Growing up as SuperTramp aerialists on the Cirque du Panterra family’s sprawling sheep station in Outback, Australia, is an amazing adventure filled with wonder and magic. Following the destruction of habitat from raging bushfires, Xtarla and Rick Panterra join in the search and rescue of injured wildlife. While sheltering in an abandoned opal mine from a hot spot flare-up, the team discovers injured koalas, which are transported to a field hospital and wildlife sanctuary, where they are found to be mutants. From there, the koalas are transferred to the family’s Panterra Xtar Rancho Habitat and Wildlife Sanctuary outside of Las Vegas for protection and further study. The Panterra SuperTramps accompany the koalas as their handlers and begin to discover burgeoning superpowers along with uncanny code-cracking skills. Once they break into the storage vaults contained in the labyrinth underneath the old MobXtar Grand Marquis Hotel and Resort, their odyssey begins as they time-slip into parallel dimensions and they discover dual credentials into the galaxy.

❤ He see what she hides . . . even from herself. ❤ Seasons in a Small Town -- Autumn Meet Josh Kincannon, high school principal, single father of three, and thus, as he reminds himself ruefully, essentially celibate back into misty memory and forward into the foreseeable future. After three months of trying to work with Vanessa Irish via phone and e-mails on a project to help tiny Drago, Illinois, Josh believes he has an accurate picture of Zeke-Tech's CFO: Conscientious? Oh, yeah. Intelligent? Absolutely. Agreeable? Not so much. Even his upbeat approach is challenged by their grumpy-sunshine opposites. But there’s no way to avoid a heavy dose of forced proximity if he wants the best for Drago. Then he catches sight of her wild, vibrant robe and begins to wonder ... Every time Vanessa goes into her I'm-so-boring-I-disappear-against-white-walls act, he remembers that vibrant, wild fabric hanging on the corner of a door and he gets curious. And the more curious he becomes, the more he discovers about her that has him feeling things a whole lot hotter than curiosity. Things that threaten that celibacy claim, scrape against his high school principal job, and shake up life with his three kids. Numbers, that's where Vanessa is comfortable. Not all this interaction with people that she's been pitched into. Especially interacting with Josh Kincannon. Why does he insist on drawing her into his town, his life, his family? And the biggest question — what kind of man is this, who not only looks at her, but SEES her, when that's the last thing she wants? Falling for Her, Book 3 of USA Today bestselling author Patricia McLinn's Seasons in a Small Town series, is a moving, passionate contemporary romance.

Here today, gone tomorrow? When former army ranger Josh Manning comes to close-knit Covenant Falls, he knows he won't be staying long.

Eve, a young widow, has a precocious son and a band of misfit pets. Definitely not his type. Besides, she deserves much more than he can give. Unless, against all his instincts, he's ready to make one more promise.

Oxford Handbooks offer authoritative and up-to-date reviews of original research in a particular subject area. Specially commissioned chapters from leading figures in the discipline give critical examinations of the progress and direction of debates, as well as a foundation for future research. Oxford Handbooks provide scholars and graduate students with compelling new perspectives upon a wide range of subjects in the humanities, social sciences, and sciences. The adage Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it is a powerful one for parents, teachers, and other professionals involved with or interested in deaf individuals or the Deaf community. Myths grown from ignorance have long dogged the field, and faulty assumptions and overgeneralizations have persisted despite contrary evidence. A study of the history of deaf education reveals patterns that have affected educational policy and legislation for deaf people around the world; these patterns are related to several themes critical to the chapters of this volume. One such theme is the importance of parental involvement in raising and educating deaf children. Another relates to how Deaf people have taken an increasingly greater role in influencing their own futures and places in society. In published histories, we see the longstanding conflicts through the centuries that pertain to sign language and spoken communication philosophies, as well as the contributions of the individuals who advocated alternative strategies for teaching deaf children. More recently, investigators have recognized the need for a diverse approach to language and language learning. Advances in technology, cognitive science, linguistics, and the social sciences have alternately led and followed changes in theory and practice, resulting in a changing landscape for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals and those connected to them. This second volume of the The Oxford Handbook of Deaf Studies, Language, and Education (2003) picks up where that first landmark volume left off, describing those advances and offering readers the opportunity to understand the current status of research in the field while recognizing the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead. In Volume 2, an international group of contributing experts provide state-of-the-art summaries intended for students, practitioners, and researchers. Not only does it describe where we are, it helps to chart courses for the future.
