Chop Shop by Kathy Braidhill Pdf

From the "Pasedena Star News" investigative journalist who covered the chilling case comes the grisly true story of the Lamb Funeral Home scandal in southern California. Braidhill details the twisted greed and blind ambition that drove the founder's son, David Sconce, to mutilate corpses and illegally sell their body parts--including the gold in their teeth. Pleading guilty to 21 felony charges, Sconce spent four years in prison and is now nearly bankrupt. Includes 16 pages of never-before-published photos.

A Chip Shop in Poznań by Ben Aitken Pdf

'One of the funniest books of the year' - Paul Ross, talkRADIO WARNING: CONTAINS AN UNLIKELY IMMIGRANT, AN UNSUNG COUNTRY, A BUMPY ROMANCE, SEVERAL SHATTERED PRECONCEPTIONS, TRACES OF INSIGHT, A DOZEN NUNS AND A REFERENDUM. Not many Brits move to Poland to work in a fish and chip shop. Fewer still come back wanting to be a Member of the European Parliament. In 2016 Ben Aitken moved to Poland while he still could. It wasn't love that took him but curiosity: he wanted to know what the Poles in the UK had left behind. He flew to a place he'd never heard of and then accepted a job in a chip shop on the minimum wage. When he wasn't peeling potatoes he was on the road scratching the country's surface: he milked cows with a Eurosceptic farmer; missed the bus to Auschwitz; spent Christmas with complete strangers and went to Gdansk to learn how communism got the chop. By the year's end he had a better sense of what the Poles had turned their backs on - southern mountains, northern beaches, dumplings! - and an uncanny ability to bone cod. This is a candid, funny and offbeat tale of a year as an unlikely immigrant.

Lucky by John Bannon Pdf

Hello, fellow travelers in the magic wasteland.My journey has taken me from close-up tricks to strictly card tricks to "fractal" packet tricks to self-working card tricks to, recently, mentalism with playing cards, and back to card tricks. The adventure has been interesting, illuminating, and fun. Wouldn't have it any other way.The wasteland is a mixed bag of diverse preferences. In this volume, I appeal to those who have similar tastes and to those who are surveying the breadth and variety of this thing of ours, la cosa nostra, card magic.Here, we concentrate on an item from Mentalissimo, a preview if you will. We revisit and thoroughly ground in context, a past favorite from High Caliber, "Big Fat Bluff Aces," which may have been overlooked, but, likely would have fooled you.All in, eight of the ten discussions have not been in print before in any form. The other two are highlighted for your attention. By the way, all of the tricks use regular cards. Eight are essentially impromptu. One is a fractal packet trick. A mixed bag. But, hopefully, with some appeal.
