Book Dope Rider

Download or read book Dope Rider written by Paul Kirchner and published by Editions Tanibis. This book was released on 2021-01-03 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dope Rider is back in town! After a 30-year hiatus, Paul Kirchner brought back to life his iconic, bony stoner hero whose first adventures were a staple of the psychedelic counter-culture magazine High Times in the 1970s and 1980s. The new stories collected in this book were all created after 2015 and despite the years, Dope Rider has stayed essentially the same, still smoking his ever-present joint, getting high and chasing metaphysical dragons through whimsical realities in meticulously illustrated and colorful one-page adventures. Fans of the original Dope Rider comics will still find the bold graphical innovations, dubious puns and wild dreamscapes inspired by classical painting and western movies that were some of Dope Rider’s trademark. This time though, Kirchner draws from a much larger panel of influences, including modern pop – and pot – culture (lines and characters from Star Wars as well as references to Denver as the US weed capital can be found here and there) and a wider range of artistic references, from Alice in Wonderland to 2001: A Space Odyssey to Ed Roth’s Kustom Kulture. Native American culture and mythology, only hinted at in the classic adventures, is also much more present in the form of Chief, one of Dope Rider’s new sidekicks. Kirchner’s playful, tongue-in-cheek humor binds together all these influences into stories that mock both the mundane and the nonsensical alike. Paul Kirchner lives in Connecticut. He started his career in the 1970s as an assistant to Wally Wood. His original Dope Rider stories are collected among other early works in the book Awaiting the Collapse. He also created the bus, a surrealistic monthly strip published in Heavy Metal magazine from 1979 to 1985 and illustrated the graphic detective novel Murder by Remote Control written by Janwillem van de Wetering. Paul Kirchner went back to comics during the 2010s with the bus 2 in 2015 and Hieronymus & Bosch in 2018. He continues to insist he has never used drugs, not even for research purposes.

Book excerpt: An alien artifact turns a young girl into Death's adopted daughter in Remote Control, a thrilling sci-fi tale of community and female empowerment from Nebula and Hugo Award-winner Nnedi Okorafor “She’s the adopted daughter of the Angel of Death. Beware of her. Mind her. Death guards her like one of its own.” The day Fatima forgot her name, Death paid a visit. From hereon in she would be known as Sankofa—a name that meant nothing to anyone but her, the only tie to her family and her past. Her touch is death, and with a glance a town can fall. And she walks—alone, except for her fox companion—searching for the object that came from the sky and gave itself to her when the meteors fell and when she was yet unchanged; searching for answers. But is there a greater purpose for Sankofa, now that Death is her constant companion? Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award (audiobook version).

Book Drone Warfare

  • Author : Medea Benjamin
  • Publisher : Verso Books
  • Release : 2013-05-01
  • ISBN : 1781684758
  • Pages : 146 pages

Download or read book Drone Warfare written by Medea Benjamin and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Groundbreaking exposé of the rapid shift to robot warfare, by a leading antiwar activist. Drone Warfare is the first comprehensive analysis of one of the fastest growing—and most secretive—fronts in global conflict: the rise of robot warfare. In 2000, the Pentagon had fewer than fifty aerial drones; ten years later, it had a fleet of nearly 7,500, and the US Air Force now trains more drone “pilots” than bomber and fighter pilots combined. Drones are already a $5 billion business in the US alone. The human cost? Drone strikes have killed more than 200 children alone in Pakistan and Yemen. CODEPINK and Global Exchange cofounder Medea Benjamin provides the first extensive analysis of who is producing the drones, where they are being used, who controls these unmanned planes, and what are the legal and moral implications of their use. In vivid, readable style, this book also looks at what activists, lawyers, and scientists across the globe are doing to ground these weapons. Benjamin argues that the assassinations we are carrying out from the air will come back to haunt us when others start doing the same thing—to us.

After a botched mission, the Regiment no longer want his services, but British Intelligence does - as a deniable operator. It's the dirtiest job in a very, very dirty world. In Washington DC, it's about to get dirtier still. On the apparently routine tail of two terrorists, Stone discovers the bodies of an ex-SAS officer and his family. Soon he's on the run with the lone survivor of the bloodbath - a seven-year-old girl. And whilst she can identify the killers, only Stone can keep them at bay - and solve a mystery whose genesis takes him back to the most notorious SAS mission in recent history...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you press the button on your television remote control to turn the television on, the beam is unseen or detectable yet has made contact. And so it is with the beamed electromagnetic technology in reported use by thousands of victims today nationwide and near millions globally being used as a covert method of physical torture by specific agencies, military personnel in the civilian arena, Federal (FBI - Joint Resource Intelligence Center (JRIC) in California) and Fusion Center leadership as the approving authority for unified military technology and military personnel, state and local police departments the new paradigm. A corrupt division of the Los Angeles Police Department, satellite counter-terrorism division, four floors underground, known as the Real-Time Analysis and Critical Response (RACR) Division is an example of the hidden and monstrous unchecked use of these weapons when used for hideous silencing, suppression of exposure of official illegal wrong, and subjugation. Scalar, Silent Sound, & Directed Energy Weapons (DEW) Sonic and acoustic, and the Active Denial System, also drone equipped, are in widespread use. As early as the 1930s, Nikola Tesla, and others called these types of weapons, having the health deteriorating effect using electromagnetic energy, the "Death Ray." The characteristic of these technologies' covert use, when used in relentless attacks on targeted victims is its intentional, deceptive, frightening design, designed to give the appearance of naturally occurring death or major illnesses by extremely low frequencies although it is technological, electromagnetic, slow kill. Leukemia, tumorous cancers, heart inflictions, and a host of other intentional medical conditions are manifested in targets resulting in slow debilitating illnesses and diseases. Those being used in remote technological experimentation, for many and varied reasons, are witnessing the slow manifestation of illnesses which range also from unusual joint deterioration to depression, migraines, weakness, and fatigue, to also extreme, and medically unexplained, severe neurological problems and autoimmune disease. Whistleblowers are described as "Primary Targets" such as Renee Pittman. "Primary Targets" are those who have been placed on the hit list, marked for slow kill, and are being heavily targeted, 24/7, in intentional physical and psychological torture programs using remotely directed microwave energy weapons, which are also termed psychotronic in a decisive manner to covertly, technologically, reduce a lifespan. The overall structure of this program is to destroy every aspect of the target's life, mentally and physically by using technology to create systematic tissue and organ damage, mental illness resulting from the deployment of the focused, directional beam relentlessly over a period of time. Victims who end up at this level, in this program are often those who begin to realize what is happening and by their exposure become a threat. "The Program" does not just stop with primaries. In the full spectrum of this ruthless, testing program, "Ordinary Victimized Individuals" are people who have been unsuspectingly put on a list to be either experimented on, destroyed, or mind controlled, with remote frequencies. Women, said to be 70% of those targeted, fit this category. This is especially true when single and living alone and reportedly are also being sexually exploited by patented stimulation beams. It is all done quietly, covertly, secretly, and is strategic and slyly orchestrated. Without public awareness, through mainstream media, on "Gag Orders" exposing these crimes, victims have no real help, when it is military and unified law enforcement. The torture then results in microwave COINTELPRO, "Covert Technological Murder" by the "Pain Ray Beam." The weapons are portable, handheld also and defined in the "Space Preservation Act of 2001, Sec. 7. and make the perfect official crime.

Book excerpt: On December 12th, 1982, a strange house in the remote mountains of North West Georgia became a bloody slaughterhouse for two men and their dogs. One of the victims-an accomplished scientist and university professor-experimented with the occult. A self-portrait found at the crime scene appeared to depict the professor gagged with gunshot wounds to his head, exactly as his body was discovered by investigators. Had he gazed into the future and witnessed his own death-or had the painting inspired the murder?The case became a media sensation with allegations of satanic cults, supernatural curses, and mind control experiments. The only thing stranger than the murders themselves was the legal odyssey that followed, resulting in four Supreme Court decisions and revelations that would stun the judicial system.After years of research involving court transcripts, audio recordings, and interviews with the participants in the case-including the murderers themselves-author Daniel Ellis peels back the layers of legend to reveal the truth behind one of the most bizarre true crime cases ever to emerge from the dark Southern woods-Corpsewood: A True Crime Like No Other.
