Nutrition is the key driver of animal health, welfare and production. In agriculture, nutrition is crucial to meet increasing global demands for animal protein and consumer demands for cheaper meat, milk and eggs and higher standards of animal welfare. For companion animals, good nutrition is essential for quality and length of life. Animal Nutrition examines the science behind the nutrition and feeding of the major domesticated animal species: sheep, beef cattle, dairy cattle, deer, goats, pigs, poultry, camelids, horses, dogs and cats. It includes introductory chapters on digestion and feeding standards, followed by chapters on each animal, containing information on digestive anatomy and physiology, evidence-based nutrition and feeding requirements, and common nutritional and metabolic diseases. Clear diagrams, tables and breakout boxes make this text readily understandable and it will be of value to tertiary students and to practising veterinarians, livestock consultants, producers and nutritionists.

"This study contributes to the limited evidence available on how invitational narrative approaches are used in the domestic and family violence field. It focused on invitational narrative ways of engaging and working with men who perpetrate domestic and family violence. Focusing on the processes and skills of practice embedded in invitational narrative ideas enabled the examination of different ways of engaging men that have the potential to lead to sustained change. Accordingly, the main aim of this study was to explore invitational narrative ways of working in order to build an understanding of the processes and skills that engage men and enable behavioural and attitudinal change." --Executive summary (page 6).

This evaluation report identifies experiences, motivations, supporting mechanisms, barriers and impacts of fee-for-service commercial activities undertaken by Indigenous Land and Water Management (ILWM) organisations. The report draws on a literature review, interviews with ILWM organisations, administrative data, in-depth case studies, and online survey data.

This report provides an overview of the implementation of the Water plan (Mary Basin) 2006 and summarises the findings of the assessments undertaken for the last five years. The plan supports urban water supply and a variety of industries including significant agricultural production, a growing tourism industry and fisheries.

"The HIV resilience framework will be of relevance to a wide range of people involved at all levels of the HIV response. We hope it provides encouragement for government decision makers and policy developers to pursue consistent and enabling policy and legislative environments and work cooperatively between jurisdictions and across departments to achieve best practice. Our consultation suggests that consistent legislation with the goal of supporting strong health outcomes, making disclosure safe, and eliminating stigmatising laws is crucial to creating environments in which people with HIV feel safe to access testing, treatment, and care. The HIV resilience framework also contains valuable insights for those who have responsibility for HIV health program management and service delivery, providing guidance to help ensure that programs, services, interventions or strategies supporting people living with HIV are developed and delivered in a way that is mindful of the interlinked twin goals of building personal resilience and eliminating stigma and discrimination." --President's message (page 6).

"A special challenge of hard rock exploration is to identify targets of interest within complex geological settings. Interpretation of the geology can be made from direct geological observations and knowledge of the area, and from 2D or 3D seismic surveys. These interpretations can be developed into 3D geological models that provide the basis for predictions as to likely targets for drilling and/or mining. To verify these predictions we need to simulate 3D seismic wave propagation in the proposed geological models and compare the simulation results to seismic survey data. To achieve this we convert geological surfaces created in an interpretation software package into discretised block models representing the different lithostratigraphic units, and segment these into discrete volumes to which appropriate density and seismic velocity values are assigned. This approach allows us to scale models appropriately for desired wave propagation parameters and to go from local to global geological models and vice versa. Then we use these digital models with forward modelling codes to undertake numerous 3D acoustic wave simulations. Simulations are performed with single shot and with exploding reflector (located on extracted geological surface) configurations" -- Summary.

"This document is intended to summarise the current state, understanding and the use of seismic reflection method for mineral exploration. Its primary objective is to provide a point of reference, based on actual case studies, for mineral explorers interested in the application of seismic methods to their project. It provides summary information (including the purpose of the survey, acquisition methods, geometry and cost, processing procedures and key findings) that are intended to provide the reader with an objective means of assessing the cost effectiveness of the technique with respect to exploration objectives. It is also aimed at exchange of information between DETCRC sponsors, affiliates and researchers. Finally we hope that this table will help in shaping future research efforts and direction within Project 3.1, regarding the application of seismic for mineral exploration.This is only initial work and it is hoped that it will evolve into a document or a catalogue that will be extensively used by the mineral industry to achieve their exploration objectives in more efficient and effective way" -- Executive summary.

"Xander joins his local am-dram group in order to make friends. He certainly doesn't expect to fall for the group's playboy star. Graeme is confident and easygoing. He believes in fun without commitment. However, all that changes when Xander gets under his skin" -- Pub;isher info.

From Trash to Treasure is an intensely honest account of a life powerfully redeemed and is a demonstration of the goodness of God. Lee Habbershaw's journey to recovery from sexual abuse moved me to tears - sometimes in compassion, but often in joy. The book is rich with the landmark of life events and Biblical truths which, layer by layer, led Lee into the powerful teaching and counselling ministry she operates in today. This book could change your life (page 7)

From Australia's master storyteller comes an uplifting story of new and old friendships, letting go of the past and looking to the future... Does one simple act of kindness have the power to completely turn someone's life around? It's been a year since Hannah Ainsley lost her husband and parents - her whole family - in a car crash on Christmas morning. Despite her overwhelming loss, she's worked hard to pull the pieces of her life together with the help of a group of dear, loyal friends. But while Hannah is beginning to become excited about the future again, she's concerned that her best friend and talented artist Sam is facing a crisis of her own. It's now Hannah's turn to be Sam's rock - can she save Sam's dreams from unravelling? When Hannah returns to work after her holidays, she can't settle. She's loved her job for a decade, and it's been her lifeline during her grief. But something's changed. She's changed. And for all this time she's avoided knowing the details of the accident or investigation - what would be the point, she'd thought, when nothing will bring her loved ones back? But after a chance meeting, it's all there in front of her - and, like ripples in a pond, it extends beyond her own experiences. Could knowing be the key to her recovery? Could her involvement be the key to someone else's? From Australia's master storyteller comes an uplifting story of new and old friendships, letting go of the past and looking to the future...

A fun light story by Grammy of camping in the Vales with nighttime noises and shadows scaring all. She knew who was scurrying around the campsite. Would you like to know too? -- Publisher.

To evaluate bicycle passing distances in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), specialised passing distance measurement devices (PDMDs) were installed on a sample of 23 cyclists who ride in the ACT. Passing distance data and GPS data was collected by cyclists using the PDMDs for a four week period, during a trial phase of a newly legislated minimum passing distance (MPD) rule The MPD rule requires drivers to provide more than 1 metre of space when passing a cyclist on a road with a speed limit of 60 km/h or below, and 1.5 meters of space when passing a cyclist on a road with a speed limit above 60 km/h.-- Abstract.
