Characters: 3 male, 3 female

With help from Uncle Pirate and his faithful talking penguin, maybe, just maybe, Wilson can survive the fourth grade. Wilson is just your average kid. Then one day he finds out his uncle is a pirate... like, a REAL pirate! Grab yer eye patches and pirate hats, mateys! The adventure begins now!

"At heart Uncle Pirate proves more of a Boy Scout than a buccaneer, but that won't distress theatergoers under 12, this diverting and often funny musical's ideal audience... Theatergoers at a recent performance particularly enjoyed a classroom duel in which Uncle Pirate bravely wields first a pointer, then a ruler and finally a book. Education, it seems, really is the way to win life's battles." -New York Times.

"There's a talking penguin and plenty of 'arrrs!' for the young'uns, while elementary schoolersand their parents will appreciate the sarcastic dialogue and clever songs...a whimsical adaptation of the eponymous kids book is Jolly Roger fun." -Time Out New York

Electron emission is a fundamental phenomenon which accompanies most interactions of energetic particles with solid surfaces. Not only is it a special effect which for almost ninety years has attracted the interest of physicists, but it is also of acute importance in such fields as radiation effects and transport phenomena in solids (e.g., radiation biology), plasma-surface interactions, microtechnology, surface analysis, ion microscopies, particle detector development and others. While "Volume I" emphasizes the theoretical description of the mechanisms of electron emission, this volume reviews modern experimental trends and aspects of the phenomenon, e.g., kinetic electron emission from massive solids and from thin foils under bombardment with positive, negative, and neutral particles, and the measurement of electron statistics in connection with potential and kinetic emission due to slow singly and multiply charged projectiles.

It's been called the greatest novel ever written. Now, Tolstoy's timeless saga of love and betrayal is transported to an awesomer version of 19th-century Russia. It is a world humming with high-powered groznium engines: where debutantes dance the 3D waltz in midair, mechanical wolves charge into battle alongside brave young soldiers, and robots-miraculous, beloved robots!-are the faithful companions of everyone who's anyone. Restless to forge her own destiny in this fantastic modern life, the bold noblewoman Anna and her enigmatic Android Karenina abandon a loveless marriage to seize passion with the daring, handsome Count Vronsky. But when their scandalous affair gets mixed up with dangerous futuristic villainy, the ensuing chaos threatens to rip apart their lives, their families, and-just maybe-all of planet Earth.

Critically acclaimed author Ben H. Winters delivers this explosive final installment in the Edgar Award winning Last Policeman series. With the doomsday asteroid looming, Detective Hank Palace has found sanctuary in the woods of New England, secure in a well-stocked safe house with other onetime members of the Concord police force. But with time ticking away before the asteroid makes landfall, Hank's safety is only relative, and his only relative--his sister Nico--isn't safe. Soon, it's clear that there's more than one earth-shattering revelation on the horizon, and it's up to Hank to solve the puzzle before time runs out . . . for everyone.

"The Last Policeman" received the 2013 Edgar Award for Best Paperback Original--along with plenty of glowing reviews.
Now Detective Hank Palace returns in "Countdown City," the second volume of the "Last Policeman "trilogy. There are just 77 days before a deadly asteroid collides with Earth, and Detective Palace is out of a job. With the Concord police force operating under the auspices of the U.S. Justice Department, Hank's days of solving crimes are over...until a woman from his past begs for help finding her missing husband.
Brett Cavatone disappeared without a trace--an easy feat in a world with no phones, no cars, and no way to tell whether someone's gone "bucket list" or just "gone." With society falling to shambles, Hank pieces together what few clues he can, on a search that leads him from a college-campus-turned-anarchist-encampment to a crumbling coastal landscape where anti-immigrant militia fend off "impact zone" refugees.
"Countdown City" presents another fascinating mystery set on brink of an apocalypse--and once again, Hank Palace confronts questions way beyond "whodunit." "What do we as human beings owe to one another? And what does it mean to be civilized when civilization is collapsing all around you?"

In THE LAST POLICEMAN, Edgar Award winner and New York Times bestselling author Ben H. Winters, offers readers something they've never seen before: A police procedural set on the brink of an apocalypse. What's the point in solving murders when we're going to die soon, anyway? Hank Palace, a homicide detective in Concord, New Hampshire, asks this question every day. Most people have stopped doing whatever it is they did before the asteroid 2011L47J hovered into view. Stopped selling real estate; stopped working at hospitals; stopped slinging hash or driving cabs or trading high-yield securities. A lot of folks spend their days on bended knee, praying to Jesus or Allah or whoever they think might save them. Others have gone the other way, roaming the streets, enjoying what pleasures they can before the grand finale. Government services are beginning to slip into disarray, crops are left to rot. When it first appeared, 2011L47J was just a speck, somewhere beyond Jupiter's orbit. By mid-October it revealed itself to be seven kilometers in diameter, and on a crash course with the Earth. Now it's March, and sometime in September, 2011L47J will slam into our planet and kill half the population immediately, and most of the rest in the miserable decades that follow. All of humanity now, every person in the world - we're like a bunch of little kids, in deep, deep trouble, just waiting till our dad gets home. So what do I do while I wait? I work. Today, Hank Palace is working the case of Peter Zell, an insurance man who has comitted suicide. To his fellow police officers, it's just one more death-by-hanging in a city that sees a dozen of suicides every week. But Palace senses something wrong. There's something odd about the crime scene. Something off. Palace becomes convinced that it's murder. And he's the only one who cares. What's the difference, Palace? We're all gonna die soon, anyway. As Palace digs deeper, we are drawn into his world. We meet his sister Nico and her screwup boyfriend, Derek, who are trying to beam S.O.S messages into outer space; we meet Erik Littlejohn, a spiritual advisor helping his clients through these difficult times. Palace's investigation plays out under the long shadow of 2011L47J, forcing everyone in the book - and those reading it - to confront hard questions way beyond who-dunn-it. What basis does civilization rest upon? What is life worth? What would any of us do, what would we really do, if our days were numbered?

From the publisher of "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies "comes a new tale of romance, heartbreak, and tentacled mayhem.
"Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters "expands the original text of the beloved Jane Austen novel with all-new scenes of giant lobsters, rampaging octopi, two-headed sea serpents, and other biological monstrosities. As our story opens, the Dashwood sisters are evicted from their childhood home and sent to live on a mysterious island full of savage creatures and dark secrets. While sensible Elinor falls in love with Edward Ferrars, her romantic sister Marianne is courted by both the handsome Willoughby and the hideous man-monster Colonel Brandon. Can the Dashwood sisters triumph over meddlesome matriarchs and unscrupulous rogues to find true love? Or will they fall prey to the tentacles that are forever snapping at their heels? This masterful portrait of Regency England blends Jane Austen's biting social commentary with ultraviolent depictions of sea monsters biting. It's survival of the fittest--and only the swiftest swimmers will find true love

Zahnrader gehoeren zu den am haufigsten verwendeten Maschinen elementen - es gibt wohl nur wenige Maschinen, die keine Zahnrader enthalten. Jeder im Maschinenbau tatige Konstrukteur muss sich deshalb immer wieder mit den Fragen des Entwurfs, der Herstellung und des Betriebsverhaltens von Zahnradern befassen. Berechnung und Konstruktion von Zahnradgetrieben sind heute je doch schon fast zu einer eigenen Wissenschaft geworden; der dauernde Druck, immer billigere, ruhiger laufende, leichtere und leistungsstarkere Maschinen zu bauen, erforderte zwangslaufig auch immer wieder Verbes serungen der Zahnradgetriebe. Infolge dieser dauernden Anstrengungen und der Erfahrungen mit ausgefuhrten Konstruktionen, haben wir heute schon einen verhaltnismassig guten Einblick in den Beanspruchungs mechanismus der Zahnrader und es sind eine ganze Reihe komplizierter Verfahren fur die Zahnradherstellung entwickelt worden. Um die Ent wicklung weiter voranzutreiben, sind verschiedene grosse Firmen dazu ubergegangen, Laufverhalten und Tragfahigkeit in Dauerversuchen zu ermitteln. Zur Entwicklung neuer Getriebetypen werden besondere Ent wicklungsprogramme durchgefuhrt. - So findet man laufend neue Mittel, die Laufruhe und Tragfahigkeit zu steigern und die Herstellung zu ver billigen. Da viele Konstrukteure jedoch nicht die Zeit haben, sich uber alle Fortschritte des Getriebebaues auf dem Laufenden zu halten, kommen sie in Gefahr, mit ihren Konstruktionen - gegenuber den Spitzenleistungen ihrer Branche - ins Hinter treffen zu geraten. Es gibt zwar ein umfangreiches Schrifttum uber alle Zahnrad fragen und doch ist es in vielen Fallen schwierig, die Auskunft zu finden die man gerade benoetigt. Die fur die Praxis des Getriebebaues erforderlichen Angaben in uber sichtlicher, sofort anwendbarer Form zusammenzufassen, ist der Zweck dieses Buches.

Nach der Behandlung der "Riementriebe, Kettentriebe und Kupplungen" in der Fachtagung "Antriebselemente" 1953 wurde diese Veranstaltung im Jahre 1954 U unter den Titel "Zahnrader und Zahnradgetriebe gestellt. Bedeutung und Umfang dieses Stoffes schlossen damit von vornherein iede Hinzunahme von Themen aus anderen Arbeitsgruppen des Fachbereiches aus. In ihrem ersten Teil verzeichnete die Fachtagung 1954 VortrCige aus dem Gebiet der Zahnradfertigung, in einem zweiten Abschnitt Themen uber den Zahnradgetriebe- bau. Aus der Verpflichtung der Fachgemeinschaft, gelegentlich wirtschaftliche Fra- gen auch offentlich zu behandeln, und aus der Erfahrung, daB solche Fragen zu- nehmend das Interesse der Ingenieure finden, wurden den technischen Referaten VortrCige wirtschaftlichen Inhalts uber Gegenwartsprobleme aus der Zahnrader- und Getriebeindustrie zugeordnet. Bei der Ausgestaltung dieser Tagung wurde bewuBt angestrebt, neben deutschen Praktikern und Wissenschaftlern auch hervorragende Vertreter der Wissenschaft und der Industrie des Auslandes zu Wort kommen zu lassen. Damit ist mit dieser Veranstaltung in einem groBeren Umfange eine den nationalen Bereich sprengende Diskussion um wichtige und aktuelle Themen aus der Zahnrad-und Getriebetechnik ermoglicht worden. Die Zahnrader-und Getriebeindustrie hat mit der Tagung "Antriebselemente" 1954 erneut unter Beweis gestellt, daB sie es als eine ihrer Hauptaufgaben ansieht, den Fortschritt der T echnik zu fordern und den Ingenieuren dieienigen Erkenntnisse zu vermitteln, die sie bei ihrer taglichen praktischen Arbeit benotigen. Wie bei der Voriahrs-Veranstaltung wurde damit eine weite Ausstrahlung der gewonnenen Er- kenntnisse und Ergebnisse auf die verschiedenen Verbraucherkreise des Maschinen- baues und der deutschen Industrie bewirkt.
