Book excerpt: Wendell Sanger burns for the touch of young skin and the feel of young girls. He stalks his prey with the methodical organization that he uses in his business. He feels neither shame nor remorse, and he feels no satisfaction except for that brief moment when he is gorging himself on his victim. Ernest Caldwell is the police chief of Mossberg, Arkansas. His only companions are his bottle of Jack Daniels and his deputy. The townspeople see him as a lecherous boor of a man with no morals or ability, but he does work cheap and there is little crime in Mossberg. Wendell walks so close to the edge of sanity that he passes unnoticed. Ernest walks so close to the edge of corruption that he has no credibility. The murder of Kelly Settle will change both menas lives forever as one manas obsession becomes the other manas redemption.

This book was released on 2014-06-19 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intellectual Property at the Edge addresses both newly formed intellectual property rights and those which have lurked on the fringes, unadmitted to the established IP canon. It provides a basis for studying and discussing the history of these emerging rights as well as their relationship to new technological opportunities and to the changing importance of innovation and creative production in the global economy. In addition to addressing the scope of new rights, it also focuses on new limitations to patent, copyright and trademark rights that spring from similar changes. All of these developments are examined comparatively: for each new development, scholars in two jurisdictions analyse the evolving legal norm. In several instances, the first of the paired authors writes from the perspective of the legal system in which the doctrine emerged, and the second addresses its reception in her jurisdiction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extreme Sport distinguishes the life of Helmut Linzbichler. For decades he’s pursued ultrarunning, mountain climbing, climbing and skiing with a passion. He is the oldest European to stand on top of Everest, climbed all Seven Summits, ran 135 miles through Death Valley in the Badwater Ultramarathon, and 2,600 miles across the USA in the Transamerica run. Exploring his own limits physical as well as mental - is this Austrian’s lifeblood. To what extent is his childhood responsible for his longing for extremes? Was sport just a way for him to be noticed, a replacement for the father’s love he never experienced? Is his adventurous lifestyle more than anything else an escape after the death of his pregnant wife? How did Helmut’s life change as a result of his cancer diagnosis and nearly losing his life on Everest? “Adventure Unlimited” tells of intense passions and of striving toward seemingly unreachable goals. It’s a story of powerful successes, but also of dealing with defeat and calamity. True to the motto “Life is way too short for someday,” Helmut Linzbichler knows from his own experience: It is never too late to live your dreams - no matter how old you are.

This book was released on 2023-01-09 with total page 1386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 2007 and 2014, a Greek-American team investigated an impressive array of Early Roman to Early Byzantine buildings and burials on the Koutsongila Ridge at Kenchreai, the eastern port of ancient Corinth. This volume presents the project's final results, revealing abundant evidence not only for the history of activity in a transitional urban/suburban landscape, but also for the society, economy, and religion of local residents. Important structural and mortuary discoveries abound, including a district of lavish houses with exquisite mosaic pavement and an Early Christian Octagon. The large artifactual assemblage encompasses a variety of objects from pottery and lamps to glass, coins, and jewelry. Bones and teeth from over 200 individuals illustrate differences in health over time, while thousands of bones and shells from a variety of animals attest to diet and subsistence. This study paints a picture of a Corinthian community, small but prosperous and well connected, actively participating in an urban elite culture expressed through decorative art and monumental architecture.

This book was released on 2024-05-07 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The true story of five castaways abandoned on the Falkland Islands during the War of 1812—a tale of treachery, shipwreck, isolation, and the desperate struggle for survival. In Left for Dead, Eric Jay Dolin—“one of today’s finest writers about ships and the sea” (American Heritage)—tells the true story of a wild and fateful encounter between an American sealing vessel, a shipwrecked British brig, and a British warship in the Falkland archipelago during the War of 1812. Fraught with misunderstandings and mistrust, the incident left three British sailors and two Americans, including the captain of the sealer, Charles H. Barnard, abandoned in the barren, windswept, and inhospitable Falklands for a year and a half. With deft narrative skill and unequaled knowledge of the very pith of the seafaring life, Dolin describes in vivid and harrowing detail the increasingly desperate existence of the castaways during their eighteen-month ordeal—an all-too-common fate in the Great Age of Sail. A tale of intriguing complexity, with surprising twists and turns throughout—involving greed, lying, bullying, a hostile takeover, stellar leadership, ingenuity, severe privation, endurance, banishment, the great value of a dog, the birth of a baby, a perilous thousand-mile open-ocean journey in a seventeen-foot boat, an improbable rescue mission, and legal battles over a dubious and disgraceful wartime prize—Left for Dead shows individuals in wartime under great duress acting both nobly and atrociously, and offers a unique perspective on a pivotal era in American maritime history.

Book excerpt: "Grace Period is a novel about living with serious illness. Set in the cultural and natural riches of Sacramento and California's Central Valley, it is the story of two divorced, middle-aged cancer survivors, Marty Martinez and Miranda Mossi, who fall in love and resolve to make the most of whatever remains of their lives." "The story begins when Mexican American journalist Marty thinks his life can't get any worse: his beloved son has died of AIDS, his wife has divorced him and joined a cult, his daughter blames him for the disintegration of her parents' marriage, and he is estranged from his brothers and sisters. Then a chance medical examination reveals that he has prostate cancer." "Marty faces his bewildering new role as a cancer patient with awkward grit and touching desperation. He copes with fear and the painful, sometimes embarrassing, treatment of his disease, but instead of winding down his life he finds fresh purpose. He renews his faith in a Catholic Church as troubled as he is, and he meets Miranda, another cancer survivor, and falls in love. He brings new intensity to his newspaper career as he investigates far-reaching political scandals and pedophile priests. And he finds the courage to face his siblings and his angry daughter and to reunite the family."--BOOK JACKET.

Book excerpt: From 1978 to 1998, the United States Justice Department took on the mafia and corrupt unions using all available tools and even enhanced some old lawsa new agency and new laws. It was open season on organized crime and labor racketeers. A letter to the president of the United States effectively launched the Office of Labor Racketeering and Organized Crime with a bag of tools, which included the RICO statute, the Inspector General Act, organized crime bill, Presidential Commission on Organized Crime . . . and a hundred agents. After James Rydal Hoffa, president of Teamsters International, disappeared in 1975, there were no definitive answers as to what happened for years. Still today, there are unanswered questions to the mystery, like, where is the body? I was put into an unrelenting position to find out. Everybody has a story. This is my storya true story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was the outcome of the First World War on a knife edge? In this major new account of German wartime politics and strategy Holger Afflerbach argues that the outcome of the war was actually in the balance until relatively late in the war. Using new evidence from diaries, letters and memoirs, he fundamentally revises our understanding of German strategy from the decision to go to war and the failure of the western offensive to the radicalisation of Germany's war effort under Hindenburg and Ludendorff and the ultimate collapse of the Central Powers. He uncovers the struggles in wartime Germany between supporters of peace and hardliners who wanted to fight to the finish. He suggests that Germany was not nearly as committed to all-out conquest as previous accounts argue. Numerous German peace advances could have offered the opportunity to end the war before it dragged Europe into the abyss.

This book was released on 2019-08-27 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume reviews the economic underpinnings (investment and financing) and institutional reforms needed to successfully scale up the education of health workers. In this regard, the book examines five major economic and institutional challenges that policy makers face: (1) governance of health education organizations and systems; (2) approaches to financing the education of health workers; (3) the special nature of capital investment in expanding the capacity of health education institutions; (4) public-private partnerships in health education; and (5) equity in accessing health education, with a special focus on issues that arise from private approaches to the education of health workers.Much of the existing literature focuses on the quality and contents of training health workers, and very little has been written on the institutional dimension of financing their training and education. This book examines the complex institutional and financial models and approaches that can impact the demand and supply of health worker education programs around the world.Building on the findings of the Independent Commission on the Education of Health Professionals for the 21st Century, which published on the foundations and the issues of global postsecondary professional education, this volume brings in new and in-depth aspects such as governance, capital investments, and the role of the private sector in the production of health professionals; thus allowing the reader to understand how the health worker education field has moved from theory to practice.
