ASSASSIN JULIA HAMPTON IS READY TO QUIT THE GAME AND RETURN TO HER SCHOOLTEACHER ROOTS -- ONLY TO LEARN SHE'S MARKED FOR DEATH.
Primary teacher Julia Hampton's quiet life in Oregon upends with the murder of her parents and sister. Julia seeks revenge against those responsible, and against all odds, she succeeds. Her success is noticed by an organization dedicated to the same task on a grand scale: eliminate anyone importing and selling narcotics. Julia accepts assignments as a contract killer for The Company and makes a name for herself as J.
Settling in rural Idaho to live alone as a substitute teacher offers a low-profile base for assignments. Dawson Pelletier owns a nearby farm and looks after Julia's place when J is away. All goes well until she's wounded and barely makes it home. She finds her neighbor is much more than a gentleman farmer when only one of his many hidden resources is to become her expert caregiver.
Her thirst for vengeance sated and faced with her mortality, Julia notifies The Company that the assignment she barely survives is her last, and she'll return to teaching fulltime, but her resignation is rejected unless she fulfills a final contract. Against previous rules of engagement, her target is outside US borders, and she must leave her familiar firearm behind and find alternate means to terminate a giant ex-athlete responsible for importing tons of drugs stateside each week. J must take on a brute three times her size if she is to have a chance to return to the quiet life and budding romance wants.

"... I cannot put Jeffrey's books down until I've read to the last page "--Terin Heye--Bookkeeper, Olympia, WA
My initial dispatching of the Sanchez woman and three of her henchmen were as routine as my daily practice knocking bowling pins off fence posts, but no drill can prepare a person for an actual gun battle. For the first time in my life, I felt the shock of a bullet. My hand explored my stomach and slipped through wetness before pain set in. Dropping to one knee, I exchanged my nearly empty magazine. Two men remained who planned to end my life. I needed every round now in my gun.
Hearing the telltale sounds of magazines ejected and the fumbling to reload in the dining room, I stepped through the doorway with my eye locked over the sights. Both men looked in my direction, clumsily releasing their slides to chamber rounds.
Dilligent practce with the nearly silent and recoilless Mark IV .22/45 behind my house paid off. The men wanting to kill me now became no more than wobbling bowling pins, and I simply squeezed the trigger once, then again. Both men fell faster than I can tell it.

A Globe and Mail Top 100 Selection Longlisted, 2021 National Business Book Award A CBC New Brunswick Book List Selection
As tech investors the world over search for elusive unicorns (start-ups valued at over $1 billion), acclaimed business journalist Gordon Pitts asks whether there can be a place for high-tech innovation and unicorn-like value creation outside of major urban centres, whether in Atlantic Canada, rust-belt New York, or Northern Ontario.
Journeying back to the origins of Radian6 and Q1 Labs -- two New Brunswick companies that sold for a combined $1 billion -- in the basements and offices of a group of geeks and dreamers, Pitts tells a story of two remarkable companies and the legacies that continue to this day. But theirs was not a simple tale of overnight success; there were sellouts and firings, comebacks and vindication, and still unfulfilled promise.
This is a story of high-tech value creation far from Silicon Valley, a story of the mythical unicorn in the woods. Are the stories of Radian6 and Q1 Labs outliers, rogue datapoints that should be discarded, or the foundation for a new knowledge economy outside of the mainstream?

Описание: Sackcloth and ashes were used in Old Testament Times as a symbol of mourning or repentance. When someone wanted to show a repentant heart He would often wear sackcloth and sit in ashes and put ashes on the top of his head. My poems are about a number of things that go along with this.

The volume is organized into four major parts, which are concerned with the formation of Johannine Christology, Johannine Christology in Hellenistic and Jewish contexts, Christology and the literary character of the Johannine writings, and the application of Christology for the Johannine audience and beyond.
The fifteen contributors to this volume comprise an international set of Johannine scholars who explore various ways of both describing and then pursuing the implications of Johannine Christology. Their contributions focus primarily upon the Gospel, but involve other key texts as well.

Описание: Extinction threatens Tropween's Giracians, masters of their alien galaxies millions of light-years from the ravaged thirty-first-century Earth. The scientifically advanced alien species has uncontested physical supremacy and dominates controls their massive patrilineal empire. These warrior conquerors' complete annihilations of every challenger to the giant time travelers' society were optimal for more than three hundred thousand Earth years. Until the Euseral virus attacked the ancient species' longevity lifecycle with its devastatingly slow, ten-thousand-year maturation, culminating with the eventual decimation of Girac female wombs. Their life. Tropween's alien ruler, Emperor Wflou, began his one-hundred-year quest, rejecting millions of candidates in his perseverance for his species' survival. Wflou sought nonshared DNA, discovering only the small furless human female of the primitive species met his stringent alien criteria. For Giracians, science now governs the consciously superior warrior culture, where only facts matter. Analytical, scientific, and logical principles guide the feline aliens dominant lifecycles. Only women's extradentary DNA and her fragile, unique anatomy can save both species. Igniting for Giracs the unknown, an impossibility. The factual collision of alien eroticism with humans' nonexistent emotions explodes Giracians' concept of true power, altering what Giracs have decreed impossible for the small-brain species.

Описание: One of many lessons gleaned from COVID-19 is that our healthcare ecosystem can accomplish extraordinary feats, and quickly, when the individual components work together. Imagine the innovation potential that awaits patients if such large-scale collaboration occurred with more regularity? For over a decade, Peter Pitts has offered incisive commentary on this very question. The articles featured in this book aim to confront conflicting perspectives on subjects ranging from healthcare economics and patient education, to development roadblocks and friction between payers, providers, manufacturers, and regulators. The Value Equation: A Journey Through the Innovation Ecosystem in the Time of Covid is necessary reading for anyone interested in charting a new, urgent path forward for patient-centric healthcare innovation.
From 1973 through 1982, Pitt had one of the nation's most successful football programs, including a national championship in 1976. From 1976 through 1982, no team in college football won more games than the University of Pittsburgh Panthers. Pitt captured the 1976 national championship with a perfect 12-0 record, highlighted by the brilliance of Heisman Trophy winner Tony Dorsett. The memorable season capped one of the most stunning turnarounds in college football history.
From 1964 through 1972, Pitt never had a winning season, and university officials had begun to consider the possible dissolution of the football program. But the hiring of coach Johnny Majors, fresh from an impressive revitalization of the program at Iowa State University, breathed life into Pitt's football fortunes. Majors brought with him a young, aggressive staff of assistant coaches, men whose contacts and experiences touched and reached recruiting regions Pitt had never harvested. Beginning in 1973, Pitt registered eleven consecutive winning seasons.
Following the championship season, Majors returned to his native Tennessee, where he had been an All-America halfback during the 1950s. Jackie Sherrill, Majors' replacement at Pitt, continued the winning ways, registering five straight winning campaigns, including three straight 11-1 seasons from 1979 through 1981. Pitt's football program produced numerous All-Americans, first-round NFL draft choices and brought a level of sustained recognition to the university's football--recognition that it hasn't reached since.
