This book was released on 2007-05-24 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there anything holy in Springfield, the home to irascible Bart Simpson and his naive dad Homer, their enthusiastic evangelical neighbor Ned Flanders, the sourpuss minister Rev. Lovejoy, and the dozens of other unique characters who inhabit the phenomenally popular TV show? In this revision of the 2001 bestseller, author Mark Pinsky says yes! In this entertaining and enlightening book, Pinsky shows how The Simpsons engages issues of religion and morality in a thoughtful, provocative, and genuinely respectful way. With three new chapters and updates to reflect the 2001-2006 seasons, Pinsky has given a thorough facelift to the book that Publishers Weekly called "thoughtful and genuinely entertaining." The new material includes chapters on Buddhism and gay marriage and an extensive afterword that explores how religion is treated on the animated shows that have followed in the footsteps of The Simpsons: South Park, Family Guy, Futurama, American Dad, and King of the Hill.

Download or read book In Utopia written by J. C. Hallman and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2014-06-10 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2005, J.C. Hallman came across a scientific paper about "Pleistocene Rewilding," a peculiar idea from conservation biology that suggested repopulating bereft ecosystems with endangered "megafauna." The plan sounded utterly utopian, but Hallman liked the idea as much as the scientists did—perhaps because he had grown up on a street called Utopia Road in a master-planned community in Southern California. Pleistocene Rewilding rekindled in him a longstanding fascination with utopian ideas, and he went on to spend three weeks at the world's oldest "intentional community," sail on the first ship where it's possible to own "real estate," train at the world's largest civilian combat-school, and tour a $30 billion megacity built from scratch on an artificial island off the coast of Korea. In Utopia explores the history of utopian literature and thought in the narrative context of the real-life fruits of that history.

Download or read book Thelma s Diary 1935 written by Thelma F. Dyke and published by Author House. This book was released on 2013-07-03 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thelmas journal begins shortly after she asked her sisters to join her on an adventure around the world. While Marge agreed to accompany her, Ula declined for reasons unknown. Thelma and Marge left Akron, Ohio, in May 1935. The places theyd only read about were soon to become real-life adventures. The breathtaking views of the Grand Canyon and Mount Wilson were some of the riches they encountered on their way to the Dollar Steamship Lines in Los Angeles, where their cruise originated. Their first port of call was Honolulu. So taken by its beauty and tranquility, Thelma and Marge vowed to return. In Italy, they had a private audience with Pope Pius XI in Castel Gandolfo, his summer home outside Rome. Although Joyce wrote parts of this book, Thelmas diary is in her own words. Youll read about the events she witnessed and then wrote about each day, an uncensored depiction of two sisters out to explore and experience life. Joyces wish to preserve family history compelled her to share this memoir. It shows Joyces affection for the Dyke sisters and is a fitting tribute to their extraordinary lives.

Download or read book Batting Cleanup Bill Conlin written by Bill Conlin and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over three decades Bill Conlin has anchored one of America's best sports sections: the back pages of thePhiladelphia Daily News.Conlin has spent his entire career in Philadelphia, starting with thePhiladelphia Bulletinbut he is probably best known for his tremendous contribution to thePhiladelphia Daily News.This sassy tabloid combines sharp reporting with lively opinion writing, provocative headlines, and its irreverent voice as a self-styled "People Paper." Its sports section, in particular, bristles with what Philadelphians call "atty-tude.""Batting Cleanup, Bill Conlin"is a collection of his best sports writing. From behind the scenes, Conlin presents athletes as all too human but his descriptions of game action convey the magnitude of the athletes' talent, and the demands of the sport itself. His writing is widely appreciated for the way it captures an intricate moment of baseball time through a series of sharp images and dynamic verbs. In making the selections for this volume, editor Kevin Kerrane reveals how Conlin's playfulness with language and ideas led to creative nicknames —like "The Jowly Grim Giant" for Georgetown basketball coach John Thompson—and to entire stories based on outrageous premises. Who else would report a baseball game from the viewpoint of a space alien? Who else would interview God to find out what He really thinks about Randall Cunningham? Conlin's columns deal with just about everything. Or maybe it just seems that way because he brings just about everything to bear on a topic that interests him: lessons from military history, characters from Shakespeare, personal experiences, persistent reporting, amusing one-liners, and laugh-out-loud jokes. His "King of the World" columns offer a fantasy of poetic justice in which fools and knaves are skewered, but with humor rather than heavy-handed moralizing. This humor, insight, keen intelligence, and a true love of sport has made Conlin a cult figure among sports fans. Kerrane explains such admiration this way: "It's not just because of Conlin's fierce honesty, or broad curiosity, or Irish wit, it's also because of his deep feeling for the values of sport—which baseball, in his telling, crystallizes so beautifully." Author note:Kevin Kerraneis Professor of English at the University of Delaware, Newark.

Download or read book Enviro Toons written by Deidre M. Pike and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes an ecrocritical approach to analytical readings of animated feature films, short subjects and television shows. Beginning with the "simply subversive" environmental messages in the Felix the Cat cartoons of the 1920s, the author examines "green" themes in such popular animated film efforts as Bambi (1942), The Simpsons Movie (2007), Wall-E (2008) and Happy Feet (2008), as well as James Cameron's live action/animation blockbuster Avatar (2009). The discussion extends beyond American films to include the works of Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki, including the Oscar-winning Spirited Away (2002). Also evaluated for their pro-ecological content are the television cartoon series South Park and Futurama. The appendix provides a list of film and television titles honored with the Environmental Media Award for Animation.
