Daniel Nie: Often I hear people say that their life was not going the way they wanted it to. I was not exceptional in this regard either. I remember at one particular point in my life, nothing was going my way at all. I was laid off, my newly started business was failing, my marriage was hanging on a thin string, my newborn daughter was very sick, and I was completely broke. However, I realized I was blessed with the inner power of "creativity." With this ability, I put myself together, and I started to build a new life, a successful life. We are so accustomed to looking at things (such as problems, stresses, and anxieties) in one way only. When we do this, we only see fragments of the whole picture and base our responses, actions, and decisions on our limited judgments. This faulty way of thinking and reasoning is often the main reason why our lives often do not go the way we plan, and our problems become more and more difficult to solve. But what if we can train our minds to change the way we think?

Ristampa integrale, con eccezionali fotografie della prima edizione , di un libro di memorie squadriste del 1936. L' autore ripercorre l' attività squadrista del fascio di Carrara durante il " biennio rosso" in contrasto alla guerriglia di sinistra che stava insanguinando un paese fiaccato dalla guerra appena finita e che voleva instaurare la " repubblica dei soviet" in Italia. Documentazione di prima mano sul filo lirico del ricordo entusiasta in prima persona. Ci documenta i numerosi caduti del campo fascista e il soverchiante numero delle forze avverse. Interessante notare come le squadre fasciste assunsero compiti di protezione civile durante una catastrofe naturale occorsa in quel periodo. Il libro si chiude con la partecipazione delle squadre carraresi alla Marcia su Roma . Documento unico, scorrevole la narrazione. Merita di essere letto per la sua documentazione e scioltezza narrativa..... ed anche per sapere come andrà a finire l' assedio con mitragliatrici della prefettura effettuato dalle squadre e se il Prefetto ebbe ad accettare la resa offertagli dagli insorti fascisti... meglio di un romanzo. Storia vera: altri uomini, altri tempi, quando le rivolte diventavano rivoluzioni : gli " anni ruggenti" d' Italia.

When looking into the depth of religion in ancient Mesopotamia, Egyptian mythology, Greek mythology and Abrahamic religions one is dumbfounded by the underlying pattern of a god we turned away from.

But hidden deep in the semantics, one will find this fiery god again.

Is it possible to compile and rank music that was composed prior to the 18th century; that is, before 1700? The answer is yes, if one considers a combination of Classical music listener polls, Classical music forum rankings, the numbers of recordings of early music, and the number of appearances of hymns in hymnbooks. With such a variety of resources, Christmas, Classical, Religious, and music written by Women can be listed and ranked, dating from eras that long preceded recording technology and official music charts. The music compiled in this book turns the clock way back to a timeline that extends from Ancient to Early & Middle Baroque. Some of the music predates music notation, but has nevertheless endured. The music also dates from a very long era during which nearly all compositions were for voice only. Instrumental music for the lute and viol and their partners, and later the harpsichord and organ, were only beginning to come in vogue. Nearly all of the music in the book's charts is from western Europe - to compensate for the geographical limitations, early artistry from beyond western Europe is discussed. The number one composition from the entire pre-18th century period, finally finding new life nearly three centuries after it was written, is Johann Pachelbel's "Canon & Gigue in D." But, don't stop with that piece of information, as there is a whole volume of music about which to learn, listen and love. So, get the book, and look inside...
