Some of the places and famous people mentioned in this book are based on recorded historical events that have been forgotten, manipulated and/or hidden from us. Most of our generation has never heard of any of it. Just about every non-Western civilization since the beginning of time has told legends of an ancient race of super-advanced beings that live in an inner-earth city. Some call it Shambula, Others know it as Telos. Many explorers have tried entering this hidden place, but all failed—except for one American pilot, the renowned Admiral Richard E.

  • Psychoanalytic Perspectives on Puberty and Adolescence
    Psychoanalytic Perspectives on Puberty and Adolescence Puberty is a time of tumultuous transition from childhood to adulthood activated by rapid physical changes, hormonal development and explosive activity of neurons. This book explores puberty through the parent-teenager relationship, as a “normal state of crisis”, lasting several years and with the teenager oscillating between childlike tendencies and their desire to become an adult. The more parents succeed in recognizing and experiencing these new challenges as an integral, ineluctable emotional transformative process, the more they can allow their children to become independent. In addition, parents who can also see this crisis as a chance for their own further development will be ultimately enriched by this painful process. They can face up to their own aging as they take leave of youth with its myriad possibilities, accepting and working through a newfound rivalry with their sexually mature children, thus experiencing a process of maturity, which in turn can set an example for their children. This book is based on rich clinical observations from international settings, unique within the field, and there is an emphasis placed by the author on the role of the body in self-awareness, identity crises and gender construction. It will be of great interest to psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, parents and carers, as well as all those interacting with adolescents in self, family and society. Gertraud Diem-Wille is Professor Emeritus at the University of Klagenfurt in the field of Psychoanalytic Education. She is a training analyst for children, adolescents and adults (IPA) and has pioneered and supported the training in psychoanalytic observational approaches to training in psychoanalytic and educational fields in Austria.

  • The Motivations and Practices of Metal Detectorists and Their Attitudes to Landscape
    More than Treasure Hunting: The Motivations and Practices of Metal Detectorists and their Attitudes to Landscape Felicity Mary Beatrice Winkley Dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Archaeology, University College London 1 DECLARATION I, Felicity Mary Beatrice Winkley confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Felicity Winkley 2 ABSTRACT This thesis aims to consider how attachment to landscape is generated, and investigates how this might be enacted via metal detecting, in order to better understand the attitudes of metal detectorists searching today. Metal detecting is a unique way of experiencing the historic landscape, allowing amateurs to access heritage hands-on, locating and unearthing their own fragment of the archaeological record. With an estimated 15,000 people currently detecting in the UK, and 1,111,122 objects recorded to date on the Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS) database, a huge expanse of England’s historic places are being walked, searched and mapped. Using original quantitative and qualitative data, this study investigates the attitudes of metal- detector users in England and Wales in order to better understand what proportion feel attached to the landscape on which they detect, and what impact this attachment might have upon their feelings towards discovered objects, the historic past, and their general practice. The popularity of metal detecting, along with the unique situation that this country’s legislation accommodates it, demands the heritage sector moves toward creative decision- making and programming if it is to offer adequate protection to the archaeological resource whilst also engaging a community of interested participants.

  • Biblical Faith Evoked in the Hagiographical Novels Of
    ABSTRACT The Witness of the Saints: Literary Method and Theological Matter in the Hagiographical Novels of Evelyn Waugh, Frederick Buechner, and Walter Wangerin, Jr. Rachel Lynn Payne, Ph.D. Mentor: Ralph C. Wood, Ph.D. Evelyn Waugh, Frederick Buechner, and Walter Wangerin bring the contemporary witness of three obscure saints to life in the pages of their historical fiction. These modern hagiographers perceive divine revelation in all aspects of the natural world, and their fiction reflects this worldview and attempts to make it manifest for their audience. Sometimes they succeed brilliantly; at other times the seams in their tapestry of art and faith are glaringly visible—to the point that they compromise the fabric’s integrity. Many secular critics dismiss their work because they admit to plying their artistic talent for the sake of illuminating sacred mysteries. Waugh, Buechner and Wangerin recognize the pitfalls of embodying supernatural realities in concrete images, but they are eager to imitate the biblical model by recasting sacred mystery into story. The way they found to do this in Helena, Brendan, and Saint Julian is to use the outline of a historical saint’s life and experiment with the genre, narrative voice, metaphorical language, magical realism, and comic vision to shape a work of literary art that reflects their faith perspective. Moreover, they weave their own life-stories into fictionalized accounts of saints’ lives. Their obsessions with sin and penance, their fears of abandonment and death, their concerns about strained relationships with parents and difficult neighbors—all find a place in these writers’ hagiographical narratives.

DESCRIPTORS *College Students; Course Selection (Students); English; Females; Feminism; Foreign Countries; Higher Education; Humanities; *Intellectual Disciplines; Interdisciplinary Approach; Majors (Students); Males; Physics; Sciences; *Sex Differences; Student Attitudes; Student Development; Student Experience IDENTIFIERS *United Kingdom ABSTRACT This book reports a study which examined the concrete experiences of male and female university students in the United Kingdom, and the meanings students attach to them. It suggests that meanings arise from everyday discourse, which habitually uses oppositions such as masculinity/femininity and arts/sciences. Chapter 1 introduces the issue of gender as a social construct, and discusses the relationship of education to gender, and gender and subject choice. It describes the study's methodology, which involved interviews with 48 male and 48 female students and 12 faculty at two British universities and one polytechnic in two subject areas--English and physics. Chapters 2 and 3 examine the literature on gender and education, gender and science, and the different cultures of "science" and "humanities." Chapter 4 looks at how physics students and staff construct their subject and how this affects and is affected by their ideas about humanities disciplines.

BATMAN, CATWOMAN, GOTHAM CITY, ET AL CREATED BY BOB KANE, PROPERTY OF DC ENTERTAINMENT, USED WITHOUT PERMISSION catwoman-cattales.com facebook.com/cattales.by.chris.dee ISBN: 978-1517197902 DON’T FEAR THE JOKER Germs. The worst thing about winter. Marty Parks started the day with a hot shower—his showers were a lot hotter and a lot longer than they had been a week ago—and he scrubbed his skin raw with the scratchy new loofah. He’d always considered the loofah one of those silly, new agey things, but lately, he really didn’t feel like a washcloth got him clean. He wanted something that would SCRUB. He wondered how sanitary they were though. He knew the loofah was some kind of fishy plant thing. It might not be that hygienic after you used it a couple times and then left it there, all wet, in the steamy bathroom. There was no telling what kind of mold or mildew might start growing in there. Impulsively, Marty threw his new loofah away once he had toweled off. They were cheap enough; he could get a new one. He was a working man, not made of money, but it was cold and flu season. You couldn’t be too careful. If he got sick, he’d lose a lot more than the cost of buying a new loofah every week, that was for sure. He checked to see that the iron was hot and laid out his uniform on the bed, giving the shirt and pants a good pressing before he put them on.
