Horror Film Directors, 1931-1990
["Dennis Fischer"]

An exhaustive study of the major directors of horror films in the past six decades, a genre always popular but often critically snubbed. For each director there is a complete filmography including television work, a career summary, critical assessment, and behind-the-scenes production information. The book covers not only films both old and new, but also directors from Italy, Spain, Australia, Belgium, and elsewhere. Fifty directors are covered in depth, but there is an additional section on the hopeless, the obscure, the promising, and the up-and-coming.

Zen and the Art of Recording

In this book, the third in the Zen and the Art Of series, Mixerman distills the inescapable technical realities of recording down to understandable and practical terms. Whether musician or self-taught recordist, whether at home or in a full-blown studio complex, you'll discover a definitive blueprint for recording within the current realities of the business, without ever losing focus on the core consideration--the music itself. As Mixerman writes: "The moment you start to think in musical terms, your recordings will improve a hundredfold." This enhanced multimedia e-book edition brings recordists deeper into the concepts covered in the text. It features over an hour's worth of supplemental videos in which Mixerman demonstrates various recording techniques in a number of recording spaces. The clips provide invaluable insight into what to listen for when choosing gear and placing mics, and Mixerman walks us through all of this in well over an hour of clips. This multimedia eBook is an absolute must-have for anyone who enjoys recording music and wants to get better doing it.

Antique Apples from Kilcherman's Christmas Cove Farm
["Phyllis Bye Kilcherman"]

null
Antique Apples from Kilcherman’s Christmas Cove Farm explores an orchard amidst the rolling hills of northern Michigan’s Leelanau County. The farm grows heirloom apples, two hundred and-fifty varieties of them that are rapidly disappearing from our modern food supply. Run by two octogenarians, Phyllis and John Kilcherman maintain a showroom/tasting room in a huge barn that also displays John’s pop bottle collection, one of the largest in the country. On any given day you can see John buttoned into an apple collecting apron bringing more apples into the barn and Phyllis standing on the cold cement floor sharing one of her recipes with customers from near and far who visit this unique place in the Fall. The book features the family and the farm’s history beginning with its public offering by the U.S. Government in 1851. Color photos of the orchard in three seasons, photographed by Dianne Carroll Burdick, capture the living apple community from the bee’s pollination to apple harvest and all points of apple growing in-between. Phyllis shares recipes both traditional and creative uses of apples in meatloaf, coleslaw, baked beans as well as her most prized and sought after recipe from her grandmother, The Apple Pie. The book is laced with folklore, poems, and the apple histories some of which go back to the Crimea peninsula of Russia. In fact, apples first got to the U.S. from their native Kazakhstan via Western Europe in the 17th century. Americana at its best in 144 color pages that wouldn’t disappoint.

为什么犹太人可凭一己之智慧,就把全世界的钱都赚到自己的口袋里?为什么他们面对疯狂的杀戮,仍然精神不死?为什么在世界群雄争先崛起之时,他们的“世界顶尖商人”的黄金椅仍然毫不动摇?今天,《塔木德》被赋予了更多的意义,它不再只是犹太人的精神支柱和行动指南,更被世人看做智慧与金钱合一的象征,经商与为人合一的象征。 本书所讲述的塔木德是犹太民族中商界精英引领风骚的根源所在。凝聚了上千年来2000余名犹太学者对本民族历史、民族文化、民族智慧的发掘、思考和提炼,是整个犹太民族生活方式的指明灯。从生到死,从零开始到亿万富翁,从经营到变革,犹太人从未停止过对它的阅读和膜拜。 本书凝聚了上千年来2000余名犹太学者对自己民族历史、民族文化、民族智慧的发掘、思考和提炼,是整个犹太民族生活方式的航图,是滋养世代犹太人的精神支柱,是其他民族的人走进犹太文化,接触犹太智慧的一扇必经大门。 有人将《塔木德》称为是犹太人的第二部《圣经》。想了解犹太人经典生存智慧的读者,这本书一定不能错过。 无论是经商赚钱,还是家庭生存,无论是在外打拼,还是与人相处,《塔木德》当中都给出了富有智慧的答案。想让自己过得更好,想让生活从容幸福,这本书不可不读。 《塔木德》是犹太人生命的一部分。与其说犹太人用生命保护了他们的法典,使它能够不断地延续下去,倒不如说《塔木德》给犹太人指明了方向,使他们能够战胜厄运,得以生存发展。 直到今天,仍有很多犹太人把《塔木德》视为最可贵的圣物,并当作生活的慰藉和心灵的避难所。 如果说《圣经》旧约是一部永恒的书,那么《塔木德》则是犹太人日常生活的伴侣,充满着生命的智慧和应付危机的良谋。它不是史书,却在谈史;它不是人物志,却在述说人物;它不是百科全书,却包罗万象。正是它孕育了西方文明的模式,成为犹太智慧的源泉。 《塔木德》与《圣经》、柏拉图的《理想国》、亚里士多德的《政治学》和伊斯兰的《古兰经》,并称为影响人类文明的巨著,是真正的传世经典。

Il Gigante: Michelangelo, Florence, and the David 1492-1504
["Anton Gill"]
3.46

At the turn of the 16th century, Italy was a turbulent territory made up of independent states, each at war with or intriguing against its neighbor. There were the proud, cultivated, and degenerate Sforzas in Milan, and in Rome, the corrupt Spanish family of the Borgia whose head, Rodrigo, ascended to St Peter's throne as Pope Alexander VI. In Florence, a golden age of culture and sophistication ended with the death of the greatest of the Medici family, Lorenzo the Magnificent, giving way to an era of uncertainty, cruelty, and religious fundamentalism. In the midst of this turmoil, there existed the greatest concentration of artists that Europe has ever known. Influenced by the rediscovery of the ancient cultures of Greece and Rome, artists and thinkers such as Botticelli and da Vinci threw off the shackles of the Middle Ages to produce one of the most creative periods in history - the Renaissance. This is the story of twelve years when war, plague, famine, and chaos made their mark on a volatile Italy, and when a young, erratic genius, Michelangelo Buonarroti, made his first great statue - the David. It was to become a symbol not only of the independence and defiance of the city of Florence but also of the tortured soul who created it. This is a wonderful history of the artist, his times, and one of his most magnificent works.

“Jaunu Gūtenmorgenu mēs jau sen bijām pelnījuši. Gan lasītāji, gan visa latviešu literatūra. Un nu to atkal esam sagaidījuši caur Māra Bērziņa laipnu roku. Arī otrreizējā tikšanās ir priecīga, jautra, jestra un līksma. Turklāt Gūtenmorgens, ārēji visnotaļ pelēcīgs tipāžs ar sievu un bērniem, ar savu televizoru un alus pudeli, ar vāri nojaušamu tieksmi uz daiļām mākslām un skaistām sievietēm, it kā varētu pretendēt uz tautā iemīļoto vidējā latvieša tēlu, tomēr viņš ir krietni āķīgāks. Viņam piemīt mūsdienās visnotaļ retā spēja domāt. Viņš tiecas izprast, kā ir būt iedzītam stūrī, vai vidus ir labākā vieta cilvēkam, kas ir punkts un vai divas reizes var iebrist vienā un tajā pašā jūrā. Viņu interesē ārbūtnes un Visuma ētikas kodekss, trešā auss un Apple kartupeļu mikročipsi. Smieklīgi, vai ne? Lai gan ļoti vajadzīgi ilgi spējīgai dzīvošanai.” Gundega Blumberga Grāmatas mākslinieks Jānis Esītis

Its aim is to show students how gender-related expectations interact with other cultural assumptions and stereotypes, as well as with social and economic conditions, to affect women’s experiences and behavior. The text also describes the ways in which women’s lives differ between cultures.

Peregrinos del Amianto es un trabajo periodístico que narra la aparición de los primeros casos de afectados por el uso del amianto en los astilleros de Ferrol, en Galicia. Desde la experiencia personal de las víctimas, el relato va desgranando el papel que han jugado todos los implicados en uno de los mayores escándalos de salud laboral de España. El trabajo llevado a cabo por la asociación Agavida, los juicios con las empresas contratantes, la implicación de la prensa o la labor de los sindicatos y personal sanitario, son algunos de los aspectos que permiten conocer mejor los efectos del asbesto, que cada año se cobra la vida de más de mil personas que estuvieron expuestas a este material.

Final Analysis: The Untold Story of the Susan Polk Murder Case
["Catherine Crier"]
3.38

In October 2002, Susan Polk, a housewife and mother of three, was arrested for the murder of her husband, Felix. The arrest in her sleepy northern California town kicked off what would become one of the most captivating murder trials in recent memory, as police, local attorneys, and the national media sought to unravel the complex web of events that sent this seemingly devoted housewife over the edge. Now, with the exclusive access and in-depth reporting that made A Deadly Game a number one New York Times bestseller, Catherine Crier turns an analytical eye to the story of Susan Polk, delving into her past and examining how over twenty years of marriage culminated in murder. Tracing the family's history, Crier skillfully maneuvers the murky waters of the Polk's marriage, looking at the real story behind Susan, Felix, and their unorthodox courtship. When Susan was in high school, Felix, who was more than twenty years her senior, had been her psychologist, and it was during their sessions that the romantic entanglement began. From these troubling origins grew a difficult marriage, one which produced three healthy boys but also led to disturbing accusations of abuse from both spouses. With extraordinary detail, Crier dissects this dangerous relationship between husband and wife, exposing their psychological motivations and the painful impact that these motivations had on their sons, Adam, Eli, and Gabriel. Drawing on sources from all sides of the case, Crier masterfully reconstructs the tumultuous chronology of the Polk family, telling the story of how Susan and Felix struggled to control their rambunctious sons and their disintegrating marriage in the years and months leading up to Felix's death. But the history of the Polk family is only half the story. Here Crier also elucidates the methodical police work of the murder investigation, revealing never-before-seen photos and writings from the case file. In addition, she carefully scrutinizes the many twists and turns of the remarkable trial, exploring Susan's struggles with her defense attorneys and her shocking decision to represent herself. Dark, psychological, and terrifying, Final Analysis is a harrowing look at the recesses of the human mind and the trauma that reveals them.

The last thing Carrie wants to do is go to Della Splatnuk's birthday party. Everyone knows Della is weird, and Carrie's best friends have vowed not to go. But once Carrie is there, she begins to wonder whether Della is really all that bad, and whether all the kids who did not show up have ever given Della a chance.When Carrie looks within her own little soul to find an independence and conviction she didn't know she had, readers will learn that how people look doesn't always tell you what they are like inside. Just as Carrie learns amazing new things about herself, about Della and about friendship, children reading or listening to this story will learn to trust their own feelings when it comes to who is their friend, not the opinions of their peers. Lisa McCourt and Pat Porter previously combined their talents on "The Goodness Gorillas" (more than 110,000 copies sold).

Documenting Spain: Artists, Exhibition Culture, and the Modern Nation, 1929–1939
["Jordana Mendelson"]
5
1
null
The news media have given us potent demonstrations of the ambiguity of ostensibly truthful representations of public events. Jordana Mendelson uses this ambiguity as a framework for the study of Spanish visual culture from 1929 to 1939―a decade marked, on the one hand, by dictatorship, civil war, and Franco’s rise to power and, on the other, by a surge in the production of documentaries of various types, from films and photographs to international exhibitions. Mendelson begins with an examination of El Pueblo Español, a model Spanish village featured at the 1929 International Exposition in Barcelona. She then discusses Buñuel’s and Dalí’s documentary films, relating them not only to French Surrealism but also to issues of rural tradition in the formation of regional and national identities. Her highly original book concludes with a discussion of the 1937 Spanish Pavilion, where Picasso’s famed painting of the Fascist bombing of a Basque town―Guernica―was exhibited along with monumental photomurals by Josep Renau. Based upon years of archival research, Mendelson’s book opens a new perspective on the cultural politics of a turbulent era in modern Spain. It explores the little-known yet rich intersection between avant-garde artists and government institutions. It shows as well the surprising extent to which Spanish modernity was fashioned through dialogue between the seemingly opposed fields of urban and rural, fine art, and mass culture.

Built to Love: Creating Products That Captivate Customers
["Peter Boatwright"]
3.41

Leading companies do more than produce things that work better. Their products and services make customers feel better. They create captivating products that energize the marketplace and set the standard for what customers want and expect. But this isn’t something you can add on after the fact. Your products and services must be built to love from the very start. This book tells you why and shows you how. Peter Boatwright and Jonathan Cagan have worked with market-leading companies ranging from Fortune 100 corporations to niche firms in a variety of industries. They’ve found that for companies to form deep bonds with customers, emotions must be generated by a product itself—trying to associate emotions with a product simply through advertising is unreliable, expensive, and ultimately ineffective. They marshal stock market data that proves the bottom-line benefit of high-emotion products, as well as data showing that people are willing to pay more for products with emotionally rich features. After demonstrating that authentic product emotion really does pay off, Boatwright and Cagan move on to how —how emotion can be broken down into its core building blocks, how it can then be used to develop new products and services, and how product touch points, in particular visual touch points, deliver those emotions. Emotion can be built into any product or service—a point vividly illustrated through case studies from a variety of industries. Emotion is fundamental to all that is human, including the products we enjoy. Built to Love offers a clear method and a set of tools to help you gain loyal, even fanatical customers by going beyond mere efficiency and speaking to people’s deepest needs and wants.

Every kid who ever started fishing probably tried to catch a panfish with a worm. That setup has been the tried-and-true method for generations. There are other kinds of live bait that work just as well; maybe even better in some conditions and for certain fish. In addition to the chapter on Worms & Leeches, this book covers Baitfish, Insects, Salamanders & Frogs, Crustaceans and Other Natural Baits (such as salmon eggs and clams). Complete information on how to catch and keep these baits is followed by sections on how to actually use each live bait type. New on the freshwater-fishing scene in recent years is the use of dough baits and scents. Which one to choose, plus how and when to use each is fully explained. Equipment is discussed in hooks, bobbers, sinkers, rods, and reels. The authors suggest many tips for using different kinds of equipment in various fishing locations and situations. The final chapter matches common freshwater fish species with the best kind of live bait to use, depending on where the fish are and what time of year it is.

This magnum opus by author George Foot Moore (a Harvard professor in the history of religion) marks the culmination of a long rise of objective scholarship in the formerly parochial study of the Rabbinic period. The two-volume set provides a systematic account of Tannaitic Judaism, from the time of Herod to that of the Patriarch Judah, who edited and promulgated the Mishnah. It illustrates the complex development of the Jewish religion as both an ethical code and a mode of daily life. A full historical introduction traces this development from the fall of the Kingdom of Judah in 586 BCE, when a scattered people learned to rely on the school and the synagogue as the center of religious, intellectual, and social life.

Lia Keene was the perfect secretary. She knew how her boss liked his coffee, that he hated breakfast meetings and he was allergic to shellfish. He was also ruggedly handsome, wealthy, powerful, and completely off-limits, but that didn't stop him from starring in all her fantasies! She really did not want to go on the mandatory business trip with him, and possibly risk revealing her secret infatuation with him. But how could she refuse to go? Bryce Tanner had never given his secretary a second glance, until now. She’d always just been there – in her boring work-appropriate business suits, with her hair wadded up in a severe bun – while she quietly and efficiently did whatever was needed without a word of complaint. Until now. He didn’t understand what the big issue was with this trip, but he needed her there. And he always got what he wanted. It wasn’t until he went to pick her up the next morning to take her to the airport, that he caught a glimpse of the real woman hiding behind the efficient façade. There were a few signs around her apartment that she was interested in a submissive relationship. Would she consider one with him?

This textbook offers a concise but thorough treatment of the theory of special relativity for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students. Assuming no prior knowledge of relativity, the author elaborates the underlying logic and describes the subtleties and apparent paradoxes. The text also contains a large number of problems which cover the basic modes of thinking and calculating in special relativity. Emphasis is placed on developing the student's intuitive understanding of space-time geometry along with the necessary methods of four-tensor calculus, though three-dimensional methods are also described. This updated new edition contains additional examples and problems, and the chapter on relativistic mechanics of continua has been substantially rewritten.

Ten years before the start of the American Revolution, backcountry settlers in the North Carolina Piedmont launched their own defiant bid for economic independence and political liberty. The Regulator Rebellion of 1766-71 pitted thousands of farmers, many of them religious radicals inspired by the Great Awakening, against political and economic elites who opposed the Regulators' proposed reforms. The conflict culminated on May 16, 1771, when a colonial militia defeated more than 2,000 armed farmers in a pitched battle near Hillsborough. At least 6,000 Regulators and sympathizers were forced to swear their allegiance to the government as the victorious troops undertook a punitive march through Regulator settlements. Seven farmers were hanged. Using sources that include diaries, church minutes, legal papers, and the richly detailed accounts of the Regulators themselves, Marjoleine Kars delves deeply into the world and ideology of free rural colonists. She examines the rebellion's economic, religious, and political roots and explores its legacy in North Carolina and beyond. The compelling story of the Regulator Rebellion reveals just how sharply elite and popular notions of independence differed on the eve of the Revolution.

This is not a book on how to get more sex from Thai women or how to survive on a shoestring budget. I have lived with a woman who was born in Bangkok for over three years and been married to her for two years. If it were not for my exposure to her and her family, I would now know how to survive in Bangkok ... but I would only have a superficial understanding of Thais and Thai culture. Unlike some books written on relocating to Thailand, I don't think Thailand turns out to be a wonderful country for everyone. It works very well for me. And in this guide you will learn why. More than anything, this guide is about Thai culture. If you are coming here from the USA it will be hard for you to overestimate how different Thai culture is from that in the USA. In the USA you have literally hundreds of religions. In Thailand, something like 95% of the population is Buddhist. Buddhism is reflected everywhere in Thai life. Many of the foreigners I meet who are confused by what they run into here on a day-to-day basis have not looked into Buddhism. In my opinion, if you don't have an appreciation for and understanding of Buddhism, you will not end up being comfortable with Thai culture and living in Thailand for any length of time. I'm very happy living in Bangkok with my Thai wife. In this book I've tried to convey some of what that life is like … and to compare my quality of life here to what I experienced in the USA. Part of my motivation for writing the book is thinking that eventually something might happen to me while living here that will sour me on Thailand. At that point, I'll want something to remind me of why I chose to live here. So far, I'm still on my honeymoon. I don't think Thailand or Thai culture is perfect by any means. But, from my experience, the positives far outweigh the negatives. To be very honest, there are many things about Thai culture and how Thais think that I just do not understand. For example, Thais are generally a very nonviolent people. Rather than kill stray or unwanted dogs, they abandon them at temples or leave them to fend for themselves on the street. But… I've been told by more than one person that hiring someone to kill a person who you want killed is not that difficult in Thailand. The strange part of all this is that it seems to be morally ok to have someone killed … but not morally acceptable to do it yourself. Thailand is full of extreme contrasts and apparent contradictions. I've tried in this book to communicate some of this. For example, Bangkok is an adult Disneyland without brakes. If you have the money, you can buy most anything. But … the ones who get the most respect are the monks (even the King of Thailand shows a monk respect by waiing him). So, it's the ones who are able to turn their backs on all the worldly pleasures who are given the most respect. If you come to live here you will gradually come to think you understand something about Thailand. But I think maybe the experience of living here will actually teach you more about the country you just left. All those things you took for granted for all those years start to seem like just one of many choices. For example, in the USA people usually consider their home to be a personal statement of who they are. Americans generally like to invite people to visit their home. Thais, on the other hand, usually meet friends at a restaurant to socialize. Thais are reluctant to invite friends to their home. Those in charge of advertising Thailand to the world have chosen the phrase "amazing Thailand" to promote tourism. In my opinion, this is not false advertising. I hope my book can help prepare you for what you will find in Thailand…and to decide if it is really a good choice for you.

Pour ce cinquième épisode de la série, François Barcelo nous fait découvrir un nouveau personnage d’importance, le père du jeune Maurice Monette de Saint-Romain-des-Champs, alias Momo de Sinro. Après cinq années passées au loin et une nouvelle vie auprès d’une nouvelle compagne, Emmanuel Masson souhaite renouer avec son fils et, qui sait, peut-être le convaincre de venir vivre à Nice. Momo se laissera-t-il tenter ?C’est avec beaucoup de finesse que l’auteur, par le biais du prétexte agréable du voyage, nous présente une facette inconnue de la vie familiale de Momo. Non seulement Momo fait-il son premier voyage en avion, découvre-t-il la Côte d’Azur et l’accent du sud de la France, mais il devra aussi choisir sa destinée. Voici donc un roman qui allie à merveille émotion et humour et qui ravira les jeunes lecteurs de 7 ans et plus.À l’aube des vacances, Momo reçoit une invitation épatante. Aller rejoindre son père, qu’il n’a pas vu depuis cinq ans, à Nice où celui-ci possède un restaurant. Mais Momo n’a jamais voyagé seul et Lucie, sa mère, hésite à le laisser partir sans surveillance. Ses réticences tomberont rapidement lorsque M. Pacossi, leur célèbre voisin, peintre de profession, propose d’accompagner Momo pour son premier passage outre-Atlantique. Ainsi commence une folle équipée qui fait de ce périple une succession d’événements inattendus, à commencer par l’absence du père de Momo à l’aéroport. Momo ne se souvient plus du nom de famille de son père (il porte celui de sa mère) et il ne se rappelle plus le nom du restaurant. Nice est une grande ville. Comment s’y repérer? Heureusement, le hasard fait bien les choses et c’est par l’entremise de Brigitte, la nouvelle conjointe du père de Momo, qu’ils pourront enfin renouer connaissance. Momo découvre un environnement fort différent de Saint-Romain-des-Champs et où il serait bien tentant de vivre en permanence. Mais pourrait-il se passer de Lucie et de la belle Jessica Laliberté ?

Leah is a human in a largely paranormal world. An author by trade, she's both creative and caring. But after seeing her bathing in a local dock, nether of those things are what first caught Mark's eyes. Mark is your typical lion shifter; tall, powerful and handsome. What's more, he's just found the woman he wants to make his mate! While Leah's initial reaction is to dismiss the shifter getting an eye full of her bathing, she soon can't help but be seduced by this powerful male. And the fact that Mark's a lawyer who can potentially help them win her best friend's discrimination case; well, that's just icing on the cake. Join Mark and Leah as they explore each other, have a baby, and fight for what is right. Suitable for over 18s only due to sex scenes so hot, you'll be roaring in satisfaction. ;)

The greatest artist of the 18th century, Francisco de Goya began his career as an apprentice to a local artist where one of his jobs was adding draperies and modesty items to nude figures in religious paintings; for this he was titled “Reviser of Indecent Paintings.” But by the age of 40, Goya had established himself as a leading Spanish artist. Goya simultaneously pursued a number of disparate projects, commissions he received from prestigious churches and royalty, as well as producing several lengthy series of lithographs to express his dislike of several subjects, notably Spanish high society and war. Brushing into controversy on several occasions, Goya threaded the political needle of alternating French and Spanish rule of his home country of Spain as well as successfully navigated the choppy waters of the Spanish Inquisition when it questioned the morality of La Maja Desnuda, one of his most famous paintings.

In Ava Stone's By Any Other Name... Lady Philippa Casemore caused quite a scene at her very first ball of her very first season. She even landed herself, somehow, on the pages of the infamous betting book at White's gentleman's club. Unfortunately, she doesn't remember one moment of the night in question. Not the music. Not the notorious rake she'd dragged into the middle of the dance floor. Not the flask of opium-laced brandy she'd downed without realizing it's contents... Jason York, the wicked Earl of St. Austell, can't quite forget the lady who stole his breath away the previous night. Of course, his broken nose, courtesy of the girl's brother, did have a way of making an impression. When he stumbles into Lady Philippa the next day, his ego is more than bruised when she doesn't seem to recall him at all and a scheme to make certain she never forgets him again quickly forms in Jason's mind. * * * In Jane Charles's Landing A Laird... Heiress Lady Moira Kirkwood will do anything it takes to marry a laird to take her north - far, far away from London and her domineering mother. Unfortunately, a pair of gentlemen overhear her jest about Scotland and compromising a fellow if she has to. Before the sun has risen the next day, Moira’s name and a scandalous wager have found themselves inside the infamous betting book at White’s. One penniless gentleman after another begs Gideon Baxter, Viscount Ainsely, for his assistance in wooing Lady Moira. Unfortunately, Gideon would like to woo the charming lady himself. If only she cared more for him than for the location of his estate, he’d could be assured of where her true feelings lie. * * * In Jerrica Knight-Catania's The Marriage Trap... When Miss Patience Findley discovers, at her first ball of her first Season, just how much her father's scandal has affected her chances of marriage, she resigns herself to being alone and dying a spinster. That is, until she hears that her friends' names have landed in the Betting Book at White's. In a moment of desperation, she asks her reprobate cousin to place a bet on her behalf, in hopes of trapping an unsuspecting gentleman into marriage. Tristan Wallford, Lord Swaffham, loves a good challenge. So when his friend, Rowan Findley, claims that his cousin Patience cannot be cured of her melancholy state, Tristan lays a bet that he will be the one to cure her. He could certainly use the money, after all. But as the game begins, Tristan begins to realize that not only does Miss Findley not need curing, but she might be worth trapping for himself.

"If the brothels are closed, how do you plan to replace the six and a half million dollars in tax revenue they generate each year?"

After asking that fated question, Allison King found herself in the limelight and decided to campaign for a vacant seat on the town council, her feared stalker resurfaced, and the chain of events the question put in motion would cost seven people their lives.Allison's goal had been to retire to a small, out of the way town in Nevada and leave her sordid past, as one of the top grossing star/producers in the porn industry, behind. Now, though, she found herself embroiled in a fight for her life.Does she have what it takes to overcome the political corruption, intrigue, and murder that permeates the town and still save the adult video empire she created in Los Angeles?

Finns in the United States: A History of Settlement, Dissent, and Integration
["Auvo Kostiainen"]
3.75

null
Late-arriving immigrants during the Great Migration, Finns were, comparatively speaking, a relatively small immigrant group, with about 350,000 immigrants arriving prior to World War II. Nevertheless, because of their geographic concentration in the Upper Midwest in particular, their impact was pronounced. They differed from many other new immigrant groups in a number of ways, including the fact that theirs is not an Indo-European language, and many old-country cultural and social features reflect their geographic location in Europe, at the juncture of East and West. A fresh and up-to-date analysis of Finnish Americans, this insightful volume lays the groundwork for exploring this unique culture through a historical context, followed by an overview of the overall composition and settlement patterns of these newcomers. The authors investigate the vivid ethnic organizations Finns created, as well as the cultural life they sought to preserve and enhance while fitting into their new homeland. Also explored are the complex dimensions of Finnish-American political and religious life, as well as the exodus of many radical leftists to Soviet Karelia in the 1930s. Through the lens of multiculturalism, transnationalism, and whiteness studies, the authors of this volume present a rich portrait of this distinctive group.

Дневник на чумавата година • Мол Фландърс
["Daniel Defoe"]
4.03

Дневник на чумавата година: „Дневник на чумавата година“ не е докумнетално четиво. Дефо е бил бебе по време на голямата чума от 1665 г., но фактите и случките които описва са от първо лице, наистина живяло по време на чумата в Лондон. Даже в увода на книгата се споменава че този дневник е едно от малкото псевдоисторически произведения, което се приема с доверие от историците. И наистина е така - даже и само като човек чете седмичните статистически справки за починалите от чумата от различните лондонски енории, които Дефо едва ли е измислил и от които човек настръхва. Описанията на живота и порядките в Лондон и Англия през XVII в. е също достоверно и правдоподобно. От сегашна гледна точка тогавашното мислене и методи за борба с чумата и лечението й са колкото наивни, толкова и смешни, но за тогавашното общество са били напълно сериозни. Хората са нямали представа, че заразата се разпространява с ухапванята на бълхите, живеещи по плъховете, а не по въздуха. Лечението на заразените е ставало чрез разяждане с киселини или срязване на отоците по тялото на нещастните болни, за да изтече гнойта - разбира се, тези манипулации са били изпълнявани без упойка. А най-честото облекчение и утеха на болните е била религията и вярата, че това е Божие наказание за греховете им. *** Мол Фландърс: СПОЛУКИТЕ И НЕВОЛИТЕ НА ПРОЧУТАТА МОЛ ФЛАНДЪРС родена в Нюгейт, която през разнообразния си живот, продължил шест десетилетия без да се смятат детските й години, дванадесет години беше държанка, пет пъти — съпруга (от които един път на собствения си брат), дванадесет години крадла, осем години заточеница във Вирджиния и накрая се покая, забогатя, заживя честно и умря в разкаяние Написано според нейните собствени спомени ЛОНДОН 1722 Тя се ражда в тогавашния лондонски затвор Нюгейт, изоставена е и отгледана от цигани. След това попада в приют и изведнъж й провървява, като една дама от висшето лондонско общество я взема за отглеждане. Един от синовете на тази дама я прелъстява и това според нея и тогавашното мислене е грях, който съсипва живота й. Оттук започват неспирните й неволи... Движещата тема не е в различните любовни похождения и приключения на героинята, а се намира в доста по-прозаична причина. Отблъскващо и отвратително е да се чете, как тогавашните мъже са избирали съпругите си по зестрите им. Последният съпруг на Мол също се жени по сметка за нея, но, според автора, той бил правилният избор.

A combination of dynastic disputes, feudal quibbles, trade disagreements and historical antagonism resulted in the opening of the Hundred Years War in 1337. The first major English land victory in this conflict was the Battle of Crécy (1346). This pitted the French army, then considered the best in Europe, against the English under King Edward III. The battle established the longbow as one of the most feared weapons of the medieval period, a reputation reinforced at the bloody Battle of Poitiers                (1356) where much of the French nobility was slaughtered and their king captured by the English host.

We need this sense of timing when walking, dancing, writing, cutting with scissors, hammering in a nail or drawing. In fact, it is so essential that if someone lacks beat awareness, he or she will usually have difficulty with both gross and fine motor skills.

Excerpt from Three Addresses on the Relations Subsisting Between the White and Colored People of the United States Born on American soil in common with yourselves, deriv ing our bodies and our minds from its dust, centuries having passed away since our ancestors were torn from the Shores of Africa, we, like yourselves, hold ourselves to be in every sense Americans, and that we may, therefore, venture to Speak to you in a tone not lower than that which becomes earnest men and American citizens. Having watered your soil with our tears, enriched it with our blood, performed its roughest labor in time of peace, defended it against enemies in time of war, and at all times been loyal and true to its best interests, we deem it no arrogance or presumption to manifest now a com mon concern with you for its welfare, prosperity, honor and glory.

Advice from a Wiseman
["Emmanuel Ebah"]

This book presents four heartwarming and breathtaking scenarios, whereby a great Wiseman demonstrates extraordinary wisdom in resolving complex and difficult situations faced by wisdom seekers. Sango Ngando is an esteemed Wiseman in a small Town called Ocean Valley; and he is the serving sage in a well respected and longstanding lineage of sages in this town known as the Ngando lineage. As had been the case with previous sages, Sango Ngando dwells in the small charismatic mountain town of Ocean Valley, in an area known as Lineage Avenue. Documented history has it that, the Ngando Lineage is a longstanding solemn tradition, which came into existence ever since the incipience of Ocean Valley about 10.000 years ago. Since that time, 72 sages are said to have taken up the mandate of service in this highly esteemed Ngando Lineage. Sango Ngando VII is the seventy second serving sage in this honourable Lineage of immense wisdom and power. Every serving sage had always dwelled at Lineage Avenue, a spectacular and reviving area situated about two kilometres from the business district, which is graced by the exquisite presence of well maintained beguiling fresh trees. About 200 metres from the Ngando Lineage’s formal residential abode, Sango Ngando VII has set up a public service office, called Centre for Human Acceleration (CHA). There, he carries out scheduled consultation with members of the public thrice weekly; on Monday, Wednesday and Friday respectively. On these designated days, Sango Ngando grants audience to wisdom seekers, offering them the clearest and most insightful solutions to the complex problems they face in their personal and professional lives. For residents of Ocean Valley seeking to secure audience with Sango Ngando, Prior appointment is highly recommended but not mandatory. Sango Ngando grants audience to an eclectic spectrum of people, including, couples, students, business people, politicians, just to mention a few. Attendees of Sango Ngando’s public consultation sessions always seek advice and orientation regarding matters of a personal or non-personal character. Sango Ngando appeases their various plights by employing a combination of oral methods, including, direct explanation, aphorism, analogy, metaphor, riddles and narratives. The particular combination of methods Sango Ngando elects to respond to the wisdom seeker’s inquiry is determined by the very nature of that inquiry; and the perceived state of mind of the inquirer or wisdom seeker in question. On this particular serene Monday afternoon, Sango Ngando VII was scheduled to grant audience to four wisdom seekers as follows: Denis Penda, a second year student of psychology at Ocean Valley University; Juliana Ndile, a housewife in Ocean Valley; Dr. Peter Brown of Indigo clinic in Ocean Valley; and Mr. Michael Mondi, a prominent politician. This book presents the tremendous wisdom and unrivalled insight with which Sango Ngando resolves the problems of these four enthusiastic wisdom seekers. The wisdom displayed by Sango Ngando in appeasing the plights of these wisdom seekers may be of tremendous help in your own daily life.

Iran: My Grandfather
["Ali Alizadeh"]
3.84
25
5
A vanished, tattered black and white photograph, taken in Tehran in 1946. The image of a sombre and inscrutable middle-aged man called Salman Fuladvand, a lieutenant and controversial police chief under Iran's second last king. It is the memory of this photograph that begins Ali Alizadeh's story of his grandfather Salman's life, spanning Salman's youthful devotion to the advancement of his country and the emancipation of Iranian women, his conflicts with the shahs, his wrongful imprisonment, and his eventual embracing of Sufi mysticism. My Grandfather is a rare mix of narrative, memoir, history and personal exploration. It recounts Iran's journey from progressive idealism to the ravages of tyranny, imperialism and religious reaction. It is a testament to the mistakes of the past and the present, an examination of family and identity, and an interrogation of the meaning of home and belonging. As Alizadeh writes, this story is a thread to show the path out of the labyrinths. John Kinsella has Iran, My Grandfather is a work of recovery, resistance, and affirmation. I think one can say without risk of hyperbole that it is one of the most remarkable texts ever to have been published in Australia.

Leon bluffs about his skiing abilities on the chairlift and Beau follows the blowhard, expecting to observe expertise. He instead witnesses a spectacular tumble. While helping Leon get safely down the hill, Beau learns he’s friendlier after being humbled, and very handsome when he takes off his goggles. Leon invites Beau to spend time with him and his family, who are there to compete in a charity event. High-end ski gear, expensive restaurants, and a top-dollar charity event unsettle Beau and reveal to him he’s not quite in the same league. Beau isn’t easily intimidated, though. The glades and fresh powder are waiting, but Beau keeps choosing Leon over the slopes.

Isle of Wight in the Great War

The Isle of Wight went to war in August 1914 along with the rest of Britain. German waiters were arrested. The tourist trade slumped. Foreigners were denounced and lads from all walks of life flocked to the Colours. Then came privations, losses, hospitals full of the sick and crippled. After conscription was brought in tribunals were set up to catch draft-dodgers. Thousands of pounds were raised for the war effort and lectures, rallies and the local press all did their bit to keep morale high. There are no official figures for the Island's war dead, but 300 of the Isle of Wight Rifles fell on one day at Gallipoli in August 1915.The original plan to commemorate the dead was to erect a cross in Winchester but that changed so that every Island parish had a memorial of its own. Ex-Islanders from as far away as Australia and Canada volunteered to fight for king and country in this war to end all wars.

Making China Policy: Lessons from the Bush and Clinton Administrations
["Ramon H. Myers"]
4

This thoughtful volume is the first to evaluate comprehensively the formation and execution of U.S. policy toward China and Taiwan during the crucial twelve years of the Bush and Clinton administrations. Drawing on an unprecedented array of sources, a group of leading international experts explores the increasingly complex environment facing policymakers in the wake of the tragic events of Tiananmen, particularly the growing role played by interest group lobbies, media commentary, and Congress. All these influences combined to dismantle the bipartisan agreement that had supported positive relations with Beijing, replacing it with a more politicized and pluralized policy arena. The authors document how, within this new context, the Bush and Clinton administrations struggled to forge consensus, implement China policies, and maintain a modicum of relations with the PRC. The study focuses systematically on the range of domestic influences, but also considers the less-obvious but vital roles played by European and Asian nations, as well as Taiwan and China itself. Offering novel interpretations based on pathbreaking research, this book will be indispensable for all those interested in understanding the intricacies that influence the delicate relationship between the United States, China, and Taiwan.

“In this collection commissioned by Amy Scholder, nine original essays explore the specific and personal impact of cultural icons.” —Publishers Weekly   Whose poster hung on your wall as a teenager? Whose record did you wear out? Whose life story could you not resist? Fascination works in mysterious ways—it can be born out of inspiration, or repulsion, or both. In these daring essays, some of the most provocative writers of our time offer a private view on a public figure. In the process, they reveal themselves in beautiful and unexpected ways, blurring the line between biography and memoir.   Original essays include Introduction by Amy Scholder, Mary Gaitskill on Linda Lovelace, Rick Moody on Karen Dalton, Johanna Fateman on Andrea Dworkin, Danielle Henderson on bell hooks, Hanne Blank on MFK Fisher, Kate Zambreno on Kathy Acker, Justin Vivian Bond on Karen Graham, Jill Nelson on Aretha Franklin, and Zoe Pilger on Mary Gaitskill   “A smart plunge into fandom’s sober fringe.” —Wayne Koestenbaum, author of My 1980s and Other Essays

DB Cooper and the FBI: A Case Study of America's Only Unsolved Skyjacking
["Bruce A. Smith"]

In 1971, a man known as DB Cooper hijacked a Northwest Orient airliner flying from Portland, Oregon to Seattle, Washington. After exchanging the passengers at SEA-TAC airport for $200,000 and four parachutes, Cooper instructed the pilots to fly him to "anywhere in Mexico.” A few minutes after take-off, he lowered the aft staircase and jumped into the chilly, rainy night skies north of Portland.He has never been seen since, and his identity is still unknown. After forty years of investigation the FBI still doesn’t know who Cooper was or if he survived, and nothing has ever been found of the skyjacking—no parachutes, no body or clothes, nor any of the money, except for $5,800 a young boy found eight years later buried on a Columbia River beach. Adding to the intrigue, no one knows how the money got there or when.As a result, it is as if Cooper came from nowhere and returned there when he made his getaway.Now after years of research and writing, a comprehensive case history of the skyjacking is available, and the reader can examine the facts of the case, and assess the FBI's efforts to find DB Cooper. Shockingly, the Bureau’s investigation has been crippled by lost evidence, inaccurate record-keeping, and ineffective leadership. As we learned in 9-11, the FBI has difficulty "connecting the dots" in complicated investigations that span multiple jurisdictions, and the same is true with DB Cooper.For example: the FBI gave DB Cooper a 40-hour head start before anyone went looking for him in the woods of southeast Washington State. More troubling, critical evidence has been lost—the eight cigarette butts Cooper left on the plane, which would give us his DNA profile via the dried saliva. Perhaps more disturbing, though, the cigarette butts went missing after their true value was realized in 2002, along with the documentation on the FBI's findings.In addition, the FBI’s chief technical expert, Earl Cossey, was murdered in 2013 when his credibility plummeted as Internet sleuths revealed his fraudulent and deceptive history, and how the FBI was duped. Or was it?But this book is more than a true-crime thriller. "DB Cooper and the FBI" reveals how law enforcement truly functions in our country, and so it delivers a measure of justice to the arrogant, the hubristic, and the guilty.

Sonja's Place
["Susanne O'Leary"]

Sonja’s story continues in the long awaited sequel to ‘A Woman’s Place’. In 1932, Sonja has left the Ford family and takes employment in an architect’s office in New York City, where she finds both a new career and the love of her life. She settles in Manhattan, where she experiences both unimagined bliss and heart wrenching grief. Her mourning is eased when a child comes into her life in a most unexpected fashion. Soon, Sonja finds that she is one of the first modern women, struggling to balance work, childcare and home life. As if difficult economic times, the threat of war and a marriage rife with conflicts aren’t enough, Sonja finds her whole world threatened when the past comes back to haunt her. Author’s This is the sequel to ‘A Woman’s Place’, my historical novel that was inspired by the life story of my great-aunt Julia and her daughter Sonja. In the second part of the first novel, you can read about the early life of Sonja, who, after a globe trotting life, ended up in America in 1930, as the social secretary to a wealthy family in New York. Her subsequent story was so fascinating that, encouraged by requests from readers, I decided to try to find out what happened next. After a long search I unearthed more of the letters and diaries and was able to piece together the rest of the life story of this beautiful, feisty woman. Her later life was just as full of challenges as her youth and during my research, I found myself transported to another era, that of the time before and after the second world war. Sonja’s story is both moving and exciting and I hope you will enjoy reading it.

Odjednom sam se opet sjetila kravljeg ludila. To ipak ne bi valjalo dobiti! I test je sto puta bolje rješenje no da te zahvati ta opaka bolest. Sada, kada promislim bolje, dobro je da Mravecu u kinu nisam dopustila da me poljubi. Pa on ima sve simptome kravljeg ludila: zbrkan je, depresivan, ne hoda pravilno i silno slini. Ipak, moj tata kaže da oboljeli od te bolesti ne luče slinu. To me, priznajem, zbunilo. No dobro, ako mu ne mogu postaviti dijagnozu kravljeg ludila, tada sigurno ima slinavku. Valjda se kod slinavke silno slini?! Pa to bi i bilo logično zaključiti po nazivu boleštine. Ipak, ne smijem to upitati tatu, jer će mu postati sumnjivo što se toliko raspitujem o bolestima. Možda sljedeći tjedan ipak odglumim jednu virozicu, zlu ne trebalo!

Excerpt from A Poor Man's Photography at the Great Pyramid: In the Year 1865; Compared With That of the Ordnance Survey Establishment, Subsidized by London Wealth and Under the Orders of Co; Sir Henry James, R. E., F. R. S. Director-General of the Ordnance Survey, at the Same Place Four Years Afterwards: A Discour After having acceded to request, and printed, as follows, my recent discourse before the Edinburgh Photographic Society in a somewhat revised and extended form, I could not but recognise with more or less of dismay, that although my own ideas of my photographs at the Great Pyramid in 1865 have been from the first, that they were lamentably faulty, imperfect, and unequal - causing me to yearn, though in vain, through each succeeding year, for any opening whereby I might try to replace them with some better attempts - yet in this discourse I have been insensibly led on by the argument to be speaking almost all the time as it were in defense of these very photographs, or as though I thought much more highly of them than I really do.
