Unbeatable is the uplifting story of the 2018 West Allegheny High School boys soccer team and the season that culminated with a Pennsylvania state soccer championship, the first in program history. The story focuses on the journey of the “Magnificent Seven” senior class, and the team that shared a magical 2018 season. This is a group of boys that have shared a close friendship since the 1st grade, and some even longer. A group that is more than just teammates on the field, they are friends and brothers off of it. We highlight the ups and downs, and the challenges we faced in the early years. Unbeatable looks in depth at the families, the great wins, and the tough losses that we experienced over the years. We take a close look at the emotional games that put a stamp on a legendary 2018 soccer season. Unbeatable is a fun, positive, and uplifting look at this unexpected journey.

Il s'y est hissé jusqu'au sommet, devenant le directeur puissant et extravagamment riche d'une banque.

Situation qui ne plaît ni aux proches de Jacques, ni à la famille Wurst potentielle héritière. Une mère perdue, une compagne enceinte, une famille peu recommandable, des milliards de dollars en jeu.

Hailing from the big cities and small towns of America, these young men came together to serve their country and the greater good. They were the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 82nd Airborne Division (the All Americans). Phil Nordyke, their official historian, draws on interviews with surviving veterans and oral history recordings as well as official archives and unpublished written accounts from more than three hundred veterans of the 505th PIR and their supporting units. This is history as it was lived by the men of the 505th, from their prewar coming of age in the regiment, through the end of World War II, when they marched in the Victory Parade up Fifth Avenue in New York, to the postwar legacy of having been part of an elite parachute regiment with a record unsurpassed in the annals of combat.
Moral Habitat explores how our moral imaginations and moral norms have been shaped by and even cocreated with Earth in diverse biotic communities. Weaving together science and religion with indigenous and womanist traditions, Nancie Erhard uses examples from a variety of sources, including post-Cartesian science, the Old Testament, and the Mi ́kmaq tribe of Eastern Canada. She demonstrates how each portrays the agency—including the moral agency—of the natural world. From this cross-cultural approach, she recasts the question of how we conceive of humans as moral agents. While written for "the sake of Earth," this thought-provoking book goes well beyond the issue of ecology to show the contribution that such an approach can make to pluralist ethics on a range of timely social issues.
