173,95 kr. THE DANCING BEAST a novel (c) John FoleyEngland, 16th Century: A tale stranger than a Zombie attack - and historically accurate!The "dancing plague" is turning groups of ordinary people into uncontrollable mobs.Rumo(u)rs of a strange phenomenon circulate through an already-troubled land. It's bad enough that great wealth presides over crushing poverty, a messianic preacher is calling for The End Of Days and a foreign troublemaker is calling for a revolution. Now something possibly even more dangerous (and did we mention historically accurate?) moves through the outlands.Thrown into this world are three of the least-likely heroes you'll ever meet - two traveling players under the direction of a political operative who may be a genius but is quite possibly a madman. Running from their own troubled histories the three men stumble (and we mean stumble) across court intrigues, tavern brawls, mysterious murders and, well, The Dancing Beast. One of the men confronts a woman from his past, another meets a woman who may be the key to his future and the third holds on to the memory of a woman who may never have existed.Based (very loosely) on some actual historical events 'The Dancing Beast' tells a story of... ADVENTURE! MYSTERY! ROMANCE! OCCASIONAL COARSE HUMO(U)R!SET AGAINST A BACKDROP OF REPRESSIVE REGIMES, CRAZED CULTS, AND THE END OF THE WORLD! (But don't worry, it all happened a long time ago.)

- A Satirical Observation. Maybe.
148,95 kr. Trump Exit Plan Playbook outlines the options the President may have according to the documents in the hands of the author. For those who believe he may stay, this is a must read as it outlines and hits upon thoughts of personal pardons, fraudulent elections, having your mouth washed out with Lysol and other political abnormalities, the President has created, fantasized about, or actually experience. Little did anyone, except for New Yorkers experienced in Donald's decade, understand and tolerate the man and his antics. His supporters assumed, he would lead the country like a businessman. Unfortunately, his adversaries, growing in numbers realize his plan is to own the country, like a businessman. But the author knew.Trump was Donald then. Presidential thoughts were mere fantasy, unlike today when they are actual fantasies. Thanks to Richard Nixon and Roger Stone the Presidential seed was planted decades ago. Once rooted, Trump realized his bull was the best fertilizer. If he believed it would grow, it would grow. Ask him. Trump is a product of The College of Marble & Cohn, The School of Advance Studies in Positive Fabrication. It's a hybrid version of Dr. Norman Vincent Peale's Philosophy of Positive Thinking combined with Attorney Roy Cohn's Philosophy of Delusional Thinking. The graduates, of which there is only one, received a Degree of Delusional Thinking. One of the many highlights of the degree is the power to believe, in delusionary terms, that if you think positively, you can run the WORLD. There you go. The reader will find the problem arise when Ivanka reviews the documents and becomes The Powerful one in order to defend her position as the future Matriarch of the family. Although shining on the outside, she is the brain behind the test scores. Her platform planks for the upcoming Administration make her look more like a Democrat, than a supporter of POTUS's policies. Knowing what we know, how does that sit with the sitting President who may not be sitting for long. Or, is there a plan in play so he can always sit in The White House?

- A Centennial History of Benton High School, 1905-2005
348,95 kr. In 1905, the St. Joseph Board of Education established a high school in South St. Joseph. For many years this area was known as "Skeeterville" because parts of the South Side were marshy since the area was near the river bottoms. Although requests had been made for a high school to be established there, school authorities felt that the people would not send their children to high school. Until Benton was established, there were no ties to bind the people of the different districts. When Benton was organized it was observed that Benton High School ". . . had the effect of bringing the families of different parts [of the South Side] into a closer relationship. The children became acquainted through their classes at school and their parents began to visit back and forth . . . . The South Side present[ed] a solid front in nearly every project of public nature which [came] up, and [was] getting its share of improvements, too. Fortified with this support, the first class of Benton High School set forth determined to succeed-the acorn from which the might oak has grown

- (Music: Why We Listen, Why We Play)
208,95 kr. John Foley is a musician and Music Therapist who has performed across the US and Canada. After years of Rock & Roll bands he began working as accompanist for Oscar Brand, sharing stages with Pete Seeger, Arlo Guthrie, Odetta, Richie Havens and many others. Recordings include Rock & Roll, Folk songs, children's music and educational programming for the Smithsonian Institute, the BBC and The Canadian Broadcasting Co. "Somewhere in my late 50s I realized that I was losing interest in music. After forty-some years as a fan, would-be player, student, musician, performer and teacher, I realized that I just didn't care much anymore. Worse yet, it didn't seem to bother me. I had played and listened to music because I wanted to and needed to. Now I mostly played when I had to and wasn't listening with any particular interest. Ironically, I was working as a Music Therapist, using music to try and improve the lives of people with everything from Autism to Alzheimer's Disease. If music worked for them, why didn't it work for me? When the phrase, "Physician, heal thyself", is quoted in the New Testament, it's cited as a "proverb", meaning it was already an old notion two thousand years ago. "Musician, heal thyself" was almost the title of this book. When we try to fix something, it helps to know how it worked when it was working properly. I was going to have to start at the beginning." "Bruce Springsteen once wrote, "I swear I found the Secret to the Universe / in the engine of an old parked car". Well, I didn't do that but I did look into an old comic drinking song and found the ancient roots of a major religious belief system. And I realized that, from a neurological standpoint, playing music is the closest you can get to tickling yourself. You may have seen someone crunch Wint-O-Green LifeSaver candies in a dark room to produce sparks but you might not know how that phenomenon can apply to amplifying guitars." " There's a story h
