    ENDER'S GAME by Orson Scott Card Chapter 1 -- Third "I've watched through his eyes, I've listened through his ears, and tell you he's the one. Or at least as close as we're going to get." "That's what you said about the brother." "The brother tested out impossible. For other reasons. Nothing to do with his ability." "Same with the sister. And there are doubts about him. He's too malleable. Too willing to submerge himself in someone else's will." "Not if the other person is his enemy." "So what do we do? Surround him with enemies all the time?" "If we have to." "I thought you said you liked this kid." "If the buggers get him, they'll make me look like his favorite uncle." "All right. We're saving the world, after all. Take him." *** The monitor lady smiled very nicely and tousled his hair and said, "Andrew, I suppose by now you're just absolutely sick of having that horrid monitor. Well, I have good news for you. That monitor is going to come out today. We're going to just take it right out, and it won't hurt a bit." Ender nodded. It was a lie, of course, that it wouldn't hurt a bit. But since adults always said it when it was going to hurt, he could count on that statement as an accurate prediction of the future. Sometimes lies were more dependable than the truth. "So if you'll just come over here, Andrew, just sit right up here on the examining table.

    HIDDEN WORLDS travel into inner space Lora Dimova / Master´s Thesis Aalto University, School of Art, Design and Architecture MA degree in Fine Art, Department of Art 2015 Abstract Te thesis refects my personal journey to the hidden worlds, located in the realm of the inner space. Tese worlds are accessed by alteration of the consciousness, which travels nonlinearly and expresses itself in various ways, presented as separate zones in the book. Te zones are related to the six intermediate states in Tibetan Buddhism - birth and life, meditation, dreams, time of death, second stage of the death process and rebirth. Te intention of the thesis is to take the reader on a journey and make him simultaneously a participant and observer. Diferent styles of writing are incorporated in order to place the reader straight in the map of the inner space. Te thesis illustrates the idea of the multidimensional body of the future, which has subtle layers and selves, exist- ing in diferent dimensions. Death, rebirth and eventually immortality are part of the construct of this body. Te art works included in the thesis explore the hidden worlds and give the reader an idea about their content. KEY WORDS: subtle body, altered states of consciousness, performance art, intermediate states, expansion, Tibet- an Buddhism, art of the future At the beginning was the IMAGE. Instructions before starting reading. Place the book on eye level and look at the image for 10 sec. Ten close your eyes and take few deep breaths. Start counting backwards from 100 to 0.

We have access to more information than ever, yet it seems things aren’t getting any easier for marketers—in fact, one in four teens would rather go to JAIL than never be able to skip an ad again. We’ve entered the Post-Viral age of marketing, where reach does not equal engagement and engagement does not equal profit—just ask Snapchat. After all, today’s consumers aren’t just savvy, they’re finicky, too. They can spot brands’ tactics from miles away because they’re using the same ones to build their own. They want marketers to speak their language, but are ruthlessly unforgiving when they miss the mark, whether it’s by a little (Gucci memes) or a lot (Pepsi trying to be #woke).

  • Brian's Story
    ABSTRACT DEATH ACCEPTANCE AND INTIMATE RELATIONSHIPS by Hideaki Imai Although researchers have investigated death attitudes since the 1960s, only a few have examined death acceptance as a research topic. Furthermore, most of these studies focused on quantitative assessments without finding consistent results. In this study, I conducted a qualitative investigation on the role of intimate relationships in accepting death. I interviewed four older adult participants about their death attitudes and intimate relationships in semi-structured interviews. From the results, I found that the male participants needed to deepen their relationships before accepting death, whereas the female participants already had intimate relationships and were able to accept death immediately as they became aware of their mortality.

    Rodham is a work of fiction. While some characters have real-life counterparts, their characterizations and the incidents in which they are depicted are products of the author’s imagination and are used fictitiously.
