Stephen Colbert and Philosophy: I Am Philosophy (and So Can You!) - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: At the head of The Colbert Report, one of the most popular shows on television, Stephen Colbert is a pop culture phenomenon. More than one million people backed his fake candidacy in the 2008 U.S. presidential election on Facebook, a testament to the particularly rich set of issues and emotions Colbert brings to mind. Stephen Colbert and Philosophy is crammed with thoughtful and amusing chapters, each written by a philosopher and all focused on Colbert's inimitable reality — from his word creations (truthiness, wikiality, freem, and others) to his position as a faux-pundit who openly mocks Fox News and CNN. Although most of the discussion is centered around The Colbert Report, this collection does not neglect either his best-selling book, I Am America (And So Can You!), or his public performances, including his incendiary 2006 White House Press Correspondents' Dinner speech.

نویسندگان: خلاصه: Propped upon a mountain of satin pillows amid rumpled bed linens,Helene Devernay surveyed his bronzed, muscular torso with anappreciative smile as Stephen David Elliott Westmoreland, Earl ofLangford, Baron of Ellingwood, Fifth Viscount Hargrove, ViscountAshbourne, shrugged into the frilled shirt he'd tossed over the foot of thebed last night. "Are we still attending the theatre next week?" she asked.Stephen glanced at her in surprise as he picked up his neckcloth. "Ofcourse." Turning to the mirror above the fireplace, he met her gaze in itwhile he deftly wrapped the fine white silk into intricate folds around hisneck. "Why did you need to ask?""Because the Season begins next week, and Monica Fitzwaring is comingto town. I heard it from my dressmaker, who is also hers.""And?" he said, looking steadily at her in the mirror, his expressionbetraying not even a flicker of reaction.With a sigh, Helene rolled onto her side and leaned on an elbow, hertone regretful but frank. "And gossip has it that you're finally going to makeher the offer she and her father have been waiting for these three yearspast."

The VueScan Bible: Everything You Need to Know for Perfect Scanning (English and English Edition) - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: VueScan is the world's most widely used software interface for digitizing film and prints on flatbed and film scanners. This powerful yet affordable program supports over 1500 scanners and 321 digital camera RAW file types, and is available for Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux. Much more than a simple scanner program, VueScan allows you to perform functions such as color restoration, adding sharpening filters, adjusting white balance, rotating images, and batch scanning multiple images. It also provides output to a variety of formats including TIFF, JPEG, and searchable PDF files (even all three simultaneously). The Pro version outputs to the RAW format and provides options for color adjustments, and more. Despite its popularity, the documentation for VueScan does not provide enough information to use the full power of the system and makes it difficult to get started. The VueScan Bible is the missing manual for new, experienced, and prospective users of VueScan.

If You're Reading This, It's Too Late - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: he torch pierced the darknessThe torch slashed through the darknessThe torch beam sliced through the darkness like a swordThe torch beam darted – yes! – across the dark hall,illuminating a wondrous collection of antique curiosities.Finely illustrated tarot cards of wizened kings andlaughing fools . . . glistening Chinese lacquer boxes concealingspring traps and secret compartments . . . intricately carvedcups of wood and ivory designed for making coins andmarbles and even fingers disappear . . . shining silver ringsthat a knowing hand could link and unlink as if they weremade of air . . .A museum of magic.The circle of light lingered on a luminous crystal ball, asif waiting for some swirling image to appear on the surface.Then it hesitated on a large bronze lantern – once home,perhaps, to a powerful genie.Finally, the torch beam found its way to a glass displaycase sitting alone on top of a black pedestal in the middle ofthe room.‘Ha! At last!’ said a woman with a voice like ice.The man behind the torch snickered. ‘Who was it thatsaid the best place to hide something was in plain sight?What an idiot.’ His accent was odd, ominous.‘Just do it!’ hissed the woman.prologueGrasping the heavy torch tight in his gloved hand,the man brought it down like an axe. Glass shattered in acascade, exposing a milky-white orb – a giant pearl? – sittingon a bed of black velvet.Ignoring the sharp, glittering shards, the womanreached with a delicately thin hand – in a delicately thinwhite glove – and pulled out the orb.About the size of an ostrich egg, it was translucentand seemed almost to glow from within. The surface had ahoneycomb sort of texture comprised of many holes of varyingsizes. A thin band of silver circled the orb, dividing it into twoequal hemispheres.The woman pushed aside her white-blonde hair andheld the mysterious object to her perfectly shaped ear. As sheturned it over, it whispered like an open bottle in the wind.‘I can almost hear him,’ she gloated. ‘That horridmonster!’‘You’re so sure he’s alive? It’s been four, five hundredyears . . .’‘A creature like that – so impossible to make – is all themore impossible to kill,’ she replied, still listening to the ballin her hand.A small red bloodstain now marked her white glovewhere one of the glass shards had cut through; she didn’tseem to notice. ‘But now he can escape us no longer. TheSecret will be mine!’The torch beam fell.‘I mean ours, darling.’Beneath the shattered display a small brass plaquegleamed. The Sound Prism, origin unknown, it read
What Have They Built You to Do?: The Manchurian Candidate and Cold War America - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Considered by many to be the best political thriller ever made, The Manchurian Candidate is as entertaining, troubling, and relevant today as it was in 1962. Starring Frank Sinatra, Laurence Harvey, and Angela Lansbury, and directed with probing insight by John Frankenheimer, the film was widely acclaimed as a masterpiece. Largely out of circulation for the next two decades, it acquired a well-deserved cult following until it was rereleased during the last year of the Reagan presidency, when its pointed satire of political and media manipulation seemed more timely than ever. In What Have They Built You to Do?—a key line of dialogue from the original film—Matthew Frye Jacobson and Gaspar Gonz?lez undertake an ambitious reexamination of The Manchurian Candidate, the 1959 novel by Richard Condon on which it was based, and—critically analyzed here for the first time—the 2004 remake directed by Jonathan Demme. Based on close readings of the film and broad investigations into the eras in which it was made and rediscovered, the authors decode the many layers of meaning within and surrounding the film, from the contradictions of the Cold War it both embodies and parodies—McCarthyism and Kennedy liberalism, individualism and conformity—to its construction of Asian villains, overbearing women, and male heroes in a society anxious about race, gender, and sexuality. Through their multifaceted analysis of The Manchurian Candidate (in all its incarnations), Jacobson and Gonz?lez raise provocative questions about power and anxiety in American politics and society from the Cold War to today. Matthew Frye Jacobson teaches American studies at Yale University. His books include Roots Too: White Ethnic Revival in Post–Civil Rights America. Gaspar Gonz?lez is an independent scholar and journalist in Miami. He has taught American studies at Yale University and film studies at the University of Miami.آیا کتاب مورد نظر هنوز بر روی سایت قرار نگرفته است؟ جای نگرانی نیست! کافی است بر روی گزینه سفارش کتاب کلیک کرده و درخواست خود را ثبت کنید. در کمتر از چند ساعت کتاب شما را آماده خواهیم کرد.
