  • Spreading the Light of Hanukkah Amidst This

    Spreading the Light of Hanukkah Amidst This

    As a teenager, I loved classic science-fiction television shows like Star Trek and The Twilight Zone . I remember countless late nights glued to the TV, listening to Rod Serling open the show: “ It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the T wilight Zone .” Its episodes were clever and engaging. Imagine a world, where the beauty standards were reversed and what we think of as ugly and disfigured is the normative standard and someone whom we think of as gorgeous is deemed horrific. Or the classic episode the Odyssey of Flight 33 where a plane somehow gets sucked into a time vortex and instead of being in the year 1961 when they took off, it is 1940 and there is no runway long enough to land on, no way to get back to the future…. (You could see where later 80s movie writers, like Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale , found their inspiration!) This was a show that pushed the limits of our imagination and like all great literature allowed for the “willing suspension of disbelief,” as Aristotle first explained it. This allows for the audience watching a play (or reading a novel or seeing a show or a movie) to enter into a space where we can leave reality behind, and enjoy the stimulation of the art.

    Version 2.4 by Cataquack Warrior

    1 Bone Version 2.4 By Cataquack Warrior Welcome to the Valley, traveler. You’re out of the desert, at least, but you’d best be wary. This place may be peaceful right now, but there’s trouble looming. The shadows are baring their teeth, and forgotten myths dream of revenge. And soon there will be an epic story like no other. You’re starting two years before the Bone cousins pass through these parts, and the world may end before your ten years are up. You have 1000 CP to start out with. So get ready, and welcome aboard, Ishmael; the adventure has already begun. Now, awaken! 2 Location All right, here’s a map of the area for you to use. …What? I never said it was a good map. Roll a 1d8 or pay 50 CP to determine your starting location. 1. Waterfall- A large waterfall found at the far north of the valley. Careful, it’s a long way down if you fall! 2. Grandma Ben’s Farm- A humble farm when Grandma Ben and her granddaughter Thorn live peacefully. You should be able to get assistance here, as long as you don’t insult Grandma Ben’s cows. 3 3. Barrelhaven- A small, rustic village that is slightly distrustful of foreigners. Still, there’s plenty of farm goods and beer to be had, assuming you have the right things to pay with. 4. Dragon’s Stair- The fabled entrance to Deren Gard, the home of the dragons. Of course, dragons are just make-believe, right? 5.

  • Living in the Twilight Zone

    Living in the Twilight Zone

    NWAnews.com :: Northwest Arkansas' News Source 3/4/09 12:28 AM In the Zone BY RON WOLFE Posted on Saturday, February 28, 2009 URL: http://www.nwanews.com/adg/Style/253699/ You open this door with the key of imagination. But what if you've lost the key? Keys disappear, and even stranger things happen at home. Rod Serling knew. His classic TV series, The Twilight Zone, claimed to be set in the fifth dimension. But some of the creepiest episodes deal with things commonly found around the house: mirrors (that show something out of place), telephones (that speak for themselves), children's toys (that come to life). "I believe Serling himself thought of home as a haven," says Andrew Polak of the Rod Serling Memorial Foundation in Serling's hometown of Binghamton, N.Y. But in many of the stories that Serling and other writers imagined for The Twilight Zone, the house "was a convenient place for things to go wrong." Serling generally set his stories in the most ordinary circumstances. Home, especially, made the unexpected all the more, well - Twilight Zone-ish. "The strangeness of the known, rather than the unknown, can be very effective," Polak says. Viewers "could put themselves in the situation, driving the impact home." In "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street," for example, good neighbors turn against each other when the electricity goes on and off at random. One house has lights, but the place next door doesn't. The power company might explain what happened: houses on different circuits, repair crews doing the best they can.

    USING GRAPHIC NOVELS WITH CHILDREN AND TEENS A Guide for Teachers and Librarians USING Graphic NOVELS with CHILDREN AND TEENS A Guide for Teachers and Librarians Graphic NOVELS ARE hot! No longer an underground movement appealing to a small following of enthusiasts, graphic novels have emerged as a growing segment of book publishing, and have become accepted by librarians and educators as mainstream literature for children and young adults­­ literature that powerfully motivates kids to read. Are graphic novels for you? Should you be taking a more serious look at this format? How might graphic novels fit into your library collection, your curriculum, and your classroom? Want to know more? If so, this guide is for you. Art © 2010 Jeff Smith 2 What are graphic novels? In this context, the word “graphic” does not mean “adult” or “explicit.” Graphic novels are books written and illustrated in the style of a comic book. The term graphic novel was first popularized by Will Eisner to distinguish his book A Contract with God (1978) from collections of newspaper comic strips. He described graphic novels as consisting of “sequential art”—a series of illustrations which, when viewed in order, tell a story. Although today’s graphic novels are a recent phenomenon, this basic way of storytelling has been used in various forms for centuries—early cave drawings, hieroglyphics, and medieval tapestries like the famous Bayeux Tapestry can be thought of as stories told in pictures. The term graphic novel is now generally used to describe any book in a comic format that resembles a novel in length and narrative development.

For everyoneBy Anthony LWr6yRPYp IozzoThis is truly a great collection of stories. I am a fan of the Twilight Zone QgwFREwc0 and have read Richard Matheson, Charles Beaumont, Damon Knight and ObBtBRj1v others who have contributed to the series. This anthology is by far the best. I SBFBCo74P enjoyed Serling's clear and fluid style. Images of the episodes they were based IkQHJRTD3 on constantly entered my mind.However the stories themselves went beyong the 5VofD76gl television series and could very well stand on there own. Anyone not familiar nAImQXiVn with the series could enjoy this collection. An absolute must have for fans and IOHWGW4tK sci-fi/fantasy lovers.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

    Using Graphic Novels in the Classroom A Guide for Teachers and Librarians Graphic novels are hot!

How might graphic novels fit into your curriculum and your classroom? What are some specific ideas for how to do this, using Scholastic’s new editions of Bone by Jeff Smith? Want to know more?
