From RABBIT EARS To TELEVISION ANTENNAS by Richard Barton Pdf

Every term in the History of Telecom class I teach at Oregon State University, I always ask for a show of hands from students: "How many of you get your TV from an antenna?" I ask. "Not a satellite dish, an antenna. Rabbit ears, or a big thing on the roof." I usually see two or three hands, out of a class of 70 students. The fact is, broadcast TV is a ghost of its former self. Cable TV is how almost everyone gets his or her television these days. Cable TV - CATV, or "Community Antenna Television" - is a huge industry today. And it all started, believe it or not, with a guy on a rooftop in Astoria, Oregon, pursuing the sweet and simple goal of doing something nice for his wife. Here's how it happened:

Available Light by Phillip Gardner Pdf

Eighteen tragicomic short stories that explore love, tragedy, and loss. As he disassembles an infant’s nursery, a father struggles for ways to tell his young daughter her brother is dead; a boy learns the truth about his parents’ divorce; an out of work rock musician finds himself custodian of an abandoned child; a wife who sets out to find her husband’s secret lover discovers a secret she’s kept from herself; while settling their estranged father’s estate, adult sisters encounter a side of their parents they never knew; a ne’er-do-well uncle pays the price for putting his young nephew’s life at risk; a widow discovers that her need for love lives beyond the man she loved; a fifteen-year-old boy seeks to know his older brother who is away at war. Although the characters often lack the navigational tools for finding and sustaining meaningful love, they all courageously follow the path illuminated by whatever light is available to them.

Speaking of Animals by Robert Palmatier Pdf

No other nonhuman source has served as the basis for more metaphors than animals. Speaking of Animals is a dictionary of animal metaphors that are current in American English. It is comprehensive, historical, and metaphor-based. Each entry refers to the other dictionaries that catalog that same metaphor, and the dates of first appearance in writing are supplied, where possible, for both the metaphor and the name of the source. The main text is organized alphabetically by metaphor rather than by animal or animal behavior; all the metaphors are classified according to their animal source in a list at the end of the book. An animal metaphor is a word, phrase, or sentence that expresses a resemblance or similarity between someone or something and a particular animal or animal class. True metaphors are single words, such as the noun tiger, the verb hog, and the adjective chicken. Phrasal metaphors combine true metaphors with other words, such as blind tiger, hog the road, and chicken colonel. Other animal metaphors take the form of similes, such as like rats leaving a sinking ship and prickly as a hedgehog. Still others take the form of proverbs, such as Don't count your chickens before they hatch and Let sleeping dogs lie. The horse is the animal most frequently referred to in metaphors, followed closely by the dog. The Bible is the most prolific literary source of animal metaphors, followed closely by Shakespeare.
