A vicious murder with a broadsword leaves a man dead at a remote and ancient castle in the Bavarian forests. Shortly thereafter, the bubonic plague—a hideous disease believed to be eliminated centuries ago, is detected in Bavaria, killing its victims. German police Kommissar Franz Waldbaer strongly suspects a link to the castle, but his investigation is impeded by the master of the castle, the arrogant Count von Wintelock. As Waldbaer painfully extracts information from the Count, more people die, and it becomes apparent that the deadly plague is spreading—and fast. Waldbaer and his team of international infectious disease specialists find themsleves on a collision course with a twisted genius who wants to plunge the world into the Dark Ages, leaving millions dead. To make matters worse, the killer has a terminal disease. With nothing to lose, he accelerates his efforts.
A vingt-six ans, les jours de Gordon sont comptEs. Du moins, il espEre qu'ils le sont. LassE de la culpabilitE et des regrets qui dEcoulent d'un horrible accident de voiture, deux ans auparavant, dans lequel un homme a perdu la vie, il se rEveille chaque matin avec des pensEes suicidaires. Alors que la loi l'oblige A travailler pour expier ses pEchEs, sa rEdemption personnelle est beaucoup plus difficile A trouver. Puis Minus - un simple sans-abri qui a sa propre croix A porter - sauve Gordon d'un terrible destin. Une nuit, non seulement Gordon trouve une lumiEre A suivre, et peut-Etre mEme un but A sa vie, mais aussi la possibilitE que l'amour l'attende au bout du tunnel. Il n'aurait jamais imaginE qu'il dEcouvrirait un moyen de se pardonner et, qu'en le faisant, il ouvrirait suffisamment son cOEur pour gagner l'acceptation et l'amour de la personne qu'il a le plus blessEe.
Science is dangerous, and the inspired science of the genius is deadly. Meet Zooey, a beautiful graduate student, who uncovers answers to an unexpected, diabolical creature buried deep within a specific set of quantum equations. Join her aging professor's race to stop her from discovering his darkest secret.
Cold and Ultracold Collisions in Quantum Microscopic and Mesoscopic Systems

Cold and ultracold collisions occupy a strategic position at the intersection of several powerful themes of current research in chemical physics, in atomic, molecular and optical physics, and even in condensed matter. The nature of these collisions has important consequences for optical manipulation of inelastic and reactive processes, precision measurement of molecular and atomic properties, matter-wave coherences and quantum-statistical condensates of dilute, weakly interacting atoms. This crucial position explains the wide interest and explosive growth of the field since its inception in 1987. The author reviews elements of the quantum theory of scattering theory, collisions taking place in the presence of one or more light fields, and collisions in the dark, below the photon recoil limit imposed by the presence of any light field. Finally, it reviews the essential properties of these mesoscopic quantum systems and describes the key importance of the scattering length to condensate stability.

This special issue of Ethnohistory explores the relationships among sexuality, power, and desire in colonial Mesoamerica. Investigating conflicts over sexuality, the essays illustrate the importance of sexual behaviors and desires in negotiating identities and complex power relations in the Mesoamerican world. Taken together, they make a compelling argument that an understanding of the role of sexuality is as essential to the study of Latin America as is knowledge about political economy, social organization, ethnicity, and gender.One contributor considers a criminal case in seventeenth-century Mexico that demonstrates that the negotiation of homosexual identity was much more complex than the model of domination and submission often believed to structure Latin American male homosexual relationships. Another contributor examines how priests in Mayan communities attempted to use the confessional and confessional manuals to promote their own notions of sexual desire and ownership of indigenous women, only to have their efforts turned against them, with Mayan women using the texts to assert strategic dominance over the priests. Yet another essay, focusing on the treatment of a hermaphrodite in late colonial Guatemala, examines how the hermaphrodite’s traits undermined or called into question Enlightenment-era ideas about sex and gender.Contributors.

It has been said that the only asset that a lawyer has is time. But the reality is that a lawyer’s greatest asset is information. The practice and the business of law is all about information exchange. The flow of information travels in a number of different directions during the life of a case. A client communicates certain facts to a lawyer. The lawyer assimilates those facts and seeks out specialised legal information which may be applicable to those facts. In the course of a generation there has been a technological revolution which represents a paradigm shift in the flow of information and communication. Collisions in the Digital Paradigm is about how the law deals with digital information technologies and some of the problems that arise when the law has to deal with issues arising in a new paradigm.
