Case Of The Surfing Secret

The "trenchcoat twins" learn to surf while on vacation in Southern California, but when a friend seems to have a few too many wipeouts, the twins search for a surfboard saboteur.

The twins must discover who has threatened a contestant in the big surfing contest.

Mary-Kate and Ashley must find a missing robot before the science fair is cancelled.

Back in California for the surfing competition, Dawn must soon solve a mystery involving a missing surfer, a mangled surfboard, and a ghost who surfs at night.

Mary-Kate has a great new hobby: acting. She has the starring role in the next school play and she's thrilled to discover that her leading man is none other than Ross Lambert -- a supersweet guy who also happens to be Ashley's big-time crush! Ashley is excited for her sister until she finds out Mary-Kate has to kiss Ross on stage! There's no way that's going to happen -- not if Ashley can help it, that is!

Against many warnings, Kimo repeatedly returns to the forbidden beach, even though he knows it's a sacred Hawaiian place. Book jacket.

This is a work of cllimate fiction set in Crocodile Dundee country in the Northern Territory of Australia. When the body of Alex Petersen, an employee of Parks Australia, is found at Gunlom Falls in Kakadu National Park, the Northern Territory Police are determined to uncover the truth behind his murder. Tensions are high between the Traditional Owners, government and a global miner, as the dispute over the environmental clean up of Ranger Uranium Mine continues. Meanwhile, is there a cover up of government funds behind a gas fracking mine on aboriginal land and a port too close to cultural sites in Darwin. An indignous paleo astronomy course field trip in Kakadu, brings together a young Norwegian marine biologist, an astronomer from Edinburgh, and an archaeologist from Sydney. As the disparate group of characters navigate between the worlds of politics and culture, they uncover secrets that could explain the murder.

Quantum computers will revolutionize the way telecommunications networks function. Quantum computing holds the promise of solving problems that would be intractable with conventional computers by implementing principles from quantum physics in the development of computer hardware, software and communications equipment. Quantum-assisted computing will be the first step towards full quantum systems, and will cause immense disruption of our traditional networks. The world’s biggest manufacturers are investing large amounts of resources to develop crucial quantum-assisted circuits and devices. Quantum Computing and Communications: Gives an overview of basic quantum computing algorithms and their enhanced versions such as efficient database searching, counting and phase estimation. Introduces quantum-assisted solutions for telecom problems including multi-user detection in mobile systems, routing in IP based networks, and secure ciphering key distribution. Includes an accompanying website featuring exercises (with solution manual) and sample algorithms from the classical telecom world, corresponding quantum-based solutions, bridging the gap between pure theory and engineering practice. This book provides telecommunications engineers, as well as graduate students and researchers in the fields of computer science and telecommunications, with a wide overview of quantum computing & communications and a wealth of essential, practical information.
