Non-Stop Flight, set in the mountains of Northern Virginia, Dulles International Airport, Miami Florida and, of course, his favorite mom-and-pop diner, "Hoppy's Place," is the first in a planned series of Cameron McGregor adventures. Cameron McGregor-is a "good guy", a United States Marshal, who spent most days and many, many nights driving around crappy neighborhoods, talking to stupid people, drinking cold coffee, and looking for bad guys. He spent most of his time experiencing the seamy side of life that most people don't see. Eventually he found himself judging the world from an extremely limited perspective, and he started to see everything with a jaundiced eye-his whole existence began to be in a world of criminals and idiots. He just woke up one morning and realized that he badly needed to rebalance his life. He knew that most jobs have a healthy balance; with good things mixed with the bad. But not so in the kind of law enforcement work he did. He found himself thinking that ninety-eight percent of the people in the world are no good-and the two percent who are good-well, they carry badges-and even then, some are questionable. That's just not right-but that's where his mind was when he decided to retire. But life saw his retirement in a different way. Simply stated, his new life, by happenstance and circumstance, continued to present death-defying challenges that put him right back into the life he so vehemently wanted to leave behind. Who knew that assisting an apparently stranded passenger at an airport would cause him to have to unpack his badge and reload his gun? Non-Stop Flight takes the reader down a path that ranges from the ordinary dilemmas of airline travelers to matters of intrigue, vulnerability, danger, and revenge.

Harold Pinter, Fascism, and Outrage

Harold Pinter, Fascism, and Outrage

Dennis Eugene Russell

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2025
sidottu
This book locates Harold Pinter’s controversial anti-fascism, overtly political plays not as revolutionary works designed to mobilize the masses, but as cries of moral outrage against the authoritarian forces of oppression.Displaying on stage the plight of political prisoners facing illegal detainment, brutal interrogation, and torture, Pinter employs an aggressive, graphic style seeking to shock spectators out of their apathy and denial, and encourage awareness of such documented realities of fascist rule. Russell argues that Pinter’s political plays are not propagandistic screeds, but rather reflect a level of quasi-journalistic facticity about the global rise of fascism. The author emphasizes that Pinter develops a fictional framework in an effort to reach a level of truth beyond the mere compilation of facts. Pinter seeks to abrasively drill down through the facts of political torture to expose the truth that lies at the rotting core of fascism. Russell interprets Pinter’s fascism plays as artifacts of anti-theatre that abandon conventional theatrical narrative in favor of a sensorial assault on spectators to raise consciousness of the rising threat of fascist rule. He argues that by compelling audiences to witness fascist brutality, Pinter paints spectators into a corner of moral perplexity.

Winston Churchill, Russell Brand, Agatha Christie and Dennis Fish saved England: The fight for Westminster
Dennis Fish, the enfant terrible of polite British society, bursts back into our collective consciousness in this hilarious, laugh a minute romp. Following on from the award winning spoof biography, also available in this format: - America Loves Bill Bryson, Sex, Pornography and Lothario Dennis Fish, this second instalment of the award winning Dennis Fish Trilogy has our hero chancing his arm at an audacious tilt to become an elected member for Parliament at the upcoming General Election. Aided by Texan 'pit bull' Bubba Zendowski, a brutal and battle hardened America political campaigner, who is head hunted to lead his team, Dennis, an instant Anti-Propaganda 'man of the people' launches his election bid in no less a place than the own backyard of incumbent Prime Minister David Chameleon. To further complicate matters, reptilian- faced, UQUIP master of the dark arts, Neil Lefarge is also standing on the same ballot, in the same West Oxfordshire constituency of Withey. The campaign kicks off cordially enough, but quickly disintegrates into a childish and spiteful battle, splattered with mischief, intrigue, criminality and riotous belly laughs. Strap yourself in as Dennis sprinkles big dollops of his usual buffoonery into the mix, resulting in a rich souffl of comedy gold that surely has never been surpassed in the murky world of British Politics. Can Dennis really be taken seriously as a would be politician ? Or will he be cruelly exposed by an establishment in fear of a popular public icon? Find out in this gem of a book that will grab your heart strings and reduce you to tears.....................of laughter.
Terrestrial Biosphere-Atmosphere Fluxes

Terrestrial Biosphere-Atmosphere Fluxes

Russell Monson; Dennis Baldocchi

Cambridge University Press
2014
sidottu
Fluxes of trace gases, water and energy - the 'breathing of the biosphere' - are controlled by a large number of interacting physical, chemical, biological and ecological processes. In this interdisciplinary book, the authors provide the tools to understand and quantitatively analyse fluxes of energy, organic compounds such as terpenes, and trace gases including carbon dioxide, water vapour and methane. It first introduces the fundamental principles affecting the supply and demand for trace gas exchange at the leaf and soil scales: thermodynamics, diffusion, turbulence and physiology. It then builds on these principles to model the exchange of water, carbon dioxide, terpenes and stable isotopes at the ecosystem scale. Detailed mathematical derivations of commonly used relations in biosphere-atmosphere interactions are provided for reference in appendices. An accessible introduction for graduate students and a key resource for researchers in related fields, such as atmospheric science, hydrology, meteorology, climate science, biogeochemistry and ecosystem ecology.

There Is a Way is all about how we get from where we are to where God wants us to be. It is no easy task to describe this trek, but it is the author's goal to offer intriguing ideas and concepts regarding this adventure God offers us. As a pastor and therapist, Kaufman has had a bird's eye view of the life journey of hundreds of people. He uses biblical truth and compatible psychological concepts to describe the skills and practices that help us get from the "as is" to our desired goals. This book is designed to be pragmatic. Although there are plenty of deep thoughts to wrestle with, it is also crafted to speak in practical ways about what works. This book includes nine real-life case studies that illustrate how these skills can lead us to a fulfilling life of faith. When we are committed to integrating God's truth into daily life, growth and positive change tend to follow. It is the author's prayer that these pages stir things within you to see God more clearly, love God more, and find the jet stream of God's grace for your future.

Praying the Heavenlies: through Prayer, Fasting, and the Word

Praying the Heavenlies: through Prayer, Fasting, and the Word

"The following is God's revelation, as a soldier in Christ, why we need to Pray, Fast, and stand upon the Word of God in binding the earthly and heavenly authorities. Over the last fives years of liberation ministry, my theology has had to explain the spiritual promises inherited in Christ. I have come face-to-face with demons, witches, cocaine filled demoniacs, attempts upon my life, and spiritual attacks by territorial forces. I found that I needed to learn to Pray, Fast, and seek the Word for His will. I wanted to learn more about God's spiritual warfare and how I could better fight in His army. The battle we wage is not just a horizontal three dimensional fight, but we must pray the heavenlies in order to enlist the fourth dimension. The upward spiritual prayers enable us to seek God's will, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the authority of Jesus Christ. This is when God enlists the angels on our behalf to bind up the evil.Prayer is our weapon to battle the dark forces. As I share the stories of God's great protection and deliverance from evil, I hope to convey some practical principles that will assist you in wrestling the world rulers. These experiences have taught me this one thing, the heavenly battles belong to the Lord. It is my desire that you will take a step in learning the Why's? and the How's? of pursuing God through Prayer, Fasting, and the Word. It is only through unified prayers, fasting, and standing together that we are able to raise the shield of faith in defeating the enemies flaming arrows."
The Weaponization of Expertise

The Weaponization of Expertise

Jacob Hale Russell; Dennis Patterson

MIT PRESS LTD
2025
sidottu
The problem with expertise and the dark side of the equation knowledge = power. Experts are not infallible. Treating them as such has done us all a grave disservice and, as The Weaponization of Expertise makes painfully clear, given rise to the very populism that all-knowing experts and their elite coterie decry. Jacob Hale Russell and Dennis Patterson use the devastating example of the COVID-19 pandemic to illustrate their case, revealing how the hubris of all-too-human experts undermined perhaps irreparably public faith in elite policymaking. Paradoxically, by turning science into dogmatism, the overweening elite response has also proved deeply corrosive of expertise itself in effect, doing exactly what elite policymakers accuse their critics of doing. A much-needed corrective to a dangerous blind faith in expertise, The Weaponization of Expertise identifies a cluster of pathologies that have enveloped many institutions meant to help referee expert knowledge, in particular a disavowal of the doubt, uncertainty, and counterarguments that are crucial to the accumulation of knowledge. At a time when trust in expertise and faith in institutions are most needed and most lacking, this work issues a stark reminder that a crisis of misinformation may well begin at the top.
Marks of Methodism

Marks of Methodism

Russell E. Richey; Dennis M. Campbell; William B. Lawrence

Abingdon Press
2005
pokkari
The title of this volume is as old as the Wesleyan movement and apt for the very latest Methodist theological self-designation.Marks of Methodism points back to John Wesley himself and to his efforts to define the movement.Such marks or hallmarks prescribe a basis for Methodist identity, purpose, and unity.They also serve to differentiate Methodists from other Christians, to sketch the boundaries of our movement, and to mark us off.Marks also invite attention to the conjunction of precept and practice, to the considerable recent affirmation of practices as the traditioning and corporate bearers of Christian faithfulness and witness; and therefore as the ground of theology and doctrine, and to Methodist embodiment of and featuring of traditioning practices long before that became fashionable. These marks point to an understanding of church, a doctrine of the church, an ecclesiology, embedded in the everyday structures, policies, organizations, and patterns of Methodist life."
