Hosting the Stranger $90 Hosting the Stranger features ten powerful meditations on the theme of interreligious hospitality by eminent scholars and practitioners from the five different wisdom traditions: Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist and Islamic. By gathering thinkers from different religious traditions around the same timely topic of what it means to “host the stranger,” this text enacts the hospitality it investigates, facilitating a hopeful and constructive dialogue between the world’s major religions. The first part of the volume offers five different hermeneutic readings that each wrestle with what interreligious hospitality means and what it demands. The second part is divided equally between the five different religious perspectives on hosting the stranger, with two thinkers representing each religion. Together these essays remind us of the urgent need for interreligious hospitality, and more importantly, they testify to its ongoing possibility. |

Hosting the Monster $75.6 Hosting the Monster responds to the call of the monstrous with, not rejection, but invitation. Positing the monster as that which defies classification, the essays in this collection are an ongoing engagement with that which lies outside of established boundaries. With chapters ranging from the monstrous mother or the deformed child to subjectivity in transition, this volume is not only of interest to film and gender scholars and literary and cultural theorists but also students of popular culture or horror. Its wide appeal stems from its invitation both to entertain the monster and to widen the call to and the listening for the monsters that have not yet, and perhaps must not yet, come calling back. This sense of hospitality and non-hostility is one guiding principle of this collection, suggesting that the ability to survey and research the otherwise may reveal more about the subjectivity of the self through the wisdom of the other, however monstrous the manifestation. |

Halloween Party Hosting 101
Halloween only comes once every year so all people look forward to it. With Halloween come a lot of parties, costume parties, soirees, and all the other fun-filled gathering of people dressed up in Halloween Costumes. Hence, this year, if you want to make a good impression out of your Halloween party, then below are some of the things that you should remember.
First, keep a theme for the Halloween Costumes. If you want your party to be remembered by your guests, making them standout beyond a common theme will be very good. Always keep in mind that standing out is easier when the party theme is the same for all guests. This way, your guests’ creativity will surely show a lot of good things.
Second thing to do is to always remember that when the going gets tough, the party gets games. Party games on Halloween are so fun. You can play a Bring Me the Character Game where they would have to find a certain individual dressed as that character within the whole block. In fact, you can make this into a block party at your neighborhood if you like.
Third thing to do is keep the refreshments rolling but the alcohol just dripping drops every once in a while. A friendly adult party is one that is very much cool, warm and where everyone has fun without getting drunk. That way, every person at the party will remember the party all year long and how fun it really was.
Fourth thing to remember is to keep emergency kits ready always. Emergencies such as bruising due to so much dancing should be attended at immediately to keep the party going. Remember that being ready for anything will make your party one of the best ones and most reliable ones to come in.
Fifth thing to keep in mind is to always adjust your party based on what your guests need. For example, if you were originally planning for an adult party but your guests brought in their kids, you can maybe add up some wholesome spice to your party by making the kids play and allowing them to have fun.
Finally, always remember that whatever happens, you are always on the right track of the party when you greet all of your guests properly. Keep in touch with them and always remember that they are your guests and you’re the party host.
