1000 tulosta hakusanalla M. Rowel
It was only a game, but suddenly it seemed real. Best friends Mandy and Mimi are bored with all their old games. What a perfect time to play the Haunted House Game After making paper spiders, mixing "bat blood," and dressing up in spooky costumes, M and M are ready to scare the neighbors. But are they ready for what's awaiting them in the dark? "A very easy chapter book with sprightly pictures and an enjoyable cast."--Childhood Education
Kicked out of college and harassed by his lawyer, Miles Faber abandons New York and embarks on a defiant pilgrimage across the Caribbean to find the shrine of Sib Legeru, an obscure poet and painter. But in the streets of Castita's capital, where a wild religious festival is in full swing, a series of bizarre encounters - including his own repulsive doppelgänger (the son of a circus bird-woman) - and disturbing family revelations await Miles, who soon finds himself a willing victim of dynastic destiny.A darkly surreal comedy of dazzling linguistic inventiveness, MF is an outrageous tale of blood, lust and the machinations of fate.
Best friends Mandy and Mimi can't wait to see the new "Mummy Wonders" exhibit at the museum. But when they sneak in for a preview, they get wrapped up in more than they bargained for. The museum director spots a mummified Mandy, and the chase is on Can M and M untangle themselves from their mummy mess?

Unusual instruments. Legendary virtuosos. From anthems to zydeco, the language of music and the music of language harmonize in one superb symphony. It's a funky fusion for songsters of all ages Includes endnotes.

This volume presents new texts of Cicero's dialogues on political philosophy, De Re Publica and De Legibus, together with corrected versions of the editor's previously published editions of Cato Maior de Senectute and Laelius de Amicitia. The texts are based on a full reconsideration of the manuscript evidence and are presented in a clear and readable form.
This book examines 52 apologetic allocutions produced during federal sentencing hearings. The practice of inviting defendants to make a statement in their own behalf is a long-standing one and it is understood as offering defendants the opportunity to impress a judge or jury with their remorse, which could be a factor in the sentence that is imposed. Defendants raised the topics of the offense, mitigation, future behaviour and the sentence in different ways and this book explores the pros and cons associated with the different strategies that they used. Because there is no way of ascertaining exactly how effective (or ineffective) an individual allocution is, case law, sociolinguistic and historical resources, and judges' final remarks are used to develop hypotheses about defendants' communicative goals as well as what might constitute an ideal defendant stance from a judge's point of view. The corpus is unique because, unlike official transcripts, the transcripts used for this study include paralinguistic features such as hesitations, wavering voice, and crying-while-talking. Among its highlights, the book proposes that although a ritualized apology formula (e.g., "I'm sorry " or "I apologize ") would appear to be a good fit for the context of allocution and even appears to be expected, the use of these formulas carries implications in this context that do not serve defendants' communicative goals. I argue that the application of Austin's (1962) performative-constative continuum reveals that offense-related utterances that fall closer to the constative end are more consistent with the discursive constraints on the speech event of allocution. Further, I propose that the ideologies associated with allocution, in particular the belief that allocution functions as a protection for defendants, obscures the ways in which the context constrains what defendants can say and how effectively they can say it.
Il narratore che riporta elementi di una vicenda, posta a cavallo della frontiera del credibile, comincia a viverla quando prossimo alla fine della sua lunga attivit lavorativa. Certezze ed ipotesi scientifiche incontrano campi che ne sono prive, credenze diversamente diffuse, fino ad avvicinarsi a frutti spesso dovuti alla sola grande fantasia di cui dispone il cervello umano. Parole d'ordine come "Potere all'immaginazione" proprie della cultura di base di grandi movimenti giovanili dell'et moderna, possono concorrere al superamento di forme di apparenza; che possono mascherare, in tutto od in parte, la sostanza di quanto circonda lo stesso individuo. Fino ad impedire alla ragione di prevalere sull'istinto; modificato, perch aggredito da malcelate ignoranze di pochi che, pure, riescono ad avere un seguito. Fino a riuscire nel vedere "diverso," avversare ci che dispone della stessa nostra sostanza.

Il patrimonio del genere umano, accumulatosi in migliaia di anni, in parte disponibile al giorno d'oggi grazie all'opera di alcuni "grandi" e di innumerevoli "persone comuni." Individui coscienti della unicit del genere, della "razza" presente sulla infinitamente minima porzione dell'esistente Universo alla quale ha assegnato il nome di Pianeta Terra. Le dimensioni di quanto ad esso esterno sfuggono alla percezione dell'uomo. Risulta difficile pensare ad un solo genere, una sola razza che abbia a disposizione qualcosa definibile come Infinito. L'idea, forse la semplice speranza, di incontrare altri organismi con caratteristiche confrontabili con quelle del nostro genere rappresenta un sogno per tanti umani: oggi come ieri. Lo sforzo di conservare la memoria dell'opera dell'uomo ha consentito di poter disporre di Biblioteche, Musei, Archivi, Parchi Archeologici e Naturali, alle presenti generazioni.
