Two people, despite being in different points of life, battle a shadow with different faces. Seventeen-year-old Nicolas and his mother escape his insane father's torment by moving to an apartment outside of town. When he started to suffer from hallucinations similar to his father's, he feared he'd end up exactly like his father did. His new neighbor stepped in and began shedding more light on what was really at play. Police detective Erik pursued the head of the notorious Surkins gang that resettled in Welltown. Strange hallucinations and nightmares began plaguing him during the chase. Upon capturing the gang leader, Erik discovered that these trances are caused by whatever the Surkins worship. Erik teams up with a crew of scientists and soldiers who came to stop this force, while Nicolas must trust his neighbor to battle it. As time passes, the events only worsen, and it became clear that this Shadow was beyond what they could understand. It threatened to kill everyone they loved and destroy all they knew.

It¿s not every day that we wake up and decide to put life on hold and start living. This is what Jonathan did after turning forty. Having realized that probably he had already lived half his life he decided to embark on a sabbatical to enjoy time off, reflect about his life and make sure he was living life on his terms and not on someone else¿s. Coming from a small Mediterranean island, culture and circumstance often dictate our actions, behaviors, and next steps. Jonathan broke with this norm and is calling on us to re-evaluate what really makes us tick. #Forty is a journey which questions the way we have done things and assists us in answering the ¿what next?¿. It is our journey ¿ one of self-discovery. A thought provoking, easy to use hand book of a few of the life lessons Jonathan has picked up along the years and others which he is still working on. Pick it up, put it down. Read a chapter or two and reflect. Use it whichever way you wish ¿ there is a lesson for each and every one of us. Most of all ¿ enjoy the journey. Table of Contents: 1.

The next UK SDSR is scheduled for 2015. We should not set our expectations too high. Whitehall, says Shaw, is locked within frameworks of language and custom that are a hindrance to clear thinking about defence requirements and their implementation. 'Unfit for Purpose' exposes the workings of Whitehall to reveal a fragmented structure and culture.
