The main question this research asks is ‘How do we cultivate meaningful connection and find our way back to ourselves and each other?’ 30 of them are gone through in the HBO Special with stories and media clips. In Atlas of the Heart, Brene Brown and her team teach us about 87 different emotions. Based on her book of the same name, this is a five episode special that does a deep dive into human emotions, with a specific focus on the interactions between each other in relationships (work, friendships, romantic, and otherwise). This Brene Brown: Atlas of the Heart HBO Max special is the culmination of all of the research and studies of Brene and her team. Some swear words and trauma are discussed openly. This is designed for older viewers and the language does reflect this. So, younger viewers may need guidance and processing help. Warnings: This is a fairly deep, psychological conversation.

Or put another way, I get cross with myself because I forget to do things or do some actions more than I should and no matter how I try to make what seem to be quite monumental changes I never quite seem to get to grips with the concepts. Other people, of course, are sorely afflicted by some dreadful flaws which they could so easily correct, if only they would make just a little bit of effort. You still have those odd, quirky, even loveable (to you) habits that seem to annoy other people. ![]() Go on, admit it - you're not quite perfect. Summary: Small changes which you can make to help you achieve your goals and which lead on to bigger things. ![]() Đất Rừng Phương Nam by Đoàn Giỏi5/21/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Such proximity to the grassroots and their problems has created a deep connection between me and the environmental issues of the Mekong Delta and motivated me to delve into the environment and development sphere. The farmers told me their first recognition of salinity intrusion was in the taste of their regular cup of coffee, then followed the dry death of paddy fields and fruit orchards.Īt that point, I started to get a better sense of the impact of environmental change and its connection to agriculture-based livelihood which is extremely susceptible to the climate. ![]() The Winter-Spring of 2015-2016 was a tough time for people in my project areas when they unexpectedly encountered the highest level of salinity intrusion that has ever occurred. As such, not so long after graduation, I worked at a non-governmental organization in a project which focused on sustainable economic development, agriculture and community-based disaster risk management (CBDRM) in Vinh Long Province. I did not have much concern on environmental issues when I first took my bachelor’s degrees on business management and law but participating in a variety of volunteer work at university had been gradually building up my notion and interest in the concept of sustainable development. ![]() Air by Peter Adey5/21/2023 ![]() The conceit then is that evacuation is not simply bad, but that we must first wrestle and recover evacuation from its wider lexicon. ![]() In this paper I want to show how evacuation – the arts, logics, rationalities and technologies – the complex geographies of moving people out of the way - goes to the heart of how societies and states have learnt how to protect, but, to go further than that, it has also been a key way in which they have killed, persecuted, punished and separated peoples from their property, rights and freedoms. This, in the context of a Nazi geopolitics of territorial annexation, mass population movements, settlement planning and the economies of labour supply, really meant deportation, displacement and killing (sometimes by movement itself). In observing Adolf Eichmann’s disturbing rationalisations of the Nazi killing machine through the administration of ideas, bodies, practices, property and, ultimately, life, Hannah Arendt noticed the curious yet crucial slippage of terms perpetuated by the bureaucratisation of mobility, often named “Evacuation”.

In proximity to the sun, the first four planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, which are also known as the terrestrial planets. As the Sun began its infant life, the flat disc of gaseous and dusty material surrounding it slowly condensed and eventually formed eight planets, amongst them our home, the Earth. A young and bright burning new star, now called the Sun, was born from the death of an old star. Scientists believe that, over time, gravity began its unwavering, relentless work and pulled together a molecular cloud, known as a solar nebula, made of gas and dust - possibly deriving from an exploded star. In cosmology, the Nebular hypothesis (1) is the most widely accepted model for the formation and evolution of our solar system. To begin at the beginning, in the famous words of poet Dylan Thomas, we must go back 4.5 billion years and reach into a past and a darkness that is beyond our field of vision and knowledge. ![]() Nova, Vol. 1 by Dan Abnett5/21/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Item Location New York, United States Ships To United States, Australia, Canada, Albania, Argentina, Austria, Bahamas, Barbados, Belarus, Belgium, Belize, Bermuda, Bolivia, Bosnia and Herzegowina, Brazil, Bulgaria, Cayman Islands, Central African Republic, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Estonia, Falkland Islands, Faroe Islands, Finland, France, French Guiana, Germany, Gibraltar, Greece, Greenland, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Guatemala, Guyana, Haiti, Holy See (Vatican City State), Honduras, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Jamaica, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Malta, Martinique, Mexico, Moldova, Republic of, Monaco, Montserrat, Netherlands, Nicaragua, Norway, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russian Federation, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadin, San Marino, Saudi Arabia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, St. ![]() Survivor by jf gonzalez5/21/2023 ![]() ![]() When I first started working on Deadite Press I created a list of books I wanted to get the rights to and SURVIVOR was at the top of my list. My jaw literally dropped when I realized what was about to happen. She makes a deal to survive (hence the title) that is horrific and asks an amazing question to the read-what would you do to survive? It’s one of the greatest moral questions in all of horror fiction. Anyone who has read the book knows what I’m talking about. I was pushing around the cart and reading this horror story about a woman who is kidnapped to be in a snuff film when THAT scene happened. I was constantly checking out books and normally reading a novel a day while on the job. One of the nice parts of the job was that I could read while I pushed around the mail and there was a library two blocks away. I was living in Pittsburgh after college and was the mail-cart guy at a giant federal bank. I will never forget my first time reading SURVIVOR. ![]() ![]() For the month of October, I will be writing brief essays about my 31 favorite horror books. ![]() Crying for the moon mary walsh5/20/2023 ![]() ![]() When the company disbanded in 1992, she was soon placed in another television show co-created with Rick Mercer, Greg Thomey, and Andy Jones, This Hour Has 22 Minutes, in which she often played the infamous Marg Delahunty, the terror of inept politicians.
