On November 2, 1983, Sam and Dean Winchester lost their mother to a demonic supernatural force. In the wake of the tragedy, their father, John, set out to learn everything he could about the paranormal evil that lives in the dark corners and on the back roads of America . . . and how to kill it. In his personal journal, he not only compiled folklore, legend, and superstition about all manner of otherworldly enemies but he also recorded his experiences-hunting the creature that killed his wife even as he raised his two sons.
All things must pass. In an understatement of historic proportions, quite a few things have passed since the end of the last millennium, when The Handy History Answer Book was first released. A new era has taken shape, and a fully-revised edition of The Handy History Answer Book records it with more than 150 new questions and answers that expand on the more than 1,000 covering past millennia. A concise guide to all things historical, Handy History addresses people, times, and events in a wide-ranging and comprehensive manner, complemented by more than 125 illustrations and, for those who like their history instant, a chronology of major events.
This book fills a longstanding need for a basic introduction to
Cognitive Grammar that is current, authoritative, comprehensive, and
approachable. It presents a synthesis that draws together and refines
the descriptive and theoretical notions developed in this framework
over the course of three decades. In a unified manner, it accommodates
both the conceptual and the social-interactive basis of linguistic
structure, as well as the need for both functional explanation and
explicit structural description.
Pictures have their own language,own interpretation.Sometimes they cross the limit of word so can say more than a description.Here in this file we will get 80 English Proverbs in 11 pages with colour illustrations in a comic manner so that we can interpret and remember them easily.
Using her mobile phone-camera, Meaghan Wallace records the death scene of an underage Asian girl at the home of a wealthy Australian businessman. Before she's caught, she sends the digital video to a friend. When Meg is murdered, her boss hires P. I. Makedde Vanderwall to investigate. Mak seeks answers from the seedier sides of Sydney and Melbourne, including strippers, junkies, and a dominatrix named Serena. Moss reads the book herself, and while her reading is not flash and fireworks, it's intelligent storytelling delivered in a straightforward manner. Her voice is rich and pleasant, and she avoids overdoing characterizations. The fourth in Tara Moss's series about the gorgeous ex-model-forensic psychologist-private investigator is fast paced and fun.
