  Something’s wrong with this airplane. What’s happening to me…? 
  I’ve always been targeted by bullies, but I’m finally starting to understand why. They can see through me. They can smell weakness. 
  I own the airline, but my newest flight attendants are giving me an education in employee management. They’ve made me commit unspeakable acts in the onboard restroom. They’ve made me wear a skirt and serve them drinks. 
  But now that I’m naked and bound in the cockpit, I finally understand my place. 
  I work for them now. 
  Pleasure is my salary. Pain is my bonus.

  Wyndham Lewis and British Art...

  Thomas Keller

  • 0

  This study connects the idiosyncratic modernism of Wyndham Lewis, co-founder of the Vorticist art movement, with works of several artists from the British art rock tradition, among them Bryan Ferry, David Bowie, art-punk pioneers Wire and electronic pop musician John Foxx. By taking a transdisciplinary and intermedial approach to texts from two fields normally studied in isolation and staking out the elements of a shared modernist ethos, the book presents a new perspective on both fields relevant to scholars of literature, popular culture, and the visual arts alike. While the book rests on sound research from the fields of literary criticism, art history, and pop theory, the structure and writing of the book is fundamentally designed to be accessible and comprehensible to non-scholarly readers.

  Picking Presidents - How to Make...

  Celebrated leadership expert and political scientist Gautam Mukunda provides a comprehensive, objective, and non-partisan method for answering the most important question in the world: is someone up to the job of president of the United States? 
   
   
    
  In Picking Presidents, Gautam Mukunda sets his sights on presidential candidates, proposing a tested method to assess whether they will succeed or fail if they win the White House. Combining political science, psychology, organizational behavior, and economics, Picking Presidents will enable every American to cast an informed vote. 
   
   
    
  In his 2012 book Indispensable, which all but predicted the Trump presidency, Mukunda explained how both the very best and very worst leaders are "unfiltered"—outsiders who take power without the understanding or support of traditional elites. Picking Presidents provides deep analysis of filtered and unfiltered presidents alike, from failed haberdasher and skillful president Harry Truman, to the exceptionally well-qualified—and ultimately reviled—James Buchanan; from Andrew Johnson, who set civil rights back by a century, to Theodore Roosevelt, who evaded party opposition to transform American society. Picking Presidents lays out a clear framework that anyone can use to judge a candidate and answer the all-important question: are they up to the job?

  The Indianapolis - The Worst...

  The USS Indianapolis was a Portland-class heavy cruiser of the United States Navy, commissioned in 1932, and it played a vital role in the Pacific theater during World War II. Its most significant and tragic moment came in 1945, during its final mission. The ship was tasked with delivering critical components for the atomic bomb that would later be dropped on Hiroshima, Japan. This mission, which involved transporting the bomb's uranium core to the island of Tinian, was classified, and few knew about the importance of the cargo aboard the ship. 
  After successfully completing its mission and delivering the components to Tinian on July 26, 1945, the Indianapolis set sail for the Philippines, where it would rendezvous with other ships in the Pacific fleet. The ship’s captain, Charles B. McVay III, had orders to take the cruiser directly to its next destination, avoiding the traditional convoy routes to reduce the risk of submarine attack. With the war nearing its end and Japan’s defeat imminent, the ship's journey seemed routine, and there was little concern about the potential dangers ahead. The USS Indianapolis was an experienced and battle-tested ship, having served in key naval engagements throughout the war, including the Battle of Leyte Gulf and the Battle of the Philippine Sea. 
  However, the absence of a convoy left the Indianapolis vulnerable. On the night of July 29, 1945, while traveling through the Philippine Sea, the ship was struck by two torpedoes fired by the Japanese submarine I-58. The attack tore through the hull, causing devastating damage. Within minutes, the ship began to sink, and the crew was thrown into chaos. Many of the crew members perished instantly, while others scrambled into the water, trying to escape the fiery wreckage of the ship. The survivors faced an unimaginable nightmare as they found themselves stranded in the open ocean, with little hope of immediate rescue.
