Excerpt from The Flamingo's Nest: A Honolulu Story Most of the local color in this story is photo graphic. But the Crossroads and Cosmos Clubs do not exist; the X Sugar Company is fiction, not fact; and liberties have been taken with the territorial Capitol - some features altered, others added free gratis. Nor can the story be taken as a brief in favor of the hero's rather eccentric business methods. All characters and incidents are fictitious, and no statement refers to any person or company.

Their natural enemies largely determine the population size and dynamic behavior of many plant-eating insects. Any reduction in enemy number can result in an insect outbreak. Applied biological control is thus one strategy for restoring functional biodiversity in many agroecosystems. Predators and Parasitoids addresses the role of natural enemies i

Excerpt from Kelea: The Surf-Rider, a Romance of Pagan Hawaii She was brought up in the chief's enclosure, which contained his large grass house and the smaller houses of his women and servants. These habitations stood on an eminence about a mile and a half from what is now the harbor of Honolulu. A picturesque ravine bounded the enclosure on the south, and even to-day defies the transforming hand of civilization, the one spot near the modern city that has marks of its primitive beauty and simplicity. Hedges of prickly pear in blossom still line the zig-zag path from the plateau above. A Short turn leads under a mass of rock, Titan piled, dark in the shadows and covered with trailing vines. It is the Sweetest dell in all the region. Wild roses dispute possession of the soil with the brilliant lantana. Broad leaves wave over bunches of ripe bananas. Two grass houses, gray with age, stand on either side of a stream that rushes noisily over the stones. A solitary palm, rooted in the rocks, sentinels a pool a little higher up the stream; it is the last remnant of a grove which hung over sparkling Kapena, a bathing place and reservoir of prolific springs on the heights.

This book is devoted to Agroecological Crop Protection, which is the declension of the principles of agroecology to crop protection. It presents the concepts of this innovative approach, case studies and lessons and generic keys for agroecological transition. The book is intended for a wide audience, including scientists, experimenters, teachers, farmers, students. It represents a new tool, proposing concrete keys of action on the basis of feedbacks validated scientifically. Beyond the examples presented, it is therefore of general scope and proposes recommendations for all temperate and tropical cropping systems. It contributes to the training and teaching modules in this field and it is an updated information support for professionals and a teaching aid for students (agronomy, crop protection, biodiversity management, agroecology).

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • "A dazzling journey across the sciences and humanities in search of deep laws to unite them." —The Wall Street Journal One of our greatest scientists—and the winner of two Pulitzer Prizes for On Human Nature and The Ants—gives us a work of visionary importance that may be the crowning achievement of his career. In Consilience (a word that originally meant "jumping together"), Edward O. Wilson renews the Enlightenment's search for a unified theory of knowledge in disciplines that range from physics to biology, the social sciences and the humanities. Using the natural sciences as his model, Wilson forges dramatic links between fields. He explores the chemistry of the mind and the genetic bases of culture. He postulates the biological principles underlying works of art from cave-drawings to Lolita. Presenting the latest findings in prose of wonderful clarity and oratorical eloquence, and synthesizing it into a dazzling whole, Consilience is science in the path-clearing traditions of Newton, Einstein, and Richard Feynman.

The Bad Bug Book 2nd Edition, released in 2012, provides current information about the major known agents that cause foodborne illness.Each chapter in this book is about a pathogen—a bacterium, virus, or parasite—or a natural toxin that can contaminate food and cause illness. The book contains scientific and technical information about the major pathogens that cause these kinds of illnesses.A separate “consumer box” in each chapter provides non-technical information, in everyday language. The boxes describe plainly what can make you sick and, more important, how to prevent it.The information provided in this handbook is abbreviated and general in nature, and is intended for practical use. It is not intended to be a comprehensive scientific or clinical reference.The Bad Bug Book is published by the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN) of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Insects affect the health and well-being of humans every day, everywhere, so the entomology departments that study them make a crucial contribution to many aspects of life. Indeed, agricultural success in the United States and other countries depends upon the work of entomology departments within the land grant system at universities across the nation.Entomology at the Land Grant University is a thorough look at how entomology departments have adapted to shifting demographics, changes in land use patterns, environmental issues, and advances in the life sciences. It also highlights the leadership of entomologists in their multifaceted roles as researchers, teachers, and consultants.With world-renowned contributors from both academia and industry, this volume is the culmination of a series of mini-symposia celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Department of Entomology at Texas A&M University. The centenary was a time to reflect on past accomplishments and to plan for future challenges, spotlighting the academic, scientific, economic, and social importance of entomology. The result is a broad-brushed picture of a discipline that at its best represents the highest virtues of fundamental and applied science, with topics such as:- fulfilling the land grant university mission- roles of entomology departments- the function of the extension service- the global reach of entomological research- civic education in insect management- genetic engineering- future innovations in pest management and insecticide designNot just for entomologists, this insightful look into the workings of a university department within the context of a rapidly changing scientific, social, and economic climate will appeal to anyone associated with a land grant university, extension or regulatory agency, or related industry.
