Junior year has come for the remaining students of Melbrook Hall, and it promises to be the most difficult one yet. With one of their own gone and another under serious investigation, none of the former Powereds knows how many days remain for them in the Hero Certification Program. The time they do have will be filled with more trials and classes, honing their skills as they work toward the increasingly difficult goal of becoming Heroes. Ample new challenges await them, and not all of them can be met on the safety of Lander's campus. Fallout from last year's final exam has stirred the interest of many parties, not all of them friendly. With enemies pressing in from all directions, it's going to take new alliances, dedication, and countless hours of training if they want to last another year.

Spend the weekend with an imaginative and mischievous young boy, whose inner super hero takes over to solve a few everyday mysteries around his home. Super Zack’s journey begins the first morning, like most children, with a good breakfast and a few chores. His mother is upset because her charm bracelet is missing and Zack is bound and determined to put a smile on her face. He utilizes his inquisitive instincts and puts the clues together to locate the missing treasure...his mom’s charm bracelet! The following day, a play-date in the afternoon leads to a new adventure when one of his game’s pieces mysteriously vanishes when he and his cousin are temporarily distracted. Mom is not happy as she had earlier warned Zack that he would not be able to play his game if he lost a game piece. Super Zack and his new hero-partner become the dynamic duo in the quest for the missing game piece. The heroes save the day by solving the final mystery!

More than two billion dollars. That’s how much money was spent in the 2012 presidential campaign—the most expensive campaign in history. Each party raised and spent more than one billion dollars as the traditional boundaries of campaign financing were ignored. Both parties could do so because they were playing in a game with new rules—rules that largely developed after the 2010 Supreme Court ruling known as Citizens United. That case removed many restrictions on donation limits, particularly for corporations and unions. The result was the development of a new set of political players called “Super PACs” that were allowed to enter the political arena and spend an unlimited amount of money on behalf of clients. This book looks at how Super PACs raised and spent money and influenced the 2012 election. It provides an insightful look at how both right- and left-leaning groups approached the election and impacted the political process.
