That haunted house smackdown was filmed for Schrader’s new show, “ The Holzer Files.” In the Travel Channel series, he and a team of paranormal experts reinvestigate the “secret files” of Hans Holzer, one of America’s first ghost hunters.ĭave Schrader, right (with fellow ghost hunter Tim Dennis): "A lot of these spirits have a story that needs to be told." Chris Welsch/APĮvery day is Halloween for people like Schrader, one of a new wave of celebrity paranormal investigators who have inspired countless people to form amateur ghost-hunting teams across America. For the past 13 years, he has tangled with dark entities, listened to disembodied voices and visited many of the world’s most haunted places. It’s just another night at the office for Schrader, one of the nation’s top paranormal investigators. “Something just shoved me straight on,” he says, a look of bewilderment crossing his face. He’s knocked to his knees as if he’s been sucker punched – and no one has touched him. Then someone, or something, slams into the 6-foot, 280-pound Schrader. “You do not have power or authority over her.” “If you’re trying to influence Cindy you need to back off,” Schrader, a burly man with a shaved head and a goatee, announces as he scans the room. So does Cindy Kaza, a psychic on his team who whispers to him, “I don’t want to be here.” Why we love being scared: The science of fearĪs Schrader feels his way through the darkness, he senses that something is stalking him. In the trials, patients taking the drugs saw a reduction in breaks, both in the spine and “clinical” fractures - broken bones that a patient notices, rather than, say, a collapsed vertebra discovered only in X-rays. Merely a 6 percent increase in bone density can translate into a doubling of bone strength, Dr. Rosen, an osteoporosis expert at Maine Medical Center Research Institute and member of an F.D.A. In large clinical trials, patients taking the drug saw increases in bone density in their spines on the order of 15 percent - a huge figure, similar to the amount of bone made in early adolescence, said Dr. “It’s a true bone-building drug that takes advantage of the underlying biology of bone.” Richard Bockman, chief of the endocrine service at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York. “This is an extraordinarily important drug,” said Dr. It was approved only for postmenopausal women with a high risk of fracture, and will carry a warning on its label that it may increase the risk of heart attack or stroke, the F.D.A.

Why, Shapland asks, are the stories of women paved over by others’ narratives? What happens when constant revision is required of queer women trying to navigate and self-actualize in straight spaces? And what might the tracing of McCullers’s life-her history, her secrets, her legacy-reveal to Shapland about herself? Her curiosity gives way to fixation, not just with this newly discovered side of McCullers’s life, but with how we tell queer love stories. Though Shapland recognizes herself in the letters, which are intimate and unabashed in their feelings, she does not see McCullers as history has portrayed her. Shapland is a graduate student when she first uncovers letters written to Carson McCullers by a woman named Annemarie. How do you tell the real story of someone misremembered-an icon and idol-alongside your own? Jenn Shapland’s celebrated debut is both question and answer: an immersive, surprising exploration of one of America’s most beloved writers, alongside a genre-defying examination of identity, queerness, memory, obsession, and love. Longlisted for the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction Winner of the Publishing Triangle Judy Grahn Award for Lesbian Nonfiction, Phi Beta Kappa Christian Gauss Award, and a Lambda Literary Award I didn't have high expectations, so maybe that has something to do with my rating. I could do without the undeveloped romance bit, but this is YA and I let it go. more s interesting and exactly what I was expecting so I am happy with this read overall. It would be easy for me to pick at the watered down writing style and gaps in plot, but it wa. Review 2: I'm trying to read more and finding it hard due to constant interruptions and family obligations, so I wanted something light but not boring. The writing style is pretty mechanical, but has its moments (of finesse, and of wince-worthy sentences). I did really enjoy seeing/hearing more of the psychology of Tris, something that I didn't feel was fully fleshed out in the movie (at least, not as well as the book). Review 1: I thought that the movie was a better, more cohesive story (and fixed many plot points found lacking in the book), but I still enjoyed it it's probably worth noting that I read the book after seeing the movie. In the meantime, I have some tiny toes to tickle. I promise I’ll check in for anything important-and my amazing assistant will also keep you updated. (And hopefully we’ll figure out how to get at least a *little* sleep). And we need time to learn our roles of Mommy, Daddy, and baby. I also can’t find the words to describe how it feels to hold my perfect little plot twist close and kiss his soft cheeks.īut I wanted to at least explain why I’ve been away so much during the last nine months-and why I still won’t be around for the next bit. And now that he’s here, my social media seems too “public” to say his name or show his face. Still, everything felt too fragile to share baby bump photos or exclamation-mark filled posts with everybody. These tiny feet spent months kicking and kicking and kicking-sometimes so hard that I wondered if they might break something inside of me.ĭespite all the doctors who told me this could never happen. Hello, hello everyone! It’s Rayna here with some AWESOME news from Shannon Messenger! Not long ago, she posted on her Instagram, announcing the birth of her son! Look: Image copyright Shannon Messenger will enable precision medicine, with doctors often simply rubber-stamping diagnoses the software makes. “People will get drawn in by the stories to the technologies.”Īmong Lee’s many predictions for 2041 are: “The stories can really vividly describe what 20 years will be like,” he said. Lee told me he had decided to collaborate with a science fiction writer because he thought he would be able to reach a larger audience that way. Last week, I interviewed both Lee and Qiufan about the book. That’s a testament to Qiufan’s contribution: His stories are intriguing, haunting and moving. The book is worth reading, even for those familiar with many of the A.I. The effect is a bit like reading an issue of McKinsey Quarterly and then watching an episode of the dark sci-fi TV series Black Mirror. Each of these is then paired with a short work of speculative fiction by Qiufan, each set in a different country, with narratives centered around the same themes Lee identifies. Rather than presenting a straightforward analysis, the new volume is organized around 10 factual essays, written by Lee, each explaining a different aspect of the technology and its potential impact over the next two decades. Needless to say in typical RAH fashion, adventures ensue, so if one enjoys any RAH books then this should also be put on your list And in typical Heinlein fashion within the first few pages we are immersed in the belief that in no possible way could humans have evolved on Earth, only weird geeky anthropologists believe that, and even they can't agree. This book introduces us to the Fries family from Mars, and in particular the precocious daughter Podkayne. He certainly did have an amazing ability to develop a storyline and make the future setting seem unbelievably natural. This book is seen now as one of his YA novels, although in my opinion as an (early ha ha) middle aged man I still enjoyed both the characters and the story. I never did quite catch up with his prolific output as in my honest opinion his standard declined rapidly, and so I had (and still have) no desire to read some of his later novels. He was still merrily writing away as I grew up and started reading his early novels. RAH was one of the first authors that I read way back in the mid 70s in my early teens as I got into sci-fi in a big way (Wells, Asimov and Clarke were also amongst the first). This story of hope and resistance reminds us of what authoritarians and strongmen throughout history have always feared-that a single light in the darkness calls all other lights to shine, that a lone whisper can give rise to a thundering chorus. "Beautiful, devastating, and deeply moving, THE GRACE YEAR is a testament to the power of finding your voice and speaking your truth. Chilling, poignant, haunting, and unfortunately, all too timely." - Kirkus (Starred Review) The biggest changes often begin with the smallest rebellions, and the emotional conclusion will resonate. Profound moments lie in small details, and readers' hearts will race and break right along with the brave, capable Tierney's.
