Death, Taxes, &, A Two-Song Set

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Strippers and strip clubs are all over the news and in movies and television shows. There are websites devoted to the subject of strip clubs and they do a tremendous traffic. There are no published statistics that I am aware of with a count of how many people visit strip clubs every year, but we all know it`s a lot. TV talk show hosts we know and love have tried to figure out why, and I have some answers. It`s my story, and the stories of just a few of the girls, but it will shed a little light on the bigger picture. It should be of interest to men who go and the women who wonder why. I am a `nice guy`, but in the past 5 years I have spent hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars overindulging in this vice, initially as self-prescribed therapy for my divorce. I can now honestly say that some of my best friends are strippers! Ridiculous and fun times, stupidity, and tragedy…it`s been a grand adventure and it definitely changed my life - so I want to share it with you. [detailed...]

Roger Scruton
Death-Devoted Heart: Sex and Sacred in Wagner`s Tristan and Isolde

2003 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: A tale of forbidden love and inevitable death, the medieval legend of Tristan and Isolde recounts the story of two lovers unknowingly drinking a magic potion and ultimately dying in one another`s arms. Critics have lauded Wagner`s Tristanund Isolde for the originality and subtlety of the music, but have often viewed the drama as a `mere trifle,` about Wagner`s own forbidden affair with Matilde Wesendonk, the wife of a banker who supported him during his exile in Switzerland. In Death-Devoted Heart Scruton aims to vindicate the stature of the drama, presenting it as more than just a sublimation of the composer`s love for Wesendonck or a wistful romantic dream. Scruton argues that Tristan und Isolde has profound religious meaning, as relevant today as it was to Wagner`s contemporaries. Both philosophical and musicological, Scruton`s analysis touches on the nature of tragedy, the significance of ritual sacrifice, and the meaning of redemption. Scruton provides a guide to the drama while… [detailed...]

Debating Affirmative Action: Conceptual, Contextual and Comparative Perspe (Journal of Law and Society Special Issues)

Publisher: —
Description: The legitimacy and value of affirmative action policies remain controversial and contested. The essays in this collection examine the case for affirmative action in the UK in relation to employment, higher education, the legal profession, the judiciary, political representation and minority language rights. They draw upon experience of the uses of and justifications for affirmative action in the United States, Canada and Germany.The themes explored in the collection relate, firstly, to the way in which affirmative action is conceptualised and how this affects its perceived justifiability. Secondly, the essays highlight the importance of context in evaluating the case for affirmative action. Thirdly, the collection emphasises the need for pragmatic judgments about the likely effectiveness and costs of such policies in the different circumstances in which they are employed. [detailed...]

Debating American Modernism: Stieglitz, Duchamp, and the New York Avant-Garde

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionWhen Duchamp moved from Paris to New York in 1915, he was disappointed by the predominantly nature-based abstraction he observed, publicly proclaiming that American artists were too dependent on outmoded European traditions and had overlooked their greatest subjects--the skyscraper and the machine. Meanwhile, the artists associated with Alfred Stieglitz and his `291` gallery remained loyal to their belief in nature as a source of ongoing renewal for visual culture, and emphasized the crucial role that intuition and spirituality played in their creation of art. The crossfire between Duchamp and Stieglitz and their respective circles defined a critical moment in early twentieth-century American art. Debating Modernism includes reproductions of work by artists from both camps, from Charles Demuth, Georgia O`Keeffe, and Paul Strand to Man Ray, Francis Picabia, and Marsden Hartley. An essay by curator Debra Bricker Balken traces the threads of the debate through the… [detailed...]

Debating Institutionalism

2009 y.
Publisher: Manchester University Press
Description: Institutionalism has become one of the dominant strands of theory within contemporary political science. Beginning with the challenge to behavioral and rational choice theory issued by March and Olsen, institutional analysis has developed into an important alternative to more individualistic approaches to theory and analysis. This body of theory has developed in a number of ways, and perhaps the most commonly applied version in political science is historical institutionalism that stresses the importance of path dependency in shaping institutional behaviour. The fundamental question addressed in this book is whether institutionalism is useful for the various sub-disciplines within political science to which it has been applied, and to what extent the assumptions inherent to institutional analysis can be useful for understanding the range of behavior of individuals and structures in the public sector. The volume will also examine the relative utility of different forms of… [detailed...]

Description: `Debating Rationality is a terrific collection of essays written by an obviously first rate set of scholars. Several recent books have attempted to make similar points, but this volume pushes the ideas in new directions, rather than simply restating whatare now established themes.`--Roderick M. Kramer, co-author of Trust in Organizations Decision makers strive to be rational. Traditionally, rational decisions maximize an appropriate return. The contributors to this book challenge the common assumption that good decisions must be rational in this economic sense. They emphasize that the decision-making process is influenced by social, organizational, and psychological considerations as well as by economic concerns. Relationships, time pressure, external demands for specific types of performance, contractual expectations, human biases, and reactions to unfair treatment alter the decision-making context and the resulting decision outcomes.

Debbie Fleming Caffery: The Spirit and the Flesh

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Beginning in the mid-1990s, Louisiana-born photographer Debbie Fleming Caffery lived and worked on the grounds of the Catholic church in a small village in northeastern Mexico using a tortilla shack as her studio. In addition to the religious life of the town, she turned her lens on the nearby cantina that occasionally served as a brothel. The Spirit and the Flesh explores the themes of grace, redemption, sin and forgiveness that Caffery encountered in this community--of which she has said, `I felt incredibly comfortable in a culture rich in celebrations of religious feasts, with strong, independent, highly emotional people, much like the people I grew up with in southwest Louisiana. The brothel brought new elements into my work: secrets, sensual needs, desire and, often, unexpected love.` Debbie Fleming Caffery has been making photographs of the people and culture of her native Louisiana for more than 30 years, this is her fourth book.

Approximately three hundred questions were answered by the sole survivor of a technologically advanced flying craft that collided with a Soviet Nuclear Icebreaker. Six sober-minded officers, a secretary and the captain of the icebreaker participated in the debriefing of a visitor from an uncharted planet in our own solar system. During this debriefing the crew of the disabled Soviet Icebreaker was ordered to salvage the wreckage of the alien craft in anticipation that the sole surviving pilot would assist in the understanding and reconstruction of this advanced piece of technology. Such an achievement, if realized to fruition,… [detailed...]

Description: This book explains the significant variation that has emerged over time and across cases in international debt rescheduling during the past one hundred and seventy years. Based on a novel situational theory of bargaining, Professor Aggarwal`s study provides a method to deduce actors` payoffs in different bargaining situations to develop `debt games,` which are then used to predict negotiating outcomes. This integrated political-economic approach to analyze bargaining episodes goes beyond simple economic models or purely descriptive studies. In doing so, it contributes to international political and economic theory, game theory, and historical research on debt negotiations. [detailed...]
