Way Beyond Bigness: The Need for a Watershed Architecture Hoeferlin Derek

Way Beyond Bigness is a design-research project that studies the Mekong, Mississippi and Rhine river basins, with particular focus on multi-scaled, water-based infrastructural transformation.The book proposes a simple, adaptive framework that utilizes a three-part, integrative design-research methodology, structured as: Appreciate + Analyze, Speculate + Synthesize, and Collaborate + Catalyze. To do such, Way Beyond Bigness realigns watersheds and architecture across multiple: scales (site to river basin), disciplines (ecologists to economists), narratives (hyperbolic to pragmatic), and venues (academic to professional).The research critiques and recasts Oxford Dictionary's two very different definitions for a "watershed" 1) "An area or ridge of land that separates waters flowing to different rivers, basins, or seas" and 2) "An event or period marking a turning point in

Ti mene ne razumiješ - vodič za djevojke

Nikada prije djevojke i mlade žene nisu imale toliko slobode i izbora kao danas. Ali nikada prije nisu bile ni suočene s toliko zahtjeva i očekivanja – bilo da si ih nameću one same ili da to čini njihova okolina. Neke stvari za djevojke i mlade žene kreću se u dobrom smjeru, ali neke druge krenule su po zlu. Problemi s mentalnim zdravljem među tinejdžericama i mladim ženama u strašnoj su uzlaznoj putanji: samoozljeđivanje među djevojkama u dobi od 16 do 24 godine skočilo je sa 6 posto u 2000. godini na današnjih oko 20 posto. Na koji se način današnje tinejdžerice i djevojke mogu nositi s ovim životnim razdobljem? Postoji li uopće jednoznačan i jednostavan odgovor? Oslanjajući se na golemo iskustvo, znanje i stručnost u radu s djecom i adolescentima, iznimno cijenjena britanska klinička psihologinja dr. Tara Porter piše o izazovima i problemima s kojima se današnje djevojke, mlade žene, ali i svi mi susrećemo te nam govori kako ih prevladati. Pišući o obiteljskim odnosima i toksičnim prijateljstvima, kontroliranju tjeskobe i nošenju s negativnim emocijama, o ispitima, školi i obrazovanju, ljubavi i seksu, opsjednutosti savršenim izgledom i zdravom prehranom te ovisnosti o internetu, dr. Tara Porter obraća se izravno svojim čitateljicama jezikom punim topline, empatije i humora. Prijevod: Andrea Marić

The Prince of Terrana

A talizmánok titka

Fekete Örvény, a gonosz varázsló, aki ezer éven át fogságban sínylődött, kiszabadult. Hatalmas veszély leselkedik a Fantázia Birodalmára! A mágus arra készül, hogy megkaparintsa a hét talizmánt, melyek óriási hatalommal ruházzák fel birtokosukat. Florianna, a tündérek királynője tőlem kért segítséget, és kinevezett a Hét Tenger Lovagjává. Ezer veszéllyel dacolva indultam el, hogy megszerezzem a medálokat, és megmentsem a Fantázia Birodalmát a pusztulástól.

Popis : Polozapomenutá devítiúterní pobožnost ke sv. Antonínovi z Padovy, kterou dle pověsti zjevil léta Páně 1617 jisté zbožné ženě sám světec. Vysokou cenu této pobožnosti potvrdila i Církev svatá, když ji v 18. století papežové obdařili částečnými, ba dokonce i plnomocnými odpustky.Druh sortimentu : Kniha, Název : Devítiúterní pobožnost ke sv.

Panslávi s erbom

Dva unikátne a bizarné ľudské osudy reprezentované dvoma šľachticmi – barónom Gregorom Friesenhofom (1840 – 1913) a kniežaťom Liviom Odescalchim (1863 – 1938). Delila ich jedna generácia, niekoľko stupňov na aristokratickom rebríčku a ich celoživotné záujmy. Pre jedného to bolo poľnohospodárstvo a meteorológia v tom najširšom zmysle slova, pre druhého skôr umenie, veda a politika. Mali však aj veľa spoločného. Obaja boli svojím pôvodom cudzincami, ich sídla delilo len čosi cez 10 kilometrov, stali sa bielymi vranami vo svojích rodinách, mnohí ich mali za bláznov a svojimi životnými osudmi si viackrát skrížili cesty. Nakoniec ich spojil vzťah k slovenskému prostrediu a k slovenskému národnopolitickému hnutiu. Friesenhof bol členom výboru Matice slovenskej, dopisovateľom do slovenskej tlače a dušou unikátneho hospodárskeho spolku s tolerantným postojom k slovenským roľníkom a ich záujmom. Odescalchi mal kontakty so slovenskými politikmi, stál na čele prevratu v regióne v roku 1918, organizoval slovenskú šľachtu v prospech Československej republiky a bol v úzkom vzťahu s Maticou slovenskou. Životné osudy oboch osobností spolu s pôvodom a rodinným prostredím, ako aj regionálnym i celoslovenským zakotvením, vytvárajú príbehy, ktoré by človek nevymyslel a ktoré mohli „stvoriť“ len dejiny vo svojej jedinečnosti a pestrosti.Prof. PhDr. Roman Holec, DrSc. (1959, Bratislava), zaoberá sa dejinami „dlhého“ 19. storočia, jeho špecializáciou sú hospodárske a sociálne dejiny, v súčasnosti najmä dejiny šľachty a environmentálna história. Je autorom 17 samostatných knižných titulov, spoluautorom vyše desiatich syntéz a takmer dvoch stoviek vedeckých štúdií publikovaných v 15 krajinách sveta. Študoval na Filozofickej fakulte UK v Bratislave odbor slovenčina-dejepis. Pracuje na Historickom ústave SAV, je profesorom histórie na Katedre slovenských dejín Filozofickej fakulty UK.

The Great Lady: Restoring Her Story Barker Margaret

The Great Lady of the Jerusalem temple was a defining presence in the religion of ancient Israel, yet she has been almost erased from the official biblical narrative. Only in recent years have her eclipse, and her shadowy enduring presence, been noticed and understood. In a diligent but daring and incisive approach to texts and material evidence, Margaret Barker begins a comprehensive restoration of the Lady's story.As Barker has shown in her earlier books, a drive to expel the Lady, revered as Mother of the Davidic kings, culminated in King Josiah's purge in 623 BCE. Moses and the Law became central for the post-exilic faithful; Enochic voices called them the apostate generation; and the Hebrew Scriptures were edited by their scribes. Memories remained, but have been identified as later additions. In this volume Barker shows the Lady and herSon
