A hard-luck Yankee fortune seeker. A Hamilton wagon maker hoping to sell cars to the new railways. A howling swamp so isolated and foul that pioneer farmers had steered it a wide miss. An unlikely trio indeed. And yet these three seemingly unconnected elements came together at just the right moment in time, to create one of the great but little known stories of Canada’s early years. Hard Oiler! is the story of how oil was discovered near Sarnia, Ontario, one hundred and forty years ago, and how the subsequent exploitation of that oil gave birth to what is arguably the world’s most important industry today. This great Canadian milestone can be traced back to the summer of 1858 when James Miller Williams struck oil in Lambton County, in Southwestern Ontario. Soon thereafter Williams dug the first commercial oil well in North America - if not the world - and began refining and marketing his product as machine lubricant and lighting oil. This set off a chain of events that resulted in the establishment of an industry on which our very life today is so heavily dependent. Hard Oiler! traces these events including the gold rush-like frenzy that saw the overnight rise and decline of the frontier town of Oil Springs, and the creation of the much more permanent community of Petrolia, which still flashes its Victorian charm to this day. It also recalls the exotic adventures of Lambton oil drillers as they travelled the globe opening up oil fields from Java to the Ukraine, and from America to Venezuela and the Middle East.

Our students spend a large part of each day studying content that seems unconnected to the stories in their lives. J. Lea Smith and J. Daniel Herring have discovered that drama is the perfect medium for making that connection. By integrating the dramatization of children's literature into content studies, we allow students to show their interpretation of the characters, plot, and setting. Literature dramatizations then become the lens through which the content is viewed, enabling students to live the curriculum firsthand. Smith and Herring begin Dramatic Literacy by explaining the several different roles drama can play in the classroom as well as the essentials of the art form. Two different approaches for structuring the dramatic experience are presented, followed by lots of helpful examples of both approaches in dramatizing a story in language arts, social studies, science, math, and second language instruction. The examples are soundly presented with objectives and focus questions organizing each lesson, clear descriptions of classroom procedures, and suggestions for final evaluation of the work.

The Shape of the Signifier is a critique of recent theory--primarily literary but also cultural and political. Bringing together previously unconnected strands of Michaels's thought--from "Against Theory" to Our America--it anatomizes what's fundamentally at stake when we think of literature in terms of the experience of the reader rather than the intention of the author, and when we substitute the question of who people are for the question of what they believe. With signature virtuosity, Michaels shows how the replacement of ideological difference (we believe different things) with identitarian difference (we speak different languages, we have different bodies and different histories) organizes the thinking of writers from Richard Rorty to Octavia Butler to Samuel Huntington to Kathy Acker. He then examines how this shift produces the narrative logic of texts ranging from Toni Morrison's Beloved to Michael Hardt and Toni Negri's Empire. As with everything Michaels writes, The Shape of the Signifier is sure to leave controversy and debate in its wake.

Integrated Technical Analysis Technical Analysis is usually learned as a series of unconnected and often conflicting techniques. In this groundbreaking book, Ian Copsey demonstrates how a combination of Elliott Wave, cycles and momentum analysis can be integrated to provide a set of signals leading to more powerful forecasts. Both private and professional investors can have difficulty in selecting and synthesizing various technical tools. Integrated Technical Analysis shows how different ideas can be integrated on multiple time frames to enhance the overall process and provide a more solid forecasting platform. The author's ideas have been developed over many years. Copsey's knowledge of the markets and his trading experience ensures that the book abounds with practical trading examples, numerous charts and a down-to-earth view of market activity. A must read for anyone looking to broaden their conceptual knowledge of the subject and to fine-tune their analysis of the market. "There is a real lack of easily accessible and practical books on using Elliott Wave Theory in combination with basic technical analysis. The essential concept of the book is a valuable contribution to the subject. It also fills a void, in that it deals at length with practical aspects." -Colin Nicholson President Australian Technical Analysts Association

The totality of Edwin Stevens's vast appeal as a musician isn't usually something you can get to grips with by listening to one record alone. As the alpha member of the Manchester underground music nerd set he's played regularly in at least five completely stylistically unconnected formations at any one time and probably more like 50 in total. Disappointment is exactly the kind of record I always dreamed about putting out by an Ed-led project and only knowingly incongruously titled in the sense

Carlo Gesualdo, Prince of Venosa, is equally celebrated as the composer of madrigals of great power and tortured complexity and as the murderer of his wife and her lover in flagrante delicto. His life and compositions are not unconnected. His neurotic sensibility found an ideal outlet in the mannerist tendencies of late Renaissance music, and his works are the most extreme examples of those tendencies. Watkins's extended study of Gesualdo's life and works was originally published in 1973. Alongside detailed analysis of Gesualdo's remarkable madrigals and of the few works in other genres, it contained much new biographical material, particularly on the latter part of the composer's life. This new edition has been extensively updated, and contains a new chapter covering the research of recent years. The preface to the first edition, by Igor Stravinsky is reprinted.

This collection paints a picture of Hitler from members of his household in the unique position of being “seemingly ever-present, yet totally unconnected to events.”The reader is introduced to Hitler's Bodyguard Karl Krause (1934-39), his house administrator Herbert Döhring (1935-43) and chambermaid Anna Plaim (1941-43). From these accounts we get a deeper sense of Hitler in close proximity.These accounts massively add to our understanding of Hitler as a three dimensional character, especially from subjects like Plaim who only knew Hitler's home life, having rarely left Berghof.The series is able to shed light on his likes and dislikes from foods to his hobbies, creating a strange sense of humanity. This collection also provides the reader with fresh anecdotes, observations and portraits of Hitler's entourage and relatives. Plaim's images of Eva Braun come from finding torn fragments in the bin, whilst Döhring sheds light on Martin Bormann's demeanour.

A journey and experience for a small group of previously unconnected people, a journey fraught with challenges, trials and tribulations and a test of all our patiences. A compact and interesting read to while away a few hours .

Inspector Maigret investigates the death of fortuneteller Mademoiselle Jeanne, a case remarkable for its wealth of unconnected suspects and fragmentary clues

An argument for the existence of a mental see saw which in the last 250 years has affected a wide range of human attitudes and activities. When the see saw tilts to extreme optimism or pessimism, all kinds of attitudes, normally seen as unconnected, move too. A variety of intellectual activities and movements are partly under the sway of the seesaw, but its powerful influence is rarely noticed. A knowledge of the see saw helps to explain events that seem as far apart as the oil crisis of the 1970s and the counter culture of the 1960s, the high confidence of the mid-nineteenth century and the Cult of the Noble Savage in the era of Rousseau and Captain Cook. The author argues that the present economic crisis has close links with the see saw, though the see saw itself is more than an economic mechanism.

Many people who have headaches, back pain, heart palpitations, stomach acid, and muscle spasms are experiencing sensations unconnected to disease. Though 60 percent of visits to doctors’ offices reveal no underlying health problems, what the author calls “health anxiety syndrome” can seriously disrupt work and personal lives. This book, with tested cognitive-behavioral strategies that reduce anxiety about health, helps readers identify the cause of their underlying worry, counteract irrational thoughts, and redefine their perception of symptoms.
