Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell7/6/2023 Gladwell uses the Beatles and Bill Gates as two examples of this phenomenon. Researchers concluded that 10,000 hours is the minimum amount necessary for reaching the top level in any field. The author presents a study of musicians that concluded total practice time from when someone began playing an instrument was the sole difference between elite players and the others. This advantage leads them to progress faster, which leads to moving up the ranks.Ĭhapter 2 introduces the idea of the “10,000-hour rule” as necessary to success. The key element in their success is an early birth date, ensuring that as children they will be that much more physically developed in their age class. Chapter 1 illustrates this by examining hockey stars in Canada. This goes against the commonly-held romantic notion of individual success through innate genius and hard work. His argument is that it takes many factors to create such a person, including family and cultural background as well as random circumstances. Gladwell presents his main theme in the Introduction: outliers, or people who fall outside of what is often considered typical due to their extraordinary success.

A farewell to arms original cover7/6/2023 On the contrary, there's been a frenzy of activity, most of it little noticed by Washington at large. And the Pentagon brass? They commissioned their old RAND think-tank friends, who combed through the Day After results and concluded, "The more time one spent on this subject, the more one saw tough problems lacking concrete solutions and, in some cases, lacking even good ideas about where to start."

Theater Geek by Mickey Rapkin7/6/2023 In other words, he is an ideal guide through the mystique, missteps and mischief at a theater-obsessed boot camp where, as Zach Braff's father used to say, "You don't need to bring a mitt. You see? As Second City has been to post-adolescent comedy, Stagedoor Manor has been a seedling ground for the future thespians of America.īut as Mickey Rapkin breezily recounts in "Theater Geek," the summer camp in the Catskills has also been an oasis, a hoot and an escape - "Oz, Neverland, Hogwarts" for any arts-loving youngster who, "for whatever reason, feels other than." Rapkin, a senior editor at GQ and self-described theater geek, lined the walls of his bedroom wall with Playbills in his childhood in Bellmore. Dussel in the attic in "The Diary of Anne Frank." The next year, campers watched Jennifer Jason Leigh limping through the cafeteria in preparation for her Laura in "The Glass Menagerie." Natalie Portman was Sally Bowles in a 1995 "Cabaret," and, in 2000, a teenager named Lea Michele had to leave camp early to do a workshop of a little show called "Spring Awakening." The temptation is to fill this entire space with lists of the famous alumni (or the unknown alumni with famous parents) from Stagedoor Manor, the theater summer camp in the Catskills.

Pretty reckless by lj shen7/6/2023 The author does not ease you into it, just air-drops you in the middle of it all. The author drew up such sad and disturbing households for our protagonists, it was heartbreaking and definitely difficult to digest.Daria does make having hais3x a big deal. Specifically, because a 14-year-old girl was kissing a stranger in an alley! Pardon me for being judgemental, but are all Americans just waiting to…you know…”do the deed?”. The beginning of the book irked me a little.Trigger warning: abuse, bullying, abandonment, fat-shaming, unprotected sex, rape, alcoholism, drug abuse (not by the protagonist), death, cheating (kind of?, not sure if it counts), illicit relationships, teenage-pregnancy.Penn hates Daria, but Daria loves the boy too hard to put on a fake show. Penn Scully doesn’t have a care in the world since his sister left him alone. In a gist: Daria Followhill is an insecure girl who pretends to be something she is not because she thinks she deserves to treat herself like that. Sneak Peek: Taboo, exciting but also so destructive

The many colored land by julian may7/6/2023 I still see people talk about the series, but not as many as there should be. It's a tale that took hold of me and had me reading the next five or six books in relatively swift order. It all gets complicated but the imagination is unbounded and the writing very good. There are various factions among the humans and the aliens, and the alien technology wakes psychic powers among the humans too. This is a time of woolly mammoths rather than dinosaurs, but the twist is that psychic aliens are there already and set to enslaving our exiles. They are a very eclectic bunch including a man who believes in Narnia and Aslan, a gay nun, a skilled thief who won't give up crime, all sorts. This, excellent, series is set mainly in the Pliocene era of Earth, where miscreants from our distant future are exiled via a time portal.īack in this past, several million years before our time, these futuristic exiles try to make a life for themselves with the hi-tech objects they are allowed to take with them. I think it was Julian May who gave me the taste for mixing fantasy and science fiction. The sad news has motivated to review this book, which I haven't read in 30 years. According to the publisher Angry Robot, Julian May has died, age 86.

Swann's way by marcel proust7/5/2023 What I found was a novel so preoccupied with the minutiae of experience that I had no choice but to reappraise my own. His novel cycle, In Search of Lost Time, also presents the attractive challenge of surmounting a massive text-multiple volumes, stretching between 3,000 and 4,000 pages, depending on the edition-and the subsequent entry into a rare and rather pretentious club of readers. Proust’s work has many qualities that might recommend it for pandemic reading: the author’s concern with the protean nature of time, the transportive exploration of memory and the past, or simply the pleasure of immersing oneself in the richly detailed life of another. My friend’s response shortly thereafter confirmed this: “It’s too early for me to follow this sentence.” Next to me, my 2-year-old daughter slowly guided a spoonful of oatmeal into her mouth, noticing my struggle. It was a photo of a page from Swann’s Way, and it took several attempts for me to capture the near-page-length sentence in its entirety. One morning a few weeks ago, I sent my friend a Proust text.

Hellsing manga how many volumes7/5/2023 I loved reading this in the original larger format and continue to be very impressed with the quality of these editions. This volume also includes the big reveal about what Alucard actually is. Basically this volume is all out war, and vast portions of London are destroyed. I am not going to talk a lot about the story much because if you are interested in the Deluxe edition you’ve probably read the original series already. Thoughts: This is probably the most violent part of this storyline and hence this is the most violent volume in the series. I got a copy of this as a gift for my birthday. Series Info/Source: This is the second volume in the Hellsing Deluxe graphic novel series. And with this murderous conflict at a fever pitch, the Vatican sees an opportunity to take down both Millennium and Hellsing in one swift stroke!Ĭollects Hellsing chapters 28-62 from Hellsing volumes 5-8.” “The Hellsing Organization is under siege by the undead Nazi army of the Millennium Project, who are turning the streets of London into rivers of blood and the citizenry into a legion of abominations.
