Event $3.89 In the summer of 1947, an unidentified object crashed in Roswell , New Mexico . There were no survivors. Now it’s happened again. But this time, two creatures have emerged from the wreckage alive . . . One is a small being that is kind and benevolent, brimming with intense emotion and intelligence. The other, however, is an animal of remarkable strength and power. It has been brought clandestinely to our world with one sole purpose: the total extinction of all life on Earth. It is called the Destroyer of Worlds. Only the Event Group, the most secret agency in the history of the U.S. government, is prepared to wage battle against such a creature. The Event Group is a dedicated collection of the nation’s most brilliant men and women of science, philosophy and the military. Their difficult task: solving the mysteries of the past and uncovering the hidden truths behind the myths and legends propagated throughout world history. In doing so they protect America from past mistakes—and ensure that history’s errors will never be repeated. An act of war that started in New Mexico decades ago, and was covered up by another far darker organization, has been discovered by the Group at the same time as the new and seemingly identical incident threatens to wipe out the Earth’s population. In the desert wastelands of the American Southwest, a battle is about to commence as the two creatures set out to fulfill their own destinies among the human race. Led by the valiant Major Jack Collins, the Event Group wages total war in the heat-soaked sands of the desert landscape. Using the benevolent creature as an ally and resource, they combine forces with the powerful might of the U.S. military and prepare themselves for an epic battle against the most dangerous threat against human existence that history has ever seen. Event tells of an epic struggle between two worlds. Author David Lynn Golemon has written a classic supernatural thriller, each page bringing human civilization closer to extinction, that proves a blistering roller-coaster ride of thrills and adventure. |

The Eli Event $8.09 LOS ANGELES VAPORIZED-9 MILLION DIE! 2015: Los Angeles is destroyed in the ELI Event, a space-weapon catastrophe that leads to a bleak and brutal distant future for all but the privileged few-unless rogue time-travelers from the twenty-fourth century can prevent the tragedy and mend the timeline.

ELI’s creators, scientists Stephen Wheeler and Kelly Duncan, find a mysterious ally in Arty, a mere janitor sent from the near future to prevent the ELI Event and change history. But there is another, anonymous player: ruthless Vice Governor Lokus has also jumped upstream to stop them and thus leave his elite and entitled future world unchanged.

The Cobra Event $6.29 The Cobra Event is set in motion one spring morning in New York City, when a seventeen-year-old student wakes up feeling vaguely ill. Hours later she is having violent seizures, blood is pouring out of her nose, and she has begun a hideous process of self-cannibalization. Soon, other gruesome deaths of a similar nature have been discovered, and the Centers for Disease Control sends a forensic pathologist to investigate. What she finds precipitates a federal crisis. The details of this story are fictional, but they are based on a scrupulously thorough inquiry into the history of biological weapons and their use by civilian and military terrorists. Richard Preston’s sources include members of the FBI and the United States military, public health officials, intelligence officers in foreign governments, and scientists who have been involved in the testing of strategic bioweapons. The accounts of what they have seen and what they expect to happen are chilling. The Cobra Event is a dramatic, heart-stopping account of a very real threat, told with the skill and authority that made Preston’s The Hot Zone an internationally acclaimed bestseller. From the Trade Paperback edition. |

Being and Event $19.55 Being and Event" is the centrepiece of Alain Badiou’s oeuvre; it is the work that grounds his reputation as one of France’s most original philosophers. Long-awaited in translation, Being and Event" makes available to an English-speaking readership Badiou’s groundbreaking work on set theory – the cornerstone of his whole philosophy. This book makes the scope and aim of Badiou’s whole philosophical project clear, enabling full comprehension of Badiou’s significance for contemporary philosophy. In Being and Event, Badiou anchors this project by recasting the European philosophical tradition from Plato onwards, via a series of analyses of such key figures as Descartes, Spinoza, Leibniz, Hegel, Rousseau, and Lacan. He thus develops the basis for a history of philosophy rivalling those of Heidegger and Deleuze in its depth.This wide-ranging book is organised in a precise and novel manner, reflecting the philosophical rigour of Badiou’s thought. Unlike many contemporary Continental philosophers, Badiou – who is also a novelist and dramatist – writes lucidly and cogently, making his work accessible and engaging. This English language edition includes a new preface, written especially for this translation. Being and Event" is essential reading for Badiou’s considerable following and anyone interested in contemporary Continental philosophy. |

Event Field $24.12 A young state of Israel reborn in war hosts many a secret…among them the events surrounding one intellectual family unwittingly muddied in operations of the country’s own security service. Zmam relays the intensity of Israeli existence through a dense and relentless mystery thriller overtoned with expressions of contemporary history and culture. It was the author’s intent as witness to fact during the nineties to convey by means fiction a moody brew of the real and contrived, especially those realms where the two happen to be same. The Draft portrays disparate experiences of two nationals and a Canadian tourist, adventurous girls facing adulthood with humour and courage in a modern militarized Israeli society, comprising book 2 of the series and following in the Zmam drama. It is a delving psychological probe into the question of identity and perspective and the ability to transcend beyond our long-held concepts of such. In the breathtaking stillness of Canada’s west a multinational array of armed forces converge undercover on intelligence maneuvers. Counterpoint constitutes book 3 of the "Event Field" trilogy following Zmam and The Draft. A witty dialogue amongst diverse characters marks their spiritual progression as opposing elements square off in final confrontation. |

The Rapture Event $22.99 “This book uses various Truths of Scripture to reveal the verifications of the end of physical life for all living persons. Some have misconstrued unintentionally the Truths pertaining to the Rapture Event. Some maintain their stand that a generation will not die. Their continued misunderstanding causes them to believe that some peoples of a particular generation are to escape death. They will stress that there are persons who will circumvent the explicit Truths of God revealed in Scripture, such as Hebrews 9: 27 KJV. This verse, and many others, plainly state that ALL persons die once. For a person with a mind willing to learn, they will through their faith provided to them by God, realize that not one person will ever escape death. Jesus The Christ did not escape death. Neither will Enoch and Elijah eventually. Contained herein is irrefutable proof that people do die in the fullness of time. J.Steve a crusader for Truths contained within Scripture. He professes that The Holy Spirit chose him to tie together, and to expound Truths of The Rapture Theory. The understandings of Truths are revealed in fullness of time for prophecies. He contends that persons of authority, who have acceptance by the masses, are in error in their interpretation of some end-time events. J.Steve is convinced that a person, no matter how strong their faith, or intelligent their deductive reasoning, should never alter Scriptures to be contrary to Truth. Jehovah stated that it is inevitable for people to die one time. That Truth must be understood not ignored. People should never attempt to change facts in Scripture to suit their desires. J.Steve further claims that he is willing to stand at the Judgment Seat ofChrist, to answer for this explanation of Truths found in the Scriptures, used to compile this manuscript.” |

The Novel as Event $39.92 ""The Novel as Event" brilliantly does two things: presents a strikingly new theory of the way novels have effect in the social world, and also presents original readings of five major Victorian novels as demonstrations of the way that theory may be exemplified in practice. No other book that I know of does either of these two things in at all the same way." —J. Hillis Miller, University of California, Irvine "I have no doubt that this book will become an important part of a renewed questioning of a certain unchallenged historicism prevalent in Victorian novel studies from the beginning." —Kevin McLaughlin, Brown University "The Novel as Event" is a timely reconsideration of the historical role of the Victorian novel from the perspective of its performativity. In a highly original application of the work of Jacques Derrida, Paul de Man, Pierre Bourdieu, Judith Butler, and other readers of J. L. Austin, Mario Ortiz Robles argues that the language of the novel is paramount and that the current emphasis on the representational and physical aspects of the novel tends to obscure this fact. He provides brilliant original readings of five major Victorian novels: Dickens’s "Our Mutual Friend," Bronte’s "Jane Eyre," George Eliot’s "Middlemarch," Thackeray’s "Vanity Fair," and Collins’s "The Woman in White," illustrating that it is impossible to fully grasp the cultural power of the novel, from its role in the cultivation of manners and the conduct of courtship to the consolidation of bourgeois ideology and the construction of the subject, without an adequate account of the performativity of its language. By considering the novel as a linguistic event, Ortiz Robles offers a new explanatory model for understanding how novels intervene materially in the reality they describe, and, in doing so, he seeks to reinvigorate critical debate on the historicity of the realist novel and current methods of cultural criticism. "The Novel as Event" serves as a well-timed corrective to the narrow historicist approach to the materiality of the novel that currently holds sway. Mario Ortiz Robles is Assistant Professor of English at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. Cover art: "Untitled page from Constance Sackville West Album."

A Blessed Event $3.95 How much is too much to ask of friendship? How long will the bonds of family endure when confronted with swift, unexpected change? These are the intimate questions Jean Reynolds Page poses in "A Blessed Event," her assured and powerful literary debut. Joanne Timbro and Darla Stevens have grown up in a small Texas town, their childhood homes separated only by adjoining back yards. Although the families inside these houses have little in common, the two girls find in each other a rare friendship that will take them into their adult lives; a friendship that makes them stronger together than either could be alone. Then as young women, Darla and Jo enter into an agreement that will startle everyone who cares for them. After years of watching Darla’s heartbreaking failure to have a baby with her husband, Cal, Joanne agrees to give birth to the child that Darla cannot have on her own. But in the early morning hours of a warm July morning, everything changes. Joanne, then four months pregnant, is driving a car that veers off the road near the home that Darla shares with Cal. In the days and months that follow, Darla must face for the first time in her memory, the possibility of life without Jo. As Darla tries to uncover the secrets that brought her friend out onto the highway in those dark morning hours, she discovers that she must also fight to keep the baby that was intended to be her child. With the child’s fate hanging in the balance, Darla searches for clues to Jo’s strange behavior leading up to the crash. In the process, she discovers truths that hide in her own life: in her marriage, in her closest friendships, and in a past that has suddenly reemerged, full of unfolding secrets. Tender and heartbreaking, hopeful and honest, "A Blessed Event" brings life’s everyday experiences into bright focus, contrasting beautifully the pain of suffering with the sublime joys of surviving–and truly living.

Lion-shifters, to be exact, who can unleash every woman’s animal side and still look good–make that spectacular–in a suit. . .and even better out of it. . . NYPD cop Desiree "Dez" MacDermot knows she’s changed a lot since she palled around with her childhood buddy, Mace. But it’s fair to say that Mace has changed even more. It isn’t just those too-sexy gold eyes, or the six-four, built-like-a-Navy Seal body. It’s something in the way he sniffs her neck and purrs, making her entire body tingle. . . Meanwhile, for Tennessean Ronnie Lee Reed, New York City is the place where any girl–even one who runs with a Pack–can redefine herself. First order of business: find a mate, settle down, and stop using men for sex. Even big, gorgeous, lion shifter men like Brendon Shaw. But she needn’t worry, because now that Brendon’s set his sights on her, the predator in him is ready to pounce and never let go. . . |

Event-Driven Soa $42.92 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Event- driven SOA is a form of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), combining the intelligence and proactiveness of event-driven computing architecture with the organizational capabilities found in service offerings. Before event-driven SOA, the typical SOA platform orchestrated services centrally, through pre-defined business processes, assuming that what should have already been triggered is defined in a business process. This older approach (sometimes called SOA 1.0) does not account for events that occur across, or outside of, specific business processes. Thus complex events, in which a pattern of activities -both random and scheduled-should trigger a set of services is not accounted for in traditional SOA 1.0 architecture. |

Event Horizon Conspiracy $19.98 Event Horizon Conspiracy is a tale of diabolical greed and power, wrapped in a mystery involving DNA research, cloaked by the enigma of the Mayan Calendar. In a literary sense, an Event Horizon is the point at which a projected solar system event becomes reality. When people first heard of pending world catastrophe tied to the Mayan Calendar, everyone wanted to know more. Scores of news stories and TV programs soon followed, mixing astronomical forecasts with prophesies from the Bible, the I Ching, Nostradamus and others, often creating controversial predictions about what would happen. Of the three major Mayan Calendar event predictions described in the book, two could destroy the earth and all life on it. But, the third offers hope to believers that they can survive and prevail. Event Horizon Conspiracy is a story about powerful people coming together to survive the event, by eliminating those that can compete against them for the food and other resources that remain. A half-century of progress in developing unique molecules of DNA to improve the health of the world offers the conspirators the means to accomplish their plans by destroying whole communities instead. But, first, they have to eliminate Jason Menard, the lead scientist for the DNA strand they plan to use. When Jason disappears, his cousin, Jim, launches a search. After finding Jason’s body, he follows a trail of intrigue and deception to a DNA Lab in Paris. There, amidst researchers arguing about their chances to survive Mayan Calendar events, he uncovers a fiendish plot to use Jason ‘s research for personal survival after the coming cataclysm. The drama unfolds as Jim and his colleagues desperately try to stop the conspirators from gaining access to the DNA. But the schemers fight back as the Event Horizon hurtles forward and time begins to run out to test the deadly strand on a group of unsuspecting subjects. If they succeed, you won t ever be safe again. |

The Weakness of God: A Theology of the Event $28.7 Applying an ever more radical hermeneutics (including Husserlian and Heideggerian phenomenology, Derridian deconstruction, and feminism), John D. Caputo breaks down the name of God in this irrepressible book. Instead of looking at God as merely a name, Caputo views it as an event, or what the name conjures or promises in the future. For Caputo, the event exposes God as weak, unstable, and barely functional. While this view of God flies in the face of most religions and philosophies, it also puts up a serious challenge to fundamental tenets of theology and ontology. Along the way, Caputo’s readings of the New Testament, especially of Paul’s view of the Kingdom of God, help to support the "weak force" theory. This penetrating work cuts to the core of issues and questions — What is the nature of God? What is the nature of being? What is the relationship between God and being? What is the meaning of forgiveness, faith, piety, or transcendence? — that define the terrain of contemporary philosophy of religion. |

Event Representation in Language and Cognition $74.31 Event Representation in Language and Cognition examines new research into how the mind deals with the experience of events. Empirical research into the cognitive processes involved when people view events and talk about them is still a young field. The chapters by leading experts draw on data from the description of events in spoken and signed languages, first and second language acquisition, co-speech gesture and eye movements during language production, and from non-linguistic categorization and other tasks. The book highlights newly found evidence for how perception, thought, and language constrain each other in the experience of events. It will be of particular interest to linguists, psychologists, and philosophers, as well as to anyone interested in the representation and processing of events. |

A Blessed Event: A Novel $13.19 How much is too much to ask of friendship? How long will the bonds of family endure when confronted with swift, unexpected change? These are the intimate questions Jean Reynolds Page poses in A Blessed Event , her assured and powerful literary debut. Joanne Timbro and Darla Stevens have grown up in a small Texas town, their childhood homes separated only by adjoining back yards. Although the families inside these houses have little in common, the two girls find in each other a rare friendship that will take them into their adult lives; a friendship that makes them stronger together than either could be alone. Then as young women, Darla and Jo enter into an agreement that will startle everyone who cares for them. After years of watching Darla’s heartbreaking failure to have a baby with her husband, Cal, Joanne agrees to give birth to the child that Darla cannot have on her own. But in the early morning hours of a warm July morning, everything changes. Joanne, then four months pregnant, is driving a car that veers off the road near the home that Darla shares with Cal. In the days and months that follow, Darla must face for the first time in her memory, the possibility of life without Jo. As Darla tries to uncover the secrets that brought her friend out onto the highway in those dark morning hours, she discovers that she must also fight to keep the baby that was intended to be her child. With the child’s fate hanging in the balance, Darla searches for clues to Jo’s strange behavior leading up to the crash. In the process, she discovers truths that hide in her own life: in her marriage, in her closest friendships, and in a past that has suddenly reemerged, full of unfolding secrets. Tender and heartbreaking, hopeful and honest, A Blessed Event brings life’s everyday experiences into bright focus, contrasting beautifully the pain of suffering with the sublime joys of surviving and truly living.

The Event of Postcolonial Shame $20.79 In a postcolonial world where structures of power hierarchy and domination operate on a global scale writers face an ethical and aesthetic dilemma: How to write without contributing to the inscription of inequality? How to process the colonial past without reverting to a pathology of self-disgust? Can literature ever be free of the shame of the postcolonial epoch–ever be truly postcolonial? As disparities of power seem only to be increasing such questions are more urgent than ever. In this book Timothy Bewes argues that shame is a dominant temperament in twentieth-century literature and the key to understanding the ethics and aesthetics of the contemporary world. Drawing on thinkers such as Jean-Paul Sartre Frantz Fanon Theodor Adorno and Gilles Deleuze Bewes argues that in literature there is an "event" of shame that brings together these ethical and aesthetic tensions. Reading works by J. M. Coetzee Joseph Conrad Nadine Gordimer V. S. Naipaul Caryl Phillips Ngugi wa Thiong’o and Zoë Wicomb Bewes presents a startling theory: the practices of postcolonial literature depend upon and repeat the same structures of thought and perception that made colonialism possible in the first place. As long as those structures remain in place literature and critical thinking will remain steeped in shame. Offering a new mode of postcolonial reading The Event of Postcolonial Shame demands a literature and a criticism that acknowledge their own ethical deficiency without seeking absolution from it. |

Meanwhile, Vanessa thought her journey to find Lincoln was over. She believed that the man she loved since the precious age of fourteen had long since forgotten her. Unaware that "fate" had led her there with the intent to heal her heart, Vanessa graciously refused a familiar stranger’s offer to buy her a meal, but had she known that person was Lincoln, she would have never declined. The Ash Tree Event was the result of Lincoln and Vanessa’s ten-year separation. It revealed their passion for each other and brought them together yet again to confirm a hidden love once believed to be nothing more than a childhood crush. |

But far from the usual collection of advice Brian has written a sharp sage warts-and-all survival guide to life. With quick wit and self-deprecating honesty Sack draws from his experiences tapping them for the humor within. Holding nothing back he: Gives the skinny on relationships don’t let the woman you love wander alone in France Commiserates about the death of the meritocracy wanting to sing doesn’t mean you can Recounts his awkward entry into fatherhood you’ll overcome your aversion to poo Offers firsthand advice avoid any bipolar lady with a drug-sniffing wonder-cat And argues that the Empire State Building is not a phallic symbol no matter what the professor said Every chapter takes on subjects ranging from the universal and mundane to the life changing and inevitable. With its funny and heartfelt musings from a father to a son In the Event of My Untimely Demise is a delightful life primer for all of us. |

Event Planning Ethics And Etiquette: A Principled Approach To The Business Of Special Event Management $22.49 The world of event planning can be alluring and dangerous at once-exotic locales, wining and dining, and people traveling without their spouses. In such situations the line between business and pleasure blurs and the nature of relationships gets cloudy.

And what you do personally can hurt you professionally. Event Planning Ethics and Etiquette provides event planners with the companion they need to stay out of trouble, keep professional relationships healthy and profitable, avoid the riskier temptations of the lifestyle, and win business in a highly competitive market using ethical business practices. Explains how to establish policies and codes of behavior, in the office and onsite at events.

Shows how to prepare yourself, as well as your staff, for what to expect, and how to handle the unexpected with business finesse.

Logics of Worlds: Being and Event, 2 $28.96 Logics of Worlds is the long-awaited sequel to Alain Badiou’s much-heralded masterpiece, Being and Event. Tackling the questions that had been left open by Being and Event, and answering many of his critics in the process, Badiou supplements his pioneering treatment of multiple being with a daring and complex theory of the worlds in which truths and subjects make their mark — what he calls a materialist dialectic. The radical recasting of ontology in Being and Event is followed and complemented here by a thoroughgoing transformation in our very understanding of logic, conceived as a theory not of being but of appearing. Unafraid to resurrect and reinvent the classical themes of philosophy, Badiou gives new meaning to concepts such as object, body and relation, mobilising them in arresting studies that range from the architectural planning of Brasilia to contemporary astronomy, and confronting himself with towering philosophical counterparts (Leibniz, Kant, Hegel, Kierkegaard, Lacan, Deleuze). The book culminates in an impassioned call to ‘live for an Idea’. |

Cheering for Self: An Ethnography of the Basketball Event $17.71 This paper is a study of UW men’s basketball fans during the 2001-2002 season and explores their proclivity to ‘cheering for self’ during basketball events. The term ‘basketball event’ is used rather than ‘basketball game’ to make clear that everything connected to and seen, heard, or experienced before, during and after a basketball game is included. The actual game itself is only part of the ‘basketball event. An undercurrent runs throughout this participant observation mini-ethnography dealing with access, and the relative quality of that access, to basketball events being affected by ones age, class, race, and gender. The prominent role of advertising in shaping basketball events and helping to construct fans as consumers of products (both commercial and institutional) during the process of cheering for self is central to this thesis. Cheering for self is the activity engaged in by individual fans after they find things to identify or connect with through personal investment. Fans cheer for self indirectly. Fans cheer for the team that they identify with. Through the process of cheering for self while attending the basketball event people are taught how to become fans, to consume a UW product–the basketball event and to consume advertisers’ products. |

Event-Cities 4: Concept-Form $42.65 "Event-Cities 4" is the latest in the Event-Cities series from Bernard Tschumi, documenting recent built and theoretical projects in the context of his evolving views on architecture, urbanism, and design. "Event-Cities 4" follows directly from the work of "Event-Cities 3," which examined the interaction of architectural content, concept, and context. This volume takes the interaction a step further, looking at a series of projects for which program or context are insufficient as a generative conceptual strategy, hence requiring a different approach. Tschumi has said, "Over the past years, there is one word I have almost never used, except in order to attack it: ‘form.’" In "Event-Cities 4," Tschumi introduces the "concept-form": a concept generating a form, or a form generating a concept, so that one reinforces the other. The concept may be programmatic, technological, or social. The form may be singular or multiple, regular or irregular. Concept-forms act as organizing devices or common denominators for the multiple dimensions of programs and their evolution over time, and drive the projects featured in this book. Highlights include master plans for a pair of media-based work spaces and cultural campuses in Singapore and Abu Dhabi; a major master plan for a financial center with 40,000 projected inhabitants in the Dominican Republic; the innovative Blue Residential Tower in New York City; a group of museums and cultural buildings in France, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and South Korea; a pedestrian bridge in France; and a "multi-programmatic" furniture piece, the TypoLounger. The book contains more than twenty of the Tschumi firm’s recent projects, showcasing the most current and forward-looking designs of one of the world’s leading architectural practices. |

The unmarked plane is a Soviet strategic bomber that disappeared with its crew more than fifty years ago while carrying two metric tons of weaponized anthrax. Desperate to prevent a political and diplomatic firestorm, the U.S. president dispatches a Covert-One team led by Lieutenant Colonel Jon Smith to the crash site. But others have reached the frigid, windswept island first, including an international arms dealer and his crew of vicious mercenaries. As for the Russians, they are lying: a second, even deadlier secret rests within the hulk of the lost bomber, a secret the Russians are willing to kill to protect. Trapped in a polar wilderness, Smith and his team find themselves fighting a savage war on two front–against an enemy they can see and another hiding within their own ranks. |
