These annotations can be refined and further processed, where required. The approach followed is that of manual annotation, in which various types of annotation are added to a digital text by the user. You will annotate aspects of the narrator’s style and attitude in Edgar Allan Poe’s short story The Tell-Tale Heart. The tool is particularly suitable for literary applications, but can also be used for more formalized (e.g. CATMA (Computer Assisted Text Markup and Analysis) is a web-based and freely available annotation, analysis and visualization tool for texts and annotations. This tutorial introduces you to the basic project coordination and annotation functions of CATMA.

The Outsider gives him the interesting opportunity to take that style and apply it to a story that is, well, of Stephen King’s imagination. Price has written a lot of fiction, film, and television about murder investigation (and other crime-y things) with his trademark gritty realism flecked with the weary poetics of the everyday. I think I like it? It helps immensely that Richard Price is doing much of the writing. Which makes The Outsider both really enveloping and kind of exhausting, a deliberate, ponderous mystery that grinds and allures. But on premium cable of the new millennium, King’s mood of impossible despair-slow, oppressive, headache-y horror that really seeps into your skin-has time to build. The series is based on a novel by Stephen King, a master of suffocating dread whose work is usually condensed into film form (or, often in the old days, into janky network TV miniseries). If a midnight-black crime series like True Detective just isn’t enough for you, its scope too limited to the bounds of the tangible world and thus not scary enough, perhaps HBO’s latest investigation show, The Outsider (premiering January 12), will do the trick. She is the only female panelist, and a recording of the event goes viral. Participating in a discussion panel on reproductive care and empowering books for girls, Alix breastfeeds her two-year-old daughter throughout. The business, “LetHer Speak,” promotes female empowerment through letter writing. Alix Chamberlain is a white, older millennial woman with two children living in New York and running a business that she started at the height of the blogger era. The novel opens in 2015, when Hillary Clinton is running for president. Reid has constructed a complex tale of twenty-first-century millennial life that scrutinizes racism in America today. Now, as protests against police violence and institutional racism take place all over the world, ignited by the murders of Black Americans including George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, the relevance of this book cannot be overstated. Covering race, class, job insecurity, and gender politics, this book has resonated with a large cross section of readers. In January, Such a Fun Age was the featured title for Reese Witherspoon’s monthly book club. Kiley Reid’s debut novel made a splash before being released, with advance praise coming from sources as varied as Jojo Moyes and Lena Waithe, Entertainment Weekly and The New York Times.

Refreshing debut novel that proves one thing: there’s not enough data in His experiences in the former Soviet Union were the most illuminating for me. Nowadays our biggest problems seem to be whether we can get a wi-fi connection but in those days even finding a good quality pencil to write with was a challenge for Hughes! I couldn’t help thinking how difficult travelling was back then. I learned some fascinating information about the world and also about Hughes, the most interesting was perhaps that he was quite good friends with Alfred Koestler, whom he travelled with. He showed that the world was a lot more diverse than many thought, even back then. His experiences as a black man were even more so as race did play a part in his travels. His insights were really fascinating and thought-provoking. Some of the places he visited were Haiti, Cuba, the former Soviet Union, and Japan. The autobiography focused on Hughes’ thoughts and experiences while travelling around the world during the 1930s, and how his travels shaped his craft and personal philosophy. His influence on Black world literature is immense.” In the preface, Margaret Walker says about Hughes, “Langston Hughes loved life and all people, and at the same time worked diligently at his craft and art of writing and was one of the most prolific writers in this (20th) Century. This was an incredibly enjoyable autobiography of one of my favourite poets, Langston Hughes. She then opens the door of the cave to find Prince Ronald - but instead of being grateful, he's criticizing her for her appearance: "You smell like ashes, your hair is all tangled and you are wearing a dirty old paper bag. He's so exhausted by the end that he falls right asleep. She finds the dragon in his cave, and brings him out by appealing to his vanity: "Is it true that you are the smartest and fiercest dragon in the whole world?" When he says yes, Elizabeth cunningly puts him through a series of trials to test that claim. Unfortunately, an evil dragon snatches Prince Ronald and incinerates everything around Elizabeth in the process - including her clothes! Undaunted, Elizabeth finds an old paper bag, puts it on and pursues her prince. The picture book stars Princess Elizabeth, who's vying to marry the handsome Prince Ronald.

The publisher (or author) gave us the instruction to take down this book from our catalog. I was almost tempted to tell him the price has increased but that would’ve been a very stupid thing to do, and I’ll explain why. I continued to ignore him and go about my life. This man has texted me from another friend’s phone, messaged me on SC and IG begging for my attention. After a few weeks of him talking to himself I decided to block his phone number. He tried to bargain and barter saying he’ll bring drinks, weed, and give me $400. I told him that I would need $1k if he wants to continue seeing me. He has given me cash before ($500 or less) each time when I’ve asked but I’ve reached a point where anything less than $1k isn’t worth my time when it comes to dating and men. This was before my level up journey and he expressed interest in me, yet I didn’t know my true power at that time. The backstory: I met him through a mutual friend and quickly noticed his trick potential.
