Serious Pig by John Thorne,Matt Lewis Thorne Pdf

In this collection of essays, John Thorne sets out to explore the origins of his identity as a cook, going "here" (the Maine coast, where he'd summered as a child and returned as an adult for a decade's sojourn), "there" (southern Louisiana, where he was captivated by Creole and Cajun cooking), and "everywhere" (where he provides a sympathetic reading of such national culinary icons as the hamburger, white bread, and American cheese, and sits down to a big bowl of Texas red). These intelligent, searching essays are a passionate meditation on food, character, and place.

A Pig Called Alice by Paul Heiney Pdf

'To call Alice "just another pig" would be the gravest insult.' Alice the Large Black pig was Paul Heiney's best friend, his confidante and his therapist. This is the story of their tempestuous relationship with all its ups-and-downs, from her arrival as a 'large, black and expensive' Christmas present for his wife to her last days as the matriarch of his traditional farm. In A Pig Called Alice, Heiney walks us through why lop-eared pigs are the best to raise (they can't see you coming), how to escape a sow that's decided you're her next mate (throw a bucket and run), and how, actually, pigs might have just got this whole 'life' situation sorted out.

Pigture Perfect: A Wish Novel by Jenny Goebel Pdf

From Alpaca My Bags author Jenny Goebel comes another heartwarming tale of friendship, loyalty, and finding your voice. Twelve-year-old Grace is desperate for a puppy. All she wants is someone to love -- and to love her back. Someone who won't disappear on her like her dad did. Someone who'll make her new stepfather's house feel like home. Christmas morning, Grace springs out of bed hopeful that her dreams are about to come true. But the present that awaits her isn't soft and furry. It doesn't have padded paws. And instead of a dark, wet nose, there's a flat, pink nose instead. It's not a puppy at all -- it's a PIG. Grace tries to make the best of the situation. She names the pig Bernard and dutifully learns how to care for him. But spending time with him is nothing like being with a dog. Bernard is awful at playing fetch and walking on a leash -- in fact, he's all around terrible at doing the things Grace dreamed of doing with a pet. But when a good friend lands in the hospital, Grace discovers that Bernard might have a special talent for making sick people feel better and that his calling might be as a certified therapy animal. Grace loves the idea of visiting patients with Bernard and bringing a smile to their faces during an otherwise tough time. But can Grace convince her skeptical family to get on board? Or will she and Bernard both end up out in the cold?

Nonviolence Is Not for Wimps by Ralph Dull Pdf

Although "How to Cope with a Hitler" was the beginning motivation to write this book, the inclusions "grew like Topsy." The themes threading their way through the pages are consistent even though interrupted by various personal experiences and musings. The themes are related a kinder and gentler everybody, active nonviolent solutions to problems, improved leadership, and improved followers. Some proposals in my musings may seem far-out, but if you can stay with me to the end, you may be satisfied. My audacity to even consider a Soviet nonviolent response to Hitler need not discredit the other musings herein. Gandhi urged his countrymen, as they entered jail for the cause of freedom, to go "as the bridegroom enters the bride's chamber that is, with a little trepidation but with great expectation." Such is the way we can approach the adventure of applied nonviolence. Many examples of effective nonviolence are included in this book as well as a few light-hearted comments. One approach is to lift up logic and practicality. If Will Rogers were still with us he would have a ball commenting on today's world, especially the lack of logic in our war-making. Anyway, we have Michael Moore. During my writing in early 2003, the air was full of war talk, so I couldn't resist doing three chapters on emotions before, during, and after the invasion of Iraq. To add to those musings my wife and I visited Iraq in June, 2003 to get a firsthand experience with the people. Wars are graphic examples of human failures and frailty, so this book is intended to give a nudge to Americans to think for themselves, create more friends, and lose some foes. I'm suggesting that is a more efficient way to reach our long-term goals than to bomb and kill and threaten. The book may be interesting, helpful, or provoking (entertaining) for anyone, including readers who differ with me. There are musings about what could be, throughout the book, and parts of my life experience related to the theme are included. Please forgive me for being a little flippant, intolerant occasionally, or letting you finish sentences at times. Ralph Dull

Inhabitable Infrastructures by CJ Lim Pdf

Inhabitable Infrastructures: Science fiction or urban future?, the follow up to Food City and Smartcities and Eco-Warriors, from one of the world’s leading urban design and architectural thinkers, explores the potential of climate change-related multi-use infrastructures that address the fundamental human requirements to protect, to provide and to participate. The stimulus for the infrastructures derives from postulated scenarios and processes gleaned from science fiction and futurology as well as the current body of scientific knowledge regarding changing environmental impacts on cities. Science fiction is interdisciplinary by nature, aggregates the past and present, and evaluates both lay opinions and professional strategies in an attempt to develop foresight and to map possible futures. The research culminates in the creation of innovative multi-use infrastructures and integrated self-sustaining support systems that meet the challenges posed through climate change and overpopulation, and the reciprocal benefits of simultaneously addressing the threat and the shaping of cities. J. G. Ballard has written that the psychological realm of science fiction is most valuable in its predictive function, and in projecting emotions into the future. The knowledge from the book is widely transferable, constituting both solutions and speculative visions of future urban environments. The book is indispensable reading for professionals and students in the fields of urban design, architecture, engineering and environmental socio-politics.
