Learning German
By
German is one of the world's most vital languages, with Germany, Austria, and Switzerland being top travel destinations, and German literature, philosophy, science, music, and industry being hallmarks of European civilization. Therefore, learning German should be near the top of everyone's list of foreign languages worth studying. Traditionally, the problem for English speakers has been German grammar, with its wealth of case endings and irregular forms. But grammar always has an internal logic, which an inspired teacher can convey. In Learning German: A Journey through Language and Culture, Professor James Pfrehm of Ithaca College does this with unrivaled skill, humor, and success, making learning German positively fun. Teaching all the skills needed to understand and speak basic German, Professor Pfrehm's 30 half-hour lessons are perfect preparation for a trip to German-speaking lands, since he focuses on major tourist attractions, along with the vocabulary of daily life and advice on customs that may trip up the unwary.

Norman
By
Norman Oppenheimer (Richard Gere) lives a lonely life in the margins of New York City power and money. Norman strives to be everyone's friend, but his incessant networking leads him nowhere. Norman ends up befriending a young but charismatic politician Micha Eshel (Lior Ashkenazi) at a low point in his life. Three years later, the politician becomes an influential world leader. Flush with his newfound feeling of success, Norman attempts to use Eshel's name to leverage his biggest deal ever: a series of quid pro quo transactions linking the Prime Minister to Norman's nephew (Michael Sheen) , a rabbi (Steve Buscemi) , a mogul (Harris Yulin) , his assistant (Dan Stevens) , and a treasury official from the Ivory Coast. Norman's kaleidoscopic plans soon go awry, creating the potential for an international catastrophe he must struggle to prevent. The new film by Academy Award nominated director Joseph Cedar ("Footnote") is a comic and compassionate drama of a little man whose downfall is rooted in a human frailty all too easy to forgive - a need to matter.
