Book Description
You've just settled down in a theatre to solve an audience-participation murder mystery. The narrator comes out and gives you a few "ins and outs" on what to look for in the play. The show starts and you meet Fat Daddy, a rich but vindictive southern gentleman with an equally conniving and scheming family. So you know who's going to die, right? But who will the murderer be? Will it be Sweet Mama, Daddy's pandering wife; Hyacinth, the daughter who's always cleaning the family firearms; Earl the worm, or his overly amorous wife, Savannah; or Clete, the sullen handyman who, for some reason, is in the will? Then Fat Daddy is discovered, dead as a hammer. Except the corpse isn't Daddy's it's the narrator's! The director comes on stage and the police arrive. Now you have to figure out which of the actors murdered the narrator. And not only are you questioning the cast, but they are questioning you! Yes, you are a suspect as well! This frantic mystery-comedy will have audiences guessing until the last clue is dropped and the last ham overacts. -- Publisher.

The Human Society
Author: Valentin Matcas
Publisher: Valentin Leonard Matcas
ISBN: 1370666454
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
Is the human society fair and fulfilling, as you learn in school, or it is harmful, with corrupt politicians, financial cartels, and major conspiracies spanning the world as you always notice? Both are the case, yet the human society improves gradually, despite of all corruption in the news, only that the media tends to highlight politicians in order to capture the masses, or you never watch the news. Because it is always a show, even in the news, while everybody is happy. But is society actually corrupt and harmful? The human society has always been exploitive, yet people tend to interact in any manner in the world, more or less humane, while it is meaningful to distinguish your own influence, exactly as it is. Would you like to learn the truth about the human society? Then study yourself and those around very well, since society is the direct interconnectivity of all human beings, with you in it. Therefore, you are the one defining society directly, at least in everything regarding you, and this is the case with everyone else. While everybody is relatively good intentioned in society, since we are very similar through our human nature and through all natural, living needs and meanings that we fulfill. Because humanity is never divided into the good and the bad, since everybody is good by having similar natural needs and meanings, only that people can become more exploitive while fulfilling consensual needs, as these make them be whatever their superiors, jurisdictions, and ideologies desire, stepping in this manner outside the actual human nature. And this is bad, since this is exactly how humans become unhuman, with all dreadful consequences manifesting in the world. Because humans fulfill mostly consensual needs, as orders and duties coming from above, but not their own, human needs, as everyone should. While this ends up defining the human society the most, changing it altogether into a social machine meant for profit and exploitation, and it should never be the case in a human world. Because there are two human societies to consider, the natural, intelligent human society that everyone seeks to have and maintain through their own living, natural needs and feelings, and the consensual society actually instated in the world, regardless if you want it or not. Throughout this book, we study how life and living human beings gather naturally to form classes of life and living societies meant to make life better, safer, meaningful, and therefore fulfilling. We also understand the current human society in its consensual structure and characteristics, in all aspects and from all perspectives. Furthermore, we identify and understand the various modes of society that life and the environment may demand, as we recognize what is meaningful among orders, agendas, and conspiracies already implemented or threatening to take place in the world, who the main social actors are, and how determined they remain in everything that they do in the human society. This helps you understand your own meaning in life, in society, and in the world, while understanding how your meaning is enhanced or altered by your own behavior and interconnectivity in life and in the world. If you seek to uncover and understand the human society exactly as it is and as it should be, this book is for you.

The Human Origins
Author: Valentin Matcas
Publisher: Valentin Leonard Matcas
ISBN: 1370947135
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
There is more to the human origins, development, intelligence, and civilization, than the epic debate Creationism versus Evolution, simply because there is more to the human condition than what authorities and ideologies want you to believe. Therefore, when you study the human origins, you have to search beyond the moment when the first humans had detached from the firmament or previous species, since there are other significant events in humanity’s lifespan and achievement defining its specific timeline. While you have to study everything, otherwise you risk understanding these significant events only from simplistic empirical or ideological perspectives, ending up learning what you already know, while following the crowd throughout unending debates. Since you want the accurate truth, because you already know all theories, beliefs, speculations, and debates regarding the human origins. And this is why, when you study the human origins, you expect to understand everything about the origins of life, the nature and origins of this world, the nature of the human higher self and intelligence, the origins and debut of the human consciousness and human intelligent reasoning, along with all details related to the Creator of this entire world, of Life, and of humanity. Additionally, it is relevant to know how all these affect you personally, and how they affect your family, your genetic line, and your nation, how your family and genetic line originate, where and how it happened, under what circumstances, and with what status and privileges for you, for your family, for your nation, and for the humankind. And this is exactly what we cover throughout this book, in all details and from all perspectives. This book studies the human origins, along with the origins of life, human intelligence, human species, human development, human society, human current civilization along with various past civilizations of Earth, integrating humans, their origins, and their original and current conditions in an elaborate comprehensive model.

You Have the Right to Remain Innocent
Author: James J. Duane
Publisher: Little a
ISBN: 9781503933392
Category : POLITICAL SCIENCE
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
An urgent, compact manifesto that will teach you how to protect your rights, your freedom, and your future when talking to police. Law professor James J. Duane became a viral sensation thanks to a 2008 lecture outlining the reasons why you should never agree to answer questions from the police--especially if you are innocent and wish to stay out of trouble with the law. In this timely, relevant, and pragmatic new book, he expands on that presentation, offering a vigorous defense of every citizen's constitutionally protected right to avoid self-incrimination. Getting a lawyer is not only the best policy, Professor Duane argues, it's also the advice law-enforcement professionals give their own kids. Using actual case histories of innocent men and women exonerated after decades in prison because of information they voluntarily gave to police, Professor Duane demonstrates the critical importance of a constitutional right not well or widely understood by the average American. Reflecting the most recent attitudes of the Supreme Court, Professor Duane argues that it is now even easier for police to use your own words against you. This lively and informative guide explains what everyone needs to know to protect themselves and those they love.

FINALIST FOR THE J.

You have to remember, he reminded me, that Harvard is older than the U.S. government. You have to remember because Harvard doesn't let you forget. 1969: the height of counterculture and the year universities would seek to curb the unruly spectacle of student protest; the winter that Harvard University would begin the tumultuous process of merging with Radcliffe, its all-female sister school; and the year that Jane Britton, an ambitious twenty-three-year-old graduate student in Harvard's Anthropology Department and daughter of Radcliffe Vice President J. Boyd Britton, would be found bludgeoned to death in her Cambridge, Massachusetts apartment. Forty years later, Becky Cooper a curious undergrad, will hear the first whispers of the story. In the first telling the body was nameless. The story was this: a Harvard student had had an affair with her professor, and the professor had murdered her in the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology because she'd threatened to talk about the affair. Though the rumor proves false, the story that unfolds, one that Cooper will follow for ten years, is even more complex: a tale of gender inequality in academia, a 'cowboy culture' among empowered male elites, the silencing effect of institutions, and our compulsion to rewrite the stories of female victims. We Keep the Dead Close is a memoir of mirrors, misogyny, and murder. It is at once a rumination on the violence and oppression that rules our revered institutions, a ghost story reflecting one young woman's past onto another's present, and a love story for a girl who was lost to history.

Until the Last One’s Found
Author: Curt Parton
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
Will some people be eternally lost? Or will God save everyone? Can a Christian be biblically faithful and believe in universal salvation? In this clear, easy to read book, Curt Parton examines the scriptural and theological foundations for our traditional view of hell and the case for universal restoration. The eternal conscious torment of the lost isn't nearly as biblically certain as has been thought, and the belief that all will be saved is surprisingly robust scripturally and theologically. Which view is more biblically sound? Which understanding is most in harmony with the gospel? A growing number of believers are rediscovering the historic Christian belief that God will ultimately reconcile and restore all of his creation to himself through Christ. What does it truly mean for God's love and truth to completely triumph over sin, death, and hell? This book explores the reasons Christians believe what they do about hell, what the Scriptures actually say about hell and judgment, the arguments for and against each view, and how this all relates to the biblical character of God. Discover why many believe God won't relent Until the Last One's Found.
