Nestled deep in the woods, Shadow Falls is a secret camp where teens with supernatural powers learn to harness their abilities and live in the normal world.  But Shadow Falls is facing a problem that could finally expose them to the rest of the world.  Humans are showing up dead, and rogue vampires may be to blame. ,Camp resident Della Tsang, who’s still coming into her own vampire powers, is assigned to help find those responsible. If she succeeds, maybe she’ll even land her dream job: working for the F.R.U., the enforcers of the supernatural world.  But when she sees that her new partner is a hunky shapeshifter, things get complicated.  Steve, too gorgeous to be trusted and capable of seeing through her tough-as-nails exterior, knows just how to get under her skin.  And only hours into the mission, Della realizes rogue vampires aren’t the only threat she’s facing. If she’s ever going to complete her assignment, she’ll need his help…but learning to trust him will be her hardest challenge yet.

James Kynge
“Let China sleep, for when she wakes, she will shake the world.” Napoleon’s words seem eerily prescient today, as the shock waves from China’s awakening reverberate across the globe. In China Shakes the World, the former China bureau chief of the Financial Times, James Kynge, traces these tremors from Beijing to Europe to the Midwest as China’s ravenous hunger for jobs, raw materials, energy, and food -- and its export of goods, workers, and investments -- drastically reshape world trade and politics.,Delving beyond mere recitation of by-now-familiar statistics, Kynge’s on-the-ground reporting provides alternative explanations for China's explosive transformation, revealing many of the usual reasons given for its growth to be myths. Most important for the future, he details China’s deep, systemic weaknesses -- rampant fraud, crippling environmental crises, a corrupt banking system, faltering government institutions, a rapidly aging population -- that threaten even greater global disruptions. And he demonstrates the profound consequences of those weaknesses for American manufacturers, oil companies, banks, and ordinary consumers.,Through dramatic stories of entrepreneurs and visionaries, factory workers and store clerks at the heart of this global phenomenon, China Shakes the World explains how China’s breakneck rise occurred, the extraordinary problems the country now faces, and the consequences of both for the twenty-first century.

Of humanity there are darker tales. Stories that take some squinting to see through. Unconventional stories. Tales that threaten to break the heart by cruel twists of fate, the dogs of war, or demons that are all too real; whether they be of unrequited love or a karmic slap in the face. Happy endings take a time in coming, and some never arrive. But through all the darkness there is light, a glimmer of hope and wonder…if one has the will to see it.

It’s just over a week until Sam will be Binding with Jared, and the only thing she wants is to spend that time relaxing and preparing for the ceremony. Unfortunately, she seems to be asking too much of fate, because suddenly she’s lumbered with a number of distractions that have the potential to postpone, or even cancel, the Binding. There’s a guarded fiancé to crack, a complicated assignment to deal with, Jared’s ex to alienate, and a bunch of snobbish Master Vampires to win over – or offend, whichever. On the upside, things couldn’t possibly be any worse, could they?,Actually, yes they could. Due to a cruel twist of fate, something strange is happening to Sam –something that is changing her in ways she doesn’t like or understand. With the help of Jared and those closest to her, she has to not only handle the threats to the Binding Ceremony, but find a way to fix what has been done to her – and fast.,Warning: This book contains a stubborn and occasionally homicidal female vampire, a powerful and overprotective male vampire who refuses to lose her, and scenes of a sexual, explicit nature.

Mohamed Samraoui
Ce qu'il faut comprendre, c'est la mentalité très particulière de ces généraux, que j'ai côtoyés de près : pour eux, la vie des gens du peuple n'a rigoureusement aucune valeur, a fortiori quand ils ont manifesté des sympathies pour l'islamisme. Dès 1994, j'ai pu constater que les hommes du DRS avaient pris l'habitude de torturer et tuer leurs concitoyens comme s'il s'agissait de simples insectes. Entraînés dans ce déchaînement de barbarie, il devenait parfaitement logique que les généraux imaginent d'utiliser l'arme des massacres pour régler leurs problèmes " politiques " de 1997. Depuis janvier 1992, l'Algérie est en guerre. Version officielle pour contrer des islamistes fanatiques, une armée républicaine s'est mobilisée corps et âme. Version officieuse : une poignée de généraux corrompus ont mis leur pays à feu et à sang pour préserver leurs privilèges. Où est la vérité ? De nombreux témoignages ont déjà été publiés, affirmant l'une ou l'autre thèse, sans parvenir à trancher. Ce livre marque un tournant: son auteur, l'ex-colonel Mohammed Samraoui, ancien cadre de la fameuse " Sécurité militaire " algérienne, y révèle pour la première fois les ressorts secrets de l'une des guerres civiles les plus atroces du XXe siècle. Il a vécu, de ,l'intérieur, l'enchaînement diabolique qui a plongé l'Algérie dans l'horreur, faisant plus de cent cinquante mille morts. En désaccord avec ce qu'il voyait, il a choisi de déserter en 1996. Opposant résolu de l'islamisme radical, il n'a pas accepté les effroyables méthodes utilisées pour le combattre. A commencer par la plus stupéfiante d'entre elles : la manipulation, à un niveau insoupçonné jusqu'alors, des " groupes islamistes armés " (GIA) par ses chefs de la Sécurité militaire. C'est le cœur de son livre, qui relate dans le détail le dessous des événements clés de cette " seconde guerre d'Algérie " : des préparatifs du coup d'état de janvier 1992 aux massacres de 1997, en passant par l'assassinat du président Mohamed Boudiaf et les attentats de Paris en 1995

Deep inside a mountain in what used to be North America dwells the last of humanity. Welcome to the Biodome, where steel, rock and armed guards separate the privileged from the slaves ...,Born and raised as a slave in the Pit, Sunny O’Donnell has always accepted that she'll spend her life working to keep the Dome running and, if she lives long enough, willingly meet her end in the annual Cull when she reaches the age of thirty-five.

Bereft and disillusioned, she heads down a reckless path that sets off a riot in the Pit and leaves her accused of treason. Her only way of escaping public execution is to make a truce with her prison mate, who happens to be the heir to the dictatorship and hated enemy of the Pit. ,Now caught between two worlds on the brink of war, Sunny must weigh her own survival against risking everything to save the Pit. ,S.M. McEachern delivers the action and adventure of ,The Hunger Games,, the intrigue of ,The City of Ember",, and the romantic philosophical notes of ,Les Misérables, in her debut novel set in a future that is disturbingly plausible.

William Lane Craig,Walter Sinnott-Armstrong
The question of whether or not God exists is profoundly fascinating and important. Now two articulate spokesmen--one a Christian, the other an atheist--duel over God's existence in an illuminating battle of ideas. , In ,God? A Debate between a Christian and an Atheist,, William Lane Craig and Walter Sinnott-Armstrong bring to the printed page two debates they held before live audiences, preserving all the wit, clarity, and immediacy of their public exchanges. Avoiding overly esoteric arguments, they directly address issues such as religious experience, the Bible, evil, eternity, the origin of the universe, design, and the supposed connection between morality and the existence of God. Employing sharp and humorous arguments, each philosopher strikes quickly to the heart of his opponent's case. For example, Craig claims that we must believe in God in order to explain objective moral values, such as why rape is wrong. Sinnott-Armstrong responds that what makes rape wrong is the harm to victims of rape, so rape is immoral even if there is no God. By assuming a traditional concept of God in their discussion, the authors ensure that they are truly addressing each other's viewpoints and engaging in a disagreement over a unified issue. The book is composed of six chapters that alternate between Craig and Sinnott-Armstrong, so that each separate point can be discussed as it arises. Ideal for courses in the philosophy of religion and introduction to philosophy, this lively and direct dialogue will stimulate students and anyone interested in the existence of God, regardless of whether or not they believe in God.

"Третья штанина" - это первая книга Евгения Алехина. Стиль Алехина - на грани провокации и романтики, а герой в равной степени дерзок и наивен. Написанная о сверстниках - рожденных в середине 1980-х, - эта книга своеобразная "библия взросления". Но не тех, кто отучился в заграничных колледжах, и ныне является золотым сечением молодой русской элиты. А тех, кто учился в обыкновенных постсоветских школах, рос в спальных районах больших и маленьких городов, для кого 90-е - смутное воспоминание об унылой нищете и семейных проблемах, а 2000-е стали первой надеждой, что их самостоятельная жизнь окажется особенной и свободной.,"Детская литература для взрослых", так определяет автор свой жанр, и эта книга - мост между жизнью ребенка и взрослого.

This book is part of a series.It contains Graphic language, violence, and homosexual relations.,Glory days? If high school was their glory days, the outcast gay teens at the outreach centers run by Caden Fournier were screwed. For most of them, the torment they received at those schools and at the hands of their own families was enough to make living on the street seem like a better proposition.,Enter Camp Pride and its devoted staff of volunteers and backers. For college students Kory Maguire and Will Cooper, the camp was a way for them to help abandoned and confused gay kids find their way in life. And it didn't hurt that the incredible hunks - ex-Navy SEALs Jacob Steele and Seth Ralston - were working there, too. Straight Kory ran into Jacob in Seattle several times and found himself having lots of definitely un-straight thoughts about him. Will had been abused by his ex-boyfriend and was skittish of all men now - especially if they were twice his size, like Seth.,Werewolves Jacob and Seth have found their mates in Kory and Will. But have the fates gotten it wrong? What if Kory can't commit to a relationship with a man? Is Will too skittish to trust and give himself to someone so much more powerful than he? And can everyone put their own problems aside so that the campers can feel safe and find strength in being loved?

This book places the present Creationist opposition to the theory of evolution in historical context by setting out the ways in which, from the seventeenth century onwards, investigations of the history of the earth and of humanity have challenged the biblical views of chronology and human destiny, and the Christian responses to these challenges. The author's interest is not primarily directed to questions such as the epistemological status of scientific versus religious knowledge or the possibility of a Darwinian ethics, but rather to the problems, and various responses to the problems, raised in a particular historical period in the West for the Bible by the massive extension of the duration of geological time and human history.

'Vegetable oils give you cancer. Every extra mouthful of vegetable oil you consume takes you one step closer to a deadly (and irreversible) outcome.' David Gillespie believes that our bodies are not adapted to eat a diet which contains polyunsaturated fats in huge quantities. Our extraordinarily complex biochemistry works on an assumption that we will have a very small quantity of these fats in our diet and that every other fat we consume will come from animals or other sources of saturated fat or monounsaturated fat. This was the case until 200 years ago, but the industrial replacement of all fats with cheaper man-made vegetable oils has meant that it is almost impossible to buy food that does not contain polyunsaturated fats in the form of seed oils. They are in cooking oils, margarines, sauces, spreads, crackers, biscuits, pastry, fast food and most processed food. In Toxic Oil he reveals the evidence to support his argument that an excess of seed oils can not only cause cancer and heart disease but also damage our eyes and immune systems. This practical guide also helps you navigate the supermarket, with recommendations for brands that are low in sugar and seed oils, and provides recipes for food that would normally be made with seed oils. This accessible, entertaining and sometimes shocking book is an essential first step towards living a longer, healthier life.

In the face of modern critical scholarship, which is steadily eroding the historical reliability of the Gospels and their presentation of Jesus, conservative writers have been making valiant attempts to reestablish confidence in the Christian record and doctrine. The most prominent of these, in popular exposure and commercial success, has been Lee Strobel, in his 1998 book The Case for Christ. ,In that book, Lee Strobel, an ex-court journalist, conducts a series of 14 interviews with well-known conservative and evangelical scholars of the New Testament, such as Craig Blomberg, William Lane Craig and Gary Habermas, in an attempt to establish the reliability of the Gospel account and the truth of the Resurrection. Within the context of a scholarly critique, Earl Doherty, author of The Jesus Puzzle (also available on Amazon) takes quotations from those interviews and sets up his own dialogue with them, as though cross-examining Strobel and his witnesses in a courtroom before judge and jury. ,This makes for gripping reading, a strong atmosphere and an effective way to present the case in favor of a more rational and coherent view of the Christian record and the origins of Christianity. Challenging the Verdict exposes the deficiencies, the fallacies, the selective and misleading use of evidence inherent in The Case for Christ, and offers more reasonable alternatives. ,Challenging the Verdict is written in simple, clear, conversational language, with elements of humor and insight into logic and history. The book addresses all aspects of the Christian record: Gospels, epistles, non-canonical documents. Occasionally, it steps beyond the scope of New Testament interpretation and discusses religion and rationality in general. ,Challenging the Verdict provides an ideal response for those who have had Lee Strobel's book urged upon them by friends, family members and their local clergy. Now you can offer something in return that will show why there is good reason to question the Gospels and reject their claims.

The LEB clearly communicates the meaning of the original languages. It gives you a clear English translation, and shows you how it gets there. It is one of the components in a suite of resources from Logos Bible Software which connect the original language texts to formal translations. ,The Lexham English Bible reveals the entire translation process. Follow the path from the original language, to the interlinear, to the English translation, and then back again with a reverse interlinear, available separately. You’ll never find yourself wondering why the LEB translates a word or phrase a certain way. Identify idioms. Discover the tricky texts. See the difficult lexicographical choices. It’s all right there.,The entire translation process is focused and transparent. It was developed through an interlinear process using Logos Bible Software. With an interlinear, available separately, you can work from the original languages to the LEB, or from the LEB back to the original languages.,The LEB closely follows the original while remaining readable in contemporary English. The style of the translation is relatively literal, which stems from the desire to have the English translation correspond transparently to the original language text. The translators attempt—within these constraints—to produce a clear and readable English translation instead of a woodenly literal one.,Some words and phrases are difficult to translate, and the LEB is careful to mark these instances:,Supplied words are noted with italics. These are words in English implied by English style or structure, or they are grammaticalized from the original language. They may not be found in the original language, but are needed for a sentence to make sense in English.,⌊Idioms⌋ are noted with corner brackets. Words or phrases that don’t convey the meaning when translated literally are idiomatic, and with the LEB you can easily identify them.,Every time the LEB encounters a difficult word or phrase, you’ll know—and you’ll be able to dig deeper behind the translation itself to find the meaning in the text of the original language.

De keizervis,, het meesterwerk van de Russische schrijver Viktor Astafjev, is een schitterende realistische roman over het leven in Noordwest-Siberië, met beschrijvingen van de weidse, ruige natuur, maar ook een boek vol avontuur en symboliek. De eerste zeven ‘verhalen’ hebben verschillende stropende vissers als hoofdpersonen.,Viktor Astafjev beschrijft hun harde leven, hun vaak dagenlange verblijf in de woeste Siberische taiga, hun conflicten met het gezag dat zij niet zelden te slim af zijn, tochten op vlotten en in wankele schuitjes langs gevaarlijke klippen in de brede rivier de Jenisej. Hoogtepunt is het verhaal van de spannende vangst van de keizervis.,In het tweede gedeelte wordt de levensgeschiedenis van Akim verteld; hoewel hij het harde leven van de stropers deelt, neemt hij hun egoïstische materialisme niet over en blijft hij menselijk in zijn relatie tot mens en natuur.

Charles Adams
Using primary documents from both foreign and domestic observers, prominent scholar Charles Adams makes a powerful and convincing case that the Southern states were legitimately exercising their political rights as expressed in the Declaration of Independence when they seceded from the United States. Although conventional histories have taught generations of Americans that this was a war fought for lofty moral principles, Adams' eloquent history transcends simple Southern partisanship to show how the American Civil War was primarily a battle over competing commercial interests, opposing interpretations of constitutional rights, and what English novelist Charles Dickens described as a fiscal quarrel.

He's biting my lip and making me bleed, brushing his lips across the beating pulse in my neck, the one that throbs like crazy when he's around.,“Ty, stop,” I say because we're on a playground for God's sake, but he doesn't. He doesn't stop. He adjusts my wrists so that he's holding them with one hand, and although I probably could fight him if I wanted to, I don't. I don't want him to stop, not now, not ever.

Some things are worth waiting for…,Traveling thousands of miles from home to enter college is the only way nineteen-year-old Avery Morgansten can escape what happened at the Halloween party five years ago—an event that forever changed her life. All she needs to do is make it to her classes on time, make sure the bracelet on her left wrist stays in place, not draw any attention to herself, and maybe—please God—make a few friends, because surely that would be a nice change of pace. The one thing she didn’t need and never planned on was capturing the attention of the one guy who could shatter the precarious future she’s building for herself.,Some things are worth experiencing…,Cameron Hamilton is six feet and three inches of swoon-worthy hotness, complete with a pair of striking blue eyes and a remarkable ability to make her want things she believed were irrevocably stolen from her. She knows she needs to stay away from him, but Cam is freaking everywhere, with his charm, his witty banter, and that damn dimple that’s just so… so lickable. Getting involved with him is dangerous, but when ignoring the simmering tension that sparks whenever they are around each other becomes impossible, he brings out a side of her she never knew existed.,Some things should never be kept quiet…,But when Avery starts receiving threatening emails and phone calls forcing her to face a past she wants silenced, she’s has no other choice but to acknowledge that someone is refusing to allow her to let go of that night when everything changed. When the devastating truth comes out, will she resurface this time with one less scar? And can Cam be there to help her or will he be dragged down with her?,And some things are worth fighting for…

Nuno Júdice
Dois antigos conhecidos do tempo da Ditadura e das conspirações encontram-se, muitos anos depois, numa manifestação contra um governo que traiu as promessas feitas ao seu povo. Tudo se passa, portanto, num país imaginário de um continente também imaginário: uma Europa que se encontra em completa desagregação social e política. Um deles convida o outro para o acompanhar a uma igreja onde se encontra um caixão cujo conteúdo ele não revela. Uma mulher? Ou algo de secreto para uma revolução de que ambos falam como se fosse necessária? Durante a noite falam do passado, do presente, da mulher que ambos amaram, e do homem que ela teria amado e que os traiu a todos ligando-se aos vários governos que se sucederam, independentemente da cor política, apenas para satisfazer os seus interesses. A noite acaba com a descoberta do segredo que o caixão esconde e com os dois amigos a partirem na madrugada do dia em que a igreja vai ser implodida.

Orlando da Costa
Dedicado ao escultor assassinado José Dias Coelho, reflecte, segundo o prefácio do autor à segunda edição (Lisboa, Seara Nova, 1974), "uma experiência de vida dos anos 50, [...] que tem subjacente como que a vocação imperiosa para o cumprimento de ideais de solidariedade humana e de lutas generosas". Livro escrito com "dor e confiança" (ibi., id.), em Podem chamar-me Eurídice, Orlando da Costa retoma o mito órfico como suporte mitológico de uma história de amor que tem como contexto histórico a vivência da clandestinidade e a repressão da subversão universitária dos anos 60.

We are witnessing the patriarchy’s last gasp, and it’s not going down without a fight. Using legislation, language, and women’s own silence, it seeks to return us to a time when choice and self-determination were not options.,In this collection, twenty-one fearless writers examine reproductive rights, access to health care, violence against women, and the rise of rape apologists in the twenty-first-century United States. Illuminating intersections of gender, class, and race, these stories speak to the challenges women routinely face, the attempts to undermine their rights, and the deliberate, systemic erosion of their agency and existence as equals.,It’s time to revisit what’s at stake, what could still be lost, and why we must continually fight for equality and freedom for all.,Featuring:,Roxane Gay • Betty MacDonald • Katha Pollitt • Dolores P • Sari Botton • Addy Robinson McCulloch •Tara Murtha • Sarah Mirk • Kari O'Driscoll • Martha Bayne • Janet Frishberg • Mira Ptacin • J.
