Graeme Stockbridge is America’s best TV journalist and nightly news anchor, unequalled in talent and charisma. He’s at the height of his career. But now, Graeme would like to drastically slow down whenever he’s off the air. Rather than doing the news from the constant tumult of his network’s studios, Graeme decides he wants to broadcast year-round from a small working ranch in semi-rural Idaho. Instead of being caught in the noisy rush of big city life, he wants to continue his work but also to enjoy farming, ranching and nature while living near Hiram, a small Idaho town where neighborliness is key. In his free time, Graeme wants to take long, traffic-free walks in the quiet countryside, try his hand at agriculture, rediscover photography, study birds, plants and insects, wander the canyons of the Snake River, enrich his marriage and further explore the meaning of his life. Graeme’s network resists his grand idea; his wife Lara, a noted architect, also resists; and his TV-pioneer father resists. On top of that, not everyone in the little town of Hiram is as welcoming as one might expect. Far from it. Hiram and the surrounding areas have many charming residents and more than a few slightly-oddball types, mostly harmless and often fun. But there are also those people who like to flaunt their rights under Idaho’s open-carry law, those who like to challenge all levels of government and those who keep parts of their lives well-hidden—for good reason. In seeking to move away from the ultra-fast pace of network news in Los Angeles and New York, Graeme sets in motion a serious of events which lead to tragedy, and which take him and Lara into a world of secrets and danger. The novel goes behind the scenes into control rooms and studios during major television broadcasts, into the adrenalin-infused complexities of covering of a national news crisis, into the machinations of corporate boardrooms and out into the remarkable Idaho countryside—a world of dramatic scenery, incredible raptors and an amazing insect, the dragonfly. HOVER POINT is told with Eric Wallace’s usual flair, quiet humor and gorgeous prose. It is an intriguing mixture of drama, philosophical observations, lyricism, wit and suspense, with a great lineup of characters, including an operatic pathologist, an enigmatic sheriff, a sociopathic university professor and a border collie named, not without good reason, Trepidation.

Ethical and Legal Issues in Neurology

Chapter 21. Ethics in neurodevelopmental disability

By: Eric Racine,Emily Bell,Michael Shevell

Neurodevelopmental disabilities, like autism spectrum disorders and cerebral palsy are a common health problem in children. Given the impact of these conditions on children, families, and healthcare and social systems, the care of developmentally challenged children raises questions related to values and ethical principles. We review the common features of neurodevelopmental disorders that help understand the associated ethical questions. We focus on three major areas where ethical questions arise for clinicians and those involved in making decisions for or caring for these children: (1) the principles of decision-making and autonomy as they relate to developmental disability; (2) the issues related to quality of life that have long intersected with developmental disability; and (3) the use of unproven therapies and diagnostics that are particularly controversial given the extent that neurodevelopmental disabilities impact children and their families, yet active treatments options are limited.

Unbeatable

Dublin's Incredible Six in a Row

By: Eric Haughan

In August 2014, Jim Gavin's Dubs seemed unstoppable. They were playing football at a level not seen in years – overwhelming opposition and seemingly growing stronger with every game. Nobody saw it coming: Donegal's beautifully timed semi-final ambush. The Ulstermen laid bare a chink in the Sky Blues' armour; a tactical hole which Gavin immediately set about filling. Dublin would not lose a championship game again for 2,540 days ... Eric Haughan deep-dives into Dublin's seven years in footballing nirvana, an era of dominance and drama in which Gaelic football changed forever. Reviewing crucial matches and speaking to players and backroom staff, he pieces together the story of arguably the greatest side the game has ever seen ... and the teams who tried to catch them.

Blues

A Regional Experience

By: Bob L. Eagle,Eric S. LeBlanc

Examining the blues genre by region, and describing the differences unique to each, make this a must-have for music scholars and lay readers alike. A melding of many types of music such as ragtime, spiritual, jug band, and other influences came together in what we now call the blues. Blues: A Regional Experience is the most comprehensive and up-to-date reference book of blues performers yet published, correcting many errors in the existing literature. Arranged mainly by ecoregions of the United States, this volume traces the history of blues from one region to another, identifying the unique sounds and performers of that area. Each section begins with a brief introduction, including a discussion of the region's culture and its influence on blues music. Chapters take an in-depth look at blues styles from the following regions: Virginia and the tidewater area, Carolinas and the Piedmont area, the Appalachians and Alabama, the Mississippi Delta, Greater Texas, the Lower Midwest, the Midwest, the Northeast, and California and the West. Biographical sketches of musicians such as B.B. King and T-Bone Walker include parental data and up-to-date biographical information, including full names, pseudonyms, and burial place, when available. The work includes a chapter devoted to the Vaudeville era, presenting much information never before published. A chronology, selected artists' CD discography, and bibliography round out this title for students and music fans.

Promoting Treatment Adherence

A Practical Handbook for Health Care Providers

By: William T. O'Donohue,Eric R. Levensky

In Nazi Germany, the cult of celebrity was the embodiment of Hitler s style of cultural governance. Hitler s rise to power owed much to the creation of his own celebrity, and the country s greatest stars, whether they were actors, writers, or musicians, could be one of only two things. If they were compliant, they were lauded and awarded status symbols for the regime; but if they resisted or were simply Jewish they were traitors to be interned and murdered. This fascinating analysis offers a shocking portrait of a Hitler shaped by aspirations to Hollywood-style fame, of the correlation between art and ambition, of films used as weapons, and of sexual predilections. The Fuhrer believed he was an artist, not a politician, and in his Germany politics and culture became one. His celebrity was cultivated and nurtured by Joseph Goebbels, Germany s supreme head of culture. Hitler and Goebbels enjoyed the company of beautiful female film stars, and Goebbels had his own casting couch. In Germany s version of Hollywood there were scandals, starlets, secret agents, premieres, and party politics. The Third Reich would launch filmmaker and actress Leni Riefenstahl to prominence by making her its own glorifying documentarian, most famously in The Triumph of the Will, the innovative propaganda film starring Hitler and widely considered to be one of the greatest movies ever made. It is no coincidence that Eva Braun, Hitler s longtime partner and wife for the two days leading up to their joint suicide, was a photographer, and in fact shot most of the surviving photographs and film footage of her lover. This book reveals previously unpublished information about the Hitler film, which Goebbels envisaged as the greatest story ever told, although it was ultimately trumped by the dictator s own, real-life Wagnerian finale.
