Clues and evidence discovered at an underwater park in the Puget Sound of Washington State lead divers and police officials to the conclusion that the accidental death of a diver was no accident at all. While the murder may be fictional, Bruce Higgins Underwater Trails in Edmonds, WA is the largest volunteer diver constructed and maintained underwater park on the west coast. The backgrounds on the local sea creatures will bring new divers up to speed quickly on cold water species, and hopefully the information will be found to be interesting to seasoned divers. Hopefully, this book is best read between dives, while crossing on a ferry, while on a live aboard vessel, before visiting the Puget Sound, or just when you feel like diving, but can't get the time off from the real world.

This is a scuba hand book that contains a comprehensive list of dive sites in all fifty states, plus selected sites in Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Information on these sites were collected on site, by intervies with dive shop owners, dive instructors, local avid divers, and from information collected from various websites. The point of this book is to inform you of dive activities and dive sites around The United States and abroad. You may not have heard of some of the dive sites, but once you read this book, you'll most likely have to go visit many of these sites to see, feel, and experience the local diving for yourself. Some of the States have just a handful of dive sites availbe to check out for yourself, while other states have thousands of dive sites. I couldn't name them all in one book, but this book will definitely get you started diving in the right direction.

A collection of stories that are aimed at those that can read in a tone of a young kindergarten teacher, but with the dark side and love of gallows humor like a combat veteran.These stories come from my fellow soldiers wanting bedtime stories while deployed to drown out the hum of fluorescent lighting and distant gunfire. In a war-torn country you take the laughs where you can get them, a close friend's battle with Montezuma's revenge, a sewage filled ditch that is just a bit too wide to jump over, or a short story about a girl's magical journey through an enchanted forest.These stories are NOT for children. I won't tell you how to raise your kids, but some of these produced dry heaves from war-hardened veterans, so proceed at your own risk.

Improving teaching is the key to genuine and sustainable school improvement. Improvement involves persuading teachers to change and develop their practice but, as anyone who has ever tried will testify, this is far from easy. The focus of Tweak to Transform is what head teachers and school leaders can do to manage the change process and improve the quality of teaching in a school. Essentially, Tweak to Transform is a practical handbook that seeks to address three questions. What do we know about change? What do we know about learning? What do we know about leading and managing the improvement process? While there is no single successful recipe for improving teaching in a school, this book attempts to establish some key principles. The result is a collection of thoughts, activities strategies and models that have been developed and successfully implemented in a wide range of schools.

This text explores what effective teaching is and offers a range of practical suggestions and handy tips for new entrants.
