Download or read book CloudDancer s Alaskan Chronicles Volume III written by CloudDancer and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alaskan Chronicles fans need look no further than the front cover, to know this book is a dramatic change from CloudDancer's first two humorous literary efforts. The new cover reflects the somber theme of the stories within. So what's happened? Did Cloudy run out of funny stories? No. CloudDancer still loves a good laugh or great flying story. When combined, all is right with the world. (Adding a gorgeous dame and a Bacardi and Coke helps too.) Another volume of Arctic flying funnies someday is a given. But, a while back, desperate to find an inner peace, and extinguish smoldering embers of anger that had glowed within for decades, CloudDancer wrote"Chains and Padlocks." It recounts the loss of two people he loved deeply. Internet response was overwhelmingly positive. And CloudDancer felt the exercise had helped to keep the inner demons at bay. Thus the genesis of this book; a collection of drama-filled tragedies. The little humor within is mostly ironic. All are written from the perspective of his direct involvement, as either a participant, or an observer of the drama. Seems Arctic flying, while mostly fun, is not always funny. All too often, people get killed doing it. Sometimes they're your friends.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At LAST! The long awaited Volume IV of CloudDancer's Alaskan Chronicles is in your hands! As you'll see inside, the wait was well worth it. After the gut-wrenching and soul-baring trip down the dark side of Memory Lane that was Volume III, The Tragedies, he needed some down time to recharge the creative batteries. Time to adjust to a new, better life and future, as a recovering alcoholic. Time to assess what had gone before, with an eye toward retaining what is best, and discarding those things in his past that hampered his ability to grow as a person and excel as an individual. The results speak for themselves! CloudDancer is back in the humor mode. Once again, this charming aerial miscreant falls in love with every airplane he flies and almost every girl he runs into. You'll be beside yourself with laughter sharing CloudDancer's adventures in the air, on the ground, and under the covers! You'll meet CloudDancer the FELON! He'll introduce you to some of his favorite FEDs, and you'll get the inside story of how he and his fellow pilots played cat-and-mouse with the boys from Fairbanks Flight Standards District Office 61, trying to stay one move ahead in their three-dimensional chess game. Finally, ride along as CloudDancer shows one of America's biggest 1970's pop & folk music stars how the bush pilots do it! Our only worry is CloudDancer won't promise us there will be a Volume V! But, on the upside, our favorite wing nut has revealed there are exploratory talks in Hollywood to bring the Chronicles to a screen in your living room. With fellow author and pilot Stan Jones of Anchorage, CloudDancer has developed scripts for television and movie adaptations combining his brand of aerial mischief and suspense with Stan's riveting "Nathan Active" series of Alaskan murder mysteries! If successful, we're sure CloudDancer will find the perfect Aloha shirt to complement the mandatory black tuxedo for the Oscars and Emmys!

Download or read book Restricted Data written by Alex Wellerstein and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2021-04-09 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nuclear weapons, since their conception, have been the subject of secrecy. In the months after the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the American scientific establishment, the American government, and the American public all wrestled with what was called the "problem of secrecy," wondering not only whether secrecy was appropriate and effective as a means of controlling this new technology but also whether it was compatible with the country's core values. Out of a messy context of propaganda, confusion, spy scares, and the grave counsel of competing groups of scientists, what historian Alex Wellerstein calls a "new regime of secrecy" was put into place. It was unlike any other previous or since. Nuclear secrets were given their own unique legal designation in American law ("restricted data"), one that operates differently than all other forms of national security classification and exists to this day. Drawing on massive amounts of declassified files, including records released by the government for the first time at the author's request, Restricted Data is a narrative account of nuclear secrecy and the tensions and uncertainty that built as the Cold War continued. In the US, both science and democracy are pitted against nuclear secrecy, and this makes its history uniquely compelling and timely"--

Download or read book Dancer written by Colum McCann and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2013-06-25 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Book Award–winning author’s biographical novel of Russian dancer Rudolf Nureyev: “Exuberant and exhilarating . . . a brilliant leap of imagination” (San Francisco Chronicle). In Dancer, Colum McCann tells the ballet icon’s story through the myriad voices of those who knew him. There is Anna Vasileva, Rudi’s first ballet teacher, who rescues her protégé from the stunted life of his provincial town; Yulia, whose sexual and artistic ambitions are thwarted by her Soviet-sanctioned marriage; and Victor, the Venezuelan street hustler, who reveals the lurid underside of the gay celebrity set. Spanning four decades and many worlds, from the horrors of the Second World War to the wild abandon of New York in the ‘80s, Dancer is peopled by a large cast of characters, obscure and famous: doormen and shoemakers, nurses and translators, Margot Fonteyn, Eric Bruhn, and John Lennon. And at the heart of the spectacle stands the artist himself, willful, lustful, and driven by a never-to-be-met need for perfection.

On his thirty-fifth birthday, Jake St. Cloud inherits a fortune—and learns the whereabouts of his mysterious half-brother. On her deathbed, Selma St. Cloud revealed that Jake had a sibling, a product of his father's affair. At last, Jake is in a position to track down Alex Rosario and make amends for their father's past neglect. At least, that's the plan. When their initial meeting goes badly, a distraught Jake crashes his car and is sentenced to community work—with Alex as his parole officer. Jake must spend a year helping Angelica Dancer and her daughter, Fancy, at the Dancer Foundation for neglected children. Fancy, scarred within and without by the accident that ended her ballet career, is even less happy with the arrangement than Jake. Yet as they're thrown together, Jake, Alex, Angelica, and Fancy make unexpected connections. And as he unravels the painful truths of his past, Jake realizes that his mother's greatest gift to him lies not in his inheritance, but in the future, and the family, he's slowly piecing together. . .

Download or read book Corporeal Politics written by Katherine Mezur and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2020-09-03 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Corporeal Politics, leading international scholars investigate the development of dance as a deeply meaningful and complex cultural practice across time, placing special focus on the intertwining of East Asia dance and politics and the role of dance as a medium of transcultural interaction and communication across borders. Countering common narratives of dance history that emphasize the US and Europe as centers of origin and innovation, the expansive creativity of dance artists in East Asia asserts its importance as a site of critical theorization and reflection on global artistic developments in the performing arts. Through the lens of “corporeal politics”—the close attention to bodily acts in specific cultural contexts—each study in this book challenges existing dance and theater histories to re-investigate the performer's role in devising the politics and aesthetics of their performance, as well as the multidimensional impact of their lives and artistic works. Corporeal Politics addresses a wide range of performance styles and genres, including dances produced for the concert stage, as well as those presented in popular entertainments, private performance spaces, and street protests.
