The Baboon Tiki serves as a meeting place and sacred protection grounds for baboons. As the first gateway marker to the underworld, after nightfall spirit ancestors can be glimpsed floating over its head towards the Cave of Final Transport. This collection of tiki gods attempts to shed light on a lost and forgotten world. Some exist in plain view among the throng of civilization. Others are shrouded in mystery and deadly intentions, born witness by no more than the wildest of beasts for centuries. The power and energy in all of them is palpable and each has its own special characteristics and story to tell. It is with great hope that the many years of exploration, research and sadly, gruesome deaths, will not be in vain and the history of this dying world of the mystical will continue to be handed down to future generations.

The meat and dairy industries, especially those that sell live animals directly to consumers, are breeding grounds for deadly diseases and illnesses. Cows, chickens, pigs, birds, and others are crammed into small buildings and cells, bringing together thousands of animals in very tight spaces. If one animal is sick, the rest of the population is immediately at risk. Such disregard for these creatures' health and wellbeing is both abusive to animals and dangerous to humans. From dirty air and water to the overuse of antibiotics, the meat and dairy industries are perpetuating the spread of bacterial infections, especially antibiotic-resistant strains, viruses, and other zoonotic diseases. With the recent COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak, the world is starting to realize the dangers of animal agriculture, and it's about time. Fortunately, changing the way we treat animals can help avoid these pandemics in the future. Here are 5 deadly diseases linked to the meat and dairy industries: 1. COVID-19 (2019 Novel Coronavirus) While the jury is still out on which animal is ultimately responsible for COVID-19's jump to humans, scientists and other experts are confident the virus originated in bats and spread to humans through a Chinese wet market. At these wet markets, animals, both alive and dead, and people are put into close proximity, creating an ideal environment for viruses and other diseases to spread from host to host. Poorly-regulated, live-animal markets mixed with illegal wildlife trade, the Wildlife Conservation Society said in a statement, offer a unique opportunity for viruses to spillover from wildlife hosts into the human population. Fortunately, China and other Asian countries are starting to crack down on wildlife trading. Proposals to ban the dog and cat meat trade are being considered, China has outlawed eating wildlife, and Vietnam might permanently ban their wildlife meat trade. Hopefully, this pandemic shows the importance of animal welfare for both animals and humans. 2. H1N1 (Swine Flu) Before the recent COVID-19 outbreak, the last time the World Health Organization declared a pandemic was for the swine influenza. H1N1, which is the term given to the variant virus that eventually jumped from pigs to humans, was first discovered in April 2009. By April 2010, the CDC estimated that anywhere from 151,000 to 575,000 people died globally as a result of the H1N1 pandemic. Swine flu likely originated due to frequent contact between farm workers and pigs combined with unsanitary factory-farming conditions and a lack of concern for animal welfare. Unfortunately, once the genie is let out of the bottle, there isn't much we can do to put it back. To this day, H1N1 circulates as a seasonal flu virus. 3. H5N1 (Bird Flu) Also called avian influenza, bird flu can jump from chickens and other poultry livestock to humans. Though never as severe as swine flu, avian influenza A viruses H5, H7, and H9 have infected people, with the H5N1 and H7N9 strains being the most common. Since 2013, at least 1,500 people fell victim to H7N9 and over 600 died as a

African states have become testing grounds for Western conflict-resolution experiments, particularly power-sharing agreements, supposedly intended to end deadly conflict, secure peace, and build democracy in divided societies. This volume examines the legal and political efficacy of transitional political power-sharing between democratically constituted governments and the African warlords, rebels, or junta that seek to violently unseat them. What role does law indicate for itself to play in informing, shaping, and regulating peace agreements? This book addresses this question and others through the prism of three West African case studies: Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea-Bissau. It applies the Neo-Kadeshean Model of analysis and offers a framework for a 'Law on Power-sharing.' In a field dominated by political scientists, and drawing from ancient and contemporary international law, this book represents the first substantive legal critique of the law, practice, and politics of power sharing.
