Mudball

Twins Alfie and Alfreeda are charged with getting Molly the West Highland white terrier fully groomed in time for her owner's wedding, where she will wear a collar bearing the wedding rings--the trouble is that Molly hates being groomed and has apparently buried the collar somewhere at the Hound Hotel.

During a rainy Minneapolis Millers baseball game in 1903, Little Andy Oyler has the chance to become a hero by hitting the shortest and muddiest home run in history.

Advances in technology and media have fundamentally changed the way people perceive research, how research studies are conducted, and the ways data are analyzed/how the findings are presented. Emerging internet-enabled technological tools have enhanced and transformed research in education and the way educators must adapt to conduct future studies. Advancing Educational Research With Emerging Technology provides innovative insights into cutting-edge and long-standing digital tools in educational research and addresses theoretical, methodological, and ethical dimensions in doing research in the digital world. The content within this publication examines such topics as computational linguistics, individualized learning, and mobile technologies. The design of this publication is suited for students, professors, higher education faculty, deans, academicians, researchers, and practitioners looking to expand their research through the use of a broad range of digital tools and resources.

A thorough revision of the previous "Environmental Engineer’s Mathematics Handbook," this book offers readers an unusual approach to presenting environmental math concepts, emphasizing the relationship between the principles in natural processes and environmental processes. It integrates the fundamental math operations performed by environmental practitioners for air, water, wastewater, solid/hazardous wastes, biosolids, environmental economics, stormwater operations, and environmental health, safety, and welfare. New material includes quadratic equations, Quadratic equations, Boolean algebra, statistics review, fundamental fire science, basic electricity for environmental practitioners, and environmental health computations and solutions.

A monster is loose in London And it's kind of Jin's fault that Zilombo got loose. He tracked the monster to slimy Oozeburn Creek, but how does he get Zilombo to go back into her mudball, where she can't hurt anyone? That's when Jin meets Chief Inspector of Ancient Artifacts A. J. Zauyamakanda--Mizz Z, for short--who has arrived to inspect the mudball and insists that Jin help her find the monster that hatched from it. But Zilombo gains new, frightening powers every time she reawakens. She's cleverer than ever before . . . . and she likes to eat babies. When Jin's older sister gets distracted along the Oozeburn and forgets to watch their baby brother, Smiler is easy pickings for Zilombo Will Jin's baby brother be the next baby on Zilombo's menu? As Zilombo's powers grow, Jin and Mizz Z team up to outsmart Zilombo

This volume contains the Proceedings of the Third International Conference on Copepoda, held at the British Museum (Natural History) in London during August 1987. The central theme of the conference was the biology of marine planktonic copepods, although the scientific programme was extremely varied reflecting the wide range of life styles adopted by copepods. The three invited symposia held during the conference focussed attention on particular topical areas of research within the field of marine plankton, and also provided reviews of chosen aspects of copepod biology. These symposia were highly successful. The papers they contained were both informative and stimulating and they bring to this volume a lasting significance. Each symposium was organised by its chairman; Bruce Frost (University of Washington) decided on the balance of topics, selected the speakers and introduced the session on 'The biology and taxonomy of Calanus', Roger Harris (Marine Biological Association) performed the same vital role for 'Experimental studies: rate processes in field populations of planktonic copepods', and Howard Roe (Institute of Oceanographic Sciences) for 'Oceanic and deep-sea copepods'. The impact of these papers will be much enhanced by the large number of high quality contributed and poster papers on marine plankton and by the invited review of 'Copepod luminescence' by Peter Herring (Institute of Oceano graphic Sciences). The fascinating review of 'Copepod eyes' by Mike Land FRS (University of Sussex) is not published here.

This completely updated version of the 1995 edition is an essential text that is referenced throughout the other volumes in the WSO Series. Readers will find practical discussions of mathematics, hydraulics, chemistry, and electricity as they relate to water topics and system operations.

The primary objective of this project was to determine differences in filter effluent water quality and media cleanliness between sand filters employing air scour and those employing surface wash. Discussed in detail are the findings that scour and surface wash systems performed similarly relative to filter effluent quality and filter cleanliness. The advantages of one system over another can be site-specific particularly in retrofit applications.
