A Lesson in Vengeance meets The Taking of Jake Livingston in this page-turning YA horror/fantasy set in dark academia about a queer Black teen who discovers the sinister history of his boarding school and the corrupt powers behind it all.Regent Academy has a long and storied history in Winslow, Vermont, as does the forest that surrounds it. The school is known for molding teens into leaders, but its history is far more nefarious.Seventeen-year-old Douglas Jones wants nothing to do with Regent''s king-making; he’s just trying to survive. But then a student is murdered and, for some reason, by the next day no one remembers him having ever existed, except for Douglas and the groundskeeper''s son, Everett Everley. In his determination to uncover the truth, Douglas awakens a horror hidden within the forest, unearthing secrets that have been buried for centuries. A vengeful creature wants blood as payment for a debt more than 300 years in the making—or it will swallow all of Winslow in darkness.And for the first time in his life, Douglas might have a chance to grasp the one thing he’s always felt was missing: power. But if he’s not careful, he will find out that power has a tendency to corrupt absolutely everything.A high-octane mystery of murder and magic for fans of Ace of Spades, House of Hollow, and Get Out!

Mors vincit omnia. Death conquers all. London, 1883.The Veil between the living and dead has thinned. Violet-eyed mediums commune with spirits under the watchful eye of the Royal Speaker Society, and sixteen-year-old Silas Bell would rather rip out his violet eyes than become an obedient Speaker wife. According to Mother, he'll be married by the end of the year.It doesn't matter that he's needed a decade of tutors to hide his autism; that he practices surgery on slaughtered pigs; that he is a boy, not the girl the world insists on seeing. After a failed attempt to escape an arranged marriage, Silas is diagnosed with Veil sickness-a mysterious disease sending violet-eyed women into madness-and shipped away to Braxton's Sanitorium and Finishing School. The facility is cold, the instructors merciless, and the students either bloom into eligible wives or disappear.So when the ghosts of missing students start begging Silas for help, he decides to reach into Braxton's innards and expose its rotten guts to the world-as long as the school doesn't break him first.

One day in late spring, Andrea Marcolongo walks into an outdoor store in Paris to buy a camp bed, a sleeping bag, and a flashlight. Her destination, not a forest or mountain peak, but the deserted halls of one of the most famous museums in the world, the Acropolis of Athens. But it’s hard to be truly alone when you’re surrounded by the scarred beauty of the Parthenon, lit only by the moon and summoning shadows from the past. Amog them, Lord Elgin, the English diplomat who in the early 19th century orchestrated the controversial transportation of the Parthenon marbles from Ottoman Greece to London, where they remain today.As the night goes by, the empty space left by the missing statues starts evoking other, more personal absences. Marcolongo reflects on the ever-changing relationship between present and past, and on the choices that make us who we are. A powerful book that crosses time and space to remind us we cannot live in isolation but are continuously connected and indebted to others, from one of Europe’s most original classicists.

Pro vzhled, charakter a život Prahy je od jejího vzniku zcela zásadním faktorem Vltava, řeka, jejíž tok připravil reliéf krajiny k osídlení pražského kotliny a poté k utváření města, které vyrostlo v metropoli. V průběhu své historie si město řeku pozvolna podmaňovalo. Pražané se naučili využívat její energie v mlýnech a později elektrárnách, řečiště překlenovat různými typy mostů, upravit břehy a ostrovy, vybudovat nábřeží. Do proměn tváře řeky nejradikálněji vstoupilo zřejmě 19. století. Vltavské břehy, dosud většinou využívané jako hospodářské periferie, se proměňovaly v žádané lokality s výstavnými budovami, společenskými centry a elegantními promenádami. Ve vstupní části ukazuje autorka historické sepětí Prahy a Vltavy řeky, kdy vystupovaly do popředí zejména praktické funkce řeky, dnes už většinou vnímané jako estetický prvek, dotvářející malebný obraz města. V druhé části se pak stává průvodkyní komentující současné fotografie zajímavých objektů a míst spojujících Vltavu s Prahou, ať to jsou historické mlýny, jezy, náplavky, ostrovy, vodárenské věže, mosty, nábřeží s jejich budovami i řeka jako místo společenského života města. Kromě fotografií exteriérů provázejí text dokumentační snímky, rejstřík lokací s mapou objektů, přehled ostrovů, mostů, nábřeží a také osobností.

Prepare to laugh, swoon and cry . .. perfect for fans of Christina Lauren and Emma Chase. ___ Some people marry the enemy in Vegas .. . Keeley managed to get knocked up by him too.Keeley: Last January, I drunk-married my nemesis-hot, oversized geek Graham Tate. With no memory of how it came about, there was only one solution: run off before he woke up and pretend it didn't happen. It would have worked perfectly if I hadn't wound up pregnant.Graham is the opposite of everything I want in a man-practical, disciplined, frugal-but living with him until the baby arrives has me wondering if, perhaps, I've been wanting the wrong things all along. And if that drunk version of me last January might have been onto something. Graham: I never planned to have kids, and I certainly wouldn't have planned on one with Keeley Connolly-a woman who does not believe in savings accounts or personal safety and thinks Lucky Charms is a health food because of the non-marshmallow bits.A woman who also didn't think twice about marrying me in Vegas and ditching me hours later. I can't wait to put this behind me and return to my careful, chaos-free life in New York. But the more time I spend with Keeley, the more I'm remembering the things that led me to marry her in the first place...and wondering if I can live without them when this ends.

The existence of the dams retaining water either permanently or occasionally, is always connected with the risk of their failure. The failure of a dam gives rise to a flood wave that advances in the area behind the dam or through the valley below the dam. The effects of a dam break wave originated in this way may be disastrous and may cause numerous fatalities as well as financial losses exceeding many times the price of the hydraulic structure itself. In context with catastrophic floods, namely those in July 1997 and August 2002, and also with local flood events which occur almost every year, the dam safety problem became topical also in the Czech Republic, where more than 100 small dams and levees failed and about 10 large dams were seriously endangered due to overtopping. Contents The monograph aims to cover both theoretical and practical issues dealing with embankment dam breaching due to overtopping. It starts with the definition of the problem and related terminology. The third chapter provides the comprehensive database of dam failures all over the world and the statistical analysis of data dealing with dam construction and dam failures. In the fourth chapter, the dam breach mechanism during dam crest overtopping is described and analysed for various types of earth dam body. The description is demonstrated using experimental dam breach modelling results obtained by the authors of this monograph and other documents from abroad. The theoretical background of the dam erosion initiation and propagation is mentioned as well together with the comparison of calculated and observed sediment transport rate. The fifth chapter describes several approaches to the deterministic modelling of the dam breaching due to overtopping. The classification of various methods is performed and more detailed discussion is focused on one dimensional modelling. For the first estimate of dam breach parameters (maximum breach discharge, time of failure, shape and size of the breach) the empirical formulas derived from real dam failures are mentioned and discussed. Further on, the mathematical model of the dam failure is derived. For the solution, analytical and numerical procedures are used. Short description of computer codes is attached as well. Finally, sensitivity analysis of dam breach parameters is carried out using numerical finite difference method and the computer code NATRZ. Latin Hypercube Sampling method was used for the estimate of the probable worst possible, but realistic flood hydrograph. The principle of the solution is mentioned in the sixth chapter. One of the methods for mathematical models calibration is experimental earth dam breach research. Such a research was carried out in the laboratory of the Water Structures Institute in Brno. The overview of the methods and case studies is mentioned at the beginning of the chapter seven together with the description of experiments performed during years 1997 – 2000 in the Institute of Water Structures, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Brno University of Technology. The chapter eight provides reader the practical applications of previously described methods of dam breach mathematical modelling. Firstly, results of calculations are compared with results of experimental modelling, further on, several dams and one river levee were analysed from the view of their breaching due to overtopping and piping. The conclusions focus on the practical recommendations dealing with the increase of earth dam resistance against breaching in case of their overtopping. Finally, the necessary steps of the assessment of potential earth dam breaching and its modelling are mentioned.

The seas cover over two thirds of our planet and yet most of us live our lives on land, creatures of a different element, at once fascinated and terrified by the beauty and power of these great bodies of water. There are some, though, who go to sea, who get to know its many moods -- the tranquil and mirror-like, the raging and ripple-swept -- and who bring back with them their stories of wonder and warning. Hannah Stowe is one such sea-goer and one such storyteller.Having been raised at the tide's edge on the Pembrokeshire coast, falling asleep to the sweep of the lighthouse beam, Hannah Stowe went to see straight after school and has worked on and studied the sea in depth. Drawing on her expertise as a marine biologist and sailor, and her experiences in the North Sea, the North Atlantic, the Mediterranean, the North Sea, the Celtic Sea, and the Caribbean, Move Like Water is an exploration of the human relationship with the sea, the powerful impression it has made on our culture, and the terrible damage we have inflicted upon its ecosystems. In shimmering, fluid prose, Stowe introduces us to six keystone marine creatures - the firecrow, sperm whale, the albatross, he humpback whale, the shearwater, and the barnacle - encouraging us to fall in love with the seas as she has, to appreciate their majesty and their vulnerability.This is a heartfelt hymn to the sea and an unforgettable introduction to one of the most gifted nature writers of the new generation.

Facebook had a problem. Along with its sister platforms Instagram and WhatsApp, it was a daily destination for billions of users around the world, extolling its products for connecting people. But as a succession of scandals rocked Facebook from 2016, some began to question whether the company could control, or even understood, its own platforms.As Facebook employees searched for answers, what they uncovered was worse than they could've imagined. The problems ran far deeper than politics. Facebook was peddling and amplifying anger, looking the other way at human trafficking, enabling drug cartels and authoritarians and allowing VIP users to break the platform's supposedly inviolable rules.It turned out to be eminently possible to isolate many of Facebook's worst problems, but whenever employees offered solutions their work was consistently delayed, watered down or stifled by a company that valued user engagement above all else. The only option left was to blow the whistle. In Broken Code, award-winning Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz tells the riveting inside story of these employees and their explosive discoveries, uncovering the shocking cost of Facebook's blind ambition in the process.
