My First Spanking
|
["Cassandra Park"]
| 4.5 | 8 | 1 |
For sex. For discipline. For revenge. For money ... For curiosity's sake. There are many reasons and ways to give and take a spanking, and in this erotic collection edited by Cassandra Park, 13 authors write about their first spanking-the way it happened or the way they dreamed it had happened.
"My First Spanking" recalls younger, slightly more innocent days, days when we knew what we wanted, or had an idea, but were afraid to say the word. Days of meeting potential partners in quiet corners of restaurants, keeping our voices low. Days spent longing to find the person who knew how to take charge, and the nervous excitement when we knew it was about to happen at last.
The characters in this collection are not all lovers, and the spankings are not always delivered with love. But there's always compassion, love, or at the very least lust between spanker and spankee. And in just about every case, they know that their first spanking is definitely not going to be their last.

Un bébé disparaît / Danger et sentiments

["Robin Perini"]
| 3 | 2 | null |
Un bébé disparaît…, Robin Perini
L’odeur âcre de la poussière tout autour d’elle. Et le goût du sang, dans sa bouche. Alors qu’elle vient tout juste de reprendre connaissance, Raven dévisage, hébétée, l’homme qui lui fait face. Il s’appelle Daniel Adams, lui apprend-il, et l’a retrouvée par le plus grand des hasards dans une mine désaffectée où quelqu’un l’avait laissée pour morte… Bouleversée, Raven tente de trouver une explication au cauchemar éveillé dans lequel elle se sent plongée, mais ne rencontre… que le néant. Qui est-elle ? Où vit-elle ? Impossible de se le rappeler. Pourtant, soudain, un souvenir – un seul – vient la frapper avec une violence inouïe : son bébé… On lui a volé son bébé !
Danger et sentiments, Delores Fossen
Si tu parles, tu es morte.
Une lettre de menace. La troisième en trois jours. Bien qu’habituée, en tant que journaliste d’investigation, à ne pas plaire à tout le monde, Caitlyn sent que, cette fois, il faut prendre la chose au sérieux. Qui cherche à lui faire peur ? Et pourquoi ? Angoissée, convaincue que ces tentatives d’intimidation ont un rapport direct avec son passé et avec l’enquête qui vient de s’ouvrir sur l’assassinat du directeur de l’orphelinat dans lequel elle a grandi, Caitlyn ne voit qu’une protection possible pour elle : celle de Harlan McKinney, son amour de jeunesse aujourd’hui devenu policier…

Tuttle Tagalog for Kids Flash Cards Kit
|
["Imelda Fines Gasmen"]
| 4.63 | 8 | 2 |
The Tuttle Tagalog for Kids Flash Cards kit is an introductory language learning tool especially designed to help children from preschool through early elementary level acquire basic words, phrases, and sentences in Tagalog in a fun and easy way.
The flashcards can be used as a learning tool in a classroom setting, at home, or anywhere that learning takes place. The set contains a total of 64 words organized into 8 thematic categories, including: My Family, Colors, Numbers, Animals, Food, My Body, Clothes, and My Day. All of the words are illustrated—the pictures serve as effective visual aids to help children learn and remember each word's meaning. Words often reflect cultural objects and items and can be studied in any order. Learners may focus on one theme at a time or mix them up for a little more variety.
Also included in this kit is an audio CD which contains files of the words spoken—pronounced twice—once at a slow speed and then again at a normal speed for easier learning. Each word is also used in sample sentences—sentences that children would use in everyday life. Songs and other activities are also included on the free audio CD. Finally, the kit also includes a wall chart featuring the front of each card for kids to review and a learning guide for teachers and/or parents with tips, activities and more!

The Listening Book: The Soul Painting & Other Stories
|
["James Webb"]
| 4.13 | 8 | 4 |
James Webb's 'Listening Book' is a thought-provoking and beautifully written challenge to the way in which we live our lives in a complex world. Through a set of parable-like short stories, Webb offers us an innovative and creative insight into God's word and, while being engaging and captivating throughout, the stories never lose their subtlety and charm. These tales are an exploration of some of the ideas we find in the Bible, with each one carrying the essence of God's word. Webb uses his background in Bible teaching to combine both scriptural integrity with an enchanting written style to create what is, without doubt, a unique and perceptive book. In addition to being beautifully written, 'The Listening Book' is stunningly presented, with astounding photographs throughout. A joy to flick through, this book's easy-to-read style makes it accessible to both young and old alike. 'The Listening Book' aims to present some of the concepts found in Christianity in a new and intuitive way and, with themes ranging from love to evangelism, it really does have something for everyone.

Twenty-Seven
|
["Shayne Woodsmith"]
| 3.75 | 8 | 1 |
Envision a cold and calculating future world, where mankind has attained miraculous gains on the one certain, chilling fact of life that has plagued the species since the dawn of time. In this bold new landscape, humans are able to predict the body’s natural demise with a specific numerical prediction of the age of death, called a PDA. What’s more, life spans have dramatically increased, and humans can fend off the inevitable depending on how they live. That is, all humans except for one: Sophia Nolan, who, since birth, has faced a number that has idled at a grim twenty-seven. Twenty-Seven, Shayne Woodsmith’s arresting, dystopian debut novel, lays bare the plight of this one mere mortal and what her all-too-human condition suggests for a species that has been forever fixated on cheating death. As Sophia rapidly approaches the age of twenty-seven, she must reckon with the consuming obsession of the society around her. Fast-paced, thought-provoking, and at times utterly frantic, Twenty-Seven delivers a disarmingly honest portrayal of human frailty and strength through the lens of one tormented outcast. While presciently casting a cold eye on our health-obsessed future, it exposes the darker side of an all-too-sterile world, where the ultimate prestige is longevity. You may never look at the notion of a long and healthy life in the same way again.

Bright as Gold
|
["Denise Weimer"]
| 4.54 | 37 | 7 |
In the fourth and final installment of The Georgia Gold Series, the Randalls and Rousseaus rebuild their lives following The War Between the States. Becoming the bride of former blockade runner Jack Randall is doubly challenging for a half-Cherokee girl from the mountains, but Mahala Franklin is determined to not only make a place in old Savannah ... but bring redemption to the Randall name as well as the city's shattered society. Her unique plan enlists the help of Jack's half-sister Sylvie and cousin Ella Beth, both of whom learn that, like Jack and Mahala, love can be found in the most unlikely places.
Meanwhile, battle-hardened Dylan Rousseau returns to the family farm in Habersham County, where his inner wounds threaten to crack him open as surely as the drought-baked earth he must learn to subdue. And somehow he must find a way past his brother's memory into the heart of Mahala's best friend Carolyn, the woman he has always loved. Weaving between them comes the secret promise - or the deadly lure? - of lost Confederate gold. Will it divide them forever and devour a family legacy, or will they emerge from the furnace of afflictions as Bright as Gold?

Like many other families, they found safety and shelter in the Tube when the brutal bombings occurred. But he finds something else in the cold, dark, tense subways....
There, he meets a furloughed British soldier and his brother. As the city is besieged by a series of bombings, he finds comfort in their arms - and in the arms of other sex-hungry men underneath the grounds of London.
This story is also known as "The Blitz"
EXCERPT:
He gasped out a few times and dumped a big load of cum deep in me. He rubbed against that newly-discovered, sensitive spot in me again, and this time I shot a big load. I placed my hand over my shooting cock to catch my cum so as not to shoot all over the blanket. I brought my spent cum to my mouth and drank it down. I felt great and thought I should pull up my pants and get some rest.
My English friend had returned from the loo and lay down on the blanket facing me. After his brother slowly pulled his wet cock from my fuck hole and turned over facing the wall again.
"How ya doing, Yank?" he said to me as he pulled the covers over us once again. "Good piece of arse."
He then whispered to me, "My little brother's a wild bastard. You'll have to try that one again sometime. Are ya ready for some more action? It looks like it's gonna be a long night."

Collaborative Networked Organizations: A research agenda for emerging business models
|
["Luis M. Camarinha-Matos"]
| 4 | 2 | null |
A research agenda for collaborative networks Purpose. Many practical application experiments and pilot cases nowadays provide evidence on what works and what still remains as a challenge for collaborative networked organizations (CNOs). The fast evolution of the information and communication technologies and in particular the so-called Internet technologies, also represents an important motivator for the emergence of new forms of collaboration. However, most efforts in this area are highly fragmented, considering only some partial facets and not a holistic perspective that would be required. We are therefore at a point in which it is necessary to define much more consolidated and sustainable research strategies for a second phase of research and development in this area. This book addresses the main disciplines involved in CNOs. It further synthesizes the views and opinions expressed by a large number of visionaries from the main disciplines involved in CNOs, and offers a comprehensive set of recommendations for the establishment of a research agenda on collaborative networks. As recognized experts in their specific areas, different authors in this book have presented work that is backed by a large number of research results, each focusing on specific facets of collaborative networks, and coming out of a large number of international and national projects.

A Good Voyage
|
["Katharine Davies"]
| 3.57 | 7 | 1 |
When her twin brother breaks a promise and returns to their childhood home in Sri Lanka on his own, Valentina decides that it's time to make some changes in her life. She cuts off her hair and takes a job as a gardener (although she'd prefer to be a writer) in a small town near the sea in Wales. And so the story takes us to Illerwick, an alluring, timeless place, and to the people who live there. Leo Spring, an eccentric musician, lives alone in Beech House with a once beautiful garden that has now become overgrown and wild. Valentina has come to help Leo restore the neglected garden to its former glory, and she soon falls in love with him. But Leo is consumed by his unrequited infatuation with Melody, the beautiful headmistress in mourning for her brother who leapt to his death from the cliffs. Mr Boase, the alcoholic and bullying deputy head, also holds a flame for Melody; and one of her pupils, Fitch, is another who daydreams about her. As summer draws near, and the garden is gradually transformed, Leo organises a garden party in an attempt to impress Melody. But on the night of the party, events come to a head, secret passions are revealed, and the characters are jolted into understanding that facing their feelings can be a matter of life or death. A Good Voyage is a magical story that charts the voyages of its characters as they move from the pain and comedy of loss and longing to self-realisation and love. Katharine Davies writes with an astounding poise and lightness of touch, making this first novel, with its air of disquiet and enchantment, an unforgettable pleasure.

To Catch a Fish

["Marcia Talley"]
| 0 | 0 | null |
All signs point to murder in this story from mystery author Marcia Talley, originally published in DEATH BY HOROSCOPE, an anthology of astrological mysteries from some of the most popular crime writers in the zodiac, edited by Anne Perry. “Each author had to choose a sign of the zodiac as a theme, and since I’m an avid sailor, naturally I chose pisces,” Marcia said. “‘To Catch a Fish’ was inspired by the time I spent living aboard a 37-foot sailboat in the Bahamas—not a floating palace, I assure you, but a space the size of your average American bathroom—but I wrote the story while on vacation in Hawaii, so I definitely had sunshine, palm trees and gin-clear water as well as murder on my mind.Marcia Talley's Agatha and Anthony award-winning short stories have appeared in more than a dozen collections, including anthologies edited by New York Times best-selling authors Lawrence Block, Elizabeth George, Laura Lippman, and Anne Perry. They have been selected for inclusion in The World's Finest Mystery and Crime Stories and The Deadly Bride and 21 of the Year's Finest Crime and Mystery Stories, edited by Ed Gorman and Martin H. Greenberg. Marcia Talley is the author of ALL THINGS UNDYING and eight previous mystery novels featuring survivor and sleuth, Hannah Ives. Hannah's tenth adventure, A QUIET DEATH, will be published in the summer of 2011 by Severn House.

Beneath the Clouds

["Shane Goetze"]
| 2.33 | 3 | 1 |
The flying men of China.
A Hong Kong museum is host to artefacts from a lost race of people known as the Hu. Many believe that the Hu once possessed the ability to fly before they were wiped out during the Cultural Revolution.
But after the artefacts' theft, journalist Bill Jacks receives a lead from a mysterious source. And so he leaves the shores of Hong Kong to embark on a perilous journey that will lead him through the very heart of China. Together with Hong Kong policeman, Allen Lam, Bill begins to unearth the mystery of the Hu.
But even as he begins to discover the truth—that the Hu might not be so ancient after all—he becomes the target of vicious Communist agents, who will do anything to stop him from telling the world about the flying men of China. And if Bill can’t solve the mystery of the Hu, then they will disappear forever into the mists of history.
The question is, can Bill discover the ancient sanctuary of the Hu before it is too late…?

Adultery: Infidelity and the Law
|
["Deborah L. Rhode"]
| 4.5 | 2 | 1 |
At a time when legal and social prohibitions on sexual relationships are declining, Americans are still nearly unanimous in their condemnation of adultery. Over 90 percent disapprove of cheating on a spouse. In her comprehensive account of the legal and social consequences of infidelity, Deborah Rhode explores why. She exposes the harms that criminalizing adultery inflicts, and she makes a compelling case for repealing adultery laws and prohibitions on polygamy.
In the twenty-two states where adultery is technically illegal although widely practiced, it can lead to civil lawsuits, job termination, and loss of child custody. It is routinely used to threaten and tarnish public officials and undermine military careers. And running through the history of anti-adultery legislation is a double standard that has repeatedly punished women more severely than men. An “unwritten law” allowing a man to avoid conviction for killing his wife’s lover remained common well into the twentieth century. Murder under these circumstances was considered an act of understandable passion.
Adultery has been called the most creative of sins, and novelists and popular media have lavished attention on sexual infidelity. As a focus of serious study, however, adultery has received short shrift. Rhode combines a comprehensive account of the legal and social consequences of adultery with a forceful argument for halting the state’s policing of fidelity.

For Toron's Pride - When her jerk of an ex-boyfriend turns her into a lion shifter, Sienna just can't accept that she's no longer human. She's determined to live a normal life despite PMS as a shifter being off the charts. When she meets Toron, the leader of the pride, she can't deny how sexy he is or her attraction to him, but Toron has a power that threatens to sweep away all the plans she's made for her life. No one man should have that much control over the people around him. After a night of unbelievable sex, Sienna leaves Toron, and he lets her go. Five years later, she is forced to seek the help of the man she's never been able to get out of her head. Will he forgive her for the decision she made so long ago? In Hawke's Eyes - Stephanie is injured in a car accident and declared legally blind until she can get cornea transplants after a year of healing. Taking care of her ten year old daughter as a widowed mom is hard enough without Meechi’s grandmother and uncles insinuating she’s not capable. Her dead husband’s family doesn’t care about Meechi. They want the inheritance left for her to save their failing company. Stephanie is at the end of her rope until she meets Hawke. Hawke is kind, strong, and sexy. She can’t see him clearly yet, but her fingertips tell her all she needs to know when she explores his body. While he is protective of her, he doesn’t make her feel weak and useless. Stephanie can see herself falling in love with this man, even though she’d decided not get involved with another man. When danger threatens her and her daughter, Hawke sweeps them away to a small town in Vermont, but can Stephanie accept Hawke when she learns his secret?

Campaign Finance and Political Polarization: When Purists Prevail
|
["Raymond J. La Raja"]
| 3 | 1 | null |
Efforts to reform the U.S. campaign finance system typically focus on the corrupting influence of large contributions. Yet, as Raymond J. La Raja and Brian F. Schaffner argue, reforms aimed at cutting the flow of money into politics have unintentionally favored candidates with extreme ideological agendas and, consequently, fostered political polarization.
Drawing on data from 50 states and the U.S. Congress over 20 years, La Raja and Schaffner reveal that current rules allow wealthy ideological groups and donors to dominate the financing of political campaigns. In order to attract funding, candidates take uncompromising positions on key issues and, if elected, take their partisan views into the legislature. As a remedy, the authors propose that additional campaign money be channeled through party organizations—rather than directly to candidates—because these organizations tend to be less ideological than the activists who now provide the lion’s share of money to political candidates. Shifting campaign finance to parties would ease polarization by reducing the influence of “purist” donors with their rigid policy stances.
La Raja and Schaffner conclude the book with policy recommendations for campaign finance in the United States. They are among the few non-libertarians who argue that less regulation, particularly for political parties, may in fact improve the democratic process.

An emotional, heartwarming story from New York Times bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand about a grieving family that finds solace where they least expect it.Celebrity chef Deacon Thorpe has always been a force of nature with an insatiable appetite for life.

Now Deacon's three wives, his children, and his best friend gather on the island he loved to say farewell. The three very different women have long been bitter rivals, each wanting to claim the primary place in Deacon's life and his heart. But as they slowly let go of the resentments they've held onto for years and remember the good times, secrets are revealed, confidences are shared, and improbable bonds are formed as this unlikely family says goodbye to the man who brought them all together, for better or worse--and the women he loved find new ways to love again.

A Less Perfect Union: The Case for States' Rights
|
["Adam Freedman"]
| 1 | 1 | null |
One of America’s leading conservative commentators on constitutional law provides an illuminating history of states’ rights, and the vital importance of reviving them today. Liberals believe that the argument for “states’ rights” is a smokescreen for racist repression. But historically, the doctrine of states’ rights has been an honorable tradition—a necessary component of constitutional government and a protector of American freedoms. Our Constitution is largely devoted to restraining the federal government and protecting state sovereignty. Yet for decades, Adam Freedman contends, the federal government has usurped rights that belong to the states in a veritable coup. In A Less Perfect Union , Freedman provides a detailed and lively history of the development and creation of states’ rights, from the constitutional convention through the Civil War and the New Deal to today. Surveying the latest developments in Congress and the state capitals, he finds a growing sympathy for states’ rights on both sides of the aisle. Freedman makes the case for a return to states’ rights as the only way to protect America, to serve as a check against the tyranny of federal overreach, take power out of the hands of the special interests and crony capitalists in Washington, and realize the Founders’ vision of libertarian freedom—a nation in which states are free to address the health, safety, and economic well-being of their citizens without federal coercion and crippling bureaucratic red tape.

May 23, 2440 A.D Around Jay Bruce's spaceship, the sky is an impenetrable blanked of opaque gas, typical of this region on Jupiter just north of the Red Spot. Bruce was puzzled. Why had the lovely young woman seated next to him chartered his ship to cruise an uninhabited area? Then it appeared...a massive Martian warship unlike any he'd ever seen before, forcing him to land -- and perhaps to die -- in the barren Jovian wilderness!

Welcome To The Zone: Peak Performance Redefined

["Scott Ford"]
| 3.4 | 5 | null |
What if you could reach peak performance…all the time?
“Scott has devoted his entire professional career to understanding and mastering the zone in tennis. His training system is both effective and practical. His approach clearly demonstrates the importance of visualization in achieving peak performance.”
– Dr. Jim Loehr, author of The Power of Full Engagement
Flow, the zone, peak performance…there are different names for it, but you know how powerful it is when you’re there. Conventional coaching wisdom says there is no reliable formula to reach that state, but Scott Ford is here to turn that thinking on its head.
Inspired by his own experience, Scott developed The Parallel Mode Process, a real protocol to get in the zone. Peak performance is directly related to enhanced consciousness, and you can learn to create it. The body-mind presence that Scott teaches has useful applications in all parts of your life, but if you’re looking to improve your tennis game exponentially and consistently, Welcome to the Zone is the book for you.
Get in the zone by choice, not by chance!

Mass Capitalism: A Blueprint for Economic Revival
|
["Apek Mulay"]
| 4.5 | 4 | 1 |
Job security flew out the door decades ago--and now seems forever out of reach, thanks to the Great Recession. As much of our economy follows jobs to other countries, especially China, Americans must wonder what we will be left holding. Can we retrieve what we have lost? Apek Mulay knows we can. His Mass A Blueprint for Economic Revival presents solutions to the economic problems threatening the survival of the US and global economies. Mass capitalism would establish a balanced economy
eliminate unemployment
eliminate deficits and nation debt
revive the US economy
establish a free-market economy A true free market--with minimal government intervention and lower taxes on individuals--calls for the majority shares of Fortune 500 companies to be owned by their employees, rather than outside investors. Mulay's background in macroeconomics and microelectronics--and seeing the offshoring of jobs in that industry to foreign countries--provides the basis for his exploration of where we went wrong and how to correct course. Input from authorities on the subject verify his vision. And clear, simple explanations make the concepts accessible to all readers. Now is the time for Mass Capitalism to carry the United States forward and allow us to continue to innovate and benefit from our work.

Mariti o Le imperfezioni di Gi
|
["Valentina Diana"]
| 3.45 | 11 | 1 |
Se qualcuno vi chiedesse di cosa parla questo libro, ve la cavereste facilmente rispondendo: è la storia di un matrimonio. Anzi, di un matrimonio tardivo. In realtà però questo libro parla della paura della felicità, che spesso va di pari passo con quell'esercizio di equilibrismo che chiamiamo vita di coppia. Drina e Gi si sono baciati per la prima volta a vent'anni, ma senza lingua. Per la lingua hanno dovuto aspettarne altri venti. Ritrovarsi, quando la vita un po' sembra alle spalle, è cosí strano. Come se Cenerentola in premenopausa incontrasse il Principe Azzurro - stempiato e con la pancetta - e gli dicesse: «Parliamone». Drina ha un figlio adolescente, molti problemi e un bellissimo sguardo sulle cose. Soprattutto su Gi. Già, perché Drina guarda suo marito in un modo cosí divertente e complesso che ti pare di essere lí, a ridere, disperarti, passare l'aspirapolvere con loro: invece lo stai facendo a casa tua. Gi fa l'architetto, accumula ingiunzioni di pagamento nel bagagliaio dell'automobile, aggroviglia le lenzuola mentre dorme e butta folate di ottimismo su chiunque gli cada a tiro. È imperfetto, come tutti i mariti, ed è assolutamente irresistibile. Perché Gi «non è di quelli con un percorso dritto, che dall'inizio alla fine vanno sempre dalla stessa parte», ma uno capace di sparigliare ogni giorno le carte grazie alle armi dell'allegria. Mariti è una tragicommedia sentimentale profondamente contemporanea, che senza rinunciare all'intelligenza e all'umorismo ci costringe a fare i conti con l'altra metà della mela. Sperando che non sia bacata.

Everyday Life in an Early West African Empire
|
["Robin Oliver Walker"]
| 3.25 | 12 | 4 |
Five centuries ago, a great super-state flourished in West Africa. Known as the Songhai Empire, it was one of the largest imperial systems in the sixteenth century. It was nearly the same size of as all the European states combined and had 50 million people – more than that of Black America today. There were 400 cities, and the Niger Delta region alone boasted 300 Mosques. Thus, a level of urbanism existed hardly seen anywhere else before the nineteenth century.
This book for the first time combines a scholarly approach with an accessible style that brings the old Empire alive. It is comprehensive in scope and is beautifully illustrated using museum quality photographs and rare archival images. No other work of which we are aware has done as much justice to this period of World History.

Drug Trafficking, Organized Crime, and Violence in the Americas Today
|
["Bruce M. Bagley"]
| 4.5 | 4 | null |
“A first-rate update on the state of the long-fought hemispheric ‘war on drugs.’ It is particularly timely, as the perception that the war is lost and needs to be changed has never been stronger in Latin and North America.”—Paul Gootenberg, author of Andean Cocaine: The Making of a Global Drug
“A must-read volume for policy makers, concerned citizens, and students alike in the current search for new approaches to forty-year-old policies largely considered to have failed.”—David Scott Palmer, coauthor of Power, Institutions, and Leadership in War and Peace
“A very useful primer for anyone trying to keep up with the ever-evolving relationship between drug enforcement and drug trafficking.”—Peter Andreas, author of Smuggler Nation: How Illicit Trade Made America
In 1971, Richard Nixon declared a war on drugs. Despite foreign policy efforts and attempts to combat supply lines, the United States has been for decades, and remains today, the largest single consumer market for illicit drugs on the planet.
This volume argues that the war on drugs has been ineffective at best and, at worst, has been highly detrimental to many countries. Leading experts in the fields of public health, political science, and national security analyze how U.S. policies have affected the internal dynamics of Mexico, Colombia, Bolivia, Peru, Brazil, Argentina, Central America, and the Caribbean islands. Together, they present a comprehensive overview of the major trends in drug trafficking and organized crime in the early twenty-first century.
In addition, the editors and contributors identify emerging issues and propose several policy options to address them. This accessible and expansive volume provides a framework for understanding the limits and liabilities in the U.S.-championed war on drugs throughout the Americas.

Common Sense Recovery: An Atheist's Guide to Alcoholics Anonymous
|
["Adam N."]
| 4.18 | 28 | 2 |
Religion was once the primary way to understand human behavior. That was certainly true when the book Alcoholics Anonymous was written in 1939. But we have learned much over the past 75 years. The author of Common Sense Recovery: An Atheist's Guide to Alcoholics Anonymous describes in a gentle and enriching fashion how the key ingredients of recovery are better understood today via science and secularism. The book takes a close look at the 12 Steps and how and why they can be of help to the suffering alcoholic, and it does this from a modern, uplifting and secular perspective. This remarkable short book is long overdue and contains important insights for the future of the fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous.

Longtime Mac users know that Mac just works – the interface you'll come to know and love is intuitive, powerful, and designed to make your life easier. Technology can and should be exciting, and your Mac will offer all of that excitement, without the headaches! Whether you're a first time Mac user or a seasoned Mac devotee, OS X El Capitan has something for everyone. The El Capitan update brings Mac OS X even closer to the look and feel of iOS (the operating system for Apple mobile devices like the iPhone and the iPad). New features like Split View make it easier than ever to get things done, and design improvements make things look better than ever. Just like its cousin iOS 9, El Capitan features dramatic improvements to its Spotlight Search interface that make it more intuitive than ever to get the information you need. Mail will automatically pull in contacts and calendar events for you, so you never have to worry about missing an important phone call or meeting, not to mention the new Mail message full screen experience. There are also big improvements to established apps like Notes and Photos that help you organize and enjoy your photos, notes, to-do lists and more. Under the hood, El Capitan includes several tweaks that significantly improve your Mac’s performance. Apps open faster, Mail messages load more quickly, and graphics are handled more fluidly. Just like the previous OS X upgrade (Yosemite), El Capitan is a free download through the Apple App Store, though if you’re lucky enough to own a brand new Apple iMac or MacBook, it will ship with El Capitan pre-installed. But wait, you say. You've never used a Mac before, and you have no idea what any of this means. No worries! This guide was written just for you. We'll cover everything you need to know about making the switch from Windows to Mac, the basic terminology you'll need to find your way around and customize your machine, some handy tips and tricks that even serious Mac users may not know, and some basic maintenance that will keep your Mac happy and healthy for years to come. Finally, we'll cover a number of free third party apps that will help you get the most out of your Mac and OS X El Capitan. Along the way, we'll give you lots of screenshots, tips and practice so that you can feel confident, competent and comfortable with your new Mac. Congratulations on choosing OS X El Capitan for Mac – now let’s get started!

"يحقّق علاء حليحل، في روايتههذه، عدّة معادلات تضاف إلى رصيده الإبداعيّ الثّرّ. مهما تكن هذه المعادلات، أرى وجوب الإشارة إلى اثنتين منها تؤثّثان المفاصل الرئيسة للرواية:
أولًا: معادلة البحث عن الحقيقة البسيطة المخبوءة وراء الاحداث التاريخية الجلل، بمنأى مسبق الرغبة عن أيّ تغريض أو توهّم أو تبسيط.
ثانيًا: معادلة التّحرّر من الخجل في الكتابة الّتي افضت إلى التّخلّي عن قيود التقليد، وأفسحت الحيّز أمام إمكان التجريب والتخّيّل والفانتازيا وتنويع التّناصّ وأسلوب الحوار، فضلًا عن عدم الارتطام بسقف الأسطرة.
ولئن جاءت الرّواية متّكئة على وقائع تاريخيّة لمكان محدّد - مدينة عكّا - فلكي يشيّد الكاتب ظروف الحياة الخاصّة بشخوص معيّنة، بعواطفها وردّات فعلها المخصوصة، مبيّنًا كيف أنّ البيئة في مفترقاتٍ ما تضع تحدّيات أمام كائنات حيّة فتستجيب لها عبر تغيير أنماط علاقتها بعضها ببعض وبالعالمين الدّاخليّ والخارجيّ، وكلّ ذلك من خلال مقاربة نشوء الوعي وتشكّل الضّمير، سواء في الماضي، او هنا والآن.
بذا، يضعنا الكاتب قبالة الحقيقة القائلة، إنّ الأدب لا يُفهَم من الجتمع فحسب، بل إنّ فهم المجتمع ينطلق أيضًا من الادب وخيال الكاتب."

Long Road Home

["Mary Jane Morgan"]
| 4.23 | 375 | 21 |
Megan Swearingen’s life changes forever with the death of her father. Leaving college, she returns home to find her younger sister mute with shock, her mother too depressed to function, and their beloved Thoroughbred horse ranch on the verge of going under. She’s barely arrived when she’s forced to accept help from Brett Dawson—the man who once broke her heart—when a marauding mountain lion threatens one of the prized horses they depend on for survival. Brett would rather be anywhere but the Swearingen ranch. Caught between his feelings for Megan and the powder keg of the ongoing feud between their families, he feels his only choice is to help Megan, regardless of the consequences. If it weren’t for Brett’s father, Megan’s dad might still be alive, and she wouldn’t be here now sacrificing her future to save her family’s ranch. As the long-simmering attraction between Megan and Brett resurfaces, it is threatened almost before it begins by dark family secrets swirling around them—secrets that turn to danger and could very well destroy not only their new beginning, but the lives of everyone they both love.

The Calling Of Joy!: Unfolding Your Soul In Your Life
|
["Bruce Davis"]
| 4.25 | 4 | null |
The Calling of Joy is a calling to find the part of us that is more than what we do, how much we have, and what we think. It is a calling to our inner river, our passion, our well of being, our truth.
Joy does not come by accident or coincidence. It does not come from hard work or simply good luck. Joy is remembering, trusting, being, rediscovering our inner resources. Joy is creativity, tears, and laughter. Joy is our guide through life's many choices. We can feel joy in our body. Joy is slowing down from the fearful energy of the daily world to life's beauty, innocence, the ocean of peace in this moment.
It is joy that heals the separation from our mind and heart. And it is joy that heals the separation from our heart and our soul. Each of us is called to listen and honor our hearts, to nourish ourselves deeply and unfold our true self into the world.
Joy found in the midst of great difficulty is joy found forever. We have choices everyday, to wrestle with the current plot of our lives or find the possible joy. There are many golden silent moments each day which can be real food for a busy mind and hurting heart. Are we open to the moments of pure life that feed us no matter how easy or difficult, light or challenging our lives maybe?

The Sports Doping Market: Understanding Supply and Demand, and the Challenges of Their Control
|
["Letizia Paoli"]
| 0 | 0 | null |
This book examines sports doping from production and distribution, detection and punishment. Detailing the daily operations of the trade and its gray area as a semi-legal market, the authors cover important issues ranging from athletes most at risk to the role of organized crime in sports doping, and whether sports governing bodies are enabling the trade. Challenges for law enforcement and legislation, and efforts to control PED use in the worldwide sports community and among aspiring athletes, are also discussed in depth. The book's extensive • Estimates the demand for performance-enhancing products. • Traces the route from legal substances to illegal uses. • Identifies classes of suppliers and their methods of operation. • Tracks typical distribution systems from suppliers to users. • Examines the economics of the prices, profits, revenue. • Assesses the state of anti-doping law enforcement efforts.Starting with an unprecedented case study in Italy, the intense scrutiny from one pivotal country yields a potential template for research and policy on a world scale. Doping and Sport makes solid contributions to the work of researchers in criminology and criminal justice, particularly with an interest in corruption, drug trafficking, and criminal networks; researchers in sports science and public health; and policymakers.

Psychologie des Glücks
|
["Anton Bucher"]
| 3.25 | 8 | 1 |
Psychologen und Berater werden vor allem konsultiert, wenn die dunklen Seiten des Lebens Schatten werfen. Gerade deswegen wird Glück zunehmend als Ressource in Therapie und Beratung entdeckt. Bucher stellt hier den State of the Art in der Glückspsychologie zusammen und weist Wege für Praktiker. Das Streben nach Glück treibt die meisten Menschen an. Aber für Psychotherapeuten und Berater stellt sich darüber hinaus die Frage: Wie kann ich anderen dabei helfen, glücklich zu werden – und noch grundlegender: Kann Glück überhaupt ein Therapieziel sein? Hier leistet die „Psychologie des Glücks“ konkrete Hilfestellung: Mit dieser fundierten Darstellung von Glückskonzepten, Glücksfaktoren und den Auswirkungen von Glück macht Bucher deutlich, wie wichtig das Thema für alle ist, die sich in Beratung, Therapie oder Seelsorge mit Menschen, ihren Lebenszielen und ihren Schicksalen auseinandersetzen. Dabei werden sowohl direkte Verfahren wie die „Wohlbefindenstherapie“ als auch indirekte Verfahren zur Glückssteigerung vorgestellt. Aus dem Inhalt: • Was ist Glück? • Wie glücklich sind Menschen? • Was macht glücklich? • Was bewirken Glücksgefühle? • Lässt sich Glück messen? • Lässt sich Glück steigern - im Alltag und in der Therapie? • Evolutions- und neuropsychologische Aspekte des Glücks

Geek House, Part 1: Freshman Year
|
["Michael Anthony"]
| 5 | 3 | null |
Set in the late 1980s, Geek House, a four-part novella series, chronicles the immodest rise and epic fall of arguably the worst fraternity to ever defile the campus of the University of the Northwest. At its pinnacle, Tau Kappa Beta fraternity showed flashes of mediocrity. Far more often, it displayed heinous acts of depravity and incompetence.Told by Mike, a member of the first TKB pledge class, Geek House follows the struggles a shy, insecure and socially awkward 18-year-old faces trying to fit in and be cool by joining the first fraternity he steps foot into – one founded on the principle of being anti-Greek, admitting virtually all comers.More realistic than Animal House and slightly less moronic than Revenge of the Nerds, Geek House takes you back to the final golden age of the Greek system on American college campuses, a time when kegs flowed in fraternity basements, no one checked IDs at the door and, mercifully, hip-hop music didn’t exist.Over the course of four years, “Tappa Kegga Brew” grows from a new fringe fraternity to a middling force, occupying a former sorority house in a prime section of Greek Row adjoining campus. As TKB flails its way out of the lower rungs of UNW’s social order, it attracts the wrath of neighboring fraternities that view the renegade TKB house as a challenge to the traditional Greek system (how dare they admit non-pedigreed, non-jocks, and non-wealthy guys!) and the disgust of neighboring sororities that suddenly have an unwelcome birds-eye view of their drunken idiotic acts (does there always have to be someone passed out in the front lawn?).Simultaneously, Mike evolves from a social outsider into a full-fledged frat boy, leaving a pathetic path of party animal carnage in his wake. As a freshman, he dreamed of scoring the perfect girlfriend. By his senior year, he can’t remember why.A true Greek story should end in tragedy but Mike and the brothers of Geek House couldn’t even get that right. They did have a helluva good time along the way, though, forming incredible lifelong friendships and learning more about business, management and sales than any classroom could offer.Presented in four parts, Geek House is a work of creative non-fiction, a clever term meaning the series is based on actual events with just enough changes to provide plausible deniability to the plethora of petty crimes and outrageous misdeeds committed during course of the story.Geek House (Part 1: Freshman Year) details Mike’s drunken slog through dorm life with roommate Brad and next door neighbor Ted; the formation of Tau Kappa Beta Fraternity; an insane Spring Break motor home road trip with stops in San Francisco, Malibu Beach, Disneyland, San Diego and Tijuana, Mexico; experimental dalliances with hallucinogenic substances; and Mike pledging the newest and lamest fraternity on campus.Geek House SeriesPart 1: Freshman YearPart 2: Sophomore YearPart 3: Junior YearPart 4: Senior Year

Hypnosis & The Science of Seduction
|
["Patrick Wanis"]
| 4.5 | 2 | null |
One of the first questions men ask me when they learn that I am a hypnotist is “Do you use hypnosis to get girls?” Of course. And I am going to teach you how to do the same thing, and how to apply it to every area in your life. Have you ever wondered why and how average looking guys get gorgeous girls and how they seem to do it so easily? And these guys are not hypnotists, or are they? The secrets I reveal in this book will enable you to meet, date and please women. It doesn’t matter where you are right now, you will be transformed if you follow these techniques. It won’t matter if you are rich or famous, though women will treat you as if you were. Nor do you have to have greater-than-average intelligence, though you’ll feel as if you’ve become a dating genius. All you need are a few key secrets based on scientific principles that a few select experts know, and that most men unfortunately never learn. These techniques will save you so much time, hard work, frustration and rejection. After learning them, you can quickly adapt them to every area of your life. You will have success not just with the women you choose, but also success in love, relationships, career and money. I will also teach you a quick and powerful technique to gain supreme confidence. And as you continue to learn and exercise your abilities, you’ll discover that you’re meeting and dating women you never imagined would even notice you. Most important of all, they will treat you better than you have ever been treated and you will have much more fun, joy, romance and sex in your relationships. I’ll show you methods that will not only increase your self-confidence, but also teach you how to inspire women to have confidence in you and see you as the confident successful person you are about to become. Whether at a social gathering or on the job, this book will show you how to make a positive impression on every woman you meet, and how to connect with her at a deep level. I call these techniques “Self-Actualizing Hypnosis” which means you are activating within you the powers of hypnosis. The process builds upon a power of the mind that all human beings possess but often fail to exercise because they’re totally unaware of what it is or how it works. A select few men have already exploited Self-Actualizing Hypnosis -even if they don’t have a name for it. These men have been employing it throughout history to meet, date, and even seduce women. Self-Actualizing Hypnosis really does work. It works like nothing you’ve ever seen before, unless you’ve happened to be around someone using it. Self-Actualizing Hypnosis works three ways. It 1. How you perceive and feel about yourself 2. How others perceive and feel about you3. Your results Self-Actualizing Hypnosis is a powerful force that will cause women to perceive you as someone they would like to get to know better, much better. When combined with the techniques I will teach you in the chapter on The Science Of Seduction, many women, regardless of their beauty or wealth, will be instantly attracted to you, and some women will simply not be able to resist you. This sounds like magical or supernatural powers and it will seem that way when you use it. Remember, everything you’ll read here is based on principles that require a small effort on your part but reap huge rewards. All it requires on your part is to apply yourself and to follow the techniques. You’ll also discover that Self-Actualizing Hypnosis gives you confidence that extends into all areas of your life -home, work, friends, sport, social activities and, you’ll probably discover women hitting on you even when you aren’t consciously trying to attract their attention.

Trailerville
|
["John Dufresne"]
| 5 | 4 | 1 |
Drama. It's Labor Day weekend at the Trailerville Mobile Home Park in Ouachita Parish, Louisiana. Merdelle Harris's husband of forty-one years is rapidly deteriorating with Alzheimer's. She is determined to care for him, to save him if she can. In saving Bobby she's saving her own life, she believes. There are days he doesn't know her, doesn't know himself. Arlis Bryant lives in the trailer next door with his daughter, her three kids, and her beer-drinking, hot- tempered boyfriend. It's awful crowded in there, and the boyfriend thinks someone needs to go. Arlis has fallen for Merdelle, and his attentions are both a comfort and a torment to her. She has to choose between the man who loved her once and the man who loves her now, between the past and the future.
"TRAILERVILLE, the first play by novelist John Dufresne, is all about love, in all its first love, unrequited love, unbridled passion, doomed young love, the love of parents for an adult child they don't really understand, the love that grows over time in a marriage, love that is blind to the beloved's faults (even if no one else is), and ultimately, what it means to love yourself. This may sound like a recipe for heartwarming romantic comedy, so let me note that one of Dufresne's strengths as a novelist is his ability to undercut sentimentality with black humor; that talent is in evidence here as well. But Trailerville is also a very sad play, because it acknowledges that love is messy and complicated and often hurts as much as—or more than—it heals."—Loren Noveck
"TRAILERVILLE delivers big laughs and a bittersweet glow."— Flavorpill

My Watery Self: Memoirs of a Marine Scientist
|
["Stephen Spotte"]
| 3.63 | 8 | 1 |
In My Watery An Aquatic Memoir, author/scientist Stephen Spotte traces a fascinating trail through a life that began in West Virgina coal camps, drifted through reckless bohemian times of countercultural indulgence in Beach Haven, New Jersey, and led to a career as a highly-respected marine biologist. Together, these stories form a view not just of one man's life, but that of a generation that often refused to take a direct path to the workplace, insisting instead on a winding unveiling of true self-realization, to achieve previously-unimagined outcomes. For Spotte, the key was His years of beach living led to a self-initiated study of literature and the sea. He eventually returned to college and received his training as a marine biologist, and discovered, through his singular voice, a wet and occasionally very weird perspective on the world. His writing is engrossing throughout, the stories he shares--such as his stint as curator of the New York Aquarium at Coney Island at the tail end of the hippie era--are compelling and thoroughly enjoyable as he elevates the people and situations he encounters to mythical levels, blending empirical observation with literary prose.

Kari: A Story of a Prodigal Daughter
|
["D.L. Stalnaker"]
| 4.42 | 19 | 4 |
Like the prodigal son, Kari ran away from home after she finished high school. Leaving with nothing but the clothes on her back, she tried to run far away from her overbearing, abusive mother and away from God. Not looking back, she began a dangerous downward spiral into drugs, alcohol, and sex abuse. Then she met Jacob James. Would he be the salvation that she was looking for? Would she ever be able to return home to seek forgiveness from her mother? This is a story of deep despair, imprisonment (both figuratively and literally), loss, and finally redemption and hope. In this final novel in the Women of God series, the stories of Jobella, Eliza, Zoe, and Billie are drawn to a close as they are brought full circle. All of them are mentioned later in this book along with other former characters in the other books who will play a role in Kari's new life.
