A text for those curious about education as a context for creativity and collaboration, and for teachers who want to reconsider hierarchy in their classrooms, Jesse Ball’s Notes on My Dunce Cap includes advisory material regarding the creation of syllabi and the manner in which groups may evaluate the work of an individual without harm. Ball is renowned for the unique courses he teaches at the Art Institute of Chicago, which are compiled in this volume along with extended notes on pedagogy. His meditations consider pedagogy in terms that are at once usefully broad and insightfully profound: "When it is possible for any of us to simply go and sit somewhere in the grass, and when it is such a delightful thing to do, to go and sit in the grass, whether by oneself or with others, then it is important to remember that anytime we think about teaching, or indeed, about any other activity—that we do it instead of sitting somewhere in the grass. We are passing up on the joy of solitude, and all its virtues and pleasures. Therefore, it is crucial that what happens when we teach be of the same value as time spent alone. And that is true both for ourselves and for those we teach." Jesse Ball (born 1978) is the author of five novels, including The Curfew, Silence Once Begun and A Cure for Suicide, which was longlisted for the 2015 National Book Award, as well as several collections of poetry, including March Book. His work has appeared in numerous publications including The New Republic, The Paris Review, Oberon, Circumference and Guernica Magazine.

Have you ever wondered how you can strengthen your relationship with your partner? The Notes-Partners Relationship Log is a continuation of The Dos & Don't Of A Committed Relationship book. Notes-Partners Relationship Log was written to help in the process of achieving this precise goal using 11 common misunderstood topics "The reason for writing this book was to share personal information, experiences and solutions from those who are now working through committed relationships, along with research and conversations with others who also have been in committed relationships. When making the decision to enter into a commitment with another person, it should never be taken lightly or made hastily. It is too serious of an undertaking to be based solely on emotions. Most of us would not marry another person without giving it serious consideration; why would you think of making a similar type of commitment without giving it the same amount of common sense reflection?" Author12 Notes-Partners Relationship Log Sirron V. Kyles the author, created this platform to encourage readers to share their feelings and thoughts in a simple note form; always keeping in mind that you will have to approach this communication tool with an open mind and willingness to respond, trust and always respect each other, no matter what the other writes. *The Notes are only available in the book's paperback version. The Notes-Partners Relationship Log allows for partners to become more loving towards each other and in essence become a unit rather than just drift apart. The ultimate goal: thrive in a Committed Relationship.Samples of what you will find in Notes-Partners Relationship Logs Name: BobDate: MondayTime: LunchMood: HornyComments: I really miss seeing you in your sexy lingerie.

Foreword by Felice PicanoI was on book tour in Los Angeles and had just given a reading at the old Unicorn Bookstore in West Hollywood, when I noticed a handsome young man wearing white pants and a colorful Hawaiian shirt completely unbuttoned. Several people had grabbed my attention but I turned to him and said, "We'll talk in a minute. And by the way, don't button that shirt for the next ten years." Later we did talk and he told me he had a sheaf of poetry titled Notes From a Marriage he wanted to send me, and for my SeaHorse Press to publish. By then SeaHorse had put out two successful books of poetry, my own The Deformity Lover in 1977, and Dennis Cooper's Idols in 1979.A few months later, he sent me the poetry. I read it through and enjoyed it. But I don't think he was expecting my reply. I wrote, "I like this poetry very much. But I think you should wait a few months, add to it, and send it back to me." My reasoning was that he had written of an affair that - in the words of the old song - was "too hot / not to cool down." I was right. I received a full manuscript of the earlier poems, and the ones after the breakup. Then it was a perfect book.Gavin sent me a great photo of himself, and I found a beautiful black and white photo by the author John Preston to use on the cover, and I set it in a pastel green surround.There were several but not enough good reviews. But Notes From a Marriage sold and sold, year after year. I found it on the checkout shelves of many gay bookstores, near the cash register - especially around Christmas and Valentines Day. I think it totaled 7500 copies ( ) before SeaHorse Press ended and I moved west.

The logical mind dismisses anything beyond what can be seen or touched as a sensation of imagination, but yet--is it? To truly understand spirit and the connection to our soul, we need to embrace a sense of curiosity and give ourselves permission to live in a world that contains mysteries and energies we do not fully comprehend.Based on over 200 hours of channeled messages from a group of spirits who are deeply involved with evolution on Earth, this book takes you on a unique journey into understanding the brilliance and intelligence behind creation, and how each of us are a part of this grand design. They describe how solar systems and galaxies are created, offering simplistic explanations that defy modern theories of cosmology. You will also learn about the qualities of the second dimension, the realm of nature spirits and fairies, and how they manifest in our reality. These beautiful and often witty light beings share in depth how new souls are created and taught, as they develop from a nursey school environment into becoming spirit guides. They operate as healers and protectors, intimately involved with the workings of nature on this planet, and are the spirits closest to us humans.'Notes from the Second Dimension' is a much-awaited companion series to The Spiritual Design books, filled with advice on how to best align your life with your soul's purpose. These animated and unaltered dialogues are delivered in an irrepressibly joyful, wise, and loving way, leaving the reader in a sense of wonder - What if?This book contains unaltered transcprits of conversations with spiritual beings who are actively involved with elevating humanity and improving our understanding of life here and in the hereafter.540 pages.
One year going on two⎯the degradation of America under Trump. Many have poured scorn upon him. (Some⎯30% or so of the public as of this writing⎯actually like him.) But none have done so as authoritatively and with such biting satiric flair all day long since his nomination as Mikhail Iossel, who views US (and sometimes Russian) politics through the lens of his upbringing and opposition-steeped young adulthood in the totalitarian world of the Soviet Union.Iossel⎯whose Facebook page has long been a magnet for some 12,000 shocked citizens of the US and the world, and who thought he'd left rule by morons and thugs behind on arriving in his new country, the USA, in 1986⎯does not hold back. His unforgettable, piercing, utterly satisfying posts on Trump's America, Putin's Russia, and the disquieting ties between the two have brought many solace in these troubled times.Notes from Cyberground brings together a choice selection of the best of those posts, some of which have appeared at NewYorker.com. Each chapter covers a month in the period from the November 2016 election to spring 2018.
Inequality. Climate change. Healthcare. Gun violence. These are but a handful of the issues that defined Year One of the Donald Trump presidency. Now, as America contends with an extremist right wing Congress and careens towards one of the biggest, most consequential election cycles in U.S. history, author and researcher MILES HOWARD offers his editorial documentation of a dark, dangerous, yet galvanizing year for liberals, leftists, and all who are ready for a kinder and smarter America. This is the first book of a new annual series.
