Nombre de pages: 178

WWIII broke out in February of 2025 between North Korea and the US. The only survivors were in Las Vegas Nevada approximately 100 were living in safe houses and were called healthy humans, approximately 200 were left out in the elements and were called damaged humans. There was one damaged human that caught the eye of the so called pale ones who were a special breed of healthy humans who had conquered the affects of the elements and formed a new society underground. That particular human was called the chief for he was a cherokee Indian chief over his once healthy tribe, the pale ones gave the chief a vaccine to make him healthy and it worked. The pale ones then gave the healthy humans the vaccination and then the damaged humans received the vaccination and it also worked for them. Now the whole three hundred humans were pale ones and they were led to what was called the second garden of Eden which was the under garden society that was slowly built by all of the pale ones. The story continues with the gates of hell that were opened by a child called Santuvious who had a vengeance for his mother who received help from God's angels as well as the mini angels found on earth at the...

The Octoroon

Auteure: M. E. Braddon

Nombre de pages: 263

The last notes of a favorite waltz resounded through the splendid saloons of Mrs. Montresor's mansion in Grosvenor Square; sparkling eyes and glittering jewels flashed in the lamp-light; the rival queens of rank and beauty shone side by side upon the aristocratic crowd; the rich perfumes of exotic blossoms floated on the air; brave men and lovely women were met together to assist the farewell ball given by the wealthy American, Mrs. Montresor, on her departure for New Orleans with her lovely niece, Adelaide Horton, whose charming face and sprightly manners had been the admiration of all London during the season of 1860. The haughty English beauties were by no means pleased to see the sensation made by the charms of the vivacious young American, whose brilliant and joyous nature contrasted strongly with the proud and languid daughters of fashion who entrenched themselves behind a barrier of icy reserve, which often repelled their admirers.

Imagining Transmedia

Auteure: Ed Finn , Bob Beard , Joey Eschrich , Ruth Wylie

Nombre de pages: 493

How the blurring of media forms—transmedia—became the default for how we experience narratives, and how that cultural transformation has redefined the worlds of education, entertainment, and our increasingly polarized public discourse. Over the past decade, the power of narrative has been unleashed with awesome and terrifying consequences, and it has been consumed in its blurred media forms by millions of people as news, entertainment, and education. Imagining Transmedia, edited by Ed Finn, Bob Beard, Joey Eschrich, and Ruth Wylie, explores the surprising ways that narratives working across media forms became the default grammar for both media consumption and personal expression and how multiplatform storytelling creates new media literacies and modes of civil discourse. Understanding this shift reveals transmedia as an essential building block of media literacy today. Transmedia is how we create, interpret, and participate in our increasingly mediated society. It extends beyond popular culture into professional and public spheres while, at the same time, it fuels the misinformation and polarization that have contributed to America’s fraying civic discourse. Reaching beyond...

Les rapports entre avocats et magistrats sont parfois tendus. Ces dernières années, la presse a relayé plusieurs crises qui ont déchiré les gens de lois. Pourtant, la majorité d’entre eux œuvrent avec respect vers un but commun : agir en faveur de la justice. Dans ces chroniques judiciaires, Aurore Boyard et Olivier Lambert nous emportent dans le quotidien de l’avocate Léa Dumas, et du magistrat Jacques Léon. Loin des fantasmes, ces experts nous présentent les réalités les plus difficiles de leurs professions. Entre violences familiales, divorces et tutelles, Léa et Jacques font face avec courage à la brutalité de la société qui gagne, aussi, les acteurs de la justice. Les personnages de ces témoignages riches, subtils et parfois amusants sont des exemples de pugnacité et de bienveillance. Un récit qui apaise.

TESOL Guide for Critical Praxis in Teaching, Inquiry, and Advocacy

Auteure: Crawford, Jenifer , Filback, Robert A.

Nombre de pages: 579

The field of TESOL encompasses English teachers who teach English as an additional language in English-dominant countries and those teachers who teach English as a foreign language in countries where a language other than English is the official language. This range of educators teaches English to children, adolescents, and adults in primary, secondary, post-secondary, popular education, and language academies or tutoring centers. The diversity of learners and contexts within the TESOL field presents a unique opportunity for educators to address varied educational and societal needs. This opportunity calls for TESOL educators who can support the whole learner in a range of contexts for the greater social good. There is an urgent need for readily reproducible and step-by-step research-based practices and current standards in TESOL that bridge the gap between critical scholarship and equitable teaching practices. This book would serve as a critical addition to current literature in TESOL. TESOL Guide for Critical Praxis in Teaching, Inquiry, and Advocacy is an essential reference that provides practical and equitable step-by-step guides for TESOL educators through the current best...
