Meet Oz . . . he's got a talent for trouble but his heart's always in the right place (well, nearly always). Uprooted from his friends and former life, Oz finds himself stranded in the sleepy village of Slowleigh. When a joke backfires on the first day at his new school, Oz attracts the attention of Isobel Skinner, the school psycho - but that's just the beginning. After causing an accident that puts his mum in hospital, Oz isn't exactly popular at home either. His older sister's nohelp, but then she's got a problem of her own . . . one that's growing bigger by the day. Oz knows he's got to put things right, but life isn't that simple, especially when the only people still talking to you are a hobbit-obsessed kid and a voice in your own head! Packed with action, heart and humour, Waiting for Gonzo takes you for a white-knuckle ride on the Wheel of Destiny as it careers out of control down the Hillside of Inevitability. The question is, do you go down laughing? Or grit your teeth and jump off?

The Navajo language is spoken by the Navajo people who live in the Navajo Nation, located in Arizona and New Mexico in the southwestern United States. The Navajo language belongs to the Southern, or Apachean, branch of the Athabaskan language family. Athabaskan languages are closely related by their shared morphological structure; these languages have a productive and extensive inflectional morphology. The Northern Athabaskan languages are primarily spoken by people indigenous to the sub-artic stretches of North America. Related Apachean languages are the Athabaskan languages of the Southwest: Chiricahua, Jicarilla, White Mountain and Mescalero Apache. While many other languages, like English, have benefited from decades of research on their sound and speech systems, instrumental analyses of indigenous languages are relatively rare. There is a great deal ofwork to do before a chapter on the acoustics of Navajo comparable to the standard acoustic description of English can be produced. The kind of detailed phonetic description required, for instance, to synthesize natural sounding speech, or to provide a background for clinical studies in a language is well beyond the scope of a single study, but it is necessary to begin this greater work with a fundamental description of the sounds and supra-segmental structure of the language. Inkeeping with this, the goal of this project is to provide a baseline description of the phonetic structure of Navajo, as it is spoken on the Navajo reservation today, to provide a foundation for further work on the language.

This book from Access Navajo (a majority Navajo-owned publisher) is intended to help create an environment in which you can have fun while improving your Navajo verb conjugation skills. One hundred and twenty-five verbs have been carefully selected for their usefulness in daily life and their relevance to Navajo culture. A full conjugation is given in up to seven modes for each verb, along with meanings and usage, conjugation patterns, a component breakdown, and more. To help increase the fun factor in learning to conjugate Navajo verbs, the book can be used in coordination with a software game available at no cost on the company's website (www.accessnavajo.com). The game can be played online in simplified form or downloaded for a more complete experience. A different subset of the verbs from the book is provided each month in the downloadable version. You can play just for fun, play for points and bonus points, play against the clock, play against an opponent, and strategize about how to achieve a maximum number of points in a given amount of time. The book, in conjunction with the software game and descriptive videos on the Access Navajo YouTube channel, can turn the complex internal patterns of Navajo verbs into a source of great enjoyment. The trickier the verb, the more fun it is to conjugate!
