A cocktail book celebrating one of the most prominent symbols of our shared Canadian culinary identity--the Caesar--from the founders of Canada's first premiere Caesar company. Get ready to depart on a country-wide tour, from Victoria to Nunavut to Halifax--and a whole lot of Canada in between--to explore the history and culture of our national drink, the Caesar. In their debut book, Aaron Harowitz and Zack Silverman--co-founders of Walter Craft Caesar--share their favourite takes on this classic cocktail, drawing inspiration from the people they've met, places they've traveled, and cocktails they've sipped as they've grown their business. But more than just recipes from Aaron and Zack's personal repertoire, Caesar Country also features drinks from many of Canada's top bartenders, drawing on a host of techniques and local ingredients, showing countless ways to expand on this iconic Canadian cocktail with the help of stunning photography and unfussy, step-by-step guidelines. Throughout this beautifully designed book, you'll find Caesar-inspired dishes from some of Canada's most celebrated chefs, including Lora Kirk, Derek Dammann, Chuck Hughes, and Michael Smith--recipes that riff on classic Caesar flavours in everything from Mussels Escabeche to Shakshuka to the Clam Bake. More than a recipe collection, though, Caesar Country is a detailed deep dive into the cocktail's history and the art and science of making exceptional Caesars, covering everything from equipment to methodology to preparing Caesar bars for larger gatherings. In language straightforward enough for home bartenders and with enough cocktail wizardry to interest seasoned professionals, Caesar Country serves as a love letter to the land, communities, and innovators that make our food and drink culture so rich.

Joyce, Joyceans and the Rhetoric of Citation
Eloise Knowlton; Zack Bowen
University Press of Florida
1998
sidottu
James Joyce never used quotation marks, calling them ""perverted"" and ""unreal"". This book springs from that aversion, presenting an account of citation from the ancient world forward and tracing Joyce's transgressive relation to that history from ""Memorabilia"" to ""Finnegan's Wake"". The author argues Joyce's rejection of the mark signals a wider and deeper rejection of the system it implements, one in which the subject/object separation presents an orderly containment of language and readers. She locates the rhetoric of quotation at four places crucial to contemporary debates: authorship, feminism, historiography, and modern criticism.
Advertising and Commodity Culture in Joyce
Garry Leonard; Zack Bowen
University Press of Florida
1998
sidottu
The author of this text examines Joyce's representation of advertising. Taking readers back to its beginnings, he aims to show that advertising was a central preoccupation of Joyce, one that helps to unravel his often difficult style. Building on the work of cultural theorists like Lacan, Foucault, Baudrillard, Irigiray and others, Leonard examines commodity culture in Joyce's work and demonstrates the ways in which characters use (or are used by) modern advertising techniques to make their own identities more intelligible and to fill the Lacanian ""permanent lack"" of modern identity. The commonality of religion and advertising, the use of ""kitsch"" as a rhetorical device, the commodity market's exploitation of the proletariat, the role of pornography, the impact of advertising's ""normative"" modes of dress and behaviour, and the role of the modern city as a modernist trope are all explored as aspects of Joyce's work or as pressures faced by his characters. The author argues that ""culture"" in Joyce is the product of a complex response to psychological, sociological, political, economic and aesthetic pressures. In Joyce, advertising, as a product of that culture, serves both to reinforce the hegemonic discourse of the day and to subvert it.

Mental Health Disorders in Pregnancy and the Early Postpartum
Zena Schofield; Zack Schofield
Cambridge University Press
2025
pokkari
Mental health disorders are common in pregnancy and after childbirth with over 10% of women manifesting some form of mental illness during this time. Maternity services will encounter women with symptoms that vary in severity from mild self-limiting to potentially life-threatening. These conditions carry risks for both the woman and the fetus/newborn. Detecting women with, or at risk of, a serious mental health disorder and enabling them to access appropriate care in a timely fashion is a shared responsibility. However, given the frequency of contact they have with women through this period, maternity services have a pivotal role. From a mental health perspective, high-risk pregnancies are those primarily associated with serious mental illness (psychotic illnesses, bipolar disorder and severe depressive episodes). Healthcare professionals caring for pregnant women should have the appropriate skills to detect serious mental illness and identify women at risk and how to access specialist mental health care.

Tensions come to a boil as the city is threatened by upheaval from within and becomes alight with terror. Brock finds himself frustratingly unable to utilize his underground contacts...though the mysterious Lady Grey may not be finished with him yet.

Charles Edge, Zack Smith, and Beau Hunter provide detailed explanations of the technology required for large-scale Mac OS X deployments and show you how to integrate it with other operating systems and applications. Enterprise Mac Administrator's Guide addresses the growing size and spread of Mac OS X deployments in corporations and institutions worldwide. In some cases, this is due to the growth of traditional Mac environments, but for the most part it has to do with "switcher" campaigns, where Windows and/or Linux environments are migrating to Mac OS X. However, there is a steep culture shock with these types of migrations. The products that are used are different, the nomenclature is different, and most importantly the best practices for dealing with the operating system are different. Apple provides a number of tools to help automate and guide IT toward managing a large number of Mac OS X computers—it has since before Mac OS X was initially released. However, if you want to put together all of the pieces to tell a compelling story about how to run an IT department or a deployment of Macs, you need to compile information from a number of different sources. This book will provide explanations of the technology required. Provides complete solutions for the large- and medium-scale integration of directory services, imaging, and security Complete guide for integrating Macs and Mac OS X into mixed environments with confidence and no down time One-stop volume for IT professionals who need the technical details to get their job done as efficiently and effectively as possible
