I-DJ is a story of Warren Peace aka Amado Guerrero Paz, a gay Mexican American youth who finds his calling as a DJ. He spins the soundtrack of his life on the dance floor by night and by day in a gay send-up of Shakesqueer's Ham-a-lot set to a dub-step beat of ecstasy, tainted love, Rollerena and Herb Alpert. When a younger DJ challenges him to a musical standoff, their stories and their music collide. Only one will emerge triumphant. I-DJ was a critical hit at the 2014 Frigid Fringe New York. NPR Theater critic Jeff Lunden hailed I-DJ as "original, witty and deeply moving."

Emanuel Goldenberg was born in Romania and from the age of ten grew up in New York's Lower East Side. He trained at the legendary Theater Guild, changed his name, and starred in many successful Broadway plays before moving to Hollywood. Among his most famous films were Double Indemnity with Barbara Stanwyck, The Stranger with Orson Welles, Key Largo with Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston, The Cincinnati Kid with Steve McQueen, and, of course, Little Caesar. After twenty successful years in film, Robinson's career was shattered by the McCarthy Commission. Although there was never any concrete proof that Robinson was in fact a member of the Communist party, it took five years for him to clear his name. In this fascinating biography, Alan L. Gansberg reveals the man behind the public face, his many memorable roles among more than 100 films, and his struggle to find steady work in Hollywood again. Includes 16 pages of photos.

While she learned that important research on triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) was emerging, she found a noticeable lack of resources on the disease, which differs from hormone-positive breast cancer in important ways, including prognosis and treatment options. Triple-negative breast cancer disproportionately affects younger women and African-American women-and some forms of it can be more dangerous than other types of breast cancer. But there are many reasons to be ho...

17. Yüzyılda yaşayan ünlü fizikçi Newton’un kurduğu bilim, kendimizle beraber çevremizde gördüğümüz hemen her şeyi ve aralarındaki ilişkileri matematik formülleriyle açıklar. Teknoloji ve uygarlık bu günlere bu bilim sayesinde gelmiştir. Ancak, 20. Yüzyılın başlarında kuantum biliminin doğmasıyla atomların içindeki dünya keşfedilmeye başlanınca görülmüştür ki, en derinde her şeyin özü enerjidir. Ve o enerjiler daha çok düşünce gibi hareket ederler. Yani işin içinde bilinç de vardır. Böyle olunca bilim adamlarının kafası karışmıştır. Dağlar, binalar ve gezegenlerin bilimi hala Newton bilimidir. Ama ya atomların içindeki en küç...
