    Product Description

    This is a NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A355733. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: Motivated by the desire to put a free electron laser (FEL) weapon on a ship, the FEL and the related process of Compton backscattering are studied. The theme of the majority of this work is the interaction of the Gaussian optical mode with a beam of relativistic electrons. Classical FEL theory is reviewed in Chapter II. Simulations based on the classical theory are used in Chapter III to study a proposed I kW (kilowatt) infrared FEL. In Chapter IV, simulation is used to study the problem of electron beam/optical mode overlap in an ultraviolet (UV) FEL. A new concept, the FEL with a short Rayleigh length, is sttidied in Chapter V. The idea is tested on the UV FEL, then used to design and simulate a megawatt-class FEL for ship self-defense. An analytical calculation of the Compton backscattering of laser light is performed in Chapter VI. A quantum electrodynamics (QED) formalism is used to find the spectrum and angular distribution of photons scattertd out of a Gaussian optical mode by relativistic electrons.

          Book Description

          This is the 7th edition of the very popular Hidden Places of The Lake District and Cumbria. The cover, page layouts and maps in this edition have been completely redesigned to produce a very attractive and easy-to-use travel guide covering the Lake District and Cumbria. The book is printed in full color and includes detailed directional maps and eye catching photographs. It is also packed with places of interest, places to stay and places to eat and drink full details of which are contained in a handy separate section. The Lake District is renowned for its impressive mountain scenery but it also offers visitors green rolling hills, fast flowing rivers, deep lush forests and of course the enchanting and languid lakes. The delightful county of Cumbria in which the Lake District resides is England's second largest county, but surprisingly has a relatively small population of only 490,000 people which is only slightly more numerous than the city of Leeds. Apart from the Lake District, visitors to Cumbria will also find gentle moorland, craggy coastal headlands and scattered woodlands as well as a fascinating history and cultural heritage.

          The cover of the new edition incorporates an eye-catching photograph of Ullswater near Mossdale Bay in the Lake District.

          2 out of 5 stars Too commercial; too abbreviated.......2007-07-13

          I have purchased 5 books to help me with an upcoming trip to the Lake District and this is the one book I would have passed on. The book has commercial advertisements which detract from the book. Also, the restaurant and hotel recoommendations are sparce. Skip this book and buy Rough Guide instead.

          1 out of 5 stars Don't Waste Your Money.......2006-07-24

          Don't be fooled by this so-called "book" -- one quarter of the space is taken up with cleverly-distinquished ads for guest houses and the like. If you didn't read the fine print, you might be fooled into thinking that the author was recommending these places, but they paid to be there.

          The rest of the text is pretty basic, and not very detailed. The Rough Guide to the Lakes District is MUCH, MUCH better -- better researched, more detailed, and more objective.

          Book Description

          The Hidden Places Series is a collection of easy to use travel guides covering the British Isles through both national and regional titles. These guides are noted for their wealth of interesting geographical and historical information and by their concentration on the more secluded and less well-known visitor attractions and places to eat and stay, and, of course, covering the more established places of interest.

          Each place can be easily located by reference to simple directions and cross-referencing colored regional maps. Each book contains a comprehensive index of cities, towns and villages, along with a detailed index of places to stay, eat, drink and shop. Attractive line drawings of each place, addresses and telephone numbers make these Hidden Guides a must when traveling throughout the British Isles.

          I've had this book a short time and looked through it several times. I was born in England and know the lakes well, so this was interesting. If you are looking for you first lakes book then look at the Berlitz or one of the other more traditional guides otherwise you may miss something.

          If you plan to drink your way around the lakes, this may well be a great book.

By example the writer gives advise in: how to feed, how to raise and train a puppy, how to deal with minor illnesses. And as all this is tried and proven to work with her dogs, it will be valuable advise for everyone with a Saluki moving into their home. Especially nice is the quantity of black and white photos, which show famous champions. The Standart of the Saluki is written and explained in detail. A very good read!

                                Product Description

                                This report was created for global strategic planners who cannot be content with traditional methods of segmenting world markets. With the advent of a “borderless world”, cities become a more important criteria in prioritizing markets, as opposed to regions, continents, or countries. This report covers the top 2000 cities in over 200 countries. It does so by reporting the estimated market size (in terms of latent demand) for each major city of the world. It then ranks these cities and reports them in terms of their size as a percent of the country where they are located, their geographic region (e.g. Africa, Asia, Europe, Middle East, North America, Latin America), and the total world market. In performing various economic analyses for its clients, I have been occasionally asked to investigate the market potential for various products and services across cities. The purpose of the studies is to understand the density of demand within a country and the extent to which a city might be used as a point of distribution within its region. From an economic perspective, however, a city does not represent a population within rigid geographical boundaries. To an economist or strategic planner, a city represents an area of dominant influence over markets in adjacent areas. This influence varies from one industry to another, but also from one period of time to another. In what follows, I summarize the economic potential for the world\'s major cities for "ambient ready pasta" for the year 2007. The goal of this report is to report my findings on the real economic potential, or what an economist calls the latent demand, represented by a city when defined as an area of dominant influence. The reader needs to realize that latent demand may or may not represent real sales. For many items, latent demand is clearly observable in sales, as in the case for food or housing items. Consider, however, the category "satellite launch vehicles". Clearly, there are no launch pads in most cities of the world. However, the core benefit of the vehicles (e.g. telecommunications, etc.) is "consumed" by residents or industries within the world\'s cities. Without certain cities, in other words, the market for satellite launch vehicles would be lower for the world in general. One needs to allocate, therefore, a portion of the worldwide economic demand for launch vehicles to both regions and cities. This report takes the broader definition and considers, therefore, a city as a part of the global market.

                                              In Mayan Drifter Juan Felipe Herrera journeys to the Maya Lowlands of Chiapas on a quest for his Indio heritage and a vision of the multicultured identity emerging in America. He attempts to shed the trappings and privileges of his life in California in order to reduce his distance from the dispersed and shrinking Mayan population. In Mexico, Herrera seeks a deeper understanding of his homeland's history, its exploitation, and looks to realize his own place in relation to the struggle of his people.

                                              Like the Mayan drifter, the text crosses and extends boundaries. In a variety of narrative voices, poems, and a play, across time, Herrera recounts how the Maya have been invaded by the Spanish, the government, the multinational corporations of the petrochemical industry, and anthropologists. The Maya survive and resist as their numbers dwindle and the forces that mount against them become more powerful.

                                              Inspired by the Maya's resilience, Herrera envisions the disappearance of borders and evokes a fluid American self that needs no fixed identity or location.
                                              Mayan Drifter: Chicano Poet in the Lowlands of America.
