Book excerpt: The followup to Family Storms, this book follows Sasha Porter, now a senior in high school, as new troubles unfold with her foster family. Since being taken in by wealthy Mrs. Jordan March and living in her exquisite home like a daughter, Sasha Porter’s traumatic past—destitute on the streets, and the shattering accident that killed her mother—seems like a fading nightmare. Beautiful and sophisticated, as bold and daring as her “sister,” Kiera March, Sasha still keeps her mother’s wise words close to her heart: never fully trust anyone. Inside her privileged new world, it’s advice that will prove more precious than gold. Against the wishes of Jordan’s husband, Donald, Sasha attracts the attention of Duane Banks, a shy, handsome athlete, and maneuvers her way into his heart. But Duane’s hidden torment soon explodes in a horrific tragedy that pulls Sasha into a flood of guilt and despair. And when someone she thought she could trust targets her vulnerability, Sasha recalls her mother’s warnings—and a violent storm of dark deceptions and shocking family secrets is unleashed. Will she sink or swim?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Crescenta Valley residents gathered to ring in the 1934 New Year, a cloudburst broke over Southern California's San Gabriel Mountains, unleashing a deluge on mountainsides denuded by recent fires. A roaring wall of rocks, mud and water crashed down the canyons, uprooting trees, tossing boulders and automobiles like toys and carving a path of destruction. Using painstaking research and heart-rending firsthand accounts, historian Art Cobery paints a picture of survival and redemption in the face of natural disaster, including the heroic efforts of eleven-year-old Marcie Warfield to save her father and younger brother, the devastating debris flow that claimed the lives of refugees and aid workers at the American Legion Hall and the selfless acts of neighbors caught in the storm of events.

Download or read book Midnight written by Daryl Hemmerich and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-04 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the story of Cinderella and fused with the epic-style majesty of Braveheart and Camelot, Midnight is a brutal and graphic saga of romantic love and vicious revenge. Living in medieval England, Cinderella is a beautiful and angelic young woman of eighteen, whose world is about to turn upside down. Orphaned by her mother, the equally beautiful Lady Victoria, and her father, the late great Sir Thomas Baldwin, first knight to the powerful King George, Cinderella’s welfare is now under the guardianship of Sir Baldwin’s icy fiancée, who sets out to have one of her two self-centered daughters marry the king’s dashing young son, Prince Edward. The courageous Sir Jonathan Winston assumes the role and responsibilities of the first knight soon after Sir Baldwin’s demise. However, and unbeknown to everyone, King George; his wife, Queen Miriam; and their son, the prince, are all about to be embroiled in a terrible vendetta with the evil and violent Sir Richard Blackwell II, also known as the Black Knight. Hell-bent on revenge over the death of his father, Sir Richard Blackwell I, committed by Cinderella’s father, and over the death of his mother, a result of the subsequent poverty they endured, the Black Knight is out to more than even the score. Not only does he want to destroy everyone even remotely connected to Sir Baldwin, he also wants nothing less than the throne of King George. And through it all, the sweeping unrequited love of Cinderella and Prince Edward prevails at the heart of this dark opus, the saga of two people whose destinies have yet to unite. Malevolent, chilling, and suspenseful yet alternately sweet, passionate, and vibrant, Midnight is the lush medieval epic to end all others.
Book Synopsis Managing Urbanization, Climate Change and Disasters in South Asia by : Ravindra Kumar Srivastava
Download or read book Managing Urbanization, Climate Change and Disasters in South Asia written by Ravindra Kumar Srivastava and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers essential insights into potential catastrophic events that might befall upon the emerging urban landscape in South Asia, and which are due to hazards, risks and vulnerabilities inherent in the region’s geophysical location, as well as due to climate change and unplanned urbanization. It highlights major physio-graphic, demographic, geological and geophysical indicators that are responsible for changing the pattern and trend of urbanization in South Asia – a crucial issue in view of emerging threats of climate change, and changes in the demographic profile. The book addresses the disaster management scenario in South Asia, manifestations of climate change in the region and various urban setups under climate-change-induced risks. Further, it elaborates on the challenges of urbanization-based neo-risks and vulnerabilities, which manifest in the form of slum area growth, piling and littering of waste and filth, new health risks, groundwater contamination, air pollution, highly energy-dependent lifestyles, poverty, socio-economic tensions, etc. It also critically examines the institutional mechanisms for disaster risk reduction (DRR), climate change adaptation (CCA) and urban governance, and suggests appropriate changes in the governing structure to mitigate these risks. The book draws the attention of urban planners and policymakers to current shortcomings in the administrative and financial structures of local urban bodies. While outlining climate-associated risks and adaptation strategies in South Asia, it also suggests measures for integrating climate change and urban adaption with state's planning processes, and puts forward a risk alleviation platform to bring the risk managers working in different fields together, so that they make concerted efforts to achieve sustainable development. It offers valuable takeaways for researchers, urban planners, those working in industry, consultants, and policymakers.

Book excerpt: An irresistible tale of jealousy, deception and drama, Cloudburst is the second in this gripping series from the New York Timesbestselling author Sasha, a popular senior in high school, with excellent grades finds herself increasingly attracted to Duane Banks, a boy who stands out not because he flaunts his good looks and his achievements at the school like so many, but because he is shy and somewhat withdrawn. He's one of the few good-looking boys who pays little attention to her, and that makes him more interesting. When auditions for the new school play begin, she and Duane both get parts and Duane slowly seems to be coming out of his shell, permitting himself to hope and succeed at something. But when neither of his parents show up to see the play, Duane goes into depression. When one morning Duane doesn't show up for school, Sasha is distraught to learn that he has taken his own life. Blaming herself for not working harder to make him happy, Sasha too begins a downward spiral into depression. But Sasha finds support and comfort from an unexpected quarter.
Download or read book Save This Land written by Nachiketa Das and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-04-17 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Save This Land discusses some topical issues of the environment. In each of the six chapters, a topic is chosen, the problem is analysed, the dangers are described and the solutions are presented with an appeal to all for proaction to save this land. The imminent desertification caused by deforestation of land, amply served by the monsoon, must be averted by the construction of hundreds of thousands of micro-dams. The threat of sea level rise needs to be combated by undertaking a massive project of Coastal Works. The Ganga could remain perennial only with significant reforestation and strengthening of lateral and terminal moraines in the Himalaya. “When rivers die, civilisations die,” and this land faces an existential crisis because of the rivers choked to death by a vast deposition of sediments that need to be excavated for their revival. The Hirakud Dam on the Mahanadi must be revived too. Bodies of good clean drinking water are the heritage of humanity and they are getting polluted. The water quality is paramount and must be maintained.
