Описание: Every graphic designer and advertising professional knows the drill. After a logo or corporate design has been created, it needs to be presented and sold to a client. Showing preliminary drafts on paperboard isn t adequate. In order to communicate the idea behind the design, it is much more effective to present it in the application for which it is meant whether on a shopping bag, on a company car, in a brochure, or on a variety of other products. This method of presentation makes designs come to life and gives the client a real idea of how they will work and why. Blank Slate is a compilation of 400 photographic dummies of everyday objects that are depicted in the book and can also be downloaded for free as digital files. With the help of these dummies, any designer can present his or her work in the way that gives clients the most concrete grasp of how their corporate designs will function in the real world. Until now, hardly any suitable dummies existed for creating such presentations. The few that did exist were of moderate quality and high prices. In a similar fashion to our bestseller Neubau Welt, the handbook Blank Slate provides designers with inspiring examples and practical digital tools that will make the implementation, presentation, and sale of their work much easier.
"My entry into concentrated Catholicism, a forced alteration in my DNA, was to take place today." So begins John's parochial education in this enchanting, semi-autobiographical tale of a young boy ready to learn the mysteries of the Universe.
First-grader John has an interesting perspective on life, much to the dismay of the nuns at the Catholic school he attends. To them, boys who ask too many questions are dangerous and poised to enter the ultimate fiery pit. As he struggles to figure out the lessons the nuns are trying to teach him, John does his best to puzzle out the religious teachings and how they apply to his place is in this world.
This tale focuses on John and the complexities of his family, who do what they need to do in order to scrape by in a blue-collar town. Dominating the landscape of his life is his Irish culture, which informs every part of what he knows about family and the world around him.
At times touching and often very funny, readers will identify with a young boy's confusion over the contradiction between what he is told is right and what his heart tells him is right.

Описание: Zen Master Dogen wrote the Fukanzazengi (Principles of Seated Meditation) in 1227 upon his return to Japan from China. More than just a treatise on the merits of meditation, the Fukanzazengi invites us to go deeper into our own meditation practice and experience the same depth of realization as the great Zen masters of the past. This commentary on this classic 13th century text attempts to make more accessible what Master Dogen calls the "inexpressible heart" of Zen.

Описание:
After an unexpected tragedy strikes, Dylan Fields struggles with what his life has become despite the support system that he has around him. Leaving the most important people in his life behind, he flees to the opposite side of the country in order to escape everything that reminds him of his late little sister. Being all alone in a new place to deal with his broken heart seems intriguing to Dylan, but he doesn't realize until he's on the plane that escaping the memory of Natalie might be harder than he thought.
On the plane, he meets Ellie, a girl who is fighting battles of her own as her past tries to control her. Dylan and Ellie find simplicity in bonding over the things that they don't want to talk about. Their conversations remain comfortably shallow and the two prefer small talk so that their designated touchy subjects don't come up.
Getting a better understanding of how the other's past has shaped who they are, the two grow closer. While they help each other deal with their struggles and cope with their new lives, they find themselves falling in love with the first person that they feel understands them and their stories.
In the midst of helping each other face the darkness and find their individual ways out of it, Dylan and Ellie manage to break down each other's walls and fall for each other, making facing things much more manageable.
Together, the two discover no matter what life throws at you, having someone who understands you by your side, makes everything that much easier.
