A collection of recipes for the world's suavest classic cocktails,
inspired by the debonair persona and personal choices of Mr 007
himself. Everyone knows that James Bond prefers an alcoholic drink
to a soft drink. In fact, he even goes as far as deriding tea as
'mud' and blaming it for the collapse of the British Empire.
Although it's the legendary Vodka Martini that he's best known for,
he also orders many classic cocktails, including an Old-Fashioned,
an Americano and a Negroni, all of which appear in this book. Bond
also effortlessly creates his own drink in 'Casino Royale': 'Three
measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet.
Shake it very well until it's ice-cold, then add a large thin slice
of lemon peel. Got it?' And so the Vesper was born, to the delight
of bar owners across the globe. However, it's not only cocktails
that he's partial to. Bond orders Scotch and soda 21 times in the
books, but he's also keen on bourbon and a brandy and ginger ale.
So why not raise a glass and toast the health of the world's
most-loved, smooth-talking secret agent with one of his favourite
drinks.

Online social media have transformed the face of human interaction
in the 21st century. Wikis, blogs, online groups and forums,
podcasts, virtual worlds, and social tagging are but a few of the
applications enabling innovative behaviors that support
acquisition, access, manipulation, retrieval, and visualization of
information. It is, therefore, no surprise that educational
practitioners and theorists have begun to explore how social media
can be harnessed to describe and implement new paradigms for
communication, learning, and education. The editors' goal in
publishing this book was to identify original research on the
application of online social media and related technologies in
education as well as emerging applications in Web technologies that
could provide and shape future educational platforms. The selected
contributions deal with questions such as how social media can
truly enrich and enhance learning and teaching experiences in ways
not otherwise possible; how learning can be integrated in a
distributed and ubiquitous social computing environment; or what
theories, paradigms, and models are applicable for the support of
social computing in education. Researchers in education or
educational software will find interesting and sometimes
provocative chapters on paradigms and methodologies, virtual and
mobile learning spaces, and assessment and social factors.
Practitioners in these fields will benefit from an additional
section devoted to case studies and first experience reports.
Though little remembered in the great scheme of American History, a
mere tussle as battles go in a war that was hardly a war to speak
of, the Battle of Plattsburgh during the War of 1812 was as
stirring and important as any battle where American blood was
spilled in defense of our country, especially since it was one of
the few fought on our own soil against a foreign invader. It was a
small battle with a huge consequence for the nation at a turning
point in its early struggle for survival. This is a story about two
boys from Upstate New York during the War of 1812, and how their
desire to defend their country, along with their thirst for
adventure, leads them to become heroes in the Battle of
Plattsburgh. It is based on the events that actually took place
during the war in and around the Champlain Lake and Plattsburgh
areas. It is not only an accurate portrayal of the historical facts
and events, but it is also a stirring tale of adventure and
heroism. It will not only educate, but inspire and entertain.
Though almost forgotten in the welter of great events of our
country's past, nothing can negate what so few won with so much
bravery and so little cost, in the greatest battle that almost was
"Aunt Kimmie has done it again Following the success of her first
book, Magic Sprinkles, she has written another adorable tale that
will enchant, enthrall, educate, and entertain kids in equal
measure. The Goosie's New Pond follows Gerty and Gladys, two geese
who have a very big decision to make. Will they play it safe or fly
the flock and venture into the unknown? And what will Papa Jack
say?" -Katherine Kay, Freelance Writer "This is one book that no
child should be without. When Aunt Kimmie writes, kids read "
-Linda Kuhns, Mother of five, Grandmother of 11, and Guardian Ad
Litem "The Goosie's New Pond gives insight on why change can be a
positive instead of a negative. It allows kids to work through
their fears in a delightful way and encourages them to participate
in their own story. Brilliant " -Anne Makay, Teacher "Aunt Kimmie
works her storytelling magic in another terrific tale. The Goosie's
New Pond is a wonderful life lesson for kids and adults of all
ages. Illustrator J.R. Battell has created whimsical and unique
images that will capture a child's imagination and stay with them
long after the last page is turned." _Barbara Stanley, Talk Show
Host, This Week in Gallup (New Mexico).
