Book excerpt: Florence Knoll (1917–2019) was a leading force of modern design. She worked from 1945 to 1965 at Knoll Associates, first as business partner with her husband Hans Knoll, later as president after his death, and, finally, as design director. Her commissions became hallmarks of the modern era, including the Barcelona Chair by Mies van der Rohe, the Diamond Chair by Harry Bertoia, and the Platner Collection by Warren Platner. She created classics like the Parallel Bar Collection, still in production today. Knoll invented the visual language of the modern office through her groundbreaking interiors and the creation of the acclaimed "Knoll look," which remains a standard for interior design today. She reinvigorated the International Style through humanizing textiles, lighting, and accessories. Although Knoll's motto was "no compromise, ever," as a woman in a white, upper-middle-class, male-dominated environment, she often had to make accommodations to gain respect from her colleagues, clients, and collaborators. No Compromise looks at Knoll's extraordinary career in close-up, from her student days to her professional accomplishments.

Book No Compromise

Download or read book No Compromise written by Melody Green and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2008-11-09 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 25th Anniversary Edition of Keith Green's inspiring biography, revised and updated by his wife, Melody. This expanded biography contains many added stories and insights, never before published photos, extra selections from Keith's private journals, and glimpses into Melody's season of grieving and raising their two surviving children on her own. He was only twenty-eight when he died in a plane crash with two of his small children, but singer/songwriter Keith Green had already created a legacy of music and inspiration that would outlive him. A spiritual revolutionary, he found freedom through Jesus, not religion, and spent his last years convincing others to refuse to accept the status quo and instead to bring compassion and honesty back to the church. He touched people through vibrant lyrics in songs like "Your Love Broke Through," "You Put This Love In My Heart," and "Asleep In The Light." Last Days Ministries, which he and his wife Melody founded, went on to challenge thousands of people to take to the mission fields of the world. Now, on the 25th anniversary of his death, Melody has updated her husband's biography with new photos, essays from current musicians who were influenced by Keith, selections from Keith's private journal, and stories about what it was like raising their two remaining children on her own.

Book Without Compromise

Book excerpt: A collection of groundbreaking investigations by Wayne Barrett, the intrepid, muckraking Village Voice journalist who exposed corruption in New York City and beyond. With piercing moral clarity and exacting rigor, Wayne Barrett tracked political corruption in the pages of the Village Voice fact by fact, document by document for 40 years. The first to report on the scams and crooked deals that fueled the rise of Donald Trump in 1979, Barrett went on to expose the shady dealings of small-time slum lords and powerful New York City politicians alike, from Ed Koch to Rudy Giuliani to Michael Bloomberg. Without Compromise is the first anthology of Barrett's investigative work, accompanied by essays from colleagues and those he trained. In an age of lies, fog, and propaganda, when the profession of journalism is degraded by the White House and the industry is under financial threat, Barrett reminds us that facts, when clearly accumulated, are our best defense of democracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Loving, Biblical Answers on Homosexuality In the next year at least one of these things will happen in your life: • A family member will come out of the closet and expect you to be okay with it. • Your elementary-age child's curriculum will discuss LGBT families. • Your company will talk about building a tolerant workplace for LGBT co-workers. • Your college-age child will tell you your view on homosexuality is bigoted. Are you ready? In their role as pastors, Adam Barr and Ron Citlau have seen how this issue can tear apart families, friendships, and even churches. In this book they combine biblical answers with practical, real-world advice on how to think about and discuss this issue with those you care about.

Download or read book Reunion Without Compromise written by Michael Perman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1973-07-27 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of the political leadership of the Southern States during the decisive three years immediately after the American Civil War. This was the crucial moment when the terms and shape of the post-war sectional settlement were being deliberated and determined and its outcome depended on the policy pursued by the Federal government towards the leaders of the Confederacy as well as on the Southerners' response to whatever course was adopted. Consequently, the Southern politicians were at the centre of the whole problem of reunion. It is very surprising, therefore, that until this study there has been virtually no analysis by historians of the goals, strategies and priorities of the Confederates. Yet without this, the struggle over Southern readmission cannot properly be understood.

Book No Compromise

Download or read book No Compromise written by Ken Sheridan and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you believe workplace safety is too expensive, begins and ends with adherence to OSHA standards, and inhibits production and profit margins? Do you desire to advance in your trade, better understand your organization’s business goals, and learn how to prove yourself a valuable team member? Ken Sheridan’s 40 plus years in the construction, utility, and distribution industries taught him several important lessons: everyone should end their workday fully intact; safety is the smartest business plan when it exceeds personal protection equipment; and employees who embrace a safety-focused culture are impactful leaders, creative problem solvers, and valuable business stewards. No Compromise lays out a clear path for a cultural approach to business success through safety. Such a culture shift is woven into human resources and supply departments; establishes a career path for apprentices; and creates support for stakeholders, employees, communities, and business partners. Book Review 1: "Ken Sheridan is a credible, innovative, and motivating force in workplace safety. During his long career, he witnessed the early days of personal protective equipment implementation and led the culture change from safety equipment to safe work policies to the normalization of safety as a core value and operating principle. His book provides guidance to companies on what it takes to establish and sustain a culture that is far more supportive of safety as an organizational value and, if achieved, can transform overall business performance." -- David Libby, Partner, Krause Bell Group Book Review 2: "If you are responsible for the safety of others, have any influence over others safety, or simply desire to acquire a more robust set of tools around your personal safety, Ken Sheridan’s “No Compromise” is a must read. Throughout his book, “Ken skillfully and artfully shares his unique professional and personal experiences and relates them to key elements of safety ownership, accountability, engagement, leadership, and influence. Undoubtedly, those who read it will come back to it often as they navigate their personal safety journeys." -- John K. Wolfe Vice President |Electric Distribution Operations | LG&E and KU Energy LLC Book Review 3: "This book is as genuine as the man who wrote it. It gives you the key elements you need to improve safety performance within your organisation. No snake oil, no flim flam, just honest and straightforward advice for leaders and safety professionals who want to make the change and make it stick." -- Andy Murdy CMIOSH Founder, Explorator Consulting Limited

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 5/5 No Compromise is an African centered perspective on solving the x factor in the human equation: 3/5 slave + x = 5/5 whole human beings, for Black Americans, specifically, and Black people world wide in general. The book written by Jeff Weaver, is inspired and driven by the divine wisdom of Almighty God, the African Forces (Lwa, Orisa, Obosum) / Holy Spirit and the ancestors. The premise of 5/5 No Compromise is to establish the fact that: 1) The United States Constitution codified the value of Black lives, in Article I. Section 2, Chapter 3 (more popularly known as the "3/5 Clause") as "3/5 of a person." A codification which has never been, expressly, amended or eradicated; and 2) in order for Black victims of the trans Atlantic slave trade, white supremacy and colonialism to establish their genuine human status they must embrace their own traditions, customs and culture, in an autonomous mutual respect based co-existence with their former slave masters and governors. Furthermore, in order to connect the various "splinters" of Black sub-cultures that exist in the US and globally, there must be an establishment of the one cultural thread that exist in common with the genetic heredity of the people in question. For Black Americans and Black people, worldwide, that common cultural thread is the drum pulse which originated in Africa. It is the one cultural element that is powerful and consistent, wherever Black people are heavily populated in the world. The author, Jeff Weaver calls that thread, "drum centered culture" and has identified it as the key element in sowing together the global cultural fabric that will restore Black people to a 5/5 autonomous culture of thriving human beings, with lives that matter.

  • Publisher : Christian Art Publishers
  • Release : 2012-10-26
  • ISBN : 1432105817
  • Pages : 302 pages

Download or read book No Compromise eBook written by Errol Naidoo and published by Christian Art Publishers. This book was released on 2012-10-26 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It often happens that people compromise their faith to suit their lifestyle. Their black and white sense of right and wrong gets trapped in a gray area. In NO COMPROMISE, founder and president of Family Policy Institute (FPI), Errol Naidoo, maintains that the major reason for the moral decline in the world today is the lack of conviction and commitment of Christians to be salt and light in society. Even though prayer is the foundation of everything a Christian does, NO COMPROMISE states that Christians shouldn’t “just pray” and not engage in politics and social issues. Naidoo spurs readers on not only to be people of prayer, but also people of action. They should adjust their lifestyle according to their faith, no compromise!
