The Mansion on Hummingbird Hill
A stately mansion sits atop the crest of Hummingbird Hill on the outskirts of Big Spring, Texas. This is the tale of that mansion and the trials and tribulations experienced by its inhabitants over the years, as it goes from the family home of James “Buck” Henderson and his wife, June, to one of the South’s most elegant “sporting” houses, to a home for runaways, and finally, a family home again. It is a tale of love, hate, rape, incest, murder, and intrigue. The story begins with Buck Henderson’s early years in Philadelphia, to his heroism during World War I, his battlefield promotions and medals for bravery, including the Congressional Medal of Honor, his recovery in a Denver hospital, and his marriage to June. After securing an engineering degree at Penn State, Buck and June set out for Big Spring, Texas, where they find success in the oil field supply business and raise a family, but their happiness is followed by rape, murder, and the sale of their beloved mansion.
The Littlest God
Reuben Ortozo is four feet two inches tall, but he doesn't let that stop him. The appellate courtroom that he presides in sells decisions as if they had been placed on an online auction site. The California Supreme Court has to review enough of the bought decisions, and the corruption becomes obvious. The judges don't want to turn the appellate division in because they upheld many of the decisions. The Chief Judge connives to force an honest judge off the bench after planting the idea of nominating Reuben Ortotzo in the mind of California's governor, Brian Bryan. After being seated on the court it becomes apparent that Reuben is still doing business with his former collegues, and becoming a sore spot for his fellow colleagues who now feel a need to protect him, so that they can protect the court's reputation. The Chief Justice attempts to persuade Reuben to change his ways, but Reuben reminds him that the court protects their own, and he's one of their own. With no alternatives the court finds Reuben Ortotzo guilty in absentia, and sentences him to death with special circumstances. They hire a hit man to carry out the sentence.

Novel Approaches in Microbiome Analyses and Data Visualization
High-throughput sequencing technologies are widely used to study microbial ecology across species and habitats in order to understand the impacts of microbial communities on host health, metabolism, and the environment. Due to the dynamic nature of microbial communities, longitudinal microbiome analyses play an essential role in these types of investigations. Key questions in microbiome studies aim at identifying specific microbial taxa, enterotypes, genes, or metabolites associated with specific outcomes, as well as potential factors that influence microbial communities. However, the characteristics of microbiome data, such as sparsity and skewedness, combined with the nature of data collec...
