The Universe can be a curious place, often confounding to ordinary minds. But not to Silicent Fogg’s brilliant mathematical brain. As a magical mathematician, he thrives on the Universe’s befuddlements, claiming he can calculate everything out with his own special brand of magical math. So when Mr. P wakes convinced the whole Universe is out of whack, Silicent jumps at the chance to take the case and raise money to buy his granddaughter a new dress. Now he just needs to factor every possible outcome in a lopsided battle where success is, at best, improbable. Cue a silly vengeance scheme, the Universe’s most ruthless assassins, giant killer butterflies, a train heist, a rabbit costume, and a storyline too absurd to be anything but real. Well, real in the sense that it’s likely implausible, if you catch my drift.

The Routledge Companion to Radio and Podcast Studies by Mia Lindgren,Jason Loviglio Pdf
This comprehensive companion is a much-needed reference source for the expanding field of radio, audio, and podcast study, taking readers through a diverse range of essays examining the core questions and key debates surrounding radio practices, technologies, industries, policies, resources, histories, and relationships with audiences. Drawing together original essays from well-established and emerging scholars to conceptualize this multidisciplinary field, this book’s global perspective acknowledges radio’s enduring affinity with the local, historical relationship to the national, and its unpredictably transnational reach. In its capacious understanding of what constitutes radio, this collection also recognizes the latent time-and-space shifting possibilities of radio broadcasting, and of the myriad ways for audio to come to us 'live.' Chapters on terrestrial radio mingle with studies of podcasts and streaming audio, emphasizing continuities and innovations in form and content, delivery and reception, production cultures and aesthetics, reminding us that neither 'radio' nor 'podcasting' should be approached as static objects of analysis but rather as mutually constituting cultural forms. This cutting-edge and vibrant companion provides a rich resource for scholars and students of history, art theory, industry studies, journalism, media and communication, cultural studies, feminist analysis, and postcolonial studies.

Podcasting as an Intimate Medium by Alyn Euritt Pdf
This book delves into the notion of intimacy as a defining feature of podcasting, examining the concept of intimacy itself and how the public sphere explores the relationships created and maintained through podcasts. The book situates textual analysis of specific American podcasts within podcast criticism, monetization, and production advice. Through analysis of these sources' self-descriptions, the text builds a podcasting-specific framework for intimacy and uses that framework to interpret how podcasting imagines the connections it forms within communities. Instead of intimacy being inherent, the book argues that podcasting constructs intimacy and uses it to define the quality of its own mediation. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of New and Digital Media, Media Studies, Communication Studies, Journalism, Literature, Cultural Studies, and American Studies. The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a CreativeCommons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.

Dr Matt Bothwell takes us on a journey through the full spectrum of light and beyond, revealing what we have learned about the mysteries of the Universe. This book is a guide to the ninety-nine per cent of cosmic reality we can’t see – the Universe that is hidden, right in front of our eyes. It is also the endpoint of a scientific detective story thousands of years in the telling. It is a tour through our Invisible Universe.

Abusir, Egypt 1800s, 'Band of Peace' Pyramids: Karl Richard Lepsius listed more than sixty pyramids. We are now aware of more than one hundred such structures still hidden beneath the sand. "The late Egyptologist and indigenous wisdom keeper Ab'del Hakim Awyan, who was born in the village of Abusir near the Giza Plateau, stated Egyptians include twenty-two of these pyramids in what they call the 'Band of Peace' which includes Giza and other sites both north and south of that along the Nile." The Great Pyramid of Giza is located directly at the center of the earth’s landmass. During 2170-2144 BCE, the Descending Passage of the pyramid pointed to Alpha Draconis [the North/Pole star]. No other star has aligned with the passage since that time. They were not only constructed and aligned to mirror the positions of the stars, but designed to replicate the harmonic cavities within the human body. The Pyramids are sophisticated oscillation systems. Each chamber, tuned to a specific biologic frequency. The priests used the sound waves to restore the body of those suffering to a correct resonant balance. What they discovered about the power of resonance was only the beginning. The North Pole Admiral Byrd flew into the inner Earth while over Antarctica on February 19th, 1947, he was under the impression he had discovered the mythical city of Shambala. Mythical, being the keyword here. The Resolutionist’s Agenda: Three Hours Ago… There is a balance to everything, the duality of Yin & Yang. But magic comes in threes. The transition; usually signaled by the arrival of a comet, begins. The trials commence, the mythology finds its footing and builds, tempered in fire by the evil that wants them to fail. Wholesomeness and decency have fallen out of favor. They rankle the nightmares who prefer the world dark. Snow White's lookalike has been poisoned. Prince Charming was bankrupted and sold into bondage. It has all been building to here. The cast of Gathering & Persistence failed to comprehend the rules of the game. Every two thousand years, a transformation takes place, and the world changes. But for a smooth transition, the pieces had to be gathered. Temperaments grew and matured. A cast of wanderers, warriors, and wisdom seekers discovered. A new group, forged in fire, came together. But God has a sense of humor. It is not until you free yourself of all you thought you knew that you see it. Christmas is indeed a feeling, a gift that needs earning. Christmas is not a given, but there are protectors, and always, there are two. Santa Claus is not a person. It is a couple. A thousand individual pieces. A million clues. If we find our hearts, we get paradise again. You see, God works in mysterious ways. But it has given us free will and placed the clues in plain sight; our story, written and preserved in the library of forever. With any jigsaw puzzle, you start with the edges and follow the colors. The patterns begin to build with every piece laid until the bigger picture emerges. But God has a sense of humor, and it's not until you set yourself free that you see the depth of it. We find hope in our adolescent fables. We all have a destiny, however minor that may be. Something summoned, significant, consequential even, to some effect, that resides somewhere within our hearts. By completing my childhood promise, my life took a turn. What started as a debt paid grew into something beyond my wildest imagination. I hope I can do it justice. Christmas is coming. "When did you two grumpmuffins know?" "Leo told us after we initiated him." "He had been visiting her in dreams, so he knew your other half." "We set out to find the rest of the puzzle when M'olga tore us apart. You're not going to believe what we found." “Just so you know, Rudolph isn't red; he's an orange."
