Download or read book Not All Superheroes Wear Capes written by Quentin Kenihan and published by Hachette Australia. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quentin Kenihan is living proof that superheroes don't need capes, just the right attitude. FOREWORD BY RAY MARTIN When he was a kid, Quentin Kenihan loved Superman. Ironic, really. Quentin didn't need kryptonite to reveal his weakness - born with a rare bone disorder, osteogenesis imperfecta, his bones broke all on their own. When Quentin was seven, Mike Willesee made a documentary about him. Australians fell in love with his wit, and never-say-die attitude. Over the years he grew up before our eyes. But there was a dark side to his life. The true story was never told ... until now. A story of abandonment, drug addiction, dark days and thoughts of suicide. Battling through it all, Quentin's resilience is inspiring. Quentin is now determined to live life the best he can. Just turned 41, he is a filmmaker, stand-up comedian, radio host, actor and film critic; he's hung out with Angelina, accidentally ripped Jennifer Lopez's dress, talked sex with Jean-Claude Van Damme, appeared in MAD MAX and interviewed Julia Gillard, all the while showing that living in a wheelchair doesn't mean staying still. This is an unforgettable, brutally honest, at times heartbreaking memoir. Quentin Kenihan is living proof that superheroes don't need capes, just the right attitude! 'Quentin is a hero of mine. Probably the toughest man I have ever met. Read this book and reconsider how hard you think your life is. It is a liberating experience to face life through his eyes.' - RUSSELL CROWE

Book Synopsis Laugh with a Phrase or Truth by : John P. Hunter III
Download or read book Laugh with a Phrase or Truth written by John P. Hunter III and published by John P. Hunter III. This book was released on 2014-07-28 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed for people who are very open – minded, which is to say, people who are receptive to arguments or ideas. Phrases occur in our everyday ways of living, or in thoughts, which we would like to say but are refrained from saying because of embarrassment or it might be said in the wrong way, to offend, unintentionally. PHRASES are a word or a group of words forming a syntactic constituent with a single grammatical function. They can produce laughter, anger, or even bring across a point of view. However, one must understand that each individual has their own prospective of how these phrases may look for them. A right can be a wrong just as a wrong can be of a right. Reality is including all walks of life; not the inserting of what only sounds or looks good to a particular section of people. This would be like a person going swimming but yet doesn’t get wet. ALL kinds of people whether good or bad make up society. This book is limited of vulgarity

Book Synopsis Do The Gods Wear Capes? by : Ben Saunders
Download or read book Do The Gods Wear Capes? written by Ben Saunders and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2011-06-02 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brash, bold, and sometimes brutal, superheroes might seem to epitomize modern pop-culture at its most melodramatic and mindless. But according to Ben Saunders, the appeal of the superhero is fundamentally metaphysical - even spiritual - in nature. In chapter-length analyses of the early comic book adventures of Superman, Wonder Woman, Spider-Man, and Iron-Man, Saunders explores a number of complex philosophical and theological issues, including: the problem of evil; the will-to-power; the tension between intimacy and vulnerability; and the challenge of love, in the face of mortality. He concludes that comic book fantasies of the superhuman ironically reveal more than we might care to admit about our human limitations, even as they expose the falsehood of the characteristically modern opposition between religion and science. Clearly and passionately written, this insightful and at times exhilarating book should delight all readers who believe in the redemptive capacity of the imagination, regardless of whether they consider themselves comic book fans.

Book Synopsis The Encyclopedia of New York by : The Editors of New York Magazine
Download or read book The Encyclopedia of New York written by The Editors of New York Magazine and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-10-20 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The must-have guide to pop culture, history, and world-changing ideas that started in New York City, from the magazine at the center of it all. Since its founding in 1624, New York City has been a place that creates things. What began as a trading post for beaver pelts soon transformed into a hub of technological, social, and cultural innovation—but beyond fostering literal inventions like the elevator (inside Cooper Union in 1853), Q-tips (by Polish immigrant Leo Gerstenzang in 1923), General Tso’s chicken (reimagined for American tastes in the 1970s by one of its Hunanese creators), the singles bar (1965 on the Upper East Side), and Scrabble (1931 in Jackson Heights), the city has given birth to or perfected idioms, forms, and ways of thinking that have changed the world, from Abstract Expressionism to Broadway, baseball to hip-hop, news blogs to neoconservatism to the concept of “downtown.” Those creations and more are all collected in The Encyclopedia of New York, an A-to-Z compendium of unexpected origin stories, hidden histories, and useful guides to the greatest city in the world, compiled by the editors of New York Magazine (a city invention itself, since 1968) and featuring contributions from Rebecca Traister, Jerry Saltz, Frank Rich, Jonathan Chait, Rhonda Garelick, Kathryn VanArendonk, Christopher Bonanos, and more. Here you will find something fascinating and uniquely New York on every page: a history of the city’s skyline, accompanied by a tour guide’s list of the best things about every observation deck; the development of positive thinking and punk music; appreciations of seltzer and alternate-side-of-the-street parking; the oddest object to be found at Ripley’s Believe It or Not!; musical theater next to muckracking and mugging; and the unbelievable revelation that English muffins were created on...West Twentieth Street. Whether you are a lifelong resident, a curious newcomer, or an armchair traveler, this is the guidebook you’ll need, straight from the people who know New York best.

She suffers from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and the public revelation of her relationship with Atlas has caused her popularity to nose-dive.To complicate things, the Teatime Anarchist's intervention has changed the course of events--leaving her with lots of knowledge about the way the future was before the Big One, a complete future-history that is now out of date. And just when she thinks she's getting a handle on things, unfolding events (a bank-robbery and a horrific murder) show that one of the nastier pieces of the old future isn't so out of date after all; unless she solves a murder before it happens, Blackstone is going to die.

Download or read book NEPHILIM written by David Lucero and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-10-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Summary of Nephilim: Genesis By David Lucero The novel Nephilim: Genesis cannot be easily summarized. It’s a book about friendship, faith, destiny, and discovery. But it is so much more than that as well. Of course, there are main characters. Villains, heroes, supporting characters, those are the usual items found in a fiction book. There is a plot, of course, and tons of inspirations. But to break down the novel would not do it justice. To say that Alexander Luciano is the main character is just putting him into a role that he doesn’t fit easily into. A square peg in a round hole, so to speak. The Nephilim themselves are not easily described either. If you take the literal translations of them from the Old Testament, then they were giants born of mortal women who had been seduced by fallen angels. But they were briefly mentioned, almost impossible to spot if you’re not looking for them, and that leaves a vast amount of room for interpretation. I prefer to think of Nephilim as sons and daughters that, yes, were half-human/half-angels, but also much more than that. They were influential, giants not in the literal sense, but metaphorically, much as some people are “giants of industry.” These are not literally tall men or women, they are people that have shaped our commercial and financial institutions. They are individuals that have formed the basis of our society in such a way that we look up to them in reverence. So to say Nephilim are in that vein might be more accurate. They are “giants of destiny” if you will, leaders and warriors and thinkers. They are people that have walked with the gods and kept stride. They are idols and icons. Does that mean that I think Alexander Luciano is an icon? Yes, in a sense. He is what I wish I could be, not because he is almost supernatural, but because he has discovered his destiny and has embraced it with all his heart and soul. He is a shining example of what I would like to be. He is an angel, true, but he is still only a man. The novel Nephilim: Genesis was a long work in progress. I wrote several drafts, went through so many new characters and new plots that I can’t even remember all of them. It was crafted, not written, and I’m very proud of it. The characters in the book: Avatar, Sage, Epic, Arcadia, Magus, and Kheiron, are not just the characters I created for the book, they are characters that grew out of friendship, faith, and dedication. I didn’t write them, they came to life and I merely translated them onto the written page. Like so many stories in existence, there is sadness, happiness, pain, and joy in this novel. Some of it was my idea, some of it was not. And I don’t mean that I took other people’s ideas, but merely that the story became what it is because I was open to the possibility that this story was not entirely something I could create. I let the story go where it wanted to go, and I just tried to type fast enough to keep up. Alexander Luciano is a caring young man, but stubborn. He is a successful businessman. He is a son, a lover, a fighter. He is strong, brave, and a quick thinker. I am not any of these things entirely, but he is me. He is the idol I look up to. He is the “giant” in my storytelling. But all of the characters are important to me. Some of them were so easy to come up with, it was like a thunderbolt to my brain when I realized I was stupid for never thinking of them before. Some of them crept in and came to life and I never saw them coming. If and when you read the novel, I hope you find your own “giant” to look up to. Someone you wish you could be. It might not be Alexander Luciano, it might
Download or read book Heroes in the Night written by Tea Krulos and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Watchman didn't arrive in a Batmobile but drove a tan, four-door Pontiac. He was in costume, of course—a trench coat, motorcycle gloves, army boots, a domino mask, and a red hooded sweatshirt emblazoned with a W logo. Journalist Tea Krulos had spoken to him over the phone but never face-to-mask. By the end of the interview, he wasn't sure if the Watchman was delightfully eccentric or completely crazy. But he was going to find out. Heroes in the Night traces Krulos's journey into the strange subculture of Real Life Superheroes, random citizens who have adopted comic book&–style personas and hit the streets to fight injustice. Some concentrate on humanitarian or activist missions—helping the homeless, gathering donations for food banks, or delivering toys to children—while others actively patrol their neighborhoods looking for crime to fight. By day, these modern Clark Kents work as dishwashers, pencil pushers, and executives in Fortune 500 companies. But by night, only the Shadow knows. Well, the Shadow and Tea Krulos. Through historical research, extensive interviews, and many long hours walking patrol in Brooklyn, Seattle, San Diego, Minneapolis, and Vancouver, British Columbia, Krulos discovered what being a RLSH is all about. He shares not only their shining, triumphant moments but some of their ill-advised, terrifying disasters as well. It's all part of the life of a superhero. As the Watchman explains, &“If everyone made little changes in what they did, gave a little more to charity, watched out for their neighbors, we wouldn't have the problems that we have.&”
