Havana Style

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: It is one of the world`s most successful stage shows - running now for decades, evening after evening, at the same venue, but each day with different actors and dialogues: Sunset on the Malecon. The moment the promenade between the city and the Atlantic becomes immersed in a golden light, the kissing, dancing, drinking and celebrating starts along the quay wall. As if the life of the city were being presented in concentrated form -for a couple of hours at least, the Malecon becomes Havana`s heart and soul. And like no other place in Cuba, Havana satisfies that craving. With streets, bars, squares in which life simply throbs - and with apartments which are not so much places of private retreat as public meeting points. In their homes in Havana people gather together their favourite people and their favourite things - whether they match one another or not. Chests of drawers from the colonial era stand next to sideboards from the 1950s, ancient rocking chairs loll beside wobbly plastic… [detailed...]

David Bailey
Havana

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Photographer David Bailey has said, self-deprecatingly, that Havana `is just a superficial look, not a soul-searching investigation, a quick impression of a place that is unique in its geographical position.` But he reveals the importance of that quick impression and the depth of his understanding when he describes Havana`s `unique position`--with surreal accuracy--as `much closer to the United States of America than the space station is.` Both are places ordinary Americans cannot visit. To be one of the poorest nations on Earth, almost within spitting distance of the richest makes the poverty of Cuba seem more extreme. Two countries with extreme ideologies, the small one proving that Communism does not work, the other proving that democratic paranoia does work if the power and the money are in place. Havana makes use of Bailey`s mastery of the full range of the medium`s many genres, from vibrant street reportage to crystalline portraiture. This is Havana as an icon of… [detailed...]

The self-appointed crier, Joss Le Guern, reads out the daily news, snippets of gossip, and lately, ominous messages -- placed in his handmade wooden messae box by an anonymous source -- that warn of an imminent onset of the bubonic plague. Concerned, Le Guern brings the puzzling notes to the bumbling but brilliant Chief Inspector Jean-Baptiste Adamsberg and his straight-edged, right-hand man, Adrien Dangard. When strange signs that were historically believed to ward off the black death start to appear on the doors of several buildings, Adamsberg takes notice and suspects a connection with Le Guern`s warnings. After a flea-bitten corpse with plague-like smptoms is found in one of the marked buildings, Fred Vargas`s inimitable genius chief inspector is under pressure to solve the mystery and restore calm to a panicked Paris. But is it a real case of the bubonic scourge, or just a… [detailed...]

Description: Mountains have been symbolic since the beginning of time. Our imagination has always given life to their presence. We name them, even feature them in our history and our lives. John Maling has created a poem about and around the life of a mountain that touches the very life that bursts from its core to the inhabitants and majestic surroundings. Each line resonates with the spectacular photography taken by Grant Collier and John Maling. 32 inspiring and thoughtful lines enable the reader to climb with the author and photographers from the opening of the poem … Have you ever held a mountain Cupped it gently in your hand Felt the texture of its ridges Sifted slow its granite sand Brushed its trees and touched its meadows Heard its glaciers grinding down Felt wet and rocky muscle Under flesh of green and brown? … to the closing. And then, the reader will immediately start from the beginning, savoring the words and photos once again. [detailed...]

Have a Nice Doomsday: Why Millions of Americans Are Looking Forward to the End of the World

2007 y.
Publisher: Harper Perennial
Description: In `Have a Nice Doomsday`, Nicholas Guyatt searches for the truth behind a startling statistic: 50 million Americans have come to believe that the apocalypse will take place in their lifetime. They`re convinced that, any day now, Jesus will snatch up his followers and spirit them to heaven. The rest of us will be left behind to endure massive earthquakes, devastating wars, and the terrifying rise of the Antichrist. But true believers aren`t sitting around waiting for the Rapture. They`re getting involved in debates over abortion, gay rights, and even foreign policy. Are they devout or deranged? Does their influence stretch beyond America`s religious heartland-perhaps even to the White House? Journeying from Texas megachurches to the southern California deserts-and stopping off for a chat with prophecy superstar Tim LaHaye-Guyatt looks for answers to some burning questions: When will Russia attack Israel and ignite the Tribulation?

Supported by data from five years of survey and case study research, telecommunications adoption and use is explored in nine sectors of the rural community to determine the influence these organizations and institutions have on telecommunications development within the broader rural community. These sectors include local government, economic development, business, newspapers, library services, health care, university extension to communities, and farming. Also considered are the factors that promote and retard telecommunications development, particularly the impact of telecommunications policy, the availability of state-of-the-art infrastructure and service, and the involvement of telephone companies in local community development.

Lawrence Weiner, Gregor Stemmrich
Having Been Said: Writings &, Interviews of Lawrence Weiner, 1968-2003

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Lawrence Weiner`s art uses language in reference to materials. Language itself is a material and at the same time a means of presentation of his work. Weiner evolved this approach in the context of the Conceptual art of the late 60s, yet he does not see his own work as `conceptual.` The `space` he works within is the entire cultural context, and his works are associated with various different media and forms of presentation: books, posters, videos, films, records, drawings, multiples, installations indoors and outdoors, and more. Since his earliest days as a professional artist, Weiner has given written and verbal expression to questions concerning his work and its context. These utterances--statements, interviews, lectures, and conference contributions--have been collected together in this publication for the first time, and ordered chronologically. Taken as a whole they afford an insight both into a complex individual biography and into the wider development of art and culture and… [detailed...]
