In The British Bloke Decoded, writer, comedian and regular bloke, Geoff Norcott peels back the layers of blokedom, revealing the truth behind the sometimes inexplicable behaviour of Britain's husbands, dads and brothers. Based on 46 years of field research and almost scientific insights, Geoff digs deep into subjects as wide as: the value of Banter, the surprising roots of Mansplaining, the near impossibility of getting blokes to send birthday cards, and whether there could be a medal system for Hoovering.

There is spirit of slumber and sleepiness that is overtaking the world. And this causes you to fold your hands, and even stop praying to God; and causes you to close your eyes, and stop reading the word of God; and causes you to rest and stop being busy for God.

È giunto il momento di smontare uno dei luoghi comuni più duraturo della storia repubblicana, ovvero quello secondo il quale il fascismo è morto e sepolto da fine aprile 1945. Già nel secondo dopoguerra, infatti, la dottrina della continuità dello Stato riportò ai vertici di prefetture e polizia personaggi di schietta fede fascista. Poi si è permessa la ricostituzione di un partito fascista come il Movimento sociale italiano che, tra manganello e doppiopetto, ha avuto un ruolo negli scontri di piazza e ha contribuito perfino all’elezione di presidenti della Repubblica (da Antonio Segni a Giovanni Leone).

Igor ist ein Igelschweinchen - halb Igel, halb Meerschweinchen. Wenn er wütend wird, sticht Igor mit seinen Stacheln, aber er hat auch ein weiche Seite. In einer verzauberten Nacht im Wald freundet er sich mit der Igelfrau und anderen Tieren an und seine Stacheln sind plötzlich nicht mehr wichtig. Die legendäre Stimme von Achim Höppner (Gandalf/Herr der Ringe) führt Igor durch einen Reigen traditioneller Kinderlieder, gesungen vom Kinderchor des Gärtnerplatz-Theaters München.

Omarm de Japanse leer van de onvolmaaktheid. Japanners zijn al eeuwen bekend met de filosofie van wabi sabi, dat zoiets betekent als: niets of niemand is volmaakt, voltooid of eeuwig. Je bereikt pas geluk door zaken te aanvaarden zoals ze zijn – bijvoorbeeld door je verbonden te voelen met de natuur, of een gevoel van rust te ervaren dat je overkomt bij een mooie zonsondergang aan zee.

Dieses Buch will den Leser einen neuen Blick auf die Großen Arkana des Tarot werfen lassen und ihn auch anleiten, einen Weg des inneren Wachstums und der Bewusstwerdung zu gehen. Die Großen Arkana zeigen uns den Weg zum Erwachen und zum Glück. Das mag zu vollmundig klingen, aber diese Lehren sind ganz spezifisch und revolutionär, wenn wir sie verstehen. Sie reden nicht von spirituellen Allgemeinplätzen, wie sie manchmal im New Age zusammengerührt wurden, sondern weisen uns auf den schmalen Pfad hin, den nur wenige finden.

Da sempre misuriamo il mondo. Per conoscerlo ed esplorarlo, per viverci, per interagire con i nostri simili. L'umanità misura per conoscere il passato, comprendere il presente, progettare il futuro. Ci sono voluti però millenni perché due rivoluzioni, quella scientifica iniziata con Galileo e quella francese, avviassero il percorso per rendere il sistema di misura condiviso e non più basato su deperibili artefatti umani, ma su elementi invariabili e universali della natura.

Gli spaccapietre cinesi, i braccianti macedoni, le badanti ucraine, i rider africani, i bengalesi nei cantieri navali, gli allevatori sikh. Da una parte la necessità delle aziende di competere a livello globale sui mercati, dall’altra la rivoluzione digitale, da un’altra ancora la possibilità di usufruire di servizi e merci a prezzi bassi ci portano a nuove forme di schiavismo, più sottili, più opache, talvolta legalizzate.

Il mito delle origini è quello che ci fa pensare che esista un punto magico della storia in cui tutto prende forma, tutto comincia e tutto si spiega; il punto in cui si cela l'intimo segreto della nostra identità. Ma perché quello delle origini è solo un mito? Il fatto è che le origini, di per sé, spiegano poco: l'identità nasce dalla storia, da come quelle origini si sviluppano, crescono, cambiano attraverso incontri e incroci spesso imprevedibili.

In the late 1960s, Patsy Channing, a stunningly beautiful young woman, was suspended from the venerable Mississippi State College for Women for breach of conduct. The resulting scandal reached all the way to the Columbus courthouse, and the press ate it up. But Patsy's story starts long before that, living with a preoccupied and troubled mother in Memphis, Tennessee. Music becomes her ticket out and a vehicle for the one thing she covets most—a chance to be crowned Miss America. In Confessions of a Southern Beauty Queen, Julie Hines Mabus provides a peek into that world.
