Kann Kunst heilen? Die Welt zu einem besseren Ort machen? Zenita Komad möchte mit ihrer Arbeit genau das. Sie wendet sich mit außergewöhnlichen grafischen und skulpturalen Werken, Objektbildern, Installationen und Inszenierungen, mit klaren oder rätselhaften, kraftvollen, tiefgründigen, poetischen und oft auch witzigen Botschaften an die Menschen, um auf der Basis einer Verständigung zwischen unterschiedlichen Überzeugungen, Weltanschauungen und interreligiöser Spiritualität für eine gemeinsame Verantwortung für die Welt zu werben - denn alles steht mit allem in Verbindung.NIE WIEDER KRIEG!

The exhilarating true story of Trudy Ederle, the first woman to swim the English Channel, and inspire a ?wave of confidence and emancipation? for women in sports (Parade).By age twenty, at the height of the Jazz Age, Trudy Ederle was the most accomplished swimmer in the world. She'd won Olympic gold and set a host of world records. But the greatest challenge remained: the English Channel. Only a few swimmers, none of them women, had ever made the treacherous twenty-one mile crossing. Trudy's failed first attempt seemed to confirm what many naysayers believed: No woman could possibly accomplish such a thing.In 1926, Ederle proved them wrong. As her German immigrant parents cheered her, and her sister and fellow swimmer Meg helped fashion both her scandalous two-piece swimsuit and leak-proof goggles, Trudy was determined to succeed. ?England or drown is my motto,? she said, plunging into the frigid Channel for her second attempt at the crossing. Fourteen hours later, two hours faster than any man, and after weathering a gale and waves that approached six-feet, she stepped onto Kingsdowne Beach as the most famous woman in the world.Based on years of archival research that unearthed Ederle's memory from obscurity, Young Woman and the Sea brings to life the real Trudy Ederle, the challenges that came with her fame, and the historic mark her achievement made for all women athletes who followed.

Hipster fahren mit dem Fixie durch die Straßen, das Fahrrad hängt dekorativ an der Wohnzimmerwand und immer mehr Menschen investieren in teure Fahrräder, Kleidung und andere Ausstattung. Auch aus aktivistischen Szenen ist das Fahrrad nicht mehr wegzudenken. Ausgehend von diesen Beobachtungen entwirft das vorliegende Buch am Beispiel Berlins einen neuen Begriff von Mobilitätskulturen und zeigt auf, dass der Imagewandel des städtischen Radfahrens ein zentraler Baustein der Verkehrswende hin zu lebenswerten Städten ist. Gegenstand der Analyse bilden die komplexen alltagsweltlichen wie medialen Verknüpfungen zwischen Kultur und Verkehrsplanung.

Time is my favorite topic. I always wanted to write a book about time. Finally I decided to write one designed for children. This is not a book that teaches your child how to tell the time. There are numerous such books on the market. This book is different. Basically the book delves into the nature of time. The book was designed such that it includes facts, musings, and speculations about time. These are written in a very simplified form suitable for children. The topics covered are: (1) Hours, Minutes, and Seconds, (2) Years, Months, and Weeks, (3) Past, Preset, and Future, (4) The Calendar, (5) Dimensions, (6) The Fourth Dimension, (7) Psychological Time, (8) The Five Senses, (9) Age of the Universe, (10) Parallel Timelines, (11) Time Travel, (12) Mental Time Travel, (13) The Future, (14) Time and Dreams, (15) Three Dimensions of Time, (16) The Nature of Reality, (17) Consciousness, (18) Healing Yourself, (19) Synchronicity, (20) The End of Time, (21) The Transformation, (22) Time in the Bible. The book may be difficult for children especially the second half of the book where we discuss some advanced concepts in the theory of time. This difficulty is even magnified when we consider that the latter parts of the book are more speculative than factual. But in these speculations we offer a hope that children should be aware of.

As young children growing up across America, no one could have predicted their unlikely career paths. They came from the Mississippi lowlands and forests, the hills of Kentucky, Erie County in New York, and North Carolina. They had humble beginnings working in barbershops, restaurants, farming, gunsmithing, and woodworking. They were taught to love the land and appreciate the cycle of life through hunting. While the American wild turkey would be largely absent from the backyards and farms of their youth, they built multi-million dollar game-call businesses rooted in making turkey calls with which to yelp and gobble. Wild turkeys had been driven nearly to extinction by the 1920s. But thanks to hunters, landowners, conservation organizations, researchers, and state game agencies who were driving restoration efforts by the 1950s, the proliferation of wild turkeys is now a sensational success story. Soon, millions of wild turkeys returned across the country, and over two million hunters began seeking the hunting products needed to serve turkey at their tables.A few enterprising individuals born in a ten-year span from 1942 to 1952 were uniquely positioned at the right time in history. Using cutting-edge materials of construction, technologies, production methods, and marketing tools, they went from cobbling together crude turkey calls on kitchen tables, garage floors, and basements to supplying nationwide retailers. They built iconic outdoor brands: KNIGHT & HALE, PRIMOS®, and QUAKER BOY®.In Yelp & Gobble, Inc., you will discover the insider's story of how Harold Knight, David Hale, Will Primos, Jimmy Primos, and Dick & Bev Kirby (continued by their son, Chris) built their game call production companies, enabled by inventors like Mike Battey and technology adopters like Anthony Foster. This is the story of the American dream brought to life.
