Yancey is the author of several adult novels and the memoir “Confessions of a Tax Collector.” His first young adult novel, “The Extraordinary Adventures of Alfred Kropp,” was a finalist for the Carnegie Medal. All of the images and descriptions, particularly of the Others’ success in winning “the weak from the strong and the weak being swept away,” are ripe for cinematic creation, which Sony Pictures will shortly launch. The author is an expert at balancing tension, hope and bits of romance with unnerving bleak action that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. “The 5th Wave” contains occasional swearing and a few scenes with human violence. She is a girl who struggles to live when all the reasons to live are gone. Especially on target is Cassie whose “teen-speak” and sometimes arrogant eye-rolling-wit persists even in times of crisis. The strong and resourceful characters seek survival in inexplicable ways. The poignant theme “what makes us human?” will resonate with readers long after the final pages. Yancey has left many unanswered questions at the conclusion of “The 5th Wave.” Evan’s true identity is suspect as are the forces that can mitigate world peace since the Others claim Earth has been ruined and now is ready for a sophisticated re-colonization. Sam happens to be the youngest and smallest of the trainees.Ĭassie’s and Ben’s conflicts converge with similar missions to overthrow the galactic invaders while fearing the fifth wave.

They promise his safety, but Cassie believes otherwise and armed with a M-16 rifle plans to rescue Sam. One survivor, 16-year-old Cassie Sullivan, loses her parents - her mother to the plague and father by a so-called protector - then watches her little brother, Sam, being snatched away on a yellow school bus by the Others. Those remaining await the next wave, the fifthīut these were not sudden attacks. In all, the waves “hit a 97 percent kill rate.” During the fourth wave, the “infected,” humans whose brains became hosts to aliens’ consciousness at birth, hunt and destroy anyone who survived the previous waves. The third wave, “The Red Death,” is a highly contagious avian plague. The first wave is an electromagnetic storm that leaves the Earth in darkness, followed next by a geological fault line releasing a tsunami destroying the world’s coastlines. This gripping apocalyptic tale, the first of a trilogy, begins as aliens called Others hover, then obliterate most of the Earth’s population in waves. To give up or to get up." THE 5TH WAVE ," by Rick Yancey, Putnam, $18.99, 457 pages (f) (ages 14 and up) But Cassie must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassie’s only hope for rescuing her brother–or even saving herself. To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Walker. Who have scattered Earth’s last survivors. The beings who only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see. Now, it’s the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely stretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them. After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive.

![]() ![]() Dark toning is the natural state of very old copper when not protected. In the row of Lincoln cents are many of the problems that easily affect copper coins. An example is the 1833 Half Cent pictured. Collectors find fascination in the different designs and symbolism as well as the different alloys of US coinage. The coins themselves are the visual enjoyment, miniature works of art. Rising and falling mintages alone reflect the changing commerce throughout history. US coins date back to the beginnings of the country its exploration and settlement. Step 4: | Special Qualities Enhancing ValueĬollecting coins is a visual as well as a historical pursuit. In Step 1 above, follow the image links to each coin series and in-depth grading. □Each coin design has its own features to judge and determine grades. Images, video, and descriptions are used to compare your coin and help narrow both the condition and value. Amount of wear is a major difference in values represented on the charts. In the example, Lincoln remains well outline, however, only small portions of hair, face, and coat show any small details.Ĭollectors inspect each coin very closely. Good Grade: Once heavy wear has removed most of the design, a coin is judged and defined within the Good Grade. Notice there remains contours separating the temple, cheek, and jaw. The example penny show flatness on Lincoln's cheek and jaw line. Major parts of the design are well detailed, small high relief areas are smooth. Look closely at Lincoln's hair, only minor wear shows.įine Grade: Coins with moderate wear are defined as Fine grade. Next, Extremely Fine Grade: Light wear only, with just slight removal of high points of the design defines a coin in Extremely Fine Grade. On Wheat cents, Lincoln's cheek remains without any dulling or smoothing from wear. Key parts of the coin are examined to confirm absence of wear. The grade and definition of a coin without wear is Mint State Grade.įirst penny in the image is the Mint State Grade. Different stages of wear are defined by a Grade. When used and circulated through commerce, parts of the design begin to wear down and loose detail. When first minted a coin has no wear to the surface. Judging and Grading the condition of the coins' surface. Step 3: | Grading Condition | Old Coin Values are ConditionalĬondition: Now begins an important part to the value of old coins. □ In Step 1: Images link to pages going into detail identifying mintmarks and their locations.

Today, coins are collected by date and mintmark combination. The dime represents the very popular "CC" mintmark of the Carson City mint. For example, the Denver mint places a "D" mintmark on all coins it strikes. Branch mints were added across the country overtime and each placed a mintmark on coins to indicate their production. Philadelphia mint is the original and primary mint of the US with coinage beginning in 1793.

![]() ![]() The cleanest way to think about complex numbers is as points on the complex plane, where ‘‘pure phases’’ such as all fall on the unit circle, an angle of radians from the x-axis. I should say a bit more about how to interpret complex numbers like. Remember that Euler's formula relates imaginary exponentials to sinusoids: Okay enough of a tangent, back to the class. Or when you're talking about electromagnetic waves propagating in a dialectric (aka light travelling through a material), the real and imaginary parts of the dialectric constant correspond to absorptive losses that cause the light intensity to decay exponentially, or a phase shift (ie, light speeding up or slowing down) inside the material. ![]() ![]() When you're talking about damped harmonic motion (such as a spring-and-mass system in a bowl of syrup), the motion looks like a sinusoid inside a decaying exponential envelope it's a bit nicer to just think in terms of an exponential with a complex exponent, where the real part is the decaying envelope and the imaginary part is the frequency. Now that I think about it, there's a few places where it's actually quite enlightening and helpful to think in terms of complex exponentials. I never really grew out of the awkwardness like many things in life, I guess once you see it enough, you just get used to it. I remember when I first encountered them in solving for E'n'M waves, it felt pretty awkward and uncomfortable I didn't really know what I was writing. Using complex exponentials is a common ‘cute’ trick in math and physics. ![]() ![]() ![]() I'm not gonna delete that new fact in teh Trivia section, that one about the game having a message about pollution.because it kind of has a point, but at the same time, I don't think it's necessary or Trivia-like or accurate.

In a two-stroke engine, the exhaust gases transfer less heat to the cooling system than a four-stroke, which means more energy to drive the piston, and if present, a turbocharger.Ĭrankcase-compression two-stroke engines, such as common small gasoline-powered engines, are lubricated by a petroil mixture in a total-loss system. However, when weight and size are not an issue, the cycle's potential for high thermodynamic efficiency makes it ideal for diesel compression ignition engines operating in large, weight-insensitive applications, such as marine propulsion, railway locomotives, and electricity generation. Two-stroke gasoline engines with electrical spark ignition are particularly useful in lightweight or portable applications such as chainsaws and motorcycles. The first truly practical two-stroke engine is attributed to Yorkshireman Alfred Angas Scott, who started producing twin-cylinder water-cooled motorcycles in 1908. On 31 December 1879, German inventor Karl Benz produced a two-stroke gas engine, for which he received a patent in 1880 in Germany. The crankcase-scavenged engine, employing the area below the piston as a charging pump, is generally credited to Englishman Joseph Day. ![]() However, unlike most later two-stroke engines, his had a separate charging cylinder. The first commercial two-stroke engine involving cylinder compression is attributed to Scottish engineer Dugald Clerk, who patented his design in 1881. ![]() ![]() ![]() It is considered to be several times faster than any other site.
