Book excerpt: Celebrated artist and lead character designer of Brave, Ratatouille, and Despicable Me, Carter Goodrich, shows that sometimes, even the prickliest people—or the crankiest cacti—need a little love. Hank is the prickliest cactus in the entire world. He sits in a pot in a window that faces the empty desert, which is just how he likes it. So, when all manner of creatures—from tumbleweed to lizard to owl—come to disturb his peace, Hank is annoyed. He doesn’t like noise, he doesn’t like rowdiness, and definitely does not like hugs. But the thing is, no one is offering one. Who would want to hug a plant so mean? Hank is beginning to discover that being alone can be, well, lonely. So he comes up with a plan to get the one thing he thought he would never need: a hug from a friend.

Download or read book Wolf Canyon written by Donna Menchen and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2021-12-01 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wolf Canyon is one story with two parallel viewpoints. Thirteen-year-old Robbie for the boys while Cactus, the desert cat, gives us his side of things. Budge wants no part of plans to go into Wolf Canyon—at night in a bad storm—looking for a lost cave, an ancient family treasure, and a legendary gold Aztec mask. “It has to be tonight,” Robbie says, “or wait till next summer vacation.” With the help of a coyote’s howl and a shaft of moonlight through the “Eyes of Death,” they find the cave and make some shocking discoveries. They can’t identify a terrible odor that fills the cave. From one of the passageways, they suddenly hear howl, yowl, screech, growl, then silence. What is it? A werewolf, a werecat, or...? It sends them all flying back out into the night. The animals, as they react to what is happening and each other, add a lot to the mystery and humor of the story.

Download or read book Struts written by James Turner and published by Sams Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to build applications with Jakarta Struts, the most popular JSP development framework. "Struts Kick Start" is a "hands-on" book filled with sample applications and code snippets you can reuse, and in-depth coverage of new features in Struts 1.1. If you are looking for a practical book that "shows you how to do it," then Struts Kick Start is for you. Plus, it's the first Struts book with detailed examples of the major Struts tags. The book begins with a discussion of Struts and its Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture. The authors' then demonstrate Struts' power through the development of a non-trivial sample application - covering all the Struts components in a "how to use them" approach. You'll also see the Struts Tag Library in action - use tags for HTML, javabeans, logical operations and more. You'll learn to use Struts with JBoss for EJB's, with Apache Axis to publish and use Web Services, and with JUnit for testing and debugging. The authors work with the latest Struts 1.1 features including DynaForms, Tiles and the Validator. The book includes a CD-ROM containing the tools discussed in the book: Struts 1.1 beta 2, Java 2 Standard Edition, JBoss 3.0.3, MySQL 3.23, XDoclet, Torque, Tomcat, Ant, Axis, Cactus, and JUnit. Plus, it comes with an electronic, fully searchable version of the book. From the Inside Cover: Thoroughly covers the essential features of Struts in a clear and readable style. "Struts Kick Start" is a solid starting point for learning how to develop web applications using Struts. The authors start you off by reviewing the foundational technologies on which Struts is based, and immediately get into the sorts of practical "how to" information and examples that get you up to speed quickly. Notable features that I really appreciated include the coverage on integration with other technologies (such as EJBs and web services), using Ant to set up your development environment, and the fact that the software goodies you need are available on the included CD. Struts does not live in a vacuum -- it is one of the tools in the developer's toolkit, so knowing how it works with other technologies is very useful. Of particular importance is the coverage on testing your web application as you build and maintain it. Developing a solid testing methodology, and a substantial suite of tests (to protect yourself against regressions), is critically important to a rapid development cycle that still needs to produce high quality applications. Coverage of testing, though, tends to be minimal in many books about programming technologies. James and Kevin provide specific advice on how to use the JUnit and Cactus testing frameworks with your Struts based applications. "Struts Kick Start" is a good resource for learning about Struts, and it will help you get up to speed quickly. - "Craig McClanahan, Creator of Struts"
Book Synopsis The Adventures of Chipper, The Dog of Dogdom by : Richard Henry Carlson
Download or read book The Adventures of Chipper, The Dog of Dogdom written by Richard Henry Carlson and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2014-03-06 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Owners of beloved dogs will universally agree that, sometimes, it seems their pet understands everything that is being said around them. In this fantasy, Chipper provides some answers to the question: What adventures might a dog have if he could actually read words and understand what is being said by those nearby? Sit down and shake a paw with this special canine as he grows from a clumsy pup to a crime-stopping member of the local police force. Along the way, he learns to read. He is dog-napped, injured and almost euthanized. He becomes a dog who counsels other dogs…and he uses a special computer to tell the story of his adventures. Join Mary Anne and Chipper, together with their good friend Monty and his dog, Maggie, as they create a training school for dogs – The Learning Lab – whose results amaze and mystify the owners of the dogs in attendance. But these undertakings can’t even compare with the superlative life-lessons Mary Anne and Chipper learn from Mom and Dad and Mr. Robb, their wise and kindly neighbor. This quirky canine is sure to find his way into your heart. He may not be able to speak, but Chipper’s waggy-tailed escapades will keep you wondering, “…and what else can this dog do?”
Book Synopsis A Dozen Deepest Wishes by : Katya Romanoff
Download or read book A Dozen Deepest Wishes written by Katya Romanoff and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making comparison is in human nature. We constantly compare ourselves and others to somebody like ourselves-whether we want to or not. Poets and artists take this a step further and draw parallels between people and other beings or objects, such as animals or even inanimate objects. Or we compare the objects to people, attributing human qualities to them. But in the big scheme of things, this is not important: comparisons could really work both ways. Let's say you want to compare yourself with a flower, so what flower would you be? On the other hand, if you are looking closely at a forget-me-not, for example, what type of person do you imagine? What really prompted me to write this poem was my long-term fascination with flowers. Contemplation of their amazing lines and shapes led to reflections on their imaginable characters and fates. What occupation or pursuit would each flower have? What lifestyle would it choose? How would it treat others around him? In short, what would happen if flowers lived by the same rules as humans? But that's not all. Each one of us wishes for something. It happens sometimes that our dreams and aspirations become the main drive in our lives. They prompt us to action and make us who we are. Perhaps that's how it should be. Only we as humans should be responsible for our wishes and for the effect they may have on us and others if they were to come true. It goes without saying-wishing along is not enough. We must actually do something to turn our wishes into reality. And if you are sure that your wishes are good and philanthropic, then go for it! The whole universe will be on your side. That's what this poem is about, and I really hope it will resonate in your heart.

Book excerpt: Warmones, hormones, and conscience compete for the souls of young pilots in the VietNam war. An air combat tale of whimsical intelligence and vivid realism. Its 1967 in DaNang, Vietnam, as new pilot Steve Mylder reports for duty to his fighter squadron and meets fellow pilot Avery Aughton. Avery is cocky, unbearably patriotic, and outrageously successful with women -- everything Steve is not! Yet they become friends as they drink together at the DOOM Club bar and learn the ropes of air combat together. As they dogfight in the air, their mutual friend Sub-Lieutenant Sam the Collie -- who thinks hes a fighter pilot too -- parallels their war by dogfighting on the ground against his rival Charlie, a junkyard mutt. Steve, unenthusiastic about the war, fights for his life in the skies over North Vietnam but battles for his soul against the Red Baron of his nightmares. Avery -- master of the art of combat seduction -- acquires a measure of humility as he thunders fifty feet over a North Vietnamese beach, looks down and locks eyes with an improbable bikini-clad woman and falls into hopeless love. Both pilots seem on-track to survive their tours of duty when Avery is shot down and Steve has to face himself -- balancing imagination against reality -- in the aftermath of a rescue attempt. In Counters, former air force pilot Tony Taylor weaves whimsical humor and authentic details of air combat into a brooding yet fanciful tapestry, illuminating the hormones and warmones that impel young men to war and stupidity.
