Topics include individualism, New York City, Arthur "Weegee" Fellig, diners, pornography, capitalism, advertising, cigarettes, American philosophy, World War II, Gravity's Rainbow, Blade Runner, Pulp Fiction, Russ Meyer, R.

Despite its desolate feel, Nighthawks has become a familiar icon, reproduced on posters and postcards, in movies and on television shows. But Nighthawks is more than just a masterful painting. It is a portal into that rarely acknowledged but pervasive dark side of the American psyche.

Book Synopsis Come Early, Stay Late by : Dr. Jay Slife
Download or read book Come Early, Stay Late written by Dr. Jay Slife and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2024-06-05 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the divine plan for humanity, which is the Kingdom of God, everybody who calls on the name of Jesus has a place. Everyone has a part, a responsibility, an importance in His Kingdom waiting for them to discover and walk out. This truth, when engaged and followed, brings purpose and value to you. It gives precise definition to who you are according to the Lord and King of it all. It is powerful and will become your lifeblood. All this happens in a healthy small group in someone’s living room that never could and never does happen on a Sunday morning. I am writing this book for two reasons. One has to do with the burden to disciple those who know Jesus to the deepest level possible, and help them give that away to others - so that they too may get the message of Jesus, and live it out. The other reason is to help leaders, at any level, to make the shift, the transition to the New Testament pattern of ministry, which is clearly small group ministry. This book is about small groups, about effective and life-giving leadership and ministry in that context. But it is also about helping good people who are stuck in a system they did not create. They just got stuck in it somewhere along the way. And now they don’t know what or where they are, and most of all, who they are. I get it because I’ve been through it. I thought it was the right way. I was taught it was the right way. There are answers, from Scripture, from the Teacher. Yet the problem seems to continue to worsen. Let’s change that. Let’s learn to get much closer to the Creator and align with him as he changes that.

Book Synopsis Quiet Girls Can Run the World by : Rebecca Holman
Download or read book Quiet Girls Can Run the World written by Rebecca Holman and published by Penguin Group. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Lean In for introverts empowers women who may not be the loudest and most assertive people in the room to lead on their own terms. Our culture tells us that in order to succeed at work and in life, we need to be vocal, assertive leaders; but a strong team requires multiple perspectives and personality types--even, or especially, the ones that often go under the radar. In this deeply relatable book, Rebecca Holman shares research and her own hard-won experiences to empower other introvert women to harness their strengths, rather than conform to a one-size-fits-all template of success. Quiet Girls Can Run the World shows introverts how to lead in ways that come naturally--by nurturing the talents of others, taking the time to reflect before making a decision, exercising emotional intelligence, and leaving egos at the door. In highlighting the power of "quiet" qualities, Holman also encourages us to push outside our comfort zones so we can stand our ground in expressing our views, work well with those who have different personalities, and bring our A game to each public speaking opportunity.
