James is a labradoodle that lives on a farm with three other dogs, Biscuit a maltese, Snickers a terrier, and Sammy a basset hound. James does silly things like rolling in something smelly, chasing squirrels. He even pooped in a woman's shoes because she was mean to him. All of the dogs like to try to take human food off of the table. When the dogs take food from the table they would end up out in the barn with no food. One day a wise old great dane named Shephard comes to visit. He likes to play with the dogs. When it comes time for the humans to eat, the dogs are tempted to eat human food. Shephard warns them it is not a good idea. Snickers completely ignores Shephard and goes for the food. He's able to grab a sandwich before his owner takes the food away and Snickers ends up in the barn. Biscuit says loudly to everyone that she will not eat the food. But she doesn't have the will power and immediately tries to take food from a little girl. She ends up in the barn. Sammy doesn't take any food at first, but he starts to complain about how hungry he is and the food looks so good. He tries to take food and ends up in the barn. James listens to Shephard and does not get in trouble. Because he was so good the humans give him some table food. The book follows the book of Mark, Chapter 4, verses 3 to 8.

Singles, Separated and Divorced
With nearly half of the world's population one of the aforementioned, it makes sense to write a cook book aimed at supporting all those that enjoy cooking and food.The challenge here is working with such small quantities, as the results are very dependent upon every aspect and element.The size, width, depth and type of pan used for cooking for example, the thickness of its base, the material used within its production, all before placing it on the heat elements used to cook the recipe!.

End of Flower Power
This is not an analysis or a dissertation on the rise and fall of the movement known as Flower Power. It is but one of many stories that took place at the end of that memorable era.It is the last year of the tumultuous sixties when Case, a young officer in the Merchant Marine, signs on as third mate on the S.S. Flower Power, an old rusty freighter on its last legs bound for India. Within a day he realizes that the crew is scraped together from the four corners of the world and that that motley bunch of ruffians is commanded by a chaotic Greek captain whom he nicknamed "Peachfuzz".During a stopover in Manila the animosities between the crew members vanish as George, an able-bodied seaman, meets the prostitute Carmen and falls for her like a ton of bricks. She is the perfect answer to his troubled soul. He intends to marry her and adopt her little daughter at any cost.But how is he going to pull this off in just eight hours?The entire crew conspires to sneak the future bride and her three-year old daughter aboard so that the captain can marry them once they are on the high seas. Peachfuzz however is unaware of the covert operation. He'd just as soon throw the stowaways overboard to avoid any hassle with the authorities.But Case, who is inadvertently drawn into this conspiracy, has a secret weapon with which he can convince Peachfuzz into performing a marriage on the high seas in the best of maritime traditions. After chaotic preparations and a hilarious ceremony George and Carmen were joined in marriage by Captain Peachfuzz. It was a wedding to remember and it fused the bitterly divided crew into a solid corps by coming to the rescue of a desperate shipmate.Was this all part of a predetermined plan or was it pure coincidence that this took place on a ship with the very same name as that of the roaring Flower Power Era? Or was this union of two lovers just one of the last hurrah's of this turbulent decade?

Curling In Cornwall 1784 - 1908
Although often described as distinctly Canadian, primarily for the enlightenment of curlers as well as scholars studying the social evolution of Canada, curling transcends its historical roots in Canada, extending back further than the formal establishment of the nation-state. Canada's prolonged interaction with this pastime has, quite predictably, led to a national association with its progression and innovation. The narrative and historical journey of curling in and around Cornwall traces its origins back to the era when the area was first settled by Loyalists, and continues through to the sport's temporary decline in 1908.

Titanic
The Thirtieth Anniversary Edition of the first book to expose the TITANIC cover-up.In over 100 years there have been literally thousands of books written on the catastrophic maiden voyage of the RMS TITANIC. Even though the truth was known in 1912, questions, myths, and lies persist about that fateful night.Why was the TITANIC on a route that put her in the most perilous of ice-congested sea lanes?Why did TITANIC choose not to launch regulation distress rockets in her effort to summon help?Why did TITANIC turn away a German ship in favor of a British rescuer?How did a fire in the ship's forward bunkers impact the structural integrity of the ship?Above all, how did an impending World War and the deteriorating relationships between Britain, Germany, and the United States-largely over the merchant domination of the world's shipping lanes-set forth an unbreakable chain of events that put the Titanic two and a half miles beneath the surface of the North Atlantic, taking her captain, her logbook, and the truth with her?As TITANIC: Sinking the Myths meticulously demonstrates, the real root cause of the disaster was greed, multiplied by an imperative schedule, and wrapped up in a conspiracy to cover up White Star's policy to put profits over the lives of the passengers.Thirty years ago, in this book's fifirst edition, Diana Bristow unraveled the myths to give the original, no-stone-unturned account of the events that led up to-and followed-the sinking of the TITANIC. Bristow goes right to the heart and source of the campaign of deception that served only one purpose, to protect J.P. Morgan, the White Star Line, and all their investors from astronomical liability and financial ruin if the captain, crew, or management were found negligent in the events that led to the sinking of the TITANIC. Never before had any researcher ever so deeply studied the rules, laws, regulations, and economic and political factors that ultimately led to the deaths of 1,500 people.Bristow's long-sought-after book, out of print for thirty years, is now presented here in an updated edition. Once you've read TITANIC: Sinking the Myths, you will understand why it's the first-and last-book you ever need to read about the most infamous maritime disaster in peacetime history.
Risky Fertility Behaviour and Neonatal Mortality Risk in Nigeria
Neonatal mortality which refers to the death of a newborn within the first 28 days of life has remained a significant public health concern, especially in low-income countries where the rates remain high. On the other hand, risky fertility behaviour including early childbearing, high parity, and inadequate spacing between pregnancies, has been identified as a major contributing factor to neonatal mortality. Previous studies have found that early childbearing and high parity have been associated with increased risks of preterm birth, low birth weight, and neonatal mortality. Furthermore, inadequate spacing between pregnancies can lead to adverse neonatal outcomes due to maternal depletion and increased risk of complications during pregnancy and childbirth. However, good health-seeking behaviour, antenatal care attendance, facility, and skilled birth delivery no doubt play a crucial role in reducing the risk of neonatal mortality, especially among young mothers. Hence, in this book, using data from Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS), we explore the correlation between risky fertility behaviour and neonatal mortality rates among adolescent mothers in Northern Nigeria characterized by a high prevalence of early childbirth and poor health-seeking behaviour. Findings from the study reported in this book provide additional evidence linking risky fertility and adverse neonatal outcomes and the mediating effect of good health-seeking behaviour. In part, this book recommends empowering young mothers and promoting healthy pregnancies for a brighter future.

Are We There Yet
The poems in Jacob Chapman's Are We There Yet with verve explore the paradoxical world we live in. Familiar landscapes made brilliantly unfamiliar. Unfamiliar people made meaningfully familiar. To be with these poems is to open oneself up to the great depths of feeling and thinking that a substantive engagement with paradox can reveal. The poems in Are We There Yet point to something vital and expansive about the strangeness we live in - "So thanks for the triangles. / I didn't know what to do with them/ at first, but now I do." These poems are patient and playful. They are perceptive and poignant. Read these poems and then read them again. -Emily Pettit, author of Goat in the Snow and Blue Flame
