Jack Chandler-living on the fifth planet in the Altair Star System-is driven by alien spirits. He sends four powerful and invisible energy crystals from that world, to Earth. The plan is to reenergize twelve dormant alien satellites in Earth's orbit. Four individuals, in their twenties, on Earth have a gift-they can see a higher spectrum of light on the EM band. They can see the invisible crystals. They must place their ordinary lives on the sidelines and find the crystals at four different locations. With the passing of each hour the satellites are one step closer to coming online. If the satellites become active, an energy grid will form and encompass the planet. All animation on Earth will be suspended and beams will come down and pull all of the inhabitants from the surface. Brian Mathews, Jerome Shay, Lisa Tsung and Steve Ryder will have to be dauntless when they attempt to locate, and send the crystals back, through a wormhole. Their tasks will be difficult because Jack Chandler, with the use of hypnosis, secures the help of several big men on Earth. His puppets will be relentless as they try to stop the crystals from being returned-and try to kill Earth's four saviors.

I previously published Bounty under my old name, Bobbi Schemerhorn. Bobbi Kerr is my new name. If you have already purchased it, simply update your reader. But I assure you, I am the same author.

Rion and Temis are responsible for locating ...
The world of text mining is simultaneously a minefield and a gold mine. It is an exciting application field and an area of scientific research that is currently under rapid development. It uses techniques from well-established scientific fields (e.g. data mining, machine learning, information retrieval, natural language processing, case based reasoning, statistics and knowledge management) in an effort to help people gain insight, understand and interpret large quantities of (usually) semi-structured and unstructured data. Despite the advances made during the last few years, many issues remain umesolved. Proper co-ordination activities, dissemination of current trends and standardisation of the procedures have been identified, as key needs. There are many questions still unanswered, especially to the potential users; what is the scope of Text Mining, who uses it and for what purpose, what constitutes the leading trends in the field of Text Mining -especially in relation to IT- and whether there still remain areas to be covered.
As western-style food systems extend further around the world, food sustainability is becoming an increasingly important issue. Such systems are not sustainable in terms of their consumption of resources, their impact on ecosystems or their effect on health and social inequality. From 2009 to 2011, the duALIne project, led by INRA and CIRAD, assembled a team of experts to investigate food systems downstream of the farm, from the farm gate, to consumption and the disposal of waste. Representing a diverse range of backgrounds spanning academia and the public and private sectors, the project aimed to review the international literature and identify major gaps in our knowledge. This book brings together its key conclusions and insights, presenting state-of-the-art research in food sustainability and identifying priority areas for further study. It will provide a valuable resource for researchers, decision-makers and stakeholders in the food industry.
