...The series starts out with the death of a seemingly insignificant person in the 1888 Great Blizzard and ends with a promise of better days for the unconventional heroine who comes into wealth and independence. With real life historical figures populating its pages the series is laden with a sense of familiarity and authenticity and the widespread political corruption and extravagant wealth typical of the period. In the second novel, “Lies That Comfort and Betray”, Rosemary Simpson goes into the dank and dark underbelly of the society to unearth the rot underneath the glittering façade of the...

...His enrollment in Central Saint Martin’s College of Art and Design inspired his final graduation project channeling ‘Jack the Ripper’ which was bought in it’s entirety by London style icon Isabella Blow; thus marking McQueen’s collision into the fashion world. Four years out of Design school, McQueen was named the Chief Designer of Louis Vitton-owned Givenchy- French haute fashion house. He claims the job “constrained his creativity” yet during his time there he still pushed boundaries and won British designer of the year in 1996, 1997 and 2001. In 2000, Gucci bought a 51% stake in McQueen’s private company, providing capital for expansion. He was awarded International Designer of the year by Council of Fashion Designers of America and “A Most Excellent Commander of the British Empire” by the Queen of England as well as British Designer of the Year in 2003.

...Women, Romance Novels and Shame Mac H English Composition 111 22 March 2013 Introduction “Bodice-ripper”, “trashy books”, “porn for women”, these are just some of the derogatory terms used to describe romance novels. The romance genre has maintained a steady popularity among women for many decades. Afraid of women gaining power in any form, they were labeled sub par literature by a male dominated social and literary culture. This anthology will attempt to answer the question of why women who read romance novels are ashamed of their choice or reading material and why these books are vilified in the literary world. Previous generations established a woman’s place as a mother and homemaker no matter her social status. This fear of women wielding more knowledge and power through reading was born because the women depicted in romance novels were independent and free of the sexual, social, and financial constraints that a patriarchal society placed on them. Although romance novels do not come to mind when literature is discussed, if you listen carefully you will realize they are actually the subtle battle cry of the feminist movement. Romance novels fly high the flag of feminism; they are the drumbeat swelling the dynamic purposefulness of women who read them. Nevertheless, the genre is covered in a layer of disdain and scorn and women are made to feel ashamed of reading such literature. The stigma attached to these books suggest that anyone who reads them...

...THE MARTIAN CHILD by David Gerrold Toward the end of the meeting, the caseworker remarked, "Oh - and one more thing. Dennis thinks he's a Martian." "I beg your pardon?" I wasn't certain I had heard her correctly. I had papers scattered all over the meeting room table - thick piles of stapled incident reports, manila-foldered psychiatric evaluations, Xeroxed clinical diagnoses, scribbled caseworker histories, typed abuse reports, bound trial transcripts, and my own crabbed notes as welclass="underline" Hyperactivity. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. Emotional Abuse. Physical Abuse. Conners Rating Scale. Apgars. I had no idea there was so much to know about children. For a moment, I was actually looking for the folder labeled Martian. "He thinks he's a Martian," Ms. Bright repeated. She was a small woman, very proper and polite. "He told his group home parents that he's not like the other children - he's from Mars - so he shouldn't be expected to act like an Earthling all the time." "Well, that's okay," I said, a little too quickly. "Some of my best friends are Martians. He'll fit right in. As long as he doesn't eat the tribbles or tease the feral Chtorran." By the narrow expressions on their faces, I could tell that the caseworkers weren't amused. For a moment, my heart sank. Maybe I'd said the wrong thing. Maybe I was being too facile with my answers. The hardest thing about adoption is that you have to ask someone to trust you with a child. That means that you have to be willing to...

...THE PLAYER Good game design is player-centric. That means that above all else, the player and her desires are truly considered. Rather than demanding that she do something via the rules, the gameplay itself should inherently motivate the player in the direction the designer wants her to go. Telling players they must travel around the board or advance to the next level is one thing. If they don’t have a reason and a desire to do it, then it becomes torture. In creating a game, designers take a step back and think from the player’s viewpoint: What’s this game about? How do I play? How do I win? Why do I want to play? What things do I need to do? MEANINGFUL DECISIONS Distilled down to its essence, game design is about creating opportunities for players to make meaningful decisions that affect the outcome of the game. Consider a game like a boxing match. So many decisions lead up to the ultimate victory. How long will I train? Will I block or will I swing? What is my opponent going to do? Where is his weakness? Jab left or right? Even those few, brief questions don’t come close to the myriad decisions a fighter must make as he progresses through a match. Games invite players into similar mental spaces. Games like Tetris and Chess keep our minds busy by forcing us to consider which one of several possible moves we want to take next. In taking these paths, we know that we may be prolonging or completely screwing up our entire game. The Sims games and those in...

...wandering, unsettled condition, is without any certain abode; for though he has, in consequence of his angelic nature, a kind of empire in the liquid waste or air, yet this is certainly part of his punishment, that he is . . . without any fixed place, or space, allowed him to rest the sole of his foot upon. Daniel Defoe, _The History of the Devil_ I The Angel Gibreel "To be born again," sang Gibreel Farishta tumbling from the heavens, "first you have to die. Hoji! Hoji! To land upon the bosomy earth, first one needs to fly. Tat-taa! Taka-thun! How to ever smile again, if first you won't cry? How to win the darling's love, mister, without a sigh? Baba, if you want to get born again . . ." Just before dawn one winter's morning, New Year's Day or thereabouts, two real, full-grown, living men fell from a great height, twenty-nine thousand and two feet, towards the English Channel, without benefit of parachutes or wings, out of a clear sky. "I tell you, you must die, I tell you, I tell you," and thusly and so beneath a moon of alabaster until a loud cry crossed the night,...

Peter Shaffer is one of Britain's foremost contemporary dramatists. Born in 1926 and educated at Cambridge he had a variety of jobs before becoming a playwright. During the Second World War he worked down a coal-mine; he has also worked in the New York Public Library and as a journalist. He was awarded the CBE in the 1987 Birthday Honours List. His first big success was with Five Finger Exercise in 1958, which ran for two years in London before transferring to New York. Other successes include Amadeus (which has been filmed), The Private Ear: The Public Eye and The Royal Hunt of the Sun. This last play represented a departure for Shaffer as a writer; he moved from detective stories, naturalistic drama and farce to epic theatre and the adoption of avant-garde stage techniques. It was while...
