Concentrate. Focus. Never, ever get distracted by anything…or anyone. Farrington High School Junior, Kate Kellner, has her whole future planned and a list of high-priority goals aligned. This season, she’s going to lead the Fighting Falcons to their first ever Midlands Conference title, break all the school pitching records, and impress a boatload of college recruiters so she can pick where she wants to go after she graduates from high school. But then, one day in the middle of a training session, Grady Hughes walks into her multipurpose room. Grady and his family just moved to Farrington. Because his mom is a staff sergeant in the United States Air Force, he’s used to leaving one town for another, but it’s rotten luck that she got her orders to get up and go in the middle of his senior year. He decides to try out for the baseball team and that’s when he first encounters Kate Kellner. She’s strong, powerful, and unbelievably intense. From their very first meeting, he’s blown away by her drive and determination. He’s never known anyone like her who is simultaneously stable and well-adjusted but also daring and audacious. Just watching her fire one pitch after another at the wall is enough to capture Grady’s interest. Smitten, he sets out to make friends with Kate, but not everyone in her life is thrilled by the way she reciprocates his attentions. Ty Masterson, Kate’s best friend since childhood and next-door neighbor, is less than pleased by Grady’s laid back, casual, and carefree attitude. And even Kate’s teammates speculate if having Grady as her friend is too much of a distraction. Will Kate be able to pull it altogether? Can she sacrifice a little of her self-discipline, in hopes of getting a whole lot in return? And is she really willing to risk losing everything she already holds dear just so she can have another close friend?

Media Piracy in Emerging Economies is the first independent, large-scale study of music, film and software piracy in emerging economies, with a focus on Brazil, India, Russia, South Africa, Mexico and Bolivia. Based on three years of work by some thirty five researchers, Media Piracy in Emerging Economies tells two overarching stories: one tracing the explosive growth of piracy as digital technologies became cheap and ubiquitous around the world, and another following the growth of industry lobbies that have reshaped laws and law enforcement around copyright protection. The report argues that these efforts have largely failed, and that the problem of piracy is better conceived as a failure of affordable access to media in legal markets.

In the beginning, the World Wide Web was exciting and open to the point of anarchy, a vast and intimidating repository of unindexed confusion. Into this creative chaos came Google with its dazzling mission—"To organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible"—and its much-quoted motto, "Don’t be evil." In this provocative book, Siva Vaidhyanathan examines the ways we have used and embraced Google—and the growing resistance to its expansion across the globe. He exposes the dark side of our Google fantasies, raising red flags about issues of intellectual property and the much-touted Google Book Search. He assesses Google’s global impact, particularly in China, and explains the insidious effect of Googlization on the way we think. Finally, Vaidhyanathan proposes the construction of an Internet ecosystem designed to benefit the whole world and keep one brilliant and powerful company from falling into the "evil" it pledged to avoid.

During the last few years, a large number of science-based games, simulations and case studies have been developed, and these are now starting to be built into the curricula of our schools, colleges and universities. The use of such exercises seems certain to increase as more and more teachers, lecturers and curriculum designers become aware of their great potential. Until now, however, these developments have been hampered by the fact that there has been no basic text on science-based games, and no source book to whcih potential users could refer to find out what exercises were available in their particular field. This book has been written in an attempt to fill both these gaps. - Introduction.
