Book excerpt: The forensic anthropologist wonders who would steal the bones of a deceased colleague—and why: “A likable, down-to-earth, cerebral sleuth.” —Chicago Tribune There is not much left of the irascible Albert Evan Jasper, “dean of American forensic anthropologists,” after his demise in a fiery car crash. But in accord with his wishes, his remains—a few charred bits of bone—are installed in an Oregon museum to create a fascinating if macabre exhibit. All agree that it is a fitting end for a great forensic scientist—until what is left of him disappears in the midst of the biannual meeting (a.k.a., the “bone bash and weenie roast”) of the august WAFA—the Western Association of Forensic Anthropologists—in nearby Bend, Oregon. Like his fellow attendees, Gideon Oliver—the Skeleton Detective—is baffled. Only the WAFA attendees could possibly have made off with the remains, but who in the world would steal something like that? And why? All had an opportunity, but who had a motive? Soon enough, the discovery of another body in a nearby shallow grave will bring to the fore a deeper, more urgent mystery, and when one of the current attendees is found dead in his cabin, all hell breaks loose. Gideon Oliver is now faced with the most difficult challenge of his career—unmasking a dangerous, brilliant killer who knows every bit as much about forensic science as he does. Or almost. Make No Bones is the 7th book in the Gideon Oliver Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.

Book Synopsis Tell It Like It Is, Make No Bones About It by : Carol S. Stephens
Download or read book Tell It Like It Is, Make No Bones About It written by Carol S. Stephens and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you think that you are small and insignificant in this vast world that God created, think again. As a teen, I was saddled with the nickname of Giggles. Usually I would break out in uncontrollable giggles at a time when I should seriously be listening. One time I said something to my best friend, Mary Beth, in choir. We started silently laughing, trying not to be heard. The pastor was preaching. I was shaking, then all of a sudden with a loud gasp, I gulped in air. Everything stopped and was deathly quiet. When I looked up, the pastor and the whole church were looking at me. As an adult, my nickname turned from Giggles to Trouble. I didn’t cause big problems; it was more just mischievousness. After saying numerous times that I would never take Precept because I could never imagine studying the Bible one verse at a time, God put me in Precept. During the study of Hebrews, I was doing my homework and got frustrated because it was difficult for me to understand. All of a sudden, the Holy Spirit took control of my pen and led me to write, “Lord, I Don’t Understand.” It only took about ten minutes. I could not have possibly written it on my own especially since this was my first writing. I promised the Lord that I would give that writing out to as many people as I could. I sent that out instead of Christmas cards that year. It is also in our church prayer room to be sent out in prayer grams. I am so concerned with how people are not taking God seriously. I am also concerned with how they are trying to make God’s Word say something different to fit their lifestyle. God warns us to not add or take away from the words of the prophecy of His Book. Now God has led this small town girl to do a book of writings and paintings. I am not perfect, and God is still working in me. Always keep in mind that God loves us just the way we are, but if we love God, we will change. We hear so many lies nowadays that it’s hard to know what to believe. I believe in God’s Word. It is the truth and so goes my title because I’m not one to beat around the bush. “Tell It Like It Is, Make No Bones About It.”
Book Synopsis Early American Proverbs and Proverbial Phrases by : Bartlett Jere Whiting
Download or read book Early American Proverbs and Proverbial Phrases written by Bartlett Jere Whiting and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1977 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: p.B. J. Whiting savors proverbial expressions and has devoted much of his lifetime to studying and collecting them; no one knows more about British and American proverbs than he. The present volume, based upon writings in British North America from the earliest settlements to approximately 1820, complements his and Archer Taylor's Dictionary of American Proverbs and Proverbial Phrases, 1820-1880. It differs from that work and from other standard collections, however, in that its sources are primarily not "literary" but instead workaday writings - letters, diaries, histories, travel books, political pamphlets, and the like. The authors represent a wide cross-section of the populace, from scholars and statesmen to farmers, shopkeepers, sailors, and hunters. Mr. Whiting has combed all the obvious sources and hundreds of out-of-the-way publications of local journals and historical societies. This body of material, "because it covers territory that has not been extracted and compiled in a scholarly way before, can justly be said to be the most valuable of all those that Whiting has brought together," according to Albert B. Friedman. "What makes the work important is Whiting's authority: a proverb or proverbial phrase is what BJW thinks is a proverb or proverbial phrase. There is no objective operative definition of any value, no divining rod; his tact, 'feel, ' experience, determine what's the real thing and what is spurious."

Book Synopsis The Role of Dictionary Use in the Comprehension of Idiom Variants by : Renata Szczepaniak
Download or read book The Role of Dictionary Use in the Comprehension of Idiom Variants written by Renata Szczepaniak and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book takes up the subject of dictionary use from the perspective of advanced learners. The study aims to explore the effects of the use of a monolingual learner’s dictionary on students’ performance in a complex comprehension task, i.e. the task of interpreting fragments with modified idioms, which often disrupt the fluent reading process. The theoretical part summarises the results of lexicographic research in the field of receptive dictionary use and discusses its methodological aspects. Moreover, it introduces relevant elements of the reading theory and analyses the nature of idiomatic expressions, their transformations in particular, from a psycholinguistic point of view. Finally, problems connected with the presentation of idioms in monolingual learner’s dictionaries are highlighted. The major, empirical part reports on an experiment, whose aim was to find connections between the consultation process, the way of presenting lexicographic information on idioms, and comprehension scores. The results reveal a mildly positive influence of the monolingual learner’s dictionary on reading comprehension performance. Among the reasons for underachievement were misinterpretation of entries and insufficient processing of dictionary information in context.

Download or read book Dictionary of Idioms & Phrases written by Sugat Gewali and published by Neelam Publishers Jalandhar, Delhi. This book was released on 2020-06-22 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Activity of learning idioms and pharses is not as easy as learning simple day to day English words or vocabulary but it is also not as hard as it at first seems to be. However, the Use of Pharses in the activity of writting or speaking can not be seen as less important than other common words or expressions . So it is important to have our knowledge of idioms and phrases and their correct meanings by learning them as thoroughly as any conversational English words and meaning given in the English Dictionary , or by practising them as much as we can to enhance our language competence.
