  • KEENE, Carolyn
    KEENE, Carolyn Harriet Stratemeyer Adams Geboren: 1892. Overleden: 1982 Zoals veel juniorenmysteries, is de Nancy Drew-serie bedacht en werd (althans in het begin) de plot geschetst door Edward Stratemeyer [> Franklin W. Dixon] van het Stratemeyer Concern. Zijn dochter, Harriet Stratemeyer Adams nam later de uitgeverij over en claimde lange tijd de schrijver te zijn van àlle Nancy Drew-verhalen vanaf 1930 tot 1982. Onderzoek bracht aan het licht dat dit niet het geval was. De Nancy-verhalen werden, evenals andere Stratemeyer-series, geschreven door een aantal voorheen anonieme professionele schrijvers, waarvan de belangrijkste Mildred A. Wirt Benson (zie onder) was tot het moment dat Harriet Adams in 1953 (vanaf nummer 30) inderdaad begon met het schrijven van nieuwe delen en ook de oude delen vanaf 1959 reviseerde. Opmerkelijk en uniek is de zorgvuldigheid waarmee geprobeerd werd alle sporen omtrent de ‘echte’ auteurs uit te wissen. Byzantijnse plotten en samenzweringen werden gesmeed om veranderde copyrights; dossiers van The Library of Congress verdwenen en niet bestaande overheidsambtenaren werden opgevoerd om de namen van de ware schrijvers uit de boeken te laten verdwijnen.

THE SECRET OF THE OLD CLOCK IS ABOUT NANCY, A VERY ATTRACTIVE BLONDE HEADED GIRL WHO IS TRYING TO HELP HER FRIENDS FIND JOSIAH CROWLEY'S OTHER WILL, WHILE ALSO HELPING THE POLICE DISCOVER THIEFS OF HER FRIEND'S BELONGINGS. I READ THIS 180 PAGED BOOK IN ONE DAY, AND IT WAS VERY HARD TO PUT DOWN. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY BOOK I HAVE READ ABOUT NANCY DREW, I RECCOMEND THE OTHERS TOO.ÜÜÜ Susan and Bill had been writing for some time before they began to write mysteries for adults. At the request of readers, book collectors, and librarians, here is a list of all their books, organized according to the name or pseudonym they used. Susan's books (written independently) are listed first; their co-authored books are listed second. Bill's independent writing consists of the computer programs, documentation, and technical manuals he wrote in his previous incarnation as a systems analyst—he didn't think you'd be interested in that stuff. Currently, I am writing a book which focuses on the history of Nancy Drew. A biography on the original "Carolyn Keene," Mildred Wirt Benson, is in the works. While this website is a good introduction into the world of Nancy Drew, you will find in-depth analysis of all things Drew in my upcoming book. One of the earliest book related collectibles is the Nancy Drew Mystery Game issued by Parker Brothers in 1957.

  • The Charlotte Sawdust February 1999
    THE CHARLOTTE SAWDUST FEBRUARY 1999 February’s Meeting “Claw & Ball Carving” by Robert Reading February’s meeting topic will be a presentation on Claw & Ball Carving by John McAlister. Mr. McAlister had recently made a reproduction of a Goddard-Townsend secretary, for which Fine Woodworking Magazine honored him with the back cover. He was featured in the April 1998 issue (no. 129). John's work is also featured in our gallery of members’ work. New members should take a look at what is in the gallery. Members’ Gallery by Dave Lewis The Charlotte Woodworkers Association maintains a Members’ Gallery where you can show off your projects. It’s on display at every meeting, and at special functions in which the Association participates. To have your projects shown in the Gallery, it’s a simple matter of providing Dave Lewis with a good quality photo (color preferred) and a brief description of the project. It’s been a while since we’ve gotten recent photos. Many of you must have had Christmas projects to do. Let's have a copy of your latest effort to share with others. Since the Charlotte Woodworkers Association is now on-line (www.charlottewoodworkers.org), we'll also need more photos for the Web Site. Call Dave Lewis (541-0411) if you need help with the photography. Scanning is available to get your photos on-line, too. After all, there’s nothing quite like having a worldwide audience for your work! Last Month’s Meeting “Veneering” by David Waters We would like to thank Jack Coobs for January’s presentation on veneering.

  • Investigating the Vulnerabilities of Structures to Ignition from a Firebrand Attack
    Investigating the Vulnerabilities of Structures to Ignition From a Firebrand Attack SAMUEL L. MANZELLO1, JOHN R. SHIELDS1, YOSHIHIKO HAYASHI2, and DAISAKU NII2 1Building and Fire Research Laboratory (BFRL) National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 100 Bureau Drive, Gaithersburg, MD 20899-8662 USA 2Department of Fire Engineering Building Research Institute (BRI) 1 Tachihara, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, 305-802 Japan ABSTRACT A unique experimental apparatus, known as the Firebrand Generator, was used to generate a controlled and repeatable size and mass distribution of glowing firebrands. The size and mass distribution of firebrands produced from the generator was selected to be representative of firebrands produced from burning vegetation. The vulnerability of roofing materials to firebrand attack was ascertained using fluxes of firebrands produced using this device. The experiments were performed at the Fire Research Wind Tunnel Facility (FRWTF) at the Building Research Institute (BRI) in Tsukuba, Japan. A custom mounting assembly was constructed to support full scale sections of common roofing materials inside the FRWTF. The sections constructed for testing included full roofing assemblies (base layer, tar paper, and shingles) as well as only the base layer material, such as oriented strand board (OSB). The custom mounting assembly allowed for the construction of flat roofs as well as the construction of angled roofs (valleys). Results of this study are presented and discussed. KEYWORDS: wildland-urban interface (WUI) fires, ignition, firebrands, roofing INTRODUCTION The Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) is defined as a location where structures meet or intermingle with undeveloped wildland. In 2003, WUI fires in the vicinity of San Diego, California displaced nearly 100,000 people and destroyed over 3000 homes, leading to over $2B in insured losses [1].

Books Robert B. The spine remains undamaged. Great condition for a used book! Buehler draws his inspiration from centuries of workboat construction, where semiskilled fishermen built rugged, economical boats from everyday materials in their own backyards, and went to sea in them in all kinds of weather. Does that sound like boatbuilding for everyperson? Centerboards and Rudders. The author's lessons learned have application for all back-yard wooden boat builders. Parker has streamlined the cold-molding process to produce economical sturdy boats. Ideally suited to the amateur builder wanting a good, solid cruising boat, this is a complete soup-to-nuts presentation of the cold-molding process, with chapters detailing every facet of construction--from choosing a design and setting-up, through engine installation and wiring, to launching and sea trials. Possible clean ex-library copy, with their stickers and or stamp s. Parker , Perfect. Although intended for boat builders, this book has a lot to offer to anyone interested in protecting wood from the elements. Related Searches.
