In a few moments, in'rode Mr. Hamilton, with a speed betokening great excitement. He came to the door, and inquired if Master William was in. He was told he was in the barn. Mr. Hamilton, without dismounting, rode up to the barn with extraordinary speed. In a few moments he and Mr. Freeland returned to the house. By this time the three constables rode up, and in great haste dismounted, tied their horses, and met Mr. William and Mr. Hamilton returning from the barn; and after talking awhile, they all walked up to the kitchen door. There was no one in the kitchen but myself and John. Henry and Sandy were up at the barn. Mr. Freeland put his head in at the door, and called me by my mame, saying there were some gentlemen at the door who wished to see me. I stepped to the door, and inquired what they wanted. They at once seized me, and without giving me any satisfaction, tied me--lashing my hands closely together. I insisted upon knowing what the matter was. They at length said, that they had learned I had been in a "scrape," and that I was to be examined before my master; and if their information proved false, I should not be hurt. William Freeland, came to the door with her hands full of biscuits, and divided them between Henry and John. She then delivered herself of a speech, to the following effect: --addressing herself to me, she said, "You devil 1 You yeUmv devil it was you that put it into the heads of Henry and John to run away.

Get That Freak: Homophobia and Transphobia in High Schools

Get That Freak: Homophobia and Transphobia in High Schools

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Haskell, Rebecca / Burtch, Brian, PUBLISHER: Fernwood Publishing, Bullying in schools has garnered significant attention recently, but little has been said about the bullying of homophobic and transphobic students in Canadian high schools. This book fills that gap by exploring the experiences of youth who identify or are identified as "queer." Based on interviews with recent high school graduates in British Columbia, these researchers provide stories of physical, verbal, and emotional harassment in this group and offer insights into the negative outcomes that result from the experience of being bullied. On the other hand, however, these young people were not helpless victims: many learned to rely on resistance, inner strength, and true friends. In the last chapter, the authors make recommendations for handling homophobic and transphobic bullying in high schools and supporting students who experience this form of harassment.

When Nowhere is Safe Most people avoid the dreaded Whitecapel district. For Honoria Todd, it's the last safe haven. But at what price? Blade is known as the master of the rookeries--no one dares cross him. It's been said he faced down the Echelon's army single-handedly, that ever since being infected by the blood-craving he's been quicker, stronger, and almost immortal. When Honoria shows up at his door, his tenuous control comes close to snapping. She's so...innocent. He doesn't see her backbone of steel--or that she could be the very salvation he's been seeking.

Bird Songs of the Mesozoic: A Day Hiker's Guide to the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hopes, David Brendan, PUBLISHER: Milkweed Editions, As Balzac famously said of cities, "to walk is to vegetate, to stroll is to live." For David Brendan Hopes, day hikes provide the perfect occasion for both refuge and contemplation. Encounters with wild animals, rare plants, or simply the perfect moment of weather and view are opportunities to reflect on the sublime synchronicity of human and natural life. The ferns of early spring transport him through time, to wonder whether dinosaurs had song. The emergence of cicadas calls to mind men and women "gorgeous in impractical ways." A glorious display - one of "exuberant defiance" - of late fall roses suggests that plants might have moods. Touching on themes as diverse as hunting, deep ecology, wicca, and sci-fi literature, Hopes' hikes and thoughts are part of a sifting of experience that unites the everyday world with a larger personal and eternal story.

HOW IT ALL BEGAN is the personal testimony of Michael "Bommi" Baumann, a man who, in the late s and early '70s, was a member of the June 2nd Movement, one of the most spectacular urban guerrilla organizations in West Berlin. Of this book, Baumann said, "Others should understand why people take the road of armed struggle, how they come to it, how the seeds are planted, and what the emotions behind it are, what kind of considerations and psychic preconditions are needed to overcome the fear involved." But Baumann, ultimately, had to make a choice. He renounced violence when he left the June 2nd Movement in . Security police seized the original German edition, Wie Alles Anfing, when it appeared in . The resulting trial and publicity raised an international outcry and the book ended up being republished in German and translated into six languages.

S. Eliot, to the questionable state of Queen Elizabethas fingernails. Discombobulating but rarely disastrous encounters abound a with precocious six-year-olds, mischievous mice, platefuls of inedible seashells, and a quiet American in Edinburgh looking for a girl heas never met. A good bedtime, or anytime, read written by an adept wordsmith.

The Cerebral Code: Thinking a Thought in the Mosaics of the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Calvin, William H. / Calvin, PUBLISHER: Bradford Book, "The Cerebral Code" is a new understanding of how Darwinian processes could operate in the brain to shape mental images in only seconds, starting with shuffled memories no better than the jumble of our nighttime dreams, but evolving into something of quality, such as a sentence to speak aloud. Jung said that dreaming goes on continuously but you can't see it when you are awake, just as you can't see the stars in the daylight because it is too bright. Calvin's is a theory for what goes on, hidden from view by the glare of waking mental operations, that produces our peculiarly human type of consciousness with its versatile intelligence. Surprisingly, the subtitle's mosaics of the mind is not a literary metaphor. For the first time, it is a description of a mechanism of what appears to be an appropriate level of explanation for many mental phenomena, that of hexagonal mosaics of electrical activity that compete for territory in the association cortex of the brain.
