Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2020 Banff Mountain Book Competition Finalist in Adventure Travel In Journeys North, legendary trail angel, thru hiker, and former PCTA board member Barney Scout Mann spins a compelling tale of six hikers on the Pacific Crest Trail in 2007 as they walk from Mexico to Canada. This ensemble story unfolds as these half-dozen hikers--including Barney and his wife, Sandy--trod north, slowly forming relationships and revealing their deepest secrets and aspirations. They face a once-in-a-generation drought and early severe winter storms that test their will in this bare-knuckled adventure. In fact, only a third of all the hikers who set out on the trail that year would finish. As the group approaches Canada, a storm rages. How will these very different hikers, ranging in age, gender, and background, respond to the hardship and suffering ahead of them? Can they all make the final 60-mile push through freezing temperatures, sleet, and snow, or will some reach their breaking point? Journeys North is a story of grit, compassion, and the relationships people forge when they strive toward a common goal.
Download or read book Barrier Free Design written by James Holmes-Seidle and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book for architects, interior designers, building managers, students, conference organisers looks at first principles to provide the user with the 'tools' to make their own decisions rather than a 'cookbook' approach. It is intended that designs and product information can be taken straight from the manual and inserted into ongoing projects. For the first time the book considers the needs of people with visual, hearing and mental disabilities, who make up the majority of disabled people in the population, alongside those of people with physical mobility disabilities. Practical low cost solutions to retro-fitting existing buildings are discussed, as well as the methods used to assess the suitability of an existing building, and assembling a project to improve access for disabled people. Specific products and designs are illustrated and discussed - with full working technical drawings, and full specification details. These will reduce considerably the research time needed to produce a cost-effective solution that will improve access for disabled people. A perspective of the standards and legislation dealing with access issues in the UK is compared with those in other countries, and the standards mentioned are compared with the realities of practical implementation carried out in 4 years of design in this area.

Book excerpt: Maria Paris cannot wait to begin college and start her new life. She’s been kept under the watchful eye of her NYPD mother and is just bursting to live on her own. Being originally from the Bronx, Maria wants to show the world what she is made of. Her plans to become a criminal attorney are paramount in life endeavors and she’s also ready to find that special someone to give herself to. Journey is about a young Puerto Rican girl name Maria Paris originally from Bronx, New York. While at the esteemed Meadow Marvels College, the first night proves to be standard with the usual Freshman Move-in Day and dinner at the student hall until her and her roommate, Lavette, arrive back at their room. They stumble upon sirens and flashing cameras when suddenly, the dean, Mr. Gary Stones, gets killed right in front of them by one of the girls who live with Maria and Lavette. There are now three bodies laid out in the entrance of dorm room 1F. Maria goes on a personal journey to find clues and answers to her questions. She probes newspaper articles and internet stories about the history of MMC and is determined to uncover the truth about the number one college in the state. However, the clues lead her to her mother, an NYPD detective who is in the running for the next New York City Chief of Police. She finds out her mother is not the person she thought she was, ultimately, leaving Maria wanting to find the truth behind who she is and why her mother has kept secrets from her. A week or so passes when Maria and Lavette discover they are both the prime targets in this game of cat and mouse. Maria has already had an attempt on her life when she was locked in a closet, but escaped. Lavette was already attacked by someone who was looking for Maria. The two girls call the police and are told that they must leave campus at once. The new dean of students, Mrs. Gwendolyn Rayes, is behind the murders and wanted Maria dead. Both girls sneak off-campus and are picked up by Detective Joe Reyes who is later killed as he was only moments away from finding out the truth for Maria and Lavette. The two are at the illustrious Waldorf Astoria when Maria’s dreams of finally seeing her mother come true. She has spoken to her mother and told her everything that is going on. Maria assures Lavette that all will be safe now and they have nothing to worry about. However, with the string of Maria’s bad luck lately, she is soon to find out that is not even close to the truth. Maria’s mother, Detective Carmen Paris, knocks on the door of the room and before Maria can open it, they receive a phone call telling her not to open the door. Maria’s mother is being held at gun point and the plan was to shoot her the minute Maria opened the door. Once Maria received the news, she obeyed and watched through the peephole as her mother’s life was taken right in front of her. Maria opened the door to watch the other detective, Cedric Hooker, flee behind the gunman. Carmen’s last words to Maria were “I’m sorry I never told you.” In order for Maria to cope with what is happening, she is assigned two guards to stand outside her room 24/7 and now has the current Chief of Police, Mrs. Gloria Reynolds, by her side every step of the way. Maria’s aunt Mirtha is also by her side explaining to Maria the secrets of why her mother got killed and who could have possible been behind it. When Mirtha explains to Maria that her mother was a twin, the notion floors Maria making her angry at the thought of her mother keeping a secret from her. Maria always thought the two of them were so close. MIrtha sees Maria’s apprehension, and quickly reassures her that her mother had nothing but the best intentions for her. Carmen’s sister, Antonia, was a product of an adulterous relationship that their mother had, and when their father found out, he banished Antonia from the family forcing her into prostitution and drugs. Carmen found this out and went looking for her sister only to find her father—Luis Paris—th
