Sorghum diseases.......2000-08-11
Compendium of Sorghum Diseases explains in details diseases of different species and cultivars of sorghum natives from many places around the world, what is very important due to it makes the information not only accessible but applicable for cultivators and researchers everywhere. Usually it metions the vulgar name of the disease making easier its searching. And last but not least, its pictures are so illustratives that allows make a comparison with other simptoms and identify one possible pathogen.

Book Description
Semiconductor Quantum Well Intermixing is an international collection of research results dealing with several aspects of the diffused quantum well (DFQW), ranging from Physics to materials and device applications. The material covered is the basic interdiffusion mechanisms of both cation and anion groups as well as the properties of band structure modifiations. Its comprehensive coverage of growth and pos-growth processing technologies along with its presentation of the various interesting and advanced features of the DFQW materials make this book an essential reference to the study of QW layer intermixing.
Book Description
If you get a bang out of the flash and thud of an explosion and are intrigued by soft munitions, propellants and weapons, why not build your own bazooka? Anthony Lewis takes you through the process, from constructing the cartridge, barrel, grip and sights to mixing the propellant and igniter to assembling, loading and test-firing. For information purposes only.

review.......2007-08-24
good educational product, it enhanced my general culture, dont try to build one of these though.
POTATO BLASTER.......2007-03-09
This is a shoulder mounted potato tennis ball cannon nothing more not anything involving rocket propulsion just a cannon for tennis balls
Don't be fooled by the title
A neet toy but should have been more honest in the title
No Info On Destroying Targets.......2005-07-03
I like the book. Its very simple to understand and has alot of good basics in it. But it is not a handbook on making a weapon for taking out Osama's technicals or anything like that. Just a recreational tennisball launcher- good for the 4th of July though.
Need heavy firepower.......2000-08-30
This book has a really cool name, but I already know how to make tennis ball launchers, besides that won't cut in Tokyo, we need something really big to take out that giant lizard that always comes around and stomps on our city!
Good book, good weapon.......1999-05-16
The book was completely helpful in teaching me how to build an effective tennisball bazooka. In other books I've read on homemade "tennisball launchers" the tennisballs on go so far, with this bazooka I can't even find my tennisballs.

Book Description
This text evolved from a new curriculum in scientific computing that was developed to teach undergraduate science and engineering majors how to use high-performance computing systems (supercomputers) in scientific and engineering applications.
Designed for undergraduates, An Introduction to High-Performance Scientific Computing assumes a basic knowledge of numerical computation and proficiency in Fortran or C programming and can be used in any science, computer science, applied mathematics, or engineering department or by practicing scientists and engineers, especially those associated with one of the national laboratories or supercomputer centers.
The authors begin with a survey of scientific computing and then provide a review of background (numerical analysis, IEEE arithmetic, Unix, Fortran) and tools (elements of MATLAB, IDL, AVS). Next, full coverage is given to scientific visualization and to the architectures (scientific workstations and vector and parallel supercomputers) and performance evaluation needed to solve large-scale problems. The concluding section on applications includes three problems (molecular dynamics, advection, and computerized tomography) that illustrate the challenge of solving problems on a variety of computer architectures as well as the suitability of a particular architecture to solving a particular problem.
Finally, since this can only be a hands-on course with extensive programming and experimentation with a variety of architectures and programming paradigms, the authors have provided a laboratory manual and supporting software via anonymous ftp.

Book Description
The environment is "in." Global warming. Ozone depletion. Toxic waste. Acid rain. Concern that we are sinking ever deeper into "environmental debt" has sown the seeds of a growing U.S. Green Movement, transplanted from Europe. Unfortunately, all of the current talk and activity do not add up to a coherent environmental strategy on the part of government, industry, and environmental organizations. Here is the first book to explain why only a preventive environmental strategy can work, because growing population, consumption, and industrialization cripple current, rather haphazard, remedial efforts. Authored by two leading experts, this book shows how our society can make more with less, be more competitive and less polluting, while maintaining our standard of living by reducing and eventually eliminating the production of wastes and pollutants from industry, commerce, homes, farms, institutions.… This may seem far-fetched, but be prepared to discover in these pages that there can be a middle ground between ecology and economy—and that you can help achieve it. You'll find data and examples—facts few have had access to before—that any person can use, from engineers in industry to office workers to activists. Every concerned citizen will also want to consider the authors' innovative suggestions for taxing wastes and using the proceeds to help companies and communities switch to new industrial processes. Also, you should evaluate their proposals to require meaningful waste and toxicity information on product labels, to make bans on chemicals and products a more credible and available corrective measure, and to secure permanent, high-level government support for pollution prevention. But, above all, this book is a self-help book for all whose home is Earth. An ounce of pollution prevention that's worth a pound of environmental cure. A way for concerned individuals to become agents for change in the marketplace, the workplace, and the voting place. Read on.
