Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After our hero Laney's page-turning adventure in RETURN TO THRAE what could happen next? Well Dear Readers, we have arrived at that point in Laney's education where all students of all persuasions must join forces to survive Science Fair! Gasp! What could be worse than preparing for Science Fair when you have no idea what to do? A whole group of students preparing for Science Fair who don't know what to do, that's what. In this case, however, there is a lesser-known aspect of Science Fair at the high school filled with exceptionally gifted teens No Holds Barred day. No Holds Barred day only arises once every five years, and this is the fifth year. So the students get to use their powers however they want. Laney and her friends want to leave what most students want to leave a legacy which has more to it than inventing glow-in-the-dark stain removal stuff. As things happen, the project goes awry and leads to a daisy-chain of events getting more and more discombobulated, until their project meets its end, sort of. Imagine what the teachers must be thinking. Imagine what the students must be thinking. Imagine what Ms. Galardi must have been thinking. She goes from writing a thrilling story about love, loss, trust, getting up after defeat, being who you are, and a harrowing and emotional whirlwind adventure on another planet to writing about Science Fair. But after all, academics are important, aren't they? (Just say yes.) Does she know something you don't? If she doesn't there is no reason for you to read this book. But she does, and you will know too. Just read the book and see for yourself. By the way, you may never look at your teachers the same way again. (Do any of your teachers think he or she is a werewolf?) Welcome to Judi Galardi's THRAE BACK ATCHA! where Science Fair isn't the only extravaganza, but it sure comes close. After all, scientific discoveries usually start with an idea, or a mistake...

Download or read book Blah Blah Blah written by Dan Roam and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever been to so many meetings that you couldn't get your work done? Ever fallen asleep during a bulletpoint presentation? Ever watched the news and ended up knowing less? Welcome to the land of Blah Blah Blah. The Problem: We talk so much that we don't think very well. Powerful as words are, we fool ourselves when we think our words alone can detect, describe, and defuse the multifaceted problems of today. They can't-and that's bad, because words have become our default thinking tool. The Solution: This book offers a way out of blah-blah-blah. It's called "Vivid Thinking." In Dan Roam's first acclaimed book, The Back of the Napkin, he taught readers how to solve problems and sell ideas by drawing simple pictures. Now he proves that Vivid Thinking is even more powerful. This technique combines our verbal and visual minds so that we can think and learn more quickly, teach and inspire our colleagues, and enjoy and share ideas in a whole new way. The Destination: No more blah-blah-blah. Through Vivid Thinking, we can make the most complicated subjects suddenly crystal clear. Whether trying to understand a Harvard Business School class, or what went down in the Conan versus Leno battle for late-night TV, or what Einstein thought about relativity, Vivid Thinking provides a way to clarify anything. Through dozens of guided examples, Roam proves that anyone can apply this systematic approach, from leftbrain types who hate to draw to right-brainers who hate to write. This isn't just a book about improving communications, presentations, and ideation; it's about removing the blah-blah- blah from your life for good.
Download or read book Cor Hydr Heart of the Snake written by Jono Borden and published by . This book was released on 2023-10-17 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ((Short Story Collection). Constellating around the hermit Alphard, from the Arabic al-fard, meaning "The Solitary One," named for the brightest star within the constellation Hydra-the largest in the night sky-which Tycho Brahe called "The Heart of the Snake," these twisted tales are stitched together by questions of immortality and temptation.Spanning vast geographies, centuries, and psychologies, the gothic grit and desolate dissonance of these absurd stories would best be classed among those defying classification, better exiled than at home alongside Horace Walpole's eccentric Hieroglyphic Tales, yarns defying definition by rewriting it, if not exceeding expectations then conflating them with adrenaline-adulating anticipation.These succinct curiosities weave in and out of Borden's well-known, labyrinthine psyche, not so much consolidating but extrapolating on Jono's many and varied esoteric interests which thread and pepper the book with a dark flavour those seeking to scorch an alternate path toward the light will savour.
