32

Posted by on Monday, 18 April, 2011

There”s something fishy in the state of Illinois: 32 keeps getting selected. It happens every night. The public wants to know what”s going on, the media want to know who”s to blame, and the tall and stately Claudia Higginson loses her job as lottery drawing hostess. Numerologists, math professors and Native American activists step forward to explain the situation, and the government sets up a commission. But 32 goes right on winning. Narrator Monk Lewis puts it in sports terms: 32 is making a statement! Delivering a message! He wants respect! remarks that infuriate his 29-year-old daughter, Karen, and his friend Hector Martinez. She”s a gender equity specialist, and he”s a middle-aged Mexican-American grandfather. In their eyes, 32 is just a number, a symbolic representation of a value. They claim that numbers do not have personalities, but how would they know? Neither of them plays the lottery. Of course 32 has a personality. Why else would it continue to win?

Tell It Like It Is

Posted by on Sunday, 17 April, 2011

A thought-provoking new collection of monologs by best-selling author Peg Kehret! Each monolog creates a moment of recognition that makes both the performer and the audience smile — and think! Most are structured to provide insights of discovery to reveal who we are and why. Every young actor performing one of these monologs will recount a memorable event that opened the way to maturity. But there’s more than just provocative thoughts in this collection — many of the monologs can be performed for laughter alone. All monologs are easily adaptable for boys or girls. Sample titles include: I Need a Cell Phone, Toto Tells the Truth about Oz, The Day I Was a Dog, Remembering Little Rock, The Four-Part Plan for a New Me, Taking the SAT and How to Be Proactive in Math.

 

Relatively Simple

Posted by on Sunday, 17 April, 2011

Relativity theory complexity masks much that is easy to understand – admittedly with a little effort. There is an alternative approach which is logical, simple in principle and capable of being used alongside current theory. This book is about that alternative. Dry academic style is replaced by a fresh easy-to-read open air setting for much of the descriptive background. Plain language is used. Essential math has been kept simple and complete. The approach is logical, progressive and capable of verification. Theoretical analysis includes: Basic Relativity; Starlight Aberration; Simultaneity; Ring Lasers; Galaxy Rotation and Pioneer 10 anomalous acceleration. A new, readable, teachable and believable look at relativity with many relevant applications. An easy introduction to the subject which also invites a closer look at some limitations of current theory.
