Publisher: —
Description: `As a slice of history, docudrama and how-to manual, Sizing Down is top-notch. Illes was human resources manager at the Signetics semiconductor plant in Orem, Utah, when, in January 1992, she was notified that the plant would close at the end of the year. It became her task to assist with orchestrating the phase-out of 900 jobs, including her own. . . . Throughout the inevitable juggling of interests, judgments had to be made, some good, some bad, says the author.

Horace Panter
Ska`d for Life: A Personal Journey with The Specials

2007 y.
Publisher: Trans-Atlantic Publications, Inc.
Description: As bass player with The Specials and in his second-hand suit and pork pie hat, Horace was a member of one of the most innovative and exciting bands to come snarling out of the punk era. Founded by Jerry Dammers, their fusion of punk, reggae, and ska created a new musical fashion spearheaded by their own Two Tone record label that stood for unity and racial harmony in a polarized society. This musical odyssey with The Specials moves from their early days on Coventry`s punk circuit, to their chart-storming success with singles like Too Much Too Young and the eerily prescient Ghost Town, released as the race riots of 1982 saw Toxteth and Brixton go up in flames. Written with wry humor, this affectionate look at a band whose sublime music remains influential today is a must for all fans of The Specials. [detailed...]

Skaldic Verse and the Poetics of Saga Narrative

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Skaldic Verse and the Poetics of Saga Narrative is a study of the varying relationships between verse and prose in a series of Old Norse-Icelandic saga narratives. It shows how the interplay of skaldic verse, with its metrical intricacy and cryptic diction, and saga prose, with its habitual spare clarity, can be used to achieve a wide variety of sophisticated stylistic and psychological effects. In sagas, there is a fundamental distinction between verses which are ostensibly quoted to corroborate what is stated in the narrative, and verses which are presented as the speech of characters in the saga. Corroborative verses are typical of-but not confined to-historical writings, the verses acting as a footnote to the narrative. Dialogue verses, with their illusion that saga characters break into verse at crucial points in the story, belong to the realm of fiction. This study, which focuses on historical writings such as Agrip and Heimskringla, and three of the major family sagas,… [detailed...]

Skating Engineers: Hockey at RPI

2005 y.
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
Description: Hockey at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) began on a frozen pond in Cohoes in 1902 and has twice reached the pinnacle of the collegiate game. Along the way, championship performances and awe-inspiring play have made hockey at RPI an institution. Starting with the nearly forgotten early years and continuing to the present, Skating Engineers: Hockey at RPI follows the course of the sport at Rensselaer, which emerged as a powerhouse a few short years after the program was resurrected following World War II. Highlights include the legendary coach Ned Harkness, who led an underdog team to the national title in 1954, the high-scoring early-1960s teams that returned to the national stage, the powerful mid-1980s squad that won the championship again, and the modern era, in which the women skate on the same historic field house ice as the men.

Sketch: Public Buildings: How Architects Conceive Public Architecture

2009 y.
Publisher: Loft Publications
Description: Public buildings are constructions designed to provide specific services to a population. They have a very important social, political and cultural value and their architecture should represent these values, too. In architecture, a sketch is considered to be a drawing that describes a diagram of a project to be built. What adds importance to architectural sketches is the relationship established between drawing and architecture. Architects use sketches as a tool for approaching their projects, to begin to give shape to the image they have in their heads. But whatever the material and support used, the aim is always to record the most significant features of each building. This volume not only demonstrates the importance of the sketch as a work of art and idea in itself, but also shows the creative process to the end result. The following pages explore the phase that begins with the sketch, goes on to include models and renderings and eventually reaches the final plans. … [detailed...]

The reality is that few survive, much less deliver on their promise. The folly? An absence of design, and an over-reliance on technology alone as the solution. We need design. But design as described here depends on different skillsetseach essential, but on their own, none sufficient. In this rich ecology, designers are faced with new challengeschallenges that build on, rather than replace, existing skills and practice.
