Rod Steiger: Memoirs of a Friendship
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hutchinson, Tom / Bradbury, Ray, PUBLISHER: Fromm International, Rod Steiger is a frank and intimate memoir of this troubled and immensely talented actor, one of Hollywood's most charismatic and dynamic stars, by a film critic and longtime friend of Steiger's. Steiger has lived a life as full of drama as any he portrayed on screen. His father walked out after he was born, and his mother became an alcoholic. At sixteen he enlisted in the navy. With the help of the GI Bill, he studied alongside Marlon Brando and Marilyn Monroe at the Actors' Studio. Steiger's startling intensity first made its mark on television in Paddy Chayevsky's Marty. On the screen, his career was dramatically established in his second film, On the Waterfront, with Brando. Though he was nominated for an Oscar for his memorable performance in Sidney Lumet's The Pawnbroker, he didn't win the coveted award until he starred as a redneck police chief in In the Heat of the Night in . In the seventies, at the top of his success, his career faltered and he sank into a deep depression that held him in its grip for several years. Altogether, Steiger has appeared in eighty-seven films.

Videotexts
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gale, Peggy, PUBLISHER: Wilfrid Laurier University Press, When the video camera first appeared on the market, artists hailed the newly available equipment as the new pencil, the better canvas, the best eye of all. The medium was exciting and revolutionary: low-cost and low-tech; "everybody" was curious as galleries and museums hastened to program new video works in festivals and exhibitions. However, little aesthetic or critical material was available on either artists or issues: it was generally assumed that artists' video was just some kind of wannabe television -- its concerns and achievements, and its relationship to the visual arts generally were too often undervalued. But video artists continued to explore and advance in the medium and works produced in the seventies are strikingly different from those of today. "Videotexts" is an invaluable collection of essays -- a comprehensive guide to Canadian video artists and their works. The essays focus on important individual tapes and artists and on the development of narrative forms: to construct meaning and confirm memory. Revised and updated, they offer a "present-tense" assessment of key works from the last twenty-five years, and of artists' ideas and processes as they were unfolding. Everyone interested in video and contemporary art and culture will want to read them.

Montserrate, the Still family's lazy au pair, is helping to hide Mrs. Still's illicit affair with a television actor--for a small fee. June, the haughty housekeeper to a princess of dubious origin, is hard at work forming a "society" for servants to address complaints about their employers. Meanwhile, a disturbed gardener, Dex, believes a voice in his cellphone is giving him godlike instructions--that could endanger the lives of all who reside in Hexam Place. A deeply observed and suspenseful update to the upstairs/downstairs genre, "The""St. Zita Society" is Ruth Rendall at her incisive best.

A Man Called Shirley
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Porterfield, Mannix, PUBLISHER: iUniverse.com, Shirley Love might have spent his life as an obscure welder, struggling to raise his family in West Virginia, but a performance in church one Sunday changed his life. As Love sang a little-known hymn, a worshipper-a radio station owner-was impressed with the teenager's voice and invited him to audition as an announcer. Although reluctant, Love tried out and landed the position. From there, he moved into fledgling television and began to anchor a raucous local event: Saturday Night Wrestlin'. The show, always completely scripted, triggered passions ignited by the demeaning talk, revealing the worst in human emotions. Through it all, Love kept his demeanor, dodging a hail of soft drinks and rotten vegetables hurled by irate fans at the wrestlers. Love's popularity thrust him into West Virginia politics, attending National Democratic Conventions as a delegate and gaining a gubernatorial appointment as a state senator-a post to which he was reelected in every subsequent election cycle. Author Mannix Porterfield chronicles the engaging details of Shirley Love's life, through the eyes of Love, his family, and his colleagues. Love's life proves that talent, desire, and energy can propel a shy individual with a provocative name from obscurity to success.
Billy the Kid: A Short and Violent Life
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Utley, Robert M., PUBLISHER: University of Nebraska Press, Whatever his name or alias at the moment--Henry McCarty, Henry Antrim, Kid Antrim, Billy Bonney--people always called him the Kid. Not until his final month did anyone call him Billy the Kid. Newspapers pictured him as a king of outlaws; and his highly publicized capture, trial, escape, and end fixed his image in the public mind for all time. He was only twenty-one years old when a bullet from Sheriff Pat Garett's six-shooter killed him on July . Within a year Billy the Kid became the subject of five dime-novel "biographies" as well as Garett's ghost-written account, and that was just the beginning. Robert M. Utley does what countless books, movies, television shows, musical compositions, and paintings have failed to do: he successfully strips off the veneer of legendry to expose the reality of Billy the Kid. Using previously untapped sources, he presents an engrossing story--the most complete and accurate ever--of a youthful hoodlum and sometime killer who found his calling in New Mexico's bloody power struggle known as the Lincoln County War. In unmasking the legend Utley also tells us much about our heritage of frontier vigilantism and violence.

Pioneer + Lepai sistema completo 2.1
Sistema riproduzione HiFi 2.1 composto da subwoofer + satelliti a due vie Pioneer S e amplificatore mosfet Lepai LP-168Ha, completo di cavi. Il piccolo ma potente amplificatore eroga watt per i canali destro sinistro e 68 watt per il subwoofer. In rete si possono trovare recensioni lusinghiere. E' stata fatta upgrade con la sostituzione del circuito integrato per i canali destro sinistro con miglioramento del suono, l'alimentatore originale sostituito con uno con doppio amperaggio. E' utilizzabile anche in auto poiché alimentato a 12v max 14,4v. Il subwoofer, dato che la frequenza di taglio del Lepai è di soli 2 db/ottava, è stato dotato di filtro taglia alto a bobina e condensatore a 12 db/ottava (vedasi foto). Il risultato del sistema così composto è eccellente, suona molto meglio di analoghe realizzazioni reperibili sul mercato come Trust, Empire, Logitech, LG,Creative, Scott ecc. (l'ho messo a confronto con qualcuno di questi risultando di gran lunga superiore). Si può utilizzare collegato a PC, smartphone sia android che iPhone, riproduttori mp3, televisione in luogo delle sound bar (è noto che le flat television hanno una scarsa qualità del suono). A disposizione, su appuntamento, per prova dimostrativa. Ritiro o consegna a mano, posso spedire con costo a carico dell'acquirente.
Eat Your Cholesterol!
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Douglass, William Campbell, PUBLISHER: Rhino Publishing S.A., How to Live off the Fat of the Land and Feel Great? Eat Meat, Drink Milk, Spread The Butter And Live Longer Americans are being saturated with anti-cholesterol propaganda. If you watch very much television, you're probably one of the millions of Americans who now has a terminal case of cholesterol phobia. The propaganda is relentless and is often designed to produce fear and loathing of this worst of all food contaminants. You never hear the food propagandists bragging about their product being fluoride-free or aluminum-free, two of our truly serious food-additive problems. But cholesterol, an essential nutrient, not proven to be harmful in any quantity, is constantly pilloried as a menace to your health. If you don't use corn oil, Fleischmann's margarine, and Egg Beaters, you're going straight to atherosclerosis hell with stroke, heart attack, and premature aging -- and so are your kids. Never feel guilty about what you eat again Dr. Douglass shows you why red meat, eggs, and dairy products aren't the dietary demons we're told they are. But beware: This scientifically sound report goes against all the "common wisdom" about the foods you should eat. Read with an open mind.
Russia: A Journey to the Heart of a Land and Its People
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dimbleby, Jonathan, PUBLISHER: BBC Books, Russia is a country in transition. It is a land of exotic treasures with a culture rich in world-famous artists, writers and musicians. It is a swiftly modernizing economy yet still a place of corruption, suppression, and secrecy, shaking off its recent, bloody past of Communist dictatorship. Russia may no longer be seen to rival America, but with control over a huge portion of the world's remaining non-renewable energy resources, it is a rapidly rising energy super-power. Yet, shrouded in myth and ice, it is little understood by the rest of world. Travelling thousands of miles, Jonathan journeys from Kaliningrad in the west to Provideniya in the east to discover modern Russia. Passing through some of the most extreme landscape on earth, several climates and across seven time zones, he visits places "spectacular, infamous, secret" that witnessed defining moments in Russia's extraordinary history. The people that inhabit this vast landmass are as fascinating and diverse as the landscape. Caught between Asia and Europe, they are a mix of ethnicities, a product of Russian expansionism and their turbulent past. In this book and the groundbreaking television series it accompanies, Jonathan looks at how Russia's past has shaped her current identity and investigates what modern Russia means to her people now.
Everybody Knows: Cynicism in America
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Chaloupkia, William, PUBLISHER: University of Minnesota Press, There has never been a more cynical era in American history. Disaffection from government institutions is at an all-time high. Ordinary citizens perceive political leaders to be more manipulative and jaded than ever. In Everyday Knows, William Chaloupka scrutinizes the cynicism that is our common condition, examining both its uses in the politics of backlash and resentment and its surprisingly positive aspects. Everyday Knows traces cynicism from its classical origins but emphasizes its recent emergence in American culture and politics, following a trajectory form H. L. Mencken to Richard Nixon to Bill Clinton. Cutting neatly across ideological divisions, Chaloupka discusses the ways in which cynicism is rooted in all democratic politics, and analyzes the role of the media -- in particular, television news, political ads and speeches, and books such as E. J. Dionne's Why Americans Hate Politics and William Bennett's The Book of Virtues -- in dissecting and encouraging cynicism. Chaloupka describes mass cynicism, which permeates popular culture; outsider cynicism, which is capable of cranky, even violent disruption; and the cynicism of those in power. He argues that those who issue broad pleas for civility or a renewal of community spirit usually misunderstand the cynicism they wish to treat. He also discusses the value of a cheeky, subversive "kynicism" to evoke the lively democratic practice American society must foster.

Crowded Airwaves: Campaign Advertising in Elections
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Nelson, Candace J. / Dulio, David A. / Thurber, James A., PUBLISHER: Brookings Institution Press, Political advertising plays a key role in modern electioneering and has formed part of political campaigns since the earliest federal elections were held in the United States. As modes of mass communication have evolved, so have the venues for campaign advertisingfrom newspapers to radio and television, and today, the Internet. Not only have the outlets for political advertising expanded over the past twenty years, so have the number of groups using it to convey information and advance their points of view. Because political advertising has become such a pervasive medium for candidates, political parties, and special interest groups, understanding its role in election campaigns becomes all the more important. Crowded Airwaves gathers some of the most significant new work in American political advertising and communication. The contributors provide an objective and balanced analysis of political advertising: its causes, its growth, and its consequences on elections in the United States. The chapters in this volume tackle three of the most interesting and most complicated issues in political advertising today: the characterization of ads and the need to measure their impact; the agenda-setting and priming effects of ads; and the role and implications of issue advertising for the electorate. The contributors focus in particular on the effects and consequences of negative advertising. Crowded Airwaves will appeal to readers who are interested in political campaigns and communication. It will be of special importance to those concerned with the tone and content of electoral campaigns and political discourse.
The Subject Is Research: Processes and Practices
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bishop, Wendy / Zemliansky, Pavel, PUBLISHER: Heinemann Educational Books, There are two kinds of student researchers: those who thrive on the time and detail demands of the research process and those who would rather have a root canal than develop a thesis statement. "The Subject Is Research" is written for both of them. The contributors, some of whom are students, all realize that sometimes the process works and sometimes it doesn't. But by researching and studying their processes, they've all improved and gained satisfaction from their work. "The Subject Is Research" provides the insight and ideas, directions and insider's advice that will help your students become the best research writers they can be. This research can take many forms - from library and Web searching to interviewing and watching television. Some chapters explode myths about research and others offer inventories, exercises, and alternatives to help students begin, continue, and complete a research project with more comfort and success than they have previously experienced. There are also chapters that illuminate what students are being asked to do. For extra help, "Sharing Ideas" at the end of each section encourage students to think aloud (or in a journal or classroom discussion) about their relationships to systematic, scholarly inquiry, and "Hint Sheets" at the end of the book offer lots of activities and resources for both teachers and students, including information sources, style sheets, and much more.
