Annie O'Shay, an Irish-tempered field journalist who's been hurt before, decides to give Talos Sophacletes, a Greek shipping company CEO and male chauvinistic womanizer, a rare glimpse into her scarred heart when the two find themselves entangled on his private Greek island. Behind his rough exterior, Talos hides a deep secret that has left him a changed man; he has no desire to find love, but he can't deny that there is something about Annie that won't allow him to just sample her goodness and leave her behind. When their two worlds collide, both are left to decide between a holiday fling or the possibility of happily-ever-after.

What makes us who we are? Is it life's big milestones that propel us from childhood to adulthood? Or are we made of all the little memories that have a way of standing in for so much more? A friend's itchy chin might be how you remember him. A pair of worn corduroys might be what you remember of your first love. A green-eyed boy on a subway platform might be how you remember a breakthrough. A coffee cup in a blizzard might be how you remember your best friend. The sound of a dial-up modem connecting. The wet stems of lily pads in your dad's hands. A spiral of hairs on a cheek. The outline of keys in a pocket. Blue paint under fingernails. Fireworks on a summer night. These details are like pulses, like heartbeat spikes on the cardiac line of memory. In the twelve stories in THE YOUTH & YOUNG LOVES OF OLIVER WADE, Ben Monopoli shows us these pulses in the life of our narrator Ollie as he grows from age thirteen to twenty-eight. Pulses that define who Ollie is, and ultimately who he'll become. A stand-alone companion to THE PAINTING OF PORCUPINE CITY and THE CRANBERRY HUSH.

*Includes pictures *Includes accounts of the tragedy by survivors, witnesses and rescuers *Includes online resources and a bibliography for further reading *Includes a table of contents "And then movement caught my eye. I looked across the river. As I watched in disoriented stupefaction a steamer large as an ocean liner slowly turned over on its side as though it were a whale going to take a nap. I didn't believe a huge steamer had done this before my eyes, lashed to a dock, in perfectly calm water, in excellent weather, with no explosion, no fire, nothing. I thought I had gone crazy." - Jack Woodford, writer The Great Lakes have claimed countless thousands of vessels over the course of history, including swallowing up gigantic freighters like the Edmund Fitzgerald, the largest ship of its day to sail the Great Lakes and still the largest to lie below Lake Superior's murky depths. Given the dangerous conditions and precarious history associated with America's largest freshwater lakes, it's somewhat ironic that the deadliest maritime disaster took place in Chicago aboard a ship that capsized while docked to a pier. When people discuss deadly maritime disasters during the second decade of the 20th century in which more than 800 people were killed, they're often talking about the Titanic or Lusitania, not the Eastland on the Chicago River. However, shockingly enough, on July 24, 1915, a ship full of sightseers out for a day on the Great Lakes capsized while still tied to a dock, sending more than 2,500 passengers into the frigid water. By the time the ship was righted and rescue efforts were completed, nearly 850 people had been killed. As unbelievable as the incident seemed, the Eastland was actually susceptible to just such a problem as a result of its issues with listing, and on top of that, the ship seemed to have all sorts of bad luck in its past, including a collision with another boat and even a mutiny on board. If anything, the safety protocols established after the sinking of the Titanic, most notably the inclusion of enough lifeboats on board for every passenger, made the Eastland even more top heavy and contributed to the disaster. Ultimately, several individuals were charged with crimes in connection with the Eastland disaster, but none would be found guilty. The SS Eastland Disaster: The History of the Deadliest Shipwreck on the Great Lakes chronicles the story of the disaster and its aftermath. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about the Eastland like never before, in no time at all.

"A well-crafted tale of murder begotten by the collision of two incompatible worlds." -Kirkus Reviews SOME AMISH COMMUNITIES AREN'T SO COZY Lamb to the Slaughter, the first book in Serenity's Plain Secrets, is the story about the intertwining lives of three unlikely people in an Indiana Amish Community and the devastating results when a rebellious teenage girl is found shot to death in a corn field during the harvest. Serenity Adams is the newly elected young sheriff in the rural town of Blood Rock, and besides dealing with the threatening behavior of her predecessor, she now has a dead Amish girl on her plate. At first glance, the case seems obvious. The poor girl was probably accidently shot during hunting season, but when the elders of the Amish community, and even the girl's parents, react with uncaring subdued behavior, Serenity becomes suspicious. As she delves deeper into the secretive community that she grew up beside, she discovers a gruesome crime from the past that may very well be related to the Amish girl's shooting. Serenity enlists the help of the handsome bad-boy building contractor, Daniel Bachman. He left the Amish when he was nineteen and has his own dark reasons to help the spunky sheriff solve the crime that the family and friends who shunned him are trying desperately to cover up. Serenity's persistence leads her to a stunning discovery that not only threatens to destroy her blossoming romance with Daniel, but may even take her life in the end.

Now and then, most of us have felt a need to stop what we're doing to think about life's biggest questions. They've been on the minds of the world's greatest thinkers as far back as history goes. But not all of us are great thinkers. Some of us want to understand without doing the hard work. Learning about the secrets of existence might seem to be a job for doctors of science and philosophy, but really this information needs to be out there for everyone. So in a straight forward step by step guide, here are the good, intellectual reasons to believe in a higher power and Christianity. Because knowing God should be as easy as learning the alphabet.

AMIR KHUSRAU: SELECTED POEMS Translation & Introduction by Paul Smith Amir Khusrau (1253-1324), the 'Parrot of India' was born at Patigali near the Ganges in India. At the age of thirty-six he was poet-laureate, serving many sultans. He was not only fluent in Persian, in which he composed the majority of his 92 books, but also in Arabic, Hindi and Sanskrit. He composed ten long masnavis, five Divans of ghazals and other poems and many prose works. He was a Master musician and invented the sitar. The Perfect Master Nizam ud-din took him as his disciple and eventually he became God-realized. He rebelled against narrow spirituality and helped redefine the true Sufi way. He was a profound influence on Hafiz and is seen as the link between Sadi and Hafiz in updating the form and content of the ghazal and eroticising it. This is the largest selection of his poems in English. Introduction is on his Life & Times & Poetry and the Forms in which he wrote and on Sufism & Poetry. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept and the meaning of these beautiful, enlightened poems. 219 pagesCOMMENTS ON PAUL SMITH'S TRANSLATION OF HAFIZ'S 'DIVAN'."It is not a joke... the English version of ALL the ghazals of Hafiz is a great feat and of paramount importance. I am astonished. If he comes to Iran I will kiss the fingertips that wrote such a masterpiece." Dr. Mir Mohammad Taghavi (Dr. of Literature) Tehran."Superb translations. 99% Hafiz 1% Paul Smith." Ali Akbar Shapurzman, translator of works into Persian and knower of Hafiz's Divan off by heart. "Smith has probably put together the greatest collection of literary facts and history concerning Hafiz." Daniel Ladinsky (Penguin Books author). "I was very impressed with the beauty of these books." Dr. R.K. Barz. Faculty of Asian Studies, Australian National University.Paul Smith is a poet, author and translator of over 80 books of Sufi poets of the Persian, Arabic, Urdu, Turkish, Pashtu and other languages including Hafiz, Sadi, Nizami, Rumi, 'Attar, Sana'i, Jahan Khatun, Obeyd Zakani, Mu'in, Amir Khusrau, Nesimi, Kabir, Anvari, Ansari, Jami, Omar Khayyam, Rudaki, Yunus Emre, Shah Latif, Bulleh Shah and many others, and his own poetry, fiction, plays, biographies, children's books, screenplays. amazon.com/author/smithpa Published by New Humanity Books

Movie publicist Tom Miller (who used the name Canford for his writings) had before his death written a memoir, A Fever of the Mad, about his experiences working on the troubled production of Elaine May's Mikey and Nicky and Francis Coppola's The Cotton Club, that manuscript edited and published by his surviving friend Jonathan May. In later years May wrote down his memories of what he had been told by Tom of his experience on other movies, and with the tales having first come from the publicist himself, he decided it only appropriate to list Canford as first author. Movies discussed include the original Shaft, Ryan's Daughter, Blow Out, The Gang that Couldn't Shoot Straight, The Wrath of God, The Last American Hero, and two directed by Paul Newman. Actors encountered include Robert Mitchum, Rita Hayworth on the last film she completed, Jeff Bridges, Frank Langella, Joanne Woodward, Bruce Dern, Donald Sutherland, John Travolta, and Lynn Redgrave.

No-one would believe that the impossible was happening all over again.

A comedy horror play -Strange occurrences are unfolding in Mrs. Abernathy's High School homeroom. With more than half of her students absent or tardy, and eerie chanting resonating from the hallway, an unsettling atmosphere pervades the classroom. Student Council President Heather Graves attributes the chants to the enigmatic janitor, Mr. Crowley, while Scott, an aficionado in Black Metal and Doom Core, adamantly insists they're incantations aimed at invoking an ancient Carpathian Curse upon the school.Meanwhile, Cody forewarns of an impending Zombie Apocalypse, adding to the mounting tension. Conversely, Kelsey offers a more grounded perspective, suggesting the disturbances could be attributed to a senior prank or perhaps a seasonal flu outbreak.Yet, as bizarre, zombie-like figures materialize at the threshold, the pressing question looms: who dares venture beyond the safety of homeroom to unravel the mysteries that beckon from the shadows?

Black Friday - the official opening of the Holiday Shopping Season - and Patrice Marcum is stuck in the middle of her local superstore with a crying infant, a near hysterical desire to just abandon the diapers and milk she desperately needs, and the snowstorm of the century dumping a half-foot of snow on the parking lot outside. She needs a miracle.The little old lady seemed sweet, but there was no way Patrice was going to leave three-month old Jeremy with a stranger. She looked outside at the snow-covered parking lot and saw yet another distressed shopper's cart topple over in the drifts. The old lady sensed her distress and volunteered to call a store employee to help watch over Jeremy while Patrice got her car. The older gentleman, wearing a store badge with the name "Ron," seemed too good to be true. What could be safer?Less than five minutes later, after brushing the snow off the van and driving across the crowded and snow-packed parking lot, Patrice pulls up in front of the store. Jeremy is not there. Pushing back panic, she rushes into the store and looks around. Jeremy is not inside either. She pushes through the line at Customer Service, the associate calls Ron on the intercom, and issues a Code Adam. When Ron appears and he's only seventeen years old, Patrice realizes the worst. "Oh God! They've taken my baby!"Mary O'Reilly, Private Investigator, is decorating her office for the holiday season when the newly installed bell over her door jingles.

"No, I guess you can talk to them.""That'll be helpful.""But you can't tell my mom you're working for me," he said, "Promise?""Yes, I promise."Joey shrugged. "I don't think she'd understand, seeing that I'm dead, you know."

Byzantine EmpireAccording to history books, the Roman Empire ended in 476 CE with the fall of Rome. But if you asked most people alive at that time, they would have pointed you to what they considered the continuation of the Roman Empire-the civilization we now call the Byzantine Empire. The Byzantines, however, were more than just a remnant of Roman glory. At its geographical peak, the Byzantine Empire stretched out across the Mediterranean world. Culturally, the Byzantines both preserved the knowledge of the classical world, much of which was lost in the West, and added to it. Inside you will read about...- A Divided Empire- The Fall of the West- Rising to Glory- An Age of War- The Destruction of Icons- The House of Macedon- The Comnenian Revival- The Final DeclineAnd much more! Shaped by its classical roots, its Christian religion, and the changing medieval world, the story of the Byzantine Empire is one of both glorious victories and terrible defeats, of a civilization that rose from the brink of destruction again and again, and of the development of a culture whose vestiges remain today.

Bergmetal is an exploratory tract on the trisonic intersections of MOUNTAINS, MYSTICISM, and HEAVY METAL. Mixing theoretical reflection and studious redaction into ascending gestures of alpine musical thought, the book proceeds via seven poetic emblems plus commentary addressing works by Bathory, Darkthrone, Sleep, Aluk Todolo, Omega Massif, Schrei aus Stein, and Sapthuran. Opening essays by the authors on the ideals and history of the bergmetal genre provide a logistical starting point and contextual basecamp.Published by HWORDE"A casual email...a voidal exposure...! In this slim volume, metal, lyrics, and philosophy combine - "with spirit deathless, endless, infinite" - to launch a ferocious assault on the imagination!" - Manabrata Guha, Prize Fellow, Univ. of Bath"A strange creature I am now, burnt by the sun and yet frozen, clung onto my will to take just another step" -- Stormcrow"Metal! Mysticism! Mountains! Whoever loves one will be interested in this book. Whoever loves two will like it. Whoever loves all three may be in paradise." - Nicola Masciandaro (Brooklyn College)"An ascent into the wilderness of alpine aesthetics and heavy metallurgies, with poetry, mysticism, and esoteric philosophy illuminating the peaks and abysses of sublime human experience alongside the indifferent expanse of geological time." -- RH, Schrei aus Stein
