| your dork: King Dork Frank Portman, 2008-02-12 As John Green, New York Times bestselling author of The Fault in Our Stars said, “King Dork will rock your world.” The cult favorite from Frank Portman, aka Dr. Frank of the Mr. T. Experience, is a book like nothing ever done before--King Dork literally has something for everyone: At least a half-dozen mysteries, love, mistaken identity, girls, monks, books, blood, bubblegum, and rock and roll. This book is based on music--a passion most kids have--and it has original (hilarious) songs and song lyrics throughout. When Tom Henderson finds his deceased father’s copy of J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye, his world is turned upside down. Suddenly high school gets more complicated: Tom (aka King Dork) is in the middle of at least half a dozen mysteries involving dead people, naked people, fake people, a secret code, girls, and rock and roll. As he goes through sophomore year, he finds clues that may very well solve the puzzle of his father’s death and—oddly—reveal the secret to attracting semi-hot girls (the secret might be being in a band, if he can find a drummer who can count to four. A brilliant story told in first person, King Dork includes a glossary and a bandography, which readers will find helpful and hilarious. Praise for King Dork: “Basically, if you are a human being with even a vague grasp of the English language, King Dork, will rock your world.”—John Green, author of The Fault in Our Stars “[No account of high school] has made me laugh more than King Dork. . . . Grade A.”—Entertainment Weekly “Impossibly brilliant.”—Time “Provides a window into what it would be like if Holden Caulfield read The Catcher in the Rye.”—New York Post [STAR] “Original, heartfelt, and sparkling with wit and intelligence. This novel will linger long in readers’ memories.”—School Library Journal, Starred [STAR] “A biting and witty high-school satire.”—Kirkus Reviews, Starred [STAR] “Tom’s narration is piercingly satirical and acidly witty.”—The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books, Starred “Loaded with sharp and offbeat humor.”—USA Today “King Dork is smart, funny, occasionally raunchy and refreshingly clear about what it’s like to be in high school.”—San Francisco Chronicle “King Dork: Best Punk Rock Book Ever.”—The Village Voice “I love this book as much as I hated high school, and that’s some of the highest praise I can possibly give.”—Bookslut.com |

| your dork: Airline Maps Mark Ovenden, Maxwell Roberts, 2019-10-29 A nostalgic and celebratory look back at one hundred years of passenger flight, featuring full-color reproductions of route maps and posters from the world's most iconic airlines, from the author of bestselling cult classic Transit Maps of the World. In this gorgeously illustrated collection of airline route maps, Mark Ovenden and Maxwell Roberts look to the skies and transport readers to another time. Hundreds of images span a century of passenger flight, from the rudimentary trajectory of routes to the most intricately detailed birds-eye views of the land to be flown over. Advertisements for the first scheduled commercial passenger flights featured only a few destinations, with stunning views of the countryside and graphics of biplanes. As aviation took off, speed and mileage were trumpeted on bold posters featuring busy routes. Major airlines produced highly stylized illustrations of their global presence, establishing now-classic brands. With trendy and forward-looking designs, cartographers celebrated the coming together of different cultures and made the earth look ever smaller. Eventually, fleets got bigger and routes multiplied, and graphic designers have found creative new ways to display huge amounts of information. Airline hubs bring their own cultural mark and advertise their plentiful destination options. Innovative maps depict our busy world with webs of overlapping routes and networks of low-cost city-to-city hopping. But though flying has become more commonplace, Ovenden and Roberts remind us that early air travel was a glamorous affair for good reason. Airline Maps is a celebration of graphic design, cartographic skills and clever marketing, and a visual feast that reminds us to enjoy the journey as much as the destination. |
| your dork: Make Time Jake Knapp, John Zeratsky, 2018-09-25 From the New York Times bestselling authors of Sprint comes “a unique and engaging read about a proven habit framework [that] readers can apply to each day” (Insider, Best Books to Form New Habits). “If you want to achieve more (without going nuts), read this book.”—Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit Nobody ever looked at an empty calendar and said, The best way to spend this time is by cramming it full of meetings! or got to work in the morning and thought, Today I'll spend hours on Facebook! Yet that's exactly what we do. Why? In a world where information refreshes endlessly and the workday feels like a race to react to other people's priorities faster, frazzled and distracted has become our default position. But what if the exhaustion of constant busyness wasn't mandatory? What if you could step off the hamster wheel and start taking control of your time and attention? That's what this book is about. As creators of Google Ventures' renowned design sprint, Jake and John have helped hundreds of teams solve important problems by changing how they work. Building on the success of these sprints and their experience designing ubiquitous tech products from Gmail to YouTube, they spent years experimenting with their own habits and routines, looking for ways to help people optimize their energy, focus, and time. Now they've packaged the most effective tactics into a four-step daily framework that anyone can use to systematically design their days. Make Time is not a one-size-fits-all formula. Instead, it offers a customizable menu of bite-size tips and strategies that can be tailored to individual habits and lifestyles. Make Time isn't about productivity, or checking off more to-dos. Nor does it propose unrealistic solutions like throwing out your smartphone or swearing off social media. Making time isn't about radically overhauling your lifestyle; it's about making small shifts in your environment to liberate yourself from constant busyness and distraction. A must-read for anyone who has ever thought, If only there were more hours in the day..., Make Time will help you stop passively reacting to the demands of the modern world and start intentionally making time for the things that matter. |

| your dork: Valued Oasis Ranjeet Prasad, Every book requires an introduction, much like a movie trailer sets the stage for what’s to come. It’s crucial to inform your readers about the essence of the book through this introductory section. This work is my intellectual property, a reflection of my thoughts and insights. I have not sought external assistance in crafting this book; rather, I have drawn inspiration solely from nature, observing and learning from its wonders. This book comprises four chapters. In the first chapter, I will explore the complexities of life and its myriad issues, using abstract illustrations to enhance your understanding of this intricate topic. Life is an expansive subject that cannot be fully encapsulated in one discussion, so I will focus on a select few of its many facets. The second chapter explores the concept of love by drawing parallels with abstract ideas, which enhance our understanding of love's true essence. These analogies illuminate the depth of love, guiding us to genuinely love someone with heartfelt emotion and unwavering commitment, akin to the warmth of the sun. In the third chapter, the focus shifts to women, highlighting the significance of their menstrual cycles and the profound beauty of motherhood. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing and valuing girls equally in all aspects of life. The fourth chapter delves into my heartfelt expression of love for my partner, highlighting the depth of my feelings for her and the significance she holds in my life. I have poured my heart out, crafting a collection of love letters that capture the essence of my emotions. This chapter serves as a cherished Valentine's moment, where I articulate the profound affection I have for her. To me, she embodies purity, much like the sacred Ganges River. Throughout every stage of my life—past, present, and future—her place in my heart remains steadfast and genuine. In this book, I share my joys, sorrows, smiles, and even the tears that fall like rain, all while feeling her absence acutely in every moment. This book offers you a deeper insight into the everyday experiences we encounter in life. It will provide you with the wisdom to see things clearly and understand their true essence. As you read, you'll find yourself imagining and visualizing the concepts presented. I trust that you will discover this book to be both meaningful and beneficial for your personal growth. As you embark on your journey to becoming a more insightful reader, you will learn to apply these valuable lessons in your own life. This book explores the themes of life, love, and the vital role of women, highlighting how essential their presence is in our world. Life is not merely a challenge viewed through our individual lenses; it becomes richer when we connect those perspectives with the abstract elements around us. A closer look reveals that there is more to life than meets the eye. Love transcends the mere connection of two hearts; it embodies the universal essence of love that permeates the cosmos. When you can perceive the pain, suffering, affection, and kindness in both words and actions, love can truly flourish. In this book, I pen a heartfelt letter to my beautiful, divine partner, articulating the depth of my feelings for her. Ultimately, this work is a reflection of my daily observations during moments of leisure spent with my captivating partner. It serves as a tribute to her true essence, which lives within me. This book is designed for anyone eager to gain a deeper understanding of love. If you perceive love through abstract concepts, it indicates that you are honing your intuition through emotions, observations, experiences, and the time spent with your partner—not just to comprehend one another. Ultimately, transforming these moments into cherished memories is the driving force behind all my writings. This book serves as a self-improvement guide, enhancing your insights into life, love, and the significance of women. Join me on this journey to connect with your inner self and illuminate your intellect, allowing you to thrive in a chaotic world with a clearer perspective. |

| your dork: The Thrill of the Grass W. P. Kinsella, 2017-09-17 From the author of Shoeless Joe—the basis for the film Field of Dreams—come baseball stories that capture the magic and wonder of the game. No one can write about baseball with the same brilliant combination of mysticism and realism as W. P. Kinsella. Lovers of the game and lovers of fine writing will thrill at the range and depth of the eleven stories that make up this collection. From the magical conspiracy of the title story, to the celestial prediction in “The Last Pennant Before Armageddon,” to the desolation of “The Baseball Spur,” Kinsella explores the world of baseball and makes it, miraculously, a microcosm of the human condition. Praise for W. P. Kinsella’s The Dixon Cornbelt League and Other Baseball Stories “[Kinsella] defines a world in which magic and reality combine to make us laugh and think about the perceptions we take for granted.” —The New York Times “His short stories about baseball are wistful things of beauty which serve to remind us how the game should feel—the innate glory of a diamond etched in the minds of Americans.” —Calgary Sun “[Kinsella] uses baseball . . . As a familiar starting place for exploring, with pinpoint control, the human psyche.” —Booklist “Stories that read like lightning and tantalize the reader with fascinating scenarios.” —Publishers Weekly |

How to Collaborate focuses readers on their future successes, encouraging them to unlock their own out-of-the-box thinking to realize their individual strengths and talents. Written with humility and a true desire to help fellow business owners, the author demonstrates both her love and deep understanding of the collaborative model. This book is one of those destined to sport dog-eared pages, highlighted passages, and written-in margins; in fact, the author recommends readers do so. This handbook isn’t meant to collect dust on a shelf, but to accompany the reader on their business journey, inspiring them to collaborate for increased profits, enhanced relationships, and fresh enthusiasm. Unusual in a business book, How to Collaborate is lively and demonstrates a deep sense of humour, each of which contribute to it being an enjoyable, while informative, read. Throughout its pages, the author’s life attitude rings out: “Remember to have fun, 'cause if you aren’t having fun, why are you doing it?” |
| your dork: Drop Dead, Gorgeous MaryJanice Davidson, 2010-12-01 Fast. Powerful. Deadly. With bitchin' highlights. Ah, weddings--every single woman's reminder that she'll probably die alone, covered in cat hair and dressed in unflattering sweatpants. And as far as bad wedding experiences go, my friend Stacy's could take the cake. 1) I'm dateless 2) I'm a bridesmaid, and 3) Someone just attempted to whack the groom in the middle of the ceremony. Whoa. . .hang on. Anyone who tries to ruin a girlfriend's big day by bumping off her true love will have to go through me first. So now I, assistant hairdresser Jenny Branch, am helping to hunt down a real-life bad guy, and the prime suspect is Kevin Stone, who claims to be working undercover for a group called Covert Ops Protection. Riiiight. All of this is hard to believe--especially the way this unbelievably sexy villain/double agent/whatever Kevin is makes every (and I mean every) nerve-ending tingle the second he comes into view. . . Praise for MaryJanice Davidson Unwavering in her humor and saucy, yet realistic, with the sex.--Romantic Times |
