Stories of Birds
Stories of Birds by Lenore Elizabeth Mulets
"When our babe he goeth walking in his garden
Around his tinkling feet the sunbeams play;
The posies they are good to him
And bow them as they should to him
As he fareth upon his kingly way:
The birdlings of the wood to him
Make music, gentle music, all-day
When our babe he goeth walking in his garden."
—Eugene Field.

Fasting is Protection
The title of this book is deriving from this Hadith “Fasting is for me” Says Allah Almighty “and I give reward accordingly, for man gives up food, sex, and drink for My Sake. Fasting is Protection. Whoever fasts rejoice twice the first time on breaking the fast and the second on meeting the Lord. “The smell of the mouth of the fasting person is considered by Allah to be better than the fragrance of musk”.

THE MYSTERY OF THE LOCKS
THE MYSTERY OF THE LOCKS - THE TOWN OF DARK NIGHTS.
DAVY'S BEND a river town, a failing town, and an old town, on a dark night, with a misty rain falling, and the stars hiding from the dangerous streets and walk of the failing town down by the sluggish river which seems to be hurrying away from it, too, like its institutions and its people, and as the light of the wretched day that has just closed hurried away from it a few hours since.
The darkness is so intense that the people who look out of their windows are oppressed from staring at nothing, for the shadows are obliterated, and for all, they know there may be great caverns in the streets, filled with water from the rising river, and vagabond debris on their front steps.
It occurs to one of them who opens the blind to his window a moment and looks out (and who notices incidentally that the rays from his lamp seem afraid to venture far from the casement) that a hard crust will form somewhere above the town, up where there is light for the living, and turn the people of Davy's Bend into rocks as solid as those thousands of feet below, which thought affects him so much that he closes his blinds and shutters tighter than before, determined that his rooms shall become caves.

Enzymes in Fruit and Vegetable Processing
Fruits and vegetables are consumed as fresh or processed into different types of products. Some of the naturally occurring enzymes in fruits and vegetables have undesirable effects on product quality, and therefore enzyme inactivation is required during fruit and vegetable processing in order to increase the product shelf-life. Commercial enzyme preparations are also used as processing aids in fruit and vegetable processing to improve the process efficiency and product quality because enzymes show activity on specific substrates under mild processing conditions. Therefore, there has been a striking growth in the enzyme market for the fruit and vegetable industry.

Heroes of Africa
TRUE STORIES OF THE INTREPID BRAVERY AND STIRRING ADVENTURES OF THE PIONEERS, EXPLORERS, AND FOUNDERS OF MODERN AFRICA. The exploration of Heroes of Africa, begun by Greece and Rome, has been carried on also by Moslem Arabs, by the Portuguese, the Dutch, and later by the French and Germans, as well as by ourselves.
It seems as if unknown Africa would shortly be reduced to a small area, and the long list of explorers and discoverers must soon be completed ; but there is yet room in the world for men of enterprise who will go forth to keep order among men and the lower animals, to organise a higher civilisation, to combat diseases, and teach the natives the truths of science and religion.

2007 World Cup - A Catalyst Toward Caribbean Identity Construction
It was paramount for the English-speaking Caribbean to host a successful Cricket 2007 World Cup and field an outstanding West Indian cricket team for the international sporting mega-event. For CARICOM and the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB), there were two principle goals – first, to exhibit regional Caribbean identity, and second, to be triumphant under the leadership of the West Indian cricket team’s captain, Trinidadian Brian Lara.
Identities are multifaceted and intricate, negotiated and renegotiated, based on a history of economic, political and cultural forces. This thesis interrogates Caribbean identity through textual analysis of the broadcast of the opening ceremony and regional newspaper coverage of the spectacle as well as ensuing events that were held in eight of the Caribbean countries from 11 March to 28 April 2007. The thesis questions whether this mega-event served as a catalyst toward Caribbean identity construction.

Cognitive Psychology
Book structure of Cognitive Psychology: The chapters in this book are organized in five parts. The first four parts focus on broad and well-established topic areas within cognitive psychology, such as perceptual processes and memory. The fifth considers a range of challenges, themes and issues – topics that have been thought to present challenges to the cognitive approach, such as emotion and consciousness; themes such as cognitive modelling and modularity; and issues such as the relation of cognition to biology. The first chapter is not located in one of these parts.
It attempts to give a historical and conceptual introduction to cognitive psychology, laying out the foundations of the subject, and raising some of the important themes and issues that are revisited in later chapters. Some of these themes are developed also in the introductions to each of the subsequent parts; we recommend that students read these introductions prior to reading their associated parts, and re-read them afterwards.
This book has been produced as the core text for the Open University’s level 3 course in Cognitive Psychology (DD303). However, it has been designed to serve students taking other courses in cognitive psychology as well, either as essential or recommended reading. There are a number of features of the design of this text that we hope will serve well both students learning about cognitive psychology and educators teaching the subject.
