THAWING A.C. NIELSENA new humorous 5-stars satire about the clash between cryonics science and the narcissists of reality TV, believe it or not, awaits you in the medical mystery "Thawing A.C. Nielsen" Pod after pod of frozen people, Two outrageous reality TV superstars, A slacker doctor in orange Crocs, An ancient, crazy millionaire actress, A guinea pig named Mr. T, Two randy Irish folk singers-How in the world will a talented young microbiologist who just wants to be 'normal' survive?It's Nerds versus Narcissists as Kate Pearson begins "THAWING A.C. NIELSEN" Brilliant young microbiologist and self-professed lab rat Kate Pearson has just landed her dream job, although she worries it might turn into a frozen nightmare. She's been hired to discover a way to successfully revive people who have been in cryonic deep-freeze stasis for years at the Chicago firm ExitStrategy, a company founded by scientist Mike "Cold Smokey" Burgess, holder of dozens of major patents.Kate is succeeding Dr. Enzo Saltieri, Mike's partner for years, who has died suddenly under strange circumstances. As Kate sifts through mountains of Saltieri's scribbled-upon legal pads she finds paths that lead nowhere. Was Saltieri on the verge of great discoveries or just sinking into the illogical world of dementia?Along the way, Kate has to deal with Miles Coleman, a sarcastic idiot savant assistant at the lab who's hiding his true identity; Gloria Dunham, a famous former Hollywood actress, now ninety years old and bent on taking over control of the company; plus reality show egomaniacs Dimi Konstantos and Khail Santana, megastars who've been polluting television's airwaves. After Kate has some success reviving lab animals frozen in the 1980s such as Mr. T, the guinea pig, and John Cougar, the housecat, her attention turns to the first human subject, famous TV ratings guru A.C. Nielsen, who has been frozen at ExitStrategy for twenty-five years. Between Mike Burgess's lofty expectations, hidden research files, secret medical procedures, switched identities, drugged drinks, randy Irish folk musicians, beefy bodyguards, plus Miles, Gloria, Dimi and Khail-Kate begins to realize that reviving A.C. Nielsen and accidentally discovering a cure for cancer may actually be a stroll in the park "More twists than a bag of my gourmet Bavarian pretzels "-Hans Sachs, M nchen Pretzel Werks"A guinea pig named Mr. T, a cat named John Cougar? The 80s rock again "-some person who lived in the 80s"The characters are poorly developed, the plot unbelievable;but you'll love the punctuation "-Sarah Gooseflesh, Schenectady Public Library"A total waste of your time Enjoy "-Ziggy Zneuzel, President, Procrastinators' International"As a top literary agent, I usually love cross-genre books. That is, until I read 'Thawing A.C. Nielsen'. Sci-fi, comedy, satire, medical Mystery plus guinea pigs? I think not "-Natasha Fatale"Please read my son's book. I think it's pretty creative. I'm just sorry he wrote those racy parts."-Paul's mom

390 A.C. BRENNO. Guai ai vinti

390 a.C.: il primo saccheggio di Roma, uno degli eventi pi scioccanti della sua storia, tanto che da allora i Galli, nella loro lingua Celti, diventarono un incubo per i romani, dal quale si liberarono solo trecento cinquant'anni dopo, in seguito alla conquista della Gallia da parte di Giulio Cesare. Tre o quattro protagonisti di quel periodo sono epici: Furio Camillo, uno dei pi grandi condottieri dell'antica Roma, pluridittatore, plurivittorioso; Brenno, arrogante capo dei Galli Senoni; Caio Fabio Dorsuone, un giovane romano che per adempiere un obbligo religioso, attraversa due volte le linee nemiche, andata e ritorno; Marco Manlio Capitolino, l'ex Console che scaraventa gi dal colle i Galli assalitori. Memorabili, anche, altri episodi: la conquista di Veio, secolare rivale; la disastrosa sconfitta dell'esercito capitolino nella battaglia sul fiume Allia; la distruzione di Roma; le oche del Campidoglio. E, poi, un paio di frasi diventate patrimonio dell'umanit "Vae victis" (Guai ai vinti) e "Non auro, sed ferro, recuperanda est patria" (Non con l'oro, ma con il ferro, si riscatta la patria). Buona lettura.

R.A.C.E. Mentoring and P-12 Educators

Seldom is the practicing P-12 educator, the P-12 practitioner, considered a scholar. R.A.C.E. Mentoring and P-12 Educators: Practitioners Contributing to Scholarship explores the unrecognized and infrequently considered teacher scholar, principal scholar, counselor scholar, librarian scholar - the practitioner scholar who if provided the platform and access can produce a unique and complex narrative and knowledge base to fields of study. This volume extends the current Research, Advocacy, Collaboration, and Empowerment (R.A.C.E.) knowledge in educational leadership, theory and practice, curriculum and instruction, teaching and teacher development, social justice, and diversity, equity and inclusion. R.A.C.E. Mentoring and P-12 Educators: Practitioners Contributing to Scholarship presents ways to conceptualize quality in educational research by engaging practitioners, researchers and policy makers in cross-disciplinary partnerships to provide an intentional platform for scholars and researchers in the P-12 school systems and pre-service programs, particularly those with/or seeking an active and emerging research and publishing agenda.This volume is divided into four interrelated sections. Section I focuses on mentoring practitioners as scholars during pre-service and in practice. Chapters in this section promote the use of methods coursework, narrative analysis and culturally relevant pedagogy to enhance practitioner agency and roles as scholars. Section II includes Culturally Responsive School Leadership (CRSL) as a way to recognize and address the historical examples and barriers to practitioner social justice activism. These chapters center the school setting and graduate coursework, using practitioner scholarship as a way to cultivate critical consciousness and the use of counter-narratives to combat racism, settler colonialism, and classism among school staff. Section III engages practitioner scholarship as a revolutionary approach through case study, auto-ethnography, review of literature, mental models, and phenomenological study. This section fosters the value of practitioner voice as agency to disrupt oppressive ideologies and beliefs that sustain inequitable and unequal school environments. Section IV provides curriculum, instruction, and parent involvement as examples of practitioner advocacy via personal and collective identity development, Black/Crit, Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) and engagement strategies. These final chapters provide details of policy and practice transformation methods that empower practitioner sustainability of student and parent access to equitable and inclusive school experiences.

The Ivory Tower is and can often be a lonely place for faculty of color. Social injustices run deep and are entrenched within academia. Faculty of color (FOC), more specifically Black and Hispanic, often lament about the ‘Black/Brown’ tax that frequently takes its toll both personally and professionally, and pushes them out of the academy. Similar to trends in P-12 settings, educators of color in postsecondary contexts represent less than 10% of the profession. In essence, we are an anomaly and the implications of this are clear and dire, as evidenced by persistent achievement, access, and expectation gaps within the academy.Scholars of color (SOC), at all stages, but particularly during doctoral training, frequently struggle to not just survive, but to thrive, in the academy. Too many fail to earn their doctoral degree, with many wearing the All But Dissertation (ABD) as a badge of honor. Although ABD is not a degree, many scholars of color receive inadequate mentoring, often substandard in comparison to the hand-holding White students receive, which leaves far too many doctoral students of color lost, bewildered, angry, indignant, and defeated. This righteous indignation is justified, but excused away using the myth of meritocracy and colorblind notions of success; followed by a myriad of problems steeped with victim blaming, as noted in the classic Presumed Incompetent: The Intersections of Race and Class for Women in Academia (Gutiérrez y Muhs, Niemann, González, & Harris, 2012). The aforementioned work was not the first treatise on higher education and how the non-status quo, along with those grappling with oppression and double standards, experience the profession called higher education. Moreover, The Chilly Climate (Sandler, Silverberg, & Hall, 1996) report, which focused on females, was also telling, but not enough was addressed and disclosed about females of color, until version two. But these issues do not stop with females of color, but instead, extend to all faculty of color.R.A.C.E. Mentoring, a social media Facebook group, with several subgroups (see Figures 1 and 2) was created by Donna Y. Ford, Michelle Trotman Scott, and Malik S. Henfield in 2013, to tackle the numerous thorny and contentious issues and challenges in higher education. We began by intentionally attending to the needs of students enrolled at mostly White universities, as well as those who attended historically Black colleges and universities, while keeping the unique nuances and challenges of each setting in mind. We wanted scholars of color to thrive in both. Fondly and affectionately called RM, our charge and challenge is to affirm the dignity and worth of scholars of color. Additionally, we recognize that there are scholars outside of academe, and their contributions as well to impact and affect change for Black and Brown people inside and outside of academe need to be acknowledged. These scholars are community organizers, activists, P-12 teachers, and families. It truly takes a village...
