Butterbean knew she wasn’t always a good dog. Still, she’d never considered herself a BAD dog—until the morning that her owner, Mrs. Food, fell in the hallway. Admittedly the tile was slipperier than usual, mostly because Butterbean had just thrown up on it. Now Butterbean and her fellow pets have to come up with a grand plan to support themselves in case Mrs. Food is unable to keep taking care of them. When they discover a mysterious man in their building who seems to have lots of loot, they plan a heist. Oscar the mynah bird is the brains of the operation. Walt the cat has the necessary slyness and slink. Marco and Polo are the reconnaissance rats. And Butterbean...well, no one would ever suspect a cute little wiener dog, right? Can these animal friends can pull off the heist of the century?
Download or read book Emp Hoax written by David Hathaway and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-16 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lew Rockwell: "Scholars like Garet Garrett, John T. Flynn, and Murray Rothbard have pointed out that a main way the State adds to its power and tyrannizes over the people is to whip up alleged threats from a foreign power. Given the threat, defenders of the State say, don't we need to take countermeasures, however high the cost? Those of us who grew up in the '50s and '60s remember vividly the "drop drills" that prepared schoolchildren for an impending nuclear attack. The government neglected to tell us that America was far better armed than the Soviets. The "threat" was concocted to justify a militarist policy and massive government spending. In this careful study, David Hathaway has given us a microstudy of the Orwellian State's technique to add to its power. On July 8, 1962, an atomic warhead was detonated in the Pacific. One purpose of the blast was to study the impact, if any, of ElectroMagnetic Pulse (EMP) effects. One incident is alleged to show such effects. Based on this incident, the government concluded that hostile powers could use EMPs to disable the electronic infrastructure of our country. Even after the Cold War ended, the government has continued to tout the threat posed by EMPs. Hathaway comments: "The alleged incident happened on the island of Oahu which is made up of the City and County of Honolulu. This incident has developed a cult following within the EMP science community. The incident allegedly involved blown fuses in a small number (less than 1%) of street light strings. It has been trotted out for decades as the single definitive proof of EMP effects on power grid and long-wire infrastructure." Hathaway isn't convinced. He presents a painstaking discussion of the incident, subsequent investigations, and the science behind EMP effects. He writes clearly about complicated science, and his conclusion is backed by abundant evidence: "EMP is a ridiculous notion; one that we are supposed to give up our money, our common sense, and our freedom to validate. From the state's perspective, there is always some area of life where people haven't yet developed the proper level of panic to make them tolerate the forced filling of state coffers in relation to that area. There is always something new to fear that the public can't quite grasp without the government to ratchet up its fears." David Hathaway deserves our gratitude for his excellent and timely account of a little-known propaganda campaign by the State." Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr. Chairman and Founder of Mises Institute Auburn, Alabama December 15, 2017

Download or read book Spooked written by Gail Jarrow and published by Boyds Mills Press. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Washington Post Best Children's Book This book for young readers explores in riveting detail the false panic created by the famous War of the Worlds radio broadcast from 1938—as well as the repercussions of "fake news" today. On the night of October 30, 1938, thousands of Americans panicked when they believed that Martians had invaded Earth. What appeared to be breaking news about an alien invasion was in fact a radio drama based on H. G. Wells's War of the Worlds, performed by Orson Welles and his Mercury Theatre players. Some listeners became angry once they realized they had been tricked, and the reaction to the broadcast sparked a national discussion about fake news, propaganda, and the role of radio. In this compelling nonfiction chapter book, Gail Jarrow explores the production of the broadcast, the aftermath, and the concept of "fake news" in the media.

Download or read book Treat or Trick Halloween in a Globalising World written by Malcolm Foley and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2008-12-18 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1999 the French bishops condemned the celebration of Halloween in France. In 2003 the Moscow Department of Education recommended the banning of Halloween celebrations in all educational institutions under its control. In 2008 a group of Catalan intellectuals launched an internet petition against the Halloween celebrations organised by the Port Aventura theme park, arguing that they were detrimental to long-standing Catalan traditions associated with 31 October. In the meantime children and young people all over Europe—and increasingly adults—are energetically adopting and adapting the American version of Halloween as a source of fun, community building and general revelry. So are we all being tricked by rampant cultural imperialism, or responding creatively to the arrival of Halloween as a welcome onset-of-winter treat? This book, which arose out of the first-ever conference on the topic of Halloween held in Glasgow, Scotland, on 31 October 2006, brings together a series of studies examining the phenomenon of Halloween from a wide range of perspectives: its origins; the ways in which it is now and has been in the past celebrated in the British Isles; its spectacular arrival in both Eastern and Western Europe over the last two decades; its links with tourism; and its multifaceted presence in the media. What emerges is a phenomenon of astonishing complexity, characterised by multiple meanings and intense battles over ownership.
