GrubHub founder Mike Evans reveals the inside story of how he grew a multibillion-dollar behemoth that changed the way we eat. Hungry and tired one night, Mike wanted a pizza, but getting a pizza delivered was a pain in the neck. He didn’t want to call a million restaurants to see what was open. So, as an avid coder, he created GrubHub in his spare bedroom to figure out who delivered to his apartment. Then, armed with a $140 check from his first customer and ignoring his crushing college debt, he quit his job. Over the next decade, Mike grew his little delivery guide into the world’s premier online ordering website. In doing so, he entered the company of an elite few entrepreneurs to take a startup from an idea all the way to an IPO.\nGrubHub’s journey from Mike’s bedroom to Wall Street doesn’t fit into how business schools teach entrepreneurship. In Hangry, he details step-by-step the grind of building an innovative business, with each chapter including sharp lessons for entrepreneurs and startups that Mike learned on the fly as he piloted GrubHub by the seat of his pants. Hangry reveals a decade of eighty-hour work weeks, detailed steps of how Mike garnered his first customers, his hunt for financing dollars, cliffhanger acquisitions, the near collapse of his marriage, a brutally difficult merger, and a pair of tumultuous quit/unquit moments, all to steer the company to become one of the most successful startups in the world. With a razor-sharp wit, Mike reveals hard-won truths about how startups succeed—and even harder-won truths about how startups fail.\nShocking everyone, at the pinnacle of startup success, Mike leaves it all behind, quitting the company he started to bike across the United States in search of balance. But eventually, the grand vistas of America bring the lessons of the past into focus, driving the realization that for entrepreneurs a hunger for success doesn’t end, and he starts another company, even more ambitious than the first.

The End of the Age is about what the Bible teaches about the great tribulation and the return of Jesus Christ. Both the Old and New Testaments are clear that there is a time of great distress and tribulation that will come at the end of this present age. This time of distress will be put to an end by the Lord Jesus Christ when he returns to the earth. The End of the Age discusses several passages from both the Old and New Testaments. Particular attention is given to the book of Revelation. Many of the visions and prophecies in Revelation pertain to the time of the great tribulation. The End of the Age explains the identities of: the two witnesses in Revelation 11, the woman in Revelation 12, the two beasts in Revelation 13, and the beast and the harlot in Revelation 17. The image of the beast who comes up out of the sea and the meaning of the number of the beast (666) are also explained. There is also a discussion on the seals, trumpets and bowls.

From custom-designed posters for provincial ballrooms in the late ‘50s to the computer-generated images of today, rock music illustration has reflected — and influenced — crucial changes in popular visual art. With classic examples (some unseen for many years) of key styles, including pop art, psychedelic illustration, punk "do-it-yourself," and digital imaging, the book documents the stunning visual style of British rock from the era of the Beatles and Rolling Stones to the present-day art of the Arctic Monkeys, Coldplay, and the Kaiser Chiefs. The book is arranged chronologically, and by genre within chapters, with art by both uncredited artists and internationally known designers and design groups, from Michael English, The Fool, and Alan Aldridge of ‘60s fame to Hipgnosis in the ‘70s, Central Station Design and 8vo in the ‘80s, and Dtylorouge and Designers' Republic in the ‘90s. Special features in each chapter focus on a particularly influential designer relevant to the period being covered, while the introduction provides an overview of the history of rock graphic design, both in Britain and internationally.

Celebrating a half century of design in posters, flyers and advertising ephemera, The Art of British Rock highlights the UK’s distinct contribution to rock’n’roll graphics. From custom designed posters for provincial ballrooms in the late 50s to the computer-generated images of today, rock music illustration has reflected – and influenced – crucial changes in popular visual art. With classic examples (some unseen for many years) of key styles including pop art, psychedelic illustration, punk 'do-it-yourself' and digital imaging, the book documents the stunning visual style of British rock from the era of the Beatles and Rolling Stones to the present-day art of indie guitar bands, cutting edge soloists and contemporary clubland. Arranged chronologically, The Art of British Rock features more than 350 posters ranging from the work of anonymous artists to internationally acclaimed designers including the Hapshash group in the 60s, Hipgnosis and Barney Bubbles in the 70s, and Malcolm Garrett, Peter Saville and Vaughan Oliver in the 80s and beyond. All are the subject of special features within each chapter. Concluding with the mix of retro and state-of-the-art design that has characterized rock poster illustration in the first decade of the 21st century, this is a unique account of more than 50 years of British rock’n’roll art.

Rhythm is something you either have or don't have, but when you have it, you have it all over." -Elvis Presley * To commemorate the 30th anniversary of Elvis Presley's death on August 16, 2007, music historian Mike Evans introduces direct quotes from Presley-culled from the few rare interviews given during Presley's lifetime-and stylizes them amid a backdrop of black-and-white iconic images. Pairing Elvis's own words with a collection of striking rare photos, this is one of the only Presley titles essentially written by the King himself. * Of the myriad Elvis-related books available, this title is exceptionally different-presenting a reflective Presley through his own words.
