Steve Pink directs this romantic comedy, based on David Marmet's
play 'Sexual Perversity in Chicago', starring Kevin Hart, Michael
Ealy, Regina Hall and Joy Bryant. Bernie Jackson (Hart) and his
friend Danny Martin (Ealy) consider themselves successful
womanisers. However, when they become involved with two roommates,
Joan Derrickson (Hall) and Debbie Sullivan (Bryant), Bernie and
Danny find that life becomes a lot more complicated. The two
couples go through numerous ups and downs, with the difficulties
and successes of each relationship having a knock-on effect on the
other. Can romance and friendship survive such close proximity?
A coming-of-age travel memoir that probes thorny spiritual
questions while taking the reader on a wild ride from the deep
American South to the Middle East, Europe, and the Far East. Once
the golden girl of her Arkansas town, Natalie finds herself
squeezed under small town shame and rejection after being kicked
out of church for getting a divorce. It's a hard fall off of a
sanctimonious high horse, and religious fundamentalism has left her
feeling broken and stuck. But she can't shake the 'wanderlust woes'
that have plagued her since childhood, so she runs away to the
Middle East. As a mostly-sheltered Southerner, she struggles to
adapt but is determined to be 'at home' in the world. Her journey
is more than a pilgrimage, it's a peregrination: a one-way ticket
to elsewhere in search of the place of her own resurrection. Within
these pages is a suspenseful adventure filled with love, loss,
laughter, tears, and a little bit of scandalous behavior, but at
the heart of it, Natalie walks squarely into the unknown to
confront the secret matters of the soul that we wrestle with at
night.

From Scott Aukerman and the comedic geniuses who created the Comedy
Bang! Bang! podcast comes a book that brings the chaotic,
hilarious, outrageous characters of the pod to the page In Comedy
Bang! Bang!: The Podcast, Scott Aukerman transports readers inside
the zany world of the Comedy Bang! Bang! podcast. The book features
brand-new anecdotes and opinions from the wild cast of recurring
characters, and matches the show in tone and wackiness, with
essays, lists, plays, nods to running bits, and four-color
illustrations throughout, helping to bring the zany, satirical,
undefinable world of Comedy Bang! Bang! to the page. The book is
curated by Aukerman and includes introductions by comedy legend
Patton Oswalt, Broadway phenom Lin-Manuel Miranda, and singer
“Weird Al†Yancovik. It also features pieces from Bobby
Moynihan, Andy Daly, Paul Brittain, Ego Nwodim, and many more, all
reprising roles of characters they’ve created for the podcast,
taking readers even deeper inside the lives of these off-the-wall
personalities.
Prepare yourself for a journey through the world of Patton Oswalt,
one of the most creative, insightful, and hysterical voices on the
entertain-ment scene today. Widely known for his roles in the films
"Big Fan "and "Ratatouille, "as well as the television hit "The
King of Queens, "Patton Oswalt--a staple of Comedy Central--has
been amusing audiences for decades. Now, with "Zombie Spaceship
Wasteland, "he offers a fascinating look into his most unusual, and
lovable, mindscape.
Oswalt combines memoir with uproarious humor, from snow forts to
Dungeons & Dragons to gifts from Grandma that had to be
explained. He remem-bers his teen summers spent working in a movie
Cineplex and his early years doing stand-up. Readers are also
treated to several graphic elements, includ-ing a vampire tale for
the rest of us and some greeting cards with a special touch. Then
there's the book's centerpiece, which posits that before all young
creative minds have anything to write about, they will home in on
one of three story lines: zom-bies, spaceships, or wastelands.
Oswalt chose wastelands, and ever since he has been mining our
society's wasteland for perversion and excess, pop culture and
fatty foods, indie rock and single-malt scotch. "Zombie Spaceship
Wasteland "is an inventive account of the evolution of Patton
Oswalt's wildly insightful worldview, sure to indulge his legion of
fans and lure many new admirers to his very entertaining
"wasteland."
We think of precision warfare as a modern invention, closely
associated with the Gulf War, the Kosovo Campaign and drone
technologies. But its origins go back much further in history. As
war historian James Patton Rogers reveals, this quest to achieve
precision in war began in 1917, during the early years of powered
flight in the United States. This means that precision has been a
significant, if not always achievable, feature of American
strategic thought for more than a hundred years. Patton Rogers
takes readers on a journey through the twentieth century,
highlighting the innovative thinkers of the First World War, the
experimental technologies of the Second World War and the
surprising Cold War nuclear strategies that made precision the
dominant feature it is today. From Russia’s offensive war in
Ukraine to Libya, Ethiopia and Nagorno-Karabakh, the conflicts of
the twenty-first-century are being fought with precision weapons.
Patton Rogers answers two enduring questions: why has precision
been such a defining feature of US military thinking? And how has
this ambition shaped public and military perceptions of war today?

The 10th anniversary edition of the classic guide to handling
life's toughest conversations What is a difficult conversation?
Asking for a pay rise, saying 'no' to your boss or spouse,
confronting a friend, apologizing. We all have conversations that
we dread and find unpleasant. But can we develop the skills to make
such situations less stressful and more productive? Based on
fifteen years of research and consultations with thousands of
people, Difficult Conversations pinpoints what works. It teaches us
to work through them by understanding that we're not engaging in
one dialogue but three: - The "what happened" conversation (what do
we believe was said and done) - The "feelings" conversation (the
emotional impact on everyone involved) - The "identity"
conversation (what does this mean for everyone's opinion of
themselves) Use this ground-breaking, step-by-step book to turn
your difficult conversations into positive, problem-solving
experiences.

Between 1995 and 1999, Patton Oswalt lived with an unshakable
addiction. It wasn't drugs, alcohol, or sex: it was film. After
moving to Los Angeles, Oswalt became a huge film buff (or as he
calls it, a sprocket fiend), absorbing classics, cult hits, and new
releases at the famous New Beverly Cinema. Silver screen celluloid
became Patton's life schoolbook, informing his notion of acting,
writing, comedy, and relationships. Set in the nascent days of LA's
alternative comedy scene, Silver Screen Fiendchronicles Oswalt's
journey from fledgling stand-up comedian to self-assured sitcom
actor, with the colorful New Beverly collective and a cast of
now-notable young comedians supporting him all along the way.
"Clever and readable...Oswalt's encyclopedic knowledge and frothing
enthusiasm for films (from sleek noir classics, to gory B movies,
to cliche-riddled independents, to big empty blockbusters) is
relentlessly present, whirring in the background like a projector"
(TheBoston Globe). More than a memoir, this is "a love song to the
silver screen" (Paste Magazine).
Rabbits are versatile animals, farmed for their meat and fur, as
laboratory animals, and also as pets. This well-established book
continues to provide an overview of domesticated rabbit production,
covering topics such as breeding, husbandry, feeding and health.
Now in its fully updated tenth edition, it includes an expanded
consideration of important issues such as animal welfare and
sustainable methods of production. With chapters relating
specifically to meat production, pet rabbits, rabbit shows, and
angora wool production, this new edition: - Includes new
information on the latest methods of artificial insemination,
estrous synchronization, embryo transfer, cloning and molecular
genetics; - Tackles globally prevalent health issues such as
enteritis complex (EC) rabbit enterocolitis (REC), and viral
hemorrhagic disease; - Reviews up-to-the-minute developments such
as the impact of the covid-19 pandemic on food production, as well
as new projects addressing poverty alleviation and food security.
Providing updates on worldwide production trends, figures and new
feed additive products, this book is an essential resource for
anyone involved in rabbit production - from novice to experienced
breeders, veterinarians and industry professionals.
