Tiffany Desk Sets by William R. Holland Pdf

In the dynamic first quarter of the 20th century, Louis Comfort Tiffany and his Tiffany Studios in New York City produced 24 distinctly different bronze desk-set patterns with nearly 1,000 different items sold separately, so that successful business leaders could decide which and how many they could arrange on their desks. The typical set might include inkwell, pen tray, paper rack, rocker blotter, and decorative ends for the desk blotter. Some patterns have a dozen or fewer items, but a few patterns have about 80 items available. Over 600 color photographs show most of the desk set items, with carefully researched text, including their Tiffany item numbers, markings, sizes, related pieces, and rarity, and an indispensible Master List of all the original Tiffany Studios items, including lamps, planters, match holders, etc., in numerical order. It will help to identify pieces never seen before and mismatched and put-together items. This is the most comprehensice collecting guide to the subject..

Cubed by Nikil Saval Pdf

A New York Times Notable Book • Daily Beast Best Nonfiction of 2014 • Inc. Magazine's Most Thought-Provoking Books of the Year “Man is born free, but he is everywhere in cubicles.” How did we get from Scrooge’s office to “Office Space”? From bookkeepers in dark countinghouses to freelancers in bright cafes? What would the world be like without the vertical file cabinet? What would the world be like without the office at all? In Cubed, Nikil Saval chronicles the evolution of the office in a fascinating, often funny, and sometimes disturbing anatomy of the white-collar world and how it came to be the way it is. Drawing on the history of architecture and business, as well as a host of pop culture artifacts—from Mad Men to Dilbert (and, yes, The Office)—and ranging in time from the earliest clerical houses to the surprisingly utopian origins of the cubicle to the funhouse campuses of Silicon Valley, Cubed is an all-encompassing investigation into the way we work, why we do it the way we do (and often don’t like it), and how we might do better.

Mike And Bunny by Shooter3704 Pdf

They say monotony is the enemy of monogamy. Mike Rivers was a self-confessed geek and there was nothing monotonous about his life after he met her. He was a computer nerd who knew nothing about women or much about life away from his keyboard. Then he met Bunny and thus began his lessons about women and about sex and about love. Three things of which he had zero knowledge. Mike innocently entered into a world he had only read and dreamed about. A world of sex, sex and more sex. Bunny told him there was a vast difference between love and fucking and that he shouldn't confuse the two. Luckily he was a quick study and Bunny was a patient teacher. Mike tell the story of how he entered into a family of hedonists and came to love it and Bunny's odd family. Mike listened intently as Bunny tells him about her life before they met. This is a shooter's yarn so of course there is interracial sex. There is plenty of one on one, two on one and more on one. There is also some girl on girl sex.

Front Desk by Kelly Yang Pdf

An empowering story of empathy, courage, and hope, based on the author's real-life experience immigrating to the US as a child and working at the front desk of the motel where her parents work. Ten year-old Mia Tang moved to the US for a better life, a freer life, but so far, it's a life where she runs the front desk of a motel while her parents clean rooms.
