Description:

The Great White sharks off Surf Shore are the biggest, most dangerous in the world. This season, there are more than ever - aggressive and territorial - driven from surrounding hunting grounds by invading orcas.

Great Whites have already attacked two boats. Six people have been killed.

Now the orcas have followed the sharks to Surf Shore.

Dr. Pete Nichols, Killer Whale specialist, senses the tempest. Shark-expert, Dr. Lauren Palmer believes she can stop it. For Kate Foster, it is theater - a spectacle to be exploited.

But it will soon be life and death for them all.

Because in a war of alpha-killers, humans are nothing but prey.

Description:

In the prehistoric parts of the planet, ancient ecosystems endure - lost worlds dominated by razor-toothed, flesh-eating dragons.

The Komodo monitor - gluttonous, ravenous, cannibalistic - top predator on an isolated cluster of tropical islands.

When the ragged group of castaways stagger ashore, they think they are saved.

Instead they find themselves prey.

But they are not alone in this lost world - and dragons are not the only predators.

Reptilian savagery gives way to human nature - primal instinct becomes betrayal and murder - and they will all soon learn that sins of the past are never truly buried.

But the lost world knows no judgment - and survival knows no sin.

The dragons wait for them all.

And they're hungry

Description:

If you are a small business owner or a hopeful Internet entrepreneur, then you know you need a professional website.

The first challenge is, how do you build that website without needing to learn how to do computer programming or having to sell your first-born to get a website built for you?

The second challenge is, how do you get a professionally-designed and beautiful website built that won't cost you mega-bucks per month to maintain?

Because let's face it, it is hard to justify the high costs of building an elaborate website, when you are not yet sure a website will be a good investment of your time and money.

The good news is that there is a better - and much less expensive - way to get a beautiful website made, with just a few clicks of your mouse.

WordPress started in 2003, with the goal of providing ordinary people a simple way to build a website for free. Today, WordPress is being used on millions of websites, including those of many Fortune 500 companies.

With over 2,000 Themes currently available, it is very easy to change the appearance of a website. With just the click of a mouse button you can change the look, feel and layout of your entire website without affecting the content. What used to take days to get looking right, now takes only minutes.

WordPress Plugins add functionality to a website - what you want the website to do for you or your visitors. With over 43,000 Plugins available, you will find that you can make your website do a lot of specialized tasks for you or your visitors. And with the power of plugins, you can add functionality to your website - track users and what they do, take online orders, manage content in new and unique ways - and more. Again, all with the click of a mouse button.

Now a #1 Amazon Best Seller, this popular, up-to-date, step-by-step guide by expert Sarah McHarry will walk you through the essential first steps to building your own website or blog using WordPress.

Description:

Studying engineering, whether it is mechanical, electrical or civil relies heavily on an understanding of mathematics. This new textbook clearly demonstrates the relevance of mathematical principles and shows how to apply them to solve real-life engineering problems.
It deliberately starts at an elementary level so that students who are starting from a low knowledge base will be able to quickly get up to the level required. Students who have not studied mathematics for some time will find this an excellent refresher.
Each chapter starts with the basics before gently increasing in complexity. A full outline of essential definitions, formulae, laws and procedures are introduced before real world situations, practicals and problem solving demonstrate how the theory is applied.
Focusing on learning through practice, it contains examples, supported by 1,600 worked problems and 3,000 further problems contained within exercises throughout the text. In addition, 34 revision tests are included at regular intervals.
An interactive companion website is also provided containing 2,750 further problems with worked solutions and instructor materials

Description:

We've come a long way since the days of flashing banner ads and scrolling news tickers. Today, the stunning motion design of iOS and Android dramatically improves a user's experience - instead of detracting from it. The best sites and apps of today leverage animation to improve the feel and intuitiveness of their interfaces. Sites without animation are starting to feel antiquated. This book provides you with a technical foundation to implement animation in a way that's both visually stunning and programmatically maintainable. Throughout, we consider the balance between enriching a page with motion design while avoiding unnecessary flourishes
Readers will learn how to design loading sequences that ensure users stay fully engaged instead of tuning out, how to leverage simple physics principles to make apps respond naturally to users' input (just like motion behaves in the real world), how to exploit CSS transforms to create rich depth in animations, and how to fully leverage JavaScript animation libraries like Velocity.js to streamline animation programming. From animation performance to theory, we cover everything needed to become a professional web animator. Whether you're a novice or professional web developer, this book is for everyone.
Why is all of this so important? Why is it worth your time to become a professional motion designer? For the same reason that designers spend hours perfecting their pages' font and color combinations, motion designers perfect their animations' transition and easing combinations: Refined products feel superior. They leave users whispering to themselves, "Wow, this is cool", right before they turn to a friend and exclaim, "You gotta try this."
