DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the explosive finale to the epic romantic saga, Bella has one final choice to make. Should she stay mortal and strengthen her connection to the werewolves, or leave it all behind to become a vampire? When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give, how could you not give it? If it was someone you truly loved? To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare woven into a dangerously heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward Cullen, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, a tumultuous year of temptation, loss, and strife have led her to the ultimate turning point. Her imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals or to pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which the fates of two tribes hangs. This astonishing, breathlessly anticipated conclusion to the Twilight Saga illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic. It's here! #1 bestselling author Stephenie Meyer makes a triumphant return to the world of Twilight with the highly anticipated companion, Midnight Sun: the iconic love story of Bella and Edward told from the vampire's point of view.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis instructional Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu book & DVD combo offers a complete guide to ground fighting principles and techniques to use when the fight goes to the ground. In a street defense scenario, the ground is a dangerous place to be. While it's a good idea to learn defensive strategies for ground fighting actively, it is important to put those skills into the context of how you want to use them.

When the Fight Goes to the Ground establishes the risks and hazards of various ground defense scenarios, presenting effective strategies for neutralizing and minimizing them. You will learn a wide range of tools for defense, including the targeting of vital areas, body shifting/control techniques, and the concept of "weapons of opportunity." All of these techniques are easy to learn and apply, providing an adaptable skill set for anyone, regardless of size, strength or gender. These tools are then shown in various combinations, with examples of how to use them against specific types of attacks, including simple hold-downs, ground and pound, submission grappling pins, chokes, arm locks, leg locks, knife attacks and multiple assailant scenarios. In addition, this martial arts book gives you useful training suggestions and regimens, addressing graduated skill development, challenges presented by different body types, and safety practices at all levels of training.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKEvery choice has a cost. The fate of the Terran Coalition stands on a knife's edge. An anti-war president-elect stands ready to take the helm, with a platform of a peace treaty based on appeasement. The Coalition Defense Force has mere months to inflict maximum damage on the League's military capabilities in hopes of preserving all the gains paid for in blood. Before they're wiped away in favor of a tenuous peace. A peace Colonel David Cohen knows won't last. A treaty with the socialist League won't be worth the paper it's written on. The Coalition's best hope is to orchestrate a daring plan to cripple the enemy where it will hurt most - in the heart of their home turf. David is charged with leading a small but powerful force of CDF ships behind enemy lines to destroy key shipyards that will cut League military capabilities by seventy percent. But a serpent is most dangerous when cornered. When David is confronted with overwhelming League forces, he embarks on a desperate attack, using untested technology and tactics. Because the price for failure would be too high. Will the cost of success finally be too high to bear?
