Johannes Kahrs: Lonely Long Meaningless Way Home
At first glance, Johannes Kahrs' dramatic paintings and drawings seem to carry forward the clear, everyday truths of snapshots; on closer inspection they become intricate, mysterious, fictional worlds. Kahrs manipulates found imagery from film stills, newspapers and personal photographs and liberates figures from their original contexts into dark, uncanny atmospheres. Through an intense pursuit of detail, he works to transplant into the viewer his own initial fascination with the image for its own sake. On top of all this methodology and maneuvering, he distances the viewer from the works by presenting them behind glass, so that their glazed surfaces throw back light and reflection. Kahrs, born in Bremen in 1961 and currently based in Berlin, has shown widely in Europe, at the Drawing Center and P.S.1 in New York, the Phoenix Art Museum and Miami's Bass Museum of Art..

Power Nothings: 4612 Meaningless Phrases to Keep Your Coworkers Smiling While Avoiding Actual Conversation
One can like 'em, hate 'em or simply be too busy to deal with 'em, but they will still be there: in the hallway, outside the bathroom, at the water cooler, and around every cubicle—day after day. They're the plague of the American workplace—the friendly, talkative coworker.

Contrary to conventional wisdom, the greatest challenge in today's office environment is not how to keep from being stabbed in the back by corporate climbers; it's how to avoid burdensome friendships with well-intentioned but energy-sucking office mates. However, simply ignoring these chatty coworkers will only make them angry and difficult to work with. This book offers the only safe alternative: meaningless phrases that are just clever enough to elicit a quick chuckle and a smile, but don't really say anything, ask anything or ever lead to an actual conversation. Thanks to this book, the reader will have thousands of little pearls to make coworkers think he or she is witty, interesting and likable, while allowing them to remain total strangers.

From the supplier: Financial reporting in the mass media suffers from a pitfall in logical reasoning known as begging the question. The reader of these reports should remind himself that Wall Street produces huge volumes of information daily and should be wary of easily understood explanations of the financial scene. Begging the question produces statements which give the illusion of a cause and effect relationship between concepts but, upon closer inspection, does not really provide insights.
