Book Description
Preparing the Honda CR and XR for Competition includes Training Tips from Marty Smith, and and a detailed look at the CR and RC Honda Factory Race Bikes First published in 1979 as the "Moto-X Fox Guide to Preparing the Honda CR and XR for Competition," this expanded 84-page book was written and photographed by famed 1970's Cycle News editor, racer and motocross journalist Jim "Jimmy the Greek" Gianatsis. Included is a later published 16-page Supplement featuring the 1980 season water-cooled RC Pro-Link monoshock works bikes, and a look at the rare RC125-80 twin cylinder motocross bike. Covered is the development and racing history of the Honda 2-stroke CR production and RC works bikes raced by the Don Jones family with Gary and DeWayne in 1973, through to to the exotic RC works machines raced by Marty Smith, Marty Tripes, Pierre Karsmakers, Jimmy Ellis, Graham Noyce and Brad Lackey up through 1980 with the water-cooled Pro-Link bikes. Included is race bike preparation from American Honda factory mechanics Cliff White and Bill Buchka. Honda CR production bike race preparation and tuning is provided by the Moto-X Fox Racing Team, the top privateer team in motocross with tuners Keith Bontranger and Paul Turner for riders Steve Wise, Jim Turner, Larry Wosick and the Honda factory team. There is also a special chapter covering the Honda XR 4-stroke trail bikes and how to prepare them for motocross. Included is "Training Tips from Marty Smith" of Team Honda and 500cc National Motocross Champion. "Preparing the Honda CR and XR for Competition" serves as very interesting reading and a great historical reference guide for dirt bike fans both young and old. Many of the bike preparation and riding tips are still relevant today. A must have for any dirt bike enthusiast or collector.

Book Description
Biomass obtained from agricultural residues or forest can be used to produce different materials and bioenergy required in a modern society. As compared to other resources available, biomass is one of the most common and widespread resources in the world. Thus, biomass has the potential to provide a renewable energy source, both locally and across large areas of the world. It is estimated that the total investment in the biomass sector between 2008 and 2021 will reach the large sum of $104 billion. Presently bioenergy is the most important renewable energy option and will remain so the near and medium-term future. Previously several countries try to explore the utilization of biomass in bioenergy and composite sector. Biomass has the potential to become the world’s largest and most sustainable energy source and will be very much in demand. Bioenergy is based on resources that can be utilized on a sustainable basis all around the world and can thus serve as an effective option for the provision of energy services. In addition, the benefits accrued go beyond energy provision, creating unique opportunities for regional development. The present book will provide an up-to-date account of non-wood, forest residues, agricultural biomass (natural fibers), and energy crops together with processing, properties and its applications to ensure biomass utilization and reuse. All aspects of biomass and bioenergy and their properties and applications will be critically re-examined. The book consists of three sections, presenting Non wood and forest products from forestry, arboriculture activities or from wood processing, agricultural biomass (natural fibers) from agricultural harvesting or processing and finally energy crops: high yield crops and grasses grown especially for energy production.

Book Description
The experimental analysis of animal behavior has a rich tradition in psychology, behavioral ecology and many other scientific branches dedicated to the study of decision making. However, it has never enjoyed a similar popularity in economics. This has recently changed with the dawn of neuroeconomics – a discipline combining the analytic and experimental tools of psychology and economics with the technologies available in neuroscience to unravel the neurobiological mechanisms underlying economic behavior. Since many of the sophisticated neuroscientific techniques can only be used on animals, neuroeconomists have come up with a large and ever-growing repertoire of animal models to probe economic decision making. Besides the value of using animals as model systems to emulate human economic behavior, the discipline of animal economic decision making exists in its very own right: an abundance of animal species at various evolutionary stages show behavior that complies with many of the predictions of economic theory, whilst, at the same time demonstrating violations of optimal choice models that are reminiscent of similar anomalies found in human behavior. Hence, the analysis of animal choice does not only offer insights into the evolutionary origins of economic decision making, it also testifies that the analysis of animal behavior is a convenient, economical and sound way to test competing economic decision models in optimally controlled experimental environments, to probe their neural implementation and to yield common denominators in choice behavior. In short, economic theory provides more than just an alternative language to describe animal psychology: its combination with biology, psychology and neuroscience gives way to synergy effects that open up new venues for studying economic choice. In this special issue, we would like to gather the latest results from this cross-disciplinary topic, address the overlap and discrepancies in (the neurobiology of) economic decision making found between species and identify the challenges that lie ahead in translating results from species to species, and ultimately to humans. The exclusive focus on non-human animals makes this Research Topic unique and distinct from previous special issues which covered a broader range of matters and subjects in the neurobiological analysis of decision making.
