Book excerpt: As well as giving a specific account of every single time he's scored some smack, this disgusting memoir also details: the singular, pitbull-infested charm of the FRP ('Flat Roofed Pub') the curious French habit of injecting everyone in the arse rather than the arm why, by the time he got to Cambridge, he really, really needed a drink the pain of being denied a childhood birthday party at McDonalds the satisfaction of writing jokes about suicide how doing quite a lot of walking around London helps with his sciatica trying to pretend he isn't a total **** at Robert Webb's wedding that he has fallen in love at LOT, but rarely done anything about it why it would be worse to bump into Michael Palin than Hitler on holiday that he's not David Mitchell the novelist.

Book excerpt: A MEMOIR BY THE YOUNGEST RECIPIENT OF THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE As seen on Netflix with David Letterman "I come from a country that was created at midnight. When I almost died it was just after midday." When the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley in Pakistan, one girl spoke out. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced and fought for her right to an education. On Tuesday, October 9, 2012, when she was fifteen, she almost paid the ultimate price. She was shot in the head at point-blank range while riding the bus home from school, and few expected her to survive. Instead, Malala's miraculous recovery has taken her on an extraordinary journey from a remote valley in northern Pakistan to the halls of the United Nations in New York. At sixteen, she became a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest nominee ever for the Nobel Peace Prize. I AM MALALA is the remarkable tale of a family uprooted by global terrorism, of the fight for girls' education, of a father who, himself a school owner, championed and encouraged his daughter to write and attend school, and of brave parents who have a fierce love for their daughter in a society that prizes sons. I AM MALALA will make you believe in the power of one person's voice to inspire change in the world.

Book excerpt: Back Story is a common sense guide to ending muscle tension, while managing destructive negative emotions, which will allow readers to break their chronic pain loop, and let their healing begin. - Helps heal back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and sciatica - Techniques are safe, simple and effective - Detailed exercises to reduce negative emotions - Methods to reduce physical tension - Clearly describes connection between back pain and the mind - What we create - we can cure. For two decades, the author suffered from chronic back pain. She consulted doctors, endured X-rays and MRIs, went to physical therapy, and saw chiropractors over and over again. She visited acupuncturists and sports medicine practitioners. She took up yoga, bought ergonomic chairs and mattresses, but the result was always the same--continued pain and suffering. Millions of people live with chronic back, shoulder, and muscle pain despite the best efforts of the medical community. Yet today, her pain is gone. Not just under control--completely cured. The author achieved this near-miraculous feat through mind-body synergy, the powerful interaction between physical health and the brain. After learning of the connection between emotional stress and physical ailments, Obermark developed a simple, noninvasive method for curing chronic musculoskeletal pain--no doctors or physical therapists required. Back Story reveals her simple solution to the back pain she'd endured for so many years, shared in the hope that others will be freed from their chronic pain. Of course, each case is different; but don't you owe it to yourself to try? Because everyone deserves a chance at a pain-free life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So many suffer abuse at the hands of a loved one. The abuse can be physical, sexual, emotional, or a combination of all three. When abuse occurs to a child, the results can be devastating to those who survive. For me, I began experiencing anxiety, depression, fear, and shame at a young age. With no one to help me, those emotions intensified as I grew older, resulting in numerous poor decisions. But God never forgot about me or abandoned me, even though it felt like it on many occasions. Instead, He sent the right people to me at the right time to help me work through the negative emotions and see Him in a different light. The Back Story was written to encourage and remind you that even though your current circumstances seem impossible to overcome, God has not forgotten you. He sees everything you are going through, and just as he did for me, he will send the right people to you at the right time. God loves you, and He wants what is best for you. Don't give up. Your victory is coming.

For 14 years, from 1919 to 1933, the US Navy stopped recruiting Blacks, and worked to phase out those who still remained, their duties taken over mostly by Filipinos. When, in 1933, Blacks were finally allowed back into the Navy, Lloyd Prewitt was one of the first to volunteer. His dedicated service, from 1933 to 1955, proved that Black sailors could perform whatever was asked of them in peacetime and combat, and paved the way for future generations of Black sailors. 33 photos.

Download or read book From Narratology to Computational Story Composition and Back written by L. Berov and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2023-03-10 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although both deal with narratives, the two disciplines of Narrative Theory (NT) and Computational Story Composition (CSC) rarely exchange insights and ideas or engage in collaborative research. The former has its roots in the humanities, and attempts to analyze literary texts to derive an understanding of the concept of narrative. The latter is in the domain of Artificial Intelligence, and investigates the autonomous composition of fictional narratives in a way that could be deemed creative. The two disciplines employ different research methodologies at contradistinct levels of abstraction, making simultaneous research difficult, while a close exchange between the two disciplines would undoubtedly be desirable, not least because of the complementary approach to their object of study. This book, From Narratology to Computational Story Composition and Back, describes an exploratory study in generative modeling, a research methodology proposed to address the methodological differences between the two disciplines and allow for simultaneous NT and CSC research. It demonstrates how implementing narratological theories as computational, generative models can lead to insights for NT, and how grounding computational representations of narrative in NT can help CSC systems to take over creative responsibilities. It is the interplay of these two strands that underscores the feasibility and utility of generative modeling. The book is divided into 6 chapters: an introduction, followed by chapters on plot, fictional characters, plot quality estimation, and computational creativity, wrapped up by a conclusion. The book will be of interest to all those working in the fields of narrative theory and computational creativity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The witching hour has arrived in bestselling author H. P. Mallory’s captivating and sexy new novel, starring the most dazzling denizen of the undead, Jolie Wilkins. Funny and feisty witch Jolie Wilkins is back—or rather, she’s back to her humble beginnings. Propelled into the past to her old Los Angeles fortune-telling shop, Jolie has no idea she possesses extraordinary powers, and she definitely doesn’t remember becoming Queen of the Underworld. But at least she has two incredibly sexy men vying for her affection: Rand Balfour, who looks very familiar, though Jolie can’t place his gorgeous face, and Sinjin Sinclair, who is tall, dark, and perfect . . . except for the fangs. Yet despite her steamy love life, Jolie can’t shake the sense that something is not quite right—like she’s stuck in a déjà vu gone terribly awry. As both men race against time—and each other—to win Jolie’s heart, the fate of the Underworld hangs in the balance. And Jolie’s decision can either restore order or create an absolute, drop-dead disaster.
