There are creatures lurking in our world. Obscure creatures long relegated to myth and legend. They have been sighted by a lucky-or unlucky-few, some have even been photographed, but their existence remains unproven and unrecognized by the scientific community.These creatures, long thought gone, have somehow survived; creatures from our nightmares haunting the dark places. They swim in our lakes and bays, they soar the night skies, they hunt in the woods. Some are from our past, and some from other worlds, and others have always been with us-watching us, fearing us, hunting us.These are the cryptids, and Systema Paradoxa tells their tales.***Ben Keep and Annetta Maikels have lived a quiet life since their first encounter with the unexplained, but when a copy of Natura Occulta falls into their hands-detailing strange phenomena that purportedly happened in their own backyard-they can't resist investigating further.But perhaps they should have...Not only does the secret they pursue come with a body count, but some involved want to add Ben and Annetta to that number. Caught between two inexplicable forces, their only hope to reclaim their lives is to solve the mystery.

"You won't find Knicksport, Long Island by any map, GPS, or main road. To get there, you must lose your way along lonely, tree-shadowed back roads that wind through grooves of time and reality, byways that trace the glacial hills, marshlands, and wooded pockets tucked into the suburban landscape growing like verdigris clinging to rock. You must step out of the daylit world into a town haunted by the lost and the missing, the hidden and the hunted because Knicksport is full of witches and monsters. If you can find your way there, you can walk down Main Street, admire the ships moored in the harbor, stop in at Raker's for a drink and soak up some of the local lore; stroll past the town's historic buildings and houses though you might not like what watches you from behind their curtains; sample the local fare though you might not like how it changes you; dig into the local history if you're not afraid of dark secrets; and even hike the hills at night if you're not worried about ever finding your way back. A Bright and Beautiful Eternal World collects a dozen tales of cosmic horror and monstrosities lurking beneath the civilized veneer of this mythical town, where artists, fishermen, scientists, writers, and everyday people (not all of them entirely human) live in the shadows of entities and powers beyond their comprehension, where the echoes of history never cease ringing, and if you hike into the hills at night or linger too long by the harbor, you might never find your way back"--

In this work the theories of Marx and Laozi are dialectically combined. The resulting synthesis is a positive materialist negation of Hegel's idealist dialectics. Syntheses are presented for Marx and Laozi in ontology, metaphysics, epistemology, scientific method, ethics and politics: the full spectrum of their foundational principles. The book is an attempt to reconstruct a materialist interpretation of Laozi, which can be put to work for Marxist theory.

So, you're a web developer on the .NET platform, and you're wanting to build a great-looking app?Take the guesswork out of your design and leave the "making it look good" part to the many designers who use the Bootstrap front end framework. Leverage your skills as a .NET developer and your background in ASP.NET and explore ways to leverage the MVC Framework with Bootstrap.This text walks you through a sample project with the explicit intent of using the MVC Framework with Bootstrap. Look at controllers, actions, views and how those fit with Bootstrap styling. Breakdown action filters and weave them together with specific elements of the design library.There are 30 easy-to-follow chapters in this book, all brief enough to finish during your morning coffee, all deep enough to teach you something new about Bootstrap, MVC or both, and source code for each chapter available online. After thirty short lessons you'll have a handle on how to get the most out of these two frameworks working together.

The Stars Will Sing Our Songs Long After We Are Gone... ...but who will remain to listen? Who will hear their sagas of conflict and discovery, their hymns of honor in the face of political intrigue, their ballads of tough calls made against the opposition of friends and enemies alike? Open your ears to these unyielding revelations which sing of humanity's place in the cosmos among distant worlds, of beings that exist outside our reality, and of shocking futures. Listen to their tales. Sometimes there are no good choices only hard calls. Though humanity may one day vanish, the stars forget nothing. We can only hope Vox Astra will be kind when they tell of us.

These creatures, long thought gone, have somehow survived; creatures from our nightmares haunting the dark places. They swim in our lakes and bays, they soar the night skies, they hunt in the woods. Some are from our past, and some from other worlds, and others that have always been with us-watching us, fearing us, hunting us. These are the cryptids, and Systema Paradoxa tells their tales.*** Summer on Long Island-hot, humid, idyllic... and terrifying? When fledgling photojournalist Ben Keep lands a freelance assignment to document the rediscovery of supposedly long-lost cryptid remains, he partners with biologist Annetta Maikels for the story-but the strange bones only open the door to deeper mysteries and dark secrets. As Ben and Annetta continue to investigate, evidence of more than one living, breathing cryptid surfaces in what wildlands remain between the summer hotspots of Eastern Long Island, leaving them wondering... Will they solve this decades' old mystery, or become one more vanishing chapter in the ongoing tale?
