Digitmovies releases for the first time on CD as volume XVII of the series dedicated to the Italian Peplum soundtracks the OSTs by Francesco de Masi from the following movies: "Maciste nelle miniere di Re Salomone (aka "Samson in King Solomon's Mines") directed in 1964 by Piero Regnoli and starring Reg Park, one of the most famous faces of of the Italian Peplum as the mighty Maciste, and in supporting roles Wandisa Guida, Eleonora Bianchi, Nino Persello, Bruno Scipioni, Carlo Tamberlani, Bruno Piergentili, Loris Loddi. The story is placed in Africa: King Namar has built a temple in the place where once the fabulous King Solomon's mines did exist. Some nobles of the kingdom, thirsty for power and money, succeed in overthrowing the sovereign with a coup d'état and in converting the temple back into mines. They force all the population to work into the mines as slaves. Maciste (Park) is informed about the situation and he decides to solve it by overthrowing the tyrants and restoring the former sovereign on the throne."La rivolta delle gladiatrici" (aka "The Arena") directed in 1974 by Steve Carver and it seems also by Joe D'Amato (uncredited), produced by Roger Corman and Mark Damon, edited by John Carver and Joe Dante who ten years later would direct that cult movie called "Gremlins" and with a cast of famous faces like Margareth Markov, Lucretia Love, Pam Grier (the queen ofthe black exploitation), Rosalba Neri, Maria Pia Conte, Mimmo Palmara, Pietro Torrisi. In the land of Gallia the high priestess Bodicia is captured with other girls by Roman soldiers. At the same time a black dancer called Mamawi is captured. The girls are led to Italy and sold as slaves to sexually satisfy the gladiators. Mamawi unleashes a brawl in the kitchen and the shady Timarcus decides to let the girls fight in the arena, with the purpose to reawaken the interest of the population in the fights. The surviving girls are persuaded by Mamawi and Bodicia to escape. Among the female gladiators a revolt explodes which will lead them to freedom. "Il figlio dello sceicco" (aka "Kerim, Son of the Sheik") directed in 1962 by Mario Costa and starring Gordon Scott, Cristina Gaioni, Moira Orfei, Alberto Farnese, Jany Clair, Maria Grazia Spina, Gordon Mitchell. In Egypt of the 19th century B.C. The tyrant Omar (Farnese) uses an "iron fist" against the inhabitants of the province whose governor he is. Kerim (Scott), the son of the sheikh, is fighting to defend the stakes of the weakest ones. The unforgettable composer and conductor Francesco de Masi has written three orchestral scores which appear on CD for the very first time and we must thank our dear friends at Beat Records that this project could finally see the light of day. Sadly the complete session mastertapes did not survive until today and so for this record we had to use the mastertapes assembled for the original long-playing records produced by Beat Record as collector's limited edition in the mid-80s ("Maciste nelle miniere di Re Salomone" and "La rivolta delle gladiatrici" on LP CR 12 and "Il figlio dello sceicco" on LP CR 14).The biggest discovery was really made during the production of this CD (71:06) : The mastertapes with the LP mock-ups issued during the '80s were in mono, but full stereo copies of the mastertapes were discovered and saw the light of day for the first time now since the recording session times! From the OST of "Maciste nelle miniere di Re Salomone" five tracks have been selected: de Masi has written mysterious and dramatic music (Tr.1, Tr.2) and themes that evoke the superhuman power of the hero Maciste (Tr.3, Tr.5). from the OST of "La rivolta delle gladiatrici" seven selections appear here which alternate heroic music (Tr.6) with battle themes (Tr.7, Tr.9, Tr.10) and music with a sacred flavour and choir (Tr.8). from the OST of "Il figlio dello sceicco" fifteen tracks have been selected which take the listener into an exotic dimension introduced in Tr.13. de Masi has created several tracks for battle scenes (Tr.14, Tr.15, Tr.16) and mysterious ones (Tr.19) as well as delicate love theme.

Presentations with the audience in mind
Format: Paperback
I bought this hoping it would be a guide to creating Big-3 Consulting-style slides with fancy diagrams and eye-catching graphic design. That is not what this book is. Instead, this book is about how to tell a story with slides, using the framework of a five act drama. With this method forcing you to focus on who your audience is, what they need to know, and how much time you have to tell them (as opposed to trying to shoehorn everything you know about a subject into your pitch) you end up with a presentation that finishes on time for intelligent questions from an engaged audience.
Since buying the book I have given several well-received presentations using precisely that technique. With no words on screen there is no temptation to just read the bullet points, and the audience cannot think ahead of you and must instead listen to what you're saying. You have to know your material to use this method, but when you succeed your audience will be impressed with your knowledge of the subject matter. (If you're working in a group project and want to Blue Falcon a non-contributing teammate, try giving them a few of these slides to speak to.)
The recommended slide format is one picture and one headline per slide, with no bullet points at all. The book suggests creating Notes Pages with an outline of your talk as a handout, since the slides themselves don't stand alone. (And that's a good thing--visual aids are supposed to *augment* the presentation, not *be* the presentation.)
In conclusion, this book might not be for everyone, but it was exactly what I needed.

An outsider's view
Format: Paperback
When it comes to Cliff Atkinson's Beyond Bullet Points, I am a bit of an outsider. I don't read many computer books and, while I have worked with PowerPoint, my presentations are very simple. Since I admittedly use my share of bullet points in these presentations, I thought learning about an alternative approach would be useful. And while there are definite benefits to reading this book, it may not be perfect for everyone.
Many people use bullet points in their PowerPoint presentations; this can be a great way to organize thoughts, but Atkinson has a difference approach. Essentially, the Beyond Bullet Points method treats presentations as stories told in three "acts." Act One develops the story, Act Two develops the action and Act Three frames the resolution. Each act is broken down into scenes which provide the details. The first portion of the book explains how to work with each act; the second portion deals with the evolution from initial outline to final presentation.
This book assumes a certain amount of PowerPoint knowledge; if you want to learn about the application, this is not the place to start (on the other hand, you don't need to be a PowerPoint expert). One of the nicest things about Atkinson's approach is the way he allows presentations to be pared down to fit the time frame required: his method is designed best with a 45 minute presentation, but it can be easily compressed to a 15 minute or even 5 minute presentation. Another nice thing is that he has a website that readers can access that provides some helpful materials such as template documents.
On the other hand, Atkinson treats the issue of bullet points/no bullet points as something of a black-and-white issue. He doesn't really acknowledge that there may be a middle ground where bullet points should be used in certain situations, perhaps even in conjunction with his approach. I think it's more appropriate to view the Beyond Bullet Points as an alternative approach to PowerPoint presentations, not the ONLY approach.
Atkinson's writing style is straightforward, and like many computer books, a little dry. But as stated earlier, I am reading this book with something of an outsider's view. This is a good book, but Atkinson's inability to look beyond his own approach keeps it from being a five-star work. Nonetheless, if you do a lot of PowerPoint presentations, there is enough useful material in here to merit a read.

A Refreshing Approach to Presentations
Format: Paperback
I ran across this book while researching a college workshop on perfecting presentation, dealing with public speaking and effective use of PowerPoint. As one who has suffered through numerous electronic slides that did little or nothing to augment the speaker's efforts, I was delighted to see this fresh and innovative approach. I believe this process works best, however, when one's speech is primarily persuasive in nature. Although these ideas helped me set up a strong introduction and conclusion, in a recent lecture I resorted to bullet points for the material I felt the students had to master. Perhaps as I get more used to Atkinson's technique, I'll better about using it in lecture. However, the business applications seem quite worthwhile. My students' workshop presentations that used his techniques were highly engaging. I highly recommend this book and the supporting web site.

Simplistic and Inappropriate
Format: Paperback
I was hoping this book would provide insights into how to present complex information in a more comprehensible, useful format, using PowerPoint as the tool. Instead, the overall gist of this book is that presentations should be "dumbed down" as much as possible. The theme the author presents is that presentations should be story based. This is reasonable. However, the method the author recommends is that essentially *all* meaningful, complex (or, as the author prefers "boring") content be removed from the presentation. Presentations then become nothing more than catchy headlines and colorful graphics. All content should be in the presenter's notes (not typically to be provided). This is juvenile and useless and frankly reflects a complete lack of understanding of how presentations are made in a complex business environment.

On the right track
Format: Paperback
This book is a good introduction about how to use story-telling techniques in PowerPoint presentations. There are some good ideas here that you won't find in technical manuals. If you don't know film techniques these will be eye-opening. But the book could have been much stronger if it were to push these concepts to the next level. I saw a PowerPoint presentation with Andy Goodman, who teaches more or less the same thing, and his presentation nailed these concepts more cleanly than this book does. But again, this book is definitely worth checking out if you haven't studied storytelling before.
