Описание: A treasure trove of pin-up girl images from photographer Bunny Yeager, celebrated for her playfully erotic photos of Bettie Page that continue to influence photography and fashion today. The only woman pin-up photographer of her day, Bunny Yeager was also a model in her own right. After winning several beauty pageants in Miami, Yeager went to photography school, and in 1955, she hit the jackpot with her shot of Bettie Page scantily clad in a Santa hat, which sold instantly to the fledgling Playboy magazine. The beginning of a long collaboration, her photographs of Bettie have now been featured on more magazine covers than those of Marilyn Monroe. This glamorous volume gathers more than a hundred lens-fogging photographs embodying the naughty girl-next-door eroticism of pin-up culture. Culled from Yeager's extensive archive, the collection includes her most iconic shots of the legendary Bettie as well as many previously unpublished images. Yeager's pioneering self-portraits and excerpts from her charming 1960s how-to manuals are featured alongside dozens of wholesome beauties shot in the studio and on location. A fun and sexy book, it is sure to tap into the current burlesque trend and the popularity of glamour photography and vintage American culture.

Описание: 'The most important book about our economy and society to be published in my lifetime' Irvine WelshFrom Paul Mason, the award-winning Channel 4 presenter, Postcapitalism is a guide to our era of seismic economic change, and how we can build a more equal society. Over the past two centuries or so, capitalism has undergone continual change - economic cycles that lurch from boom to bust - and has always emerged transformed and strengthened. Surveying this turbulent history, Paul Mason wonders whether today we are on the brink of a change so big, so profound, that this time capitalism itself, the immensely complex system by which entire societies function, has reached its limits and is changing into something wholly new.

At the heart of this change is information technology: a revolution that, as Mason shows, has the potential to reshape utterly our familiar notions of work, production and value; and to destroy an economy based on markets and private ownership - in fact, he contends, it is already doing so. In this groundbreaking, Sunday Times top ten book, Mason shows how, from the ashes of the recent financial crisis, we have the chance to create a more socially just and sustainable global economy.

Описание: 11+ Vocabulary Cartoons
To improve your memory you must increase the number and variety of your mental associations. When you learn new words, make sure you learn them in a context.
It is far easier to remember a picture than an abstract concept.
So the trick to remember an abstract word, is to turn it into a picture.
And..... It is much easier to picture a sentence rather than picture a word in isolation.
When you create the picture, make sure it meets one or more of the following criteria so that it 'sticks'.
OUT OF PROPORTION - In all your images, try to distort size and shape. You can imagine things much larger than their normal size or conversely, microscopically small.
SUBSTITUTION - You could visualise footballers kicking a television around a football pitch instead of a football, or pens growing on a tree instead of leaves.
Substituting an out of place item in an image increases the probability of recall.
EXAGGERATION - Try to picture a very large quantity in your images.
MOVEMENT - Any movement or action is always easy to remember.
HUMOUR - The funnier, more absurd and zany you can make your images, the more memorable they will be.
Applying multiple combination of these five principles when forming your images will help make your mental associations truly outstanding and memorable.
At first, you may find that you need to consciously apply one or more of the five principles in order to make your pictures sufficiently ludicrous.
After a little practice however, you should find that applying the principles becomes an automatic and natural process.

-All the hard work done for you.
