Nothing About Us Without Us: The Adventure Of The Cartoon Republican Army

There never was a heroine like Jefferson Ball. And, thankfully, there may never be. She is, simply, the most powerful humanized female dog in a universe full of them. Faster, stronger, more attractive to boys. Unbeatable as a lover. Unfortunately, her brains are not up to this quality, but don't tell her that. About the only one who can is Major Hamilton Pomeranian, the diminutive ex-soldier who is Jeff's best friend and conscience. When she gets too big for her limited clothing, Hamilton tells her what for. And it's usually only after that point that they are able to escape from whatever convoluted situation they find themselves in. This potential collection will have readers both laughing and awestruck at the events that happen. And, hopefully, you will be one of them.

The Singular Adventures of Jefferson Ball

Dès 1994, le regretté Jorge Semprun écrivait dans son livre " L'ECRITURE OU LA VIE " qu'un jour, relativement proche, il n'y aura plus aucun survivant de Buchenwald pour dire et raconter d'une manière directe, ce qu'a été la survie dans un camp de concentration nazi. Aujourd'hui, presque 25 ans après, ce livre est un des derniers témoignages, sinon peut-être le dernier, à rassembler des souvenirs personnels ainsi que des faits racontés par des adultes dignes de foi, d'un enfant juif qui a survécu à des années de ghetto, puis d'un camp de travail, enfin, d'un camp de concentration, et qui a été libéré à tout juste 8 ans.

Une enfance à nulle autre pareille ou une survie incompréhensible

The story is narrated by Olivia Thrift, a.k.a. the Manitoba based pre-teen super-heroine Captain Fantastic. After filling us in about her background, she then proceeds to speak about her first meeting with the members of the Canadian Consortium of Super-heroines, all of whom are her age or slightly older and based in different parts of Canada. She is particularly thrilled to meet her idol Gerda Munsinger, a.k.a. Muscle Girl, also a Manitoban by residence, and even more so when Gerda befriends her. However, the joyousness of the occasion is marred when Captain Fantastic's arch-enemy Gridiron Girl arrives and tricks Captain Fantastic into literally fighting a losing battle with her. In doing so, Olivia loses the personal confidence required to sustain her heroic persona, and becomes meek and helpless, saved only from death by the timely intervention of Muscle Girl. It is discovered that a villainous race of men known as the Merch are responsible for this, as well as the kidnapping of the members of the Consortium en masse when Gerda and Olivia are otherwise engaged. As a consequence, Muscle Girl is forced to call the aid of her colleagues in the International League of Girls with Guns- The Brat, an alien only resembling a toddler; Power Bunny, a truly animated rabbit; Cerberus, the all-mighty Princess of Puppies; and Candy Girl, the Titan of Teens- to help her and a temporarily powerless Olivia set things right. Yet it will not be an easy task. And before it is over, they may all succumb to multiple kinds of weakness that will destroy them permanently....

Honey And Salt

The quest for enlightenment has occupied mankind for millennia. And from the depictions we've seen-monks sitting on meditation cushions, nuns kneeling in prayer, shamans communing with the universe-it seems that this elusive state is reserved for a chosen few. But now, neuroscientist David Perlmutter and medical anthropologist and shaman Alberto Villoldo have come together to explore the commonalities between their specialties with the aim of making enlightenment possible for anyone.Joining the long-separated worlds of science and spirit, Perlmutter explores the exciting phenomena of neurogenesis and mitochondrial health, while Villoldo brings his vast knowledge of shamanic and spiritual practices to the table. Together they draw from the most powerful tools in each discipline to create the Power Up Your Brain program, a ground-breaking, five-week plan that helps prime the brain for enlightenment. With nutritional advice, dietary supplements, physical exercise, shamanic practices, meditation, and visualizations, Perlmutter and Villoldo guide readers, step by step, through a program to help them clear their minds from previous trauma and open themselves up to experience the inner peace, vast insight, and extraordinary creativity that define the experience of enlightenment, paving the way to successfully face the challenges to come.

When it is discovered by the United States government that animated cartoon characters are real and not fabrications, they don't know how to react...except to exile them from Earth onto a world not of their making. Which doesn't exactly go as planned...

Animated cartoon characters. Many are beloved, yes. But many more are simply ignored, filed away and destroyed when they are no longer needed. Until now. This is their story.
