Star Wars dominates the film world. The combined box office revenue of the Star Wars movies equates to over $10 billion, making it the second highest-grossing film franchise of all time. But this franchise is no blaster from the past. Its fantastically successful films have now been followed by multiple television series set in that same galaxy far, far away. The franchise’s flagship television series, and likely the firmest fan favorite for some time to come, is The Mandalorian.

"The unexamined life is not worth living," according to Socrates, but pursuing the examined life strikes many as daunting, unappealing and even unnecessary. Is philosophy important? Why do I need philosophy if I have the Bible? Aren't philosophers simply engaged in meaningless disputes that are irrelevant to everyday life? Mark Foreman addresses these and other questions in this "prelude" to the subject. Unlike a full introduction to philosophy, this book is a preliminary discussion that dispels misunderstandings and explains the rationale for engaging in philosophical reasoning.

Refusing to be civilized by Southern society or cowed by his drunken father's lashings, young Huckleberry Finn decides he has only one option left: fake his own death and hop a raft down the Mississippi River. Instead of carrying him far from trouble, though, Huck's raft delivers him to a place of moral uncertainty.

One of Mark Twain’s classic tales, a small band of boys in a medieval village make friends with a very real angel whose name is Satan. He assures the boys that he’s not The Satan, but his nephew. He looks like a boy of their own age, but his magical powers and unusual perspectives on morals and mankind leave the boys amazed and bewildered. Mark Twain never finished this story to his own satisfaction. In 1916, his biographer and friend Albert Bigelow Paine, with fellow author Frederick Duneka, added an evil astrologer and devised an ending, and published the version presented here.

Despite the ups and downs of his personal life and professional career—even in the face of deafness—Beethoven remained remarkably consistent in his most basic convictions about his art. This inner consistency, writes the music historian Mark Evan Bonds, provides the key to understanding the composer's life and works. Discarding tired myths about the composer, Bonds proposes a new way of listening to Beethoven by hearing his music as an expression of his entire self, not just his scowling self.

Was wäre, wenn du plötzlich eine Banknote im Wert von einer Million Pfund in der Tasche hättest – und sie nicht ausgeben dürftest? Doch statt Reichtum folgt eine schräge Achterbahnfahrt durch Gesellschaft, Gier und den Irrsinn des Anscheins. In bester Twain-Manier entfaltet sich eine humorvolle, clevere und zeitlose Satire, die zeigt, dass Geld nicht immer das ist, was es scheint.

Die Abenteuer von Tom Sawyer ist auch heute noch ein aktueller Klassiker der Jugendliteratur. Es ist mehr als eine typische Lausbubengeschichte.

With his trademark mirth and boundless charisma, actor Nick Offerman brought the loveable shenanigans of Twain's adolescent hero to life in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.

Not Finished Yet is a documentary-style podcast sharing powerful stories of people who reinvented their lives, careers, and businesses after 40. Each episode explores the moment everything changed — the redundancy, the risk, the decision to walk away, or the realisation that life needed a new direction. Through honest conversations and storytelling, we uncover how ordinary people built extraordinary second chapters. This is not about starting from scratch. It’s about starting again with experience. You're Not Finished Yet

This our weekly Sunday morning message from Westside Chapel in Portland, Oregon.

The year is 1984 and space shuttle astronaut Tom Cabot is about to reenter Earth's orbit—only to crash-land two hundred years into the future. His world is gone. In its place—the ruins of a civilization that made his century look primitive. Hovercars rust in the streets of shattered cities. Food replicators gather dust in Quick-Marts. Armies of autonomous killer droids still patrol the apocalyptic wreckage, somehow following orders from a world on another plane of existence.

Entangled Reality is a series of narrative essays exploring the hidden relational structures that allow order to emerge and endure. Drawing on science, history, philosophy, and theology, the series examines how trust, knowledge, and meaning intertwine across human institutions and living systems. entangledreality.substack.com
