Download or read book Indelible Mark written by José Octavio Velasco-Tejeda and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Skepticals in religion: watch out! Do not criticize anything about any religion. It is not of good taste; it is considered lack of respect and tact. Better turn apart a political party, science, a football team or anything else; but do not touch religion, even with the petal of a rose. What kind of privilege is that? Who provided it? It is not the case for this book. In it, I talk about the evil they all produce. Its essence is to forbid thinking. Faith and revelations cannot be doubted a bit, even existing ample evidence of its falsehood. From the hundreds of religions, which is the true one? Coincidentally and curiously, the one that each person happens to follow, by pure chance, of where he/she was born and which religion parents indoctrinated, nothing else. The eminent evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins comments, very appropiately: We are all atheists, but I believe in one god less than you. It results interesting to view the debates of the late Christopher Hitchens or Richard Dawkins versus fundamentalists who always bring faith or revelation and thus, never answer the questions asked or the mentioned commentaries. Homo sapiens has proved capable of great feats although his design shows carelessness, unless we believe in the evidence of evolution. If the damages to children were purely mental, that would be severe enough; but the vast amount of pederasts, such as Marcial Maciel, protected all his life by the pope J. P. II, who has been already canonized! Priests are much like politicians; they cover their backs, and they hardly ever get caught!
Book Synopsis The One Idea That Saves The World by : Laurence Overmire
Download or read book The One Idea That Saves The World written by Laurence Overmire and published by Indelible Mark Pub.. This book was released on 2020-09-16 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our house is on fire! Who will answer the call? Is there One Idea that can save the world? Is there One Idea that can bring us all together - no matter what our faith, our politics, our culture - to do what is necessary and right in the face of the enormous challenges that confront us - environmentally, economically, socially and spiritually? Author and poet Laurence Overmire believes he has found an idea that can do just that. It is a very old idea, but we have not paid attention to its glaring ramifications. Will we change the way we think and the way we live or are we doomed to bring about the end of all that humankind has created and accomplished in the long course of our history on this planet? This second edition is a message of hope in a time of crisis. Overmire presents us with a roadmap for how to bring about the healthy world that we seek. His overall message is stirring and uplifting. This book will make you feel good about yourself, your neighbors, and this beautiful planet of which we all are a part. We can save the world. It's all up to us. Each one of us. As Overmire tells us, it's time to awaken to our best selves. And we haven't a moment to lose. Praise for the First Edition of THE ONE IDEA THAT SAVES THE WORLD "This message of unity certainly reflects both the science around climate change and the movement we must build to challenge it!" Bill McKibben, author, environmentalist, founder of 350.org "Laurence Overmire's poignant and passionate book, The One Idea That Saves the World, and his urgent call to live that one idea, presents a powerful truth and a heartfelt vision of hope that just may galvanize the world to do what needs to be done to save itself." World Business Academy "The One Idea that Saves the World is an excellent delivery of a spirited message of how we as human beings can become conscious of living in balance and harmony - the TIME IS NOW." Mona Polacca, member of the International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers "The future of a habitable planet requires a significant shift from the status quo. Inertia and time are unified against us. Laurence Overmire has written a direct, simple, and compelling call to conscience. I hope people hear it." Aaron Viles, chair of the board of directors of Healthy Gulf, formerly Gulf Restoration Network "Overmire had me on page 12 when he wrote that this book was about wisdom... which translates into 'immediate personal action'... he has really created a teaching vehicle... a very worthy work." Rt. Rev. George E. Packard, retired US Army officer, Bishop of the Episcopal Church "The One Idea That Saves The World is, not surprisingly, both incredibly simple and incredibly profound. It takes a poet to present profound sim-plicity in language that touches the rhythms of the heart. That poet is Laurence Overmire, and his poetic message is to us a Call to Conscience and a Call to Action, one that will resonate with all the peoples and the rhythms of the planet." John Lundin, author, The New Mandala: Eastern Wisdom for Western Living, written with the Dalai Lama; and Journey To The Heart Of The World, written with the indigenous peoples of Colombia
Book Synopsis Reframing Todd Haynes by : Theresa L. Geller
Download or read book Reframing Todd Haynes written by Theresa L. Geller and published by Duke University Press Books. This book was released on 2022-04-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For three decades, award-winning independent filmmaker Todd Haynes, who emerged in the early 1990s as a foundational figure in New Queer Cinema, has gained critical recognition for his outsider perspective. Today, Haynes is widely known for bringing women’s stories to the screen. Analyzing Haynes’s films including Safe (1995), Velvet Goldmine (1998), Far from Heaven (2002), and Carol (2015), as well as his unauthorized Karen Carpenter biopic, Superstar (1987), and the television miniseries Mildred Pierce (2011), the contributors to Reframing Todd Haynes reassess his work in light of his long-standing feminist commitments and his exceptional career as a director of women’s films. They present multiple perspectives on Haynes’s film and television work and on his role as an artist-activist who draws on academic theorizations of gender and cinema. The volume illustrates the influence of feminist theory on Haynes’s aesthetic vision, most evident in his persistent interest in the political and formal possibilities afforded by the genre of the woman’s film. The contributors contend that no consideration of Haynes’s work can afford to ignore the crucial place of feminism within it. Contributors. Danielle Bouchard, Nick Davis, Jigna Desai, Mary R. Desjardins, Patrick Flanery, Theresa L. Geller, Rebecca M. Gordon, Jess Issacharoff, Lynne Joyrich, Bridget Kies, Julia Leyda, David E. Maynard, Noah A. Tsika, Patricia White, Sharon Willis

Download or read book Unsettled Scores written by Sally Bick and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2019-12-20 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hollywood careers of Aaron Copland and Hanns Eisler brought the composers and their high art sensibility into direct conflict with the premier producer of America's potent mass culture. Drawn by Hollywood's potential to reach—and edify—the public, Copland and Eisler expertly wove sophisticated musical ideas into Hollywood and, each in their own distinctive way, left an indelible mark on movie history. Sally Bick's dual study of Copland and Eisler pairs interpretations of their writings on film composing with a close examination of their first Hollywood projects: Copland's music for Of Mice and Men and Eisler's score for Hangmen Also Die! Bick illuminates the different ways the composers treated a film score as means of expressing their political ideas on society, capitalism, and the human condition. She also delves into Copland's and Eisler's often conflicted attempts to adapt their music to fit Hollywood's commercial demands, an enterprise that took place even as they wrote hostile critiques of the film industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accelerated Strategy Development and Execution The company of today has its supply chains and finances stretched further around the globe than ever before while simultaneously having increasing pressures to drive value across a complicated and fluid set of metrics and deliver innovations, products, and services more quickly and reliably. The competitive advantage belongs to the companies that can quicken their vision-building and strategy-execution efforts—the ones that can identify challenges more swiftly and accelerate their decision making so they are better able to formulate and deploy responses decisively yet with greater agility. To successfully accomplish this, companies will have to prioritize creating a culture of leadership that strengthens communication skills and emphasizes systems thinking by building capacity and capability that cuts across the business smokestacks and permeates the entire organization. In State of Readiness, Joseph F. Paris Jr. shares over thirty years of international business and operations experience and guides C-suite executives and business-operations and -improvement specialists on a path toward operational excellence, the organizational capability and situational awareness that is attained as the enterprise reaches a state of alignment for pursuing its strategies. In doing so, create a corporate culture that is committed to the continuous and deliberate improvement of company performance and the circumstances of those who work there—a precursor to becoming a high-performance organization.

Download or read book The Ghost of Rabbie Burns written by Laurence Overmire and published by Indelible Mark Pub.. This book was released on 2016-05-27 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part travelogue, part diary, part poetry, history and genealogy With an Introduction by Ted Cowan, Scottish historian, University of Glasgow SUMMARY An American poet who, according to family tradition, is related to the iconic poet Robert Burns, embarks upon a life-changing adventure through Scotland to find the lost connections to his immigrant forebears. From Bannockburn to Culloden, Edinburgh to Stirling to Inverness and Skye, Glencoe and Loch Lomond, Glasgow and Dumfries, each page reveals another thread of the lore and the mystery, offering a fresh perspective on the times, the places and the people that are woven into the beautiful tapestry that is Scotland. As an historical snapshot in time, this book will have significant social and cultural relevance for Scotland and the UK in times to come. PRAISE FOR THE GHOST OF RABBIE BURNS "A wonderful book of poetry and a great asset if you are making a trip to Scotland." Duke of Argyll, Chief of Clan Campbell "Laurence is a true sennachie, a genealogist as well as a bard." Ted Cowan, Emeritus professor of Scottish history and literature, University of Glasgow "touchingly sincere and thoughtful... laced with a wry but kindly humour." Isla St Clair, singer and broadcaster "Historically interesting and accurate... a passionate perspective of olden Caledonia." Steve McDonald, composer, Sons of Somerled "an amusing, heartfelt, historical journey that every exile should take. Weel duin, Laurence." Iain H Scott, Scocha "Overmire has captured that idea of the warrior/poet/wanderer so many of us dream of being. We can live the adventure of William Wallace at Stirling Bridge, or the devotion of Greyfriars Bobby, or the heartbreak of Culloden. Whither from your armchair at home with a glass of single malt in your hand, or on the plane ride over for your own first Scottish Adventure, I would highly recommend Overmire's capture of his own 'first trip home'." Eric Bullard, President, Clan Buchanan Society Intl., Inc. "an engaging meditation on Scotland, its history, places and people." Rev. Calum I. MacLeod, Minister of St. Giles' Cathedral, Edinburgh "The imagery evoked in his verse and the moral lessons imparted by Laurence represent the message of Robert Burns for the modern time." Mark Myers, President, Clan Maclean Association of California, USA "Much of Burns' collected works were captured during his tours of Scotland... this book captures the mood very well as a trail through Scotland." Jock Meikle, President of the Burns Club of London "Overmire uncovers the heart of each place he visits and helps us know the very soul of this country." Anita Scott-Philbrick, Ph.D, Deputy Chieftain, Clan Scott Society "Overmire has captured what it is like for those with even a trace of Scottish heritage to long for a connection with their ancestral roots... It is refreshing to view history in the context of poetry." Larry Bardell, President, Oregon Scottish Society "This book is a poetic, informed and sensitive testament to Scotland - its history, its art, its enduring values, its conflicts, and its spirituality." Weeden Nichols, F.S.A. Scot., President, Clan MacLeod Society USA "always with an ear/eye on literary or musical echoes... this poet is interested in connections, not separations." Dr. Keith Hughes, English Literature, University of Edinburgh "The art of painting into words my homeland and its history was well done and should be experienced by all whose blood runs 'Per Mare Per Terras'." Chevalier Dr. Gregory A. McDonald, D.D.S., K.T.J., formerly Ohio Deputy Commissioner, Clan Donald "It's a pleasant book to curl up with on a cold winter's evening in front of the fireplace, or at the beach on a sunny summer day." Margaret Frost, Chairman, Scottish American Society, President, American Clan Cumming Association

Bill McKibben, founder 350.org "A thoughtful commentary on the biggest issue of our day - the survival of humankind." Thom Hartmann, author and host of the Thom Hartmann Program "This poet rightly yells Fire in our crowded house-the hour is late and the world needs rousing. Kudos for caring, daring, and acting on it. Firefighters needed!" Raffi Cavoukian, singer, author, children's champion, ecology advocate, founder of Child Honouring "Overmire had me on page 12 when he wrote that this book was about wisdom - which translates into 'immediate personal action.' He has really created a teaching vehicle - a very worthy work." Bishop George Packard "At a time when so many have surrendered to cynicism or despair, Overmire throws us a life ring... This book is fun and easy to read for a wide array of ages, making it a great conversation-starter. I can't wait to buy copies for my two sons!" Rev. Kate Lore, Minister of Social Justice, First Unitarian Church of Portland, Oregon "Laurence Overmire's poignant and passionate book, The One Idea That Saves the World, and his urgent call to live that one idea, presents a powerful truth and a heartfelt vision of hope that just may galvanize the world to do what needs to be done to save itself."

Mona Polacca, member of the International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers "The One Idea is a simple, elegant and universally familiar concept that may well be the most potent prescription for what ails our society." Jeff Farias, musician and radio host "This is without a doubt the most important, honest, humble piece of prose and poetry you could read this year. Reading it isn't enough, however. You must be it, live it, do it!" Donna Marie Miller Ellington, Americans for Healthcare, Too

Download or read book Indelible written by Adelia Saunders and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-01-17 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Indie Next Pick A masterful, "seductive" debut novel about fate, family secrets, and the stories our bodies tell (NYTBR). Magdalena has an unsettling gift. She sees the truth about people written on their skin--names, dates, details both banal and profound--and her only relief from the onslaught of information is to take off her glasses and let the world recede. Mercifully, her own skin is blank. When she meets Neil, she is intrigued to see her name on his cheek, and she is drawn into a family drama that began more than half a century before, when Neil's father, Richard, was abandoned at birth by his mother, a famous expatriate novelist. As secrets are revealed among forgotten texts in the archives of Paris, on a dusty cattle ranch in the American West, along ancient pilgrim paths, and in a run-down apartment in post-Soviet Lithuania, the novel's unforgettable characters converge--by chance, or perhaps by fate--and Magdalena's uncanny ability may be the key to their happiness.
