Описание: Presents a manifesto to secure the Australian Labor Party`s position as the dominant force in Australian politics. It advocates for governing alone or not at all, opening up the election of the parliamentary leader to party members as well as caucus, and support for the carbon tax.

Queen for a Day connects the logic of Venezuelan modernity with the production of a national femininity. In this ethnography, Marcia Ochoa considers how femininities are produced, performed, and consumed in the mass-media spectacles of international beauty pageants, on the runways of the Miss Venezuela contest, on the well-traveled Caracas avenue where transgender women (transformistas) project themselves into the urban imaginary, and on the bodies of both transformistas and beauty pageant contestants (misses). Placing transformistas and misses in the same analytic frame enables Ochoa to delve deeply into complex questions of media and spectacle, gender and sexuality, race and class, and self-fashioning and identity in Venezuela.
Beauty pageants play an outsized role in Venezuela. The country has won more international beauty contests than any other. The femininity performed by Venezuelan women in high-profile, widely viewed pageants defines a kind of national femininity. Ochoa argues that as transformistas and misses work to achieve the bodies, clothing and makeup styles, and postures and gestures of this national femininity, they come to embody Venezuelan modernity.

Описание:
The fat friend, the chubby sister, the funny one, the curvy one.
Whatever you want to call it, every group of friends has one. Unless you're the mean girls, then fat and friend don't belong in the same sentence. I've been that friend my whole life. Tall and chubby as a child morphed into tall and extra curvy as an adult. My weight has fluctuated up and down throughout the years, but one thing never changes: I've always been the fat one in the group. The token "curvy" girl who can't share clothes with everyone else and doesn't even enjoy shopping trips because I need specialty stores to find my size. That's me. And I have a confession to make--actually, several of them. All the thoughts and feelings I've had about being the fat friend for the past 30 years. All the things I've never told anyone before. All the things I wish people knew about life as the biggest friend in every group but have been too afraid to tell anyone before now. Some of them might make you laugh or cry or think I'm crazy. Some of them are funny, some of them are painful, but all of them are full of truth and real-life experiences.
I'm Paige, and these are my stories. These are Confessions from Your Fat Friend.
In the personal and frank Confessions of a Free Speech Lawyer, Rodney A. Smolla offers an insider's view on the violent confrontations in Charlottesville during the "summer of hate." Blending memoir, courtroom drama, and a consideration of the unhealed wound of racism in our society, he shines a light on the conflict between the value of free speech and the protection of civil rights.
Smolla has spent his career in the thick of these tempestuous and fraught issues, from acting as lead counsel in a famous Supreme Court decision challenging Virginia's law against burning crosses, to serving as co-counsel in a libel suit brought by a fraternity against Rolling Stone magazine for publishing an article alleging that one of the fraternity's initiation rituals included gang rape. Smolla has also been active as a university leader, serving as dean of three law schools and president of one and railing against hate speech and sexual assault on US campuses.
Well before the tiki torches cast their ominous shadows across the nation, the city of Charlottesville sought to relocate the Unite the Right rally; Smolla was approached to represent the alt-right groups. Though he declined, he came to wonder what his history of advocacy had wrought. Feeling unsettlingly complicit, he joined the Charlottesville Task Force, and he realized that the events that transpired there had meaning and resonance far beyond a singular time and place. Why, he wonders, has one of our foundational rights created a land in which such tragic clashes happen all too frequently?
Jeremiah 29:11 - "For I know the plans that I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope for a future."
If we are being honest with ourselves, life can cause us to feel defeated at times. When we feel defeated, it limits our ability to see God's plans for our lives. The distance between our faith and God's promises is often in our words or our self-talk. Faith, in the simplest of terms, is "believing without seeing." To confess something is to make a factual statement. By confessing our faith, we are making declarative statements of what we know to be true and speaking them into existence without seeing them.
My Confessions of Faith is a 31-day devotional journal that teaches you how to make declarations that will encourage, motivate, and inspire you to walk boldly in faith. Some people say affirmations, but in this book it's called confessions because your words have power, and they frame your entire world.
With over 5 years of intentional confessions and manifestations, the author shares real and relevant insights on how the words we speak are used to frame and create our world, all based on biblical principles. My Confessions of Faith is full of encouragement, inspiration, and scriptures that will help you increase your faith and live the best life that God has planned for you.
