Penny Higgin's The Jiger and the Tiraffe is a whimsical poem about the fanciful origins of tigers and giraffes coupled with a strong message for children: everyone is a special child of God.
Heroes are tested in the darkest moments, and not all of them return to the light. Private Avery Shetty has survived captivity on the alien world of Ferekon, but the experience has forever changed him. The scars of loss will never heal, but it's what's going on inside of him that presents the greatest danger. Originally, he had worried that his commanders would suppress the information he had on the untrustworthy Anirii. Now, being silenced is the least of his concerns. As Shetty fights for his life, the war for Ferekon sees a new twist, with the Anirii revealing their true nature and designs. With the diminished combined Kedraalian and League fleet at its most vulnerable, only the strong of will can bring humanity and its allies out of the darkness. The fifth book of this action-packed hybrid of military science fiction and sprawling space opera ratchets up the suspense. Be sure to pick up A Dark Time and continue The Chronicle of the Final Light series.

This is the largest and most comprehensive textbook on equine dentistry and maxillofacial surgery ever published, and includes the many major scientific advances made in this area over the last 25 years. It also describes in great detail numerous developments in standard and advanced equine dental surgical techniques. The 38 authors include the most prominent academic and clinical specialists in equine dentistry in the world, and most of the authors are Equine Diplomates of the European or American Colleges of Veterinary Dentistry. This textbook will be essential reading for all equine veterinarians performing dentistry especially those who wish to specialise in more advanced equine dentistry, including maxillofacial surgery. Sections of the book will also be of great interest to undergraduate veterinary students, equine interns, equine surgical residents, and veterinary anatomists and pathologists.
Unearthing the amazing hidden stories of women who changed paleontology forever. For centuries, women have played key roles in defining and developing the field of vertebrate paleontology. Yet very little is known about these important paleontologists, and the true impacts of their contributions have remained obscure. In Rebels, Scholars, Explorers, Annalisa Berta and Susan Turner celebrate the history of women "bone hunters," delving into their fascinating lives and work. At the same time, they explore how the discipline has shaped our understanding of the history of life on Earth. Berta and Turner begin by presenting readers with a review of the emergence of vertebrate paleontology as a sc...
In the June 2010 budget, the Government set out a range of proposals aimed at curbing Housing Benefit expenditure that will be introduced between 2011 and 2013. The measures were referred to the Social Security Advisory Committee and this report outlines their recommendations and the Government's response to those recommendations. Principally these included: the removal of the five bedroom Local Housing Allowance rate so the maximum level is for a four bedroom property; the introduction of absolute caps to the Local Housing Allowance; the removal of £15 weekly Housing Benefit excess; include an additional bedroom with the size criteria where there is a proven need for overnight care that is...
This volume focuses on the reconstruction of past ecosystems and provides a comprehensive review of current techniques and their application in exemplar studies. The 18 chapters address a wide variety of topics that span vertebrate paleobiology and paleoecology (body mass, postcranial functional morphology, evolutionary dental morphology, microwear and mesowear, ecomorphology, mammal community structure analysis), contextual paleoenvironmental studies (paleosols and sedimentology, ichnofossils, pollen, phytoliths, plant macrofossils), and special techniques (bone microstructure, biomineral isotopes, inorganic isotopes, 3-D morphometrics, and ecometric modeling). A final chapter discusses how to integrate results of these studies with taphonomic data in order to more accurately characterize an ancient ecosystem. Current investigators, advanced undergraduates, and graduate students interested in the field of paleoecology will find this book immensely useful. The length and structure of the volume also makes it suitable for teaching a college-level course on reconstructing Cenozoic ecosystems.
