I was inspired to write this novel after experiencing over my years in the business world just how many companies fail to conduct themselves as “good citizens.” Their shortcomings seemed to have a common theme. The failure always seems to revolve around the CEO and the company’s board of directors. Many times, these bad actors are guilty of monetary greed, and in other times, it’s sexual harassment. My story, as proven by past and current events, explores the issue of sexual harassment in the workplace. Unfortunately, this issue exists in every industry, and it has surfaced with a vengeance. My story is about how one man, Jake Carver, was forced to take a stand. His female employees confided in him that his boss, the CEO, and some of his directors, were sexually harassing them. His fight cost him his career, his wife, and finally his life. But ultimately, justice did prevail.
When Jaime Escobar gets a disturbing e-mail asking for help from a woman claiming to be his best friend Michael's sister, he begins an adventure that takes him to a sleepy Southern town full of dangerous secrets. After arriving in Michael's hometown of Front Royal, Virginia, Jaime soon meets Michael's sister, M Forester. M believes her brother has mysteriously disappeared and may be in trouble. Since Jaime hasn't heard from Michael in months, he's inclined to think it's just one of his friend's practical jokes. But everyone in the town-and even other family members-are reluctant to talk about Michael. The only useful piece of information Jaime can glean from the residents is about Michael's home, Guard Hill House. It's haunted, they say, and when ominous drums begin to sound in the house, something terrible is about to happen. Jaime brushes aside their warning and heads to Guard Hill House to try to find clues to Michael's whereabouts. But after one horrifying experience almost kills him, and M has an unexplained, nearly fatal accident, the two realize the power of the old house. Did Michael somehow succumb to its frightening pull-and will they be next?

The book is a narrative approach to network science and especially the role of concentration risk in networks of all kinds. The more concentrated a network, the more likely it is productive and efficient. But the same concentration producing these positive outcomes increases the risk of catastrophic network failure.

In Pursuit of Disobedient Women by Dionne Searcey Pdf
When a reporter becomes the West Africa bureau chief for The New York Times, she uproots her life--and her family--to a part of the world off the radar for much of Western society. In 2015, Dionne Searcey was covering the economy for The New York Times, living in Brooklyn with her husband and three young children. Saddled with the demands of a dual-career household and motherhood in an urban setting, her life was in a rut. She decided to pursue a job as the paper's West Africa bureau chief, landing with her family in Dakar, Senegal, where she found their lives turned upside down. They struggled to figure out how they fit into this new region, and their new family dynamic where she became the main breadwinner flying off to work as her husband stayed behind to manage the home front. In Pursuit of Disobedient Women follows Searcey's sometimes harrowing, sometimes rollicking experiences as she works to get Americans to pay attention to the region during the rise of Trump. She is gone from her family for sometimes weeks at a time, often risking her safety while covering stories like Boko Haram-conscripted teen girl suicide bombers or young women in small villages shaking up social norms by getting out of bad marriages. Ultimately, Searcey returns home to reconcile with skinned knees and school plays that happen without her and a begrudging husband thrown into the role of primary parent. Life, for Searcey, as with most of us, is a balancing act. She weaves a tapestry of women living at the crossroads of old-fashioned patriarchy and an increasingly globalized and connected world. The result is a deeply personal and highly compelling look into a modern-day marriage and a world most of us have barely considered.
Sounds of Fear and Wonder by Janet K. Halfyard Pdf
Characters and plot developments, similarly, are enhanced by their musical accompaniment. The different scoring strategies employed in supernatural and horror-based genres, comprising for example True Blood and Supernatural, are considered alongside cult shows set in our reality, such as Dexter, The Sopranos and 24. These discussions are complimented by in-depth case studies of musical approaches in two high-profile series: Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Hannibal. Written from a musicological standpoint but fully accessible to non-musicologists, the book significantly advances television and music studies.

A New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice 'It gets under the skin of this extraordinary time in a way that few historical novels do. Sayles writes superbly about the confusion of warfare and deals equally well with the horrors of the plantations...This is a first-rate historical novel told with wit, verve and a subtle understanding of the mechanics of the genre.' - The New York Times Book Review "John Sayles is a living master." - Jennifer Haigh, author of Faith Spanning 13 years, two continents, several wars, and many smoke-filled and bloody battlefields, John Sayles’s thrilling historical and cinematic epic invites comparison with Diana Gabaldon, George R. R. Martin, Phillippa Gregory, and Charles Dickens. It begins in the highlands of Scotland in 1746, at the Battle of Culloden, the last desperate stand of the Stuart ‘pretender’ to the throne of the Three Kingdoms, Bonnie Prince Charlie, and his rabidly loyal supporters. Vanquished with his comrades by the forces of the Hanoverian (and Protestant) British crown, the novel’s eponymous hero, Jamie MacGillivray, narrowly escapes a roadside execution only to be recaptured by the victors and shipped to Marshalsea Prison (central to Charles Dickens’s Hard Times) where he cheats the hangman a second time before being sentenced to transportation and indentured servitude in colonial America "for the term of his natural life." His travels are paralleled by those of Jenny Ferguson, a poor, village girl swept up on false charges by the English and also sent in chains to the New World. The novel follows Jamie and Jenny through servitude, revolt, escape, and romantic entanglements -- pawns in a deadly game. The two continue to cross paths with each other and with some of the leading figures of the era- the devious Lord Lovat, future novelist Henry Fielding, the artist William Hogarth, a young and ambitious George Washington, the doomed General James Wolfe, and the Lenape chief feared throughout the Ohio Valley as Shingas the Terrible. A DELUXE EDITION with a brilliant design. 700 PAGES of a thrilling, historical, and cinematic epic!
