No such warning was included on the latest and greatest release from the Warcraft series of massive multiplayer on-line role-playing games (MMORPGs)?World of Warcraft (WoW). So when Ryan Van Cleave?a college professor, husband, father, and one of the 11.5 million Warcraft subscribers worldwide?found himself teetering on the edge of the Arlington Memorial Bridge, he had no one to blame but himself. He had neglected his wife and children and had jeopardized his livelihood, all for the rush of living a life of high adventure in a virtual world. Ultimately, Ryan decided to live, but not for the sake of his family or for a newly found love of life: he had to get back home for his evening session of Warcraft. A fabulously written and gripping tale, Unplugged takes us on a journey through Ryan's semi-reclusive life with video games at the center of his experiences. Even when he was sexually molested by a young school teacher at age eleven, it was the promise of a new video game that lured him to her house. As Ryan's life progresses, we witness the evolution of videogames?from simple two-button consoles to today's complicated multi-key technology, brilliantly designed to keep the user actively participating. As is the case with most recovering addicts, Ryan eventually hits rock bottom and shares with the reader his ongoing battle to control his impulses to play, providing prescriptive advice and resources for those caught in the grip of this very real addiction.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. ? A gallery of stately trees around the world associated with times and events both historic and prehistoric.Moving and, as a way of connecting today's readers to significant moments of the past, effective.--Kirkus Reviews, Starred ReviewFor generations, trees have silently witnessed history's most pivotal moments. Here are their stories. In the sweep of wind over grass, near the pulse of rivers, we stand, monuments of barkand age-curled green.Above, an avalanche of stars.Below, the ocean of earth.Within, the uncounted livesbirthed, bloomed, and pluckedfrom the gardens we tend.We survive.We remember.We witness.In evocative verse and stunning artwork, Witness Trees is the story of the world's most enduring witnesses: the trees. From the Flower of Kent apple tree still standing in Sir Isaac Newton's yard, to the English oak given to Jesse Owens after facing down Hitler at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, to the California redwood saved from destruction by July Butterfly Hill, to the Callery pear tree still miraculously alive after the World Trade Towers fell, Witness Trees is a moving tribute to the world's most famous trees, many of which still need humanity's protection. Be moved, be inspired, be amazed by the quiet, reverberating voices of nature's sentinels: the witness trees.For each tree depicted, there is information about that tree and the events it witnessed. Among the trees lovingly discussed are 20 treees you can visit today.Van Cleave's decision to pull on both legend and historical fact works to the book's advantage here, underscoring the idea that trees are witness not just to events in human history but also to the narratives we create around them in our attempts to shape an unpredictable world into orderly stories. The trees have no need for such order, anchored solidly into the earth, and the somber tone and poetic text have an aloof thoughtfulness--not coldly emotionless but distant enough to see an arc of wonder in the progress of the world.--The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books 'Our roots run deep--/ they grip history, / a restless forever, ' open the incantatory first-person plural lines propelling this tribute.landscape illustrations comfortably portray historical and geographical scenes.By piling on examples, Van Cleave impresses upon readers trees' enduring power.--Publishers Weekly. Ð?m, Ð?m (illustrator).…
