Download or read book Harry s Apology written by David Martin Anderson and published by ConRoca Publishing. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A former WWII American POW sues the Japanese government for an apology.... In Tokyo, hidden by towers of steel and glass, huddles the ancient temple known as Zojoji. It is a sacred haven where thousands of stone effigies of stillborns are scattered, awaiting the arrival of the deity, Jizobosatsu, the Shinto rescuer of lost souls. It is also the place where one of the effigies defiantly holds a small American flag. That lone statue is all that remains to the memory of the POW abuse at nearby Omori prison and to the young men who perished at the hands of their captors. After waiting fifty-five years, one of the POW survivors, Harry Kaplonsky, has initiated a lawsuit against the Japanese government to even the score: he is suing for an apology! Coincident with the litigation, Harry is being interviewed, his memoirs considered a literary gold mine. Aspiring author, Tinker, his autobiographer and the story's narrator, has cornered him at the annual USS Houston reunion eager to record the deeds that have turned Harry into a vengeful old man. Early on, she discovers Harry is dying of cancer and quite eager to divulge the truth about the abuse that took place at Omori. It is Harry’s guilt over the deaths of five crewmates that has sparked his desire to tell-all; likewise, his culpability has led to a fifty-year schism between himself and the remaining survivors. With the litigation, Harry is hoping to not only gain public attention for the plight of fallen comrades but also clear his name with his POW brothers. The legal action pits the old veteran against the might of the Japanese government and a U.S. State Department eager to gain trade concessions.

Download or read book Harry Expects A Murder written by Neal Enrick and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After gaining fanfare by cracking a sensational murder case, Harry Bittercress, a former army MP, sees his private eye career take off. "Good cases are finally coming my way!" he exclaimed. Harry is ably assisted by Cardamine, his Oxford-educated wife whose odd mixture of British-Jamaican ancestry and vocation in mystic reading and advising make her an ideal, if unorthodox, partner - whether Harry's pride can handle it or not.Such masculine insecurity is perhaps excusable given the year: 1953. Back then, a wife was typically an aproned homemaker. But Harry's wife? She does all that but so much more, poring over literature, philosophy, mathematics, and social and physical science journals. "My better half is as cute as a button and as sharp as a tack¿ a real dime piece!" you may overhear Harry enthuse at Papa Max's, the watering hole below his third-floor walk-up office in downtown Charlottesville, Virginia. "It's umm, adequate," Cardamine spoke kindly of his modest workspace.Harry'll need her assistance (and that of others) when a new, oddball case comes in over the transom: solving a murder that hasn't happened yet! His client calmly states, "Someone's going to kill me. Afterwards, I want you to catch him."
Download or read book Internationalizing Teaching Localizing Learning written by Paul McPherron and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on ethnographic and policy data collected over a ten-year span at a university in the People’s Republic of China, this book analyses the history of English Language Teaching (ELT) polices in Chinese higher education. The book uses the university as a lens in which to investigate the creative imaginations and divergent (re)appropriations of teaching methods, learning materials, and language use in the Chinese ELT context. Book chapters move beyond mere descriptions of tensions and point to the local understandings and practices of English teachers (both local and foreign) and students. Working together, these teachers and students are constantly articulating new social and political conditions and meanings outside and inside given discourses and traditions of ELT. The book’s main argument is that these multiple stakeholders must be given a more prominent role in shaping policy and curriculum at universities and other English language contexts around the world.

The Legend: Out of this nightmare emerged Patty Duke, a show business legend still searching for the child, Anna. She won three Emmy Awards and divorced three husbands. A starring role in Valley of the Dolls nearly ruined her career. She was notorious for wild spending sprees, turbulent liaisons, and an uncontrollable temper. Until a long hidden illness was diagnosed, and her amazing recovery recovery began. The Triumph: Call Me Anna is an American success story that grew out of a bizarre and desperate struggle for survival. A harrowing, ultimately triumphant story told by Patty Duke herself—wife, mother, political activist, President of the Screen Actors Guild, and at last, a happy, fulfilled woman whose miracle is her own life.
