Book Description
Storm Rise of the Pride, Book 12 Two weeks. That’s all it took for Storm Cooper to lose his mind over the disappearance of Amaya Bradley. After her abduction, he makes it his personal mission to find her and bring her back to the pride after a captured rogue confirms the worst. Amaya had been turned into his enemy. Amaya Bradley tries to fight the voice in her head, telling her to capture and give human females her blood. The memories she has from her old life only center around the friendship she has with the panther pride. The longer she’s with the wolves, the less she believes she will be rescued. She holds out hope they are searching for her, and with each outing to find more humans to turn for the wolf alpha’s army, she prays they will find her. When she’s rescued by the Guardian Storm, her world is changed, forever. He’s kind and caring, teaching her how to live as a shifter, but she has scars from her past. The animal that lives inside her gravitates toward him, knowing he is her home…the place she belongs, but will she be willing to tell him everything about her time as a human? Storm vows to bring the rogue alpha to justice. When the male is found, Storm will risk his own life to return home with Amaya’s freedom so they can finally make the connection and confirm their mating.

Rising Above the Gathering Storm, Revisited
Author: Institute of Medicine
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309160979
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 102
Book Description
In the face of so many daunting near-term challenges, U.S. government and industry are letting the crucial strategic issues of U.S. competitiveness slip below the surface. Five years ago, the National Academies prepared Rising Above the Gathering Storm, a book that cautioned: "Without a renewed effort to bolster the foundations of our competitiveness, we can expect to lose our privileged position." Since that time we find ourselves in a country where much has changed-and a great deal has not changed. So where does America stand relative to its position of five years ago when the Gathering Storm book was prepared? The unanimous view of the authors is that our nation's outlook has worsened. The present volume, Rising Above the Gathering Storm, Revisited, explores the tipping point America now faces. Addressing America's competitiveness challenge will require many years if not decades; however, the requisite federal funding of much of that effort is about to terminate. Rising Above the Gathering Storm, Revisited provides a snapshot of the work of the government and the private sector in the past five years, analyzing how the original recommendations have or have not been acted upon, what consequences this may have on future competitiveness, and priorities going forward. In addition, readers will find a series of thought- and discussion-provoking factoids-many of them alarming-about the state of science and innovation in America. Rising Above the Gathering Storm, Revisited is a wake-up call. To reverse the foreboding outlook will require a sustained commitment by both individual citizens and government officials-at all levels. This book, together with the original Gathering Storm volume, provides the roadmap to meet that goal. While this book is essential for policy makers, anyone concerned with the future of innovation, competitiveness, and the standard of living in the United States will find this book an ideal tool for engaging their government representatives, peers, and community about this momentous issue.

Pages : 590
Book Description
In a world where advanced knowledge is widespread and low-cost labor is readily available, U.S. advantages in the marketplace and in science and technology have begun to erode. A comprehensive and coordinated federal effort is urgently needed to bolster U.S. competitiveness and pre-eminence in these areas. This congressionally requested report by a pre-eminent committee makes four recommendations along with 20 implementation actions that federal policy-makers should take to create high-quality jobs and focus new science and technology efforts on meeting the nation's needs, especially in the area of clean, affordable energy: 1) Increase America's talent pool by vastly improving K-12 mathematics and science education; 2) Sustain and strengthen the nation's commitment to long-term basic research; 3) Develop, recruit, and retain top students, scientists, and engineers from both the U.S. and abroad; and 4) Ensure that the United States is the premier place in the world for innovation. Some actions will involve changing existing laws, while others will require financial support that would come from reallocating existing budgets or increasing them. Rising Above the Gathering Storm will be of great interest to federal and state government agencies, educators and schools, public decision makers, research sponsors, regulatory analysts, and scholars.
