Bøger af Dawn D Boyer

Dr. Boyer encounters a lot of conspiracy theories on social media and in ordinary conversations with peers and simply can't believe so many people are gullible to instantly believe these crazy ideas. Being a logical person she is, she often asks realistic questions about the events and those who are conspiracy theory enthusiasts. Mostly she has more faith in her fellow human being and Americans to believe many (or any) of the conspiracy theories that are floating around. This short essay essentially asks those who hear the theories to stop, think, and logically work though not only the main-stream-media chatter, but also if they really want the answers to dig deeper into the truth that is documented by those who were there, scientists who do the research, and the authorities who search through the facts and sometimes the rubble to find the real truth about what happened. No one can keep a secret if more than one person knows about events. Look at the laws, law enforcement documentation, research the scientific data, and understand other folks are human (and make mistakes, as well as have ethics in their own lifestyles), before crying wolf in public.

If you loved playing with toys as a child; if you love to collect vintage toys and games; if you love journaling prompts to remember fond childhood memories; and if you love to color - this book is for you! This book is full of 50+ simple line drawings surrounded by fanciful borders on coloring pages that will keep you busy for weeks or months! The simple toy illustrations are hand-drawn, so the lines are organic and feel natural versus mechanically perfect.

This book also includes BONUS coloring pages from the artist's other coloring books. This two-volume set of simple drawings would be an excellent gift or fun activity at nursing homes, assisted living residences, or in writing classes as a prompt for remembering toys played with as children.

This book is full of fascinating micro-biographies of women who had a significant part in the history of the world, and earned a little bit of publicity. These women have achieved or earned a place in history and show women are definitely just as important, and just as smart, if not smarter, than some men. Young girls should be provided this book to explore what other women have done-from warriors who fought for their kingdom to scientists who invented the Kevlar(c) vest, Scotchgard(TM) fabric protectant, the invention of paper, and silk processing to make cloth; developed theories of nuclear fission and gravity; and teachers, professors, and educators in some of the most advanced and prestigious universities in the world. About 10 years ago, I started documenting interesting histories of women who played parts in history, science, politics, math, engineering, and the fine arts (writing and performance). These interesting biographies about these fascinating females provide sources for more study via a short summary - saving time for the reader by showing her (or him) where they could find more publicly available information about the woman in whom they had an interest. The result? A compilation of hundreds of bios of women who have made our lives better today due to their work, their discoveries, their inventions, their research, or because of from their stubbornness to get something accomplished that needed to be done. How can this source such be used? It is a valid starting point for women's studies in university or college settings. Use it as a guide to show that even when the picture looks bleak, good things can happen. The text can be a motivational guide to illustrate even if you are starting at the bottom, you can break through the glass ceiling and achieve great things - as a woman!

The artist/photographer took a walking tour of the streets and buildings in December throughout the beloved restored area to document the stunningly beautiful 2017 door wreaths and holiday decorations.In creating the wreaths and décor, restrictions and instructions were the elements of each holiday design had to be created with materials in existence during the colonial era. The wreaths and décor are predominantly made of natural materials - dried fruit, flowers, and vegetables, magnolia leaves, sycamore tree seed balls, artichokes, dried okra pods, apples and pineapples, persimmons, oyster shells, evergreen boughs and fresh or dried leaves, oranges spiked with cloves, lotus pods, apples, wheat and corn husks, baskets, feathers, and pine cones. The holiday designers added 'trades-related' elements to some wreaths such as dried tobacco leaves and clay pipes, toys and soaps, cotton-bolls and threads, tankards and playing cards, a miniature anvil and hammer, nutmeg graters and walnuts, musical flutes and song sheets, a tiny yule log surrounded by straw and wheat stars, miniature wigs and shoe soles, wooden spoons and dried orange slices, twisted paper (into rolls or roses), and shiny tin leaves, to name a few.What is even better than getting black and white grayscale photos to color?
