floored melanie harlow: Petrocultures Sheena Wilson, Adam Carlson, Imre Szeman, 2017-06-26 Contemporary life is founded on oil – a cheap, accessible, and rich source of energy that has shaped cities and manufacturing economies at the same time that it has increased mobility, global trade, and environmental devastation. Despite oil’s essential role, full recognition of its social and cultural significance has only become a prominent feature of everyday debate and discussion in the early twenty-first century. Presenting a multifaceted analysis of the cultural, social, and political claims and assumptions that guide how we think and talk about oil, Petrocultures maps the complex and often contradictory ways in which oil has influenced the public’s imagination around the world. This collection of essays shows that oil’s vast network of social and historical narratives and the processes that enable its extraction are what characterize its importance, and that its circulation through this immense web of relations forms worldwide experiences and expectations. Contributors’ essays investigate the discourses surrounding oil in contemporary culture while advancing and configuring new ways to discuss the cultural ecosystem that it has created. A window into the social role of oil, Petrocultures also contemplates what it would mean if human life were no longer deeply shaped by the consumption of fossil fuels. |
floored melanie harlow: Floored Melanie Harlow, 2015-03-02 Erin Upton is too embarrassed to tell the cops what she was really doing while her townhouse was burglarized, especially since the first officer on the scene is former nuisance next door Charlie Dwyer. Where's the justice in the world when a neighborhood know-it-all grows up to be six-foot-three inches of solid muscle with gorgeous blue eyes and a slow, sexy please-arrest-me-now-officer smile? It's bad enough she's wearing her robe and slippers—did he have to notice her fuzzy hand cuffs on the bathroom sink? He's arrogant as he ever was, which is fine by her—she's too busy with her dance studio's grand opening to make time for a man. But they keep crossing paths, and when Charlie offers to help her put in new flooring at the studio one night, things go from hammering nails to hammering each other in a hurry. And about those hand cuffs… They agree it's a one-time thing. But when that becomes a two-time thing, then a three-time thing, Erin starts to wonder if maybe she and Charlie could be a life-time thing. Her best friends Mia and Coco found love in unexpected places. Is it finally her turn? |

floored melanie harlow: Multiword expressions Manfred Sailer , Stella Markantonatou , 2018 Multiword expressions (MWEs) are a challenge for both the natural language applications and the linguistic theory because they often defy the application of the machinery developed for free combinations where the default is that the meaning of an utterance can be predicted from its structure. There is a rich body of primarily descriptive work on MWEs for many European languages but comparative work is little. The volume brings together MWE experts to explore the benefits of a multilingual perspective on MWEs. The ten contributions in this volume look at MWEs in Bulgarian, English, French, German, Maori, Modern Greek, Romanian, Serbian, and Spanish. They discuss prominent issues in MWE research such as classification of MWEs, their formal grammatical modeling, and the description of individual MWE types from the point of view of different theoretical frameworks, such as Dependency Grammar, Generative Grammar, Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar, Lexical Functional Grammar, Lexicon Grammar. |

floored melanie harlow: Revoked Allison Frankel, 2020 [The report] finds that supervision -– probation and parole -– drives high numbers of people, disproportionately those who are Black and brown, right back to jail or prison, while in large part failing to help them get needed services and resources. In states examined in the report, people are often incarcerated for violating the rules of their supervision or for low-level crimes, and receive disproportionate punishment following proceedings that fail to adequately protect their fair trial rights.--Publisher website. |
floored melanie harlow: Surveillance, Architecture and Control Susan Flynn, Antonia Mackay, 2019-01-21 This edited collection examines the culture of surveillance as it is expressed in the built environment. Expanding on discussions from previous collections; Spaces of Surveillance: States and Selves (2017) and Surveillance, Race, Culture (2018), this book seeks to explore instances of surveillance within and around specific architectural entities, both historical and fictitious, buildings with specific social purposes and those existing in fiction, film, photography, performance and art. Providing new readings of, and expanding on Foucault’s work on the panopticon, these essays examine the role of surveillance via disparate fields of enquiry, such as the humanities, social sciences, technological studies, design and environmental disciplines. Surveillance, Architecture and Control seeks to engender new debates about the nature of the surveilled environment through detailed analyses of architectural structures and spaces; examining how cultural, geographical and built space buttress and produce power relations. The various essays address the ongoing fascination with contemporary notions of surveillance and control. |

floored melanie harlow: A Secret for a Secret Helena Hunting, 2020 My name is Ryan Kingston, and I'm a rule follower. I've never been in a fistfight. I always obey the speed limit. I don't get drunk, and I definitely don't pick up random women at bars. Except the night I found out that my whole existence has been a lie. I got drunk. And picked up a stranger. Her name was Queenie, and she was everything I'm not: reckless, impulsive, and chaotic. We did shots and traded secrets. And ended up naked at my place. She left me a thank-you note in the morning and her panties as a parting gift. But no way to contact her. Six weeks later I'm sitting in the first official team meeting of the season, and there she is. I neglected to mention that I'm the goalie for Seattle's NHL team. And Queenie? Turns out she's the general manager's daughter. |

floored melanie harlow: Hero Lauren Rowe, 2021-09-25 The first time I laid eyes on Lydia Decker, I couldn't speak. Or breathe. Or string two coherent thoughts together. And I don't mean any of that figuratively. I'm not talking about a guy being floored by the sight of a gorgeous woman-although, of course, Lydia is gorgeous beyond words. No, when I first laid eyes on Lydia Decker-my physical therapist-I was lying flat on my back in the ICU, high as a kite on painkillers, breathing on a ventilator, my bones as broken and splintered as my spirit. When I first laid eyes on Lydia Decker, she was a ray of light in the dark. Hope for the hopeless. A salve for my singed and battered soul. She said she'd been assigned to fix me. That she was there to bring me back to life. She said helping me was her calling. And then she touched me. Physically, emotionally, spiritually. She healed me. And I fell in love. But what I didn't know . . . what I couldn't possibly know . . . was that Lydia Decker needed fixing far more than I ever did. Hero is a second chance, single-mother, forced proximity standalone contemporary romance in the MORGAN BROTHERS series of interconnected standalones. You'll sob, and then smile, swoon, and fan yourself, all the way to Colby and Lydia's much-deserved happily ever after. |

Three months later, through a mind-blowing series of events I couldn't have predicted, it turns out my boss is marrying the jerk's sister in Hawaii and I've got to play nice with him for an entire freaking week while trapped on an island. Okay, sure, I'll put on a happy face and act like I've never met him--did I mention his sister is marrying my boss?--but that doesn't mean I'll like it. And it certainly doesn't mean I'll stop secretly hating the cocky bastard's guts. Now, if only my brain would explain the situation to my body . . .

His family kidnapped my father and wants ten grand in ransom from me-next week. But I can't keep my hands off him. Joey Lupo is a criminal too-and just because he's helping me get the money doesn't mean I should forgive him for all the dirty tricks he played on me in the past. But I can't keep my mind off him. Me? I'm just a bootlegger with a weakness for whiskey, danger, and a man in a three-piece suit. But deciding whom to trust isn't easy in a world where everyone wants something-be it booze, money, power, or sex-and no one cares what it takes to get it. It continues with Speak Low... I thought I could leave danger behind. I couldn't. I thought I did the right thing, betraying one man for another. I didn't. I thought I knew what I wanted. I was wrong. Now I'm desperate to fix my mistakes before it's too late and I lose the one thing, the one person, that truly matters to me. |
