Описание: Moriarty's Flight of Fancy is a story of migration to a new life in Australia. The challenging adventure is full of enterprise, risk, struggle, and plain hard work, laced with a spirit of 'get on with it'. Central to the story is the growth of a personal and family heritage and the demands it placed on the Moriarty family. When Moriarty and his wife, B., escaped from their mundane existence in the Emerald Isle, they struggled until they met the MacDonalds and built a lifelong partnership with them. The sheep property-the Homestead-went through a kaleidoscope of good times, severe drought, fire, and threats from development. Moriarty's children were different in character and aspiration. Patrick married a part-aboriginal person. Together they made a big impact on the Flying Doctor Service. Siobhan was a changeable personality who had mixed fortune, eventually finding happiness only for it to be cut short by tragedy. The wild one, Kaitlyn, slid down a skid row after a meteoric success. With help from a special friend, she was able to reinvent herself. All the while, Moriarty grew young through a curious dialogue with experience.

Описание: An Ember in the Ashes meets Indiana Jones in an electrifying, steal-your-breath away, supercharge-your-senses YA fantasy adventure. Across the Aramtesh Empire, scent is everything. Prayers only reach heaven on sacred incense, and perfumes are prized status symbols. 17-year-old Rakel has an uncanny ability with fragrances, but her skills aren't enough to buy her dying father more time. Ash bears the tattoos of an imperial bodyguard. When his prince, Nisai, insists on a diplomatic mission to an outer province, Ash is duty-bound to join the caravan. It's a nightmare protecting Nisai on the road. But it's even harder for Ash to conceal a secret that could see him exiled or executed. Rakel and Ash have nothing in common until smoke draws them to a field of the Empire's rarest flower. Nisai's been poisoned, flames devour the priceless blooms, and the pair have "suspect" clinging to them like a bad stench. Their futures depend on them working together to decipher clues, defy dangers and defeat their own demons in a race to source an antidote . . . before the imperial army hunts them down.
In the "Key Lime Wars," Soren Kierkegaard, the son and grandson of the famous philosopher of the same name, is pitted against the American National Security State in the battle to install Milky Way Federation supplied Cold Fusion reactors on a global basis the help the Earth to avert the impending global warming crisis. The United States bitterly opposes Cold Fusion: if adopted, global oil profits would disappear and the dominance of the U.S. in the world economy with it.
Soren is an outlier. A human from the Milky Way Federation whose family has long lived here. With the aid of MWF technology, he runs a key lime export business. The earthly key lime is favored throughout the MWF as uniquely suited to the exotic beverages favored throughout the MWF. In recent years, because of unique aspects of Earth culture, mainly the sport of baseball and affection for modern be-bop jazz, MWF tourists have been drawn in large numbers to earth, to jazz festivals and major league baseball. MWF tourists are (almost) indistinguishable from the local Earth population. The tourists come to Earth on the "Bump," a faster than light portal. But recently the Bump has presented health problems and the MWF has suspended its use. For that reason, the outliers are fleeing the planet and only Soren is left to implement the humanitarian Cold Fusion assistance project.
Reluctantly, Soren takes on the job, mainly out of loyalty to his philosopher father. His effort is immediately complicated by the participation of his militant (communist) girl friend, Miko Matsunaga. With Miko as his rambunctious ally, it seems doubtful Soren will ever be able to succeed with the global installation of Cold Fusion., In fact, almost immediately, Miko is captured by American forces.
The battle is drawn. Miko must be saved; Cold Fusion has to go forward. But at what dire cost to Soren and Miko?

Описание:
This text explores how architectural and urban design values have been co-opted by global cities to enhance their economic competitiveness by creating a superior built environment that is not just aesthetically memorable but more productive and sustainable. It focuses on the experience of central Sydney through its policy commitment to 'design excellence' and more particularly to mandatory competitive design processes for major private development. Framed within broader contexts that link it to comparable urban policy and design issues in the Asia-Pacific region and globally, it provides a scholarly but accessible volume that provides a balanced and critical overview of a policy that has changed the design culture, development expectations, public realm and skyline of central Sydney, raising issues surrounding the uneven distribution of benefits and costs, professional practice, representative democracy, and implications of globalization.
