Soon a volcanic eruption will trigger catastrophic devastation, and the only way out is up. While the world's leaders, scientists, and engineers oversee the frantic production of a space fleet meant to save humankind, their children are brought in for a weekend of touring the Lazarus, a high-tech prototype spaceship. But when the apocalypse arrives months ahead of schedule, First Daughter Leigh Chen and a handful of teens from the tour are the only ones to escape the planet. This is the new world: a starship loaded with a catalog of human artifacts, a frozen menagerie of animal DNA, and fifty-three terrified survivors. From the panic arises a coalition of leaders, spearheaded by the pilot's enigmatic daughter, Eli, who takes the wheel in their hunt for a habitable planet. But as isolation presses in, their uneasy peace begins to fracture. The struggle for control will mean the difference between survival and oblivion, and Leigh must decide whether to stand on the side of the mission or of her own humanity. With aching poignancy and tense, heart-in-your-mouth action, this enthralling saga will stay with readers long after the final page.

Download or read book Be More written by Charlie Hugh-Jones and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2022-02-01 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are complex beings capable of incredible creativity, intimate connection, and immeasurable compassion. But too often we get in our own way. We spend our lives pursuing things outside of ourselves to convince us that we are enough, that we matter, that we belong or that there is some meaning in our suffering. The truths that transform us—that allow us to be more—are not complicated. However, they are often hidden in plain sight, concealed from us by our own fear and busyness, waiting for us to slow down sufficiently to encounter them. It took a crisis that almost brought me to a full stop to notice a reality that was right in front of me—a reality that now enables me to experience life with more ease and inspires me to access deeper realms of creativity, connection, and compassion. A reality that enables me to be more. This book is about transcending our biological programing and cultural conditioning (our neurobiology and psychology) and re-connecting with the magnificence of who we really are, the magic of human connection and the mystery of our place in the universe. This is a playbook for learning how to be, more.

Download or read book Smoking Kids written by Frieke Janssens and published by Uitgeverij Luster. This book was released on 2013-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A highly controversial photography project that depicts children smoking, with the intention of highlighting the boundaries between aesthetic success and moral distress Illustrates the contrast between beauty and ugliness. On the one hand, smoking makes people ill, grey and wrinkled; on the other hand, it confers a certain aesthetic appeal Not intended to be a book to file away on your bookshelves, each of the photographs can be removed. Tear them out, send them to someone, or hang them on your wall, just make sure they are seen! Two years ago, Belgian photographer Frieke Janssens came across a YouTube video of a two year old Indonesian child chain smoking, totalling, on average, two packs a day. Recognising the many socio-cultural differences between the East and the West, the artist's plan to confront the Western viewer with such conflicting, surreal images grew and she departed on her new artistic mission. Smoking Kids is the title of Frieke Janssens' somewhat controversial photographic project. Fifteen children aged between four and nine pose in a startling adult way in front of the camera, each smoking a cigarette, cigar or pipe. Looking like they have stepped right out of a 1960's TV show adds a modestly theatrical, retro quality but also something whimsical and unreal to the images. The effect of these photos on the viewer has proven to be both overwhelming and diverse. Since their inauguration at the artist's representing Gallery Ingrid Deuss, Belgium, in 2011, the art world quickly responded with fascination and admiration for this bold series of photographs which resulted in consecutive exhibitions in Belgium, Russia and the USA. Simultaneously, the images travelled the Internet, appearing and reappearing on various blogs and forums where comments of disbelief and concern ruled the day. Unaware of the skillful Photoshop tricks applied to the photos, once again, people convicted this contemporary art to be shocking and manipulative, now even dragging children down the abyss of its sensation-focused ambitions. But, Janssens' photographs are really not that. Instead, they manage to hold an almost perfect balance between something that we consider to be ugly and wrong (the habit of smoking and children who have developed that habit) and an aesthetically pleasing image. Although many will condemn and frown upon the pictured action, Janssens' Smoking Kids is likeable, clever and thought-provoking, like all good art should be. The visual impact of a photograph can be potentially so intriguing that it has the capability of challenging our personal and shared critical opinion. AUTHOR: Frieke Janssens is a widely celebrated photographer of campaigns for diverse, nationally significant cultural institutions and projects. One of few successful contemporary photographers that have managed to stay faithful to her own artistic style and vision, she exploits her growing artistic talent and technical expertise to produce images that make a difference and that are truly intriguing.The perfection of the images, the careful selection of costume, hairstyles and accessories, the varied poses, the suggested emotions, the clever manipulations of the cigarette's smoke, proves her commitment to creating as perfect as possible and attention-grabbing images. 15 colour illustrations
