delayed at the airport, an ideal application comes to light. Meanwhile, Bruce is slowly emerging from his shell and developing close relationships with Jerry's secretary Marilee as well as with Joyce. Rather than coping with loneliness, he is now faced with making a choice between two attractive women.
