Описание: When you think about decorating, you probably envision big changes, big purchases, and big costs. Interior stylist Lili Diallo has two words for you: Start "small." She specializes in bringing homes alive through the details--a silvery pillow here, a floral screen there, and plenty of personality everywhere. Stylists typically transform spaces by working with pieces that are already present, and their goal is to translate the residents' stories and passions into their surroundings. "Details" teaches you how to find your very own design story by focusing on which colors, textures, and objects make you feel most at home. You'll also learn how to reimagine familiar objects and how to transform an area just by adding one key piece, such as a bright yellow rug that softens a room's midcentury modern furniture. Inspiration streams through hundreds of stunning photos. Taking a cue from Dorothy Draper, one apartment dweller uses a classic color scheme as a starting point but adds her own original, personal touch to the space with sleek lamps and a metallic coffee table. In another home, a crystal cherry blossom chandelier and a coat of gray paint transform a small kitchen into a glamorous and soothing ice-storm scene. Glazed bowls and English country patterns set the tone in the Manhattan apartment of a die-hard gardener whose spacious terrace is a floral wonderland in the warmer months. Glimpses into the residences of fashion tastemakers and interior designers reveal how to blend finds from IKEA, eBay, flea markets, and high-end antiques stores for effortlessly quirky character. Above all, within these pages you will discover how to edit your beloved belongings and arrange a room so there's just charm, no clutter. Equally enjoyable to read as it is to look through, "Details" is infused with Lili's joie de vivre and encouragement. With hundreds of design secrets on everything from salon-style art hangings to adding the final dash of style with flowers, "Details" will teach you how to tap into your own inner stylist.
Pro basketball player Rasheed Wallace often exclaimed the pragmatic truth “Ball don’t lie!” during a game. It is a protest against a referee’s bad calls. But the slogan, which originated in pickup games, brings the reality of a racialized urban playground into mainstream American popular culture.
In Ball Don’t Lie!, Yago Colás traces the various forms of power at work in the intersections between basketball and language from the game’s invention to the present day. He critiques existing popular myths concerning the history of basketball, contextualizes them, and presents an alternative history of the sport inspired by innovations. Colás emphasizes the creative prerogative of players and the ways in which their innovations shape—and are shaped by—broader cultural and social phenomena.
Ball Don't Lie! shows that basketball cannot be reduced to a single, fixed or timeless essence but instead is a continually evolving exhibition of physical culture that flexibly adapts to and sparks changes in American society.

Описание: The Tao of 52 is one of the first books of its kind to give the history and philosophy of the Afrikan-Amerikan combat system 52 Blocks. 52 Blocks is the combat system that was developed during slavery, mastered in prison and perfected on the streets. The Tao of 52 gives the reader a complete insight into the history and mystery of 52. For many years there has been talks, whispers and sighting of 52 Blocks. This book gives the reader a simple, direct and dynamic look into the lost science of 52. The Tao of 52 is a salute to the champions of 52 past and present, from Dennis Newsome who taught Mel Gibson 52 for the first Lethal Weapon, Big K who championed 52 in the book "Street Kingdom", Daniel Marks and the Constellations movement and Larenz Tate using 52 in the movie Gun Hill. This book was written to give 52 Blocks a recorded history, philosophy and code of conduct so it may be excepted as a credible martial arts system created by Afrikan-Amerikans
