Single and Seeking Marriage

Liberty Blair lives in Southern California and is about to write a novel when she learns her daughter, an only child, is missing. After filing a Missing Persons Report, she receives a call from a detective in a town just outside of Las Vegas, asking her to identify the body of a woman recently found in his jurisdiction. Detective John Hatchet has always been known for his backbone and determination. He's also known for having had more than his share of women. On the other hand, Liberty has a few problems of her own, like a bad case of misplaced emotions, sexuality, and lack of direction. This just might hinder Hatchet's resolve in unraveling the mystery. After all he's a detective, not a therapist.

ECOOP 2004 - Object-Oriented Programming

ECOOP is the premier forum in Europe for bringing together practitioners, - searchers, and students to share their ideas and experiences in a broad range of disciplines woven with the common thread of object technology. It is a collage of events, including outstanding invited speakers, carefully refereed technical - pers, practitioner reports re?ecting real-world experience, panels, topic-focused workshops, demonstrations, and an interactive posters session. The 18th ECOOP 2004 conference held during June 14–18, 2004 in Oslo, Norway represented another year of continued success in object-oriented p- gramming, both as a topic of academic study and as a vehicle for industrial software development. Object-oriented technology has come of age; it is now the commonly established method for most software projects. However, an - panding ?eld of applications and new technological challenges provide a strong demand for research in foundations, design and programming methods, as well as implementation techniques. There is also an increasing interest in the in- gration of object-orientation with other software development techniques. We anticipate therefore that object-oriented programming will be a fruitful subject of research for many years to come.
