Plainsong

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Haruf, Kent, PUBLISHER: Large Print Distribution, In the small town of Holt, Colorado, a high school teacher is confronted with raising his two boys alone after their mother leaves. A teenage girl is pregnant and alone, with nowhere to go. And out in the country, two elderly brothers work the family homestead, the only world they've ever known. From these unsettled lives emerges a vision of life, and of the town and landscape that bind them together -- their fates somehow overcoming the powerful circumstances of place and station, their confusion, curiosity, dignity, and humor intact and resonant. Utterly true to the rhythms and patterns of life, Plainsong is a novel to care about, believe in, and learn from.

Beyond the Ivory Tower: The University in the New Millennium

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hoey-Heffron, Angela / Heffron, James, PUBLISHER: Mercier Press, The new millennium is a unique occasion for individuals and organisations to examine their existing role in society, to take stock and to make projections for the future. This is particularly true of educational institutions, all of which have large numbers of young people looking forward with anticipation and exhilaration to a new world of expanded opportunity and a seemingly unending fount of new knowledge. Foremost in this quest is the university, where new research in the sciences, medicine and the humanities is proceeding at a pace never before thought possible. The rate of acquisition of new information and knowledge poses new challenges for the traditional university. This book examines many crucial questions, looking at the role of a modern university in the new millennium and the question of academic freedom and university autonomy.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Farmer, Nancy, PUBLISHER: Perfection Learning, MATTEO ALACRaN WAS NOT BORN; HE WAS HARVESTED. His DNA came from El Patron, lord of a country called Opium -- a strip of poppy fields lying between the United States and what was once called Mexico. Matt's first cell split and divided inside a petri dish. Then he was placed in the womb of a cow, where he continued the miraculous journey from embryo to fetus to baby. He is a boy now, but most consider him a monster -- except for El Patron. El Patron loves Matt as he loves himself, because Matt is himself. As Matt struggles to understand his existence, he is threatened by a sinister cast of characters, including El Patron's power-hungry family, and he is surrounded by a dangerous army of bodyguards. Escape is the only chance Matt has to survive. But escape from the Alacran Estate is no guarantee of freedom, because Matt is marked by his difference in ways he doesn't even suspect.

Amazing Prophecies Being Fulfilled

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rogers, Herb, Jr., PUBLISHER: Xulon Press, Herb Rogers has been in full time ministry for over 50 years as the senior pastor in churches in Colorado, California and Florida. During his ministry Bible prophecy has been a frequent topic in his preaching. This book is a compilation of decades of intense study in the area of Biblical signs of the times. The signs of the times found in Scripture are startling in number when viewed together. They stand as proof that our generation is witnessing events that have never happened in all of recorded history. Jesus said that we would know that the end of the age is near when these signs all occur at the same time. The thing that makes this study amazing is that all of the hundreds of things predicted in God's Word are not only presently happening, but they are increasing in intensity and number as we rush toward the final fulfillment of all things. The book will name each sign individually, give the scripture verses that predicted it and then share articles from magazines, books, etc. that substantiate the progress of each sign in our present world. Even the unsaved are aware that the world seems to be moving toward some sort of a climax.It appears that the world has entered an era of dramatic and ominous change. At the present moment the planet is in severe crisis. In we saw bank failures, the stock market crash, and bailouts of all sorts. Unemployment has soared, foreclosures of homes have been epic in scope, and businesses are closing by the thousands, including some of the largest stores in America. What does it all mean? This book presents an awesome answer to this question.

Choreographing Empathy: Kinesthesia in Performance

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Foster, Susan Leigh, PUBLISHER: Routledge, "This is a urgently needed book a " as the question of choreographing behavior enters into realms outside of the aesthetic domains of theatrical dance, Susan Foster writes a thoroughly compelling argument" - AndrA(c) Lepecki, New York University "May well prove to be one of Susan Fostera (TM)s most important works." - Ramsay Burt, De Montford University, UK What do we feel when we watch dancing? Do we a dance alonga inwardly? Do we sense what the dancera (TM)s body is feeling? Do we imagine what it might feel like to perform those same moves? If we do, how do these responses influence how we experience dancing and how we derive significance from it? Choreographing Empathy challenges the idea of a direct psychphysical connection between the body of a dancer and that of their observer. In this groundbreaking investigation, Susan Foster argues that the connection is in fact highly mediated and influenced by ever-changing sociocultural mores. With the term a choreographya now being employed to describe troop movements in Iraq, the management of boardroom discussions and even the co-ordination of traffic lights, this is a reconception with ramifications not just for dance studies but for performance studies as a whole. Foster traces the changing definitions of choreography, kinesthesia and empathy from the s to the present day, showing how the observation, study and discussion of dance has developed through time. Understanding this development is key to understanding physicality and the body politic.
