Book Never Use Futura

    Book Details:
  • Author : Douglas Thomas
  • Publisher : Chronicle Books
  • Release : 2017-10-31
  • ISBN : 1616896663
  • Pages : 209 pages

Download or read book Never Use Futura written by Douglas Thomas and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's everywhere, including the moon (on the commemorative plaque left by Apollo 11 astronauts), Nike sneakers, the artworks of Barbara Kruger, Ed Ruscha, and Jenny Holzer, 2001: A Space Odyssey credits, Domino's Pizza boxes, Absolut Vodka bottles, and Red Bull cans. Richard Nixon used it for his presidential campaign, as did Hillary Clinton. Indeed, Futura is one of the most used fonts in the world today—the typeface of modern design—more so even than Helvetica. This fascinating book explores the cultural history and uses of a face that's so common you might not notice, until you start looking, and then you can't escape it. Douglas Thomas traces Futura from its Bauhaus-inspired origin in Paul Renner's 1924 design, to its current role as the go-to choice for corporate work, logos, motion pictures, and advertisements. Never Use Futura is illuminating, sometimes playful, reading, not just for type nerds, but for anyone interested in how typefaces are used, take on meaning, and become a language of their own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Dressed To Kill, Rick explains with exacting detail the purpose and function of each piece of Roman armor. In the process, he describes the significance of our spiritual armor not only to withstand the onslaughts of the enemy and but also to overturn the tendencies of the carnal mind. Furthermore, Rick delivers a clear, scriptural presentation on the biblical definition of spiritual warfare what it is and what it is not. He stresses, Your unbroken, ongoing fellowship with God is your absolute guarantee that you are constantly and habitually dressed in the whole armor of God. When you walk with God in deliberate, continual fellowship, He will enrobe you with Himself. Armed with the knowledge of who you are in Him, you will be dressed and dangerous to the works of darkness, unflinching in the face of conflict, and fully equipped to take the offensive and gain mastery over any opposition from your spiritual foe. You don t have to accept defeat anymore once you are Dressed To Kill!

Book Vows of Silence

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jason Berry
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2004-03-04
  • ISBN : 0743253817
  • Pages : 369 pages

Download or read book Vows of Silence written by Jason Berry and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2004-03-04 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Going deep behind the headlines about scandals in the Catholic Church, Jason Berry and Gerald Renner follow the staggering trail of evasions and deceit that leads directly to the Vatican and taints the legacy of Pope John Paul II. Based on more than six years of investigative reporting and hundreds of interviews, Vows of Silence is a riveting account of Vatican cover-ups. Both a profound criticism and a wake-up call to reform by two Catholic writers, this book reveals an agenda of top-down control under John Paul II and a hierarchy so obsessed with secrecy as to spawn disinformation. Vows of Silence cuts between the life story of Father Tom Doyle, who sacrificed a diplomatic career with the Vatican to seek justice for sex-abuse victims, and Father Marcial Maciel, an accused pedophile and founder of the militaristic religious order, the Legion of Christ. Drawing on in-depth interviews with Father Doyle and with ex-Legionaries who filed a canonical suit against Maciel, as well as interviews with Vatican insiders and an array of sources in Mexico, Ireland, Canada, and Australia, Berry and Renner provide a penetrating account of a hierarchy directly in conflict with its followers. With keen insight and scrupulous reporting, Vows of Silence is a powerful narrative that chronicles the church's struggle between orthodoxy and reform—going straight to the heart of one of the world's largest power structures. It is not a book about sexual abuse; it is a book about abuse of power throughout the Vatican.

Book The Decadent Cookbook

Download or read book The Decadent Cookbook written by Alex Martin and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Decadent Cookbook is not another installment in the seemingly-serialized publication of prosaic cookbooks written by "celebrity chefs," but rather an accessible guide for people with an interest in history, a sense of humor, and a penchant for the unconventional. This is not the hundredth book on Provenal cuisine nor is it the seven hundredth book about Italian dining. Through their own irreverent narrative and selections from the works of others perhaps more wicked, Lucan & Gray take us along on a whirlwind journey -- steeped in myth, mystery, and misadventure -- through the culinary ages while reflecting on the gastronomical quirks, conceits, strange tastes and peculiar table-side manners of the periods' most outrageous figures. Sure the authors recommend blood, exotic meat (the aye-aye), strange herbs (samphire), and butter statues, but the real shock may be that these guys are serious. At times useful, at other times surreal, The Decadent Cookbook combines a scholarly temperament with a whimsical passion for the delicious: "Blood makes an excellent basis for a Decadent meal. Dark, heavy, rich and sinister, it combines beautifully with other Decadent themes: vice, corruption, incest and death." Definitely not your grandmother's cookbook. The Decadent Cookbook is a guide for the adventurous, the versatile, and frankly, the courageous. From the tables of ancient Rome (Stuffed Sow's Womb) to the kitchenettes of Victorian England (A Victorian Sausage) this cookbook is a testament to baroque living, and, if you can find "a heifer's udder" to go with your Andouillettes, practical dining.
