| she sees colors everywhere: Miraculous Grace David E. Meyer, 2022-01-15 Have you ever caught yourself wondering where was God when you really needed Him? As far as I was concerned, I was just one person out of the billions of people on earth. Why should God be interested in my troubles? The Holy Spirit is our teacher, and He loves to reveal truths about God's grace toward us. Grace isn't just something we say before meals; it is getting something we don't deserve, and it's also not getting what we do deserve. Grace allows us to have access to the living God and all of His gifts. Life can throw many difficulties as we go along, whether it be money, health, danger, or a long list of other concerns. Read how the Holy Spirit meets us where we are then directs, guides, and proves Himself over and over again. Even though we don't deserve any help, He is always present and aware of all our individual circumstances. He wants to help when or where it's needed and work a miracle just for us. No one has earned or deserves a miracle, but when one actually happens, we learn more of his miraculous grace. |
| she sees colors everywhere: Color It True Murray Pomerance, 2021-12-16 This often-startlingly original book introduces a new way of thinking about color in film as distinct from existing approaches which tend to emphasize either technical processes and/or histories of film coloration, or the meaning(s) of color as metaphor or symbol, or else part of a broader signifying system. Murray Pomerance's latest meditation on cinema has the author embed himself in various ways of thinking about color; not ways of framing it as a production trick or a symbolic language but ways of wondering how the color effect onscreen can work in the act of viewing. Pomerance examines many issues, including acuity, dreaming, interrelationships, saturations, color contrasts, color and performance (color as a performance aid or even performance substitute), and more. The lavender of the photographer's seamless in Antonioni's Blow-Up taken in itself as an explosion of color worked into form, and then considered both as part of the story and part of our experience. The 14 chapters of this book each discuss a single primary color as regards to our experience of cinema. After opening the idea of such an exploration in terms of the history of our apperception and the variation in our experience that color germinates, Color it True takes form. |

Andrew Haswell Green is dead, shot at the venerable age of eighty-three, when he thought life could hold no more surprises. The killing—on Park Avenue in broad daylight, on Friday the thirteenth—shook the city. Born to a struggling farmer, Green was a self-made man without whom there would be no Central Park, no Metropolitan Museum of Art, no Museum of Natural History, no New York Public Library. But Green had a secret, a life locked within him that now, in the hour of his death, may finally break free. A work of tremendous depth and piercing emotion, The Great Mistake is the story of a city transformed, a murder that made a private man infamous, and a portrait of a singular individual who found the world closed off to him—yet enlarged it. |
