Clinical trials are often conducted as part of the development of new medications, procedures, or therapies. This is the end-stage testing to determine the safety and degree of effectiveness for new drugs or treatments before FDA approval. Clinical trials are conducted with approval from the Clinical Research Committee, the Hospital Board, and the University of Georgia Research Foundation. Your pet will be monitored closely during the trial and receive excellent clinical care.
The University of Georgia works with various other research institutions and sponsors in conducting clinical research trials. The outcome of this important research benefits the entire veterinary community as safer, more effective treatments are developed as a result of new technology and ultimately made available to area veterinarians for the treatment of pets.
Please check the list below to see if your pet qualifies for one of the trials listed. Further information can be found by following the link on the right side of the table. Please check back frequently for new clinical trials.

The Avett Brothers Details
Scott and Seth Avett are brothers who were raised in Concord, North Carolina and born with an innate love for music. Growing up on a small farm, the boys received piano lessons from a woman named Karen, guitar lessons from a man named Nelson, and banjo lessons from a man named Ned. They took their newfound skills and started recorded songs on cassette tapes at a young age. Eventually, as they got older, the brothers formed a band called "Nemo". From street performances to small gatherings, the Avett brothers knew that music was their true calling and they'd do anything to succeed in the business.
In 2001, after their band had broken up, Bob Crawford joined the Avetts and, together, they released their first full-length country album, "Country Was". From there, the band continued to grow – in both popularity and size. Their album, "A Carolina Jubilee", was released in 2003 and, just one year later, they came out with their third album, "Mignonette". Three years later, cellist and vocalist, Joe Kwon, joined the band as a permanent member. Mike Marsh and Tania Elizabeth are also touring members of the band.
Since their earlier days, the Avett Brothers have released a number of other successful albums, including "True Sadness", "The Carpenter", and "Emotionalism". The band's major label debut, "I And Love And You", was released in 2009 and peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard 200.
Their most popular video on YouTube remains, "Murder in the City", with over 3.5 million views. The brothers keep in touch with fans through their Instagram account (@theavettbrothers) and they often announce tour dates and other fun information via Twitter.
Traveling from state to state, these brothers always seem to be on the road, connecting with their fan base and playing music that speaks to their souls. The Avett Brothers have also appeared on a variety of popular shows, including "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" and "The Today Show".
HBO also released a documentary that took over two years to film and produce called, "May It Last: A Portrait of the Avett Brothers". The documentary gives fans an insider's look into the inspirational lives of the Avett Brothers.
The Avett Brothers' Concert
So, what's it like to see this crew in concerts and at festivals? It's quite the musical experience! The stage is filled with instruments ranging from the banjo and cello to the violin and drums. From their more funky songs like "Ain't No Man" to their sit-down strummers like "Make Me a Pallet on the Floor," each show is diverse, fun, and a country lover's dream.

In the not-too-distant future, most evangelical pastors will have to decide whether to support or reject the spirituality behind the emerging church. If this movement continues unfolding at the present pace, mainstream Christianity will be completely restructured, and the biblical gospel of Jesus Christ will be considered obsolete. If I believed for one minute that this movement was just another passing whim or the discontent rumblings that so often occur with young people as they search for answers to life, I would never have written this book.
But sad to say, the emerging church is far more than a fleeting fad and much more than the complaints of a group of young leaders. It is indeed a new way of being Christian and its objective is to usher in a new reformation throughout the world.
Those who refuse to embrace this direction will be considered spiritual oddballs that are hindering a unified one-world spirituality that is promoted as the answer for peace and that is prophesied about in the Bible. I know these sound like preposterous concerns. How could a movement that seems so unorganized and mismanaged do so much damage? The answer to that is the reason I wrote this book. For behind this new kind of worship, this new kind of church is a strategic apostasy and maneuver by the prince of this world, the enemy of our souls, to literally take apart the faith of millions—it will be nothing less than faith undone.

UK Millionaire Maker - How it Works
The UK Millionaire Maker gives UK players the chance to win a guaranteed £1 million prize in each standard EuroMillions draw.
This page provides an in-depth explanation of how the UK Millionaire Maker works. For a brief overview, please visit the main UK Millionaire Maker page.
Unlike the main EuroMillions game, which has set odds due to a set number of possible combinations, the odds for the UK Millionaire Maker game will vary between draws. The reason for this variation in odds is because Millionaire Maker works exactly like a traditional raffle, where the odds are calculated based on how many tickets have been entered into the draw.
This article covers the following sections:
How the codes are generated
How the winning code is selected
Why the UK Millionaire Maker odds vary for each draw
Frequently asked questions about the UK Millionaire Maker
Did you know? The UK Millionaire Maker is a separate game to European Millionaire Maker, which is played in all participating EuroMillions countries. Find out more below.
For every line of EuroMillions numbers sold in the UK, a unique serial code is generated in the format of the UK Millionaire Maker number. These consist of four letters and five numbers, starting with H, J, M, T, V, X and Z and are also entered into the European Millionaire Maker draw whenever that game is played.
Codes bought in advance of a particular draw will generally contain the same two middle letters (the second and third digits of the code). All codes generated for an upcoming draw are automatically entered into the system from which the winning Millionaire Maker numbers will be selected. Each individual code has a separate and equal chance of winning a prize, regardless of when, where or by whom it was purchased.
The two middle letters of the code will then change for the next draw. There is a common misconception that the letters drawn as part of the UK Millionaire Maker code in some way affect your chances of winning. This is not the case. Like a traditional raffle, the actual code sequence on the ticket is irrelevant and does not influence your chances of winning; it is simply used to distinguish your ticket from any other ticket purchased for the same draw.
UK Millionaire Maker numbers are only valid for one draw, except where a ticket has been purchased for multiple draws, with players able to buy entries for up to four consecutive weeks in advance. As the system recognises an entry for multiple draws, the UK Millionaire Maker code generated for those draws will be included in all of the draws covered by the ticket. However, Direct Debit players have a brand new UK Millionaire Maker code generated for each draw into which they are entered.
All UK Millionaire Maker codes that are valid for the next draw are entered into an Automated Draw Machine (ADM). Millionaire Maker codes purchased on multiple-draw tickets which are still valid will also be entered into the ADM. These machines have been used in the UK for many years, and 'ERNIE', the system used for selecting Premium Bond winners, is probably the best known example. An ADM ensures EuroMillions can operate a fast, reliable and completely random Millionaire Maker draw. The selected entry wins a guaranteed prize of £1 million.
The odds for winning UK Millionaire Maker vary based on the day of the draw and whether or not a rollover has occurred because the National Lottery sets their predicted odds of winning based on projected ticket sales. Friday draws and those boasting a big jackpot in the main EuroMillions game tend to attract more players than Tuesday draws and those at the base jackpot level of €17 million (around £14 million). When fewer people enter, your odds of winning are improved.
The table below provides a realistic approximation of the odds of winning the UK Millionaire Maker prize in a draw at the base jackpot of €17 million, with figures based on anticipated ticket sales:
Draw Day
Approximate Odds of Winning
Tuesday 1 in 3,570,000
Friday 1 in 5,080,000
Below is a list of frequently asked questions about UK Millionaire Maker:
What is the UK Millionaire Maker game? Why did the name change?
If I buy multi-draw EuroMillions tickets, can I still win the UK Millionaire Maker?
Usually the raffle sequence changes each draw, why does the latest code start with the same letter used in the previous draw?
Can I play the UK Millionaire Maker if I don't live in the UK?
The UK Millionaire Maker game gives UK players of EuroMillions the chance to win an additional prize of £1 million in every EuroMillions draw. The National Lottery Commission changed the name of the game from "Millionaire Raffle" to "UK Millionaire Maker" in October 2014 as part of larger changes to the structure of the game. This page provides an in-depth explanation of how the UK Millionaire Maker works, but for a brief overview, please visit the main UK Millionaire Maker page.
Yes. Players have the option to pre-purchase EuroMillions tickets up to four weeks in advance for one or both of the weekly draws which are held on Tuesday and Friday evenings. This means that players can pre-purchase tickets for up to eight draws in advance and the ticket will include one unique UK Millionaire Maker code for each line of EuroMillions numbers purchased. Although the code is the same for each draw, it is entered into every draw for which a EuroMillions ticket has been purchased and has exactly the same chance of winning as any other raffle code.
This is because a multiple-draw EuroMillions ticket was selected to win the guaranteed prize. For more information please read the explanation on this page.
Yes, it is possible to play the UK version of EuroMillions which includes the UK Millionaire Maker draw via our recommended lottery concierge service. Tickets are scanned as proof of purchase and any winnings are automatically paid into your account.

I want to hide the mask on a form only after the browser has filled in a couple auto-complete fields. In this case, the form will be shown when the page loads, although it would be good to have this functionality when I add a form to a panel after the user has done some action (edit preferences for example). I have been using the controller's onLaunch template method for the initial page load, however, this does not seem reliable. It looks like the browser (Chrome/Firefox) will sometimes apply the saved fields prior to the onLaunch function and sometimes they are applied after this function is called by the framework.
Can you check the value of the fields using a listener for afterrender?
I had previously tried using afterrender and that seems somewhat unreliable. From what I can tell, each browser behaves slightly differently but there is some sort of race condition where the afterrender code can be executed before the browser has filled the autocomplete values into the fields.
In my last set of testing, the code works perfectly if I user a setTimeout and call the function a short time (25 msec) after the afterrender function gets invoked. When I place that same function call in the afterrender call, it works about 15% to 20% of the time. My concern is that the 25 msec delay may work on my machine, but I cannot guarantee this to work on less powerful or heavily utilized client machines.

Watch the Grishaverse on Netflix in 2020 with Shadow and Bone, an original series!
Enter the Grishaverse with the instant #1 New York Times-bestseller King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo, the first book in the King of Scars Duology.
[Bardugo] touches on religion, class, family, love -- all organically, all effortlessly, all cloaked in the weight of a post-war reckoning with the cost (literal and figurative) of surviving the events that shape both people and nations. --NPR
The story exists at an intersection of past and future selves, and in the dawning understanding that what you most fear may be what you most need. --Washington Post
Face your demons...or feed them. The dashing young king, Nikolai Lantsov, has always had a gift for the impossible. No one knows what he endured in his country's bloody civil war--and he intends to keep it that way. Now, as enemies gather at his weakened borders, Nikolai must find a way to refill Ravka's coffers, forge new alliances, and stop a rising threat to the once-great Grisha Army.
Yet with every day a dark magic within him grows stronger, threatening to destroy all he has built. With the help of a young monk and a legendary Grisha general, Nikolai will journey to the places in Ravka where the deepest magic survives to vanquish the terrible legacy inside him. He will risk everything to save his country and himself. But some secrets aren't meant to stay buried--and some wounds aren't meant to heal.
Queen of Nothing
A powerful curse forces the exiled Queen of Faerie to choose between ambition and humanity in this highly anticipated and jaw-dropping finale to The Folk of the Air trilogy from a #1 New York Times bestselling author.
He will be the destruction of the crown and the ruination of the throne
Power is much easier to acquire than it is to hold onto. Jude learned this lesson when she released her control over the wicked king, Cardan, in exchange for immeasurable power.
Now as the exiled mortal Queen of Faerie, Jude is powerless and left reeling from Cardan's betrayal. She bides her time determined to reclaim everything he took from her. Opportunity arrives in the form of her twin sister, Taryn, whose life is in peril.
Jude must risk venturing back into the treacherous Faerie Court, and confront her lingering feelings for Cardan, if she wishes to save her sister. But Elfhame is not as she left it. War is brewing. As Jude slips deep within enemy lines she becomes ensnared in the conflict's bloody politics.
And, when a dormant yet powerful curse is unleashed, panic spreads throughout the land, forcing her to choose between her ambition and her humanity . . .
Wicked King
The enchanting and bloodthirsty sequel to the New York Times bestselling novel The Cruel Prince -- now in paperback!
You must be strong enough to strike and strike and strike again without tiring.
The first lesson is to make yourself strong.
After the jaw-dropping revelation that Oak is the heir to Faerie, Jude must keep her younger brother safe. To do so, she has bound the wicked king, Cardan, to her, and made herself the power behind the throne. Navigating the constantly shifting political alliances of Faerie would be difficult enough if Cardan were easy to control. But he does everything in his power to humiliate and undermine her even as his fascination with her remains undiminished.
When it becomes all too clear that someone close to Jude means to betray her, threatening her own life and the lives of everyone she loves, Jude must uncover the traitor and fight her own complicated feelings for Cardan to maintain control as a mortal in a Faerie world.
Two Dark Reigns
Blake, Kendare
#1 New York Times bestselling author Kendare Blake returns with the highly anticipated third book in the Three Dark Crowns series! And while Arsinoe, Mirabella, and Katharine all have their own scores to settle, there is another queen stirring things up on Fennbirn Island.
Queen Katharine has waited her entire life to wear the crown. But now that she finally has it, the murmurs of dissent grow louder by the day. There's also the alarming issue of whether her sisters are actually dead--or if they're waiting in the wings to usurp the throne.
Mirabella and Arsinoe are alive, but in hiding on the mainland and dealing with a nightmare of their own: being visited repeatedly by a specter they think might be the fabled Blue Queen. Though she says nothing, her rotting, bony finger pointing out to sea is clear enough: return to Fennbirn.
Jules, too, is in a strange place--in disguise. And her only confidants, a war-gifted girl named Emilia and her oracle friend Mathilde, are urging her to take on a role she can't imagine filling: a legion-cursed queen who will lead a rebel army to Katharine's doorstep.
This is an uprising that the mysterious Blue Queen may have more to do with than anyone could have guessed--or expected.
Don't miss Five Dark Fates, the thrilling conclusion to the series!

Unbirthday
Braswell, Liz
What if Wonderland was in peril and Alice was very, very late?Alice is different than other eighteen-year-old ladies in Kexford, which is perfectly fine with her. She'd rather spend golden afternoons with her trusty camera or in her aunt Vivian's lively salon, ignoring her sister's wishes that she stop all that "nonsense" and become a "respectable" member of society. Alice is happy to meander to Miss. Yao's teashop or to visit the children playing in the Square. She's also interested in learning more about the young lawyer she met there, but just because she's curious, of course, not because he was sweet and charming.But when Alice develops photographs she has recently taken about town, familiar faces of old suddenly appear in the place of her actual subjects-the Queen of Hearts, the Mad Hatter, the Caterpillar. There's something eerily off about them, even for Wonderland creatures. And as Alice develops a self-portrait, she finds the most disturbing image of all-a badly-injured dark-haired girl asking for Alice's help. Mary Ann.Returning to the place of nonsense from her childhood, Alice finds herself on a mission to stop the Queen of Hearts' tyrannical rule and to find her place in both worlds. But will she able to do so . . . before the End of Time?Read the entire Twisted Tale series!

Conceal, Don't Feel
Heart in a Body in the World
Caletti, Deb
"This is one for the ages." --Gayle Forman, author of the #1 bestseller If I Stay
"A book everyone should read right now." --The New York Times Book Review
"A vital and heartbreaking story that brings together the #MeToo movement, the effects of gun violence, and the struggle of building oneself up again after crisis." --Elle
"Equal parts heartbreaking and hopeful." --BookPage
Each step in Annabelle's 2,700-mile cross-country run brings her closer to facing a trauma from her past in National Book Award finalist Deb Caletti's novel about the heart, all the ways it breaks, and its journey to healing. Because sometimes against our will, against all odds, we go forward.
Annabelle's life wasn't perfect, but it was full--full of friends, family, love. And a boy...whose attention Annabelle found flattering and unsettling all at once.

The Larkin family isn't just lucky-they persevere. At least that's what Violet and her younger brother, Sam, were always told. When the Lyric sank off the coast of Maine, their great-great-great-grandmother didn't drown like the rest of the passengers. No, Fidelia swam to shore, fell in love, and founded Lyric, Maine, the town Violet and Sam returned to every summer.
But wrecks seem to run in the family: Tall, funny, musical Violet can't stop partying with the wrong people. And, one beautiful summer day, brilliant, sensitive Sam attempts to take his own life.
Shipped back to Lyric while Sam is in treatment, Violet is haunted by her family's missing piece-the lost shipwreck she and Sam dreamed of discovering when they were children. Desperate to make amends, Violet embarks on a wildly ambitious mission: locate the Lyric, lain hidden in a watery grave for over a century.
She finds a fellow wreck hunter in Liv Stone, an amateur local historian whose sparkling intelligence and guarded gray eyes make Violet ache in an exhilarating new way. Whether or not they find the Lyric, the journey Violet takes-and the bridges she builds along the way-may be the start of something like survival.
Epic, funny, and sweepingly romantic, The Last True Poets of the Sea is an astonishing debut about the strength it takes to swim up from a wreck.

From New York Times bestselling author of The Wicked Deep comes a haunting romance perfect for fans of Practical Magic, where dark fairy tales and enchanted folklore collide after a boy, believed to be missing, emerges from the magical woods--and falls in love with the witch determined to unravel his secrets.
Be careful of the dark, dark wood...
Especially the woods surrounding the town of Fir Haven. Some say these woods are magical. Haunted, even.
Rumored to be a witch, only Nora Walker knows the truth. She and the Walker women before her have always shared a special connection with the woods. And it's this special connection that leads Nora to Oliver Huntsman--the same boy who disappeared from the Camp for Wayward Boys weeks ago--and in the middle of the worst snowstorm in years. He should be dead, but here he is alive, and left in the woods with no memory of the time he'd been missing.
Nora can feel an uneasy shift in the woods at Oliver's presence. And it's not too long after that Nora realizes she has no choice but to unearth the truth behind how the boy she has come to care so deeply about survived his time in the forest, and what led him there in the first place. What Nora doesn't know, though, is that Oliver has secrets of his own--secrets he'll do anything to keep buried, because as it turns out, he wasn't the only one to have gone missing on that fateful night all those weeks ago.
For as long as there have been fairy tales, we have been warned to fear what lies within the dark, dark woods and in Winterwood, New York Times bestselling author Shea Ernshaw shows us why.

MADNESS, SECRETS, AND LIES
Wheeler, Arkansas, 1907
When their father descends into madness after the death of their mother, Verity Pruitt and her little sister Lilah find themselves on an orphan train to rural Arkansas.
In Wheeler, eleven-year-old Lilah is quickly adopted, but seventeen-year-old Verity is not. Desperate to stay close to her sister, Verity indentures herself as a farmhand.

Strange local superstitions abound, especially about the eerie old well at the center of the forest. The woods play tricks, unleashing heavy fog and bone-chilling cold...and sometimes visions of things that aren't there.
But for Verity, perhaps most unsettling of all is the revelation that her own parents have a scandalous history in this very town. And as she tries to unearth the past, sinister secrets come with it--secrets that someone will go to violent lengths to protect....

Germany, 1945. The soldiers who liberated the Gross-Rosen concentration camp said the war was over, but nothing feels over to eighteen-year-old Zofia Lederman. Her body has barely begun to heal, her mind feels broken. And her life is completely shattered: Three years ago, she and her younger brother, Abek, were the only members of their family to be sent to the right, away from the gas chambers of Auschwitz-Birkenau. Everyone else--her parents, her grandmother, radiant Aunt Maja--they went left.
Zofia's last words to her brother were a promise: Abek to Zofia, A to Z. When I find you again, we will fill our alphabet. Now her journey to fulfill that vow takes her through Poland and Germany, and into a displaced persons camp where everyone she meets is trying to piece together a future from a painful past: Miriam, desperately searching for the twin she was separated from after they survived medical experimentation. Breine, a former heiress, who now longs only for a simple wedding with her new fiancé. And Josef, who guards his past behind a wall of secrets, and is beautiful and strange and magnetic all at once.
But the deeper Zofia digs, the more impossible her search seems. How can she find one boy in a sea of the missing? In the rubble of a broken continent, Zofia must delve into a mystery whose answers could break her--or help her rebuild her world.

Who Will Run the Frog Hospital?
Touches and dazzles and entertains. An enchanting novel. --The New York Times
In this moving, poignant novel by the bestselling author of Birds of America we share a grown woman's bittersweet nostalgia for the wildness of her youth.
The summer Berie was fifteen, she and her best friend Sils had jobs at Storyland in upstate New York where Berie sold tickets to see the beautiful Sils portray Cinderella in a strapless evening gown. They spent their breaks smoking, joking, and gossiping. After work they followed their own reckless rules, teasing the fun out of small town life, sleeping in the family station wagon, and drinking borrowed liquor from old mayonnaise jars. But no matter how wild, they always managed to escape any real danger--until the adoring Berie sees that Sils really does need her help--and then everything changes.
From Julie Murphy, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dumplin', comes the first in a two-book origin story of Faith, a groundbreaking, plus-sized superhero from the Valiant Entertainment comics.
Faith Herbert is a pretty regular teen. When she's not hanging out with her two best friends, Matt and Ches, she's volunteering at the local animal shelter or obsessing over the long-running teen drama The Grove.
So far, her senior year has been spent trying to sort out her feelings for her maybe-crush Johnny and making plans to stay close to Grandma Lou after graduation. Of course, there's also that small matter of recently discovering she can fly....
When the fictional world of The Grove crashes into Faith's reality as the show relocates to her town, she can't believe it when TV heroine Dakota Ash takes a romantic interest in her.
But her fandom-fueled daydreams aren't enough to distract Faith from the fact that first animals, then people, have begun to vanish from the town. Only Faith seems able to connect the dots to a new designer drug infiltrating her high school.
But when her investigation puts the people she loves in danger, she will have to confront her hidden past and use her newfound gifts--risking everything to save her friends and beloved town.

"A can't miss debut from an exciting new talent." -Kiersten White, New York Times bestselling author of Slayer
The Age of Darkness approaches.
Five lives stand in its way.
Who will stop it . . . or unleash it?
For generations, the Seven Prophets guided humanity. Using their visions of the future, they ended wars and united nations--until the day, one hundred years ago, when the Prophets disappeared.
All they left behind was one final, secret prophecy, foretelling an Age of Darkness and the birth of a new Prophet who could be the world's salvation . . . or the cause of its destruction. With chaos on the horizon, five souls are set on a collision course:
A prince exiled from his kingdom.
A ruthless killer known as the Pale Hand.
A once-faithful leader torn between his duty and his heart.
A reckless gambler with the power to find anything or anyone.
And a dying girl on the verge of giving up.
One of them--or all of them--could break the world. Will they be savior or destroyer?
"Even in a world filled with graces and prophets, the real magic of There Will Come a Darkness is in how Pool has crafted her heroes--messy, flawed, and so beguilingly human. I dare you not to fall madly in love with all of them." --Laura Sebastian, New York Times bestselling author of Ash Princess
Book of Dust: The Secret Commonwealth (Book of Dust, Volume 2)
Return to the world of His Dark Materials--now an HBO original series starring Dafne Keen, Ruth Wilson, James McAvoy, and Lin-Manuel Miranda--in the second volume of Philip Pullman's new bestselling masterwork The Book of Dust.
The windows between the many worlds have been sealed and the momentous adventures of Lyra Silvertongue's youth are long behind her--or so she thought. Lyra is now a twenty-year-old undergraduate at St. Sophia's College and intrigue is swirling around her once more. Her daemon Pantalaimon is witness to a brutal murder, and the dying man entrusts them with secrets that carry echoes from their past.
The more Lyra is drawn into these mysteries, the less she is sure of. Even the events of her own past come into question when she learns of Malcolm Polstead's role in bringing her to Jordan College.
Now Lyra and Malcolm will travel far beyond the confines of Oxford, across Europe and into the Levant, searching for a city haunted by daemons, and a desert said to hold the truth of Dust. The dangers they face will challenge everything they thought they knew about the world, and about themselves.
Praise for The Book of Dust
"It's a stunning achievement, this universe Pullman has created and continues to build on." --The New York Times
"Pullman's writing is simple, unpretentious, beautiful, true. The conclusion to The Book of Dust can't come soon enough."--The Washington Post
Orpheus Girl
Rebele-Henry, Brynne
In her debut novel, award-winning poet Brynne Rebele-Henry re-imagines the Orpheus myth as a love story between two teenage girls who are sent to conversion therapy after being caught together in an intimate moment.
Abandoned by a single mother she never knew, 16-year-old Raya--obsessed with ancient myths--lives with her grandmother in a small conservative Texas town. For years Raya has fought to hide her feelings for her best friend and true love, Sarah. When the two are outed, they are sent to Friendly Saviors: a re-education camp meant to "fix" them and make them heterosexual. Upon arrival, Raya vows to assume the role of Orpheus, to return to the world of the living with her love--and after she, Sarah, and the other teen residents are subjected to abusive and brutal "treatments" by the staff, Raya only becomes more determined to escape.
In a haunting voice reminiscent of Sylvia Plath and the contemporary lyricism of David Levithan, Brynne Rebele-Henry weaves a powerful inversion of the Orpheus myth informed by the disturbing real-world truths of conversion therapy. Orpheus Girl is a story of dysfunctional families, trauma, first love, heartbreak, and ultimately, the fierce adolescent resilience that has the power to triumph over darkness and ignorance.
CW: There are scenes in this book that depict self-harm, homophobia, transphobia, and violence against LGBTQ characters.
#1 New York Times best seller!
Booklist Editors' Choice 2015 - Youth!
Named a Best Book of 2015 by Time Magazine, School Library Journal, Barnes & Noble, NPR, PopSugar, The Millions, and The News & Observer!
Simon Snow is the worst Chosen One who's ever been chosen.
That's what his roommate, Baz, says. And Baz might be evil and a vampire and a complete git, but he's probably right.
Half the time, Simon can't even make his wand work, and the other half, he starts something on fire. His mentor's avoiding him, his girlfriend broke up with him, and there's a magic-eating monster running around, wearing Simon's face. Baz would be having a field day with all this, if he were here--it's their last year at the Watford School of Magicks, and Simon's infuriating nemesis didn't even bother to show up.
Carry On is a ghost story, a love story and a mystery. It has just as much kissing and talking as you'd expect from a Rainbow Rowell story - but far, far more monsters.
Katia says: It's like Harry Potter...but better!
THE HOTLY ANTICIPATED SEQUEL
TO THE NO. 1 BESTSELLER CARRY ON
Simon Snow is back and he's coming to America!
What he needs, according to his best friend, is a change of scenery. He just needs to see himself in a new light.
That's how Simon and Penny and Baz end up in a vintage convertible, tearing across the American West. They find trouble, of course. (Dragons, vampires, skunk-headed things with shotguns.) And they get lost. They get so lost, they start to wonder whether they ever knew where they were headed in the first place.
With Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell has written a book for everyone who ever wondered what happened to the Chosen One after he saved the day. And a book for everyone who was ever more curious about the second kiss than the first. It's another helping of sour cherry scones with an absolutely decadent amount of butter.
28 Days: A Novel of Resistance in the Warsaw Ghetto
Inspired by true events, David Safier's 28 Days: A Novel of Resistance in the Warsaw Ghetto is a harrowing historical YA that chronicles the brutality of the Holocaust.
Warsaw, 1942. Sixteen-year old Mira smuggles food into the Ghetto to keep herself and her family alive. When she discovers that the entire Ghetto is to be liquidated--killed or resettled to concentration camps--she desperately tries to find a way to save her family.
She meets a group of young people who are planning the unthinkable: an uprising against the occupying forces. Mira joins the resistance fighters who, with minimal supplies and weapons, end up holding out for twenty-eight days, longer than anyone had thought possible.
"Powerful, wrenching." -JOHN GREEN, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Turtles All the Way Down
"Raw and gripping." -JASON REYNOLDS, New York Times bestselling coauthor of All American Boys
"A must-read!" -ANGIE THOMAS, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Hate U Give
Raw, captivating, and undeniably real, Nic Stone joins industry giants Jason Reynolds and Walter Dean Myers as she boldly tackles American race relations in this stunning #1 New York Times bestselling debut, a William C. Morris Award Finalist.
Justyce McAllister is a good kid, an honor student, and always there to help a friend--but none of that matters to the police officer who just put him in handcuffs. Despite leaving his rough neighborhood behind, he can't escape the scorn of his former peers or the ridicule of his new classmates.
Justyce looks to the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for answers. But do they hold up anymore? He starts a journal to Dr. King to find out.
Then comes the day Justyce goes driving with his best friend, Manny, windows rolled down, music turned up--way up, sparking the fury of a white off-duty cop beside them. Words fly. Shots are fired. Justyce and Manny are caught in the crosshairs. In the media fallout, it's Justyce who is under attack.
"Vivid and powerful." -Booklist, Starred Review
"A visceral portrait of a young man reckoning with the ugly, persistent violence of social injustice." -Publishers Weekly

Kosovo's IPKO goes Team Red on Pokemon Go
Pokemon Go has taken the world by storm. The Augmented Reality mobile game developed by Niantic, Inc and published by the Pokemon Company, has gained tremendous popularity all over the world.
1 Comment on Kosovo's IPKO goes Team Red on Pokemon Go
Pokemon Go has become a massive global phenomenon. Gamers have descended on parks, houses and street corners in search of the virtual creatures generated by the augmented-reality hit. The number of daily active users is record-high and it has surpassed even popular apps like WhatsApp, Instagram, and Tinder. The number of downloads so far is beyond 10 million and is constantly growing.
Like everywhere else in the world, Pokemon Go communities are on the rise in Kosovo and elsewhere in the Balkans. There are Facebook Groups and other forms of meet-ups that gather people interested in the world phenomenon.
Pleurat Pula, a Prishtina local who moderates a handful of interest-based social networking groups, is quoted by Pleurat Pula, a Prishtina local who moderates a handful of interest-based social networking groups, is quoted by Prishtina Insight: "We started off with five players in the first few days, now we have gathered almost 250 (by Friday the number jumped to 370).
We often arrange meetings in different parts of the city where we also stumble upon other players who pass by, we socialize, laugh and generally have a great time discussing matters related to the game. It is a true revolution for us who have grown up playing the console games."

Kosovo Telecom Provider IPKO goes Team Red

Q: Mariadb Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near Hey I am using the following mariadb code to create a table called user with some foreign keys
ALTER TABLE `user`
  ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS `shipping_address` int(11) NULL,
  ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS `billing_address` int(11) NULL,
  ADD CONSTRAINT IF NOT EXISTS `user_ibfk_2` FOREIGN KEY (`shipping_address`) REFERENCES `user_address` (`id`),
  ADD CONSTRAINT IF NOT EXISTS `user_ibfk_3` FOREIGN KEY (`billing_address`) REFERENCES `user_address` (`id`);

I think that this code is correct but still it generates the following error
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'FOREIGN KEY (`shipping_address`) REFERENCES `user_address` (`id`),
  ADD CON...' at line

Is this code actually correct? If not then how do I fix it? What would be the correct varient of this code? Any help is appreciated.
Edit: I am testing this code on phpmyadmin
Regards.

A: As mariadb (not mysql!) documentation on alter table shows, the if not exists clause comes after foreign key:
ADD [CONSTRAINT [symbol]]
    FOREIGN KEY [IF NOT EXISTS] [index_name] (index_col_name,...)
    reference_definition

So, your alter table should look something like
ALTER TABLE `user`
  ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS `shipping_address` int(11) NULL,
  ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS `billing_address` int(11) NULL,
  ADD CONSTRAINT `user_ibfk_2` FOREIGN KEY IF NOT EXISTS (`shipping_address`) REFERENCES `user_address` (`id`),
  ADD CONSTRAINT `user_ibfk_3` FOREIGN KEY IF NOT EXISTS (`billing_address`) REFERENCES `user_address` (`id`);
