Days Without End
A sleep deprivation bet careens out of control when a group of friends get together over spring break. One seasoned reporter, caught by chance in this maelstrom, attempts making sense of the carnage, though entirely out of his realm. While beginning as a lighthearted lark, what he encounters eventually finds him ruminating on our current worldwide climate, and its parallels to this insane odyssey.
What If Solving the Climate Crisis Is Simple?
Tom Bowman has never bought the idea that some problems are too complex to solve. With razor-like precision, he slices through the Gordian Knot of dispiriting misperceptions that lead to a sense of defeat. The result is an inspiring and practical narrative that will leave readers feeling uplifted and empowered to create a future they are eager to embrace.
Abuses of the Erotic
Events ranging from sexual abuse at Abu Ghraib to the end of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" hint that important issues surrounding gender and sexuality remain at the core of political and cultural problems. Nonetheless, intersectional analyses of militarism that account for questions of race, class, and gender remain exceedingly rare. Abuses of the Erotic fills this gap by offering a comprehensive picture of how military values have permeated the civilian cultural sphere and by investigating connections between sexuality and militarism in the United States since the late 1980s. Josh Cerretti takes up the urgent task of applying an interdisciplinary, transnational framework to the role of sexuality ...
The Flip Wilson Show
Analyzes the social, political, and institutional context of The Flip Wilson Show, which ran on NBC between 1970 and 1974. When The Flip Wilson Show debuted on NBC in 1970, the major legislative victories of the civil rights movement had been won, but the broadcast airwaves were far from integrated. A handful of shows featured black leading characters, but none had quite reached the top spot of the Nielsen ratings. By 1971, however, Wilson’s "old-fashioned" comedy-variety hour was a bonafide hit, and in January 1972 Time magazine declared Wilson "TV’s First Black Superstar." In this volume, Meghan Sutherland examines how The Flip Wilson Show succeeded in the volatile racial and economic ...
Life's Twists and Turns
I remember, Youth. I once firmly grasp your passion for life.I ran with your endless energy, flying over hill and dale, the wind straining to catch up and warm sunlight on my face.At night the stars were within my grasp and love surrounded my every move.Your strength pushed me to higher levels, free from pain, fatigue or future cares.Suddenly, somewhere along the joy-filled way of life I stopped to sleep. When I awakened you were gone.I searched for you but found you left me behind. In the accompaniment of a new lover you deserted me.I cry out for your return but to no avail.Now, I find solace in memories and sit a lonely traveler in a grim world filled with challenges I no longer care to take.My dreams are of youth and its thrills.But there is hope for my spirit is still young. In my mind I still run, love, conquer difficulties. I watch you now, in the laughter and song of my children and grandchildren.I find that you never left after all. You are endless.
