Review & Description

The Reverend Doctor J. Frank Norris was many things: a pastor who led the nation s first megachurch, a provocative publisher, and a pioneer broadcaster. At his apex during the roaring twenties, Norris preached to a congregation of 10,000 at First Baptist Church in Fort Worth, Texas. With the flair of a great showman, he railed against vice and injustice.

Rev. Norris was also a killer.

To those who dared to challenge him, J. Frank Norris was a formidable foe, as demonstrated with swift brutality in 1926, when he shot an unarmed critic to death. The killing and subsequent trial became a national media sensation.

Using more than 6,000 pages of newspaper articles, court records, and a variety of other published works, author and minister David Stokes vividly recreates the story of the fundamentalist movement s most controversial figure. Mesmerizing in its vivid details, Apparent Danger skillfully explores the events leading up to one of the most intriguing--yet least known true crime dramas in America s legal history. Read more

Review & Description

256 Pages, Richly illustrated book covers the career of a pop music legend, from the child star whose infections lead vocals catapulted the Jackson 5 into the spotlight, to the feeding frenzy that surrounded the announcement of a new tour in summer 2009. Michael Jackson was just 11 years old when "I Want You Back" topped the Billboard chart in 1970. Countless hits followed both with the Jackson 5 and during his solo career. His 1979 platinum album Off the Wall yielded four Top Ten hits, but it was his follow-up, Thriller, which became the best-selling album of all time, earning Jackson an unprecedented seven Grammy awards. The superstar is credited with redefining the music video, with Thriller being widely regarded as the best music video ever, while his famous "moonwalk" became his signature move, just as his single sequined glove became his trademark look. Michael Jackson had charisma. He was a flamboyant showman, a dazzling performer who owned the state. His death brought down the curtain on a turbulent life, but did not end his reign as the King of Pop. He lives on through his extraordinary body of work, which will ensure that his regal status lives on. This is the ULTIMATE book for the Michael Jackson fan! Read more

Review & Description

This unique, highly acclaimed entertainment, stars Marlo Thomas, and features such celebrated talents as Alan Alda, Harry Belafonte, Mel Brooks, Rita Coolidge, Billy De Wolfe, Roberta Flack, Rosey Grier, Michael Jackson, Kris Kristopherson, THe New Seekers, Tom Smothers, The Voices of East Harlem and Dionne Warwick. Free To Be...You And Me is a journey into the endless possibilities of life, rich with positive, life-enhancing messages about growth and change. In a series of live action and animation, positive messages of self-esteem are illustrated through songs, stories and laughter. It explores children's authentic experiences, their dreams and concerns, their fears and fantasies. Among the highlights are Marlo Thomas and Mel Brooks in Boy Meets Girl and football hero Rosey Grier, singing It's Alright to Cry. In addition, Michael Jackson and Roberta Flack perform When We Grow Up and Alan Alda narrates the tale of Atalanta. This enchanted fun-filled voyage of discovery for adults and children to enjoy together is a superb addition to any family's home video library.Like Schoolhouse Rock, Marlo Thomas's 1970s children's TV show, Free to Be… You and Me met with immediate success and became a treasured piece of entertainment over the years. Based on her award-winning album of songs, skits, and comedy, Free to Be explores the infinite possibilities of childhood. Fans know most of the skits in the 45-minute show verbatim, and it's easy to see why right from the beginning with an infectious title track followed by a puppet sketch featuring Thomas and Mel Brooks as newborns. Top talent appears on both sides of the camera, including Alan Alda who directs and performs a cartoon about a boy who wants a doll. However, the presentation does show its age at times: a teenage Michael Jackson singing (with Roberta Flack) on how he's not going to change when he grows up. For all ages. --Doug Thomas Read more

Review & Description

The journey that first started with Songs of the Angelic Gaze and continued with The Bridge of Silver Wings now moves into even deeper and higher realms of creative wonder in THE RIVER OF WINGED DREAMS. Online readers noted from the beginning that something special was happening as those poems which would eventually comprise Songs of the Angelic Gaze popped up in Internet posts every other week, much like the unusual angels which many of the poems described have been said to appear unexpectedly in individuals lives. Movie-goers, television-watchers, and readers of novels not to mention students of world spirituality-- have long been accustomed to the idea of paranormal partnerships between humans and angels and terrifying clashes with demons. What they had not seen or heard until Songs of the Angelic Gaze -- were such passionate classic struggles presented in the voice of a modern poet who seemed to have occupied a front row seat to battle in both heaven and hell while transcribing all he witnessed into highly original and powerfully mesmerizing literary art. Those unfamiliar with Songs of the Angelic Gaze and The Bridge of Silver Wings will be glad to know that THE RIVER OF WINGED DREAMS contains all the works presented in the previous volume plus much more. So there is no need for them to purchase the previous title unless they wish to do so for the collectible cover art by Luther E. Vann (though even this is available with more than 60 other reproductions of Vann s work in ELEMENTAL, The Power of Illuminated Love ). Those who own The Bridge of Silver Wings might ask why they should invest in THE RIVER OF WINGED DREAMS. The best answer to that would be the book s introduction, which has been published online as Evolution of a Vision, from Songs of the Angelic Gaze to The River of Winged Dreams. In it, the author notes: ...the death of a dream can in fact serve as the vehicle that endows it with new form, with reinvigorated substance, a fresh flow of ideas, and splendidly revitalized color. In short, the power of a certain kind of dream is such that death need not indicate finality at all but rather signify a metaphysical and metaphorical leap forward. Read more

First tagged by Caz
Customer tags: boylove(5), boys(2), michael jackson, victimology, damaging

Review & Description

This book was an outgrowth of the uproar that resulted from the 1998 publication of what has become known as the "Rind Report" (Psychological Bulletin 124 (1) 32-53). This scholarly report has been attacked on all sides by the pseudoscience of victimology and the child sex abuse industry, winding up with a "condemnation" by the US Congress, most of the members of which had never even seen the report. Understanding Loved Boys and Boylovers has, in turn, has been attacked by people ranging from a west coast book publisher who threatened to boycott amazon.com to a British tabloid which printed bare-faced lies about the content of the book. It has been called pseudo-science, filth, something that "civilized" people would reject out of hand, and has been pejoratively misidentified as being a "how-to-molest-children" manual targeted at those who are attracted to boys, which it most definitely is not. It is really aimed at the general public, and "is neither a manifesto nor a set of demands, it is a plea for reasonableness and understanding." (p. xi).

What the Rind Report and this book have in common, however, is that many years down the road neither has been factually discredited, although the vicious and vacuous attacks are still ongoing. After the first printing was exhausted, requests for copies kept coming in to the publisher, so this 2009 printing was authorized, with only minor corrections, updates, and a one-page preface added to the 2000 text. It would be Pollyannaish to dare to hope that the vitriol and venom have run their course, but it is hoped that some of the more reasonable members of society will now take the time to find out about the "other side" of these issues; if not from this book, then from the growing body of academic and professional literature which is finally deconstructing and dismantling the hysteria and mythology of the counterfeit child sex abuse industry.Is there such a thing as a legitimate sexual relationship between an adult male and an underage boy? Most civilized people would answer emphatically "no," and Understanding Loved Boys and Boylovers won't convince them otherwise. Defensive in tone and amateurishly produced, this monograph uses both pseudo-scholarship and anecdotes in its attempt to justify its target audience's actions and feelings. --Christopher Hart Read more

Review & Description

IS THERE A PATH TO THE SOUL OF EVERY SPHINX? What world did Michael Jackson live in? For him, from an early age, developing his creativity was a matter of life and death. To survive, he invested all of his energy in building a mental fortress. The price he paid was loneliness. Then he added another shield, a media persona. There was no going back. He kept sinking into his fantasy world. A common mistake when dealing with Michael Jackson is to only rely on facts. The trouble is, facts don't fit in a fantasy world. That's why this book is different. Its purpose is to understand Michael Jackson from the inside out. As a child, did you ever: Want to be the perfect kid to feel loved? Try to think about something very hard to make it happen? Dream of being the son of a king? If so, then your memories will help you grasp who Michael Jackson really was. Because as he grew up, he kept those mindsets alive. As a result, his intimate world was weird, intricate and challenging. But there is a path to the soul of every Sphinx. Piercing the wall of the legend with a referenced analysis of his career and personal life, Backdoor to Neverland proposes a new and original exploration of Michael Jackson's core. And - surprisingly enough - with the King of Pop, beneath every stone that you flip there is a golden nugget. # The Thriller video, decoded # The oxygen chamber, a portal to Michael's fantasies # Elephant man and the legacy of P.T. Barnum # The Mozart of denial # The meaning of the glove and of the plasters # In love with the number 7 # The Neverland ranch, a personal Alcatraz # Peter Pan for ever # Love as an awful adventure # The nose, battlefield of the self # King of Pop, a virility issue # How did Michael's universe protect him during the 2005 trial? # Michael and Elvis, same in birth and death? # The logic behind Michael Jackson's fatherhood. # The Moonchild Mystery: was Aleister Crowley, the Satanist, an inspiration for Jackson? # Read more

Genre: Popular Music
Media Format: Compact Disk
Rating:
Release Date: 12-JAN-1999Released in late 1983, Pipes of Peace peaked at No. 15 on the Billboard album charts, thereby becoming the first Paul McCartney LP to run out of gas before reaching the U.S. top 10. Which is not to say that it deserved better--despite the well-meaning title track and the duet with Michael Jackson on "Say Say Say," Pipes of Peace marked a definite artistic low for Sir Paul. Coming on the heels of 1982's effervescent Tug of War, Pipes of Peace sounded surprisingly sleepy and uninspired, and the few half-decent songs ("Keep Under Cover," the unfortunately titled "So Bad") didn't stand a chance against the album's bland, state-of-the-'80s production values. "Say Say Say," a big improvement over "The Girl Is Mine," Macca and Michael's previous collaboration, easily outclasses the album's other tracks. Happily, you can also find it on All the Best, where it gets the company it deserves. --Dan Epstein Read more
