Off Limits: The Celebrity
She’s a loner who can’t get a date. He’s a rockstar who needs fewer dates. A summer job might solve both their problems. For Julianna Barrow, working at a resort for the summer is the easiest decision she’s ever made. Anything to escape her small town and avoid the bleak future that awaits her back home. Unfortunately, when she arrives it turns out the job is less resort and more wannabe ranch. Then Scott Dallenforth, the rockstar/actor/anything-that-will-make-him-money, shows up, dressed in a flannel shirt and a cowboy hat, as if he expects to rope steer for the next three months. And he expects Julianna to help. Scott Dallenforth’s rise to fame as a musician three years earlier g...
Unleashed
He wrote about vigilantes during the Covid lockdowns. What could possibly go wrong? Grant McLachlan is a researcher and writer who has exposed dirty politics at local and central government level. With a background in law and town planning, he moved to the sleepy seaside suburb of Snells Beach to convalesce. Walking his dog along the esplanade provided routine and social interaction with the large dog walking community. A group of beachfront Boomers had other ideas. Under the guise of the ratepayers’ association and Neighbourhood Support, they chipped away at banning the predominant activities of beach users. The priggish, Nimby killjoys targeted everyone from developers, picnickers, motor...
Blood of the Prophets
The massacre at Mountain Meadows on September 11, 1857, was the single most violent attack on a wagon train in the thirty-year history of the Oregon and California trails. Yet it has been all but forgotten. Will Bagley’s Blood of the Prophets is an award-winning, riveting account of the attack on the Baker-Fancher wagon train by Mormons in the local militia and a few Paiute Indians. Based on extensive investigation of the events surrounding the murder of over 120 men, women, and children, and drawing from a wealth of primary sources, Bagley explains how the murders occurred, reveals the involvement of territorial governor Brigham Young, and explores the subsequent suppression and distortion of events related to the massacre by the Mormon Church and others.
Re-Imaging Modernity
This is a book about Christianity in one particular region in Kenya. It walks into churches, listens to sermons, dances to music, and interviews the people sitting in the pews, all with the aim of understanding how spiritual power enables these churches to function as agents within their contemporary society. Ecclesiastical communities in Africa draw upon divine power in order to engage in modernity-related topics. Humans are not unresponsive to global flows of meaning; they are integrative agents who fashion their world by living in it. The kind of modernity arising from these churches does not blindly follow Western forms, but flows from its own internal logic in which spiritual power occupies central hermeneutical function. Theological resources contribute to the formation of sociological expressions. Divine power pertains directly to human constructs, which then allows the churches to actively "image" God for the development of unique forms of modernity arising on the continent.

Multipurpose Prevention Technologies for HIV, STIs & Pregnancies
Globally, women of reproductive age face two overlapping issues that have a significant impact on their health and well-being: unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV. A growing body of research indicates that the majority of women across geographies, ages, racial and ethnic backgrounds would prefer a multipurpose prevention technology (MPT) that combines protection against pregnancy and HIV/STIs versus individual products for contraception and disease prevention. Currently, male and female condoms are the only available MPTs. A wider range of MPT options will help women select methods that they are less apt to discontinue, as well as increase uptake by...

Multipurpose Prevention Technologies: Call for Innovative Strategies to Address Critical Priorities and Gaps
The HIV/sexually transmitted infection (STI) syndemics and the unmet need for modern contraceptive methods continue to pose significant health risks for women and other people worldwide. As awareness of the need to address these interlinked risks has increased, the need for new technologies that combine protection against unintended pregnancy, HIV and other STIs is a growing research priority. Multipurpose Prevention Technologies (MPTs) are products that simultaneously prevent HIV, other STIs, and/or unintended pregnancy. They have power to revolutionize women's health by providing prevention for multiple indications.
