Deborah Stark is a newscaster with ambition to spare and a take-no-prisoners attitude when it comes to love. Her latest whirlwind affair with the darkly sexy Marcus ends with D. never expecting to see him again. Then her mother dies right before Thanksgiving and Marcus shows up on the doorstep of D.'s childhood home in New Jersey--and the ice around her heart cracks a little. But for D., work comes first. She's deep into a story about corruption throughout the highest levels of the company that owns her Philadelphia television station, and not even the hint of true love can distract her. Marcus has secrets--about the mysterious Foundation he works for, about his ability to shape-shift--secrets D. isn't ready to hear. But when D. realizes that Marcus is too aware of what she's investigating to be an innocent bystander, she knows she must accept his truths. For only with Marcus's help will D. survive long enough to expose corruption . . . and claim love.

This open access textbook takes the reader step-by-step through the concepts of mechanics in a clear and detailed manner. Mechanics is considered to be the core of physics, where a deep understanding of the concepts is essential in understanding all branches of physics. Many proofs and examples are included to help the reader grasp the fundamentals fully, paving the way to deal with more advanced topics. After solving all of the examples, the reader will have gained a solid foundation in mechanics and the skills to apply the concepts in a variety of situations. The book is useful for undergraduate students majoring in physics and other science and engineering disciplines. It can also be used as a reference for more advanced levels.

Zachariah is a space traveller in a frozen state, riding on Halley’s comet. When the comet crashes to Earth in Antarctica, he is rescued by an explorer and taken to Melbourne, Australia. In Melbourne Zachariah meets and befriends Mary and Rachel. The women work out that Zachariah is human, but not of this earth. Hailing him as some kind of supreme extraterrestrial being, they form a cult, with Zachariah as the reluctant leader. Meanwhile Bart, a soldier from Earth, pursues Zachariah through a wormhole. Finding him and his coalition, he also finds a billion people who are in a frozen state and are being looked after by Zachariah’s earthbound coalition. These frozen people are known as The Arii, and are searching the universe for a planet to call home. But The Arii are being pursued by an invasive infection known as the plasmoencephalapod. Frozen and defenseless, they must rely on Zachariah’s cult-like coalition to defend them. Will these space travelers succeed in escaping the plasmoencephalapod and finding a new home amongst the stars? Find out in the dramatic conclusion of The Arii.

A clear and easy to follow textbook including material on forces, machines, motion, properties of matter, electronics and energy, problem-solving investigations and practice in experimental design.

"Body Physics was designed to meet the objectives of a one-term high school or freshman level course in physical science, typically designed to provide non-science majors and undeclared students with exposure to the most basic principles in physics while fulfilling a science-with-lab core requirement. The content level is aimed at students taking their first college science course, whether or not they are planning to major in science. However, with minor supplementation by other resources, such as OpenStax College Physics, this textbook could easily be used as the primary resource in 200-level introductory courses. Chapters that may be more appropriate for physics courses than for general science courses are noted with an asterisk symbol (*). Of course this textbook could be used to supplement other primary resources in any physics course covering mechanics and thermodynamics"--Textbook Web page.

Dispersed multiphase flows are frequently found in nature and have diverse geophysical, environmental, industrial, and energy applications. This book targets a beginning graduate student looking to learn about the physical processes that govern these flows, going from the fundamentals to the state of the art, with many exercises included.
