Title: Bigger Than Life: The History of Gay Porn Cinema from Beefcake to Hardcore - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Hardcore porn - both the straight and gay varieties - entered mainstream American culture in the 1970s as the sexual revolution swept away many of the cultural inhibitions and legal restraints on explicit sexual expression. The first porn movie ever to be reviewed by Variety, the entertainment industry's leading trade journal, was Wakefield Poole's Boys in the Sand (1971), a sexually-explicit gay movie shot on Fire Island with a budget of $4000.

One for the Girls!: The Pleasures and Practices of Reading Women's Porn - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: We usually think of women as the victims of pornography rather than its consumers. Whether appearing in films, peering provocatively from the pages of magazines, or posing on explicit Web-sites, women are considered the dehumanized objects of unseen lascivious male viewers. But in her controversial new book One for the Girls!, Clarissa Smith debunks this myth and challenges women to read, watch, and enjoy pornography on their own terms. Focusing on the British magazine For Women, Smith looks at its readers’ responses to male pinups and erotica and explores the intricacies of women’s unique reactions to pornography.  “Clarissa Smith has achieved something special with her new proffering from her masculinities repertoire. Smith’s text is groundbreaking, multidisciplinary and—equally importantly—extremely readable. It is the last point perhaps that really sets this work apart, as One for the Girls has a great deal to offer both the specialist academic and the general reader. Clarissa Smith’s accessible style allows readers with little prior knowledge of critical theory, cultural studies or the 1980s pornography debate, to not only understand these discourses, but to develop a strong grasp of their impact in this context.”—Michelle Parsons, Transition Tradition

نویسندگان: خلاصه: • Lower your risk of metabolic disorders, disease, and chronic weight gain• Protect yourself against the estrogenic substances in the environment, products, water, and food• Learn how certain foods and herbs can protect you!Estrogenic chemicals—known for causing the near extinction of various living species—are found in some of the most common foods we eat.In this revolutionary diet book, Ori Hofmekler addresses the millions of overweight and obese individuals who have failed or are disappointed with other diets—those who suffer from yoyo dieting, weight gain rebounds, or accumulation of stubborn fat in the belly and other estrogen-sensitive areas. Focusing on our current over-exposure to estrogenic chemicals in the environment, foods, and water, The Anti-Estrogenic Diet provides a practical solution to fat gain, estrogen-related disorders (PMS, endometriosis, fibrocystic disease), and increased risk of common cancers in women and men (breast, ovarian, cervical, prostate).Allowing you to still enjoy your favorite foods, the program is based on incorporating anti-estrogenic foods, spices, and herbs into your diet, while eliminating estrogenic foods and chemicals. Exposing dietary myths and fallacies, Hofmekler teaches readers that some foods commonly regarded as “healthy” may actually be harmful and vice versa.Special chapters dedicated to readers with different needs and health conditions, recipes, a question-and-answer section, and a list of scientific references are also included in this valuable resource.
Electronics For You - Projects and Ideas 2000 - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: ransistor lead identification is cru-cial in designing and servicing. A cir-cuit designer or a serviceman must befully conversant with the types of tran-sistors used in a circuit. Erroneous leadidentification may lead to malfunctions,and, in extreme cases, even destructionof the circuit being designed or serviced.Though transistor manufacturers en-capsulate their products in different pack-age outlines for identification, it is im-possible to memorise the outlines of in-numerable transistors manufactured bythe industry. Although a number ofmanuals are published, which provide pindetails, they may not always be acces-sible. Besides, it is not always easy tofind out the details of a desired transis-tor by going through the voluminousmanuals. But, a handy gadget, called tran-sistor lead identifier, makes the job easy.All one has to do is place the transistorin the gadget’s socket to instantly get thedesired information on its display, irre-spective of the type and package-outlineof the device under test.A manually controlled version of thepresent project had been published in June’84 issue of EFY. The present model is to-tally microprocessor controlled, and henceall manually controlled steps are replacedby software commands. A special circuit,shown in Fig. 1, which acts as an interfaceto an 8085 -based microprocessor kit, hasbeen developed for the purpose.

The Myths of Standardized Tests: Why They Don't Tell You What You Think They Do - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Pundits, politicians, and business leaders continually make claims for what standardized tests can do, and those claims go largely unchallenged because they are in line with popular assumptions about what these tests can do, what the scores mean, and the psychology of human motivation. But what most of what these opinion leaders say-and the public believes-about standardized testing just isn't so. However, few members of the general public, not even concerned parents, have the time or the background to keep up with the latest findings of testing experts, psychometricians, and researchers. That's where The Myths of Standardized Tests comes in. In simple, accessible language, Harris, Smith, and Harris spell out the assumptions underlying standardized tests and point out what's true about them and what's just plain mythical. But they not only debunk common assumptions; they propose better ways to judge the success of our schools. They also offer readers suggestions for ways they can help reduce the burden of tests on their children.Appendixes offer readers contact information and suggestions for actions they can take to become part of the solution to the problem of overusing and misusing standardized tests.

Attached: The New Science of Adult Attachment and How It Can Help You Find – and Keep – Love - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Is there a science to love? In this groundbreaking book, psychiatrist and neuroscientist Amir Levine and Rachel S. F. Heller reveal how an understanding of attachment theory-the most advanced relationship science in existence today-can help us find and sustain love. Attachment theory forms the basis for many bestselling books on the parent/child relationship, but there has yet to be an accessible guide to what this fascinating science has to tell us about adult romantic relationships-until now. Attachment theory owes its inception to British psychologist and psychoanalyst John Bowlby, who in the 1950s examined the tremendous impact that our early relationships with our parents or caregivers has on the people we become. Also central to attachment theory is the discovery that our need to be in a close relationship with one or more individuals is embedded in our genes. In Attached, Levine and Heller trace how these evolutionary influences continue to shape who we are in our relationships today. According to attachment theory, every person behaves in relationships in one of three distinct ways: *ANXIOUS people are often preoccupied with their relationships and tend to worry about their partner's ability to love them back. *AVOIDANT people equate intimacy with a loss of independence and constantly try to minimize closeness. *SECURE people feel comfortable with intimacy and are usually warm and loving. Attached guides readers in determining what attachment style they and their mate (or potential mates) follow. It also offers readers a wealth of advice on how to navigate their relationships more wisely given their attachment style and that of their partner. An insightful look at the science behind love, Attached offers readers a road map for building stronger, more fulfilling connections.Author(s): Amir Levine, Rachel Heller Publisher: Penguin Group USA, Year: 2010 ISBN: 1585428485,9781585428489آیا 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.
