3 . 59 stars ! alright , this is going to be a review on losing control and taking control as both follow the relationship of victoria and ian . it also makes my life a whole lot easier because i read the two stories consecutively so it ' s a little difficult for me to distinguish between them . victoria is struggling to make ends meet as her mother is diagnosed with a second bout of cancer . she currently works as a bike messenger , her job opportunities are limited because she is dyslexic . victoria then
jules ' exploration of ecstasy is an intellectual and emotional odyssey balancing personal experience , interviews and readings from ancient and modern philosophers that will change the way you think about how you feel . from aristotle and plato , via the bishop of london and sister bliss , radical jihadis and silicon valley transhumanists , the art of losing control is a funny and life - enhancing journey through under - explored terrain .
in theory , it’s incredible that we get to see autobiographical movies by biophysicists with phd’s from harvard , and i love the idea that scientists—or dentists , police officers , cobblers , whomever—get to translate their work into stories for film . but losing control is not a personal story ; it doesn’t offer a unique perspective or a portrait of experience . it’s a poor approximation of a genre built around artifice and cliché .

written and directed by valerie weiss , a philadelphia native who earned dual degrees from princeton university in molecular biology and theater , losing control begins with an epigram citing the heisenberg uncertainty principle . samantha is a postdoctoral fellow working on a formula to determine gender at conception - it ' s called y - kill . sam is the kind of person who has literally mapped out her life , but when her serious beau ( reid scott ) proposes , she ' s suddenly thrown off - course . is he really the one ?
* i gave this audiobook a b for the narration and b - for the story at audiogals * narrated by kate waldren lovers of the billionaire hero trope will likely enjoy losing control . while different in some respects from the typical fifty - shades - style stories , and definitely on the milder side of the spectrum , this story nonetheless features an alpha hero who is keen on controlling the heroine , though less due to his own flaws and more due to the heroine’s own , unfortunate set of circumstances . as is typ

3 . 5 * i have mixed feelings about losing control i did enjoy it but i found it a bit slow sometimes nothing major happened and it did not grip me like i expected . i felt sorry for tiny what she had to go through to support herself and her mum now and in the last 3 years she has a tough life and it was refreshing to have a job like a bike courier . i liked ian but i did not love him and together they are hot . arc provided by the author in exchange for an honest review .
but do they do this well ? there is increasing interest in finding altogether different approaches to tackling the challenge of building social movements . these approaches are often characterised by a letting go of traditional organisational models and direct control in favour of a focus on flatter hierarchies , dispersed leadership , collective decision - making and grassroots participation .
469 ) . gerald’s “will” is the cause of his tragic unhappiness . whereas birkin and ursula search for an essential self , gerald and gudrun possess the exterior identity that characterizes the modern subject and which produces a “will” to overpower and control . as gerald says , “if your will isn’t the master , the horse is master of you” (

one night , henry , francis , camilla and charles decide to translate his theories into action : they decide to try to hold a dionysian rite . the results are disturbingly concrete . wolves start howling , a bull roars , the river runs white , the moon changes shape and dionysus himself appears . somehow , in the process , a man - - a chicken farmer , on whose property the students have trespassed - - is gorily murdered , his neck broken , his brains splattered on his face .

since i have had the iphone 6 with vodafone it keeps losing reception . once you power the phone off and on it then returns to full reception . due to this fault vodafone first replaced the sim card and have since replaced the iphone but still it happens . this is therefore looking like a software problem and does anyone have a solution or have apple / vodafone at least recognised the problem ?
vsc uses various sensors to continuously compare the driver ' s steering input ( steering wheel angle ) with the motion of the vehicle ( wheel speed , yaw rate , lateral acceleration ) . as soon as a potential loss of control is detected , vsc cuts the engine throttle and brakes individual wheels to stabilise the driving conditions within the physical limits of the vehicle combination .
jules evans , an academic whose last book traced the origins of cognitive behavioural therapy to ancient greece , would count himself another “yes” . an accident on the side of a mountain , after a long period of anxiety and depression , put him in touch with a mysterious force . after falling 30ft , breaking his back and femur , he “woke up and was bathed in a warm white light . it felt like the white light was conscious , that it was a separate being which loved me , but also that it was the deepest part of my nature and all our natures” . that moment contributed greatly to his recovery – and spurred an interest which has ultimately led to the art of losing control . he says : “i can no longer call myself a stoic , ” feeling the drily rational philosophy that prefigured cbt “misses a lot out” . there is another side to existence , one that , try as we might , we cannot expunge .
we’re told that losing control is “loosely based on weiss’s own experiences , ” but it would be more accurate to say that it’s heavily based on weiss’s own experiences watching terrible movies . what unfolds reveals not even traces of lived experience . samantha ( miranda kent ) , a phd candidate at harvard who wants to apply the scientific rigor of the classroom to the unpredictability of romance , is distressed to learn that—oh gosh—in the experiment of life , sometimes true love just doesn’t measure up . samantha , one of the most irritating rom - com characters in recent memory , can’t replicate the results of a lab experiment we have no reason to care about for reasons the movie doesn’t bother to explain , and as a result she’s spent the last four years deeply considering the moral implications of her unquestioned privilege . actually , no , she doesn’t do that , but she does fret ceaselessly about her meticulously fashioned life plan , which as for all straight white women involves marrying her affluent , educated white boyfriend and starting a family . again , this film has no agenda .

really enjoyed it to me this story was a bit like a fairytale with a heroine struggling with her day to day life and a hero who can fix all of her problems with a click of his fingers . unfortunately tiny , our heroine , doesn ' t trust or accept our hero , ian ' s generosity straight away . she struggles to give him control of her life , but eventually realises that it is in her very sick mother ' s best interest . ian and tiny learn to trust each other and their feelings for each other grow . both have faced
as other reviewers have stated , definitely an extremely common trope , but losing control is as well done as many of them and better than some of them . here are some thoughts i have about the book ; hopefully they will be helpful . 1 . the editing is not terrible compared to many of these types of books , but there are some errors . some punctuation errors , missing words , and word usage ( waste instead of waist ) problems but there is not much that interrupts the reader . 2 . the flow and pacing are well done , but there is almost no conflict . on the plus side , there is none of the contrived conflict that becomes so tedious and annoying in some books . 3 . the sex scenes are explicit but not particularly intimate . even as ian and victoria get to know each other better and the author tells us how much more intimate the sex has become , the scenes just don ' t read ' intimate ' . hot , yes ; intimate , no . maybe just me ; you decide . 4 . i really liked the characters . all of them . 5 . yay for no cliffhanger ! yes , there is a 2nd , final book , but readers are not left hanging .
i’m teaching three groups of difficult teenagers aged 12 - 15 . in one of these groups i’ve totally lost control , shouted at them several times and even had to call the director in , which was terrible for my reputation . i’m teaching two of these groups for only other seven classes but the thing is i don’t really want to teach there anymore and don’t feel like doing anything now that i have so few classes to work on . do you recommend applying some rules anyway ? i feel so weakened and hurt over what happened two classes ago that i don’t really feel like talking to them . i just say ‘work on pages such and such and hand it in before the bell rings . otherwise you get a d’ . incredibly , they do work , but i know this sucks and they’re not learning much . i know the whole situation’s entirely my fault , but i feel hopeless .
really enjoyed it to me this story was a bit like a fairytale with a heroine struggling with her day to day life and a hero who can fix all of her problems with a click of his fingers . unfortunately tiny , our heroine , doesn ' t trust or accept our hero , ian ' s generosity straight away . she struggles to give him control of her life , but eventually realises that it is in her very sick mother ' s best interest . ian and tiny learn to trust each other and their feelings for each other grow . both have faced hurdles in their lives but i can tell that this has made their connection stronger . the way ian helps to look after tiny ' s mum was so sweet . a decent amount of steamy bits , with a great and believable connection between them . i really enjoyed the first part to the series and already have part 2 ready to go .
hello ! just found your site and articles while searching for ways to gain control back in a classroom , so clearly i’m in need of help . i am just graduated from college and this is my first class room of kids that i am responsible for . there are 18 kids in the fifth grade that are a part of the after school program in which i am the leader for . i really liked your way of making the kids start to get back to behaving appropriately , but when it comes to repeatedly making them try and get line up correct or waiting for silence , what do you do when it starts to cause them to have an attitude ? many of my students roll their eyes , scoff at me or plainly just tell me that they don’t care what the consequences are . i am in major need of a clean do over because i never want to go home nearly in tears again ! thanks for all the help ! !
i’d do anything to keep my mother alive . anything , including ask ian kerr for help . i don’t know much about him , except that he has more money than some small countries . and he’s willing to spend it on me . just one catch : there’s a string attached , and not just the one i feel pulling me into his arms and his bed . there’s also the plan for revenge he wants my help with . every time he says my name , it makes my body shiver and my heart stutter . i know he’s going to wreck me , know there won’t be anything left of me but lust and sensation by the time he’s done with me , but even though i can see the heartbreak coming towards me like a train , ready to crash into me , i can’t get out of the way . i want what he makes me feel . want what he’s offering . < this may have started out as something to save my mother , but now…now it’s about what he makes me feel . i’m in danger of losing everything that’s important . worse ? ian ' s whispered words and hot caresses are making me believe that ' s okay .

thank you for your encouragement ! i am not a school teacher , but i found my way to your web - site because i was feeling humiliated after a group of children i was working with at church got out of control . i had been asked to substitute for the music leader , and the room was already noisy because half the children were in the back of the room doing a craft activity . i decided to go ahead and start practice , hoping that the music would get them involved . i was wrong ! i switched to doing activity songs , and although i did get more involvement , the noise level just went up . when i tried to do serious songs again , the inattention and noise continued . finally , one of the leaders ( a woman about 15 years younger than me ) , stood up and — very nicely — gave the children a talking to . ( it worked . after a few minutes , the children calmed down . ) i am now 50 , so i can’t use youth as an excuse anymore for not knowing how to deal with children . i don’t believe in negative methods , but at that time , i could see why so many leaders / teachers resort to it .

kent , scott , and kathleen robertson ( the shock therapy friend ) display energy , and , um , chemistry , if not star power , and weiss has a nice sense for the rhythms of comedy as she puts her cast through its paces .

does the reviewer realize that this was an off - beat comedy , not a drama ? i saw it and thought it was goofy and smart . new rule - comedy should not be reviewed , only tested for laughs . pass / fail - this passed . made me laugh - would be great to see on ifc .
gone are the days of the insightful , reasoned review . here are the days of the inane and vain .
it ' s not clear to me how this can even be called a review . seems more like yet another vapid blog entry , or good old - fashioned babble . something tells me that while dr . weiss was getting her phd , mr . marsh was in hot pursuit of his ged . perhaps mr . marsh should spend more time analyzing the films he purports to review ( cinematography , music , story , tone , theme , and character , among others , might be relevant elements to consider ) and less time worrying about finding a film that is consistent with his own precious little agenda .

russ wrote this song for his first girlfriend as an apology . he expressed his motive for creating the song in a tweet that was deleted moments after posting it , he explains :
in the first verse , he is actually telling the story of how he neglected his first girlfriend . his first girlfriend is the same girl that he raps about in a song released two months before this one , “first one” ; it goes more into depth about the girl , their relationship , and what he did to push away the only girl who genuinely cared for him .
due to the way russ treated his ex , she now finds it hard to give her love and trust to another man . in the second verse russ explains that the new guys intentions were nothing like his were . even though the new guy is proving to her that he isn’t going to take her love for granted she still battles an internal conflict because of her relationship with russ .
the official music video was released to youtube on february 1 , 2016 . the video is directed by edgar esteves and features russ himself , along with youtube beauty vlogger taylor layne .
the first verse was about me and what i was doing to my girl , i was cheating on her . not just cheating on her but mishandling the love someone gives you because i was young .
i was like 17 - 18 and she was crazy in love with me . she really loved me for me before i even made a song .
i’d do anything to keep my mother alive . anything , including ask ian kerr for help . i don’t know much about him , except that he has more money than some small countries . and he’s willing to spend it on me . just one catch : there’s a string attached , and not just the one i feel pulling me into his arms and his bed . there’s also the plan for revenge he wants my help with . eve

”i say who i sleep with and whose bed i’m in - and right now , you aren’t even in the same conversation . ”

the steam in this book just about blew my top off . it blew my skirt back , it caused some tingling , some heart thumping , and some wiping of my brow may have been involved . wowza ! ! ! ian was the man ! ! he was powerful , mysterious , dominating , decisive , and utterly generous with a tender side . he is exactly the type of hero i love . once he ' s claimed his woman , no man would dare to encroach on his territory - or he will suffer the consequences . very quickly , we see this side of ian ' s personality - he always gets his way . period .
are you always so confident and knowing ? it ' s not very attractive .
when he and tiny meet , she ' s delivering a package to him and they have an unexplainable reaction to each other but tangible nonetheless by both of them . without words , they see in each other ' s eyes that they are connected : souls , destiny , whatever you want to call it . there ' s an unfamiliar sensation felt by both . the only difference is , he ' s immediately ready for whatever this is between them . he makes snap decisions and goes with it with all he has . tiny is faltering in her life that is currently in shambles though and she ' s scared . she runs . this is where his nickname
bunny
comes from . he ' s the predator - and she ' s the prey . she doesn ' t stand a chance .
tiny ( bunny ) is going through the worst time in her entire life . she ' s struggling to do whatever it takes to make ends meet . and it has to be immediately . her mother ' s illness has returned and now their lack of money has put a stop to her will to fight . what would she sacrifice to give her hope and comfort ? anything . there ' s no law she wouldn ' t break and no line she wouldn ' t cross . but would she do what ian requires ? would she agree to taking part in his plans of revenge , no matter what the cost ? that answer comes easy . she ' s loyal and giving to a fault . and her mother is her best friend who needs everything she ' s got . and she ' s going to give it to her . tiny is extremely smart , but because of a reading disability , she has limited options for work . she has a strength of will that overcomes everything that falls in her path though and i loved that side of her personality . the one thing she can ' t seem to vanquish though is her unwanted , overpowering desire for ian . he ' s everywhere , all around her and he ' s upfront with her : he wants her , and eventually he will have her .
i wanted to delay making love to you until i was completely sure you were with me - mind , body , and soul - because yes , tiny , you are mine . and this isn ' t for show .
i ' m going to fuck you so hard tonight that you will be left with only one thought . one concept : you belong to me .
ian seduces her with everything he ' s got . in the bedroom he took charge , talked dirty , and i was melting in a puddle . holy hell . the man could do no wrong in my eyes .
he worships her , he supports her and he helps carry her burden that ' s been hers alone for years . because of that she ' s extremely independent and she doesn ' t like taking the littlest thing from him . she wants to stand on her own feet and not depend on anyone . but little by little he melts her heart and breaks through her tough exterior . he shows her mother respect and courtesy and to see them together , growing genuinely close ultimately causes her complete surrender . he says he ' ll never leave her - can she trust in that ? because her world would crumble if everything falls apart .
ian ' s hiding a mysterious past however and he ' s not ready to share his motivation for his need for revenge . he ' s pulled her into it but he can ' t divulge many details . he ' s clearly emotionally wounded in some way and they were a comfort to each other and someone they could depend on . is she ensnared in something that she may come to regret ? she ' s not sure , but at this point , there ' s no turning back .
my favorite of hers without question . this has just cemented her as an auto - buy author and most especially the next book in the series . i absolutely consumed this book cover to cover without pause . one of the things i felt made the book stellar was the author ' s outstanding attention to detail and characterization . sometimes the structure or idea of a story can be good but it may fall flat in the details and ability to drag your emotions inside the story . this was not the case here . this was a powerful story of a girl who ' s pulled back from the edge of despair . but is he her savior or her downfall ?
it didn ' t even have a complete hea and i still gave it 5 stars . i ' m usually running for the hills if i hear that or throwing something when i don ' t get one . that should tell you how much i enjoyed this one . loved , loved , loved . i want more . i am so unbelievably thrilled that the next book is in
4 . 5 - i ' ll never be done with you and your solid gold pussy .

i want you , tiny corielli . i ' ve wanted you since the minute i saw you and that desire has turned into a need i ' ve not been able to shake . i tried to ignore what i was feeling , put it aside , but it kept returning . i ' m not going to fight it anymore .
ian is so compassionate , especially towards victoria ' s mother . the plan for revenge wasn ' t heavy in the book . this was more about their building relationship . but the seed has been planted , and i look forward to their plan of action in the next book .
i really liked this one ! it reminded me , a bit , of a cinderella type story and i had plenty of feels . . tiny ( aka bunny , aka victoria ) is a young woman with a lot on her shoulders . . supporting her mom that’s dealing with an extremely hard battle with cancer and working herself sick trying to pay doctor bills for her mom and keep a roof over their head . and ian… super rich good looking guy with revenge on his mind and an attraction to tiny that has completely thrown him for a loop . he wants to

4 . 5 stars
tiny
. . . that ' s how the hero was referring to his lady . . and i was doomed ! what stand out for me in this book was
the chemistry between both mc . . . the hero had eyes only for one girl and that was
the heroine
whom he work hard to build a trust and commitment although his
real intentions were not flashed out enough for me due to lack of his pov . . . however the passion these two shared was so captivating and romantic . . . the heat factor was of the chart and i was swoon over by the heroes

exclusive attention
toward the heroine . . . its so refreshing to see an alpha male , but not overdone by being sexualized to the point of sleazing around whilst
his lady is on the picture
that did not happed here . . . . the hero stood his ground by letting the heroine
know
exactly what he wanted and he wanted her like his next breath . . . i had a genuine feeling of real love between both characters and the only thing that would be welcomed was the emotional depth that would enrich they journey and i would gladly replace some of the sex scenes for more grounded emotional interactions between the two . . . perhaps the heroes pov will change that view and i am anticipating the release !
i think this is one of these books that either you like it or you don’t ! i really enjoyed it .

victoria’s mother is sick and victoria tries anything to help pay the medical bills because her mother is unable to work . victoria has dyslexia so is gets a courier job delivery parcels to try and make ends meet . at night she delivers for her step brother and let me tell you he is such an asshole .
. ian kerr is a multi millionaire / billionaire . and he wants victoria .
ian has a job for victoria , but he doesn’t think she is right for the job . what does he want her to do ? well you have to find out .
victoria doesn’t want to commit to any relationship as this stage because of her mother’s sickness .
no , you forget to buy shirts whit fabric in the back . apparently your money isn’t enough to buy a complete top – only half of one
you suck , i tell my body . stop lusting after an unfaithful jerk .
3 . 50 + rating - i find this authors writing style very readable and i enjoyed the romance between the two main characters . the steamy bits were sexy and very well written . readers that can appreciate a rich alpha hero , an instant attraction and some dirty talk should be pleased with this one ! one note : i didn ' t realize this was not a standalone book or i probably wouldn ' t have read it . i don ' t consider this a cliffhanger ending though , more a hfn . the revenge portion of the story never really got

i need to write a few words about this book . it was such a good surprise . surprise because i like angst , drama and dark . when at 7 % i realised the book would be funny too it was too late . i was hooked . funny ? not really my thing . loved the witty heroine . she was funny and wickedly sarcastic . our guy in this story is a very hot alpha with a dirty mouth and finally , victoria is a biker courier . it was very refreshing and interesting read about it . it made me realise how challenging and dangerous

let me be perfectly frank with you , victoria . there are lots of things that i ' d like you to do for me . some of them involve you on your knees . others require you bent over a table . all of them require me between your legs .

wild at heart ' s star - crossed lovers , sailor and lulu , continue their dark , fierce adventures . gifford returns to his haunting landscape of lovers , losers , killers , madmen , and dreamers with four novellas in the continuing saga of lulu pace fortune and sailor ripley .
four novellas that follow the intersecting lives of the characters of
wild at heart .
mostly fun contemporary noir , traipsing across the southern u . s . and forward in time , with the last novella taking place on sailor ' s 50th birthday . i kept having problems with the descriptions of the character ' s appearances , because they were nothing like laura dern or nicholas cage , and that was how i continued to picture them . perdita durango doesn ' t look like rosie perez , either . the names of the characters
pugnacious sailor adam pike and sidekick shorty are on shore leave and aiming to deliver the gift of a parrot to pike ' s mother . only their rival in the shore patrol is hot on their heels because he knows they can ' t stay out of trouble for long !
sailors pike and shorty are on leave when a street woman swindles them out of some money by telling them she is looking for her long - lost brother , a sailor . later pike and shorty are accosted by molly jones , whose brother , ethelbert , actually is a missing sailor . deeming her an imposter , they elude her by slipping into a nearby cafe . jimmylegs , the bosun ' s mate , follows , intending to arrest them because the street woman complained when pike and shorty reclaimed the money . there jimmylegs loses his roll of money , and he chases molly , suspecting her to be a thief . molly , pike , and shorty end up at ma pike ' s chicken farm . pike and molly fall in love . then it is revealed that jimmylegs is molly ' s long - lost brother , ethelbert , and all ends happily .
sailors pike and shorty are on leave when a street woman swindles them out of some money by telling them she is looking for her long - lost brother , a sailor .
sequels , o sequels . i guess if you ' re really into the story that began with wild at heart then you might be interested in this but for me this was a less than compelling continuation of a story that had been told effectively and should have ended where it ended . that said , it ' s a fine book , such as it is . it ' s not like it ' s poorly written . so if you like sequels , or just really like sagas , then maybe you ' d love this .

this silent comedy starring alan hale ( senior ) is available for free download from internet archive - - and it ' s worth the trouble . it ' s a harmless but enjoyable film about two sailor buddies who are constantly at odds with a guy from the shore patrol ( the navy ' s version of mps ) . this time , however , they really are up to nothing . . . yet events sure make it look like they are . in the process , they get hooked up with a nice young lady ( sally eilers ) and the three of them are constantly on the run and are trying to make it to the home of adam ' s ( hale ) mama to deliver a gift . this is a very simple film with a simple plot . but despite this , it is fun and kept my interest throughout and made me laugh . and fortunately , the print urltoken has is high quality and an easy download .

bob lee ' s offered sail a job at the alligator repellant factory , and beany ' d like me to take care of madonna kim and lance when she enrolls in the st . john the baptist college of cosmetology in arabi .
paces along with more and more superb character names , even the italian ones if you translate them ! reads like a chapter really of the whole series of books . . . better to get the collection of sailor and lula rather than the separate books . . .

there are so many things i like about this book . i came across it at a junk sale . i haven ' t read
wild at heart
or seen the movie ; i came into this cold . while the narrative structure can at times flounder , the cinematic voice and short punchy chapters make it worth reading . it ' s a bit pulpy , with tense scenes and oddball characters . the reason i didn ' t rate this higher is because of the gender inequities present . they are there throughout , but are laid on especially thick in
consuelo ' s kiss
,
this very easy rock - flavored piece combines original material with the well - known sea chantey
the drunken sailor
, producing what is destined to become a favorite of young bands everywhere . correlated with accent on achievement , book 1 , page 15 , this work is loaded with instrumental and harmonic contrast , and will show your beginning band off at its best . very highly recommended . this title is available in smartmusic .

only the silent version of this early sound movie seems to have survived , which explains the excessive use of inter - titles . in 1929 only a small number of the cinemas had been wired for sound , so the studios had to edit the sound films into silent versions to sell them to the smaller towns . the theme is a familiar one . sailors go ashore and gets swindled out of their money by a dame and various chases happens . i ' m pretty sure a lot is lost in the transition to silence , but this is all we have of the comedy so one just got to be thankful the movie exists in some form .
