Award-winning playwright, screenwriter, and director David Mamet shares scandalous and laugh-out-loud tales from his four decades in Hollywood where he…
worked with some of the biggest names in movies. David Mamet went to Hollywood on top—a super successful playwright summoned west in 1980 to write a vehicle for Jack Nicholson. He arrived just in time to meet the luminaries of old Hollywood and revel in the friendship of giants like Paul Newman, Mike Nichols, Bob Evans, and Sue Mengers. Over the next forty years, Mamet wrote dozens of scripts, was fired off dozens of movies, and directed eleven himself. In Everywhere an Oink Oink , he revels of the taut and gag-filled professionalism of the film set. He depicts the ever-fickle studios and producers who piece by piece eat the artist alive. And he ponders the art of filmmaking and the genius of those who made our finest movies. With the bravado and flair of Mamet's best theatrical work, this memoir describes a world gone by, some of our most beloved film stars with their hair down, and how it all got washed away by digital media and the woke brigade. The book is illustrated throughout with three-dozen of Mamet's pungent cartoons and caricaturesLe principe de Peter, ou, Pourquoi tout va toujours mal (Aux marches de la science #Vol. 6024012)

Par Cecil Rosner. 2023
Journalists hate the term fake news, but there's a troubling reality: spin doctors routinely try to dupe them into reporting…
misleading and distorted stories. Check the news on any given day and here's what you'll find: Governments routinely lie. Companies inflate claims about their products and practices. Institutions release studies with misleading data meant to deceive. Police departments, infected by systemic racism, downplay crimes against Indigenous and racialized people. The public depends on the media to help them understand the world, but are journalists catching all the daily lies, omissions, and distortions? Shrinking newsrooms and an army of spin doctors mean journalists can get duped. Despite valiant efforts by a handful of investigative journalists, the truth is routinely left behind. Award-winning journalist Cecil Rosner insists there is something we can do about this. We can pressure news organizations to stop blindly regurgitating the firehose of press releases and focus instead on determining what is actually true. Rosner empowers listeners by sharing his techniques for detecting misinformation and disinformationCes dates de naissance qui parlent

situait dans notre capacité d'affronter notre souffrance ! Et, si finalement, la clé d'une vie plus heureuse puisait sa source dans les émotions que l'on tente justement d'éviter... Le chagrin, la peur et le désespoir sont parmi les émotions que l'être humain trouve les plus difficiles à vivre -en même temps, s'il les ignore, comme il a tendance à le faire, cela peut entraîner de graves conséquences. La société actuelle, nous pousse plutôt à essayer d'oublier notre passé, à garder sous silence nos peurs et à passer par-dessus notre peine. Pourtant, en faisant face à notre douleur émotionnelle, en prenant le temps de l'écouter et de la laisser circuler librement, elle nous guide vers sa transformation et, ultimement, sa guérison. Dans ce livre d'un remarquable profondeur, Miriam Greenspan nous amène avec douceur et sagesse au-delà de cette détresse pour découvrir, de l'autre côté de cette expérience, la gratitude, la joie et une foi renouvelée"L'Enfant médium c'est d'abord l'histoire d'un voyage : celui qui a mené un jeune paysan marocain jusqu'aux coulisses de l'Élysée.…
Avant de devenir Neil Terence, voyant des grands de ce monde, Neil s'est appelé Mohammed, gamin d'Aïtourir, un village perdu à quelques heures de Marrakech. À cinq ans, en courant sur les chemins de son village, Mohammed a été victime d'un accident qui l'a plongé dans un coma d'un an et demi. Brisé, isolé au sein de sa communauté, il a trouvé refuge auprès de Lalla Fatima, une tante magicienne. Initié à un univers qui évoque de manière troublante les sortilèges de l'Antiquité, le jeune enfant a découvert qu'il avait lui aussi le Don. Don de prédire l'avenir, don de lire les cartes du sort, don de guérir par simple imposition des mains. Vivre avec un tel bagage rend solitaire, mais forge les grandes personnalités. Le chemin sera long et difficile, jusqu'au jour où les puissants viendront lui demander conseil." -- 4e de couvLa bible des anges: écrits inspirés par les Anges de la lumière] / 1
