<p>In "Straight Talk, No Chaser", Steve Harvey zeros in on what motivates men and provides tips on how women can use that knowledge to get more of what they need out of their relationships, whether it's more help around the house, more of the right kind of attention in the bedroom, more money in the joint bank account, or more truth when it comes to the hard questions concerning commitment, fidelity, jealousy, support, and children. Steve provides insight on a wide range of subjects, from "How to Get the Truth Out of Your Man" to "How to Minimize Nagging and Maximize Harmony at Home". In addition, he offers dating tips decade by decade, acknowledging that women in their twenties who are just starting to date seriously are asking different questions than women in their thirties who may feel the tick of their biological clocks. And there's much more, including Steve's candid answers to questions women have always wanted to ask men. Drawing on a lifetime of experience and the feedback women around the country have shared with him, Steve offers wisdom on a wealth of topics relevant to both sexes today.

<p>Kroj, lidová píseň, hudba a tanec i další projevy tradiční lidové kultury zůstávají fenoménem, který v nás přežívá, který si vědomě pěstujeme a který si dnes dokážeme uchopit po svém k radosti vlastní i těch kolem nás. Snad i tato kniha bude malým skromným krokem k jeho udržení a názornou ukázkou jeho podoby na začátku 21. století! Kniha se tak stává průvodcem či doprovodným materiálem k velkolepě koncipovaným ročníkům Slavnosti vína v Uherském Hradišti. Zachycuje současnou podobu slavnostního kroje v jednotlivých obcích. Přibližuje výjimečnou pestrost slováckých krojů nejen návštěvníkům slavností, ale i široké veřejnosti, a dokládá neutuchající životnost tohoto fenoménu. Přínosem může být i pro krojové krejčí a švadleny, kteří ji mohou vnímat jako příručku, ale i pro odborníky, neboť přináší zajímavý ikonografický materiál, zaznamenávající určité vývojové stadium tradičního oděvu Uherskohradišťska. Kniha je koncipována do tří základních bloků. První oddíl chronologicky představuje Slovácké slavnosti vína a otevřených památek v deseti podkapitolách. Na něj navazuje devět velkých oddílů, v nichž je v závislosti na členění našeho regionu na mikroregiony (hostitelské město Uherské Hradiště, Staroměstsko, Za Moravú, Buchlov, Dolní Poolšaví, Ostrožsko, Východní Slovácko, Bílé Karpaty, Uherskobrodsko a Hosté) podána stručná charakteristika krajiny, historie i kulturního vyžití. Stěžejní část představuje populárně odborný popis kroje, jeho jednotlivých součástí, včetně zdobných prvků. Autorům se podařilo zachytit páry v místních krojích ze 75 obcí, včetně záběrů zajímavých detailů. Publikace tak přináší rozsáhlé i náročné téma, které se týká mimořádně pestré variability krojů na Slovácku. Nezpracovává však vývojové proměny lidového odívání na základě odborných textů, nezabývá se nejstaršími variantami kroje, jejich pracovní, všední, sváteční či obřadní podobou. Záměrem vydavatele bylo předložit a přehledně prezentovat všechny obce a jejich současný kroj, soustředěné podle nového územního členění do mikroregionů, které díky tomuto dobrovolnému svazku mohou iniciovat činnost nejen v oblasti řešení místních problémů, ale zastoupení v mikroregionech je též pozitivním jevem ve venkovském prostoru a jejich vznik a vyvíjení aktivit umožňuje obcím získávat finanční prostředky z různých fondů pro společné programy, akce a konkrétní projekty.</p>

<p>The six poets whose work is included in this collection have become known to the wider Czech readership in the past ten to fifteen years, despite the fact that they belong to two very different generations: the generation exiled by the totalitarian regime of pre-Velvet Revolution Czechoslovakia - whether from public literary life or from the country itself - and the younger generation which started publishing in the late 1990s. Both were faced with the task of mending the broken continuity of Czech poetry, reclaiming the sources of its inspiration - whether it may be the subconscious and dreams, the undercurrents of human relationships, or closely observed everyday objects and situations which acquire a poetic and ontological significance - and, ultimately, with the task of restoring the very medium of poetic expression, language itself.</p>

<p>A personal and powerful essay on loss from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the bestselling author of Americanah and Half of a Yellow Sun. 'Grief is a cruel kind of education. You learn how ungentle mourning can be, how full of anger. You learn how glib condolences can feel. You learn how much grief is about language, the failure of language and the grasping for language' On 10 June 2020, the scholar James Nwoye Adichie died suddenly in Nigeria. In this tender and powerful essay, expanded from the original New Yorker text, his daughter, a self-confessed daddy's girl, remembers her beloved father. Notes on Grief is at once a tribute to a long life of grace and wisdom, the story of a daughter's fierce love for a parent, and a revealing examination of the layers of loss and the nature of grief.</p>
