Hey, hey, kiddos, and welcome to the most deliriously insane circus-carnival roadshow you've ever laid eyes on Well, maybe not so much a roadshow as a several-hundred-page book, but what a book It's got thrills, chills, spills (as in blood), mills (I'm sure there's a windmill to be found in here somewhere), and plenty of other words that rhyme, too I am your undead host Uncle Aberrant coming to you straight from the underworld, and I'm honored to be your guide through these twelve twisted tales of zany cosmic horror, which is possibly not an established genre but let's just pretend it is, k? Truth is, I've always been half-risk taker, half-innovator, and half-down and dirty scoundrel, so this is totally my vibe. Just ask about one of my sordid Andy Warhol stories sometime....IF YOU DARE (scared, yet?) So what exactly is Zany Cosmic Horror(TM)? Well, it's just like it sounds. Take one part HP Lovecraft and another part Jim Carrey (or other relevant funnyman if you're reading this in the future), then sprinkle liberally with oodles of bat-guano crazy ideas that probably aren't suitable for publishing. (uhhhhhh...don't tell my publisher, yeah? I really need this deal to go through. The Underground Mafia (and I mean WAY underground) is days away from breaking my thumbs. Which are in bad shape as it is, being undead and all.) I know, I know, you're like, "Unkie Abs, baby, what's the haps daddy-o, just give it to me straight." And to this, I say, "just jive, baby, just jive " Which is another way of telling you not to overthink this. These are fun, scary, crazy, zany, creative, larger-than-life stories, well-written and designed to bring you an insanely good time-emphasis on insane. From sentient space potatoes to galaxy-consuming fluffballs, no idea is too out-there for this collection. So crack open the book and join the madness, everyone, with Uncle Aberrant's Compendium of Cosmic Delights

The Culinary Plagiarist

The Culinary Plagiarist

Jason Peters

Front Porch Republic Books
2020
pokkari
More than a collection of vignettes and stories from garden, grill, and kitchen, The Culinary Plagiarist is a sustained adventure in gustatory delight, an intensely private but candid account of desire and all its objects. Opinionated on the full range of human experience, from fasting to inebriety, from sports to politics, from religion to raunch, it is at once serious, humorous, ironic, reflective, grateful, allusive, and appetitive. Along the way it offers a defense of small-scale, local life, of family, of place, and of ""the bread we do not live alone by."" And also the drinks. Don't forget the drinks. This is a book for people who enjoy being alive, whether in the kitchen, the pasture, the library, the barn, the trout stream, the henhouse (or the doghouse), or the bedroom.

Prune City

Prune City

Julia Quiring Emblen; Marianna Peters Quiring; Jason Matthew Quiring

Litfire Publishing, LLC
2018
pokkari
Marianna Peters, the daughter of German-speaking parents, takes us back to quieter times when a family's life and industry was centered in the family farm. As you read Growing Up in Prune City, you will walk through that delightful time at the turn of the century when the "stuff" of life for many families consisted of hard work, making clothes, cooking, baking, and canning, along with social breaks for church and school. In 1917, the Peters and other farmers planted many acres of prune trees around Dallas, Oregon. The town became known as "Prune City." Prunes were shipped from Dallas throughout the United States, to other countries, and to troops deployed in Europe. You will enjoy getting to know Marianna, the youngest of four siblings, as she goes to the small country church where she learned, and then embraced, her family's religious values and practices. You will sit beside her in a country school as she learns. You'll smile with her at cherry and prune-picking antics and activities. You will watch her play with other young friends as they wait for the daily mail delivery. You'll hear her gasp, a few years later, when her name is called as valedictorian for Dallas High School's graduating class of 1934. Then after a few years in college, your heart will be warmed as you see her falling in love and becoming Mrs. Elvin Quiring.

HOPE Teacher Rating Scale

HOPE Teacher Rating Scale

TAYLOR FRANCIS INC
2015
nidottu
The HOPE Teacher Rating Scale is designed to help guide teachers in identifying gifted students for programming. It is unique in several ways. First, it is short, with only 11 items that measure academic and social/affective components of giftedness, making it easy to use. Second, it is invariant when used to identify students from low-income and culturally diverse families. Third, it can be used across grade levels, K-12. Finally, local norms ensure that the data are relevant to the specific school populations. With multiple measures and multiple pathways crucial for reversing the inequities in identifying culturally, economically, and linguistically diverse students, a teacher-nomination instrument like the HOPE Teacher Rating Scale is an important component of identification systems. The HOPE Teacher Rating Scale items have been well-developed and subjected to research using more than 12,000 diverse students in five validity studies to date. This manual is useful in understanding and interpreting the electronic scores generated from teachers' ratings of their students. This instrument is a must-have for any administrator or gifted-program coordinator involved in student identification.To explore the full collection of HOPE print and online resources, please visit: https://www.routledge.com/go/hope-teacher-rating-scales.

Hero of the Underground

Hero of the Underground

Jason Peter

Saint Martin's Griffin,U.S.
2009
nidottu
As captain of the college football national champion Nebraska Cornhuskers, Jason Peter was the master of all he surveyed, whipped to a frenzy by his own power and ambition. But just a few years later, his NFL career in ruins after devastating injuries, he found himself consumed by addictions: first painkillers, then crack, and finally heroin, ingested in quantities that would have killed most people. In "Hero of the Underground", Jason Peter tells his story with utter candor, an athlete's attitude and a junkie's single-minded obsessive clarity. Prowling the pre-dawn streets of Manhattan, strung out and fearing he has murdered his girlfriend...flying cross country in a chartered jet with two high-priced call girls and His and Theirs piles of coke and heroin...crawling inch by inch through shag carpet toward the door of a last-ditch Los Angeles hotel with the utter conviction that he is being surveyed through the peephole...these and other vivid scenes punctuate a life that is part Bukowski (without the exhausted world-weariness), part Burroughs (both William and Augusten), and part A Million Little Pieces (except it all really happened).

The Forgiveness to Come

The Forgiveness to Come

Peter Jason Banki

FORDHAM UNIVERSITY PRESS
2017
sidottu
This book is concerned with the aporias, or impasses, of forgiveness, especially in relation to the legacy of the crimes against humanity perpetrated by the Nazis and their collaborators during World War II. Banki argues that, while forgiveness of the Holocaust is and will remain impossible, we cannot rest upon that impossibility. Rather, the impossibility of forgiveness must be thought in another way. In an epoch of "worldwidization," we may not be able simply to escape the violence of scenes and rhetoric that repeatedly portray apology, reconciliation, and forgiveness as accomplishable acts. Accompanied by Jacques Derrida's thought of forgiveness of the unforgivable, and its elaboration in relation to crimes against humanity, the book undertakes close readings of literary, philosophical, and cinematic texts by Simon Wiesenthal, Jean Améry, Vladimir Jankélévitch, Robert Antelme and Eva Mozes Kor. These texts contend with the idea that the crimes of the Nazis are inexpiable, that they lie beyond any possible atonement or repair. Banki argues that the juridical concept of crimes against humanity calls for a thought of forgiveness—one that would not imply closure of the infinite wounds of the past. How could such a forgiveness be thought or dreamed? Banki shows that if today we cannot simply escape the "worldwidization" of forgiveness, then it is necessary to rethink what forgiveness is, the conditions under which it supposedly takes place, and especially its relation to justice.
