Kenlahar, the scorned and outcast apprentice healer of the House of Lahar, was the reluctant heir to the ancient and powerful Star Axe. His possession of the Axe brought the black forces of Toraq, the evil sorcerer King, down upon himself and his homeland. Kenlahar fled for his life and took a few companions with him, including Balor, his warrior friend, and Sanra, his beautiful woman. They set off toward the Kingdom of Kernback to seek the answer to the secret of the Star Axe, but Toraq and his skeletal horde were close behind. Kenlahar's vows as a healer were never to shed the blood of another man, but when Toraq confronted Kenlahar and his companions, the fantastic power of the Star Axe was finally unleashed!

"This paper urges the police to take ownership and make use of science in the policing task. The authors commend the police industry for embracing innovative management strategies and crime control and prevention policies over the last two decades, but argue that as a whole, the profession has been hesitant to adopt scientific, evidence-based policies and practices resulting in a fundamental disconnect between science and policing. The authors discuss existing research that supports their contention and lay out a proposal for a new, science-based policing paradigm. They describe the adoption this paradigm as necessary if the police industry is to "retain public support and legitimacy, cope with recessionary budget cuts, and ... alleviate the problems that have become part of the policing task." Police Science: Toward a New Paradigm is one of a series of papers that are being published as a result of the second "Executive Session on Policing and Public Safety," a collaboration of NIJ and Harvard Kennedy School's Program in Criminal Justice Policy and Management."--Publisher's website.

Proactive policing, as a strategic approach used by police agencies to prevent crime, is a relatively new phenomenon in the United States. It developed from a crisis in confidence in policing that began to emerge in the 1960s because of social unrest, rising crime rates, and growing skepticism regarding the effectiveness of standard approaches to policing. In response, beginning in the 1980s and 1990s, innovative police practices and policies that took a more proactive approach began to develop. This report uses the term "proactive policing" to refer to all policing strategies that have as one of their goals the prevention or reduction of crime and disorder and that are not reactive in terms of focusing primarily on uncovering ongoing crime or on investigating or responding to crimes once they have occurred. Proactive policing is distinguished from the everyday decisions of police officers to be proactive in specific situations and instead refers to a strategic decision by police agencies to use proactive police responses in a programmatic way to reduce crime. Today, proactive policing strategies are used widely in the United States. They are not isolated programs used by a select group of agencies but rather a set of ideas that have spread across the landscape of policing. Proactive Policing reviews the evidence and discusses the data and methodological gaps on: (1) the effects of different forms of proactive policing on crime; (2) whether they are applied in a discriminatory manner; (3) whether they are being used in a legal fashion; and (4) community reaction. This report offers a comprehensive evaluation of proactive policing that includes not only its crime prevention impacts but also its broader implications for justice and U.S. communities.

It’s a last-minute deer hunt at Bigfoot Ranch in Eastern Oregon. Wilderness guide Hart Davis reluctantly agrees to a booking: seven rough-looking men who don't look like they need any pointers on killing things.

He has only one advantage: he knows this wilderness like the back of his hand. Somehow, he has to survive long enough to get the message out—a message that could topple a government.

Ancient Goddesses, modern Nightmares. When Doug goes hiking with Suzanne in the Cascades, he thinks he's lucked out. She's his dream girl. But that night in the tent, she turns into something else, something out of his nightmares. The Succubus, Eisheth, has many names and shapes, but she's perfected the Manic Pixie Dream Girl, every young man's sexual fantasy. She has left a long trail of bodies behind her. Serena is one of the few mortals who sees through her beguiling persona, tracking the demoness, determined to stop her. She is joined by Doug's friends and finds that, in Cary, she is still capable of love. Rick helps guide them, the last of the Guardians, an ancient order who once guarded the Succubus but fell prey to their enchantment . The Succubus calls on her sisters, the Daughters of Lilith, for help. Once they were Goddesses but into their peaceful valley came men who saw only their beauty and the power of their blood. Imprisoned for millennia, drained of their life giving blood, the Succubus have vowed vengeance upon men, preying on their sexual desires. When these forces converge, love and sex converge in an explosion of violence, as the Succubus and humans confront their true natures. "Blood of the Succubus" combines mythology with modern pop culture--modern dating and ancient fertility rites, a murder mystery and the supernatural. URBAN DICTIONARY: Manic Pixie Dream Girl or MPDG: A pretty, outgoing, whacky female...whose sole purpose is to help broody male characters lighten up and enjoy their lives.

As the darkness slithers closer, and the deaths start to mount, the residents of Everett and St Aloysius Island are locked in a battle against an enemy as implacable as they are numerous. As the earth shakes once again, another battle looms on the horizon – fast flowing and deadly. Who will survive when the ocean bares its fangs?
