Spit in the Ocean: All About Kesey (Spit in the Ocean)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionBetween 1974 and 1981 Ken Kesey self-published six issues of a literary magazine called Spit in the Ocean . After the revolutionary novelist`s death in the fall of 2001, one of his closest friends, acclaimed writer Ed McClanahan, decided to carry out Kesey`s vision and put together a final issue of Spit as a tribute to Kesey`s genius and imperturbable spirit. Featuring contributions from cultural luminaries-including Robert Stone, Paul Krassner, Wendell Berry, Bill Walton, and Grateful Dead lyricists Robert Hunter and John Perry Barlow-as well as `regular folk,` and several pieces by Kesey himself, Spit in the Ocean #7 is a loving and fitting homage to the gigantic and unique spirit of the merriest of the Merry Pranksters.

Splat Boom Pow! The Influence of Cartoons in Contemporary Art

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionSplat--ouch--Boom--ouch--Pow! That hurts. Presenting work by 35 nationally and internationally recognized contemporary artists who have incorporated the imagery, technique, or style of the comics in their work, Splat Boom Pow! makes evident the shift from traditional literary narratives to a visual language of myth as seen in comic strips over the last 40 years. Taking an in-depth look at the current phenomenon of cartoon-referencing work, its connection to the pop art movement of the 1960s, and the social and cultural factors that have shaped our understanding of the comics as a form of popular communication, Splat Boom Pow! includes work by three generations of artists, among them Laylah Ali, Michael Ray Charles, Roy Lichtenstein, Takashi Murakami, Elizabeth Murray, Chris Ofili, Sigmar Polke, Peter Saul, Kenny Scharf, Jim Shaw, and Andy Warhol. Essay by Valerie Cassel, Roger Sabin and Bernard Weldt. Forward and acknowledgements by Marti Mayo. … [detailed...]

Splendid Failure: Postwar Reconstruction in the American South (American Ways Series)

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Michael Fitzgerald`s new interpretation of Reconstruction shows how the internal dynamics of this first freedom movement played into the hands of white racist reactionaries in the South. Splendid Failure recounts how postwar financial missteps and other governance problems quickly soured idealistic Northerners on the practical consequences of the Radical Republican plan, and set the stage for the explosion that swept Southern Republicans from power and resulted in Northern acquiescence to the bloody repression of voting rights. The failed strategy offers a chastening example to present-day proponents of racial equality. [detailed...]

Splendid Solution: Jonas Salk and the Conquest of Polio

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe riveting story of one of the greatest scientific accomplishments of the twentieth century, from the coauthor of the #1 New York Times bestseller Apollo 13 . With rivalries, reversals, and a race against time, the struggle to eradicate polio is one of the great tales of modern history. It begins with the birth of Jonas Salk, shortly before one of the worst polio epidemics in United States history. At the time, the disease was a terrifying enigma: striking from out of nowhere, it afflicted tens of thousands of children in this country each year and left them-literally overnight-paralyzed, and sometimes at death`s door. Salk was in medical school just as a president crippled by the disease, Franklin D. Roosevelt, was taking office-and providing the impetus to the drive for studies on polio. By the early 1950s, Salk had already helped create an influenza vaccine, and was hot on the trail of the polio virus. He was nearly thwarted,… [detailed...]

Splendor in the Short Grass : The Grover Lewis Reader

Description: Book Description`Grover was, after all, the most stone wonderful writer that nobody ever heard of. . . . His job was to hammer the detritus of fugitive cultural encounters into elegant sentences, lapidary paragraphs, and knowable truth, and, in truth, the loveliness and lucidity of Grover`s writing always rose to the triviality of the occasion.` --Dave Hickey, from the foreword Grover Lewis was one of the defining voices of the New Journalism of the 1960s and 1970s. His wry, acutely observed, fluently written essays for Rolling Stone and the Village Voice set a standard for other writers of the time, including Hunter S. Thompson, Joe Eszterhas, Timothy Ferris, Chet Flippo, and Tim Cahill, who said of Lewis, `He was the best of us.` Pioneering the `on location` reportage that has become a fixture of features about moviemaking and live music, Lewis cut through the celebrity hype and captured the real spirit of the counterculture, including its artificiality and surprising banality….

Splendours of Imperial India: British Architecture in the 18th and 19th Centuries

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionAn illustrated survey of British colonial architecture that once dominated the landscape of the Indian subcontinent, this book tells a rich and complicated history of imperialism. One of the most revealing legacies of Britain?s long history in India is the colonial architecture from the two centuries preceding the struggle for independence. Built to house both occupiers and occupied alike, these imposing buildings, including palaces, mansions, clubhouses and government offices, represented a hybrid of Western and Eastern sensibilities as their architects sought to plant the flag of British dominance in a foreign culture. Colonial Splendour focuses on India?s towns and cities, particularly Calcutta, Bombay, and Madras, providing countless illustrations, sketches, and photographs of the many impressive buildings and ruins that dot India?s coastlines, hillsides, and valleys. Andreas Volwahsen?s informative commentaries highlight the… [detailed...]

Description: High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In mathematics, a spline is a special function defined piecewise by polynomials. In interpolating problems, spline interpolation is often preferred to polynomial interpolation because it yields similar results, even when using low-degree polynomials, while avoiding Runge`s phenomenon for higher degrees.In n the computer science subfields of computer-aided design and computer graphics, the term `spline` more frequently refers to a piecewise polynomial (parametric) curve. Splines are popular curves in these subfields because of the simplicity of their construction, their ease and accuracy of evaluation, and their capacity to approximate complex shapes through curve fitting and interactive curve design.

King retired from the Service in disgrace, and now, eight years later, balances careers as a lawyer and a part-time deputy sheriff in a small Virginia town. Then he hears the news: Once again, a third-party candidate has been taken out of the presidential race--abducted right under the nose of Secret Service agent Michelle Maxwell.

Known for years as an actor, writer, comedian, and sexual pioneer, he`s gained a new following as a cultural commentator and frequent guest on political shows. Now, in Spoiled Rotten America, he fixes his gaze on what`s funny about our daily lives-,which includes, roughly speaking, everything. From middle-aged drinking (`When you`re in your twenties, you can drink all night and bungee-jump off a bridge the next day. If I drank all night, I`d want to go off that bridge without the cord`) to the excesses of our eating habits (`This is why the world hates us: the size of the portions we order. Thank God they`ve never shown us eating on Al Jazeera-,that would be the end of it`), Miller finds the silver lining of absurdity within every black cloud. Ultimately, though, Spoiled Rotten America is more than just the average yukfest. It`s an insightful, and surprisingly… [detailed...]

Committed to a socialist dream, they struggled to improve the lot of their fellow immigrants and, at the same time, to raise a family in the midst of the turbulence that surrounded them. Their efforts contributed in the long run to improve working conditions in American mills, but their dream of a socialist American was never to be realized. It was in 1913 that the workers in the Paterson textile mills, having learned that a new kind of loom would put many of them out of work went on strike against themill owners. In desperation, they called in Big Bill Haywood and the Wobblies of the I. W. W. to help them.
