Maybe Lap Dancing for Mommy is a graphic novel, or maybe it's a collection of illustrated essays. However you'd describe it, Erika Lopez's narratives are funny and smart and make you cringe in the way of the best self-deprecating humor. The lesbian characters that lurch through Lap Dancing for Mommy include a pissed-off ex-lover, an ingenious and world-class dildo collector, and a very hairy half-Puerto Rican, half-white girl. Edgier than Nicole Hollander, nastier than Alison Bechdel, Lopez is a radical cartoonist who makes you laugh at and be glad you're not the wild, wonderful characters she creates.

Hilarious!.......2003-09-03

Erika Lopez is a very funny woman. She says the things that we only think about and never say aloud. This book is short and can be read in an hour, but it's really funny! I highly reccomend this book if you enjoy almost peeing your pants with laughter.

Die Hard Flaming Iguana Fan Falls Hard Into Mommy's Lap.......2001-01-29

I love Erika Lopez. She seriously has me going- men, do I really need them, and why?! Any love life is fraught with perils and inconsistencies, and ego-deflating self-doubts, and "Lap Dancing For Mommy" pokes some serious phallic phun at that. It is more centered on visual humor, to some extent, falling back on graphic yet stimulating cartoons. I was somewhat disappointed at the brevity of the book; I was left wanting more, more, more! But what was there, especially towards the end with the longer essays, was really nice.

Erika Lopez at her wacky prime!.......1999-05-28

I picked up this book after searching and searching for it. I'd already read They Call Me Mad Dog! and Flaming Iguanas, and loved both. Anyone who's read her should read this; this collection of stories and comics cannot be labeled. It's insane, and albeit, a little uneven. But hey - parts of it are more than worth it, like Erika's personal quest for guy-guy porn, and her charmingly witty quest for acceptance as a Puerto Rican bisexual. It's completely worth reading, but let me simply warn you that you may want to ease into this book. It's not for the faint of heart.

Book Description

Now in paperback, Anthropology and the Dance is a lively, controversial examination and discussion of theories of dance by the pioneer of the anthropology of human movement. Drid Williams's definitive text is explicitly intended for graduate students in anthropology faced with the wide spectrum of theories of human movement, including the dance, sign language, martial arts, and rituals. With its groundbreaking approach to this previously unexamined field, however, Anthropology and the Dance brings the study of human movement to readers in fields such as philosophy, psychology, sociology, ethnomusicology, library science, physical education, history, music, linguistics, dance, and dance education.

Williams examines subjects ranging from Aboriginal and African dances to the Royal Ballet, and makes a compelling case for moving beyond the Western view of the dance as mere entertainment, locating human movement firmly and irrefutably within the sphere of serious study.

Book Description

This book aims to clear some of the intellectual underbrush that tends to accumulate in neglected fields of academic study, and it will be especially useful to people who are interested in the anthropology of dance and human movement.

Covers all the bases.......2005-10-21

As a CPA I found this book to be completely accurate and recommend it to all my clients. No book can be all things to all businesses, but this comes close.

Not much better than online help.......2005-09-06

I ended up looking for another book after receiving this book. It didn't seem to answer any of the specific questions I had regarding Quick books - It seemed to be more of a hardcopy version of the help function online which was a big disappointment. I would look at the online help in the software and if it works for you, don't waste your money on this.

Product Description

Here for the first time are Filipino and Filipino American writers telling their lives in their own words. Here are stories of passion and betrayal, home and exile, the politics of the self and a nation in search of itself. Together, these works provide a deeper image of the Philippines and ultimately, a vivid perspective of America as well.

A Baha'i Perspective.......2007-02-25

This neglects to connect the image of Hagar and Ishmael in the wilderness, (in Genesis) with the concept that the Woman in Revelation 12 may represent the religion of Muhammad that sprang from the Ishmaelites. In one the earth brings forth water, in the other, it takes it in.
Moreover, the twelve stars of her crown have been interpreted as the 12 Imams of the Shí'ih, the sun with which she is clothed, the kingdom of Persia, where her Child, the Promised Qa'im of the House of Muhammad arose in 1844, which is 1260 AH. The wilderness is Arabia, where the Point of Adoration was moved from Jerusalem (and has been moved again).
The moon is the Ottoman Sultanate.
The Climax of the conflict is when the Dragon, representing the names of the Umayyad Caliphs, who were always trying to kill the descendants of the Prophet, is defeated by "Archangel Michael" who is believed by Baha'is to be Bahá'u'lláh, the Prophetic Founder. The seven heads are the dominions they ruled.
So the time, place and lineage of the Promised One is foretold, but far be it for most Christians to accept His Holiness Muhammad, let alone the Messiah of Islam.

Great, but............2002-09-05

Combines history with the apparitions of Mary giving incite to the messages given and the reasons for her appearance. As a Catholic I feel better informed about Mary. A book hard to put down once opened.

However a lot must taken with a grain of salt. Some of the events/person he focuses on are not approved by the church if not banned. Plus it would turn off any non-Catholic with his "the Catholic church is the only True church". Many views are that of a very conservative Catholic. Much is written from the defence of the church- not mentioning the many things the church has inflicted on the world and why people fell away. However the chuch has been bashed a lot over the years and its a nice change to see a defence.

I'm surprised he calls himself a biologist and chemist because he calls many recent inventions such as the internet and the computer as the root cause of the many evils of todays world. Plus he has no love for Darwin, which any biologist has to give credit for many scientific advances today, plus the Pope even recognizes the great quantities of scientific proof (for creation of everything but the soul). He forgets that many of todays tools are double edged tools and the use is determined by the person using it.

You read his version of the anti-Christ and you wonder if we the U.S. are it.

The Woman and the Dragon: Apparitions of Mary........2002-06-28

David Michael Lindsey has my gratitude for such an indepth study of the Blessed Virgin's historical apparitions. I have been a serious student of her life, work, and apparitions. Yet, Michael has allowed me to learn much more concerning real history in the making of the world for which I now have a much clearer perception of Her Work in the interest of humanity.

To awaken to one's own blindness, is a sad thing.

Michael's excellent literary skills makes for clarity in understanding what has not been understood. Many important details have come to light without which it is difficult to understand Her. It is a book you cannot put down at day's end.

Her Warnings, Our Struggles, and Inspiration.......2001-02-07

Upon beginning this book I had anticipated information regards to the apparitions alone. Yet, the author has done extensive research in completing this wonderful literature which includes much, much more. I cried as I read the struggles of all the human races and Christianity; and, again because of Mary's enormous love to warn us of such atrocities. I have read many other Marian books and, this is among the elite of those titles. I would recomend The Woman and the Dragon to those who are seeking information about our Blessed Mother, and how her love for us exists for all time.

Book Description

A posthumous collection of Bari's greatest and most poignant speeches and actions. From her hospital bed just days after she was bombed; from the front lines of the timber wars, as well as on radio and in the lecture halls of universities. Her wit, humor, class-consciousness and organizing shine through on this release. She will be sorely missed, but in the words of her, and many others...don't mourn, organize!
