  • A Read of at the Back of the North Wind
    A Read��� of At the Back of the North Wind Col�� Ma�love acDonald’s At the Back of the North Wind (1871) was first serialised inM Good Words for the Young under his own editorship, from October 1868 to November 1870. It was his first attempt at writing a full-length “fairy-story” for children, following on his shorter fairy tales—including “The Selfish Giant,” “The Light Princess,” and “The Golden Key”—written between 1862 and 1867, and published in Dealings with the Fairies (1867). At the Back of the North Wind is, in fact, longer than either of the Princess books that were to follow it, The Princess and the Goblin (1872) and The Princess and Curdie (1882). It tells of the boy Diamond’s life as a cabman’s son in a poor area of mid-Victorian London, and of his meetings and adventures with a lady called North Wind; and it includes a separate fairy tale called “Little Daylight,” two dream-stories, and several poems. Generally well received by the public, it has hardly been out of print since. At the Back of the North Wind is MacDonald’s only fantasy set mainly in this world. In Phantastes (1858), Anodos goes into Fairy Land and in Lilith Mr. Vane finds himself in the Region of the Seven Dimensions. In the Princess books we are in a fairy-tale realm of kings, princesses, and goblins; and the worlds of the shorter fairy tales are all full of fairies, witches, and giants. But Diamond’s story nearly all happens either in Victorian London or in other parts of the world where North Wind takes him.

Despite their close economic relationship since 1965, their conflicting historic and political relationships and deep-seated prejudice against each other have continued. The Korean government’s official ban on the direct import of Japanese cultural products existed until 1997, but various kinds of Japanese cultural products, including popular music, found their way into Korea through various legal and illegal routes and influenced contemporary Korean popular culture. Since 1998, under Korea’s Open- Door Policy, legally available Japanese popular cultural products became widely consumed, especially among young Koreans fascinated by Japan’s quintessentially postmodern popular culture, despite lingering resentments towards Japan.

It's time to get going again. We're about to begin a journey that will take us from the infinitesimal to the infinite, from the dawn of time to the distant future. We'll explore galaxies and suns and worlds, surf the gravity waves of space-time, encounter beings that live in fire and ice, explore the planets of stars that never die, discover atoms as massive as suns and universes smaller than atoms.

  • World Population Ageing 2019
    World Population Ageing 2019 Highlights ST/ESA/SER.A/430 Department of Economic and Social Affairs Population Division World Population Ageing 2019 Highlights United Nations New York, 2019 The Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations Secretariat is a vital interface between global policies in the economic, social and environmental spheres and national action. The Department works in three main interlinked areas: (i) it compiles, generates and analyses a wide range of economic, social and environmental data and information on which States Members of the United Nations draw to review common problems and take stock of policy options; (ii) it facilitates the negotiations of Member States in many intergovernmental bodies on joint courses of action to address ongoing or emerging global challenges; and (iii) it advises interested Governments on the ways and means of translating policy frameworks developed in United Nations conferences and summits into programmes at the country level and, through technical assistance, helps build national capacities. The Population Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs provides the international community with timely and accessible population data and analysis of population trends and development outcomes for all countries and areas of the world. To this end, the Division undertakes regular studies of population size and characteristics and of all three components of population change (fertility, mortality and migration). Founded in 1946, the Population Division provides substantive support on population and development issues to the United Nations General Assembly, the Economic and Social Council and the Commission on Population and Development. It also leads or participates in various interagency coordination mechanisms of the United Nations system.

    True Parents’ Message and News English Version No. 75 天一國 8年 天曆 DECEMBER11 2020 ARTICLE ONE The Importance of the Cheonshimwon By Gi-seong Lee n December 15, 2017, True Mother gave me the heavy responsibility of serving as president of FFWPU for a heavenly Korea. I was so grateful, but on many nights I could not sleep from worries and anxieties. Nevertheless, I had to go toward victory in realizing Vision 2020. I have Obeen running for the past three years as president, holding onto the guidance she gave me, “The more you feel inadequate, the more Heaven will work with you.” Looking back on the past three years, I recall touching memories I had with church members. On February 22, 2018, at the Cheongshim World Peace Center, heavenly Korea had a March Forward Rally for the Inheritance of Heavenly For- tune. That was not a rally at which we listened to True Mother's guidance and made resolutions. The intent of the rally was to enthrone her and to display our firm re- solve. There, I expressed my determination with fear and a trembling heart. I shed tears that day. Twenty thou- sand others did as well. Thus, Heavenly Parent moved in miraculous ways. The foundation to begin emerged, and after Foundation Day, forty families began the heavenly tribal messiah work to bless 430 couples horizontal- ly [in the earthly realm]. In just six months, the forty families multiplied tenfold to over four hundred. I also cherish the Cheonshimwon all-night-prayer vigil. In March 2018, under True Mother's direction, eight leaders did a rotating all-night-prayer vigil there for twenty-one days.

  • The Power of True Love and True Parents' and Heavenly Parent's Teaching Sun Jin Moon January 13, 2018 the Heart to Heart Session
    The power of True Love and True Parents' and Heavenly Parent's teaching Sun Jin Moon January 13, 2018 The Heart to Heart Session YAYAM Leadership Retreat, IPEC, Las Vegas During the YAYAM Leadership Retreat Winter 2018 (January 12-14) Sun Jin Nim, accompanied by her husband In Sup Nim, guided young people in a Heart-to-Heart session at IPEC in Las Vegas on January 13, 2018. She read from True Father's autobiography and then lovingly answered questions from the audience. Late in the program she guided them in a meditation for the revival of their spirits, and concluded by giving special gifts to some lucky members of the audience. As with previous occasions, Sun Jin Nim sought to connect very personally with each audience member's heart and to help them understand True Mother's work for the global providence and her love for the members worldwide. Hoon Dok Hae: Leaving Behind a Legacy of Love (p.226 – p.231, As a Peace-Loving Global Citizen) "A true life is a life in which we abandon our private desires and live for the public good. This is a truth taught by all major religious leaders past and present, East and West, whether it be Jesus, Buddha, or the Prophet Mohammed. It is a truth that is so widely known that, sadly, it seems to have been devalued. The passage of time or changes in the world cannot diminish the value of this truth. This is because the essence of human life never changes, even in the midst of rapid change all around the world.
