Download or read book Judy Does Christmas written by Debra Salonen and published by Loner Llama Press. This book was released on 2024-04-12 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Holiday party trial-by-fire? Isn’t there a law against that? Newlywed Judy Banger-Canby has a secret: she's no fan of Christmas. Her “Ho-ho-ho” is more “Ho-ho-hum.” Too bad she never had that all-important “holiday” talk with new hubby Wiley "Elf-on-the-Bench" Canby before saying, “I do.” Because when it comes to celebrating Christmas, she’s a definite: “I don’t.” It’s just a party…to prove how much he loves his new wife. Judge Wiley Canby is baffled by Judy’s lukewarm reception of his brilliant idea: throwing a giant Christmas blowout to close one chapter of his life and usher in a new beginning with the woman he loves. He gets that she's never hosted a gala and his friends didn’t exactly roll out the welcome mat for her, but it’s Christmas…the season of good will. What could possibly go wrong? "A fun story, that can give you a new lease on the holidays, just when they can seem overwhelming." ~ PatternDance

Download or read book Bradbury Beyond Apollo written by Jonathan R. Eller and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2020-08-22 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrated storyteller, cultural commentator, friend of astronauts, prophet of the Space Age—by the end of the 1960s, Ray Bradbury had attained a level of fame and success rarely achieved by authors, let alone authors of science fiction and fantasy. He had also embarked on a phase of his career that found him exploring new creative outlets while reinterpreting his classic tales for generations of new fans. Drawing on numerous interviews with Bradbury and privileged access to personal papers and private collections, Jonathan R. Eller examines the often-overlooked second half of Bradbury's working life. As Bradbury's dreams took him into a wider range of nonfiction writing and public lectures, the diminishing time that remained for creative pursuits went toward Hollywood productions like the award-winning series Ray Bradbury Theater. Bradbury developed the Spaceship Earth narration at Disney's EPCOT Center; appeared everywhere from public television to NASA events to comic conventions; published poetry; and mined past triumphs for stage productions that enjoyed mixed success. Distracted from storytelling as he became more famous, Bradbury nonetheless published innovative experiments in autobiography masked as detective novels, the well-received fantasy The Halloween Tree and the masterful time travel story "The Toynbee Convector." Yet his embrace of celebrity was often at odds with his passion for writing, and the resulting tension continuously pulled at his sense of self. The revelatory conclusion to the acclaimed three-part biography, Bradbury Beyond Apollo tells the story of an inexhaustible creative force seeking new frontiers.

Full of jaw-dropping anecdotes about the most famous divas and disputes of the past three decades, The King and I even features an afterword by the famed tenor himself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Five decades after the production and initial release of Rebel Without a Cause, this book examines both the complicated historical moment in which the film was made as well as its continuing and pervasive influence on film today. The contributors track how the film continues to speak to diverse audiences as a touchstone for imagined anxieties over adolescence and coming-of-age, traditional values of family and community, threats from abroad, and the provocations of mass or consumer society. Although the specific sources and motivations for rebellion have shifted, what has persisted is the film's singular power to represent rebellion in what could otherwise be seen as the everyday, and to move viewers to ponder its causes.

Fearless."It's pretty safe to say that Spy was the most influential magazine of the 1980s.

There's no magazine I know of that's so continually referenced, held up as a benchmark, and whose demise is so lamented" --Dave Eggers. "It's a piece of garbage" --Donald Trump.

Download or read book Group Techniques written by Gerald Corey and published by Brooks/Cole. This book was released on 1992 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sourcebook of techniques, designed to supplement theory or practicum books, explores the place and the usefulness of techniques, as well as their abuse. The authors hope to stimulate creativity in the readers approach to group work and to encourage group leaders to develop their own therapeutic styles. They there-fore offer this book as an outline for leaders to build upon in adapting techniques for their own situations, not as a cookbook of recipes to be rigidly followed. The goal is not to catalog techniques for every conceivable situation, but to teach leaders how to adapt the techniques presented and to develop others sensitively, crea-tively, and appropriately..The authors primarily assume that techniques are means, not ends, and that they are fundamentally at the service of the client, not the therapist. The book is especially strong on the leaders executive functions in the group: maneuvering and facilitating the group to optimize its effectiveness and relying on the members themselves to do the majority of the therapy. In addition, the authors hope to stimulate interest in the philosophical and ethical dimensions of group work, and they make reference to the Association for Specialists in Group Work (ASGW) ethical guidelines when relevant.
