Robin Hobb - Liveship Traders on ePub

Robin Hobb is the second pen name of novelist Margaret Astrid Lindholm Ogden (born 1952 in California) who produces primarily fantasy fiction, although she has published some science fiction.

The Liveship Traders Trilogy consists of Ship of Magic, The Mad Ship, and Ship of Destiny. This Trilogy bridges a gap of time between Hobb’s Farseer Trilogy and The Tawny Man Trilogy, which continues the adventures of Fitz and the Fool some years later. Although The Liveship Traders Trilogy is separate from Farseer and Tawny Man, it does feature the Fool in a minor, but delightful, role.

The Liveship Traders Trilogy mainly takes place southwest of The Six Duchies in Bingtown (a colony of Jamaillia) and focuses on Liveships (sentient ships). The trilogy is unusually nautical – an area seldom covered in fantasy – with the germ of it being apparently the idea of portraying ships whose figureheads are literally alive and sentient. While this trilogy does not follow FitzChivalry Farseer's life, it is linked to both the Farseer and Tawny Man trilogies.

Campus Bullying: An Epidemic : Free Download Magazine

Bullying is abusive treatment, the use of force or coercion to affect others, particularly when habitual and involving an imbalance of power. It may involve verbal harassment, physical assault or coercion and may be directed persistently towards particular victims, perhaps on grounds of race, religion, sex or ability

Title: Campus Bullying: An Epidemic   

Primary Category: Education

Changes on campus and on school buses can help reduce the number of bullying incidences. Over 33% of teens and 44% of middle schoolers report bullying problems while in school. Most students cite bathrooms, hallways, lunchrooms, stairwells, schoolyards, and classrooms as the places where bullying was most likely to occur. But as security options increase, there are some simple, but effective ways, to reduce the incidence of bullying. This paper explores:

    The educator's role in controlling bullying

    Options available to security to tackle this problem effectively

    What law enforcement and the legislator can do to make a difference

This white paper explores current trends in bullying on campus, the statistics, and different ways students, parents, administrators, law enforcement and security can work together to prevent bullying and keep campuses safer.

Eloisa James : This Duchess of Mine

This Duchess of Mine - Book five in The Desperate Duchesses series

» This is the fifth book in the Desperate Duchess series. So, although it stands alone, some characters, such as the Duke of Villiers, appeared first in earlier books. Villiers’s story, A Duke of My Own, will be next in the series, publishing in August, 2009.

» Every book in the Desperate Duchess series opens with the party that closed the previous book. Here’s the party circuit, so far: Desperate Duchesses closed with Jemma’s party to celebrate her brother’s dueling victory; Affair Before Christmas opened at that same party and ended with Jemma’s Twelfth Night masquerade; Duchess by Night opened with the masquerade and ended at Lord Strange’s endless house party; When the Duke Returns began at that house party and ended on the King’s yacht, the Peregrine. This Duchess of Mine opens on the yacht, and ends on at a benefit ball given by Jemma. And the opening of A Duke of My Own? As my son would say, that’s a no-brainer.
