In a city hardened by cynicism and repression, comes Jake Santos. A hard edged veteran NYC Detective, who must come face to face with the day he never wished would ever come. Julie Ann Micheals, a young innocent woman in search of a new journey; she sets forth to the bright lights of the big city, looking for a new lease on life. Eusebio Santana, an individual so cold and relentless, to stare at him, is to gaze into the very fabric of death itself. Plagued by his years of wrongful incarceration, Eusebio orchestrates his release with the aid of an outside contractor whose own thirst for bloodshed overshadows his own; they set forth to reclaim the very streets which made him a feared man. With the entire city as their playground, the lives of Jake, Julie and Eusebio become intertwined game pieces as vindication and love become the trajectory for tragedy and triumph, for all three players. As the fall of a city becomes evident, so does the efforts of one man who must choose for the love of his city, the demise of his eluding enemy or for the love of a woman he has barely come to know........
We've all felt uncomfortable in our own skin at some point. But for Andrews, it wasn't a phase that would pass. He had been born in the body of a girl and there seemed to be no relief in sight. He details the journey that led him to make the life-transforming decision to undergo gender reassignment as a high school junior: the challenges he faced as a girl, the humiliation and anger he felt after getting kicked out of his private school, and all the mental and physical changes he experienced once his transition began.
Encargado como Moisés de ser “pastor de Israel”, hereda David las promesas hechas a los patriarcas, con mención sobresaliente para la de poseer la Tierra Prometida, cuya conquista definitiva es coronada con la de Jerusalén que será conocida y reconocida como “La Ciudad de David”, en torno a la cual se fragua la unidad de las tribus. Entre los muros de Jerusalén, David y la Casa de Israel formarán desde entonces un solo pueblo en torno a su Dios. Por desgracia son muchos los que olvidan esta promesa y su consecuente inserción y desarrollo en la historia. En el mismo contexto de contradicciones tan arcanas es urgente descubrir y asumir que la religión de David se fundamenta en la espera de la hora de Dios, actuando en conformidad con el modelo bíblico de los “pobres” que se abandonan en sus manos, con la certidumbre y confianza sublimes que da esperarlo todo de Él.
New in paperback Spring 2004, this is an indispensable guide to agaves. The uses of agaves are as many as the arts of man have found it convenient to devise. At least two races of man have invaded Agaveland during the last ten to fifteen thousand years, where, with the help of agaves, they contrived several successive civilizations. The region of greatest use development is Mesoamerica. Here the great genetic diversity in a genus rich in use potential came into the hands of several peoples who developed the main agricultural center of the Americas. Perhaps, as the Aztec legends suggest, it was the animals that first showed man the edibility of agave. Evolution in use ranges all the way from the coincidental and spurious, through tool and food-drink subsistence with mystical overlay, to the practical specialties of modem industry and art. The historic period of agave will be outlined here as briefly as that complicated development will allow.

Transitions from authoritarian to democratic governments can provide ripe scenarios for the emergence of new, insurgent political actors and causes. During peaceful transitions, such movements may become influential political players and gain representation for previously neglected interests and sectors of the population. But for this to happen, insurgent social movements need opportunities for mobilization, success, and survival. This book looks at Mexico's Zapatista movement, and why the movement was able to mobilize sympathy and support for the indigenous agenda inside and outside of the country, yet failed to achieve their goals vis-à-vis the Mexican state.
