Giftmischende Malayen auf Halmahera, kopfjagende Alfuren in Borneo, Fiebersümpfe, Moskitoschwärme und Blutegel – über fast alles hat er seine Frau, wenn auch oft diplomatisch, in Kenntnis gesetzt. Die Methoden der Penisperforation jedoch vertraute er nur seinem Tagebuch. an. Die Dokumente seiner Reise geben einen Einblick in die Erfahrungen, die Willy Kükenthal während seiner Abenteuer in Südostasien gemacht hat. Sie sind ein eindrucksvolles Zeugnis der Forschung im 19. Jahrhundert. Die Briefe und das Tagebuch zeigen, unter welch extremen Bedingungen Zoologen aus Kükenthals Generation forschten, um Sammlungen für Museen zusammenzustellten.

ANDY - Baker was an outlaw, a criminal, a biker, a bad boy, and a thief. I should have run as far and fast as I could. Instead, on the day we met, I let him have his way with me. Repeatedly. I couldn't help myself. His intensity and swagger lured me, but it was the crazy sex that was sure to keep me coming back, day after day. His sordid ways scared me, but I knew if I could keep feelings out of it, it'd just be sex... BAKER - When she moved in next door, I knew I was in trouble. She was sexy. She was irresistible. She had spunk. She was also the manager of a bank my MC had robbed six months prior. She didn't recognize me, because we wore masks. If she ever found out who I really was, there'd be hell to pay. But it'd be nothing like the hell I'd be living in if my MC found out I was fucking her. We'd issued an order to kill her on sight. So far, the men in the MC hadn't seen her, but I couldn't keep her hidden forever. She was living next door to the clubhouse. BAKER is a stand-alone novel with an HEA, no cheating, and no sex outside the relationship. Forget everything you think you know about MC Romance. There are no club whores, no OM/OW drama, and there is no abuse. No other book is or will be required to tell this tale.

Baker & Botts in the Development of Modern Houston

As counsel for Pennzoil's successful effort to recover billions of dollars in damages from Texaco over the acquisition of Getty Oil Company, the Baker & Botts law firm of Houston, Texas, achieved wide public recognition in the 1980s. But among its peers in the legal and corporate worlds, Baker & Botts has for more than a century held a preeminent position, handling the legal affairs of such blue-chip clients as the Southern Pacific Railroad, Houston Lighting & Power Company, Rice University, Texas Commerce Bank, and Tenneco. In this study, Kenneth J. Lipartito and Joseph A. Pratt chronicle the history of Baker & Botts, placing particular emphasis on the firm's role in Houston's economic development.Founded in 1840, Baker & Botts literally grew up with Houston. The authors chart its evolution from a nineteenth-century regional firm that represented eastern-based corporations moving into Texas to a twentieth-century national firm with clients throughout the world. They honestly discuss the criticisms that Baker & Botts has faced as an advocate of big business. But they also identify the important impact that corporate law firms of this type have on business reorganization and government regulation. As the authors demonstrate in this case study, law firms throughout the twentieth century have helped to shape public policy in these critical areas.Always prominent in the community, and with prominent connections (former Secretary of State James A. Baker III is the great-grandson of the original Baker), the Baker & Botts law firm belongs in any history of the development of Houston and the Southwest.
