At seventeen years old, Karissa has never been lucky enough to find love - but hopefully her luck is about to change. At a school function, she runs into a rebellious teen named Jasper, who sparks a fire in her that she didn't expect. While exploring the potential of a relationship, Jasper introduces her to a group of friends in his development - The Hemlock boys. With news traveling fast of a new girl's arrival into the crew, each guy is curious and intrigued. Following her head instead of her heart, and allowing fear to take over, Karissa throws a possible relationship with Jasper on the back burner to explore a few other relationships which causes a mess she might not be able to clean up. Luckily, Karissa is able to discuss her dating woes with one of the Hemlock boy's sister, Dakota. Wise beyond her years, Dakota offers some inspiring advice over and over again and becomes Karissa's go-to dating guru. Thrown out of her comfort zone by Jasper over and over again, Karissa can't seem to get him off her mind. Standing around bonfires by the lake, at parties with good looking people, and silent talks on the cool-night sand under the stars, she realizes that she needs to give love a chance. Just when Karissa thinks life is going as planned, disaster strikes one of the guys and everyone's lives will be changed forever. Karissa will now have to decide if she follows her heart and holds on to something that might never work out, or let it go and regret it forever.

When the truck pulls up the gravel road, and Lynn's object of affection, Chase, unloads the newest arrival, everything at SROS stands still. From her silver fur to her enormous black eyes, it's obvious that this mare's beauty is a force to be reckoned with. Yet, when the training begins, the boisterous mare refuses every one of Doug's tactics. She even throws in a few new tricks that leave him scratching his head. Fearing Justice's safety if he continues, Doug is about to throw in the towel and give up. However, Chase steps up and makes a decision that will change the fate of SROS forever. Uneasy with the bond between her and Justice, Zoey decides to reach out for a second opinion about Lightning's diagnosis. The results shock everyone, and Zoey is forced to decide on a different path for his future. Lynn, Doug, Cindy, and Chase rally together to support her in this difficult decision, leaving her with the realization that she finally has the family she's been searching for. As the first show closes in, Rumble and Lynn are the only duo on the entry list. Everyone's emotions are on edge, and anger and jealousy might just destroy some budding relationships. Will SROS make it through the first show of the season with both Lynn and Zoey in the ring? Or, will their National Championships be forgotten, collecting dust on the crumbling SROS shelves?

It's been weeks since George went missing, and Sky and Jo couldn't feel more relieved about it. The warmth of the summer is shifting into autumn, and a sense of calm has overtaken... or so they think. When Jo has a terrifying run-in with a man in the woods, a bit of memory loss leaves her questioning things. Small signs point to George's existence, and the girls have to figure out the truth before he makes his entrance back into their lives or worse... creates a quick exit for them, instead. Sky's stomach grows with each day that passes, and the danger that may be lurking outside their window is unsettling. Will Jo be able to protect her friend and the new baby? Is George lurking about in the woods? Does he have someone helping him? Back at home, Sherry hires Adam, a new handyman and Sky reveals a secret of her own that may change everything. Is Adam someone the girls can trust? The clues are beginning to come together in Jo's mind, but it might not be the answer she wants. Perhaps, George won't be the only one she has to worry about and she may be alone to fight him sooner than she thinks.

A Dictionary of Biology

A Dictionary of Biology

M. Abercrombie; C.J. Hickman; M.L Johnson

AldineTransaction
2008
nidottu
"A Dictionary of Biology" is an up-to-date reference work explains several thousand specialized words that allow for empirical approaches to the biological sciences. It includes more than bare definitions, including information about most of the things named so as to convey their significance in biological discussion. M. Abercrombie, C. J. Hickman, and M. L. Johnson in effect interpret this language as it is actually used, emphasizing customary usage rather than etymology.This comprehensive lexicon includes two thousand entries. Many unfamiliar terms, especially the rarer ones, are defined with the help of other technical terms, perhaps equally unfamiliar. This trick of dictionary-makers could only be avoided by giving a complete account of a large part of biology under each heading. Every biological technical term used in a definition is itself defined elsewhere in the dictionary; though some semi-technical terms, words that can be found in any English dictionary are omitted.The authors use codes throughout the dictionary to help the reader to interpret the use of a word such as whether it is used in relation to plants and animals only, whether the word is an adjective, and when a term is defined elsewhere and adds information to the current definition. The result is an invaluable guide for the layman, the student, and the scholar alike. It presents clear and authoritative explanations of the terms and will remain useful as a quick and concise source of reference.

A fascinating, immensely readable biography of one of the most important radical intellectuals of the twentieth century.C. L. R. James: A Political Biography offers the first sustained account of the life and work of one of the twentieth-century's most important radical intellectuals.C. L. R. James (1901-1989) was born and raised in Trinidad and became one of the most prominent figures to emerge out of the West Indian diaspora. He authored numerous books and essays on Caribbean history, Marxist theory, literary criticism, Western civilization, African politics, Hegelian philosophy, and popular culture. His best known works, The Black Jacobins: Toussaint L'Ouverture and the San Domingo Revolution, and Beyond a Boundary are classics of twentieth-century thought. James played an active part in democratic movements in the West Indies and Africa as well as in left-wing and Pan-African campaigns in Britain, the United States, and Trinidad.

C.L.R.James's Caribbean

C.L.R.James's Caribbean

Paget Henry; Paul Buhle

Duke University Press
1992
pokkari
For more than half a century, C. L. R. James (1901-1989)-"the Black Plato," as coined by the London Times-has been an internationally renowned revolutionary thinker, writer, and activist. Born in Trinidad, his lifelong work was devoted to understanding and transforming race and class exploitation in his native West Indies, as well as in Britain and the United States. In C. L. R. James's Caribbean, noted scholars examine the roots of both James's life and oeuvre in connection with the economic, social, and political environment of the West Indies. Drawing upon James's observations of his own life as revealed to interviewers and close friends, this volume provides an examination of James's childhood and early years as colonial literatteur and his massive contribution to West Indian political-cultural understanding. Moving beyond previous biographical interpretations, the contributors here take up the problem of reading James's texts in light of poststructuralist criticism, the implications of his texts for Marxist discourse, and for problems of Caribbean development.

C.L.R. James is one of the twentieth century's most remarkable individuals. As the author of the influential book The Black Jacobins, he is widely recognized as the premier scholar of slave revolt; the publication of his acute and sensitive volume Beyond a Boundary established an equal reputation as a historian of sport; and his tireless political and intellectual interventions have become the hallmark of a highly creative Marxist thinker, a brilliant dialectician and the last surviving pioneer of Pan-African liberation.James's work has never previously been studied in its entirety. Now Paul Buhle, a longtime editorial collaborator with James, has produced a rich and informed analysis of his accomplishments. Drawing upon extensive interviews with James, his critics and his erstwhile supporters, together with many previously unpublished documents, Buhle's book offers an appreciative and enlightening portrait of the man and his times. The author also sheds new light on subjects ranging across Pan-Africanism, West Indian literature, British and American Marxism and the rise of third world nationalism.
