Christopher Walken ("Wedding Crashers") leads an all-star cast, including Tom Skerritt and Martin Sheen, in a thriller that's ahead of its time. School teacher Johnny Smith (Walken) had a beautiful fiancee, rewarding career and a fortunate life. Until one tragic accident changed everything. After slamming into an 18-wheeler, Johnny is plunged into a five-year coma. When he awakens, he finds his true collision was with destiny - he now has the remarkable gift (or curse) of seeing into the future. From horror master Stephen King and director David Cronenberg, this supernatural thriller turns an everyday guy into a reluctant hero...saving children in danger, helping the police and capturing serial killers. But Johnny's next vision may be his most terrifying yet, and gives him a once-in-a-lifetime chance to save the world...at what may be the ultimate price.


The Abomination by Paul Golding, ISBN 0375724397

Cruising the seamy underbelly of London's gay scene, James Moore Zamora is as eager to repel men as he is to seduce them. Handsome, sophisticated, intelligent, and vain, beneath his immaculately maintained exterior lies an elaborate network of deeply embedded scars from a lifetime filled with betrayal and isolation. Born to negligent, self-absorbed parents and raised among upper crust society on a picturesque Spanish island, at nine-years-old James is sent off to an exclusive Catholic boarding school in England. Met with savageness by his peers, and seduced by the twisted affections of his teachers, he soon develops a self-consciousness that passes for self-awareness and a profound cynicism that masks savage anger. Charged with linguistic precision, brutal honesty, and caustic wit, The Abomination is a disturbing yet electrifying account of one man's tortured coming of age.

Energy Scavenging for Wireless Sensor Networks: With Special Focus on Vibrations

The vast reduction in size and power consumption of CMOScircuitry has led to a large research effort based around the visionof ubiquitous networks of wireless communication nodes. The wirelessdevices are usually designed to run on batteries. However, as thenetworks increase in number and the devices decrease in size, thereplacement of depleted batteries is not practical. Furthermore, abattery that is large enough to last the lifetime of the device woulddominate the overall system size, and thus is not very attractive.There is clearly a need to explore alternative methods of poweringthese small communication nodes. This book, therefore, focuses onpotential "ambient" sources of power that can be scavenged orharvested and subsequently used to run low power electronics andwireless transceivers.A wide range of potential power sources are briefly explored. Based ona comparison of these many potential sources, commonly occurringvibrations was chosen as an attractive, and little explored, powersource....

Horse People: Scenes from the Riding Life

Bestselling author Michael Korda's Horse People is the story -- sometimes hilariously funny, sometimes sad and moving, always shrewdly observed -- of a lifetime love affair with horses, and of the bonds that have linked humans with horses for more than ten thousand years. It is filled with intimate portraits of the kind of people, rich or poor, Eastern or Western, famous or humble, whose lives continue to revolve around the horse.

Korda is a terrific storyteller, and his book is intensely personal and seductive, a joy for everyone who loves horses. Even those who have never ridden will be happy to saddle up and follow him through the world of horses, horse people, and the riding life.
