responsibilities in supporting pupils with psychological
development? Psychology has underpinned educational practice since

a team of practitioners and psychologists, this book draws together

professional journey.

Police Chief Dan Connor and Stephanie return in the third volume
of "The Ni'il Trilogy." They have now defeated the monster
ni'ilaquo twice, but they know it will no longer underestimate
their strength. As they prepare for the next battle they recieve a
cryptic warning: "Wokani tsi." They quickly learn that it means
"the turtle awakes," and that it's bad, but little else. As they
explore the local Natives' lore looking for answers, Dan's
political enemies start to move against them and they begin to
realize that ni'ilaquo is the least of their problems. The stakes
have never been so high. For if they fail now, everything,
lterally, could cease to exist.

Police Chief Dan Connor and Stephanie Amis return in this sequel to
Ni'il: the Awakening to continue their battle with ni'ilaquo. This
time the situation is different. They know exactly what kind of a
monster they're facing.
As the people of Placerton clean up from what they believe was
just a very bad storm, Dan and Stephanie prepare for ni'ilaquo's
next move. Then a new player shows up with powers like theirs, but
someone they've never sensed before. He is a Catholic priest from
the Vatican, visiting Placerton to help them destroy ni'ilaquo. He
belongs to a secret order that's been fighting pagan gods for
centuries and knows exactly how to win their battle.
It sounds like just what they need. Dan and Stephanie know they
won the last time mainly through good luck. But something about the
priest bothers Dan and he declines his help. His instincts are
quickly proven correct when Placerton is ripped apart by hatred and
violence. Soon even Dan's friends are turned against him.
Dan and Stephanie must find a way to keep Placerton from
tearing itself apart before they can even begin to fight their real
enemy. Ni'ilaquo.
In this enlightening book James Boyle describes what he calls the
range wars of the information age--today's heated battles over
intellectual property. Boyle argues that just as every informed
citizen needs to know at least something about the environment or
civil rights, every citizen should also understand intellectual
property law. Why? Because intellectual property rights mark out
the ground rules of the information society, and today's policies
are unbalanced, unsupported by evidence, and often detrimental to
cultural access, free speech, digital creativity, and scientific
innovation. Boyle identifies as a major problem the widespread
failure to understand the importance of the public domain--the
realm of material that everyone is free to use and share without
permission or fee. The public domain is as vital to innovation and
culture as the realm of material protected by intellectual property
rights, he asserts, and he calls for a movement akin to the
environmental movement to preserve it. With a clear analysis of
issues ranging from Jefferson's philosophy of innovation to musical
sampling, synthetic biology and Internet file sharing, this timely
book brings a positive new perspective to important cultural and
legal debates. If we continue to enclose the "commons of the mind,"
Boyle argues, we will all be the poorer.
When several people are brutally killed in the town of Placerton,
on the isolated Oregon coast, most locals think a rogue bear or
cougar is roaming the forested hills near town. Police Chief Dan
Connor is not so sure. He has witnessed some very strange things
lately, such as disembodied voices, muttering a strange foreign
language and an old Indian man who seems to be near every crime
scene, but disappears before he can be questioned.James has
published both poetry and short fiction and is an organizer for the
South Coast (Oregon) Writer's Conference. This is his first novel.
A student of Native culture, he used this background to create the
ni'il.
