Touchy Subjects: Stories
["Emma Donoghue"]

In this sparkling collection of nineteen stories, the bestselling author of Slammerkin returns to contemporary affairs, exposing the private dilemmas that result from some of our most public controversies. A man finds God and finally wants to father a child-only his wife is now forty-two years old. A coach's son discovers his sexuality on the football field. A roommate's bizarre secret liberates a repressed young woman. From the unforeseen consequences of a polite social lie to the turmoil caused by the hair on a woman's chin, Donoghue dramatizes the seemingly small acts upon which our lives often turn. Many of these stories involve animals and what they mean to us, or babies and whether to have them; some replay biblical plots in modern contexts. With characters old, young, straight, gay, and simply confused, Donoghue dazzles with her range and her ability to touch lightly but delve deeply into the human condition.

Torture Me!
["Octave Mirbeau"]

Torture Me! A Dark Depraved Tale of Sin and Sex in the Garden of Evil Ecstasy is a deliciously disturbing erotic novel, recognised as a cult classic of Sadomasochism. The portrayal of ancient methods of torture as an artform - is both beautiful and horrifically shocking.The story begins with a philosophical discussion about the role of murder in society. Many of the ideas are confronting and unpopular, but potent with the horrible truth of human nature behind them. The writer, Octave Mirbeau, (an atheist and anarchist) constantly challenges the reader through out the novel - with his scathing view of humanity, the hypocrisy, corruption, evil of the world and human condition. He explores the dual nature of life - love is death, beauty is pain, and torture is ecstasy.This is the twisted tale of a young Frenchman (a corrupted politician) who meets the beautiful (on the outside) aristocratic Clara, who invites him to China. Clara has a fetishistic desire of death and torture - she sees it as beautiful and wildly sexually arousing. She seduces the Frenchman with her wicked enchanting web and takes him to the Torture Garden. This is an unreal place of beauty and death, which grows amazing exotic flowers in soil fertile from the blood and bones of the executed. The man wants to leave but is too weak, he is captivated by Clara's physical beauty but is sickened her dark nature. He begins to see the 'civilised' world as a thinly disguised veil of the Torture Garden (thus the garden serves as an allegory to the brutal, cruel tendencies of humanity and corrupt decay of the modern world).Sexually explicit, with hardcore sexual torture, violence and bondage - this book shocked the world when first published 100 years ago. Intelligently written, with great artistic and philosophical merit, Torture Me! is an unique experience - intended to both arouse and disturb.- This Kindle version is beautifully illustrated with unique vintage erotica pictures.- Includes Linked table of contents.- Bonus addition of three excellent essays on The Art of Sex - On the biological and cultural evolution of human sexuality and how we can use this knowledge to enhance our sexual relationships.FROM THE "A light flashed in her green pupils, and in a low, almost raucous voice, she 'I'll teach you terrible things... divine things... you'll know at last what love really is! I promise you'll descend with me to the very depths of the mystery of love... and death!' And smiling an evil smile which made a shiver run through my bones, she said 'Poor baby! You thought yourself a great debauchee... a great rebel! Ah! your little remorse... do you remember! And now your soul is as timid as a little child's!'.. The smells that arose from the crowd - smells of the latrine and the slaughterhouse, the stink of corpses and the perfumes of living flesh - nauseated me and chilled me to the marrow. .. She was unrestrained and delighted in the midst of this crowd whose odor she inhaled, and to whose repugnant embraces she submitted with a sort of swooning lust. She offered her body - all her lithe and vibrant body - to the brutality, the blows, and the clawing. Her white skin was now a glowing pink; her eyes reflected a languid thrill of sensual delight; her lips were swollen, like firm buds ready to blossom."BETTER HOTTER SEX Reading erotic literature cultivates the sexual side of our minds and stimulates our sexual relationships. We have further developed this 'art of sex' by including three excellent essays on the biological and cultural evolution of human sexuality and (most importantly) how we can use this knowledge to enhance our sexual relationships.

Ben-Gurion's Spy
["Shabtai Teveth"]
4

1
Ben-Gurion's Spy is a riveting exploration of the scandalous Lavon affair in Israel, which in 1963 toppled the government and ended the political life of David Ben-Gurion, the nation's founding father. In the early 1950s, a team of Israeli agents was ordered - without prior knowledge of either the cabinet or the military high command - to stage a series of bombings of American and British institutions in Egypt, in an attempt to forestall Great Britain's planned withdrawal from the Suez. Betrayed by their commander, the agents were captured and put on trial in Cairo. Who gave the orders for the sabotage attempts? Was it defense minister Pinhas Lavon, Ben-Gurion's hand-picked successor? Or was it Director of Military Intelligence Benyamin Givly, a cunning and ruthlessly ambitious officer? Both denied responsibility, and their dispute turned into a charade of character assassination, forgery, cover-up, and vendetta that forced Lavon's resignation in 1955. Ben-Gurion's Spy explores the political implications of the Lavon affair, demonstrating how the episode helped to usher in Menahem Begin's Likud - whose doctrine claims the whole of Palestine - and to initiate a radical shift in defense policy from restraint to violent, sometimes reckless, retribution. Unlike similar incidents like Iran-Contra or the Dreyfus affair, the Israeli analogue saw no judicial inquiry or public hearings, nor any published documents. Teveth fills in the vital information, employing classified documents including minutes of secret cabinet and military tribunal investigations, as well as interviews with key actors and the private correspondence of Givly and his doting secretary, Dalia Carmel.

"These nine essays demonstrate that those who see a conflict between religion and science, between Charles Darwin's vision of the world and that embraced by many deeply religious individuals are simply not looking very clearly. As Fredric Muir so eloquently says in the introduction, 'the spirit of liberal religion is enhanced and deepened by Darwin's life and thought.' Savor these essays and come to a fuller understanding of both religion and science." - Michael Zimmerman, founder and director, The Clergy Letter Project"This volume illuminates the spiritual as well as intellectual achievement implicit in Darwin's great paradigm shift. By tracing our essential connections to all living creatures, the entire natural world, and the most basic stuff of the universe, these essays offer a grounded self-understanding for human beings that is both radiant with wonder and appropriately humble in our finitude. All varieties of humanists, as well as liberal religionists in general, will find inspiration here." - Dr. Kendyl Gibbons, senior minister, First Unitarian Society of Minneapolis, co-dean, Humanist Institute."Darwin gave us a new a new lens through which to view the universe itself - an enlarged sense of history and destiny. These essays challenge us to engage his legacy from a religious perspective. This volume is a plea for a faith rooted in our best knowledge of the universe and our position in it." - David E. Bumbaugh, professor of ministry, Meadville Lombard Theology Minister Emeritus, The Unitarian Church in Summit, New JerseyNine prominent liberal religious thinkers examine Darwin's contributions to theology, spirituality and ethics. The editor,Fredric Muir, is a Unitarian Universalist minister and the author of several works on liberal religion, including A Reason for Hope: Liberation Theology Confronts a Liberal Faith and Heretics' Faith: A Vocabulary for Religious Liberals.

Looking at the trend today, you will observe that almost 84% of the world’s population is suffering from high cholesterol levels in their bloodstream. Yes, that is arguable a high figure for a deadly condition as cholesterol… but consequence is even deadlier! And the implication of this is that most people around you are typically at risk of some kind of cardiac condition like heart attack or heart failure to say the least! Well, the bad news is that an average person is typically unaware of this fact since they don’t even know their cholesterol level neither does it occur to them to take it as a priority to know whether their cholesterol level is high or not. Now, you need to understand that there are five essentially different methods of getting the actual reading of your cholesterol level; these include Low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), Total Cholesterol Levels (TCL), TCL/HDL ratio, and LDL/HDL ratio. These readings are typically recorded using milligrams per deciliter as a unit of measurement. This is done in a tabular form to indicate the ideal and non-ideal measurements. This is because you don’t want to get confused when analyzing these measurements. Nevertheless, it is advisable to pay a visit to your doctor who will put you through how to monitor your cholesterol levels and maintain the ideal levels. Okay! Let’s look at the actual numbers involved here, your ideal cholesterol level should in reality not be above 200mg/dL, your borderline or marginal line level should be between 200 to 240 mg/dL while the total risk level should be above 240 mg/dL. Note that these figures only represent the total or should I say the overall cholesterol levels in your system. However, if you want the details of each cholesterol levels, then you ought to pay a visit to your physician who is in the best position to give you a thorough explanation. Anyway, get this book NOW! ...for in this book, you are going to be exposed to all the knotty details you need to understand for you to be able to manage the whole issues that arises when your cholesterol is up and the many tips on how to put it in check for a healthy long life without complications or any disaster!

The Bee Tree is a magical story about giant bees, about trees that are higher than your eye can see in a forest that is more dark than light, and about a young boy named Nizam who soon will become a man. Nizam lives in a village near the rainforest preserve surrounding PeduLake, just below the Thai border in Peninsular Malaysia. His grandfather Pak-Teh is the leader of the honey hunting clan. It is Pak-Teh who has the high honor of climbing the tall Tualang tree in the annual hunt to gather honey from the nests of giant honey bees. But Pak-Teh is getting older and is now ready to prepare someone to take his place. He believes that Nizam is the one. Even though Nizam has climbed the mighty Tualang—the bee tree—in the daylight, he has never done it at night. Will he be brave enough? On the first moonless night of the honey hunt, Nizam and Pak-Teh and the other honey hunters enter the dark rainforest. Pak-Teh starts the hunt with a prayer and a traditional story. Then he begins to climb. Nizam follows. Can he climb that high and not be afraid? Will the angry bees sting him? At the top, Nizam and Pak-Teh use the honey hunters’ secret to keep from being stung, while their clansmen below soothe the bees with chanting. After a week of gathering honey in the nights, the clan returns home to celebrate their sweet and miraculous golden harvest. At this feast, Pak-Teh honors Nizam with an important announcement. This is a collaboration between three remarkable a scientist who has been fascinated with insects since the third grade; a writer who believes that writing children’s books is her way of building a better world; and an artist who never stops sketching and drawing as he travels. Meet the creators of The Bee Tree : Stephen Buchmann has traveled all over the world studying bees. He is a member of the entomology department faculty at the University of Arizona, and the author/co-author of 150 scientific papers and 8 books (including The Forgotten Pollinators and Letters from the Hive ). He is active in international pollination research, conservation and policies to protect the world’s pollinators and the plants they pollinate. He served on a National Academy of Science committee investigating the status of pollinators in North America. Diana Cohn is an award winning children’s book author. Her books include ¡Sí, Se Puede! / Yes, We Can! (Cinco Puntos Press); Dream Carver (Chronicle Books); and Mr. Goethe’s Garden (Bell Pond Books). She is a hobbyist beekeeper with a deep interest in pollination ecology. She first met Steve Buchmann while working on a radio documentary on the pollination crisis in America. As a result of their meeting they co-founded The Bee Works , an organization dedicated to public education about pollination ecology. Paul Mirocha ’s illustrations first appeared in Gathering the Desert by Gary Paul Nabhan, winner of the John Burroughs Medal for natural history in 1985. After 13 years as a graphic designer for the University of Arizona’s Office of Arid Lands Studies, Paul left to become a full-time illustrator, producing over 20 children’s picture books and pop-ups as well as modern nature writing, among them High Tide in Tucson, Prodigal Summer , and Small Wonder , by Barbara Kingsolver. Paul has made five trips to Malaysia. His paintings in The Bee Tree  come directly from his sketchbook and memories from those experiences.

Healthy Vision: Prevent and Reverse Eye Disease through Better Nutrition
["Neal Adams"]

More than 180 million Americans have a problem with their vision. Most believe there's not much they can do on their own to change how much (or how little) they see. Now there is hope. In the past decade, an overwhelming number of clinical studies have shown that eating specific nutrients can help maintain vision well into old age, alleviate eye conditions, and even reverse the progress of diseases. In this book, top ophthalmologist Dr. Neal Adams uses clear, accessible language to translate research from hundreds of clinical studies in ophthalmology and nutrition to show how we can restore and maintain eyesight by changing our diet. The solution is simple: just naturally grown foods, with nutrients clinically proven to target the components of the eye affected by disease and/or age. The book explains how the eye functions and what nutrients influence these physiological processes, and includes tailored, easy-to-understand instruction on which foods and nutrients will target the reader's specific concerns. Particularly helpful for the 150 million Americans who visit their eye doctors annually as well as the 95 percent of Americans over 40 at risk for future vision loss.

William Shakespeare: An Intimate Look Into The Life Of The Most Brilliant Writer In The History Of The English Language
["Michael W. Simmons"]
4.09

2
William Shakespeare was the most brilliant writer in the history of the English language. But his life is a complete mystery to us. No biographies were written for almost a hundred years after his death. His friends, family, and all those who knew him as a poet in London’s theatrical scene died before anyone could ask who was Shakespeare? What was he like? What were his habits, his amusements, his passions? Nearly the only answers we have are those we can divine from reading his plays and poems. Shakespeare’s uncanny ability to grasp the technical languages of skilled professions makes it difficult to judge what precisely he got up to during his “lost years”—the two periods of life in which he disappears from the historical record entirely. In this book, you will learn what it is we know for certain about William Shakespeare, and by delving into the plays, you will discover all that can be surmised about his uneasy relationship with authority, the religious conflicts in his family, his relationship with the father who fulfilled his lifelong dream to become a gentleman, and his own unexpected to become a wealthy, respectable country landlord in his hometown of Stratford.

Sir Arthur Thomas Quiller-Couch was a Cornish writer, who published under the pen name of Q. He published his Dead Man's Rock (a romance in the vein of Stevenson's Treasure Island) in 1887, and he followed this up with Troy Town (1888) and The Splendid Spur (1889). After some journalistic experience in London, mainly as a contributor to the Speaker, in 1891 he settled at Fowey in Cornwall. He published in 1896 a series of critical articles, Adventures in Criticism, and in 1898 he completed Robert Louis Stevenson's unfinished novel, St Ives. With the exception of the parodies entitled Green Bays: Verses and Parodies (1893), his poetical work is contained in Poems and Ballads (1896). In 1895 he published an anthology from the sixteenth and seventeenth-century English lyrists, The Golden Pomp, followed in 1900 by an equally successful Oxford Book of English Verse, 1250-1900 (1900). He was made a Bard of Gorseth Kernow in 1928, taking the Bardic name Marghak Cough ('Red Knight').

The central theme of this study is Artin's braid group and the many ways that the notion of a braid has proved to be important in low-dimensional topology. In Chapter 1 the author is concerned with the concept of a braid as a group of motions of points in a manifold. She studies structural and algebraic properties of the braid groups of two manifolds, and derives systems of defining relations for the braid groups of the plane and sphere. In Chapter 2 she focuses on the connections between the classical braid group and the classical knot problem. After reviewing basic results she proceeds to an exploration of some possible implications of the Garside and Markov theorems. Chapter 3 offers discussion of matrix representations of the free group and of subgroups of the automorphism group of the free group. These ideas come to a focus in the difficult open question of whether Burau's matrix representation of the braid group is faithful. Chapter 4 is a broad view of recent results on the connections between braid groups and mapping class groups of surfaces. Chapter 5 contains a brief discussion of the theory of "plats." Research problems are included in an appendix.

Emily Throne was an innocent, fun-loving 22-year-old recent college graduate living the good life in sunny Orange County, California; but misplaced trust in a deviant, drug-running boyfriend led her into a dark corner of the O.C. underworld known as Orange County Jail. There was the extraordinarily-troubled Ardith Cribbs, who shot her husband to death while he was handcuffed naked to their bed; the petite, savvy and wealthy Lisa Peng, who stabbed her husband’s mistress to death and smothered their love child in a brutal attack; friendly but rageful prostitute Whitney Millano, whose mother sold her for drugs when she was two and whose father then decapitated her mother; and then there was Tracy Russell, arrested for bestiality after twice forcing sex upon her neighbour male dog. These and other complex and fascinating women come to life on the pages of BAD GIRLS IN A MAD WORLD, a factual account of author Emily Throne’s two years behind bars in Orange County, California.

On July 21, 1969, Mattie McEnroe Connors watches a man walk on the moon for the first time, and is moved to reveal her own story―who better to receive it than the enigmatic, long-awaited guest in her living room? Mattie unfolds a tale that is deeply intertwined with that of her sister-in-law, Kathy Hummel Connors. Mattie's husband's brother surprised the whole family when, shortly after the attack on Pearl Harbor, he showed up at the train station of the small Ohio town the Connors call home, bringing Kathy as his new bride. When Josh left to fight in the war, Kathy―fiercely independent―and Mattie―deeply devoted to her family―had to try to trust and understand each other. From the 1918 flu epidemic through four wars and on to the turbulent sixties, these two ordinary Midwestern women and their families confront social and political change, as well as devastating personal loss. Looking back at her life, Mattie must ask―Is it too late? After so long, can she make up for all that has been left unsaid?

Once she would have thought so, but not now that she’s fallen in love with Sonny, a man she knows considers honesty far more precious than good fish tales.

["Clarke Morgan"]

null
Providing a ground-breaking investigation into the changing ideas of kinship in the Middle East, the author documents Islamic responses to assisted reproductive technologies such as "in vitro" fertilization through fieldwork in Lebanon and the extensive reading of Islamic legal texts. This ethnography is brought to bear on the latest theories of Middle Eastern kinship, as well as the "new kinship" studies in anthropology generally. Lebanon is home to both Sunni and Shiite Muslims, and the book thus provides a full account of both schools of legal in the case of the latter, a number of the leading Shiite authorities are considered, including Ayatollah Khamene'i, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Lebanon's own Ayatollah Fadlallah, and Ayatollah Sistani of Iraq. The debates centre on the moral propriety of such controversial procedures as the use of donor sperm and eggs and surrogacy arrangements, allowed by some authorities in surprising and innovative legal arguments that challenge common stereotypes of Islamic law, and lead the author to question conventional contrasts between "liberal" and Islamic notions of moral freedom.

Over de tijd
["Ileen Montijn"]

De mens zit vastgeklonken aan de tijd met alles wat hij is, weet en heeft. Het leven is een tijdelijk feest. Maar de mens heeft ook een ziel, en daarmee haakt hij vol hoogmoed en verlangen naar wat buiten de tijd het eeuwige. Ze kunnen wel zeggen dat de tijd 'het zal leren' of 'alle wonder heelt', toch is de Westerse beschaving niet gebouwd op berusting. eerder op het tegendeel daarvan. Kunst en wetenschap, liefde en literatuur weerspiegelen vooral een strijd met de tijd. Nu eens droomt de mens van een verloren paradijs, dan weer kan hij niet wachten tot de toekomst is begonnen. Gelieven willen samen de tijd vergeten - '... het was de nachtegaal, de leeuwerik niet...' - anderen slaan haar uit verveling dood. En het gevoel dat de klok steeds sneller tikt, dat alles tegenwoordig maar van vlug-vlug moet, is al eeuwen oud. Over de tijd gaat niet over de tijd het gaat over de omgang van de mens met de tijd. Over verlangen, verheugen en vergeten, en natuurlijk ook over het meten van de tijd. Maar de mens blijft de maat van alle dingen, en als je dat op de tijd toepast, dan blijkt telkens weer dat het wringt tussen die twee.

Wan-To was the oldest and must powerful intelligence in the universe, a being who played with star systems as a child plays with marbles. Matter occupied so tiny a part of his vast awareness that humans were utterly beneath his notice. The colonists of Newmanhome first suffered the effects of Wan-To's games when their planet's stars began to shift, the climate began to cool down, and the colony was forced into a desperate struggle to survive. Viktor Sorricaine was determined to discover what force had suddenly sent his world hurtling toward the ends of the universe. And the answer was something beyond the scope of his imagination—even if he lived for 4000 years...

Ecosystem Management: Adaptive, Community-Based Conservation
["Gary K. Meffe"]

Today's natural resource managers must be able to navigate among the complicated interactions and conflicting interests of diverse stakeholders and decisionmakers. Technical and scientific knowledge, though necessary, are not sufficient. Science is merely one component in a multifaceted world of decision making. And while the demands of resource management have changed greatly, natural resource education and textbooks have not. Until now.Ecosystem Management represents a different kind of textbook for a different kind of course. It offers a new and exciting approach that engages students in active problem solving by using detailed landscape scenarios that reflect the complex issues and conflicting interests that face today's resource managers and scientists. Focusing on the application of the sciences of ecology and conservation biology to real-world concerns, it emphasizes the intricate ecological, socioeconomic, and institutional matrix in which natural resource management functions, and illustrates how to be more effective in that challenging arena.Each chapter is rich with exercises to help facilitate problem-based learning. The main text is supplemented by boxes and figures that provide examples, perspectives, definitions, summaries, and learning tools, along with a variety of essays written by practitioners with on-the-ground experience in applying the principles of ecosystem management.Accompanying the textbook is an instructor's manual that provides a detailed overview of the book and specific guidance on designing a course around it. Download the manual here.Ecosystem Management grew out of a training course developed and presented by the authors for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service at its National Training Center in Shepherdstown, West Virginia. In 20 offerings to more than 600 natural resource professionals, the authors learned a great deal about what is needed to function successfully as a professional resource manager. The book offers important insights and a unique perspective dervied from that invaluable experience.

Juliet Darling needs a fresh start. She hopes that inheriting her great-aunt’s small rundown terraced house and landing a new job as a practice nurse will give her and her small son Charlie just such an opportunity. Her divorce from Charlie’s abusive paramedic father, Martin, is now finalised, and she longs to begin anew in the neighbouring small village of Chandler’s Gate. Her ex-husband however doesn’t plan to allow her and Charlie to escape his clutches quite so easily. Dr Neil Forrest finds his quiet and orderly life is severely disrupted both at work, with the arrival of Juliet and her new ideas about what a practice nurse should do, and at home when the accident-prone Juliet and her son move in to the house next door. Neil has deep rooted insecurities about life and relationships since the tragically premature death of his wife, Carol, four years earlier. The loss has left him clinging to his precious routines in an attempt to protect himself from further pain, resisting any hints of change both at work and at home. It takes a very special little boy, an out of control barbecue and a terrible accident before Neil and Juliet can finally get together and Neil can make Juliet his very own darling nurse.

Winner of the 2015 Brodie Award for Best LDS-Interest Fiction Secrecy is next to godliness. Tired of constantly pretending to be the perfect Mormon teenager, Jacob Crompton devises a plan to guide his fellow priests into an underground regimen of experimental sin. As they begin to dabble in behavior which is forbidden by the rules of their religion, the risks of their endeavors increase and their fears of discovery grow. The boys’ conspiracy soon threatens to careen off the rails to bring public humiliation and ecclesiastical condemnation down on them, forcing each young man to examine his loyalties, address his priorities, and ultimately confront his true beliefs.

This title features 50 different blob trees to explore feelings. This unique collection of Blob trees with all its various Blob characters is a fabulous way of opening up discussions about feelings and developing the understanding of emotions, empathy and self-awareness. The different trees show different scenarios that individuals or groups may experience personally. The book comes with guidance and suggested questions such Which Blob do you feel like? Find a Blob that interests you; Which Blob confuses you? Which Blob annoys you the most? Why? The Blobs can also be used in a less personal way so you ask which blob is happy, why do you think he is happy and discussion can evolve that way indirectly. This resource can be used with individuals or groups.

What began as an innocent love affair for one young woman, Marta Peña, in Costa Careyes, Mexico in 1969, sets in motion a series of events that spans the next thirty years. This is the story of South American drug lords Antonio Espinoza and Javier Rodriguez, and their violent quest for power. In a sweeping family saga, we meet the women who love them and the children they vow to protect at any cost. With a complex web of interconnected families, this gritty novel delves into the lives of a power hungry clan, following the rise of their business, the destructive path of their torrid and erotic love affairs, and the struggle to balance intense greed with devout family loyalty. Strong women face tragedies that test their will and their commitment to the men they passionately desire. As young girls grow into women, their traumatic pasts will drive their actions and force them to make gut-wrenching decisions. With murder, drug trafficking, dirty politics, illegal gambling, prostitution, obsessive love affairs, and family strife, The Cartel is a whirlwind in the vein of Mario Puzo's The Godfather.Excerpt from Chapter One:BOOK I1969-1976Calí, ColombiaCHAPTER ONEEMILIO ESPINOZA TRACED THE SCARS ACROSS THE undersides of his wrists, now white with time, but still visible. Not like the ones that remained on his heart. Moving to the ornate wooden armoire, he picked up a framed photograph of his brother Antonio and his lovely young wife Lydia. He stared at his brother’s face, his eyes becoming slits of hatred. He closed them, and threw the picture across the room, smashing the frame against the wall, his hands balling into fists as his vision clouded with tears. Glass shattered into small splinters across the adobe-tiled floor. Pulling the photograph from between the shards of glass, filled with rage and despair, Emilio ripped it into pieces.Antonio was the reason the scars upon his heart never faded. What a fool his brother was! Antonio had no idea of his brother’s true feelings toward him and Emilio planned to keep it that way—for now. But when he struck, Antonio would know. He would feel nothing but pain; the kind Emilio felt everyday of his life.Emilio’s plans were long term. They had to be. He knew the desired effect might not come to fruition for years, perhaps even a decade. But he had plans and they had been brewing for nearly five years, since he was merely a boy of fifteen. He had been patient for this long. He would be patient for as long as it took.He remembered that day five years ago so very clearly. ****EMILIO CAME HOME EARLY FROM SCHOOL, DITCHING BECAUSE he hadn’t studied for a test. He did not want Antonio to find out that he’d left school early, so he crept quietly up the outside back steps to the guesthouse, which was several yards away from the main quarters, a place where he knew he could hide out until the appropriate time.He smelled the candles first. He smiled, knowing he was about to get a show from his Don Juan of a brother and some beautiful young thing. Antonio was known to bring women to the guesthouse and light a few rose scented candles, put on some soft music, and then, having set the mood, complete his conquest.Emilio crawled along the balcony of the small villa, carefully rising up to peek into the window. The music playing--soft, low, romantic--the woman’s back toward him. Antonio held her close, stroking her long black hair, whispering something in her ear.That hair, the lithe body. A shiver of delight slithered through Emilio as he watched in awe. Antonio placed his hands on the woman’s shoulders and easily slipped off her dress, letting it fall to the ground. Emilio closed his eyes, ashamed to be watching. But curiosity and raging hormones opened them. The woman stood completely naked. Antonio swept her up and carried her to the bed and laid her down on the red sateen comforter.Emilio felt the first painful tug on his heart when he saw her face.

Something loud crashed over their heads, and they could hear gravel and dirt hitting the top of the truck. It happened again and again. The last sound they heard was the scrape of a shovel picking up more dirt. Then it was quiet. “Where do you think we are?” Woody asked. “It’s getting really cold in here.” Roman hit the back door with his fist. “I’ll tell you where we are. We’re buried alive!” Roman Sanchez’s life has become a nightmare. His father, a SWAT officer, has been killed in the line of duty. Then masked gunmen storm Roman’s classroom and hold him and three other boys hostage in a remote mountain cabin. There’s not much time before the kidnappers’ deadly threats are carried out. Can Roman overcome his fear—and the memory of his father’s death—to lead the boys’ desperate fight for freedom?

Aching for Beauty: Footbinding in China
["Wang Ping"]

When Wang Ping was nine years old, she secretly set about binding her feet with elastic bands. Footbinding had by then been outlawed in China, women’s feet “liberated,” but at that young age she desperately wanted the tiny feet her grandmother had–deformed and malodorous as they were. By first examining the root of her own girlhood desire, Wang unleashes a fascinating inquiry into a centuries-old custom. Aching for Beauty combines Wang’s unique perspective and remarkable literary gifts in an award-winning exploration of the history and culture surrounding footbinding. In setting out to demystify this reviled tradition, Wang probes an astonishing range of literary references, addresses the relationship between beauty and pain, and discusses the intense female bonds that footbinding fostered. Her comprehensive examination of the notions of hierarchy, femininity, and fetish bound up in the tradition places footbinding in its proper context in Chinese history and opens a window onto an intriguing culture.

Gone Girl, Gone Dad holds his ground, doesn’t move. I’m about to bowl him over with my suitcase when he finally stands back, as if we’ve just been in some stupid standoff he’s choosing to let me win. He holds the door open for me. “See you, then,” he says. I hate him so much in that moment, my stomach heaves, tightens into a giant knot. The only thing saving me is the wide open door and the freedom beyond it. From Dad, from my memories. So why does it still hurt there is no hug goodbye from her daddy for Riley James? When Riley James loses the love of her life to leukemia, she doesn’t know if she can go on alone. But the lure of the New York theater scene, her only other passion, draws her into the world of acting and stardom. Making friends—and an enemy bound to see her fail—Riley struggles to come to terms with loss, new love and her past under the floodlights of the stage.

Based on J. G. Heck's Bilder Atlas zum Convenations Lexicon, published in German in the nineteenth century, the Iconographic Encyclopaedia of Science, Literature, and Art was a monumental six-volume compilation of illustrations and information, covering an enormous range of subjects, from architecture to zoology. Among its most remarkable features were the thousands of superb steel engravings, comprising one of the most extensive pictorial archives ever published in a single work. The present book, one of three separate and independent volumes based on the rare original American edition of 1851, is devoted to nature and science. Over 170 beautifully reproduced plates contain thousands of illustrations depicting an extraordinary array of mathematical and geometrical problems; surveying instruments, astronomical maps, and instruments; planetary systems according to Ptolemy, the Egyptians, Copernicus, and others; positions of the planets; botanical illutrations of scores of plants — including seed pods, fruits, and other parts; physical and meteorological illustration demonstrating many laws and principles; numerous types of physical and chemical apparatus; animals, minerals, fossils, geological formations; human anatomy; and many other images. A descriptive table of contents is keyed to numbered illustrations on each plate. Artists, illustrators, and anyone in need of precisely rendered, royalty-free science or nature illustrations will welcome this practically inexhaustible wealth of immediately usable art.

Wer kennt das nicht? Einmal gefickt und dann abserviert. Hier kämpfen die Liegengelassen bzw. deren Gegenstücke darum, dass es nicht so endet. Achtung! Mann mit Mann. Ole und Cornelius: Cornelius ist mit der Clique verabredet. Es soll auf irgendeine Party in der Walachei gehen. Obwohl er überhaupt keine Lust hat, lässt er sich breitschlagen hinzufahren und sogar noch jemanden mitzunehmen: Ole. Einen Kerl, den er überhaupt nicht einschätzen kann. ~ * ~ Frank und Timo: Timo ist verknallt. Ausgerechnet in Frank, den Filou und Frauenschwarm, Sohn reicher Eltern. Als Frank dann auch noch mit Biggi, Timos Mitbewohnerin, eine Affäre anfängt, scheint die Katastrophe perfekt. Der weitere Verlauf ist gespickt von Missverständnissen, Joints, Alkohol und einem armen Wolfgang, der so gar nichts dafür kann, dass er da ist. ~ * ~ Wolfgang und Wladimir: Nachdem seine Mutter ihn rausgeworfen hat, wohnt Wolfgang bei Wladimir. In dessen Wohnung ist mehr als genug Platz, daher erscheint diese Lösung ideal. Leider findet Wolle immer mehr Gefallen an dem schweigsamen Mann. Er steigert sich regelrecht in eine Verliebtheit hinein, die doch von Vornherein zum Scheitern verurteilt ist. ~ * ~ Schwule Lovestorys mit expliziten Liebesszenen.

Rethinking Language, Mind, and Meaning
["Scott Soames"]
3

In this book, Scott Soames argues that the revolution in the study of language and mind that has taken place since the late nineteenth century must be rethought. The central insight in the reigning tradition is that propositions are representational. To know the meaning of a sentence or the content of a belief requires knowing which things it represents as being which ways, and therefore knowing what the world must be like if it is to conform to how the sentence or belief represents it. These are truth conditions of the sentence or belief. But meanings and representational contents are not truth conditions, and there is more to propositions than representational content. In addition to imposing conditions the world must satisfy if it is to be true, a proposition may also impose conditions on minds that entertain it. The study of mind and language cannot advance further without a conception of propositions that allows them to have contents of both of these sorts. Soames provides it. He does so by arguing that propositions are repeatable, purely representational cognitive acts or operations that represent the world as being a certain way, while requiring minds that perform them to satisfy certain cognitive conditions. Because they have these two types of content―one facing the world and one facing the mind―pairs of propositions can be representationally identical but cognitively distinct. Using this breakthrough, Soames offers new solutions to several of the most perplexing problems in the philosophy of language and mind.

Beneath the seemingly placid exterior of an idyllic, 1930's South Central Illinois farm community lies an emotional turmoil of life, death, prejudice, love and betrayal. An outstanding novel based on values, responsibility and—above all—the many faces of love.
