DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe new millennium has recently dawned bringing with it a series of catastrophic events that were set in motion by a single episode. The events seem to coincide with the prediction of the Sleeping Prophet Edgar Cayce. Only a male volcanologist named Paul and a sexy French lady named Loren can prevent the deaths of millions of people on the west coast of North America as the devastation begins. World leaders are depending on the expertise of these two scientists to guide them through, while some military experts remain sceptical. He is the best volcanologist in the world, banished to Canada from the United States Geological Survey by his wife's lover. She is a brilliant, sexy seismologist that every man wants, but only Paul can possess. Paul hired her and promoted her, but never really understood her magnetic attraction. As they fall in love, the world realizes that they cannot survive without them. Follow the lives of Paul and Loren through North America's worst disaster since the ice age, while discovering how they save the world and each other. Paul's ex-wife attempts to save herself through murder, only to lose her dignity to another. A sceptical American President becomes their closest friend, while his popularity soars from their predictions. From Portland to the South Pacific, Paul and Loren continue to save Americans, while meddling young women flirt with danger. The duo is in the right location at the right time to save the people, but prevent the cataclysmic events. In the end they are rewarded for their efforts by a grateful American President, but that's when the reader learns that this is only the beginning of the story.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA valuable discovery under the world’s second-largest temperate wetland and in the traditional lands of the Cree and Ojibway casts light on the growing conflict among resource development, environmental stewardship, and Indigenous rights When prospectors discovered a gigantic crescent of metal deposits under the James Bay Lowlands of northern Canada in 2007, the find touched off a mining rush, lured a major American company to spend fortunes in the remote swamp, and forced politicians to confront their legal duty to consult Indigenous Peoples about development on their traditional territories. But the multibillion dollar Ring of Fire was all but abandoned when stakeholders failed to reach consensus on how to develop the cache despite years of negotiations and hundreds of millions of dollars in spending. Now plans for an all-weather road to connect the region to the highway network are reigniting the fireworks. In this colorful tale, Virginia Heffernan draws on her bush and newsroom experiences to illustrate the complexities of resource development at a time when Indigenous rights are becoming enshrined globally. Ultimately, Heffernan strikes a hopeful note: the Ring of Fire presents an opportunity for Canada to leave behind centuries of plunder and set the global standard for responsible development of minerals critical to the green energy revolution.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis volume weaves together the Scottish otter stories from Gavin Maxwell's three non-fiction books, Ring of Bright Water (1960), The Rocks Remain (1963), and Raven Meet Thy Brother (1969). Maxwell was both an extraordinarily evocative writer and a highly unusual man. While touring the Iraqi marshes, he was captivated by an otter and became a devoted advocate of and spokesman for the species. He moved to a remote house in the Scottish highlands, co-habiting there with three otters and living an idyllic and isolated life – at least for a while. Fate, fame, and fire conspired against this paradise, and it, too, came to an end, though the journey was filled with incident and wonder. Maxwell was also talented as an artist, and his sinuous line drawings of these amphibious and engaging creatures, and the homes they occupied, illustrate his story. This book stands as a lasting tribute to a man, his work, and his passion. It was received and has endured as a classic for its portrait not only of otters but also of a man who endured heartaches and disappointments, whose life embodied both greatness and tragedy. He writes with rare eloquence about his birth, his devotion to the beloved Scottish highlands, and the wildlife he loved, while refusing to ignore the darker aspects of his nature and of nature in its larger sense.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe author examines natural disasters around the Pacific Rim throughout history together with scientific data context to produce enlightening—and highly readable—entries. On March 11, 2011, a magnitude 9.0 earthquake struck off Japan's coast, triggering a powerful tsunami. The massive destruction that resulted proved that not even sophisticated, industrialized nations are immune from nature's fury. Written to take some of the mystery out of the earth's behavior, this encyclopedia chronicles major natural disasters that have occurred around the Pacific Rim, an area nicknamed the "Ring of Fire" because of the volatile earth that lies above and below. The encyclopedia offers descriptions of deadly earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis through time. The entries provide in-depth information that promotes an understanding of the structure of the earth and earth processes and shares the insights of scientists whose work helps clarify the causes and effects of these cataclysmic events. At the same time, the work examines how the people and cultures of the Pacific Rim view this active part of the earth, how they live with the threat of disaster, and how they have been affected by major events that have occurred. Readers will come away with a holistic view of what is known, how this knowledge was gained, and what its implications may be.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSOME LIKE IT HOT. OTHERS LIKE IT TO HURT. Max Little is a traveling gourmand in worn boots and a Bob Marley T-shirt. It's 1999, and Max is a certified heat freak, a chile-head whose love of spice has taken him across the globe. His hot sauce emporium in Laguna Beach, Little's House of Fire, stocks sauces and spicy goods from around the world, and he and the other chile-heads with whom he does business comprise an underground network called the 'Ring of Fire.' After Max is approached by Nickolai Gasanov, a mysterious officer from the Kyrgyzstan Ministry of Agriculture, his world is turned upside down when word of a new variety of chile pepper is revealed - a relic of the ancient Silk Road hidden in the valleys of the Tien Shan mountains of Central Asia. A chile with reputedly euphoric properties, it ignites the lively and offbeat characters in the Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire follows Max across continents in search of the mythical Fire of the Valley chile. From Santa Fe to Louisiana, Chicago, and across India, China, and Kyrgyzstan, his journey becomes a piquant global odyssey. Along the way, he encounters a tapestry of colorful characters linked to his quest: Jesus Jones, a legendary Louisiana pepper farmer; Lilah DeVillier, a beguiling creole doctoral student who's an expert in chiles; voodoo Priestess Delphine Anjou; Jahnu Angami of the headhunting Angami tribe in Northeast India; and massive Nazaat Buntun, fierce guardian of the Kyrgyz pepper myth. All the while, he's being pursued by two menacing former Russian commandos in the employ of Kyrgyzstan's notorious gangster Ruslan Bakiyev, who craves the pepper profits for himself. The Ring of Fire entertainingly explores the history of chile peppers, their spread across the world, and their impact upon the cultures of which they have indelibly become a part. Enlisted early on in his journey by New Mexico State University, Max is also on a quest to be the first to verify the existence of the scorching Naga Jolokia, or Ghost Pepper, an authentic chile discovered in remote Northeastern India in the late nineties. A chile so potent its Scoville heat rating is reportedly triple that of any other known variety. The race is on as Max encounters unforgettable people, incredible meals, exotic locations, and extraordinary experiences pursuing his passion. If you relish the irreverent foodie fiction of Peter Mayle and Anthony Bourdain, then this story is for you. The Ring of Fire is a gustatory delight for food lovers, history buffs, armchair travelers, and romantics.
