Silver Bullets
Author: Elmer Mendoza
Publisher: MacLehose Press
ISBN: 168144612X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
It's just another day at the office for Detective Edgar "Lefty" Mendieta: abandoned by the woman he loves, demoralized by his city's (nad his nation's) ubiquitous corruption, and in dire need of some psychotherapy. Against this backdrop, he catches the case of Bruno Canizales, a high-powered lawyer with a double life, who was killed by a single silver bullet. Throwing himself into his work, Mendieta begins to piece together the details of Canizales' life. The son of a former government minister, and the lover of a drug lord's daughter, Canizales it seems had a penchant for cross-dressing and edgy sex. In the sweltering city of Culiacán, Mexico's capital of narco-crime, Mendieta scrambles to follow several leads. His dogged pursuit of the killer takes him from glitzy mansions to drug dens, from down-at-the-heels reporters to glamorous transsexuals. When a second, apparently related murder surfaces, Mendieta discovers that his desire to unearth the truth has become as overpowering as any drug.

Save the Silver Bullet
Author: Ben de Haldevang
Publisher: Agile Gorilla
ISBN: 9781527299375
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
We are all of us affected by change, whether it's in our workplace or in our home. Our response to this has a material impact on whether it succeeds or fails. At a fundamentally pragmatic level, Save the Silver Bullet illustrates the extraordinary capacity we have to adapt and respond to change. That response is neither linear and nor easy to navigate. It does not follow a clearly defined strategic path. It is highly intuitive and reflective of our lives at a deeply personal level. Save the Silver Bullet is a book of transformation stories... extraordinary stories of success and failure in delivering complex transformation and highly disruptive change. Most importantly the stories are told by those who are at the core of the implementation effort, in all their messy, illogical and thoroughly 'human' detail. 'Save the Silver Bullet' sets out the conditions under which transformation can be successful and those where it will not be. The corporate environments in which we work have a huge role to play in determining this and describing these conditions is a good place to start as we try to improve overall success rates.

Evaluating the Complex
Author: Kim Forss
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351376640
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
In the economic atmosphere following the crisis of 2008, not only have governments reacted by creating more complex policy initiatives, but they have also promised that all of these initiatives will be evaluated. Due to the complexity of many of the initiatives, the ways of evaluating are becoming equally complex. The book begins with a theoretical and conceptual explanation of the process and shows how this translates into the practice of evaluation. The chapters cover a wide variety of subjects, such as poverty, homelessness, smoking prevention, HIV/AIDS, and child labor. The use of case studies sheds light on the conceptual ideas at work in organizations addressing some of the world's largest and most varied problems. The evaluation process seeks a balance between order and chaos. The interaction of four elements—simplicity, inventiveness, flexibility, and specificity—allows complex patterns to emerge. The case studies illustrate this framework and provide a number of examples of practical management of complexity, in light of contingency theories of the evaluation process itself. These theories in turn match the complexity of evaluated policies, strategies, and programs. The evaluation process is examined for its impact on policy outcomes and choices.

No Silver Bullets

Publisher: B&H Publishing Group
ISBN: 1433651556
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
What if I told you that you were only one step away from unlocking new levels of maturity and growth in your church? The myth of the silver bullet still exists because we desperately want it to. We all prefer quick fixes and bandage solutions to the long, hard, slow work that produces real change. So the moment we learn about a new ministry or strategy and see its effect in another church, we run to implement it in our own. Unfortunately, this impulse is usually met by opposition, skepticism, and ultimately, rejection. What if the solution isn't a new model or a complicated strategy, but a shift in perspective? What if you could keep your church's current vision, values, and model, and simply make a few micro-shifts...leading to macro-changes? This book explores five micro-shifts that have the potential to produce macro-changes in your church. As you read, you will discover how to integrate these micro-shifts into the life of your church, starting with the way you disciple. You will finish by developing a plan to structure, communicate, and evaluate these changes to ensure that they take root and pave the way for lasting change and kingdom impact.

Remaking Horror
Author: James Francis, Jr.
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786470887
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
This book chronicles the American horror film genre in its development of remakes from the 1930s into the 21st century. Gus Van Sant's 1998 remake of Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho (1960) is investigated as the watershed moment when the genre opened its doors to the possibility that any horror movie--classic, modern, B-movie, and more--might be remade for contemporary audiences. Staple horror franchises--Halloween (1978), Friday the 13th (1980), and A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)--are highlighted along with their remake counterparts in order to illustrate how the genre has embraced a phenomenon of remake productions and what the future of horror holds for American cinema. More than 25 original films, their remakes, and the movies they influenced are presented in detailed discussions throughout the text.

Fang & Claw - Tooth & Nail
Author: Douglas Christian Larsen
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1257149997
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Rodolphus and Larsen, together in one book for the very first time. Although very different writers, these two storytellers stir emotions, produce chills, and introduce people we soon know and love (and sometimes hate and fear). Collected here are such singular works as Fearsweat, wherein a supernatural stalker threatens an entire town. In My Father: The Killer, we meet a young man who has always believed the worst about his father, a famed terrorist. Interstate Chimes accompanies twins completing their separate destinies outside of time and space. We enter an amazing little girl's creative genius in Four-Leaf Clovers. And for a dark laugh (and scream) we ride along with The Dread Cowboy. Included herein is the unfinished Rodolphus master-work, the novella Contest Darkly which taps into the incredible world of Larsen's Vanya Song (a novel 40 years in the making). Rodolphus and Larsen, like coffee and cream, or hemlock and wine, we experience a world incredibly dark, yet vividly bright.
