Book Synopsis I Thought He was a Speed Bump-- and Other Excuses from Life in the Fast Lane by : Terry Marotta
Download or read book I Thought He was a Speed Bump-- and Other Excuses from Life in the Fast Lane written by Terry Marotta and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Most people in this country hurry too much. I know, because I have been one of them. For much of my adult life, I've broken dozens of glasses and plates each year whipping them in and out of the dishwasher, thinking all the while,'Get it done, get it done.' So begins this collection of reader-favorite columns, with its varied chapter headings ("Latin For the Not Yet Dead," "Fruit of The Loom Jesus" and "When Will Dad Become a Woman?") all centered around what kids have to teach us: about not driving so fast that we hardly know what - or, in the story which gives the book its title - who are driving over. "A delightful valentine to dispel the humdrum quality of everyday experience, Marotta's observations are rife with gentle wit and an enviable wisdom." The Boston Globe "At last: a book for frazzled people everywhere.... Full of faith hope and heart." The Cape Cod Times "Marotta's words pop out at you like those 3-D castles in a child's book." The Palm Beach Post I laughed and cried. It brought me a sense of connectedness and joy; It made my soul sing! - A reader in Vermont.

Download or read book Age of Cage written by Keith Phipps and published by Henry Holt and Company. This book was released on 2022-03-29 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An NPR "Books We Love" 2022 “Age of Cage might be the closest we will get to understanding the singular beauty of each of Nic Cage’s always electric performances. You are holding the Rosetta Stone for Cage. Enjoy it.” —Paul Scheer, actor, writer and host of the How Did This Get Made? and Unspooled podcasts Icon. Celebrity. Artist. Madman. Genius. Nicolas Cage is many things, but love him, or laugh at him, there's no denying two things: you’ve seen one of his many films, and you certainly know his name. But who is he, really, and why has his career endured for over forty years, with more than a hundred films, and birthed a million memes? Age of Cage is a smart, beguiling book about the films of Nicolas Cage and the actor himself, as well as a sharp-eyed examination of the changes that have taken place in Hollywood over the course of his career. Critic and journalist Keith Phipps draws a portrait of the enigmatic icon by looking at—what else?—Cage’s expansive filmography. As Phipps delights in charting Cage’s films, Age of Cage also chronicles the transformation of film, as Cage’s journey takes him through the world of 1980s comedies (Valley Girl, Peggy Sue Got Married, Moonstruck), to the indie films and blockbuster juggernauts of the 1990s (Wild at Heart, Leaving Las Vegas, Face/Off, Con Air), through the wild and unpredictable video-on-demand world of today. Sweeping in scope and intimate in its profile of a fiercely passionate artist, Age of Cage is, like the man himself, surprising, insightful, funny, and one of a kind. So, snap out of it, and enjoy this appreciation of Nicolas Cage, national treasure.

Book Synopsis Technical Artefacts: Creations of Mind and Matter by : Peter Kroes
Download or read book Technical Artefacts: Creations of Mind and Matter written by Peter Kroes and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-05-24 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an attempt to understand the nature of technical artefacts and the way they come into being. Its primary focus is the kind of technical artefacts designed and produced by modern engineering. In spite of their pervasive influence on human thinking and doing, and therefore on the modern human condition, a philosophical analysis of technical artefacts and engineering design is lacking. Among the questions addressed are: How do technical artefacts fit into the furniture of the universe? In what sense are they different from objects from the natural world, or from the social world? What kind of activity is engineering design and what does it mean to say that technical artefacts are the embodiment of a design? Does it make sense to consider technical artefacts to be morally good or bad by themselves because of the way they influence human life? The book advances the thesis that technical artefacts, conceived of as physical constructions with a technical function, have a dual nature; they are hybrid objects combining physical and intentional features. It proposes a theory of technical functions and technical artefact kinds that does justice to this dual nature, analyses engineering design from the dual nature point of view, and argues that technical artefacts, because of their dual nature, have inherent moral significance.
Book Synopsis The Kneeling Man by : Leta McCollough Seletzky
Download or read book The Kneeling Man written by Leta McCollough Seletzky and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intimate and heartbreaking story of a Black undercover police officer who famously kneeled by the assassinated Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr—and a daughter’s quest for the truth about her father In the famous photograph of the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. on the balcony of Memphis’s Lorraine Motel, one man kneeled down beside King, trying to staunch the blood from his fatal head wound with a borrowed towel. This kneeling man was a member of the Invaders, an activist group that was in talks with King in the days leading up to the murder. But he also had another identity: an undercover Memphis police officer reporting on the activities of this group, which was thought to be possibly dangerous and potentially violent. This kneeling man is Leta McCollough Seletzky’s father. Marrell McCollough was a Black man working secretly with the white power structure, a spy. This was so far from her understanding of what it meant to be Black in America, of everything she eventually devoted her life and career to, that she set out to learn what she could about his life, his actions and motivations. But with that decision came risk. What would she uncover about her father, who went on to a career at the CIA, and did she want to bear the weight of knowing?
Book Synopsis Speed Bumps on the Way to Heaven by : April Vider
Download or read book Speed Bumps on the Way to Heaven written by April Vider and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-05-08 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the Bible relevant? Of course it is. It is the story of God's redemptive love for mankind, but is it relevant to me and the particular circumstances of my life? In Speed Bumps on the Way to Heaven, I relive my own life-changing transformational stories and then put the Bible to the test. Does it have value? Yes! Is it relevant? Yes! Each chapter, each speed bump, proves that it is. Stories of all types are found within the pages of the Bible. Marvelous, wonderful stories are there. Terrible, frightening stories as well. Many are well-loved and well-known, but many are overlooked and barely known. Do the names Tamar, Amnon, and Absalom ring any bells? Their story, for example, causes their three lives and the lives of their entire nation to irrevocably and drastically change. Few today know the story, yet it is profoundly relevant to far too many of us. Join me as I survey the Bible for its parallels between my life and its characters and themes. Stories from my childhood include, but are not limited to, those relating to mother-daughter conflicts, guilt, early failure, and young marriage. Stories from adulthood include those, for example, relating to poor health, my mother's suicide, and aging parents. They are my own Speed Bumps on the Way to Heaven. I found myself in the pages of the Bible. Will you find yourself there?
Book Synopsis Speed Bumps and Angels by : Cherie Kirby Hill Wren
Download or read book Speed Bumps and Angels written by Cherie Kirby Hill Wren and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-03-14 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tornado warnings were posted in Canton, Ohio, on the night of author Cherie Kirby Hill Wrens birth in 1943. The storm was just a normal occurrence, but she cant help think it was a precursor of her life to come. In Speed Bumps and Angels, Wren recaps the storms and speed bumps she has experienced in her life: nearly drowning when she was just two years old; being hit by a car; getting jilted, twice; running away from home and marrying a man who was abusive and ultimately tried to kill her; developing type 2 diabetes; being diagnosed with benign essential blepharospasm; having her mitral and aortic valves replaced; gaining a pacemaker; and enduring pulmonary hypertension. In this memoir, Wren shows how these bumps served their purpose. First, they slowed her down so she didnt run out of control. Second, they gave her a little jolt, sometimes back to reality. Third, they kept her from getting too complacent. She shows that by conquering challenges, we grow and learn. We are here for a purpose, and by living each day to the fullest we can, knowingly or unknowingly, accomplish that purpose.
