Books about Airtight from Amazon.com

When it comes to "hos" and the men who run them, when it comes to intriguing and super paced rivalry between ambitious pushers and dealers who sell dreams in a blizzard of white powderl, when it comes to knowing the streets, it takes a real player and that palyer is Robert Beck. For more than two decades, Beck, writing as "Iceberg Slim" has fascinated or horrified readers of his books and stories. Beck doesn't create superflies ans superhos; he gives the reader real live people- people with hopes and fears who cough breath and bleed and who have grabbed the only ticket they can find out of misery but the ticket is often a one way trip into hell and suffering. This anthology of stories by Beck is a monument to the courage of the people of the streets. Some of them make it; most dont. Laugh along with them; cry when they cry; hurt when life turns against them..

Description:
A closed-system algal toxicity test with no headspace was applied to evaluate the toxicity of chlorophenols to Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata. The dissolved oxygen production and the growth rate based on cell density were the response endpoints. Phenol and seven chlorophenols were tested using the above test technique. Median effective concentrations (EC50) range from 0.004 to 25.93mg/l (based on DO production) and 0.0134 to 20.90mg/l (based on growth rate). No-observed-effect concentration (NOEC) is within the range of 0.001-8.19mg/l. In general, growth rate is a more sensitive response endpoint than the oxygen production, except for the case of pentachlorophenol. However, the differences in sensitivity between the two parameters were marginal. Furthermore, quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR's) based on the n-octanol/water partition coefficient (logP) and the acid dissociation constant (pK"a) values were established with R^2 ranged from 0.90 to 0.96. From literature data also based on P. subcapitata, the new test method is 1.65-108 times more sensitive than the conventional algal batch tests. A completely different relative-sensitivity relationship among various aquatic organisms was thus observed. The results of this study indicate that the toxicity data of volatile organic chemicals derived by conventional algal toxicity tests may severely underestimate the impact of these toxicants. Our results show that alga is very sensitive to chlorophenols compared to other aquatic organisms such as the luminescent bacteria (the Microtox test), Daphnia magna, and rainbow trout. .
