All ten episodes from the first season of the Emmy Award-nominated
historical drama series focusing on the life and romances of the
young King Henry VIII (Jonathan Rhys Meyers). Set in Renaissance
Britain during the early part of Henry's reign, the series portrays
the passionate and irascible king, his Spanish Queen Catherine
(Maria Doyle Kennedy), his ministers Sir Thomas More (Jeremy
Northam) and Cardinal Wolsey (Sam Neil), and a host of would-be
mistresses and wives. As bold and passionate about his country as
he is about his women, Henry's obsession with ensuring his legacy
leads to the beheading of both friends and foes, the waging of wars
and a challenge to the Catholic Church - events that forever
changed the face of the British Empire. Episodes comprise: 'In Cold
Blood', 'Simply Henry', 'Wolsey, Wolsey, Wolsey!', 'His Majesty,
the King', 'Arise, My Lord', 'True Love', 'Message to the Emperor',
'Truth and Justice', 'Look to God First' and 'The Death of Wolsey'.
An outstanding compilation of piano etudes and exercises from the
ever-popular BA1/4rgmuller's 25 Progressive Pieces, Opus 100,
Czerny's Practical Method for Beginners on the Piano, Opus 599, and
Hanon's The Virtuoso Pianist. Etudes are organized into four units
according to difficulty and emphasize different aspects of
technique and musicianship. Hanon exercises are included within
each unit to reinforce the need for finger strength, independence
and agility. Information about each composer's life, music and
books is also provided.
Book 3 includes attractive musical etudes by Carl Czerny, Johann F.
Burgmuller and Stephen Heller and select exercises by Charles-Louis
Hanon. The studies are organized into four units, each focusing on
mastering a particular skill. Performance suggestions for each
study are included, along with composer biographies and suggested
practice alternatives for the Hanon etudes. Includes 16 studies by
Czerny, 5 by Burgmuller (including "The Pearls" and "The Storm"),
and 8 by Heller (including "Through Wind and Rain" and
"Novelette"). 80 pages.
Since the central theme of this book is the transmission of disease
agents through the food chain, we will examine influenza viruses
from this perspective. Influenza A viruses are found in humans,
pigs, horses, sea mammals, and also in wild aquatic and domestic
birds 23]. How are they spread? Between mammals, influenza is an
airborne infection, but between birds, influenza can be either an
airborne or waterborne infection. Influenza viruses of aquatic
birds periodically transmit to domestic birds sometimes with
catastrophic effects; this transmis sion can be either airborne or
waterborne. Less frequently, avian influenza viruses transmit to
mammals and three to four times in the past century this
transmission has initiated a pandemic of influenza in humans. The
method of spread of avian influenza viruses to mammals remains
unresolved, but could be either airborne or waterborne. In this
report we will consider recent examples of interspecies
transmission of influenza A viruses and the possible prevention of
emergence of the next human pandemic which is considered imminent.
The reservoirs of influenza A viruses The available evidence
indicates that aquatic birds are the reservoirs of all 15 subtypes
of influenza A viruses. We will first consider the replication of
influenza A in aquatic birds. In wild ducks, influenza viruses
replicate preferentially in the cells lining the intestinal tract,
cause no disease signs, and 8 7 are excreted in high concentrations
in the feces (up to 10 ."

comprehensive approach to transferring from the C to F instrument.
430 music examples include folk and national songs (some in two
parts), country dance tunes and excerpts from the standard treble
repertoire ofBach, Barsanti, Corelli, Handel, Telemann, etc. An
outstanding feature of the book has proved to be Brian Bonsor's
brilliantly simple but highly effective practice circles and
recognition squares designed to give, in only a few minutes,
concentrated practice on the more usual leaps to and from each new
note and instant recognition of random notes. Quickly emulating the
outstanding success of the descant tutors, these books are very
popular even with those who normally use tutors other than the
