In Overcoming Challenge: The Tar-Billy Way, Hamilton shares memories of growing up, getting his first truck driving job, going back to school, and moving into management within the trucking industry.

Nature Based Solutions to Prevent Urban Flooding
Urban flooding is an increasingly pressing challenge confronting cities worldwide. As urbanization accelerates and climate change intensifies, the frequency and severity of flooding events are on the rise, posing significant threats to lives, livelihoods, and infrastructure. In the face of this growing crisis, the imperative for effective and sustainable solutions has never been more urgent.This book, "Nature Based Solutions to Prevent Urban Flooding," authored by Shashikant Nishant Sharma and Dauda Ayuba, emerges as a timely and comprehensive resource offering insights, strategies, and practical approaches to mitigate urban flooding through nature-based interventions.The concept of nature-based solutions (NBS) harnesses the inherent resilience and adaptability of natural systems to address complex urban challenges. By integrating green infrastructure, ecosystem restoration, and sustainable land management practices, NBS offer a multifaceted approach to urban flood management that not only reduces flood risk but also enhances ecosystem services, improves urban livability, and fosters climate resilience.Drawing upon a wealth of interdisciplinary knowledge and practical experience, Sharma and Ayuba delve into the theoretical foundations, case studies, and best practices surrounding NBS implementation in urban environments. From the revitalization of urban wetlands and creation of green corridors to the promotion of permeable pavements and rainwater harvesting systems, this book explores a diverse array of NBS approaches tailored to specific urban contexts.Moreover, the authors highlight the economic, social, and environmental co-benefits associated with NBS adoption, underscoring the value proposition for policymakers, urban planners, engineers, and community stakeholders alike. Through a nuanced analysis of policy frameworks, governance mechanisms, and stakeholder engagement strategies, they elucidate the pathways toward mainstreaming NBS into urban planning and decision-making processes.As we stand at a critical juncture in our collective response to urban flooding, this book serves as a beacon of hope and guidance, illuminating pathways toward a more resilient and sustainable urban future. It is our fervent hope that the insights presented herein will inspire action, catalyze innovation, and empower communities to embrace nature-based solutions as integral components of their urban resilience strategies.Book Title: Nature Based Solutions to Prevent Urban FloodingAuthors Name: Shashikant Nishant Sharma & Dauda AyubaISBN: 978-93-92585-34-0Imprint: EduPubPublication Year: 2024

Each section of the garden is accompanied by adirectory of featured plants--from native ferns and succulents to a wide variety of flowering specimens. Throughout, the revered designer shows us how she incorporates nature in her interiors: in stunning floral arrangements, unique tablescapes, and elaborate holiday vignettes--where a rescued bird's nest commands as much attention as a prized collector's item. Whether in the intentional juxtaposition of high and low, or the considered placement of a garden bench to appreciate aparticular view, home and garden together reflect the epitome of Bunny Williams' inimitable style.

Inspiring photos and expert writing spotlight select private gardens, where horticultural pride is part of the region's land history. "Rob Cardillo is a master of light. His eye for the broad sweep, to the humblest detail, captures the very soul of the garden." --Anne Raver, former garden writer for The New York Times A GardenComm 2025 Gold Laurel Media Awards Winner, Photography, Book (General Readership)A GardenComm 2025 Silver Laurel Media Awards Winner, Publishing, Book (General Readership)A GardenComm 2025 Silver Laurel Media Awards Winner, Writing, Book (General Readership) The Philadelphia region is home to an almost mystifying number of excellent gardens, both public and private. With a history of ornamental gardening going back more than 300 years, Philadelphians take pride in the tradition of horticulture readily visible today in the sizable number of public gardens, esteemed horticulture schools, and the largest flower show in the country. In Philadelphia and its surrounding counties, the reader will visit 21 private gardens behind tall hedges, down quiet lanes, or tucked into bustling neighborhoods.

How to Fix Canada's Broken Democracy
Federal power in Canada has been concentrated in the office of an unaccountable Prime Minister. This problem developed in two steps. This first step occurred when political parties allowed the party membership to select their leader at a leadership convention. This put the party leader in charge of the caucus rather than the caucus in control of the leader. Originally, the caucus elected the party leader as required under the British Westminster model. To seal this process, Pierre Trudeau modified the Canada Elections Act to require that a political candidate must have their application signed by the party leader.The second step occurred when politicians circumvented the constitutional conventions that form part of the Canadian Constitution. These conventions were adopted from Great Britain and form the governing principles under which Parliament operates. The conventions are unwritten and cannot be enforced in the courts. The British have never allowed this to happen in their country. In addition, our politicians adamantly maintain the first-past-the-post electoral system that yields fake majorities in more than 50% of elections with only 38% of the popular vote.To fix our broken democracy, Canada should adopt electoral reform and concordance democracy. These changes would put governance back under the rules of the Westminster model. Government would become accountable and less confrontational. The country would be more united and everyone's vote would count. These changes can be added to our existing political system without any constitutional amendments. Ideally, an elected Senate (which would require a constitutional amendment) would also bring an additional element of democracy to the table. An implementation procedure is proposed that activists can use to bring these changes forward.
Chronicles of the Cure
Longing for Connection... Nightwalker Anastasia Romanov longed for human connection, since her entire family was shot to death execution style in front of her. She thought she'd found it with her Michael Matson until their relationship went sour. She traced every revolutionary survivor, and their descendants as they spread across Europe, and North America. She found peace on her terms, away from the nightwalker community. Her lover and friends were in her life because they cared about her, instead of her family name. Her job with the British museum used both her encyclopedic knowledge of lived history, and was sufficiently low profile to stop people from answering questions. She used the vampire health clinics for feeding appointments. Everything was under control until a black envelope summoned for a leadership election forcing her to confront her maker. The Corlov Descendants...As a military aide to Nicholas II, Dimitri Corlov and his family were among the last to leave Russia. Fearful of being chased by spies they moved every few years before settling in France and becoming the Corvelles. They changed their name the last time, to Carrington when his great grandson was born. Eric Carrington was fascinated by his family history, and their ties to the Romanovs. He was inspired by Dimitri to serve his country as a soldier, then a diplomat. His daughter Vanessa grew up behind compound walls with a mother she had little in common with. She turned to drawing paper, pencils, and the stories Eric passed on to her. Little did she know a chance meeting at her father's retirement party would change her life.

Horse Training
The process of horse training can be vexing for both the rider and the animal. This guide addresses hundreds of prevalent training challenges and effectively resolves the most critical issues, including managing a horse that refuses to listen and correcting aberrant behavior. By identifying the source of the problem and providing techniques to keep both the rider and the horse engaged and concentrated, Jessica Jahiel assists you in maximizing the benefits of your training sessions by emphasizing the significance of enjoyable surroundings, effective communication, and attainable objectives.A frequent issue arises when a horse rides away from the familiar barn or companions without any problems. Still, whenever the rider attempts to turn back towards home, the horse suddenly bolts. He accelerates with an intense determination, with no intention of halting for any reason. This condition poses a significant risk for novice or unskilled riders who struggle to maintain control and their horse does not respond to conventional stopping techniques. Consequently, they panic and forcefully pull on the reins, exacerbating the situation.The book "Horse Training Guide for Riders: A Guide to Handle and Manage a Horse" provides foundational knowledge for aspiring horse enthusiasts before their first lesson. Just as humans and horses possess unique personalities, it is critical to acquire the ability to discern the personality type of a horse so that one can effectively manage it.

Part love story of one woman's extraordinary relationship with her animal companion, part philosophical examination of the special relationship between humans and dogs, and part exploration of the expanding field of modern integrative veterinary medicine, Soulmate Dog takes readers gently through the messiness of grieving the loss of a beloved animal companion with the story of Michelle Slater and her dog, Brady. "You will love Brady and his soulmate, Michelle. Their journey together-one filled with joy and pain and, ultimately, transformative triumph-will inspire you to be a more grateful, mindful, courageous and loving human." -Sy Montgomery, author of How to Be A Good CreatureMichelle's dog Brady became seriously ill at the age of five (and, according to his veterinarians, should not have survived). Searching for answers, Michelle turned to the growing field of animal communication. Animal communicators argue that anyone can be coached to listen, understand, and respond to animals. Through training with Debbie McGillivray in the art of animal communication, Michelle became semi-fluent in the language of dogs. As a result of their extraordinary conversations, Michelle shares in Soulmate Dog how Brady transformed the way she sees animals-as well as how we as humans love and grieve, and live day-to-day with our animals.Humans are illiterate not just about grief, but about love and daily communication. Love (and then grief) for our pets resides in a place that human vocabulary doesn't exist for; the language of dogs, as taught to Michelle by Brady, makes the love we have for our pets even stronger.
Fallen Star
The history of Swissair began in 1931 through the consolidation of two airlines, Ad Astra Aero and Balair, and the national airline became known for its financial stability, punctuality, reliability, and excellent in-flight service, and its sobriquet as The Flying Bank was well deserved. But throughout its existence, Swissair was handicapped by its small size, which prevented it from providing effective competition to the larger airlines. Its attempt to become a major European carrier through a risky equity-based alliance programme with several airlines, known as the Hunter Strategy, quickly unraveled and ultimately led to its demise. Swissair suffered heavy losses, and neither a strategic re-orientation plan nor a rescue attempt by the two biggest Swiss banks failed to arrest its terminal decline. Its last ever flight landed at Zurich on 1 April 2002. This book traces the histories of the various predecessor airlines and follows Swissair through the 70 years of its existence, which is amply illustrated with photographs and aircraft fleet lists.

A Spirited Life
A Spirited Life is a must for any dog lover. This full color, loaded with personal photographs walks you through the life of an amazing dog. If you ever feel like life has given you a raw deal this is the book for you. This dog was given a hand of the worst cards possible, and he turned them into something quite grand with the help of his mom, Mary Oquendo. His antics will make you laugh, cry, and occasionally spit your drink. Spirit, my blind husky, was an integral part of my journey in the pet industry. He was a colleague, a travel buddy, and my friend. Everyone who met him loved him. He graces many a wedding photo album with people he met that day, as well as in, too many to count, cell phone photo libraries. This is Spirit's life told from his perspective.
Between Memory and Forgetting
In Between Memory and Forgetting, Harsh Mander recounts the history of one of the most gruesome communal massacres since India's independence in Gujarat in 2002. This occurred under the watch of Chief Minister Narendra Modi, who led the state until he went on to be elected as Prime Minister a dozen years later. Mander tells the story of the years that passed between the carnage and his elevation as Prime Minister, examining difficult questions of whether he carries guilt for the crimes, and whetheracknowledgment, remorse, reparation and justice were accomplished in the years which followed. The book emerges as a powerfully reasoned indictment of Modi's record in these years, for not just why the survivors of the carnage were denied both reconciliation and justice; but also for the rise of a series of spectacular extra-judicial killings, including of Ishrat Jahan and Sohrabuddin Sheikh. In the last section, Mander writes stories of courageous resistance to the injustice of these years, by persons within and outside government.
