![]() However, there is an age when the book is not an appreciated read. Unlike most books, this book does not have a targeted age group it is targeted to the general public. The prince is from a different planet, and while the pilot is trying to repair his plane, the little prince keeps him company and tells the pilot about his travels to different planets. There, in the Sahara Desert, the pilot meets a little boy who is called “The Little Prince”. The story begins with a pilot crash-landing in the Sahara Desert and we are told that he quickly has to repair his plane before he runs out of water. The book can be interpreted in multiple ways and conveys dozens of small secret messages hidden between the lines to all adults. The book was written as if it were a children’s book, but it has always been so much more. ![]() ![]() 23 April 2020 Leave a Comment “The Little Prince” was written by a French author called Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in 1943. ![]() ![]() ![]() A quick glance through her list of recipes can’t help but pique your interest and tempt you to flip over to the particular page. One thing I have to hand out to her however – she’s one helluva creative cook! And I mean that in the most nicest way I can. You see, like many out there, I too find her a bit too jumpy to be had with my morning cuppa – which is why I try and tune in to her during lunch time. But on the other hand, as someone who can’t resist the urge to flip the channel whenever RR has one of her umpteen show on, I was a bit skeptical. ![]() As someone who devours a cookbook akin to the latest bestselling bedtime read, I was ecstatic. ![]() A couple of weeks ago, I received a stack of Rachael Ray’s cookbooks for review, including, 365: No Repeats, Express Lane Meals and Just in Time. ![]() ![]() The book centers around a group of women throwing a bachelorette party for the seemingly perfect, virgin bride: Helen. The Bachelorette Party is a standalone novel written by author and screenwriter Karen McCullah Lutz. Pick this book and you're sure going to laugh out, until your stomach hurts!! ![]() The author has surely managed to make this plot seriously into a funny and witty chick-lit novel. So if you want a good laugh, go for this book, because you're going to enjoy a lot and also learn how Zadie lusted for a 17-year old guy, Trevor from her school. Although she was quite successful in turning that bachelorette party into a wild one!

Upward Bound is a national program run by the U.S. After a recommendation from a friend, Pemberton discovered the Upward Bound program, which he said greatly helped him in his journey to Chestnut Hill. Pemberton said his response was simply, “What’s college?”Īfter constantly adapting to different home environments, he had no idea what life could look like after high school. Pemberton, who grew up in New Bedford, Mass., discovered Boston College in the seventh grade when his guidance counselor handed him a brochure and suggested he look into it. Today, he is the chief human resources officer for the Dublin-based software company Workhuman, a bestselling author, sought-after speaker, youth advocate, husband, and the father of three. “You never want to have your fate and/or your destiny resting in somebody else’s hands like that,” Pemberton, BC ’89, said. ![]() Pemberton said he learned many lessons from his experience in the foster care system, which he describes in his novel A Chance in the World: An Orphan Boy, A Mysterious Past, and How He Found a Place Called Home. ![]() Instead, Pemberton went through many foster homes and eventually lived with a family who abused him mentally and physically for 13 years. At 3 years old, Steve Pemberton was taken from his alcoholic mother and placed into the foster care system. ![]() ![]() ![]() While each entry in Reckless is stand alone, designed to be read in any order, Follow Me Down is a companion to The Ghost In You, chronicling Ethan’s adventures that ran concurrent with Anna’s in the previous book. What happens to our emotionally numb anti-hero’s outlook on life when he’s not so numb? And is that numbness a blessing in disguise?įollow Me Down is a subtle and welcome break in the established Reckless formula, presenting a philosophical counterweight to what we’ve come to know about Ethan. It’s a book that places a sharp contrast between its internal cathartic moment, and the expectations created by the rest of the series. While in pursuit of a woman named Rachel, the latest book in the Reckless series by Ed Brubaker, Sean Phillips and Jacob Phillips, asks us to interrogate how far we have fallen, and what we can never quite let go of. ![]() ![]() Just like Alice followed the white rabbit down to wonderland, we again return to Ethan Reckless, as a case cascades him down to hell in the new graphic novel, Follow Me Down. ![]() ![]() ![]() One of my favorites is Death and the Woodwife, in which the main character outwits Death himself. Some of Albert’s characters thirst for revenge, others desire justice, all are smart and resourceful and actual people rather than archetypes. I especially enjoyed this, having read my fill of fairy tales where women either have no agency and exist only to be examples of purity, or are villainized as stepmothers and witches. Albert takes the format of fairy tales and uses well-known tropes of the genre to infuse her stories with morality and magic.Īlbert’s stories are full of well-defined, complicated main characters, all of whom are female. Tales from the Hinterland largely captures and keeps the original tone of The Door That Wasn’t There, expanding on Albert’s gifts for writing stories that feel like better, more interesting, and more feminist versions of Brother’s Grimm tales. ![]() It was one of my favorite parts of the book because of its enchanting fantasy prose and its dark, twisted ending. I decided to read this book because of The Door That Wasn’t There, a short story in The Hazel Wood. Tales from the Hinterland is a novel based on Melissa Albert’s first book, The Hazel Wood. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The paper concludes that the black swan concept should be associated with a surprising extreme event relative to the present knowledge. The main aim of this paper is to contribute to a clarification of the issue in order to strengthen the foundations of the meaning and characterisation of risk, and in this way provide a basis for improved risk management. In this paper we carry out an in-depth analysis of what a black swan means in relation to risk, uncertainty and probability: is a black swan just an extreme event with a very low probability or is it a more surprising event in some sense, for example an unknown unknown? We question how the black swans are linked to the risk concep t, to expected values and probabilities, and to the common distinction between aleatory uncertainties and epistemic uncertainties. ![]() A key issue has been the ability of risk assessment and probability theory to capture the black swans. ![]() In recent years there has been much focus on the so-called black swans in relation to risk management and decision making under uncertainty. ![]() ![]() It’s as if you were in a foreign country, able to see and understand everything that’s going on around you but incapable of explaining what you need to know or of being helped, because you don’t understand the language they speak there.” Paulo Coelho, Veronika Decides to Dieģ5. I’ll just say that insanity is the inability to communicate your ideas. “This time I m not going to tell you a story. And one day we will look back with pride and faith at the journey we have taken.” ? Paulo Coelhoģ4. Yes, we are going to suffer, we will have difficult times, and we will experience many disappointments - but all of this is transitory it leaves no permanent mark. Our magic moment help us to change and sends us off in search of our dreams. “Joy is sometimes a blessing, but it is often a conquest. It is the worst of all tortures, the worst of all sufferings.” ? Paulo Coelhoģ1. “Human beings can withstand a week without water, two weeks without food, many years of homelessness, but not loneliness. “Intuition is really a sudden immersion of the soul into the universal current of life.” ?

On the contrary, it’s a constant state of anxiety, a battlefield it’s sleepless nights, asking ourselves all the time if we’re doing the right thing. But love doesn’t bring and never has brought happiness. “After all, what is happiness?
