Under The Belly of the Beast
What is Beauty? What makes a Beast? Cori Bratby-Rudd's Under The Belly of the Beast shatters the fanciful conventions of dehumanization and desire through a collective bombardment of queer writers, trans writers, writers of color-those for whom defining beauty and beast is an everyday battle for survival, identity, and love. Under The Belly of the Beast is no make-believe fairy tale, but something far more brilliant and fantastic: a relentless elegy for the human, authentic, and true.

The Diary of Stella Pelton - Part 2
Stella Pelton kept a diary from 1958, when she was a 35-year old mother of four living in Ethan, South Dakota, through 1996, when she died of ovarian cancer at age 73, in Seattle, Washington. In this Part 2, Stella begins her adventures as a world traveler. She visits the Netherlands, Italy, Yugoslavia, Israel, Brazil, Ireland, Germany, and England, along with many cities in the United States.

Stella retires after working for 20 years in the airline industry and then devotes more time to serving others in her church. In 1991, she learns that she has ovarian cancer, and undergoes several phases of chemotherapy. Stella passes away in 1996 at the age of 73, after having spent her life making the world a better place.
Wege aus dem Burnout
Der Mensch und die an maximaler Gewinnoptimierung ausgerichtete deutsche Industrie stehen hier im Mittelpunkt. Kennzeichen einer durch eine von absoluter Dominanz des ?konomischen gepr瓣gten Wirtschaft sind grenzenlose Arbeitsverdichtung und unentwegte Optimierung von Arbeitsabl瓣ufen. Damit sind nur einige der Folterinstrumente einer rastlosen Jagd nach Effektivit瓣t genannt. Da, wo F羹hrungsverhalten von Vorgesetzten nicht getragen wird durch Achtung, Wertsch瓣tzung, Ehrlichkeit, Weisheit, Respekt, Zuverl瓣ssigkeit, da, wo Integrit瓣t nicht als eine unabdingbare Lebenseinstellung gelebt wird, entpuppt sich F羹hrungskompetenz als L羹ge des gesamten Daseins. Meine wesentlichen Thesen lauten: Die absolute Dominanz des ?konomischen muss zur羹ckgefahren werden. - Der Mensch muss wieder im Mittelpunkt des wirtschaftlichen Denkens und Handelns stehen. - Menschen mit F羹hrungsaufgaben m羹ssen ihr Handeln und Agieren aus einem gelebten Humanismus heraus verstehen und betreiben. - Philanthropie, Selbstdistanzierung
Herbert Herhaus
13. Mai 1945 Zur羹ck in Bielstein wollte ich die alte Getreidem羹hle meines Vaters in Gang bringen und wurde dabei von den Amerikanern aufgegriffen, mit der Begr羹ndung, ich bek瓣me neue Papiere. Bisher hatte ich nur den Entlassungsschein der Deutschen Wehrmacht. Wahrscheinlich h瓣tte ich mir viel ?rger erspart, wenn ich misstrauischer gewesen w瓣re. Aber mein Weg war offenbar vorherbestimmt und von Gott, meinem Vater, festgelegt. Und damit begann das ganze Elend. Eingesperrt in einem Raum des Postamtes in Bielstein. Mir schwante nichts Gutes... Der Kriegsheimkehrer Herbert Herhaus, beschreibt in diesem Buch sehr kurzweilig aber detailreich den Transport und die Umst瓣nde im Lager sowie seine Flucht von den Rheinwiesen bei Wesel.
No. 91/92
A love letter to Paris and a meditation on how it has changed in two decades, evolving from the twentieth century into the twenty-first, from analog to digital. Your telephone is precious. It may be envied. We recommend vigilance when using it in public. --Paris bus public notice In fall 2014 Lauren Elkin began keeping a diary of her bus commutes in the Notes app on her iPhone 5c, writing down the interesting things and people she saw in a Perecquian homage to Bus Lines 91 and 92, which she took from her apartment in the 5th Arrondissement to her teaching job in the 7th. Reading the notice, she decided to be vigilant when using her phone: she would carry out a public transport vigil, using it to take in the world around her and notice all the things she would miss if she continued using it the way she had been, the way everyone does--to surf the web, check social media, maintain her daily sense of self through digital interaction. Her goal became to observe the world through the screen of her phone, rather than using her phone to distract from the world. During the course of that academic year, the Charlie Hebdo attacks occurred and Elkin had an ectopic pregnancy, requiring emergency surgery. At that point, her diary of dailiness became a study of the counterpoint between the everyday and the Event, mediated through early twenty-first century technology, and observed from the height of a bus seat. No. 91/92 is a love letter to Paris, and a meditation on how it has changed in the two decades the author has lived there, evolving from the twentieth century into the twenty-first, from analog to digital.

Shimmer Spring
Radiance liberates us from the murkiness. One must remember, it's the shimmer that sustains lucency. It is imperative to recognize the light that allows a respite from prevailing darkness. "Light that emanates from the core of gloom is your glow. Goodness, wide-awake among all discord, is your truth." - Tagore's lyrics have been the most significant motivation as Kiriti Sengupta, the editor, conceived Shimmer Spring: prose and poetry. He was curious to explore how contemporary writers derive and disperse light. After all, light is a common metaphor for all that is good, illumining, enchanting, truthful, or exuberant.
Tiny Notes to My Best Friend
Tiny Notes to My Best Friend came from a tradition that the author's family practiced for many years, and that was to write their notes to each other in one dedicated little notebook, instead of on pieces of paper or cards that would get thrown away. A tiny notebook was left on the kitchen counter each day, for anyone to write a note before leaving for work, school, or at any other time during the day. In an age of digital texts and social media posts, this is a much loved way to capture these treasured interactions in a way that can be read for generations to come. You will love passing your book of Tiny Notes back and forth between yourself and your best friend! Use this as a way to communicate if distance separates you by mailing it to one another, hand it off between classes if you are in school together, or take it along as your companion when you travel together on that trip of a lifetime! With Tiny Notes to My Best Friend, the author brings a beloved family tradition to you and your best friend, so that you may keep each and every tiny note for years to come. Look for additional books in the Tiny Notes Series!

Stella
Die neue Psychologin hatte offensichtlich die Ursache des ?bels erkannt. Meine Lebenspartnerin konnte sich wieder unter Menschen vorstellen. Auch wenn es weiterhin unerwartete Ereignisse gab, die einen R羹ckschlag nahelegten. Sie hielt sich ganz gut, doch irgendwann kam auch bei ihr der Moment, wo sie anfing zu heulen. Die Medikamente waren gut und halfen ein St羹ck weit, die Symptome zu lindern. Leider konnten sie meine Lebenspartnerin nicht heilen. Das Problem war immer noch da, und es tickte wie eine Zeitbombe. Keiner konnte genau sagen, wann der n瓣chste Anfall seinen Anfang nahm. Eine wahre Geschichte um eine starke Frau, die dank einer sehr ungew繹hnlichen Therapie wieder ins Leben fand.
Historias desde el Sexilio
Escritos desde el Sexilio es una colecci籀n de cuentos narrados a trav矇s de la experiencia y la intimidad de las disidencias sexuales en Panam獺. Gracias al narrar de Juan R穩os Vega, esta regi籀n cuenta con una invitaci籀n para adentrarse en su ambiente de sentimientos y erotismos rebeldes e ileg穩timos. Con una sensibilidad que capta la consciencia vagabunda de quienes residen en los m獺rgenes de la naci籀n, Escritos rememora pasiones fronterizas, furtivas, inesperadas, y muchas veces innombrables. Cada uno de los cuentos revela aquellas capas carnales donde la sexualidad paname簽a se forj籀, en el 繳ltimo cuarto del siglo veinte, ya no necesariamente en las s獺banas sino en los dispositivos de prohibici籀n y (auto)castigo, en visitas forzadas a m矇dicos que promovieron la conversi籀n de homosexuales, en el abandono familiar cuando la condici籀n era inocultable, o en la destituci籀n social cuando la moral cristiana conden籀 a quienes padecieron la mortalidad del sida. Escritos nos indica, casi en una seducci籀n inc籀moda, pero a la misma vez cautivante, que los erotismos exiliados buscaron afirmaci籀n a繳n en los rincones sinuosos e inh籀spitos de aquellos dolores, traumas, y soledades.

In Kriegsgefangenschaft
Nach fast 10j瓣hriger Abwesenheit in Krieg und Gefangenschaft kehrte Karl Pausch (1911-1996) kurz vor Weihnachten 1949 zu seiner Familie zur羹ck. Als einziges Mitbringsel 羹bergab er der Familie ein kleines, in schwarzes Kunstleder gebundenes B羹chlein, das er unter Gefahren durch die Kontrollen gerettet hatte. Das 'Taschenbuch', wie er es selbst bezeichnete, ist eine Art Tagebuch des Jahres 1947 in russischer Kriegsgefangenschaft. Darstellt werden in Bild und Text Alltagssituationen des Lagerlebens und der Zwangsarbeit. Aber auch Reflexionen 羹ber die Hintergr羹nde und Lebensumst瓣nde des Krieges sowie die stets pr瓣senten Gedanken an die zur羹ckgebliebene Familie und die Situation in der Heimat sind Gegenstand der Darstellung. Gedanken, die wohl auch die heutigen Fl羹chtlinge aus den Kriegs- und Krisenregionen bewegen. Anders als bei Briefen, Tageb羹chern oder sonstigen Aufzeichnungen besteht die Besonderheit des B瓣ndchens aber darin, dass der gesamte (Flie?-)Text in einer gezeichneten Schrift angelegt ist. In Einheit mit einer Vielzahl von Vignetten, kleineren und ganzseitigen Zeichnungen bildet das Ganze eine Art Buch-Kunstwerk. Der Herausgeber versucht, die Zeit, von der das 'Taschenbuch' handelt, in den Rahmen eines gelebten Lebens zu stellen: Neben Erinnerungsst羹cken aus dem Nachlass des Autors schien es sinnvoll, Erl瓣uterungen und eigene Erinnerungen an die Person und die damaligen Lebensumst瓣nde beizutragen.
Un Soffitto Di Cenere
Questo libro 癡 il secondo manuale-racconto sulla vita contemporanea e diario personale scritto da me. La vera gioia che il nostro tempo restituisce tramite le esperienze, non un ritrovato delle nuove tecnologie ma una funzione in diversi periodi storici e geologici, cosa lo ha gi? creato secondo delle spiegazioni sugli avvenimenti e le loro soluzioni. Una passeggiata alla luce del Sole dei fatti e degli incanti, a volte mai svelati, forse troppo nuovi e insoliti, in una collettivit? che gi? da tempo ne presenta delle necessita, come di una voce pi羅 ampia e slanciata, uno strumento per insistere meglio la giornata, davvero 癡 non in sogno.Diario scritto in modo semplice per una forma artistica testuale a giustificare anche un'esperienza iniziale e incolta odierna. In stile l'Ulisse di James Joyce 癡 un libro di bene come forma di vita, di arte del presente, fondamentale per esistere liberi, vivi 癡 di certo. Il periodo delle sedici lettere contenute raggiunge d'aprile 2007 a ottobre 2008.
Il Bene E Il Male, Memorie
Questo libro 癡 il mio primo manuale sull'essere contemporaneo, e diario personale scritto da me. La calma del benessere, delle invenzioni. Gli aspetti tridimensionali degli oggetti concreti e umani, per una ricerca nel pensiero individuale. Un'opera che libera da impegni stilistici, gli errori sono di tutti, il presente deve essere rappresentato ma, senza la paura di aver realizzato un errore pi羅 grande del silenzio prima accettato. Scegliendo un discorso che promette una soluzione giornaliera, definitiva all'arte retorica-storica. Descrive le mie esperienze, fantasiosamente le memorie di un bene nella terra dei mali. Diario scritto in modo semplice, una forma testuale a colmare anche un'assenza d'informazioni complete sul diritto al bene, che caratterizza un'insensibilit? nelle pubblicazioni pubbliche e giornalistiche. Un fenotipo comprensivo di oggettivit? moderne materiali, cristiane e arabe. Vuole rappresentare una porta verso il futuro, un partito nuovo. Il periodo delle diciotto lettere contenute raggiunge d'agosto 2005 a marzo 2007. Buona lettura, Gerardo D'Orrico

The Ancestors of Aaron Nordstrom
Doing genealogy is a life-time pursuit and can at times be very difficult; especially where adoptions are involved and little information is available about birth parents. Breaking through those barriers can be illuminating, especially when they lead to learning more about your ancestors and their origins than a DNA test can provide. Vincent Michael's genealogy is one of those that is extremely challenging but well worth the effort. Beginning in Jacksonville, Illinois where his family has lived for generations, it travels back through time to Scotland, Ireland, England, Wales, France and Switzerland. While the majority of the names are unfamiliar to historians and represent the hard working people who built the American nation, other names such as Henry 1, King of England, Charlemagne, Martel and Baldwin, the Count of Flanders are very familiar. For those familiar with Templar Knights research, there are also several Knights Templars sprinkled throughout the lineage in the de Montfort, Montdidier and Flanders lines. His ancestors came to the Americas as early as 1600, some as indentured servants, others as part of the aristocracy searching for new opportunities. They served in the Revolutionary War, the Civil War and both World War 1 and 2. One of his ancestral families was the Goines family, descended from the first Negro freeman in America. Another stepped off of the Mayflower, and another was a Moravian soldier who stayed behind after the Revolutionary War. Regardless of where they came from, they were uniquely American in that they worked hard to establish their families and businesses and soon became an important part of the national fabric. While there are more than 100 generations represented here, extending back to Biblical times through Anna of Arimathea and the Kings of Ireland, there are still endless opportunities for original research. I hope that this give future researchers a blueprint to continue their own research.

A Moment with Grace
Life can only truly be celebrated when the lamentation of its loss has been fully embraced. A Moment with Grace follows one man's beautiful, heartbreaking, and redemptive journey on his quest to find the meaning of life. Travelling throughout Greece, France, and England, he explores the heights of love and experiences the depths of grief, at times with his beloved Grace by his side, and at times alone. His diary is his constant companion, offering a place for exploration, reflection, questions, and sanctuary. Its pages hold poetry, love letters, and a blossoming philosophy of life, love, and loss. Are the questions of love and loss unanswerable? Perhaps we are all just at the mercy of fate or divine forces. Yet, meaning might be found if we look in the right places, if we are open to the wisdom born of our experiences....
It's Already Us In Ten Minutes
This diary is the third book written by me, an exploration of urban and suburban environments to observe humans and modern objects. Representations in philosophical or mathematical form in order to find the right amount of motion, the proof that good is a higher feeling than an evil, the right repetition of always the same things to confirm that here one cannot say the false is even less realize it. A certain practicality that can be associated with a manual on socio-political rights, then the different forms of exit from a modern unhealthy or incorporeal being. The becoming of one`s own experiences, of one`s own dreams in their reality, without basic problems to confirm an overall human evidence, finally the transfer of social and anthropic material so much contested in these years after the year two thousand. The period of the twenty-one letters contained reaches from December 2008 to July 2010.

The second part covers a four month period in 2019, by which time the author has retired and is facing some of his own health challenges.

The book has helped me feel more comfortable and open with her." This granddaughter liked her book so much I zerox the pages as I add them and she keeps them in a folder.The writings challenge me to identify and connect with each grandchild around their interests and talents. It is a privilege to watch their physical and spiritual growth and to anticipate what their lives will look like as they reach adulthood.Praying the scriptures over them is an important part of the journal as I hope in years to come they will realize answers in their lives as a result of the prayers prayed for them.
Liebe, Arbeit, Gottvertrauen
Der lange Weg der Vertreibung aus der Heimat Im Mittelpunkt der Geschichte steht die Vertreibung der Familie Jakob aus Seitendorf, einem Dorf in der Oberlausitz 繹stlich der Nei?e, am 22. Juni 1945. Liesbeth und Johann Jakob hatten sieben Kinder, die vor und w瓣hrend des zweiten Weltkrieges geboren wurden. Der Vater Johann kam nicht aus dem Krieg zur羹ck, galt lange Zeit als vermisst, so dass Liesbeth am Tag der Vertreibung auf sich allein gestellt war. Zum Gl羹ck hatte sie ihre Mutter an der Seite, die in den kommenden schweren Jahren in Wittgendorf eine gro?e Hilfe war. Es werden Begebenheiten aus der Kinder- und Jugendzeit von Liesbeth Kretschmer und Johann Jakob in den Jahren zwischen den beiden Weltkriegen erz瓣hlt, als sie sich kennenlernten und schlie?lich im Jahr 1931 den Bund f羹rs Leben schlossen. Im Hauptteil des Buches erz瓣hlen vier Kinder von Johann und Liesbeth Jakob ihre Erlebnisse aus der Zeit vor und nach der Vertreibung aus dem Heimatdorf Seitendorf. Es sind authentische und teilweise sehr emotionale Erfahrungen, die jeder der Zeitzeugen aus seiner ganz pers繹nlichen Sicht beschreibt.

A black American baby handed over from her mama found the arms of auntie perfect. The child was a girl-child born a boy. Auntie loved her as she was as did granny. Mama eventually did too.

Coronavirus - Mein sechstes Corona-Krise TagebuchMein L瓣cheln verschwindet
Coronavirus - Mein sechstes Corona-Krise Tagebuch von Julius Klain: Die Corona-Krise hat sich seit ihrem versch瓣rften Beginn im M瓣rz 2020 stets weiterentwickelt und sich permanent ver瓣ndert. Nach nunmehr sieben Wochen hat sich das Coronavirus an sich f羹r Julius Klain und seine Familie als gesundheitlich deutlich weniger bedrohlich herausgestellt, als er zun瓣chst bef羹rchtet hat. Zum Gl羹ck! Dennoch f羹hlt sich die die in diesem Tagebuch beschriebene Phase zwischen dem 22. und dem 30. April f羹r ihn noch lange nicht so an, als sei bereits alles wieder gut. Im Gegenteil. Er und seine Familie befinden sich noch immer fest im Klammergriff dieser Ausnahmesituation und es sind inzwischen zus瓣tzliche Herausforderungen aufgetaucht, die Julius Sorgen bereiten und die sein L瓣cheln verschwinden lassen.

He had two options: Let it destroy him, or take those jigsawed shapes and multi-textured pieces and create a mosaic. He chose to create the mosaic as you will discover within the pages of After the Snap: Book One in the Anthology of Poems, Written After, During, and Before. This collection of poetry is real and raw, and writing it offered the author the much-needed therapy to move past low self-esteem, grief, and pain to gain the courage to start anew. It is a montage of optimism, hope, and longing. This cathartic process helped Kian channel his pain to prose. Raw, and unfiltered and still bitter in spots, but by the end, "After the Snap", will have a profound effect on all who read it. The author's God-given gift of poetry will continue to make room for him as an artist as he has more books on the horizon.
First LovePoems for Ross
Sometimes when we least expect it, and least feel like we deserve it, a person can show up in our life offering warm, open friendship, and hints of wanting more. How do we react? With fear; with gladness; with longing to find words to express it and perhaps share with the belov癡d. Yes to all of these, and also to the pain if we feel hopeless that they can't love us back.... A glowing nineteen-year-old reaches out to a budding poet, and the pieces printed in this book are the result. Each poem has the potential to resonate deeply, no matter who reads them, and bring back memories of their own first love.

Coronavirus - Mein f羹nftes Corona-Krise TagebuchCOVID-19-Nebenwirkungen
Coronavirus - Mein f羹nftes Corona-Krise Tagebuch von Julius Klain: Es ist zu Beginn dieses Buches inzwischen 羹ber sechs Wochen her, als Julius Klain die Corona-Krise das erste Mal zu sp羹ren bekam und als er damit begann, das erste Tagebuch dieser Reihe zu Papier zu bringen. Seine anf瓣nglichen Antreiber und Motivatoren, seine Angst, seine Unsicherheit und die Ungewissheit, ob und wie sein Leben weitergehen wird, sind zwar inzwischen deutlich kleiner geworden, dennoch kann er nicht damit aufh繹ren, weiterzuschreiben und 羹ber diese au?ergew繹hnliche Zeit zu erz瓣hlen, weil sie ihn schlichtweg fasziniert. In diesem f羹nften Tagebuch, welches den Zeitraum vom 15. bis 21. April 2020 umfasst, widmet sich Julius Klain gezielt, wenn auch teils etwas versteckt, den "Nebenwirkungen" von COVID-19. Also all den Dingen, welche sich aus seiner Perspektive bis dato durch das Coronavirus ver瓣ndert haben.
