This story was going to begin like all the best stories. With a school bus falling from the sky. But no one saw it happen. They were all too busy— Talking about boogers. Stealing pocket change. Skateboarding. Wiping out. Braving up. Executing complicated handshakes. Planning an escape. Making jokes. Lotioning up. Finding comfort. But mostly, too busy walking home. Jason Reynolds conjures ten tales (one per block) about what happens after the dismissal bell rings, and brilliantly weaves them into one wickedly funny, piercingly poignant look at the detours we face on the walk home, and in life.

Download or read book Let Me Off at the Top written by Ron Burgundy and published by Crown Archetype. This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A shockingly candid and raw autobiography from legendary anchorman, jazz flutist, and host of The Ron Burgundy Podcast, Ron Burgundy. From his humble beginnings in a desolate Iowa coal mining town, his years at Our Lady Queen of Chewbacca High School to his odds-defying climb to the dizzying heights of becoming America’s most trusted and beloved television News Anchor, Ron Burgundy pulls no punches in Let Me Off at the Top! In his very own words Burgundy reveals his most private thoughts, his triumphs and his disappointments. His life reads like an adventure story complete with knock-down fights, beautiful women and double-fisted excitement on every page. He has hunted jackalopes with Bobby Kennedy and Peter Lawford, had more than his share of his amorous exploits, and formed the greatest on-air team in the history of televised news. Along the way, he hobnobbed with people you wish you knew and some you honestly wish you didn’t—celebrities, presidents, presidents' wives, celebrities' wives, dogs, and, of course Veronica Corningstone, the love of his life. Walter Cronkite, Barbra Streisand, Katie Couric, the list goes on. Who didn’t Mr. Burgundy, or “Ron” as he is known to his friends, rub elbows with in the course of his colorful and often criminal life? This may well be the most thrilling book ever written, by a man of great physical, moral and spiritual strength and not surprisingly a great literary talent as well. This book deserves a real shot at a Pulitzer Prize. In fact if it doesn’t win one then we will finally have proof that the Pulitzer is rigged. Ron Burgundy has taken the time to write a book. We owe it to him, as honest Americans, to read it.

Download or read book Argument and Inference written by Gregory Johnson and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2017-01-06 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thorough and practical introduction to inductive logic with a focus on arguments and the rules used for making inductive inferences. This textbook offers a thorough and practical introduction to inductive logic. The book covers a range of different types of inferences with an emphasis throughout on representing them as arguments. This allows the reader to see that, although the rules and guidelines for making each type of inference differ, the purpose is always to generate a probable conclusion. After explaining the basic features of an argument and the different standards for evaluating arguments, the book covers inferences that do not require precise probabilities or the probability calculus: the induction by confirmation, inference to the best explanation, and Mill's methods. The second half of the book presents arguments that do require the probability calculus, first explaining the rules of probability, and then the proportional syllogism, inductive generalization, and Bayes' rule. Each chapter ends with practice problems and their solutions. Appendixes offer additional material on deductive logic, odds, expected value, and (very briefly) the foundations of probability. Argument and Inference can be used in critical thinking courses. It provides these courses with a coherent theme while covering the type of reasoning that is most often used in day-to-day life and in the natural, social, and medical sciences. Argument and Inference is also suitable for inductive logic and informal logic courses, as well as philosophy of sciences courses that need an introductory text on scientific and inductive methods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secret societies have operated in Detroit for most of the city's history. Many started for fun and companionship. Others had more serious ends in mind. The African American Mysteries: The Order of the Men of Oppression helped enslaved people escape the South for freedom in Canada. During the Civil War, so-called black lantern societies like the Knights of the Golden Circle and the Union League waged a covert war in Detroit and across the northern Midwest. In the last century, it wasn't uncommon for a sober suburbanite to catch the train to Detroit and don yellow silk pantaloons, a purple fez and embroidered vest to drink "Tarantula juice." Join Bill Loomis in this fascinating look into the secret world of these groups.

Download or read book Secured Finance Law in China and Hong Kong written by Mark Williams and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-10-14 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines systematically the current systems of secured lending in China and Hong Kong, where companies or individuals offer personal property as security for credit advanced by a lender. Valid and enforceable security reduces the risk to the lender and so lowers the cost of credit to the borrower. However, the Hong Kong system, being largely derived from English law, is highly complex and in need of root-and-branch reform. The forces of inaction have triumphed and valuable opportunities to create a modern, rational and efficient system have been squandered. In China, on the other hand, a completely new system has been created in the last twenty years which, whilst it has various problems and defects, has some notable advantages over the common law equivalent found in Hong Kong.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Won't you tell me please, That life is eternal, And love is immortal, And death is only a new horizon.” Life is Eternal by Carley Simon In the mystic echoes of sorrow and heartache, a father never foresaw the depth of despair that would engulf him upon the loss of his son. Life seemed bereft of meaning, an arduous journey without purpose. Yet, amidst the shadows, he discovered a profound truth—that life transcends the boundaries of time, and a reunion awaits. This memoir unfolds as a poignant symphony, transforming grief into a beacon of hope. It beckons those who have loved and lost to embrace the belief that departed souls, if one truly believes, reach across the ethereal veil to share in the pain and communicate through subtle signs. The narrative, a testament to the indelible bond between father and son, navigates the tapestry of their shared existence—woven with threads of love, laughter, and inevitable missteps. The reader is guided through the son's celestial odyssey as a guardian angel—his ethereal wings navigating the realms beyond. In his quest to safeguard lives, he confronts drug dealers and a fallen angel, all while engaging in a cosmic dance with his father's reality. Signs manifest in unconventional ways, challenging the father to open his senses, perceive the ethereal messages, and embrace the enduring essence of life. The memoir delves into profound questions that echo in the corridors of grief—does heaven exist? Will the departed appear as spectral apparitions or in their full earthly form? How does time unfold in the afterlife? What of those who met tragic ends? It offers a captivating narrative, unraveling an alternate vision of the afterlife—one that transcends conventional perceptions, a realm where dreams of everlasting joy materialize. This extraordinary tale extends an invitation to believe, not merely out of longing, but out of the fear of missing out on a celestial existence—one that surpasses the bounds of imagination. Through the poignant pages of this memoir, the reader is prompted to explore the possibilities of an eternal life, a narrative that provides solace and stirs the embers of faith in the face of goodbyes that are never truly final.
