You Say More Than You Think: A 7-Day Plan for Using the New Body Language to Get What You Want - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Mind not only what people say, but how they say it; and if you have any sagacity, youmay discover more truth by your eyes than by your ears. People can say what they will, but theycannot look just as they will; and their looks frequently reveal what their words are calculated toconceal.—LORD CHESTERFIELD (1694–1773), LETTER TO HIS SONImagine a mirror suddenly dropped down before you during your last meeting, salesnegotiation, date, friendly get-together, or confrontation.Would you be able to spot the subtle nonverbal clues that may be sabotaging you in thesesituations—and keeping you from reaching your fullest potential?Are your facial expressions awkward?Are your hand gestures not quite right?Do you appear weak or arrogant or older than you are?Does the way you shake hands discourage people from doing business with you?Does your body language clash with your words?Do you have a glaring flaw that everyone notices but you?We interact with other people all day long, in every meaningful moment in our lives. Butwe don’t always understand what they’re thinking—nor do they understand our thoughts. If wedon’t have well-developed social perception, we may experience repeated failures: losing to thecompetition, job interview bombs, failed dates, trampled trust. But if we can hone that perception,learn to read people better, and communicate more effectively, that knowledge helps us in everypart of our lives. We start to enjoy more exciting career opportunities, more honest friendships,better dating prospects, even more frequent wins at work!Look at the successful people who cross your path daily. I’d bet most have at least twocharacteristics in common. First, they possess a sense of serene self-awareness. They seemcomfortable in their own skin. Second, they have a better-than-average ability to connect withother people. They know how to put people at ease and create an immediate sense of rapport.Both of these traits stem directly from a strong command of body language.Uncovering the mysteries of body language—how people communicate their thoughtsand feelings without saying a word—is a powerful first step toward mastering any socialsituation. All successful people know that the ability to detect and react to the split-second signalsthat skim across people’s bodies hundreds of times each day is crucial to getting what they wantin life. When something they’re doing isn’t effective, they’ve learned how to adjust their actionsto maximize the moment

So Long, See You Tomorrow - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: This Orange Inheritance Edition of "So Long, See You Tomorrow" is published in association with the Orange Prize for Fiction. Books shape our lives and transform the way we see ourselves and each other. The best books are timeless and continue to be relevant generation after generation. "Vintage Classics" asked the winners of The Orange Prize for Fiction which books they would pass onto the next generation and why. Ann Patchett chose "So Long, See You Tomorrow". In rural Illinois, two tenant farmers share much, finally too much, until jealously leads to murder and suicide. A tenuous friendship between lonely teenagers - the narrator, whose mother has died young, and Cletus Smith, the troubled witness to his parent's misery - is shattered. After the murder and upheavals that follow, the boys never speak again. Fifty years on, the narrator attempts a reconstruction of those devastating events and the atonement of a lifetime's regret. "The novel comes from a place so deep inside the human soul that I cannot imagine a time its wisdom would not feel fresh and applicable". (Ann Patchett).
Careers for gourmets & others who relish food - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: re there opportunities in the food industry? I say thereare. Just fifty years ago, it was not considered a goodidea for a young person to contemplate a career in cook-ing. Agriculture, yes, but not in the preparation of food or in thefew elements that made up the food industry at that time. As anation, our interest in good food has increased dramatically, andit will continue to increase. We are no longer a nation of meat,potatoes, and apple pie eaters. We want good vegetables andfruit, good cheese, and good prepared products.How has all of this evolved? First of all, it was the passionshared by a few food enthusiasts such as Julia Child, James Beard,Craig Claiborne, Elizabeth David, and Alice Waters. All of themwere exposed to the foods of France and Italy and decided thatAmerica needed change in its eating habits. And change it hashad! Many young people today share that passion and are find-ing satisfying and rewarding careers—not just cooking, but in allparts of the food industry: writing, teaching, catering, small spe-cialized agriculture, as well as baking and candy or jam making.Five years ago would you have thought that Italian-type bis-cotti, made by small bakers, would be available in every special-ized food shop in America? Or that small farmer’s markets wouldagain be the way to get fresher fruit and vegetables? There aremany changes taking place in what we eat, where we eat, andwho provides our food. It all depends on people with a passionfor food and the will to share it with others.Chuck WilliamsFounder, Vice-Chairman of the BoardWilliams-Sonoma, Inc.

As You Like It (Webster's Thai Thesaurus Edition) - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Webster’s paperbacks take advantage of the fact that classics are frequently assigned readings inEnglish courses. By using a running English-to-Thai thesaurus at the bottom of each page, thisedition of As You Like It by William Shakespeare was edited for three audiences. The first includesThai-speaking students enrolled in an English Language Program (ELP), an English as a ForeignLanguage (EFL) program, an English as a Second Language Program (ESL), or in a TOEFL® orTOEIC® preparation program. The second audience includes English-speaking students enrolled inbilingual education programs or Thai speakers enrolled in English-speaking schools. The thirdaudience consists of students who are actively building their vocabularies in Thai in order to takeforeign service, translation certification, Advanced Placement® (AP®) 1 or similar examinations. Byusing the Webster's Thai Thesaurus Edition when assigned for an English course, the reader canenrich their vocabulary in anticipation of an examination in Thai or English.Webster’s edition of this classic is organized to expose the reader to a maximum number ofdifficult and potentially ambiguous English words. Rare or idiosyncratic words and expressions aregiven lower priority compared to “difficult, yet commonly used” words. Rather than supply a singletranslation, many words are translated for a variety of meanings in Thai, allowing readers to bettergrasp the ambiguity of English, and avoid them using the notes as a pure translation crutch. Havingthe reader decipher a word’s meaning within context serves to improve vocabulary retention andunderstanding. Each page covers words not already highlighted on previous pages. If a difficultword is not translated on a page, chances are that it has been translated on a previous page. A morecomplete glossary of translations is supplied at the end of the book; translations are extracted fromWebster’s Online Dictionary.
