093921704X | Naro the Ancient Spider: The Creation of the Universe (Myths of the Heavens) | Susan Joyce | Grade 2-4-- Although Naro the Ancient gets top billing, the central character is her son, Naro the Younger, who enters the unfinished universe his mother left, using power and knowledge to make life possible. Inspired by an Oceanic creation story, this telling falls well short of the concision and poetic force of myth. If events in myth are to seem inevitable, here readers feel they are merely arbitrary; the narrative doesn't move forward inexorably, but halts and wanders. Stylistic awkwardness (" 'The earth and sky have not been separated,' he said exasperated.") is a further impediment. Joyce, apparently reluctant to face a central moment--when the younger creative power slays the older--makes matricide appear accidental. The book's weaknesses are not compensated for by the murky art and unprofessional layout. --Patricia Dooley, Univ . of Washington, Seattle<BR>Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc. | [

Robinson, Spider - The Mind 3 - Lifehouse

We come spinning out of nothingness,
Scattering stars like dust.
Look at these worlds spinning out of

This is within your power.
Out beyond ideas of right-doing and wrong-

There is a field.

IUPAC definition
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Biodegradation is the disintegration of materials by bacteria,
fungi, or other biological means. Although often conflated,
biodegradable is distinct in meaning from compostable. While
biodegradable simply means to be consumed by microorganisms,
"compostable" makes the specific demand that the object break
down under composting conditions. The term is often used in
relation to ecology, waste management, biomedicine, and the
natural environment (bioremediation) and is now commonly
associated with environmentally friendly products that are capable
of decomposing back into natural elements. Organic material can
be degraded aerobically with oxygen, or anaerobically, without
oxygen. Biosurfactant, an extracellular surfactant secreted by
microorganisms, enhances the biodegradation process.
Biodegradable matter is generally
organic material that serves as a
nutrient for microorganisms.

Biogas
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Biogas typically refers to a mixture of different gases produced by the
breakdown of organic matter in the absence of oxygen. Biogas can be
produced from raw materials such as agricultural waste, manure, municipal
waste, plant material, sewage, green waste or food waste. Biogas is a
renewable energy source and in many cases exerts a very small carbon
footprint.
Biogas can be produced by anaerobic digestion with anaerobic organisms,
which digest material inside a closed system, or fermentation of
biodegradable materials.[1]
Biogas is primarily methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) and may have small amounts of hydrogen
sulfide (H2S), moisture and siloxanes. The gases methane, hydrogen, and carbon monoxide (CO) can be
combusted or oxidized with oxygen. This energy release allows biogas to be used as a fuel; it can be used
for any heating purpose, such as cooking. It ca |

1770413189 | Ice Diaries: An Antarctic Memoir | Jean McNeil | <P><I>Ice Diaries</I> is stunningly written and should be on the shelf of anyone fascinated by the globes final geographic and psychic frontier. <I>New York Times</I></P><BR> <P>McNeils first-person narrative of her experience wholly absorbs. . . Most of <I>Ice Diaries</I>, however, reads like a novel. Its a paradox: the best novels emulate real life and the best true stories emulate fiction. <I>Macleans</I></P><BR> <P>It's a discussion of the Antarctic as a physical landscape its impact on the imagination and an exploration of one person's inner world. <I>Chicago Tribune</I></P><BR> <P><I>Ice Diaries</I> artfully conveys both the magical allure and the deadly hauteur of this icy world that few of us will ever see. <I>Toronto Star</I></P><BR> <P>She writes about the loneliness, the fear, the utter darkness, and the rare an d incredible beauty of places few of us will ever visit. Highly recommended. For the Love of Books</P><BR> <P>In <I>Ice Diaries</I>, McNeil brings the austere beauty and the constant danger of the continent to life. Weaving science and narrative, she draws vivid portraits of the people who are drawn to the unforgiving continent and the importance of the research conducted in the worlds icy places. Her descriptions of the ships and bases, those thin membranes against the elements, are unforgettable. . . <I>Ice Diaries</I> is a rare glimpse at an elusive continent and a haunting story of the relationship between beauty and terror, loss and abandonment, transformation and triumph. SirReadaLot.org</P><BR> <P>The reason I picked this book up was because I love that combination of geography, history and science but from a writers perspective. . . All in all this was a varied and enjoyable read. Books Are a Uniquely Portable Magic</P><BR> <P>[McNeil's] new book is a welcome literary-minded addition to a category of books dominated by male explorers. <I>Metro</I></P><BR> <P>McNeil is a tremendous writer who brings the Antarctic landscape to life with the deftness of her prose, and her memoir is rich with fascinating details. Pickle Me This</P><BR> <P>The first and undoubtably most successful part is the descriptive writing about the landscape of Antarctica and the conditions of life on a base there. . . It is this type of descriptive writing which is the real strength of the book. It's interesting to learn the details of a scientific expedition under extreme conditions, of course, but it is the Antarctic we want to visualize, and we can, though McNeil's remarkable writing. <I>The Fiddlehead</I></P> | [

THE PNEUKATIO OLOCK.
Among the many wonderful pieces of mechanism to be
seen at the Paris Exhibition, the pneumatic clocks exhibited
in the Austrian section are not the least interesting.
These
clocks give exact time to all the clocks of a city simulta
neously, whether the distance of the latter from them be six
miles or sixty.
The system has now been in operation for
about two years in Vienna, where the time is sent in this
way from the Imperial Observatory, through tubes laid along
the gas mains in different parts of the city, to all the public
clocks, the hands of which all move by this arrangement at
the same time.
The city of Paris has recently authorized
the " Societe des Horloges" to make a public trial of this
pneumatic apparatus, with a view to the possible adoption
of the system.

He had been almost aware for some time. Nothingness had shattered when they removed him from the
chamber long concealed behind the centuries empty tomb of a forgotten priest. The final layer of the
binding spell had been written on the rock wall smashed to gain access and, with that gone, the spell
itself had begun to fray.
Every movement frayed it further. The surrounding ka, more souls than had been near him in millennia,
called him to feed. Slowly, he reached for memory.
Then, just as he brushed against self and had only to reach out and grasp it and draw home the key to his
freedom, the movement stopped and the lives went away. But the nothingness didn't quite return.
And that was the worst of all.

0743488407 | Sunrise Alley | Catherine Asaro | Adult/High School - Samantha Bryton, a brilliant young biotech engineer working on machine intelligence, has retired because of unresolved ethical issues concerning how the industry uses her work. On the beach near her secluded cabin, she finds a shipwrecked man, and it quickly becomes apparent that there is something unusual about him. It turns out that the original Turner Pascal is legally dead, but he has been brought back to life in a technologically enhanced but human-appearing body by the shadowy scientist Charon, who uses illegal and amazingly advanced technology. Self-aware, independent AIs (called EIs if they evolve to that state) are extremely rare and prone to psychological instability, and Sam is one of the few people in the world who understands and can work with them. It is no coincidence that Turner has ended up on her beach in his attempt to escape from Charon. As they flee villains who want to acquire Turner's technology, the two try to unravel the mystery of the identity of Charon and the true nature of "Sunrise Alley," a secret society of escaped EIs who may pose a threat to humans. Through many trials and adventures, friendship and sexual attraction gradually develop between Sam and Turner (though she worries about his nonhuman characteristics and dubious legal status). The plot is an epic chase across a near-future landscape, enlivened by twists, complicated puzzles to solve, plenty of intriguing technology, and a strong element of romance.<i> - Christine C.

1186606002 | Kingdom of God and the End Times | Atef Meshreky | How do we understand the Kingdom of God and the scene of the end times, both biblically and practically?In this book, you will learn about the Kingdom of God and the world of today; its stages/aspects; and the economy/plans of the end times.You will also learn important economies which the Holy Spirit reveals concerning the kingdom of the Antichrist and its purpose of destroying humanity.You will learn how to resist these evil economies by the triumphing grace of God. The book also offers an understanding of the counter economy of the Holy Spirit which annuls the evil economies and preserves the Church so that she would complete her mission and be prepared as the Bride who awaits His glorious return! Dr. Meshreky was devoted to medicine before being called to be set apart and committed for the Lord. In obedience to his calling, he became a consecrated celibate brother of the Coptic Church. He began to live a life in ministry, but faced spiritual struggles. He desired a holy life, but when comparing his spiritual reality to the picture of the true Christian life in the New Testament, he realized the disparity. Recurring sins/weaknesses remained;causing a yearning for a transformation that would manifest the grace of the New Testament. He entered into spiritual seclusion. During his seclusion years of worship, fasting, praying, and studying the word of God, He revealed rich mysteries and guided him to the way of the deep life in the Spirit. In his 40 years of ministry/seclusion, the Lord led him to discover the wells of the Early Fathers of the Church. These wells have rich springs, sources of living water of the Church that can lead us into deep/fulfilling worship in the Spirit. He has dedicated himself to share this with the body of Christ, in order to deepen the spiritual life enabling the Church to face end time challenges, reunite the mind of Christ in the Church East and West, and prepare the Bride for the second coming of Christ. | [

_Being an account of beginnings-and endings_
-Excerpts from _The Book of Torak_
HEAR ME, YE Angaraks, for I am Torak, Lord of Lords and King of Kings. Bow
before my Name and worship me with prayers and with sacrifices, for I am your
God and I have dominion over all the realms of the Angaraks. And great shall
be my wrath if ye displease me.
I was, before the world was made. I shall be, after the mountains crumble into
sand, the seas dwindle to stagnant pools, and the world shrivels and is no
more. For I was before time and shall be after.

0007217099 | Belgarath the Sorcerer | David Eddings | The life story of Belgararth the Sorcerer: his own account of the great struggle that went before the Belgariad and the Malloreon, when gods stills walked the land. Here is the full epic story of Belgarath, the great sorcerer learned in the Will and the Word on whom the fate of the world depends. Only Belgarath can tell of those near-forgotten times when Gods still walked the land: he is the Ancient One, the Old Wolf, his God Aldur's first and most-favoured disciple. Using powers learned over the centuries Belgarath himself records the story of conflict between two mortally opposed Destinies that split the world asunder. A hugely entertaining work of great daring, wit, grandeur and excitement that confirms the role of Belgarath the Sorcerer as one of the mightiest fantasy creations of the century. | [

0809464705 | The World in Arms: TimeFrame AD 1900-1925 (Time Frame) | Editors of Time-life Books | Best-selling author Richard Carlson, Ph.D., creator of the popular Don't Sweat the Small Stuff series and the just published Don't Get Scrooged, died suddenly of cardiac arrest enroute to New York on December 13. Carlson, 45, published his first book in 1985 and went on to publish more than 20 books that remain popular in English and in translation in 130 languages and 35 countries. Richard Carlson grew up in Piedmont, CA. He received his undergraduate degree from Pepperdine University and his Ph.D. in psychology from Sierra University. He was in private practice as a psychotherapist when he started to publish books about psychological and spiritual health. As his books started to attract a large audience, he began writing full time so he could teach more people how to live with presence and ease by cultivating gratitude and generosity. Dr. Carlson was a large supporter of and participant in the National Center for Family Literacy and at the time of his death he was working on a project with them called for "A Penny a Book" from publishers, authors and literary agents to promote literacy. Dr. Carlson is survived by his wife and life partner of 25 years, Kris Carlson, his co-author on Don't Sweat the Small Stuff in Love and the author of Don't Sweat the Small Stuff for Women, his loving daughters Jasmine and Kenna, sisters, Kathleen Carlson Mowris of Olympic Village, CA and Anna L. Carlson of La Selva Beach, CA, and his parents, Barbara and Don Carlson of Orinda, CA. A private memorial service will be held next week. Donations in lieu of flowers can be made in Richard's honor to local food banks, Challenge Day, Girls Inc. or Children Inc. | [

magazine, acknowledged Friday that it had been subpoenaed by federal

Greg Bear, 1990
Two hundred years in the future, the Moon is emerging from an age of
innocence. Once pioneers, the easiest motto for these Lunar families is Cut
the politics. They think they are safe from the sophistication and corruption
of political intrigue.
William Pierce is searching for absolute zero. No scientist has yet succeeded,
and William is almost there... His wife Rho has bought 410 heads,
cryogenically frozen centuries before in the hope of resurrection. She thinks
she can read them for information.
There are dangers.
William doesn't quite understand that his experiments could distort space and
time. Rho doesn't realise that her heads will bring interference from a new
and deadly faction, the devotedly religious Logologists.
Cut the politics. But they can't. And the politics of this society could
destroy much, much more than Rho and William's work ...

the-art science, real characters and a |

0671656260 | The Regiment | John Dalmas | Alpha-Males: You can't live with 'em, but sometimes you can't live without 'em. An alien migration fleet -- 14,000 starships strong -- searches the stars for a new home, its homeworld forever lost. When they finally find planets that can support them, all they have to do is eradicate the pesky human natives, a task they assume is easily within their powers. But Earth's Commonwealth of Worlds isn't about to give up so easily -- even if it has to create and train something it hasn't had for centuries: soldiers! | [
