Book excerpt: Sophie Newton is determined to prove herself to her father, who insists she could never run a successful business. She throws herself into her beachside taco stand, The Sandy Tortilla, and makes it her primary goal to show him that he’s wrong, one burrito at a time. When she loses her summer help, Sophie rushes to find a warm body to help take orders. She finds that body—and what a body!—in Montgomery Winters, a struggling actor from LA. It may not be show business, but Mont figures he can write an order for fish tacos. The money’s dead useful, though he finds it’s the curvy company that really keeps him around. As Sophie and Mont work together, they discover an intense attraction between them. But when Mont's agent calls him about a career-making audition, he decides he must pursue the opportunity, even though he can't get Sophie out of his head. Now, Sophie must choose between chasing after the man she's falling for and the business she's fought so hard to build.

Download or read book Get Close written by Rustin Thompson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-02 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A refreshing new practical approach to documentary filmmaking, Get Close: Lean Team Documentary Filmmaking equips new and veteran filmmakers with the knowhow to make artistically rewarding documentaries for less money, less hassle, and less time. Author and veteran filmmaker Rustin Thompson shows that by stripping away, sidestepping, or reassessing the entrenched industry hurdles-long waits for funding, the unwieldy crews, the unnecessary gear, the gauntlet of film festivals, pitch forums, and distribution networks-filmmakers can move quickly from idea to execution to finished film. Throughout the book, Thompson demystifies and de-clutters the way docs are produced today, illustrating the use of a few simple and accessible tools and techniques while still engaging with the aesthetic possibilities of the medium, its creative opportunities and its satisfying rewards of giving back to the world. Using the essential lessons in Get Close, filmmakers will learn to eliminate physical and financial barriers between themselves and their subject matter, ultimately leading them to tell more artful, illuminating stories and find the joy in documentary filmmaking.

Download or read book Populations in a Seasonal Environment. (MPB-5) written by Stephen D. Fretwell and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most organisms live in a seasonal environment. During their life cycles, some species face seasons of cold and heat, aridity and abundant rainfall, migration and stable residence, breeding and nonbreeding. Populations grow and decline as supplies of materials essential to their survival wax and wane. Such qualitative truths as these flow obviously from field observations. In this original monograph, Stephen Fretwell analyzes the highly complex interaction between a population and a regularly varying environment in an attempt to define and measure seasonality as a critical parameter in the general theory of population regulation. Concerned primarily with the size and the habitat distribution of populations, Professor Fretwell develops simple models that, when applied to specific populations, usually of birds, demonstrate the effect of seasonal variations on the regulation of populations. He maintains that seasonality, as a concept, is essential to a full understanding of environmental interaction. During the course of his exposition, the author offers several new hypotheses, including theories affecting the breeding, numbers, distribution, and diversity of wintering birds, and a theory affecting the body size of sparrows.

Download or read book Bees and Beekeeping in the United Arab Emirates written by Denis L. Anderson, Ihsan Abu Alrub and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2024-05-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bees and Beekeeping in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) marks the first publication in the UAE of a book focusing on bees, honey bees, and beekeeping. Wild and managed bees are known as "keystone species" because of their significance as pollinators of flowering plants in nature and agriculture, but despite this, little is known about bees in the UAE. This book is designed to captivate a broad audience, blending general knowledge about the diversity, significance, and conservation of bees with specific insights into challenges unique to honey bees (Apis mellifera) in the UAE. Key topics include sustainable beekeeping practices, managing hives in hot, arid environments, and identifying and addressing major pests and diseases. Special attention is given to the wild dwarf honey bee (Apis florea), a prevalent species in the UAE. While not a basic guide to beekeeping, this book offers valuable information for both novice and experienced beekeepers.
