Even the Onion treats us like a bunch of fanatics. Is this fair? I want to argue that it isn ’ t. Even if there are serious problems with some of the plot devices that Lost makes use of, these needn ’ t spoil the enjoyment of anyone who fi nds the series fascinating. Losing the Plot After airing only a few episodes of the third season of Lost in late 2007, the Italian TV channel Rai Due canceled the show. Apparently, ratings were falling because viewers were having diffi culty following the plot. Rai Due eventually resumed broadcasting, but only after airing The Lost Survivor Guide , which recounts the key moments of the fi rst two seasons and gives a bit of background on the making of the series. Even though I was an enthusiastic Lostie from the start, I was grateful for the Guide , if only because it reassured me 9 CCH001.inddH001.indd 9 99/18/10/18/10 77:13:28:13:28 AAMM 10 RICHARD DAVIES that I wasn’ t the only one having trouble keeping track of who was who and who had done what.

  • Cassville, Georgia 1850 - 1880
    CREATORS OF COMMUNITY: CASSVILLE, GEORGIA 1850 - 1880 by ALEXA ILENE CLAREMONT (Under the Direction of Thomas G. Dyer) ABSTRACT The question of what makes and destroys a community is part of human curiosity. Although current scholarship points to a persistence of community, Cassville, Georgia would seem to be an exception. Antebellum Cassville was wealthy, educated, and slaveowning, but in 1864, Union troops occupied and destroyed it. In the Civil War’s aftermath, railroad towns like neighboring Cartersville flourished while Cassville increasingly resembled an economic and social backwater. However, after the war, Cassville was spared some of the social trauma that rocked other Upcountry communities. During the 1870s, the economic instability which ruined many benefited Cassville. Merchants benefited from the increase in single-crop cultivation and many freedmen became landowners. The economic resurgence allowed white residents to fashion an identity based on the Lost Cause, while the growing black community founded organizations strengthening their own bonds. Although after the town’s destruction the community was irrevocably changed, a new Cassville emerged and flourished.

Amongst the jungles and ravenous animals that threaten the various settlements across the planet’s surface, Calli is dealing with something much more dire: her sick mother, who is slowly dying from an unknown sickness. With funds scarce, Calli decides to do the impossible: to locate auracite, a rare mineral native to Kipos, in the hopes that it will provide her with the money to afford a cure. She leaves home with her friend, the sly and scruffy Sera, and encounters a whole new world outside of her own, one that will force her to answer questions she never knew she needed to answer: how far is she willing to go for someone she loves? iii Table of Contents Prologue 1 Chapter 1 6 Chapter 2 21 Chapter 3 35 Chapter 4 57 Chapter 5 80 Chapter 6 92 Chapter 7 123 Chapter 8 136 Chapter 9 156 Chapter 10 165 Chapter 11 192 Chapter 12 220 Chapter 13 245 Chapter 14 260 Chapter 15 279 Chapter 16 296 Chapter 17 313 Chapter 18 333 Chapter 19 358 Chapter 20 374 Chapter 21 387 iv Chapter 22 397 Epilogue 403 v Prologue Diana Hayford remembers Autumn.
