  • Talking Books Catalogue
    Aaronovitch, Ben Rivers of London My name is Peter Grant and until January I was just another probationary constable in the Metropolitan Police Service. My only concerns in life were how to avoid a transfer to the Case Progression Unit and finding a way to climb into the panties of WPC Leslie May. Then one night, I tried to take a statement from a man who was already dead. Ackroyd, Peter The death of King Arthur An immortal story of love, adventure, chivalry, treachery and death brought to new life for our times. The legend of King Arthur has retained its appeal and popularity through the ages - Mordred's treason, the knightly exploits of Tristan, Lancelot's fatally divided loyalties and his love for Guenever, the quest for the Holy Grail. Adams, Jane Fragile lives The battered body of Patrick Duggan is washed up on a beach a short distance from Frantham. To complicate matters, Edward Parker, who worked for Duggan's father, disappeared at the same time. Coincidence? Mac, a police officer, and Rina, an interested outsider, don't think so. Adams,Jane The power of one Why was Paul de Freitas, a games designer, shot dead aboard a luxury yacht and what secret was he protecting that so many people are prepared to kill to get hold of? Rina Martin takes it upon herself to get to the bottom of things, much to the consternation of her friend, DI McGregor.

After two months of the Canadians putting their lives on the line everyday, the CIA and the US State Department try to come up with a plan to get their people out. Tony Mendez is an "ex filtration" specialist who proposes that they pose as a Canadian film crew scouting locations for a science fiction movie called Argo.

  • Nichols and Sense a Blog from Dr. Dawn Nichols Convent of the Visitation School
    Nichols and Sense A Blog from Dr. Dawn Nichols Convent of the Visitation School www.visitation.net/blog Book Ideas for Christmas (or Any Time) Last year, I asked my colleagues to share book recommendations with the broader Visitation community in the hopes that you could give books as gifts or simply find a good read for yourself. The resulting list ended up being very popular, so we have decided to once again share our recommendations. Following is a list of my colleagues’ book choices, broken into various categories, in their own words. Children and Young Adults: All of a Kind Family by Sydney Taylor: When I was a child, I read this series of books over and over and over again. How I loved the story of a Jewish family – two parents and five girls – living in the lower East Side of Manhattan in the early 1900s. Taylor made the family come to life through her writing about their relationships, daily lives, holidays, and the struggles they faced trying to make ends meet. The second book in the series – More All of a Kind Family – is still one of my favorite books of all time. Highly recommended for girls age 7-11. Elizabeth Arnstein Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery: This wonderful story about a feisty, talkative, redheaded orphan girl who comes to live with an elderly brother and sister at a farm on Canada’s Prince Edward Island was first published in 1908, and more than 50 million copies have been sold since. The previously lonely and much-neglected Anne, who had in the past created imaginary companions, blossoms in the warmth and love provided by Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert, and they in turn are warmed by her affection, talkativeness and imagination.

  • “Don't Borrow from Me Argentina” the Aftermath of the Largest Sovereign
    Final Draft: 20 March 2008 “Don’t Borrow From Me Argentina” The Aftermath of the Largest Sovereign Default in International Finance MARIANO SOTO GAJARDO∗ "We are going to take the bull by the horns. We are going to speak of the foreign debt. First, I announce that the Argentine state will suspend payment on the foreign debt.” (Inauguration speech of President Adolfo Rodriguez Saá, December 24, 2001) INTRODUCTION This is the story of a country that has learned how not to honour its contractual obligations. A country that has behaved opportunistically in restructuring its debt. A country that has claimed to negotiate in good faith with its creditors when its efforts to do so have been dubious to say the least. A country that has exploited every legal mechanism available to prevent its creditors from recovering their claims in court. This is the story of Argentina and its most recent sovereign debt restructuring. Argentina has a long history of defaulting on its obligations. After selling bonds listed on the London Stock Exchange in the early 1820s, the country defaulted on the bonds just a few years later and did not settle with the bondholders until ∗ LL.B.
