[ "It all started with a conversation between the leaders of the Benelux Union; Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, after a meeting of the entire European Union. 3 years later, on what was to become known as C-Day, all at once, United Nations dignitaries, ambassadors, and their staffs, left the U.S. Conference rooms were empty. Meetings were missed. They collectively closed up shop and left. Embassies locked their doors. Foreign lobbying offices were barren. The next day, at 8pm EST in the U.S., every major network in the rest of the world (ROTW) broadcasted the largest assembly of world leaders, both in person, live from The Hague, and via satellite, that had ever been convened. The ROTW declared they no longer wished to do business, or have any involvement, cooperation, or communication, whatsoever, with the U.S. The deployment of drones, the endless “collateral damage” of civilians, the chemical weapons that were stockpiled, the plots to kill heads of state, and the unending spying. The selling of arms for drugs for arms to overthrow elected officials that were not in sync with American needs. Everything that the U.S. government accused other countries of doing was practiced foremost by the U.S. The world finally decided to give the U.S. the “silent treatment”, to send them to Coventry, as the British were fond of saying. Chaos, panic, and financial collapse ensued. And that was just the beginning. From first time author, David Davis, comes an intriguing, fact based fictional look at what would happen if the U.S. was shunned by the rest of the world." ]

[ "Fans--they are mysterious and magical, and have been elevated to an art form by the great artists and decorators. They can be viewed as a tangible extension of femininity, style, and elegance. This book tells the fascinating tale of the fan as both a charming fashion accessory and a sophisticated mirror reflecting the changes in fashion and culture over time. Covering medieval times to the twentieth century, individual chapters trace the history of fans and their relationship to the major fashion trends of each era. Over 255 images, including dramatic original photos as well as historical illustrations, showcase fans made of paper, silk, lace, wood, celluloid, feathers, and more. Different shapes and styles of fans are featured, including fixed, pleated, and brise fans, souvenir fans, even several restored fans shown in \"before and after\" photos. An outstanding resource for fashion historians, students, designers, collectors, and aficionados, this unique study of the fan and its relationship to fashion will be of great interest to anyone who appreciates beautiful clothing and beautiful accessories." ]

Featuring everything from born-again trattorie to the burgeoning apertif trend, it offers visitors the chance to experience the Eternal City as the Romans do. History in Rome is not confined to museums, basilicas and galleries — it tumbles out everywhere. And though the city is reassuringly compact, this does not stop the cultural onslaught from being utterly bewildering and exhausting. While some travelers may have to face the fact that they probably won't see everything, it is also important not to shut oneself up inside all day looking at collections and sites or you will miss all that the outdoor scene has to offer.", "Time Out Rome", "helps travelers navigate through the cobblestone streets, so that they can eat, drink and shop like the natives.

[ "As novel, complex social problems increase, especially those involving vulnerable people who reside in challenging places, the limitations of conventional research methods implemented by just one or two investigators become apparent. Research and development alternatives are needed, particularly methods that engage teams of researchers in real world problem solving while simultaneously generating practice- and policy-relevant knowledge. Research methods that effectively tap the expertise of everyday people, especially those impacted by these targeted social problems, are a special priority because academic researchers often lack experiential knowledge that stems from direct, everyday encounters with these vexing problems.Participatory action research (PAR) responds to these manifest needs. It provides a methodological structure and operational guidelines for preparing and deploying people from various walks of life as co-researchers, and it provides a proven strategy for generating practice- and policy-relevant knowledge as problem-solving in real world contexts proceeds." ]

[ "Review", "\"A very helpful pocket guide! The authors articulate the key principles and phases of PAR in a compelling way. The real-world examples of how researchers, practitioners, and community members have used PAR showcase the value of this unique methodology in social work research.

Able to change shape with lightning speed, to kill silently or with savage, snarling fury, he proved his talents against Rommel in Africa. Now he faces his most delicate, dangerous mission: to unravel the secret Nazi plan known as Iron Fist. From a parachute jump into occupied France to the lush corruption of Berlin, from the arms of a beautiful spy to the cold embrace of a madman's death machine, Gallatin draws ever closer to the ghastly truth about Iron Fist. But with only hours to D-Day, he is trapped in the Nazis' web of destruction...." ]

[ "From author, Charles E. Kupchella comes a new contender for one of the best book on evolutionary psychology, a book exploring the connections between evolution, ethics and morality. Religion is thought by many to be the source of morality. It isn’t. Morality came to us through biological evolution and rudiments of it can be found in many other social animals. Morality-enabled collaboration reached its epitome in Homo sapiens allowing our species to thrive and to bring civilization to its present state -- such as it is. While other books have addressed the biological origins of morality, this one goes much further into the mechanisms of evolution and into what cultural-evolution and specifically religion did with morality as it arose biologically. This book makes the point that although cultural evolution, with religion as a component, gave us ways to reinforce our inborn sense of morality, but religion has also been divisive. Religious “fences” keep us from seeing ourselves as part of one family of humankind. Today, religious differences and the tendency of blind faith to thwart critical thinking and to work its way into and confound politics and even education stand in the way of humankind’s continued moral-maturation." ]

[ "For most young people growing up in Africa, Europe and the Western World in general holds the promise of a happy life – a paradise on earth. And when an opportunity to travel to Europe offers itself, resisting is impossible. Human traffickers understand this fact, and use it to exploit people as much as they can. This scenario is the backdrop for A Gamble With Death: a cautionary story of one young man who, like thousands of other Africans, ignorantly embarked on a dangerous journey from Africa to Europe through the Sahara Desert and the Mediterranean Sea, on a journey that left thousands dead. A journey he was told would last less than 2 weeks became a difficult, horrifying and dehumanizing journey that covered a span of years. His ignorance became a crime and for many, a death sentence as they all gambled with death. This is a true life story about what he lived through and what he saw: hell." ]

[ "Real Analysis Through Modern Infinitesimals provides a course on mathematical analysis based on Internal Set Theory (IST) introduced by Edward Nelson in 1977. After motivating IST through an ultrapower construction, the book provides a careful development of this theory representing each external class as a proper class. This foundational discussion, which is presented in the first two chapters, includes an account of the basic internal and external properties of the real number system as an entity within IST. In its remaining fourteen chapters, the book explores the consequences of the perspective offered by IST as a wide range of real analysis topics are surveyed. The topics thus developed begin with those usually discussed in an advanced undergraduate analysis course and gradually move to topics that are suitable for more advanced readers. This book may be used for reference, self-study, and as a source for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses." ]

Havana-born Caroll García knows this firsthand.García uses his knowledge to recount the adventures and experiences of two friends, Alex and Henry, who supported the Cuban dissidents in developing the civil society on the island. Belonging to a generation betrayed and deceived by the political outrages suffered by the Cuban people, Alex and Henry renew their friendship when they reunite and reminisce about their youthful experiences-some pleasant, others bitter and full of violence.The two friends shared an adventure that began in San Juan, Puerto Rico, followed by a trip to Grand Cayman Island, and ended in Cuba after a clandestine voyage through the Caribbean Sea. Alex and Henry participated in extraordinary events that changed Cuba's history. It ain't easy, Comandante unfolds on a rich background of local folklore and customs, and is full of clandestine action, mystery, and deceit." ]

Krishtalka’s prose is powerfully versatile, alternating between the sort of terse, unsentimental phrasing that one would expect from a detective story and poetical elegance.”~ Kirkus ReviewsPaleontologist turned private investigator, Harry Przewalski, excavates the dirty underbelly of people’s lives, unearthing sexual betrayals, treachery, fraud and murder buried beneath the science of petrified shards, skin and bones. Ultimately, he must face a brutal killing in his own past, when he fled to a desert war and came back with a gun and a license to detect. A famous, 140-year-old museum diorama is vandalized––it depicts the ferocious attack by two lions on a North African courier crossing the Sahara on a dromedary. The belly of the taxidermied camel has been sliced open and a bundle removed, shedding bits of flesh from a child. Harry is hired to investigate the macabre history of the exhibit. The taxidermist has a grisly past: a sexual affair, a lover’s betrayal, a lurid trial, and graves in Botswana and Tunisia plundered for human dioramas. The camel driver’s skull and skin are mounted under his clothing. In a Paris museum, a dead archaeologist, a bloodstained journal, and the theft of a Neanderthal child’s skull and teeth lead Harry to the stolen bundle––a scientific bombshell worth killing for in a murderous race for fame." ]

[ "In a world of acronyms and abbreviations, JDBC is one worth knowing. It's the application programming interface that bridges the gap between sophisticated relational database management systems and Java, a programming language uniquely suited to today's intranet and Internet networking environments." ]

[ "Amazon.com Review", "This valuable guide provides both the academic side--designing databases--and the practical side--coding interfaces--of enterprise applications involving JDBC. Van Haecke goes into much detail on designing database applications, a process he calls identifying the \"business logic\" of a program. He talks a little bit about three-tier database design (though dbAnywhere and similar programs get glossed over) and discusses CORBA from a conceptual point of view. Van Haecke also covers Remote Method Invocation (RMI) and security in more depth than most books offer; the automotive-flavored sample application included for RMI is hardly typical of the usual dry fare employed to explain the subject. Van Haecke, a Sun Microsystems consultant, shines when he explains complicated database topics. This book includes a great discussion of serving multimedia from a database, including a complete sample application for that purpose. All the source code appears on the companion CD-ROM along with Bongo 1.0, JDK 1.1.1, and some other tools. If you already have a decent grasp of JDBC and want guidance through the hairier aspects of Java database work, this is the book for you." ]

All rights reserved.", "PrologueTwilightThe sun dropped behind the peaks.The last rays of warmth touched the earth and only the rosy afterglow of the day remained. From the east, indigo darkness approached rapidly. The wind cut through the hills like a sharp-edged blade, as if spring were only a faintly remembered dream. Winter's ice still clung to shadow-protected pockets, ice that cracked loudly under the heels of heavy boots. Out of the evening's darkness three figures entered the firelight.The old witch looked up, her dark eyes widening slightly at the sight of the three. She knew the figure on the left, the broad, mute warrior with the shaved head and single long scalp lock. He had come once before, seeking magic signs for strange rites. Though he was a powerful chieftain, she had sent him away, for his nature was evil, and while issues of good and evil seldom held any significance for the witch, there were limits even for her. Besides, she had little love for any moredhel, especially one who had cut out his own tongue as a sign of devotion to dark powers.The mute warrior regarded her with the blue eyes unusual for one of his race. He was broader of shoulders than most, even for one of the mountain clans, who tended to be more powerful of arm and shoulder than their forest-dwelling cousins. The mute wore golden circle rings in his large, upswept ears, painful to affix, as the moredhel had no lobes. Upon each cheek were three scars, mystic symbols whose meaning was not lost upon the witch.The mute made a sign to his companions, and the one to the far right seemed to nod. It was difficult to judge, for he was clothed in an all-concealing robe, with a deep hood revealing no features. Both hands were hidden in voluminous sleeves that were kept together. As if speaking from a great distance, the cloaked figure said, \"We seek a reading of signs.\" His voice was sibilant, almost a hiss, and there was a note of something alien in it. One hand appeared and the witch pulled away, for it was misshapen and scaled, as if the owner possessed talons covered with snakeskin. She then knew the creature for what it was: a priest of the Pantathian serpent people. Compared to the serpent people, the moredhel were held in high regard by the witch.She turned her attention from the end figures and studied the one in the center. He stood a full head taller than the mute and was even more impressive in bulk. He slowly removed a bearskin robe, the bear's skull providing a helm for his own head, and cast it aside. The old witch gasped, for he was the most striking moredhel she had seen in her long life. He wore the heavy trousers, vest, and knee-high boots of the hill clans, and his chest was bare. His powerfully muscled body gleamed in the firelight, and he leaned forward to study the witch. His face was almost frightening in its near-perfect beauty. But what had caused her to gasp, more than his awesome appearance, was the sign upon his chest.\"Do you know me?\" he asked the witch.She nodded. \"I know who you appear to be.\"He leaned even farther forward, until his face was lit from below by the fire, revealing something in his nature. \"I am who I appear to be,\" he whispered with a smile. She felt fear, for behind his handsome features, behind the benign smile, she saw the visage of evil, evil so pure it defied endurance. \"We seek a reading of signs,\" he repeated, his voice the sound of ice-clear madness.She chuckled. \"Even one so mighty has limits?\"The handsome moredhel's smile slowly vanished. \"One may not foretell one's own future.\"Resigned to her own likely lot, she said, \"I require silver.\"The moredhel nodded. The mute dug a coin from out of his belt pouch and tossed it upon the floor before the witch. Without touching it, she prepared some ingredients in a stone cup. When the concoction was ready, she poured it upon the silver. A hissing came, both from the coin and from the serpent man. A green-scaled claw began to make signs, and the witch snapped, \"None of that nonsense, snake. Your hot-land magic will only cant my reading.\"The serpent man was restrained by a gentle touch and smile from the center figure, who nodded at the witch.In croaking tones, her throat dry with fear, the witch said, \"Say you then truly: What would you know?\" She studied the hissing silver coin, covered now in bubbling green slime.\"Is it time? Shall I do now that which was ordained?\"A bright green flame sprang from the coin and danced. The witch followed its movement closely, her eyes seeing something within the flame none but she could divine. After a while she said, \"The Bloodstones form the Cross of Fire. That which you are, you are. That which you are born to do . . . do!\" The last word was a half-gasp.Something in the witch's expression was unexpected, for the moredhel said, \"What else, crone?\"\"You stand not unopposed, for there is one who is your bane. You stand not alone, for behind you . . . I do not understand.\" Her voice was weak, faint.\"What?\" The moredhel showed no smile this time.\"Something . . . something vast, something distant, something evil.\"The moredhel paused to consider; turning to the serpent man, he spoke softly yet commandingly. \"Go then, Cathos. Employ your arcane skills and discover where this seat of weakness lies. Give a name to our enemy. Find him.\"The serpent man bowed awkwardly and shambled out of the cave. The moredhel turned to his mute companion and said, \"Raise the standards, my general, and gather the loyal clans upon the plains of Isbandia, beneath the towers of Sar-Sargoth. Raise highest that standard I have chosen for my own, and let all know we begin that which was ordained. You shall be my battlemaster, Murad, and all shall know you stand highest among my servants. Glory and greatness now await.\"Then, when the mad snake has identified our quarry, lead forth the Black Slayers. Let those whose souls are mine serve us by seeking out our enemy. Find him! Destroy him! Go!\"The mute nodded once and left the cave. The moredhel with the sign on his chest faced the witch. \"Then, human refuse, do you know what dark powers move?\"\"Aye, messenger of destruction, I know. By the Dark lady, I know.\"He laughed, a cold humorless sound. \"I wear the sign,\" he said, pointing to the purple birthmark upon his chest, which seemed to glow angrily in the firelight. It was clear that his was no simple disfigurement but some sort of magic talisman, for it formed a perfect silhouette of a dragon in flight. He raised his finger, pointing upward. \"I have the power.\" He made a circular motion with his upraised finger. \"I am the foreordained. I am destiny.\"The witch nodded, knowing death raced to embrace her. She suddenly mouthed a complex incantation, her hands moving furiously through the air. A gathering of power manifested itself in the cave and a strange keening filled the night. The warrior before her simply shook his head. She cast a spell at him, one that should have withered him where he stood. He remained, grinning at her evilly. \"You seek to test me with your puny arts, seer?\"Seeing no effect, she slowly closed her eyes and sat erect, awaiting her fate. The moredhel pointed his finger at her and a silver shaft of light came forth, striking the witch. She shrieked in agony, then exploded into white-hot fire. For an instant her dark form writhed within the inferno, then the flames vanished.The moredhel cast a quick glance at the ashes upon the floor, forming the outline of a body. With a deep laugh he gathered up his robe and left the cave.Outside, his companions waited, holding his horse. Far below he could see the camp of his band, still small but destined to grow. He mounted and said, \"To Sar-Sargoth!\" With a jerk on the reins he spun his horse and led the mute and the serpent priest down the hillside.", "From the Paperback edition.", "--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.", "About the Author", "Raymond E.

[ "In 1999 the Xunta de Galicia called an International Architecture Competition to build the City of Culture of Galicia on Mount Gaiás in Santiago de Compostela. Twelve proposals by renowned national and international architects' studios were initially submitted to this competition for ideas. The architects who submitted their ideas for defining the architectural complex and its uses were Ricardo Bofill, Peter Eisenman, Manuel Gallego Jorreto, Annette Gigon and Mike Guyer, Steve Holl, Rem Koolhaas, Daniel Libeskind, Juan Navarro Baldeweg, Jean Nouvel, Dominique Perrault, César Portela, and Santiago Calatrava (who later withdrew his project). Out of all these ideas, the final project to be selected for development was the design by Eisenman Architects, as - to quote the Jury - it was, “unique both in concept and plasticity, and exceptionally in tune with the site's location“. Located in Santiago de Compostela, a historic city that is an emblem of the European cultural tradition and was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1985, the City of Culture of Galicia stands on top of Mount Gaiás, a formidable architectural landmark for the new century. Conceived as a large-scale cultural hub devoted to hosting the best of cultural expressions of Galicia, Spain, Europe, Latin America and the World, this new “city” will contribute with its inclusive and pluralistic approach to meeting the challenges of the information and knowledge society. Its unique buildings, connected up by streets and plazas equipped with state-of-the-art technology, create a space of excellence for reflection, debate and actions oriented towards the preservation of heritage and memory, towards study, research, experimentation, production and dissemination in the field of literature and thinking, music, drama, dance, film, the visual arts, audiovisual creation and communication. This book invites readers to stroll around a new city where past, present, and future cultures coexist: “A new cultural Babylon will open its doors to readers.”" ]

I correlate these wonderful stories with highlights of relevant American history--black and white. My husband, Tom, and I have rich legacies of captivating recorded family history that has survived. We can date his freeborn family back before 1779 and my enslaved family to 1815. When I was a little girl, it was always a special event when I sat with my grandaunt Florena Bell Brown on her sunporch to hear the ancient stories about our family. This rich oral family history impacted and inspired my life because my family was \"up from slavery\" and found American prosperity in such profound ways that it will amaze you. Knowing where we as a family came from gave me an appreciation for our history and the struggle to achieve goals and to never give up the way they didn't. I also found out how we fit into God's divine plan as one of the oldest continuously living things on earth called--the family!", "Working with such giants in the art, communication, and collectibles industries--such as the Hallmark Greeting Card Company and the Franklin Mint--gave me enormous comprehensive experiences early in my art career. Perhaps you might recognize some of the art that I showcase from my portfolio that also advances my storyline like a documentary. Through C. R. Gibson, Thomas Nelson, Enesco, American Express, Seeds Evangelical, and many other major corporations, my illustrations have appeared and been collected in millions and millions of forms and homes throughout the years." ]

[ "Jefferson Finis Davis (1808-1889) was an American politician who served as President of the Confederate States of America for its entire history from 1861 to 1865 during the American Civil War. During his presidency, Davis was never able to find a strategy that would defeat the larger, more industrially developed Union. Davis's insistence on independence, even in the face of crushing defeat, prolonged the war, and while not exactly disgraced, he was displaced in Southern affection after the war by the leading general, Robert E. Lee. After Davis was captured in 1865, he was charged with treason (although never convicted) and was stripped of his eligibility to run for public office. A West Point graduate, Davis prided himself on the military skills he gained in the Mexican-American War as a colonel of a volunteer regiment, and as U. S. Secretary of War under Franklin Pierce. As Davis explained in his memoir, The Rise and Fall of the Confederate Government (1881) he believed that each State was sovereign and had an unquestionable right to secede from the Union." ]

[ "This set of articles about Market Drayton in 1851 is the collective work of the members of the Local History Group of Market Drayton U3A: Meriel Blower, Peter Brown, Kunigunda Gough, David Jenkins, Bill Page, Ian Picton-Robinson, Grace Russell, Chris Sharp and Ros Wells. Each member of the Group chose a subject or subjects which particularly interested them and conducted their research in their own way. The articles were then lightly edited by Peter Brown, mainly to minimise duplication and to try to ensure consistency. This book does not pretend to be a compre¬hensive portrait of the Market Drayton area in 1851. Many relevant topics have been omitted or covered only sketchily — sometimes because the source material was not readily available, sometimes because nobody in the Group possessed the necessary background knowledge or interest. Nevertheless, we hope the reader will find much of interest about the town and its surrounding area in a time of transition." ]

[ "Augustinus", "(354–430 CE), son of a pagan, Patricius of Tagaste in North Africa, and his Christian wife Monica, while studying in Africa to become a rhetorician, plunged into a turmoil of philosophical and psychological doubts in search of truth, joining for a time the Manichaean society. He became a teacher of grammar at Tagaste, and lived much under the influence of his mother and his friend Alypius. About 383 he went to Rome and soon after to Milan as a teacher of rhetoric, being now attracted by the philosophy of the Sceptics and of the Neo-Platonists. His studies of Paul’s letters with Alypius and the preaching of Bishop Ambrose led in 386 to his rejection of all sensual habits and to his famous conversion from mixed beliefs to Christianity. He returned to Tagaste and there founded a religious community. In 395 or 396 he became Bishop of Hippo, and was henceforth engrossed with duties, writing and controversy. He died at Hippo during the successful siege by the Vandals. From Augustine’s large output the Loeb Classical Library offers that great autobiography the Confessions (in two volumes); City of God (seven volumes), which unfolds God’s action in the progress of the world’s history, and propounds the superiority of Christian beliefs over pagan in adversity; and a selection of Letters which are important for the study of ecclesiastical history and Augustine’s relations with other theologians." ]

[ "Rocambole is a mystery adventure epic by the French author, Pierre Alexis Ponson du Terrail (1829 - 1871). It is the story of an adventurer and criminal who started life on the wrong side of the law, redeemed himself, and then devoted his life to doing good. The Rocambole saga has been acknowledged for transitioning the old-fashioned gothic novel to modern heroic fiction thus starting the genres of adventure crime fiction novels. Before there was a Sherlock Holmes, Scarlet Pimpernel, Hercule Poirot, the Saint, Arsene Lupin, and James Bond, there was Rocambole. The stories take the reader back to the nineteenth century, an era of elaborate styles and extravagant wealth as well as extreme poverty and ghetto life. Most of the stories take place in nineteenth century London and Paris with their cobblestone streets, carriage traffic, gas-lit narrow streets, and shadowy characters. Other stories take the reader to imperial Spain, tsarist Russia, revolutionary Ireland, exotic India, and pioneering Australia. The epic itself is the personal account of a young boy who grew to become an old man and who led in evil and good lives in stories full of interesting characters, creative plots, heroic adventures, and exciting cliffhangers. It will be hard not to dislike Rocambole’s early life despite his charismatic personality just as it would be hard not to admire him when the innocent love of one who thought he was her brother transforms him to embracing a nobler life. The original Rocambole stories filled seventeen books. This is the only English adaptation of the full story. It will be published in three volumes. The first volume, The Dark Side, tells of Rocambole’s sinister life and introduces all the characters who were Rocambole’s enemies, several of whom became life-long friends after his redemption. It will be followed by the second volume, Redemption, and the third volume, Crusade. This adaptation maintains all the major plots of the original saga but eliminates minor subplots and characters and replaces them with original material to bridge the gaps. A short video trailer can be seen on YouTube under the title: “Rocambole Lives”." ]
