Felicia, Vinny's mother, is a strong willed individual who has grown tired of living the life of a crime boss" wife, and wants her son, with whom she is extremely close, to follow his dreams to a li...
Biodiversity Conservation and Habitat Management - Volume II
Biodiversity Conservation and Habitat Management is a component of Encyclopedia of Natural Resources Policy and Management in the global Encyclopedia of Life Support Systems (EOLSS), which is an integrated compendium of twenty one Encyclopedias. Biodiversity is declining worldwide at a very unprecedented rate as a complex response to several human-induced changes in the global environment. The magnitude of these changes is so large and their effects are so strongly linked to the altered ecosystem processes and to human (ab-)use of natural resources that biodiversity loss is today perceived as one of the most important issues that humankind should face with extreme urgency.

Scarpelli
Carmine Angelo Scarpelli, a tormented widower and devoted father and grandfather, was the respected head of a New York crime family, which he ran from his backroom office in the Bronx pizzeria and from his vacation home in Lower Saranac Lake, New York. With the blessing of the Columbian drug lord, Santiago Garcia, Scarpellis largest criminal enterprise was moving pure cocaine from Colombia, South America, to New York then further on to Boston forcing the blackmailed chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Congressman Jonathan Burnham to front the distribution point: the Brooklyn wholesale fruit warehouse. Scarpelli didnt stop there. He knew enough about the congressmans son, Johnny Burnham, a DEA Special Agent in the Manhattan Division DEA interdiction team, headed by Special Agent in Charge, Jack Finch, to turn Johnny into an informant for the Scarpelli familys local drug operations. But like Finch, Scarpelli also had a problem: a DEA informant within his own family. How both men were to solve both problems so that Finchs career would be saved; and Scarpellis operations would continue to succeed, that was the question.

Functional Imaging and Modeling of the Heart
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Functional Imaging and Modeling of the Heart, which took place online during June 21-24, 2021, organized by the University of Stanford. The 65 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 68 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: advanced cardiac and cardiovascular image processing; cardiac microstructure: measures and models; novel approaches to measuring heart deformation; cardiac mechanics: measures and models; translational cardiac mechanics; modeling electrophysiology, ECG, and arrhythmia; cardiovascular flow: measures and models; and atrial microstructure, modeling, and thrombosis prediction.
Computer Models in Biomechanics
This book contains a collection of papers that were presented at the IUTAM Symposium on “Computer Models in Biomechanics: From Nano to Macro” held at Stanford University, California, USA, from August 29 to September 2, 2011. It contains state-of-the-art papers on: - Protein and Cell Mechanics: coarse-grained model for unfolded proteins, collagen-proteoglycan structural interactions in the cornea, simulations of cell behavior on substrates - Muscle Mechanics: modeling approaches for Ca2+–regulated smooth muscle contraction, smooth muscle modeling using continuum thermodynamical frameworks, cross-bridge model describing the mechanoenergetics of actomyosin interaction, multiscale skeletal...
Shortfall
The Mollos had come to England to start a new life, buying a small farm in the heart of Devon, only to have their dream cruelly snatched from them. Now their teenage daughter has risked the family farm in a desperate attempt to preserve her parents’ legacy, betting everything on a new type of crop. But the country is in the midst of a financial crisis, and with more trouble looming, a Machiavellian mandarin has cooked up an outlandish scheme to manage what might otherwise be a difficult situation, threatening the young girl’s plans. Shortfall is a fictional tale inspired in some small part by real events now thought lost to time.
