The Handbook of Salmon Farming

By: Selina M. Stead,Lindsay Laird

Over the past few years, there has been significant growth and development in the salmon farming industry. In order to be successful, practitioners not only need to know how the salmon lives and survives in the wild but, amongst other things have knowledge of disease, production processes, economics and marketing. The Handbook of Salmon Farming is a practical guide that covers everything the practitioner needs to know, and will also be of great use to academics and students of aquaculture and fish biology. The editors have invited contributions from experts in academia, the fish industry and government to provide an up-to-date and comprehensive handbook.

Mark Twain in China

Mark Twain in China

By: Selina Lai-Henderson

Mark Twain (Samuel Langhorne Clemens, 1835–1910) has had an intriguing relationship with China that is not as widely known as it should be. Although he never visited the country, he played a significant role in speaking for the Chinese people both at home and abroad. After his death, his Chinese adventures did not come to an end, for his body of works continued to travel through China in translation throughout the twentieth century. Were Twain alive today, he would be elated to know that he is widely studied and admired there, and that Adventures of Huckleberry Finn alone has gone through no less than ninety different Chinese translations, traversing China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. Looking at Twain in various Chinese contexts—his response to events involving the American Chinese community and to the Chinese across the Pacific, his posthumous journey through translation, and China's reception of the author and his work, Mark Twain in China points to the repercussions of Twain in a global theater. It highlights the cultural specificity of concepts such as "race," "nation," and "empire," and helps us rethink their alternative legacies in countries with dramatically different racial and cultural dynamics from the United States.

OBSESSION

By: Selina Elliot

Tessa knew that she deserved the fate that had befallen her. The decision to run away from a father who hated her and a marriage she wanted no part of was entirely hers. Certainly the outcome was her responsibility. So why did she keep trying to escape her life? Had she not learned that her master's control was absolute? Escape would never be possible. And yet, when a trip across the ocean presented an unlikely opportunity, she didn't hesitate. But was Tessa reaching too far? Was redemption impossible? Even as a child Trey understood that there was no law to protect a slave against the whims of a white man. So there would be no justice for his family unless he took matters into his own hands. As an adult Trey swore that there would be nothing that would keep Baron Henley safe from his revenge. But even well laid plans could go awry. Particularly when his attention was diverted to the bewildering, raven-haired beauty he impulsively abducted.

Hong Kong Protest Leaders – Sick facts that Western countries do not know

when a democratic movement itself is not democratic ...

By: Selina Co

A terrible example of democratic movements: when a fight for democracy is just an excuse for riots and anti-government movements … Hong Kong protest activists have been proactively contacting foreign governments and foreign press, telling them how righteous they are and why their governments are wrong. But why have they not received the majority’s supports from the locals? Award-winning author, Selina Co, is a Hong Kong citizen (dual citizen) and is native in Cantonese (Hong Kong’s spoken language) and fluent in English and Mandarin. Selina has interviewed Hongkongers from all walks of life and translated protest activists’ videos, statistics, local newspapers and verified reports to English, showing protest activists’ misconducts, misleading actions, lies, misbehaviours and how undemocratic protest leaders have been. Sources are presented to you whereas possible so that you can verify them. Most of these have never been presented to foreign governments or foreign press. Being currently in Australia, Selina can speak freely and present facts, without interference by China or by protesters and have no conflict of interests from either side. This book also tells you about its history and problems the people face, from the society before the riots, how the society was like after it returned to China, back to the time when it was a British colony in the 1990s and how it was colonised in 1841. We will also look into accusations against the Hong Kong police in 2019-20 political unrest. We will also discuss different aspects of Hong Kong politics, such as elections of the Chief Executive and members of the legislative council, pro-protest politicians and pro-government politicians, accusations against the governments and self-proclaimed pro-democracy leader Joshua Wong and other protest leaders and why independence would bring more harms than benefits to the people. Perhaps, you will find that this historical ‘democratic movement’ is just a scam … P.S. This book has nothing to do with cybercrime. Selina only happens to be a cybercrime detective, graduated from a top university there. ** This book is written for the best interest of the people. It has no intention to support or oppose Communist China. From the Author The lady in the front cover is the iconic Goddess of Democracy, frequently used in pro-democratic movements in the region, including the 1989 Tiananmen Square incident. Her tears of blood here represent that her values and righteous are distorted and misused. From the Inside Flap After 2047, Hong Kong will follow Communist China, as the Sino-British Joint Declaration will no longer be in effect. Aren't these rioters too young to be policemen? Also, policemen must look at least slightly muscular because they are physically trained. What do you say? This had made multiple headlines in many Hong Kong local newspapers; but for the foreign press, only BBC had briefly reported this instance as a side story, not even mentioned she called her own employer and government 'Re-f***ing' of CH-INA in her oath as per her video

Building Temples in China

Memories, Tourism and Identities

By: Selina Ching Chan,Graeme Lang

Much has been written on how temples are constructed or reconstructed for reviving local religious and communal life or for recycling tradition after the market reforms in China. The dynamics between the state and society that lie behind the revival of temples and religious practices initiated by the locals have been well-analysed. However, there is a gap in the literature when it comes to understanding religious revivals that were instead led by local governments. This book examines the revival of worship of the Chinese Deity Huang Daxian and the building of many new temples to the god in mainland China over the last 20 years. It analyses the role of local governments in initiating temple construction projects in China, and how development-oriented temple-building activities in Mainland China reveal the forces of transnational ties, capital, markets and identities, as temples were built with the hope of developing tourism, boosting the local economy, and enhancing Chinese identities for Hong Kong worshippers and Taiwanese in response to the reunification of Hong Kong to China. Including chapters on local religious memory awakening, pilgrimage as a form of tourism, women temple managers, entrepreneurialism and the religious economy, and based on extensive fieldwork, Chan and Lang have produced a truly interdisciplinary follow up to The Rise of a Refugee God which will appeal to students and scholars of Chinese religion, Chinese culture, Asian anthropology, cultural heritage and Daoism alike.

Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks

Management, Performance, and Applications

By: Jing (Selina) He,Mr. Shouling Ji,Yingshu Li,Yi Pan

Although wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been employed across a wide range of applications, there are very few books that emphasize the algorithm description, performance analysis, and applications of network management techniques in WSNs. Filling this need, Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks: Management, Performance, and Applications summarizes not only traditional and classical network management techniques, but also state-of-the-art techniques in this area. The articles presented are expository, but scholarly in nature, including the appropriate history background, a review of current thinking on the topic, and a discussion of unsolved problems. The book is organized into three sections. Section I introduces the basic concepts of WSNs and their applications, followed by the summarization of the network management techniques used in WSNs. Section II begins by examining virtual backbone-based network management techniques. It points out some of the drawbacks in classical and existing methods and proposes several new network management techniques for WSNs that can address the shortcomings of existing methods. Each chapter in this section examines a new network management technique and includes an introduction, literature review, network model, algorithm description, theoretical analysis, and conclusion. Section III applies proposed new techniques to some important applications in WSNs including routing, data collection, data aggregation, and query processing. It also conducts simulations to verify the performance of the proposed techniques. Each chapter in this section examines a particular application using the following structure: brief application overview, application design and implementation, performance analysis, simulation settings, and comments for different test cases/scenario configurations.
