Emma is a teenager who loves to sing. She's funny, clever, a bit shy with boys and struggling to cope with the death of her dad and her mum's new boyfriend who she ought, by rights, to hate. Fascinated when she finds the diary of a girl who is strangely similar to her which was written over a hundred years ago, she finds herself following an eerily similar path towards stardom and tragedy but will the diary be enough to save her?

An educator, warrior and adventurer, Corim had a gentle heart and a thirst for the unknown. Little does he suspect, the unknown is about to find him and kick him in the teeth... Corim Vale has spent his life dreaming of visiting other worlds, of learning and bringing education to the masses. One thing stands between him and his lofty goals: The seventh circle challenge against Talorin Falor, the academy headmaster and arguably the strongest man on all of Titaan. Known as the "Fighting Sage", Corim is an explorer and knowledge seeker who uses tournament winnings to fund his research. Ready to push toward loftier ambitions, the warrior-academic seeks the patronage of the powerful academy and gets swept up in a decades old vendetta, a war between ancient races, and a plot to destroy time itself. What starts as a dare becomes a race to save the stability of Eternity when Corim's investigation uncovers the machinations of a team of evil conjurers bent on the destruction of the Chronal Protectorate--even at the cost of their lives and all sentience in the universe...

The book addresses the problem of a time-varying unconditional variance of return processes utilizing a spline function. The knots of the spline functions are estimated as free parameters within a joined estimation process together with the parameters of the mean, the conditional variance and the spline function. With the help of this method, the knots are placed in regions where the unconditional variance is not smooth. The results are tested within an extensive simulation study and an empirical study employing the S&P500 index.

Looking up, Jedidiah could no longer see any stars. Or sky for that matter. It seemed to be very dark all of a sudden! He stood up and bumped his head on something. It was soft. Some type of cloth? What would that be doing out here in the tree? One hand was still on the dark spot on the tree. He reached out with his other hand and found a door latch. A door latch? He pressed the thumb notch and a door opened. Daylight shone on him. He seemed to be in a tiny room, barely big enough for him to stand in. There was a horizontal pole with a bunch of short red jackets hanging on it.

This volume offers critical perspectives on memories of political and socioeconomic ‘transitions’ that took place between the 1970s and 1990s across the globe and that inaugurated the end of the Cold War. The essays respond to a wealth of recent works of literature, film, theatre, and other media in different languages that rethink the transformations of those decades in light of present-day crises. The authors scrutinize the enduring silences produced by established frameworks of memory and time and explore the mnemonic practices that challenge these frameworks by positing radical ambivalence or by articulating new perspectives and subjectivities. As a whole, the volume contributes to current debates and theory-making in critical memory studies by reflecting on how the changing recollection of transitions constitutes a response to the crisis of memory and time regimes, and how remembering these times as crises renders visible continuities between this past and the present. It is a valuable resource for academics, students, practitioners, and general readers interested in exploring the dynamics of memory in post-authoritarian societies.
