The Green Bloods
In the early part of the 20th century millions of Irish citizens made their way to America in one of the greatest ethnic migrations in recorded history. Some came to escape poverty and hardship, others to avoid religious persecution and the violence that accompanied it. If pressed, most would say-“To Build A Better Life.” But Jack Nolan came for guns. In doing so he set in motion a series of events that would shatter one family and bring another to the very heights of power. THE GREEN BLOODS- RESURGENCE is part of a multigenerational saga that follows the fortunes and the failings of the Nolan's and the O'Leary's from the year 1914 to present day, set against the historical events that shaped twentieth century Ireland and Irish Americans. As a new country struggles to emerge from centuries of oppression, old friendships are tested and ultimately destroyed. Love is found and lost. Greed, corruption, drugs, and violence defi ne lives and darken even the purest of souls. And now, three generations later, two siblings once separated by an ocean, each committed to inheriting an empire, with one sibling bent on destroying the other. THE GREEN BLOODS.
Death of a Schemer
Frank May’s law office is in San Mateo, California, and his practice often deals with wills and estates. Dead clients are an essential part of an estates practice, but these are, for almost everybody, quite natural deaths. Yet somehow, through some quirk of fate, unnatural deaths seem to plague Frank’s clients and those close to them. And he gets drawn into these mysterious affairs. Andrew Wright, a schemer if there ever was one, was not exactly a client. Andrew had befriended a woman well past her mental prime, living in a big house in Palo Alto. Andrew took over the house, renting out rooms to a mixed group of people. Then Andrew came to Frank with a hare-brained plan: to install camer...
Send Me Safe My Somebody
Its 1969 and American pilot, Paul Winslow, has been shot down and captured in Vietnam. In a love story that transcends time, Sarah Fremont, a San Francisco hotel executive, comes to believe that she has known and loved him in more than one previous life. Is it possible? Could Sarah have been the gentle Yoshiko in 17th century Japan? The beautiful Marguerite in 18th century Italy? The tempestuous Rosella in 19th century France? Pete Winslow, Pauls father, is a retired army officer baffled by the violence associated with the opposition to Americas role in Vietnam. Pauls mother, Merrie Winslow, though seemingly fragile, has been the quiet strength behind her family for so many years that she finds it impossible to share her terrible anguish with a husband who depends upon her for stability. Sheila Winslow Koslowsky Donnelly, Pauls sister, follows a dangerous path in an effort to get her fathers attention. When Sarah joins Pete and Merrie in the quest for information about Americans missing or held prisoner, she finds herself torn between reality and dreams. Will Paul and Sarah find each other in this life or must they wait for still another?
Parasitic Flatworms
This book examines recent research into the molecular biology, genomics and transcriptomics of, and novel control strategies for, flatworm parasites. These include Cestodes (tapeworms) and Trematodes (flukes, schistosomes etc), which are the cause of a number of diseases of medical and veterinary importance. The book explores three main areas: phylogeny, genetics and transcriptomes; immunobiology, host-parasite interaction and control; and protein function, metabolism and physiology. Where appropriate, comparisons are made between different parasitic flatworms and between parasitic and free-living species. The book concludes by exploring future avenues for research. Contributors to the book include leading authorities from Europe, North and South America, and Australia.
Love at Sunset
For my friend who was considering moving aboard, The Liveaboards was the perfect gift. The novel presents a true picture of this lifestyle. Heartland Boating Magazine 2008 was a humdinger, economically, politically, and emotionally. People who live on boats at Sunset Marina didnt escape the turmoil of the stock market taking a dive, $5 a gallon fuel at marina pumps, and a black American becoming President. Love at Sunset is a contemporary romance that continues the lives of liveaboards on Lake Guntersville in northern Alabama during this volatile time. Genuine liveaboards are people who own no land-based property. At Sunset Marina, they are homogeneous in feeling aff ection for their own boa...
Parasites and Allergy
The inverse correlation between allergic diseases and helminth infections has been debated for over 30 years. It was initially assumed that the underlying mechanism is an imbalance between Th1 and Th2 responses that, as a result of reduced exposure to Th1-inducing infectious pathogens, has tipped to allergic Th2 responses. It has only recently been clearly demonstrated that helminth infections have negative effects on allergic disease manifestation. This was shown to be consistent with the activity of regulatory cell populations, which control the effector mechanisms of both Th1 and Th2. In th.
Immunity to Helminths and Novel Therapeutic Approaches
This volume covers research on the interaction of major helminth parasites with the immune system. The main focus of the e-book is the ability of helminths to subvert host immune responses, on the one hand. On the other hand, the immunological armamentarium of the host against invading parasites is described also in the light of new findings on innate and adaptive immunity. These include the discovery of a new category of lymphocytes, innate lymphoid cells, and the role of T helper cels such as Th1, Th2 and Th3 cells, T regulatory (Treg) and Th17 cells in helminth diseases and inflammation. The balance between these two T cell subsets during the various stages of helminth diseases is also discussed. The book concludes with a review of new therapeutic approaches to combat helminth parasites (biotherapy, vaccines and natural products). Immunity to Helminths and Novel Therapeutic Approaches provides updated information for medical students, clinicians and researchers in the fields of parasitology, applied immunology and novel drug delivery.
