Authors: Alexander Peloquin. Paperback, 96 pagesPublisher: G. I. A. Publications, Inc., Vivant Publications Publication Date: 1974 Reviews :

"..... What I have tried to do in LYRIC LITURGY is to create a blueprint for making the liturgy a living assertion against death.

The Elusive Mrs. Pollifax, By Dorothy Gilman, Unabridged 5 Audio Cassettes, Narrated By Barbara Rosenblat
Authors: Dorothy Gilman. Audio Cassette, 5 pagesPublisher: Recorded Books, Inc. Publication Date: 1990 Edition: Unabridged 5 Audio Cassettes, 6.5 Hours Reviews :

"THE ELUSIVE MRS. POLLIFAX By Dorothy Gilman, Narrated by Barbara Rosenblat." "Mrs. Pollifax has a beautiful new hat, an event worthy of the attention of the Garden Club in New Brunswick. But only Mrs. P. and that nice Mr. Carstaiirs at CIA Headquarters in Langley, Virginia, know it conceals not only Mrs. P's remarkable brain but eight false passports. All Mrs. Pollifax has to do is to deliver them to a man called Tsanko in Bulgaris. Simple. But, as fans and followers of the exquisite Mrs. P. know by now, nothing is ever plainly simple nor ever less than wildly adventurous: using fireworks, a bow and arrow, and a gaggle of geese, Mrs. Pollifax must engineer an escape from a Bulgarian prison---a little more problematic than smuggling some passports... During the night Mrs. Pollifax experienced a nightmare in which she was lying in bed and being ovserved... burglar who had entered her room. As she fought back to consciousness she discovered that she was indeed in bed, it was night and a man was standing at the foot of the bed looking down at her. He was clearly silhouetted against the window. "Mrs. Pollifax waited, breath suspended, for the man to identify himself as Tsanko. He did not. He moved stealthily away from the foot of the bed and went toward the closet, where he turned on a small flashlight. He leaned over the lock, his back to her. "If he wasn't Tsanko, she thought indignantly, then he must be a plain, old-fashioned burglar, and without stopping to consider the risks Mrs. Pollifax slid out of her bed and stood up. Carefully tiptoeing along the wall she came up behind the man, flattened her right hand and delivered a medium karate chop---at least she hoped it was only a medium below---to the side of his neck and watched him sink to the floor." ---from The Elusive Mr. Pollifax [from back of casecover]...

Follow-Up: Apple vs. P2P (The Digital Music Weblog) In all my years covering digital music, I've learned to scorn the mainstream media's parroting of RIAA-promoted statistics, memes, alarmist conclusions, and agenda-driven rhetoric. The intersection of digital technology with analog art is a complicated business, and many journalists, editors, and publishers just don't bother getting even a basic grip on facts, or developing any discrimination in their perception of news. But only rarely does a "news" story get as much

The Dark Menace of the Universe
Authors: Tom Filsinger. Paperback, 225 pagesPublisher: Brust Books Publication Date: 2005-07-12 Reviews :

The Dark Menace of the Universe is a memoir on creativity written by Tom Filsinger, an Associate Professor of Psychology and game industry entrepreneur. The book is an analysis of creativity as it relates to rebellion and culture. In The Dark Menace of the Universe, Filsinger tells the inside story of how he created card games like Champions of the Galaxy and Legends of Wrestling. He discusses how he proposed a basic version of his game to the World Wrestling Federation in 1984 only to be rejected in favor of a Milton Bradley game, and how this rejection inadvertently led to the creation and success of Champions of the Galaxy. In addition to being the owner of a game company, Filsinger is also an Associate Professor of Psychology in Jamestown, New York. In The Dark Menace of the Universe he brings together his scholarly interests and game entrepreneurship. “I use the expression, 'The Dark Menace of the Universe,' to refer to creativity in general. Creative people are often misunderstood by others and I analyze why this might be the case.” Filsinger uses examples from the lives of famous creators to shed light on his subject, including anecdotes from writer Stephen King, jazz musician Jelly Roll Morton, cartoonist Gary Larson, and others....

Authors: Paul A. Strassmann. Perfect Paperback, 178 pagesPublisher: The Information Economics Press Publication Date: 2008-06-05 Edition: First Reviews :

The Computers Nobody Wanted is a history of an ill-conceived acquisition, in 1969, of Xerox's entry into the computer business to its abandonment in 1974. The book also traces ambitious investments in a computer workstation - the STAR computer - from conception in 1973 to its dissolution in 1984.
