Sinopsis

The author and illustrator Ernest Thompson Seton was a prominent naturalist and founder of the Boy Scouts of America. An Englishman of Scottish ancestry, Seton was raised in North America, his family having emigrated to Canada in 1866. He gained experience as a naturalist by trailing and hunting in the prairie country of Manitoba. He used this knowledge as the basis for his pioneering series of animal fiction books. His most enduring work is ‘Wild Animals I Have Known’ (1898), featuring the beloved tale of the wolf Lobo. Deeply concerned for the future of the prairie, Seton fought to establish reservations for Indians and parks for animals threatened by extinction, as well as providing children with the opportunities for nature study. For the first time in publishing history, this eBook presents Seton’s complete fictional works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.

    When it’s your first time, may as well go all in. 
      
    For Becky and Laura, it only took one night of sharing a college dorm. The habit of sleeping in the buff proves too tempting, and Becky is treated to her very first climax via the talented lips of her new roommate. 
      
    But a little feminine playing around doesn’t mean that women are the only thing they want. 
      
    A new opportunity comes in the form of an invitation to a notoriously kinky frat party. 
      
    What began as a simple retelling of Becky and Laura’s first time together turns into a full-on reenactment — with spectator involvement. 
      
    Will Becky allow her innocence to be taken as everyone watches?

    The “age of information” is a paradox that has drowned most people in misinformation, which has become so prevalent that some believe the world is currently going through a “post-truth” era. 
    In The True Story of Fake News (2017), conservative pundit Mark Dice immerses readers in the twisted world of mainstream media. By analyzing the influence of major companies - Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and Google - he aims to expose media manipulation and censorship, and show the real faces of CNN, NBC News, CBS News, and other news networks. The True Story of Fake News is a wake-up call for Americans: Dice warns that we must learn to see past both nonsense and propaganda, stay aware, and make our own educated decisions.

    Are you curious about the nature of time-space and the dynamics of human lives within it? Dive into this book and explore these fascinating concepts.
     
    Time, the fundamental dynamo, leads the union with space, its perennial partner. Together, they frame a vast and restless cosmos where all individual has their unique time and place. Yet, humans do not survive alone; they share this beautiful but tiny planetary homestead with many 
    other species.
     
    While humans walk upon Planet Earth, they simultaneously scan the stars, probing the unfolding saga of their home planet and the entire cosmos:‘Twinkle, twinkle, little star How I wonder what you are…’
     
    This book combines insights from history, physics, geography, and literature – not forgetting songs. The opening section reveals how humans live, remember, forget, and think through time. The next section highlights key features of time and explains why denying time is nonsensical.
     
    The final section surveys the collective human journey through time-space. Humans are a complex species, capable of both deceit and trust, hatred and love, conflict and cooperation. Yet, slowly, they are creating international networks and a global civics. This exciting trend is 
    crucial, especially in responding effectively to today’s urgent climate crisis on Planet Earth.

    They are the lone wolves of the battlefield. Tracking the enemy, lying in wait for the target to appear—then they shoot to kill. Armed with an unerring eye, infinite patience and a mastery of camouflage, combat snipers stalk the enemy with only one goal . . . In World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and Beirut, American snipers honed the art of delivering a single deadly shot from nowhere—and devastating enemy morale. They met the enemy on his own turf, picking off officers, unwary soldiers, and even other snipers from extraordinary distances of up to 1 ½ miles. Now, these uncommon men tell their stories: of the emotions felt when a man's face came into their crosshairs and they pulled the trigger, of the nerve-wracking hours and days of waiting, motionless, for the enemy, of the primal savagery of a sniper duel.Often trained haphazardly in wartime, and forgotten in times of peace, combat snipers were officially recognized after the Vietnam War, when the Marine Corps became the first military branch to start a full-time sniper school. One Shot-One Kill is their powerful record of desperate trials and proud victories.
