Color

A Course in Mastering the Art of Mixing Colors

By: Betty Edwards

Millions of people have learned to draw using the methods of Dr. Betty Edwards's bestseller The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain. Now, much as artists progress from drawing to painting, Edwards moves from black-and-white into color. This much-awaited new guide distills the enormous existing knowledge about color theory into a practical method of working with color to produce harmonious combinations. Using techniques tested and honed in her five-day intensive color workshops, Edwards provides a basic understanding of how to see color, how to use it, and-for those involved in art, painting, or design-how to mix and combine hues. Including more than 125 color images and exercises that move from simple to challenging, this volume explains how to: see what is really there rather than what you "know" in your mind about colored objects perceive how light affects color, and how colors affect one another manipulate hue, value, and intensity of color and transform colors into their opposites balance color in still-life, landscape, figure, and portrait painting understand the psychology of color harmonize color in your surroundings While we recognize and treasure the beautiful use of color, reproducing what we see can be a challenge. Accessibly unweaving color's complexity, this must-have primer is destined to be an instant classic.

The Discourse Function of Inversion in English

By: Betty Birner

First published in 1997. This dissertation presents a discourse-functional account of English inversion, based on an empirical study of natural language data. The central finding is that inversion is subject to a pragmatic constraint on the information status of its constituents; specifically, the information represented by the preposed constituent must be at least as familiar within the discourse as is that represented by the postposed constituent.

The Abominations of the Obama-Nation

The Audacity of Ruthless Ambitions Vs. the Hope of God’S Assurance

By: Betty Sue Prollock

Some people use the poor, minorities, and special interest groups as an excuse to take away rights from others who tend to be wealthy, white, or Christian or all of the above. Betty Sue Prollock, a Christian and an American patriot, seeks to wake people up from their slumber and shine a spotlight on the truth: Were moving from a constitutional government founded on individual freedom to one that resembles an Islamic state. President Barack Hussein Obama Jr. and his followers, who are using the government to oppress non-victims in an effort to promote equality, must accept much of the blame. These power-hungry individuals will stop at nothing to advance their own agenda and take away the rights of the majority. Prollock argues that people in power are influencing and seducing the needy struggling with lifes challenges. She makes a convincing case that if the public doesnt act soon, our God-given rights will be replaced by government-given rights and The Abominations of the Obama-Nation.

Information Status and Noncanonical Word Order in English

By: Betty J. Birner,Gregory L. Ward

This work provides a comprehensive discourse-functional account of three classes of noncanonical constituent placement in English preposing, postposing, and argument reversal and shows how their interaction is accounted for in a principled and predictive way. In doing so, it details the variety of ways in which information can be 'given' or 'new' and shows how an understanding of this variety allows us to account for the distribution of these constructions in discourse. Moreover, the authors show that there exist broad and empirically verifiable functional correspondences within classes of syntactically similar constructions. Relying heavily on corpus data, the authors identify three interacting dimensions along which individual constructions may vary with respect to the pragmatic constraints to which they are sensitive: old vs. new information, relative vs. absolute familiarity, and discourse- vs. hearer-familiarity. They show that preposed position is reserved for information that is linked to the prior discourse by means of a contextually licensed partially-ordered set relationship; postposed position is reserved for information that is 'new' in one of a small number of distinct senses; and argument-reversing constructions require that the information represented by the preverbal constituent be at least as familiar within the discourse as that represented by the postverbal constituent. Within each of the three classes of constructions, individual constructions vary with respect to whether they are sensitive to familiarity within the discourse or (assumed) familiarity within the hearer's knowledge store. Thus, although the individual constructions in question are subject to distinct constraints, this work provides empirical evidence for the existence of strong correlations between sentence position and information status. The final chapter presents crosslinguistic data showing that these correlations are not limited to English.

Rachel Donelson Jackson

The First Lady Who Never Was

By: Betty Boles Ellison

Rachel Jackson, wife of President Andrew Jackson, never wanted to be First Lady and tried to dissuade her husband from his political ambitions. Yet she publicly supported his political advancement and was the first wife of a presidential candidate to take to the campaign trail. Privy to his political decisions, she offered valued counsel, and Jackson sometimes regretted not taking her advice. Denied a traditional education by her father, Rachel's innate business savvy made the Jacksons' Tennessee plantation and businesses profitable during her husband's continual absences. This biography chronicles the life of a First Lady who rebelled against 19th-century constraints on women, overcame personal tragedies to become an inspirational figure of persistence and strength, and found herself at the center of one of the vilest presidential smear campaigns in history.

Rosebud Roses

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Rosebud Roses

By: Betty Thrasher

As a girl in Rosebud, Texas, Betty Thrasher learned about style and presentation at an early age. From the floor of her parents small-town department store, Betty had a view of the comings and goings of all walks of life. Former model and seamstress aunts, as well as worldly neighbors, took young Betty under their wings. Her brother joined the US Air Force and was written into history books as a sharp-dressed Top Gun, a testament to the upbringing in Rosebud. The Thrashers years in Gatesville brought the first incarnation of Bettys boutique, the RoseBud, which would go on to draw stylish shoppers from around the state when it moved to its permanent home in Temple. The RoseBud catered to professionals, politicians, and the medical community of Scott & White. After selling her business, Betty focused on charity work, staging numerous fashion shows and raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for S&W. The mayor of Temple declared two separate Betty Thrasher Days, and first lady Anita Perry presented Betty with the Yellow Rose of Texas Award. In her memoir, Betty dispenses fashion and beauty advice while remembering all the people she met along her journey. Combined with her business acumen and photographic memories of her childhood playmates, Rosebud Roses is a memorable read for uptown and small-town folks alike.

This book is about healthy eating. I have been an anesthesia provider in the health care industry for 36 years, and have seen many patients with various health conditions caused by faulty diet habits. Realizing that most people continue to eat the same way they were reared , unless someone provides a easy way for the first steps of healthy eating. It is my intent that this publication will help someone become more aware of their bodies and treat them like the sacred vessel they are. I enjoy giving seminars on better living to help inform others about our magnificent body and how to keep it. I also enjoy giving cooking demonstrations and concluding with a tasting party. Many people are so surprised at how tasty food really is.

From Jamestown to Texas

A History of Some Early Pioneers of Austin County

By: Betty Smith Meischen

The rugged character and indomitable spirit of the early pioneers of Stephen F. Austins Texas colony had their roots in a turbulent, distant past. From the early 1600s, their courageous ancestors had pushed westward, leaving the European shores to carve out a new nation from the wilderness. They fled religious and political oppression in search of a better life in which freedom was of supreme importance. Many came with tales of their former struggles in Londonderry, Ireland during the great siege, of terrible massacres and clan rivalries in the times of William Wallace and Robert the Bruce, King of Scotland. They vividly remembered the tribulations of Martin Luther and the deadly religious split with the Catholic Church. More recently, memories of their parents participation in the American Revolution, of dramatic, true life scenes such as depicted in the movie The Patriot filled their minds, their fathers having ridden along side of the wily Swamp Fox, Francis Marion. These pioneers associated themselves with men like Travis, Crockett, Houston and Andrew Jackson. Many of these early trailblazers were Scots-Irish and German immigrants. They were on a westward trek to grasp a special prize, to seal Americas Manifest Destiny. And that prize they sought was Texas. From Jamestown to Texas is the story of these intrepid pioneers and their ancestors who cleared and farmed the land, who fought the Indians, battled the elements, and carved out this wonderful country that we have today.

Self-Taught, Outsider and Folk Art

A Guide to American Artists, Locations and Resources, 3d ed.

By: Betty-Carol Sellen

Much has changed in the world of self-taught art since the millennium. Many of the recognized "masters" have died and new artists have emerged. Many galleries have closed but few new ones have opened, as artists and dealers increasingly sell through websites and social media. The growth and popularity of auction houses have altered the relationship between artists and collectors. In its third edition, this book provides updated information on artists, galleries, museums, auctions, organizations and publications for both experienced and aspiring collectors of self-taught, outsider and folk art. Gallery and museum entries are organized geographically and alphabetically by state and city.

The Psychic Handbook

By: Betty F. Balcombe

A psychic healer, tells you what it's like to be psychic. Balcombe's visualization and meditation techniques help you gain comfort with-and control of-your psychic powers. She describes how to use divination, the tarot, pendulums, dowsing rods, dreams and symbols, premonitions, automatic writing, and other techniques to develop psychic ability. You also learn how to see a person's aura to determine health or emotional conditions, and how to clear the aura of disturbances. The greatest gift a psychic can cultivate is the ability to heal, and Balcombe discusses this in detail; how to use touch, "laser,"and absent healing, as well as spirit energy group healing, and the value of crystal healing. She relates her belief in past lives as pockets of experience that add to our soul's wisdom and knowledge. Balcombe's book helps us gain spiritual awareness and a clearer understanding of life's purpose.

Power, Politics, and Society

An Introduction to Political Sociology

By: Betty Dobratz,Lisa Waldner,Timothy Buzzell

Power, Politics and Society: An Introduction to Political Sociology discusses how sociologists have organized the study of politics into conceptual frameworks, and how each of these frameworks foster a sociological perspective on power and politics in society. This includes discussing how these frameworks can be applied to understanding current issues and other "real life" aspects of politics. This second edition incorporates new material on cultural divides in American politics, emerging roles for the state, the ongoing effects of the Great Recession and recovery, the 2016 election, social media, and the various policies introduced during the Trump administration and how they affect people’s lives.
