Download or read book Asteroids written by Martin Elvis and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2021-05-01 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique, wide-ranging examination of asteroid exploration and our future in space Human travel into space is an enormously expensive and unforgiving endeavor. So why go? In this accessible and authoritative book, astrophysicist Martin Elvis argues that the answer is asteroid exploration, for the strong motives of love, fear, and greed. Elvis's personal motivation is one of scientific love--asteroid investigations may teach us about the composition of the solar system and the origins of life. A more compelling reason may be fear--of a dinosaur killer-sized asteroid hitting our planet. Finally, Elvis maintains, we should consider greed: asteroids likely hold vast riches, such as large platinum deposits, and mining them could provide both a new industry and a funding source for bolder space exploration. Elvis explains how each motive can be satisfied, and how they help one another. From the origins of life, to "space billiards," and space sports, Elvis looks at how asteroids may be used in the not-so-distant future.

Book excerpt: The friends, three professional women and a no nonsense older woman, sat near each other in church. At the Reverend's direction the congregation stood and bowed their heads for prayer. Joy Stanton, an executive assistant, divorcee, and single mom, asked God's forgiveness for the mistakes and misjudgments that changed her role from custodial parent to weekend mom. Leanne Hilliard, a married college professor, prayed for a little girl of her own. She also asked God to mend her broken marriage and to forgive her for the lover she was going to meet as soon as the service was over. Vanessa Becker, a cute, sexy Ad exec, was uncomfortable in the long-sleeved dress she was wearing on this warm Sunday, but it covered the black and blue bruises on her arms. She asked God to make her live-in boyfriend see how much she loved him so the abuse would stop. Doretha Muncie was an older woman who sat two pews up. She said her Amen, and resumed her seat. Her prayer was always the same-she asked God's forgiveness for breaking one of His commandments. The sixth one.

Download or read book Hitting A Straight Lick with a Crooked Stick written by Susan E Meisenhelder and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2001-06-18 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zora Neale Hurston is a controversial figure, equally praised and criticized for her representation of African-Americans; while some critics emphasize her ebullience and celebration of Black culture, others call her fiction stereotypical and essentialist. Observing the workings of the recurrent humor in her works helps explode this critical binary opposition. Specifically, the carnivalesque and the heteroglossia often subvert essentialist notions of (Black) identity. Jonah's Gourd Vine's protagonist, the preacher-womanizer John Pearson, can be seen as an African rather than an African-American trickster figure, i.e. as a mobile character whose liminality helps him fight essentialist definitions imposed on him by both the white establishment and his own community. Janie's romantic search for self-fulfillment in Their Eyes Were Watching God is undermined by the humor and the carnival, which emphasize her shifting and multiply defined identity. Finally, the African-Americanized story of Moses and the Hebrews shows the conflicts involved in their search for a unified national and cultural identity. In these three novels, Hurston appears as a subversive presence whose manipulation of humor underscores a complex political vision.
