Marine Genomics English | 2022 | ISBN: 1071623125 | 432 Pages | PDF (True) | 10 MB This detailed volume provides an overview of recent advances in the application of genomic technologies in several domains of marine biology, raising awareness of various DNA- and RNA-based technologies. Genomic methods are essential in identifying previously undetected taxonomic (e.g. DNA barcoding), genetic (e.g. sequencing), and functional (e.g. gene expression, analysis of metabolites) diversity, as shown in the chapters of this book, with sections focusing on next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, bioinformatics in marine genomics research, marine biotechnology, as well as a variety of methods successfully applied in fish. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Legends of the West: The History of the James-Younger Gang by Sean McLachlan English | March 30, 2015 | ISBN: 1511515163 | 68 pages | EPUB | 1.74 Mb *Includes pictures *Includes accounts of the gang's most famous robberies written by Cole Younger *Includes online resources and a bibliography for further reading *Includes a table of contents Space may be the final frontier, but no frontier has ever captured the American imagination like the "Wild West", which still evokes images of dusty cowboys, outlaws, gunfights, gamblers, and barroom brawls over 100 years after the West was settled. A constant fixture in American pop culture, the 19th century American West continues to be vividly and colorful portrayed not just as a place but as a state of mind. In Charles River Editors' Legends of the West series, readers can get caught up to speed on the lives of America's most famous frontier figures in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known. The Wild West has made legends out of many men after their deaths, but like Wild Bill Hickok, Jesse James was a celebrity during his life. However, while Hickok was (mostly) a lawman, Jesse James was and remains the most famous outlaw of the Wild West, with both his life of crime and his death remaining pop culture fixtures. James and his notorious older brother Frank were Confederate bushwhackers in the lawless region of Missouri during the Civil War. Despite being a teenager, James was severely wounded twice during the war, including being shot in the chest, but that would hardly slow him down after the war ended. Eventually James, his brother and their infamous gang became the most hunted outlaws in the country, but Jesse would famously be done in by the brother of his most trusted gang members. After Jesse moved in with the Ford brothers, Bob Ford began secretly negotiating turning in the famous outlaw to Missouri Governor Thomas Crittenden. On April 3, 1882, as the gang prepared for another robber, Jesse was famously shot in the back of the head by Bob Ford as he stood on a chair fixing a painting. While conspiracy theories have continued to linger that somehow James was not killed on that day, the Ford brothers would celebrate their participation in his murder, Bob himself would be murdered a few years later, and Jesse James's legacy had been ensured. Meanwhile, Jesse's most famous associates, the Younger brothers - Cole, Jim, John, and Bob - were also some of the most feared bandits in the country. Rivaled only by Frank and Jesse James, with whom they often rode, they captured the imaginations of a not entirely unsympathetic public. Newspapers gave breathless accounts of their exploits and dime novels made up adventures they never had. In Cole Younger's self-serving and often unreliable autobiography, written shortly after being released from prison, Cole complained, "On the eve of sixty, I come out into the world to find a hundred or more of books, of greater or less pretensions, purporting to be a history of 'The Lives of the Younger Brothers,' but which are all nothing more nor less than a lot of sensational recitals, with which the Younger brothers never had the least association. One publishing house alone is selling sixty varieties of these books, and I venture to say that in the whole lot there could not be found six pages of truth. The stage, too, has its lurid dramas in which we are painted in devilish blackness." Of course, the very nature of their business makes the Younger brothers hard to trace. Historians disagree on what robberies they participated in. One good estimate is that one or more of the Younger brothers, principally the eldest brother Cole, participated in a total of 12 bank robberies, seven train robberies, and four stagecoach robberies. Most of these robberies were done in league with the James brothers and many led to bloodshed, with at least 11 civilians being killed. Legends of the West: The History of the James-Younger Gang traces the history of the outlaws.

Curtis Green, "Learn How To Program And Troubleshoot Ladder Logic" English | 2015 | ISBN: 1508474923 | ASIN: B00T76H1UU | EPUB | pages: 136 | 2.4 mb Automation is at the heart of modern industry. It is predominant in distribution, processing, manufacturing, and assembly. Behind the robots and machinery lies the Programmable Logic Controller or PLC for short. Open any modern control panel and you will find the programmable logic controller has replaced an array of relays, timers and other antiquated devices.The modern PLC dominates the world of industrial automation and Ladder Logic is the de-facto programming language in this obscure land of bits and bytes. This book explores ladder logic related to the RSLogix 5000 platform. Tasks, Programs, Routines, Instructions and Tags are covered, but not in a conventional way. This book takes you through an entire project creation cycle while teaching you the basics. Do you want to create a project using ladder logic, but don't know where to start? This book was written for people who are looking for a better understanding of how to write and troubleshoot ladder logic. In order to understand how the logic works you need to understand some basic components of the language like variables and instructions and how they relate to one another. Upon completion of this book you should be able to open any ladder logic project and quickly discern how many tasks and programs are in it. You should also be able to drill down through the controller organizer and find out how many routines are in a program and what each routines purpose is. You should also be able to identify global tags and program tags as well as know the difference. Knowing the difference between the two allows you to effectively read and write the logic. When it comes to reading Boolean logic you will have it nailed. You will be able to identify AND, NAND, OR & NOR logic and create similar logic. Put simply, you will have the basics down. You will be able to identify and create Alias tags, Arrays, IO modules and more. |
