Explosive! Amazing! Terrifying! You won’t believe your eyes! Such movie taglines were common in the 1950s, as Hollywood churned out a variety of low-budget pictures that were sold on the basis of their sensational content and topicality. While a few of these movies have since become canonized by film fans and critics, a number of the era’s biggest fads have now faded into obscurity. The Cool and the Crazy examines seven of these film cycles, including short-lived trends like boxing movies, war pictures, and social problem films detailing the sordid and violent life of teenagers, as well as uniquely 1950s takes on established genres like the gangster picture. Peter Stanfield reveals how Hollywood sought to capitalize upon current events, moral panics, and popular fads, making movies that were “ripped from the headlines” on everything from the Korean War to rock and roll. As he offers careful readings of several key films, he also considers the broader historical and commercial contexts in which these films were produced, marketed, and exhibited. In the process, Stanfield uncovers surprising synergies between Hollywood and other arenas of popular culture, like the ways that the fashion trend for blue jeans influenced the 1950s Western. Delivering sharp critical insights in jazzy, accessible prose, The Cool and the Crazy offers an appreciation of cinema as a “pop” medium, unabashedly derivative, faddish, and ephemeral. By studying these long-burst bubbles of 1950s “pop,” Stanfield reveals something new about what films do and the pleasures they provide.

This book could very well have been title “How to Apply The Law in Righteous Judgement!” Self-righteousness and unrighteous use of The Torah by those who believe they have the authority to impose their opinion of The Law in other’s lives, is a CANCER! A cancer that has consumed the body of the Messiah, and that cancer is terminal. Those who abuse the Torah in this way, will be judged by The Law outside of Grace and will not inherit the Kingdom. Proper judgement is the foundation of being a Priest and a King, and no human will be transposed into that eternal Kingdom if they have not learned proper judgement. The purpose of this book is to help the Nazarenes understand The Law, how to discern intent, how to apply The Law in our OWN lives, and how to avoid the temptation to apply it to the lives of others. The Law is a personal guide to Righteousness that is used by Yahuah as the vehicle by which He trains us within the context of a personal relationship… We are never to use The Law to judge another’s servant! In this book I am going to build the foundation and beliefs of The Nazarene, the true sons of Yahuah and followers of The Branch. I am also going to then establish the beliefs of Sha’ul the Apostle as he was one of the most influential Nazarenes who ever lived. I am going to then address The Pauline Doctrine and dismantle that false doctrine point by point. The Pauline Doctrine is a Greek appropriate “doctrine” born out of sound bite implied lies, twisted scriptures, and ignorance of the scriptures. This book will establish the place of The Law in The Plan of Salvation, in each covenant, in our lives, in The Yahushaic Covenant, and most importantly in the Kingdom to come. In this book I am going to break down The Law in all its aspects, explain the transposition of The Law from Oral to Written to Intent, and define what each part of The Law applies to us specifically. This life is training for the next, The Law is the governing constitution of that coming Kingdom, where we serve as Priests and Kings. This life is "law school" as those positions are founded on Righteous Judgement. This book is the text book for "The Law 101" which is this life as we are trained as "Lawyers", an introductory class to understanding Yahuah's Intentions in giving us His Torah.

This book investigates request strategies in Mandarin Chinese and Korean, and is one of the first attempts to address cross-cultural strategies employed in the speech act of requests in two non-Western languages. The data, drawn from role-plays and naturally recorded conversations, complement each other in terms of exhaustiveness and authenticity. This study explores the similarities and differences of the request patterns that emerged in the Chinese and Korean data, and the intricate relation between request strategies and social factors (such as power and distance). The findings raise questions about the influence of methodology on data, and the applicability of so called universals to East Asian languages. They also offer new insights into generally held ideas of directness and requesting behaviours in Chinese and Korean, and the problems of cross-cultural and cross-linguistic communication.This research is suggestive for the disciplines of cross-cultural pragmatics, cross-cultural communication, contrastive linguistics, applied linguistics and discourse analysis.
