Book excerpt: Each week on Impractical Jokers, Staten Island natives, enduring friends since high school, and Tenderloin Troupe players Sal, Joe, Murr, and Q, compete to embarrass each other in absurd challenges. From holding dog poop in a public park to being stuffed inside a piñata and hung from a crane, their broad-natured comedy is edgy but not raunchy, and always good natured. After more than twenty-five years and numerous pranks, the members of this crazy quartet still love each other-and love to mess with each other. Impractical Jokers is the story of the long, enduring, complex relationship of these four best friends who rose from class clowns in an all-boys Catholic high school on Staten Island to professional comedians selling out Radio City Music Hall-and the hilarious situations they stumbled in and out of along the way. The guys offer a behind-the-scenes look at their show, including how they pull off their gags, the embarrassing moments that go on after the cameras stop rolling, and even the pranks that were too wild to air. Sal, Joe, Murr, and Q also teach you how to replicate the fun with your own friends-drawing on their experiences as well as gags resurrected from the writers' room floor. Family friendly and addictively entertaining, Impractical Jokers is the ultimate book for millions of Impractical Jokers fans of all ages-and every Joker-in-training.

Book Beyond the Death Penalty

Download or read book Beyond the Death Penalty written by Hans Nelen and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains a selection of papers that were presented during the multidisciplinary conference "Beyond the Death Penalty: Reflections on Punishment," organized by the Maastricht Center for Human Rights. The event marked the 150th anniversary of the de facto abolition of the death penalty in the Netherlands. The aim of the conference was to reflect on punishment from a variety of angles and to give some food for thought to the contemporary debate on crime and punishment. As the title suggests, the scope of this volume moves beyond the death penalty. After a first cluster of chapters with a strong focus on capital punishment, an intriguing mixture of topics in relation to punishment is presented, including chapters on the populist context of contemporary crime control, reconciliation and rehabilitation, prison life, and efficiency and effectiveness. The book will match the interest of many academics, including legal scholars, criminologists, penologists, legal philosophers, sociologists, psychologists, and historians.

Book excerpt: Detroit-based homicide detective John Barnes has seen it all, literally. Thanks to a technologically advanced machine, detectives have access to the memories of the living, the dying, and the recently dead. But extracting victims' experiences first hand and personally reliving everything up to the final, brutal moments of their lives, the sights, the sounds, the scents, the pain, is also the punishment reserved for the criminals themselves. Barnes has had enough. Enough of the memories that aren't his. Enough of the horror. Enough of the voices inside his head that were never meant to take root ... until a masked serial killer known as Calavera strikes a little too close to home. Now, with Calavera on the loose, Barnes is ready to reconnect, risking his life and his sanity. Because in the mind of this serial killer, there is one secret even Barnes has yet to see.

Book Provocation and Punishment

Download or read book Provocation and Punishment written by Samantha Joo and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-02-16 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the problem of theodicy arising from the fall of Jerusalem (587 B.C.E.) in the book of Jeremiah. It explores the ways in which the authors of the book of Jeremiah tried to explain away their God's responsibility while clinging to the idea of divine mastery over human affairs. In order to trace the development of a particular book's understanding of God's role in meting out punishments, this book analyzes all the passages containing the word pivotal, הכעיס (“to provoke to anger”) in Deuteronomistic History and the book of Jeremiah.

Book Death by Design

    Book Details:
  • Author : Craig Haney
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2005-08-04
  • ISBN : 0198040229
  • Pages : 350 pages

Download or read book Death by Design written by Craig Haney and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005-08-04 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can otherwise normal, moral persons - as citizens, voters, and jurors - participate in a process that is designed to take the life of another? In DEATH BY DESIGN, research psychologist Craig Haney argues that capital punishment, and particularly the sequence of events that lead to death sentencing itself, is maintained through a complex and elaborate social psychological system that distances and disengages us from the true nature of the task. Relying heavily on his own research and that of other social scientists, Haney suggests that these social psychological forces enable persons to engage in behavior from which many of them otherwise would refrain. However, by facilitating death sentencing in these ways, this inter-related set of social psychological forces also undermines the reliability and authenticity of the process, and compromises the fairness of its outcomes. Because these social psychological forces are systemic in nature - built into the very system of death sentencing itself - Haney concludes by suggesting a number of inter-locking reforms, derived directly from empirical research on capital punishment, that are needed to increase the fairness and reliability of the process. The historic and ongoing public debate over the death penalty takes place not only in courtrooms, but also in classrooms, offices, and living rooms. This timely book offers stimulating insights into capital punishment for professionals and students working in psychology, law, criminology, sociology, and cultural area studies. As capital punishment receives continued attention in the media, it is also a necessary and provocative guide that empowers all readers to come to their own conclusions about the death penalty.
