Graces: Prayers for Everyday Meals and Special Occasions Review

Saying grace at mealtime is a time-honored tradition for many families and a newfound source of spiritual connection for others. Whether you're a master at giving the blessing or fairly new to this sacred art, Graces will bring inspiration to your meals and special gatherings.

Seeing the need for such inspiration at her family's table, June Cotner compiled a notebook of poems, prayers, and songs that she solicited from friends, strangers, family members, and ministers. She has turned her family's well-worn notebook into this elegantly packaged edition, which will complement your finest table settings.

Arranged by thirteen themes, this beautiful gift book contains poems, prayers, songs, invocations, and salutations by figures as diverse as Leunig and Browning, Emerson and Starhawk, Kahlil Gibran and Schweitzer. Whether you need a Sanskirt Salutation to the Dawn, a Gaelic Blessings, or ancient Chinese Prayer, Graces offers fitting words for every occasion.

Having a collection of original, traditional, and multicultural blessings makes it easy to share wisdom and insight with family and friends before meals or at special gatherings. The graces compiled here have been used by people of all religions beliefs, and special attention was given to how easily the words can be spoken by both adults and children.

Life if full of occasions when it seems appropriate to say grace. Graces contains 133 prayers, poems, and blessings that span the centuries and draw from many traditions. Bring spiritual focus to your meals by bringing Graces to your table.

THE "FABU-LISHOUS" FACE

Ever fight back an overwhelming urge to taste a succulent cheek? How about those pinchable, dewy, round, rosies — deliciously edible faces that could do with just a little nibbling — clean, clear, crisp, luscious, radiant skin that sets your senses tingling. Well, ladies and gentlemen, dazzling, wrinkle-and-blemish-free-skin can be yours at any age.

With the proper care, blemishes can fade, wrinkles diminish (or downright disappear), muscles tone, and skin glow all over — all without commercial cosmetics, in fact, better without commercial cosmetics.

Why? Simply because of the ingredients. You know what you are getting. You know the fixin’s are fresh, potent and preservative free. Even the best natural cosmetics, contain preservatives and lose vitality sitting on the shelf, and a papaya fresh from the market will “clarify” your skin without acetone, the expensive department store exfoliant that also removes nail polish.
End the cosmetics confusion. Forget all the options: “Should I tissue off, rub or rinse, freshen, astringe or tone?” Ignore all the hype! Good skin care is very simple. Beautiful skin has existed for centuries. Ask Cleopatra and the ladies of the French court. Just Treat Your Face Like a Salad! Clean it. Crisp it. Mist it. Press it. Dress it with nutrient replenishing, skin tightening, blemish fading, wrinkle-erasing, acne clearing natural at-home recipes and gourmet hints for a fabu-lishous face.

1,000 Greetings: Creative Correspondence Designed for All Occasions

1,000 Greetings: Creative Correspondence Designed for All Occasions Review

New miniature version!

 

With designers constantly working for clients and having a limited amount of freedom in much of their work, the chance to strike out on their own and do something truly original and personal is a real luxury. The cards included represent some of the most creative design available so are a wonderful source of inspiration for all types of projects. All designers and design firms, whether in-house or freelance, create their own greeting cards which serve not only as a greeting card, but as an opportunity to show off their work in a totally unique and uninhibited light. In addition, they are the perfect project because they are small enough so they are not incredibly time consuming nor are they very expensive to produce -- even with unique materials or treatments.

Rhetorical Occasions: Essays on Humans and the Humanities

Rhetorical Occasions: Essays on Humans and the Humanities Review

A nationally known scholar, essayist, and public advocate for the humanities, Michael B©rub© has a rapier wit and a singular talent for parsing complex philosophical, theoretical, and political questions. Rhetorical Occasions collects twenty-four of his major essays and reviews, plus a sampling of entries on literary theory and contemporary culture from his award-winning weblog.

Selected to showcase the range of public writing available to scholars, the essays are grouped into five topical sections: the Sokal hoax and its effects on the humanities; cosmopolitanism, American studies, and cultural studies; daily academic life inside and outside the classroom; the events of September 11, 2001, and their political aftermath; and the potential discursive and tonal range of academic blog writing. In lively and entertaining prose, B©rub© offers a wide array of interventions into matters academic and nonacademic. By example and illustration, he reminds readers that the humanities remain central to our understanding of what it means to be human.
