Kanji Memorization Drills, Version Three
This is the third version of our series Kanji Memorization Drills. It consists of drills that teach 1,528 kanji and their pronunciations. Before you start using it, I suggest that you complete our first three Japanese Readers, Learn to Read in Japanese, Volumes I, II and III. After that, please consider alternating between the books, first drilling yourself on the kanji and then re-reading the text in the Readers. On each of the pages in this book, you will see three columns. In the first column, there is a kanji character followed by a small number that indicates the number of pronunciations that you should try to learn for that character. In the second column, you will see the kanji's unique listing number, taken from the Kanji Catalogue in the Reader. Also in the second column, there are mnemonics (which we also call Cues in the Catalogue) that are designed to approximate the Japanese pronunciations and help you to remember them. Finally, in the third column, there are sample Japanese words that contain the actual kanji readings. Where feasible, I have sorted the kanji into informal groups of similar characters and arranged these characters so that they fit within the confines of a single page, to make it easier for students to compare them. In order to use this book effectively, I suggest that you use three tools: 1) an index card, about 3 x 5 inches in size, 2) a pen with a fine point and 3) an eraser tool. The purpose of the index card is to conceal the second and third columns while you test yourself on the pronunciations of the kanji characters in the first column. The purpose of the pen is to make small erasable dots in the margin to the left of any kanji whose pronunciations you cannot readily recall. Finally, the purpose of the eraser tool is to erase those dots after you have successfully re-tested yourself on the missed kanji. I recommend that you use the "Pentel Presto Jumbo Correction Pen Fine Point" for the eraser tool. Studying kanji through memorization drills can have a calming effect on the mind. Sitting away from electronic screens, one holds a drill book and an index card, focusing on a single isolated kanji character while trying to recall its shape and its various pronunciations. When an error is made, the only consequence is a small dot in the margin - a gentle prompt to come back and review the character later. In contrast, the correct identification of a kanji and its readings delivers a brief rush of energy and a renewed sense of confidence. I hope that the drills in this volume will help you to achieve Japanese reading fluency.
Kanji Memorization Drills, Version Two
This is the second version of our series Kanji Memorization Drills. It consists of drills that teach 1,208 kanji and their pronunciations.

Orphans' Court Register Docket, Mifflin County, Pennsylvania, Volume 1, 1789-1899
A message to readers from the compiler: Why Mifflin County, Pennsylvania? For a very selfish reason - Mifflin County is where the first known records of my third-great-grandfather were created. As of July 2025, I will celebrate the 52nd anniversary of the beginning of my search for David SCOTT, Sr.'s parents and siblings. The search is both wearing and energizing. I mean, what would I do if I actually found what I have been looking for? (Those of you with similar brick walls, have you ever considered the answer to that question?)Although a lot of Mifflin County records are not easily accessible, these Orphans' Court records are available through the FamilySearch Catalog. However, there are no indexes to them. So it seemed prudent to transcribe and index them to make finding individuals easier.Sadly, these records do not definitively establish a relationship between the participants. There may be clues, but some additional work will probably be required to discover them. What they do reveal is (a) an approximation of the time of death of the principles, and (b) those who participated in the winding-up process of probate for those individuals. In a worst-case scenario, the only thing you may learn is (c) that your POI (Person of Interest) was on the ground in this area at this time.Please make generous allowances for spelling (both the original writers and the compiler's handwriting interpretation skills). If most of the consonants of your name are there, give it a second look. And ideally, look at the actual record. Frame numbers are provided to allow for easy access to the actual image from which the information was taken. - Happy hunting!

The Book of Forbidden Words
What you see before you is no mere glossary of the profane. It is a map of the taboo, a cartography of consciousness that traces the unspeakable currents flowing beneath polite society's polished veneer. When Robert Anton Wilson first compiled this euphoric lexicon of expletives and eroticisms, he wasn't just collecting dirty words he was staging a linguistic jailbreak.Wilson understood long before the term went vogue that information is the prima materia of reality. He knew that words, particularly those we're told not to use, shape the world we inhabit. And like all true shamans of syntax, he chose to play with the forbidden, not to offend, but to reveal: that language is a tool, a weapon, a toy, a trap and occasionally, a get-out-of-jail-free card . . .So, read on - gasp, laugh, squirm, blush. But above all, remember: every forbidden word is a door to consciousness expansion and RAW, (may the Non-Simultaneous Processes Interacting protect him), has with this book left us a key under the mat.- - -Robert Anton Wilson's Liberated Dictionary of Improper English contains over 700 words and phrases. "I have learned more from Robert Anton Wilson than I have from any other source." - George Carlin, author of "Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television"

Statesman
What if true leadership had nothing to do with power?In Statesman, Plato investigates the essence of political authority and the rare individual fit to wield it. Set as a sequel to Sophist, this dialogue continues with the Eleatic Stranger taking the lead in a complex inquiry into governance. Through careful questioning, he and his companions attempt to define what a statesman truly is-not merely someone who holds office or rules by tradition, but someone who possesses genuine knowledge and a soul aligned with justice.Plato's Statesman rejects simplistic definitions of political leadership and instead offers a vision of governance founded on wisdom and expertise, not demagoguery or brute enforcement. This modern translation makes Plato's arguments accessible without compromising their depth, making this one of the most thought-provoking works of political philosophy.What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation: The Difference Between Law and Wisdom - Explore why laws alone cannot guarantee justice without a wise leader to interpret them.The Role of the Ideal Ruler - Understand how Plato defines the true statesman, distinct from tyrants, demagogues, or mere officeholders.Political Classification and the Weaving Analogy - Learn Plato's method of dividing systems of rule and his brilliant metaphor comparing governance to the art of weaving.Foundations of Political Philosophy - Witness the philosophical roots of modern political theory and debates about technocracy vs. democracy.A Modern, Accessible Translation - Designed for readers of today while retaining the challenging structure of Plato's original dialogue.Whether you are a student of politics, a lover of philosophy, or simply questioning the world's leadership crises, Statesman is essential reading for anyone seeking deeper truths about governance and virtue.
Euthydemus
What if logic could be used to mislead more than to reveal?In Euthydemus, Plato stages one of his most humorous and revealing dialogues. Socrates, ever the champion of sincere knowledge, sits with a promising youth named Clinias when two professional sophists, Euthydemus and Dionysodorus, interrupt to demonstrate their so-called teaching of virtue. What follows is a dizzying verbal circus-paradoxes, fallacies, and clever wordplay that frustrate Socrates and amuse the reader.Yet beneath the laughter lies a serious message. Plato critiques the dangers of style over substance, showing how language, when abused, can obscure truth instead of uncovering it. This modern adaptation preserves the comic brilliance of the original while making its philosophical depth accessible to all readers.What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation: A Satirical Masterpiece on Education - Witness Plato's critique of sophistry through the absurd antics of his most ridiculous characters.The Dangers of Misused Logic - Understand how arguments can be twisted into meaningless traps.Socrates at His Wittiest - Enjoy Socrates' subtle responses as he navigates the chaos with both patience and precision.A Timeless Reflection on Language and Meaning - Explore how words can illuminate or obscure the truth.Modern Language, Classical Wisdom - A translation that keeps the wit sharp and the ideas clear for today's audience.Whether you love philosophy, debate, or dry humor, Euthydemus will leave you thinking-and laughing-long after the final exchange.
