The Internship (2013)
Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson star as two former salesmen who, never having
managed to come to grips with the digital age, are left high and
dry when their employer suddenly decides to call it a day. Staking
everything on one last throw of the dice, the pair, defying all the
odds, somehow manage to get themselves accepted onto a coveted
internship at tech giants Google. But will they be able to keep up
the facade once they take up their positions?
The Watch (2012)
Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill and Richard Ayoade star as a group of
friends who form a neighbourhood watch group. While Evan Trautwig, a newcomer to the suburban neighbourhood, may have a
legitimate reason for forming a crime watch group following the
recent murder of a friend, it is clear that for most of the men
ulterior motives are at work. Indeed, Bob Finnerty seems
to spend a lot more time examining the dating habits of his
daughter, Chelsea, than he does looking for
threats. However, when the men stumble across what appears to be an
alien plan to destroy humankind, they understand where their
responsibilities lie and set out to counter the threat.

Vera Farmiga. Single parents George (Garcia) and Edith (Farmiga)
meet when they accompany their children to an admissions tour of

Conrad (Spencer Lofranco), seems somewhat uptight, which initially
leads to a clash of personalities with carefree Edith and her
daughter Audrey (Taissa Farmiga). However, as the day progresses
and the pair get to know each other better, sparks begin to ignite.
But with the tour only set to last the day, will their connection
have a chance to develop?

An essential resource for managers at every level of any
organization A management book written by managers for front-line
managers, The Effective Manager, 2nd edition, is a concise,
practical, and incisive take on what to do and say to get the best
results possible from your co-located or remotely distributed team.
The book's concrete advice will improve your relationships with
your team members, increase your chances of being promoted, and
generate trust amongst those you lead. You'll learn why managing
remote teams is so much harder than managing one in a single
location and how to meet that challenge head-on. You'll also
discover how to introduce your ideas to your team, counter their
concerns and pushback, and ensure your instructions are followed.
In the place of vague bromides about being "impactful" or "candid,"
you'll get hands-on guidance on how to behave in the situations
that managers find themselves in on a daily basis. The authors also
offer: Data- and evidence-driven advice that's been proven to work
in the real world over the last 30 years Ground-level, real-world
tips on getting the best work out of your team without burning them
out Four critical manager behaviors that build success: Know your
people, talk about performance, ask for more, and push work down A
book for every manager at every level, The Effective Manager shows
you what you can do now, today, with your team members to improve
their performance, increase personnel retention, and get better
results.

This unique book explores what subregions are in a European context
and what roles they fulfil in relation to the European integration
process, exploring how subregional cooperation and integration in
Europe largely take place in the shadow of the European integration
process. Mats Braun examines how subregions fulfil two specific
functions in relation to the European integration process: they
compensate for the fact that countries are connected to the
European Union in different ways, and they facilitate cooperation
in fields where the EU has failed to do so. The book analyses two
of the European subregions in detail, the Nordics and the Visegrad,
and explores how these groups gain legitimacy. Braun suggests that
Nordic cooperation is based on perceptions of shared norms
relating, among other things, to peace, while the Visegrad Group
has become widely known only in the aftermath of the migration
crisis and is now developing a new narrative based on protecting
Europe. Elaborating on a theoretical framework based on
postfunctionalism, this book will be critical reading for scholars
and students of European politics and policy, international
relations and regional studies. Its focus on the two case studies
will also be beneficial for policy makers and analysts interested
in the politics of the Nordic and Visegrad countries.
