Bennett's Wordfinder Bennett’s Wordfinder A handy companion to the second edition of the world’s most famous book on modern English usage Introduction It is frustrating when you cannot find information that you think must be in the second edition (1965) of the world’s most famous book on modern English usage (which, for reasons made necessary by law, I shall call that book). I made this word finder to help you find words that are not listed alphabetically in that book. The word abdomen is listed in its natural place in that book, so it is pointless to include abdomen in this word finder. If you want to know something about the word referral, however, you will not be able to find it listed under the r’s in that book. This word finder includes the word referral, and it asks you to look under the article headed -al nouns. Always look in that book first. If Fowler listed a word alphabetically, that word is probably not listed in this word finder. Sometimes a word will appear in this word finder as well as appearing in alphabetical order in that book. This means I have found another reference to the word that you may not have found by looking at the alphabetical listing in that book only; protagonist, for example, appears seven times. Two square brackets after a word mean that I have inserted something I thought would help you. (For example, immoral]] refers the reader to amoral even though immoral is not mentioned in that book under amoral.) You will find many words repeated rather than being listed once with several references being set off, as in most indexes. This saved me a lot of work, and it will not inconvenience you. Set in Times 9/9 and alphabetically sorted using Microsoft Word 6.0. Page layout done on Adobe Pagemaker 6.0.

  • Total Eclipse of the Heart
    Cover Total Eclipse of the Heart by Flamingo Illustrated by Suzan Lovett Edited by Barbara D., Elaine H., and Kath Moonshine. Originally published as a zine on October 1, 2001 by Flamingo ___________________________________________________________ New Intro, 2020: It's startling to go back and look through these 19-year-old files as I get ready to post an updated version of Total Eclipse of the Heart online. While it has been online since I first started writing it, its formatting was designed for 28 baud modems not the high speed internet of today. I wrote the original intro right after the events of 9/11, something I'd forgotten about; looking back, I'm surprised the task actually got done in time for ZebraCon that year. It was a big zine and producing one was something I'd never done before. Posting it as it was being written was also something new. Getting it printed provided even more drama, as the woman who offered to produce it through the professional printing company she worked for nearly lost her job over the zine's content. I was warned it wouldn't sell since it was already available on line, but it did, quite well. Over the years, fans' affection for this story has been more than encouraging and has been one of the many factors that has kept me active in Starsky and Hutch fandom for over 20 years. I am cheered to know that many of the friends I've listed in the original intro are still in my life, though some, sadly, like Rosemary and our friend Mel, have passed away.

The Inside By: Hannah Shlaferman David Means, Full Year 2017 Ping Pong Our mother’s condition determined my sister’s name and mine. My mother, in one of her states of blissful mania, named my sister after a flower. Marigold: the golden blossom, bursting out from its center in vibrant color. The image stands clear in my mind from the first marigold I ever saw. It was in our neighbor’s yard, a whole bed of flowers. Their orange and yellow heads stood out bright against the green of their leaves. Mom picked one for me and held it up to my nose for a sniff. It wasn’t like the sweet smell of most flowers, instead it was musty, sharp, alluring and unpleasant all at once. I crinkled my nose and then watched, fascinated, as mom brought the flower to her giant protruding belly. Holding the marigold by its green stem, she swirled the petals in a circle on her stomach. The movement was slow at first but then became rapid. The flower began to sag.

  • Put Yourself in His Place by Charles Reade</H1>
    Put Yourself in His Place by Charles Reade Put Yourself in His Place by Charles Reade PUT YOURSELF IN HIS PLACE by Charles Reade I will frame a work of fiction upon notorious fact, so that anybody shall think he can do the same; shall labor and toil attempting the same, and fail--such is the power of sequence and connection in writing."--HORACE: Art of Poetry. CHAPTER I. Hillsborough and its outlying suburbs make bricks by the million, spin and weave both wool and cotton, forge in steel from the finest needle up to a ship's armor, and so add considerably to the kingdom's wealth. page 1 / 1.039 But industry so vast, working by steam on a limited space, has been fatal to beauty: Hillsborough, though built on one of the loveliest sites in England, is perhaps the most hideous town in creation. All ups and down and back slums. Not one of its wriggling, broken- backed streets has handsome shops in an unbroken row. Houses seem to have battled in the air, and stuck wherever they tumbled down dead out of the melee. But worst of all, the city is pockmarked with public-houses, and bristles with high round chimneys. These are not confined to a locality, but stuck all over the place like cloves in an orange. They defy the law, and belch forth massy volumes of black smoke, that hang like acres of crape over the place, and veil the sun and the blue sky even in the brightest day. But in a fog--why, the air of Hillsborough looks a thing to plow, if you want a dirty job.

  • Emily H—. a Sad Story by Andrew Forrester, Jr
    Emily H—. A Sad Story by Andrew Forrester, Jr. A few years ago I was instructed by an eminent solicitor, the partner in a large house at the West- end of London, to penetrate the mysteries of one of the most cruel frauds that ever came under the range of my professional observation; and the principal facts of this sad case are embodied in the following narrative. Mr. H— was the senior partner in one of the largest cotton manufactories in the North of England. His mills in the town of W— gave employment to, I believe, nearly 3,000 persons, men, women, and children. He was reputed, and was, beyond all doubt, a millionaire. The fabrics woven by his looms were famed throughout Great Britain, and all over the world—a distinction yet, I am told, enjoyed by his partners and successors. He was a proud and vulgar man, who in his person and manners realized one of the descriptions of Mrs. Trollope. Popular rumor in the neighborhood of his residence and factory, charged him with all manner of meanness, petty and sensual vice. But let that pass. It is only important to say that several years before he died, he became a sleeping partner in the business he had created; and that vinous or spiritual indulgence sent him to his grave much earlier than in all human probability he would otherwise have gone there. When he expired, no one lamented his death. The operatives lost an employer, but as the steam engine only ceased its panting one day, and the looms and spindles only stopped during this brief period, after which all went on as before; and as nobody lost anything worth men- tioning by the fact, and nobody cared anything about a selfish old man, he dropped into his grave without the honour of a monument, or the homage of a tear.
