Download or read book Revenge of the Nerd written by Curtis Armstrong and published by Thomas Dunne Books. This book was released on 2017-07-11 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Risky Business. Revenge of the Nerds. Better Off Dead. Moonlighting. Supernatural. American Dad. New Girl. What do all of these movies and television shows have in common? Curtis Armstrong. A legendary comedic second banana to a litany of major stars, Curtis is forever cemented in the public imagination as Booger from Revenge of the Nerds. A classically trained actor, Curtis began his incredible 40-year career on stage but progressed rapidly to film and television. He was typecast early and it proved to be the best thing that could have happened. But there’s more to Curtis’ story than that. Born and bred a nerd, he spent his early years between Detroit, a city so nerdy that the word was coined there in 1951, and, improbably, Geneva, Switzerland. His adolescence and early adulthood was spent primarily between the covers of a book and indulging his nerdy obsessions. It was only when he found his true calling, as an actor and unintentional nerd icon, that he found true happiness. With whip-smart, self-effacing humor, Armstrong takes us on a most unlikely journey—one nerd’s hilarious, often touching rise to the middle. He started his life as an outcast and matured into...well, an older, slightly paunchier, hopefully wiser outcast. In Hollywood, as in life, that counts as winning the game.

Download or read book Revenge and Reconciliation written by Rajmohan Gandhi and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2000-10-14 with total page 669 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An original, provocative and compelling reading of the subcontinent’s history In this remarkable study, well-known biographer Rajmohan Gandhi, underscoring the prominence in the Mahabharata of the revenge impulse, follows its trajectory in South Asian history. Side by side, he traces the role played by reconcilers up to present times, like the Buddha, Mahavira and Asoka. Encompassing myth and historical fact, the author moves from the circumstances of Drona’s death and Parasurama’s slaying of the Kshatriyas to the burst of Islam in India and Akbar’s success in gaining acceptance for it, the executions of Guru Arjan Dev and Guru Tegh Bahadur, and Shivaji’s achievement of self-rule. His explanation of the 1947 division of India identifies the role of the 1857 Rebellion in shaping Gandhi’s thinking and strategy, and reflects on the wounds of Partition. The survey of post-Independence India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka also touches upon the tragic bereavements of six of their women leaders. Incisive and finely argued, Revenge and Reconciliation compels us to confront historical and contemporary realities of intolerance, while pointing to possible strategies of mutual accommodation in India and the rest of South Asia at the threshold of the twenty-first century.

But Gregory has two new patients who will drag him out of his introspection—and dare him to enter a storm of injustice and revenge. FBI special agent Kelda James is a hero, a woman who as a rookie agent made a choice, drew her gun, and saved a life, taking another.

Download or read book The Story of HMS Revenge written by Alexander Stilwell and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2009-09-17 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sweeping naval history chronicles the many British vessels to bare the name Revenge, from the sixteenth-century galleon to the twentieth-century submarine. The glory years of the Royal Navy can be glimpsed between Sir Francis Drake’s Revenge and the Polaris submarine of the same name, built four centuries later. In its various forms, Revenge was at the Armada, the Azores, Trafalgar, and Jutland and with weapons capable of terrible destruction. The first Revenge, a 46-gun galleon launched in 1577, symbolized the boldness and flair of that period. Commanded by the legendary Drake, it was faster and more maneuverable than the massive Spanish galleons. Many years later, the mighty 25,000-ton battleship was representative of the strength of the British Empire at its peak. The first Revenge would have comfortably fitted across the beam of this battleship. More than a study of these mighty ships, The Story of the HMS Revenge describes their commanders and crews as well. Illustrated throughout, it captures the flavor of life on board and details technological developments, and of course, the actions in which they were involved.
