I became a tortoise teacher. I stuck my head out of my room when my class entered my classroom and when they exited my classroom. Otherwise, my classroom stayed locked. The young man's pants were ripped from A to Z. He sat in front of me and refused to close his legs. God wanted me to tell the world that Mississippi White educators were no longer the solely responsible for the inadequate education that poor Black students received. He wanted the world to know that African Americans educators and administrators had failed to properly educate and discipline His children. And, He wanted the world to know that sound education is not dependent upon dollars but upon dedication.
After a less than exciting summer in their small Texas town, two young women plot a midnight adventure. Kate and her cousin, Vicki, decide to try to sneak a ride on two international show horses that have been sitting idle since the untimely death of their rider, Hunter Bastian, son of Randolph Bastian who is the only person still residing at the estate. The elderly owner and father has become very withdrawn since his son's death. The entire adventure seems a success until Kate trips over the body of Mr. Bastian who has been brutally murdered.

God Rocks! Or at least for an increasing fraction of the global population he does. No longer associated with evangelical 'happy clappers' sporting tambourines and sandals, these days the Christian message is being delivered by a swelling number of faithful musicians from every genre - rock, pop, R&B, dance and country. Of course, the real aim to promote God remains, but at least it's not so cringeworthy anymore.

We have long lorded over the ocean. But only recently have we become aware of the myriad life-forms beneath its waves. We now know that this delicate ecosystem is our life-support system; it regulates the earth’s temperatures and climate and comprises 99 percent of living space on earth. So when we change the chemistry of the whole ocean system, as we are now, life as we know it is threatened. In Seasick, veteran science journalist Alanna Mitchell dives beneath the surface of the world’s oceans to give readers a sense of how this watery realm can be managed and preserved, and with it life on earth. Each chapter features a different group of researchers who introduce readers to the import...

This book, drawing on wide experience of the Isle of Man, describes, interprets and explains the features that make the Island’s physical and human landscapes so distinctive and give it a unique sense of place. Although the editors have taken a strongly geographical approach to their theme, the book is unparalleled in writings on the Isle of Man in the broad range of contributions it has assembled: geology, quaternary science, geomorphology, archaeology, history, natural history, political science, demography, social policy and economics. The book definitively reviews current geographical knowledge relating to the Isle of Man, bringing together hitherto fragmented, scattered and inaccessible work. Particular emphasis is placed upon the way in which geographers are returning to their intellectual roots with a renewed focus on both the distinctiveness and sense of place. By helping readers to understand the processes that formed, and continue to change, the Isle of Man’s unique physical and human landscapes, this book aims both to inform and to enhance enjoyment of the Island.
