By the time the sun shot its first orange rays over the horizon, she was driving the little red sports car out of town.
Instead of dirt, the floors were made of hardwood so rich that the layer of dust couldn't hide its beauty.
One was parked beside the building with its hood up, and an old mustang sat at the pump.
The leathery coils of its shiny body lay in a heap, stacked at least three tiers high.
It scampered to the edge of the limb and looked down at her, its bushy tail jerking up and down as it scolded her.
The deer paused only a second when it saw her, and then bounded across the clearing, its white tail held erect.
As she drew near, it turned and ran, its tail between its legs.
It was black with white speckles all over its back.
What was its use?
Plucking one from the bush, she rolled the berry in her hand, removing the powdery haze from its surface.
With a clatter and scrape, the rocking chair turned on its side and skid several feet across the porch.
She dashed around, pausing to gape at the storm as she closed each window securely against its fury.
She fell to her knees, still holding her ears, and a sob forced its way through her constricted throat.
At some point it had broken its bounds and now cascaded down her shoulders and back.
She sank to a bench and sipped on her coffee, letting its warmth invaded her body and relax her stiff muscles.
The sun was well past its zenith and headed toward the trees on the west side of the cabin.
The smile instantly faded and a wary expression took its place.
Denton hated the yellow sundress with its spaghetti straps, but it was one of her favorite dresses.
She splashed some of it on her face and its coolness took her breath.
From the corner of her eye she saw them approach, but the amber gaze held hers in its intoxicating grip.
The elevator door opened and he stepped inside, swallowed by its stainless steel walls.
A snicker worked its way around the verandah.
The one-room shack was neat, with pallets on one side, a fire at its center, a small area to prepare food and crates lining one wall that acted both as storage and seating.
From this point, Xander was able to see most of the city, including the white dome of the palace at its center that marked the home of one of the three Gods that ruled the immortal realm.
Its spells were hidden to him, until he placed it around his neck.
It swirled and eddied before finding its way to the gem.
The smoke funneled into the red ruby, disappearing into its depths.
The gem can be destroyed to release its magic, but by doing so, you lose all that remains of your mother and me.
Its glowing red eyes narrowed into slits then closed.
She set down a tray with an insulated, silver pot of coffee at its center.
A few minutes later, the cat meowed at his door, indicating its entertainment – Ingrid – was gone.
The animal wound its way through his legs until he picked it up.
Its eyes glowed back at her.
Jessi whirled to see the cat huddled over its bowl of food.
She lifted it gently then picked up its bowls.
Two were in the cozy living area with its worn furniture.
The computer finished its search.
She entered the dark, sensual bedroom once again and accepted the necklace with the rough, round red ruby at its center.
The ruby glowed faintly, as if there was a light at its center.
Xander's low voice, with its naturally husky edge, made her flush.
She crossed to the railing of the loft area overlooking the formal living room with its two-story hearth.
Its eyes were the same color red as Xander's.
They paused beside the ring in the center, where the two at its middle had stopped to stare at him.
Jessi went to the kitchen and got herself a mug then returned to the porch and sat down in the chair with its back to the blonde on the beach.
She didn't ask where they were going but took the subtle beast onto the highway and let it loose, weaving in and out of traffic to test its handling.
She watched Xander like a predator eyeing a newcomer on its turf.
Jessi's phone vibrated from its place on the stand beside the chair.
There are two people who can call forth its power.
A grumpy meow drew her gaze to Xander's cat, who rubbed its face against her leg.
Sofi smiled, blue-silver eyes going to the llama that stuck its face between the wooden planks of the fence.
Where Xander snatched the creature by its neck.
He lifted it over his shoulders and snapped its body over his knee then flung the man-like creature aside.
Her warm body was pressed against his, the faint glow of the crystal emanating from its place tangled in her hair.
Ashley's bead was lighter red in color, its surface glazed to give it a subtle reflecting quality.
Xander knocked Darian's foot off it and snatched its neck, before it was able to Travel.
I know when you lie, Xander said into its mind.
The Other's body seized up then went limp, its head lolling back, as it lost the ability to move.
Xander ransacked its mind, yanking out information about Jessi while channeling the magic to force the Other to relive the pain he'd caused throughout his lifetime.
Though the controversy went on, its most important result had already been achieved in the silencing of Convocation, for that body, though it had just "seemed to be settling down to its proper work in dealing with the real exigencies of the church" when the Hoadly dispute arose, did not meet again for the despatch of business for nearly a century and a half.
The two books mentioned remained unnoticed by the reading public, and Lotze first became known to a larger circle through a series of works which aimed at establishing in the study of the physical and mental phenomena of the human organism in its normal and diseased states the same general principles which had been adopted in the investigation of inorganic phenomena.
We have already mentioned the final conception in which Lotze's speculation culminates, that of a personal Deity, Himself the essence of all that merits existence for its own sake, who in the creation and government of a world has voluntarily chosen certain laws and forms through which His ends are to be realized.
But, in attempting to make this conception quite clear and thinkable, we are forced to represent the connexion of things as a universal substance, the essence of which we conceive as a system of laws which underlies everything and in its own self connects everything, but imperceptible, and known to us merely through the impressions it produces on us, which we call things.
In all its main features it is essentially a modern town, and few of its principal buildings are older than the 19th century.
A large proportion of the most prominent buildings are clustered round the spacious Schlossplatz, with its fine promenades.
The city also contains numerous excellent educational establishments, although the state university is not here but at Tubingen, and its conservatorium of music has long been renowned.
Its other manufactures include machinery, pianos and other musical instruments, cotton goods, cigars, furniture, leather, paper, colours and chemicals.
Its trade also in books, hops, horses, and cloth is considerable, and a large banking and exchange business is done here.
Cannstatt, which was incorporated with Stuttgart in 1903, attracts numerous visitors owing to its beautiful situation on the Neckar and its saline and chalybeate springs.
Its importance, however, is of comparatively modern growth and in the early history of Wurttemberg it was overshadowed by Cannstatt, the central situation of which on the Neckar seemed to mark it out as the natural capital of the country.
But even as capital its growth was slow.
At the beginning of the 19th century it did not contain 20,000 inhabitants, and its real advance began with the reigns of Kings Frederick and William I., who exerted themselves in every way to improve and beautify it.
Horace Walpole, who gives an unfavourable picture of his private character, acknowledges that Stone possessed "abilities seldom to be matched"; and he had the distinction of being mentioned by David Hume as one of the only two men of mark who had perceived merit in that author's History of England on its first appearance.
On his death-bed he is said to have requested a friend to hide his body as soon as life was extinct, and, by putting a serpent in its place, induce his townsmen to suppose that he had been carried up to heaven.
The tongue is remarkable for its great length, measuring about 17 in.
In this respect the Asiatic species differs very widely from its African relative, whose nutriment is largely composed of boughs and roots.
Unlike the African species, the Indian elephant charges with its trunk curled up, and consequently in silence.
The African elephant is a very different animal from its Asiatic cousin, both as regards structure and habits; and were it not for the existence of intermediate extinct species, might well be regarded as the representative of a distinct genus.
Among its characteristics the following points are noticeable.
It is hunted chiefly for the sake of the ivory of its immense tusks, of which it yields the principal source of supply to the European market, and the desire to obtain which is rapidly leading to the extermination of the species.
Nothing was stated as to the probability of an increase in the stature of the French Congo animal as it grows older; but even if we allow another foot, its height would be considerably less than half that of a large Central African bull of the ordinary elephant.
The most important of these are the greater tolerance by the African animal of sunlight, and the hard nature of its food, which consists chiefly of boughs and roots.
The latter are dug up with the tusks; the left one being generally employed in this service, and thus becoming much more worn than its fellow.
The Indian flying-squirrel (P. oral) leaps with its parachute extended from the higher branches of a tree, and descends first directly and then more and more obliquely, until the flight, gradually becoming slower, assumes a horizontal direction, and finally terminates in an ascent to the branch or trunk of the tree to which it was directed.
The rugged Spanish coast is indented by many fjord-like inlets, especially in the west, where navigation is sometimes difficult and dangerous; but its rivers are comparatively unimportant.
But among archaeologists the word is usually restricted in its technical modern application to a sepulchral mound of greater or less magnitude.
In a variety of ways it does a great deal of social service similar to that of gilds of help. Its administration has always been in the hands of laymen, and it works through local "conferences" or branches, the general council having been suspended because it declined to accept a cardinal as its official head.
The atomist would say, "Yes, it is broken up into its atoms, and these are distributed throughout the spaces between the particles of water."
The rival philosopher, who believes water to be continuous and without spaces between its particles, has a greater difficulty in accounting for the disappearance of the sugar; he would probably say that the sugar, and the water also, had ceased to exist, and that a new continuous substance had been formed from them, but he could offer no picture of how this change had taken place.
In fact, he did so much to make the atomic theory of matter probable that he is popularly regarded as its originator.
It is evident that if our experiments are solely directed to the verification of this law, they should, if possible; be carried out in a hermetically closed vessel, the vessel and its contents being weighed before and after the chemical change.
He belonged to a noble family of Scotch descent, tracing its origin to Walter Stutt, who in 1420 accompanied the earls of Buchan and Douglas to the court of France, and whose family afterwards rose to be counts of Tracy.
In 1808 he was elected a member of the French Academy in place of Cabanis, and in 1832 he was also named a member of the Academy of Moral Sciences on its reorganization.
He appeared, however, only once at its conferences, owing to his age and to disappointment at the comparative failure of his work.
It is formed by the junction of the Bafing or Black river and the Bakhoy or White river, and its chief affluent is the Faleme.
The first rise in the lower Senegal is due to the rains in the source region of the Faleme, the flood water passing down that stream more quickly than down the Bafing owing to its shorter course.
Leo Africanus rightly describes its lower course as "severing by its winding channel the barren and naked soil from the green and fruitful."
Owing to the historical past of Naples, and its social and economic condition at the end of the 17th century, the only study that really flourished there was that of law; and this soon penetrated from the courts to the university, and was raised to the level of a science.
By his exposition of the political history of the kingdom, based on a study of its laws and institutions and of the legal conflicts between the state and the court of Rome, Pietro Giannone was the initiator of what has been since known as civil history.
Giovan Vincenzo Gravina wrote a history of Roman law, specially distinguished for its accuracy and elegance.
In Rhabdopleura each zooid forms its own delicate tube composed of a characteristic series of distinct rings.
In correspondence with the fundamental constitution of the zooid, each of the three segments has its own body-cavity separated from the others.
A ventral vessel occurs on the anterior side of the metasome and forms a loop extending down the entire length of the stalk, while a " heart " projects into the cavity of the pericardium, probably connected on the ventral side of the notochord with the ventral vessel, and on its dorsal side with the dorsal vessel.
It is the chief health resort of the state, and its climate is one of the finest in Australia; it has a mean annual temperature of 58.6° F., and the summer heat is never excessive.
Its presence has also been detected in the sun and in meteoric iron.
Strangely enough, the government did not refuse its consent.
Though the family lost most of its possessions during the Mahratta invasion in the 14th century, it never became tributary to any Malwa chief.
Having devoted much time to the study of the Latin writers, historians, orators and poets, and filled his mind with stories of the glories and the power of ancient Rome, he turned his thoughts to the task of restoring his native city to its pristine greatness, his zeal for this work being quickened by the desire to avenge his brother, who had been killed by a noble, a member of the ruling class.
Returning to Rome about April 1344 he worked for three years at the great object of his life, the restoration of the city to its former position of power.
His government was costly, and to meet its many expenses he was obliged to lay heavy taxes upon the people.
The church of All Saints is mentioned in Domesday, and tradition ascribes the building of its nave to King John, while the western side of the tower must be older still.
The principal part of the city lies between these two streams, with its great plaza in the centre.
Its trade is not large, however, owing to the costs of transportation.
It was captured by Pizarro in 1533, and it is said that its size and the magnificence of its principal edifices filled the Spaniards with surprise.
It was for many years an object of contention among the Spanish factions, but ultimately the greater attractions of Lima and its own isolation diminished its importance.
He was a learned man and a patron of scholars, and during his reign the Northumbrian kingdom partially recovered its prosperity.
He was succeeded in 705 by his son Osred, and under him and his successors Northumbria began rapidly to decline through the vices of its kings and the extravagance of their donations.
Its bed is now broad, studded with islands and enclosed by high banks.
Its chief tributaries on this last portion of its course are the Alz and the Salzach, and at Passau, 309 m.
Its rapid current does not permit of extensive navigation, but timber rafts are floated down from above Innsbruck.
Its chief exports are of cotton, hemp, sugar and stone.
Golitsuin was a typical representative of Russian society of the end of the 17th century in its transition from barbarism to civilization.
On the 13th of April 1396 he obtained ratification of the parsonage of St Stephen's, Walbrook, presented on the 30th of March by the abbot of Colchester, no doubt through his brother Robert, who restored the church and increased its endowment.
His first college at Oxford, in perishing, gave birth to St John's College, which now holds its site.
A papal bull having also been obtained, on the 28th of August 1425, the archbishop, in the course of a visitation of Lincoln diocese, executed his letters patent founding the college, dedicating it to the Virgin, St Thomas Becket and St Edward the Confessor, and handed over the buildings to its members, the vicar of Higham Ferrers being made the first master or warden.
The foundation was closely modelled on Winchester College, with its warden and fellows, its grammar and song schoolmasters, but a step in advance was made by the masters being made fellows and so members of the governing body.
On the 18th of July 1542 it was surrendered to Henry VIII., and its possessions granted to Robert Dacres on condition of maintaining the grammar school and paying the master £10 a year, the same salary as the headmasters of Winchester and Eton, and maintaining the almshouse.
Both still exist, but the school has been deprived of its house, and the Fitzwilliam family, who now own the lands, still continue to pay only £10 a year.
Indeed, All Souls was more of a lay foundation than its model.
Delaware is the seat of the Ohio Wesleyan University (co-educational), founded by the Ohio Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1841, and opened as a college in 1844; it includes a college of liberal arts (1844), an academic department (1841), a school of music (1877), a school of fine arts (1877), a school of oratory (1894), a business school (1895), and a college of medicine (the Cleveland College of Physicians and Surgeons, at Cleveland, Ohio; founded as the Charity Hospital Medical College in 1863, and the medical department of the university of Wooster until 1896, when, under its present name, it became a part of Ohio Wesleyan University).
His long term of service in the House, his leadership of his party on its floor, his candidacy for the speakership, and his recent election to the United States Senate, marked him out as the available man.
After the peace of Antalcidas (387), to which he refused to agree, the Athenians withdrew their support, since by its terms they recognized the lordship of Persia over Cyprus.
As an outcome of this alchemical doctrine the process of fermentation was supposed to have a purifying and elevating effect on the bodies which had been submitted to its influence.
The yeast plant and its allies are saprophytes and form no chlorophyll.
