Описание: INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER BARNES & NOBLE BESTSELLER AMAZON BESTSELLER "Paging through Serrano's Movies (and Other Things) is like taking a long drive at night with a friend; there's that warmth and familiarity where the chat is more important than the fastest route from Point A to Point B...It's like a textbook gone right; your attention couldn't wander if it tried." -- Elisabeth Egan, New York Times Book ReviewShea Serrano is back, and his new book, Movies (And Other Things), combines the fury of a John Wick shootout, the sly brilliance of Regina George holding court at a cafeteria table, and the sheer power of a Denzel monologue, all into one.Movies (And Other Things) is a book about, quite frankly, movies (and other things). One of the chapters, for example, answers which race Kevin Costner was able to white savior the best, because did you know that he white saviors Mexicans in McFarland, USA, and white saviors Native Americans in Dances with Wolves, and white saviors Black people in Black or White, and white saviors the Cleveland Browns in Draft Day? Another of the chapters, for a second example, answers what other high school movie characters would be in Regina George's circle of friends if we opened up the Mean Girls universe to include other movies (Johnny Lawrence is temporarily in, Claire from The Breakfast Club is in, Ferris Bueller is out, Isis from Bring It On is out...). Another of the chapters, for a third example, creates a special version of the Academy Awards specifically for rom-coms, the most underrated movie genre of all. And another of the chapters, for a final example, is actually a triple chapter that serves as an NBA-style draft of the very best and most memorable moments in gangster movies. Many, many things happen in Movies (And Other Things), some of which funny, others of which are sad, a few of which are insightful, and all of which are handled with the type of care and dedication to the smallest details and pockets of pop culture that only a book by Shea Serrano can provide.
In the beginning, God established an order and a structure, thereby laying down the foundation for the social unity of all mankind. He achieved this with the family structure.A marriage that suffers lack of structure will encounter problems in the long run. Therefore, for a family unit to function properly there is a compelling need for house policies.
THE MARRIAGE CORPORATION seeks to give guidance on the establishment of a coherent family structure. It also highlights the organizational needs of a covenant marriage. These objectives of the book are predicated on the fact that a family unit requires some form of administrative structure for it to function effectively, efficiently and properly, the way God intended. Like a corporation, every marriage should have a Chairman of the Board (God); a President (Husband) and Vice President (Wife). This book will teach that some positions are held by default. If there is no one with the requisite skill for a particular task within the home, you might need to contract it out. Whether you are single, engaged, a newlywed, veteran couple, a pastor, ministry leader or a lay person; you will find this book of tremendous utilitarian value. What qualifications do you possess to contribute to the corporate success of your marriage? This book is intended to be a road map of sorts to help you establish structure and enduring order in your home and marriage.

Engineers are often required to present technical concepts to non-engineers, many of whom are decision makers--a skill neither required nor taught in engineering school.
The Eloquent Engineer offers practical approaches to presentations that engineers and technical professionals will find easy to understand and adopt. It starts with practical advice on how to craft clear and simple messages, then goes on with methods to deliver these messages effectively. It also offers insights on adopting the right mindset, using pictures in a powerful way, practicing effectively, and even overcoming stage fright.
The book has a distinct engineering flavor. It was written by an engineer for engineers. It recognizes natural strengths while addressing common weaknesses of engineers when it comes to presenting. Many of the stories will resonate with technical professionals of all persuasions.
You will find this book an easy read. The messages are straightforward and the lessons simple. It uses everyday language and encourages the reader to do the same. The book models the use of rich imagery and is chockfull of real stories from the authors themselves.
This book will open your eyes to details and behaviors you never noticed before. It will teach you how to critique presentations--see clearly what works and what doesn't and will push you to keep getting better. You will learn that eloquence isn't just about the spoken word. It encompasses a whole lot more--what your audience hears, what they see, and how it all comes together.
African antiquity has been discerned both nullifyingly and constructively. Uses of African Antiquity in the Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries reveals how reading the past can be extended to understand sensitivities involving origins and how it imparts collective posture. The ancient historical imagery epitomized by writers and artists alike includes the distant past as well as an immediate past. Comparatively, representation of time long gone records transhistorical presence and civilizational participation and agentic validity. African antiquity can be construed as diasporic through time and space and in regards to nomenclature it extends understanding of peopleness, e.g. Libya, Ethiopia, Africa, Afrika, African Egypt, Kemet, Alkebu-lan, Nubia, Ta-Seti, Ta-Nehisi, Ta-Merry, Kush, Axum, Mero?, Ghana, Mali, Songhai, Zulu, and so many more are recognized in a time-spatial continuum linked to African, Colored, Negro, and Black, as various terms inform origins identity. Unfortunately, typologies disciplinarily stem from anthropological construction, yet here African antiquity as sign heralds clines and clusters; splintering Africana from humanitas ultimately contends against subjugation. African antiquity absorbs character and notions of diachronologically dispersed peoples reflect origins indulgence. African antiquity as a stretched concept and/or historicism triply adds understanding, grouping, and alterity. This primarily is a review of thinkers who defend against people erasure in the past with its socially and nihilistic affective ways.
