![]() ![]() Belief became a weapon for Hari, and soon, the Foundation also utilized that weapon to propel its advancement through the four kingdoms. Hari Seldon knew that people would have never followed him to Terminus if they did not believe that they were going to save humanity. ![]() However, Hari leveraged the belief people had in him as a mathematician and psychologist and used it to lead almost 100,000 people to Terminus, which is a planet and a part of the unique vocabulary in the book ‘Foundation.’ Religion and belief are the primary themes of ‘Foundation.’ In the story, the character of Hari Seldon tells Gaal that the only way to save humanity from the threat of a dark age is to build a foundation that would create the Encyclopedia Galactica. With the story focusing on the rise and fall of an Empire, its themes tend to the delicate nature of human interaction with society and the role politics and the want for freedom play in creating and destroying society. ‘Foundation’ is a novel that presents itself with themes that tune with the human mind and its society. ![]()

I have also developed a sensitivity towards and activism on behalf of the blind and visually impaired. Since then I have lived my life by the eye doctor's adage "Never take your eyesight for granted". Twenty-two years ago I was given the dreadful news that I might lose all the sight in my left eye. ![]() On a personal note, in 1988 I lost the central vision in my left eye by toxoplasmosis, a diagnosis I still don't understand yet eye specialist after specialist told me the same thing. The subject of my latest book cuts close to home: Cockeyed: a memoir is Ryan Knighton's own story about his gradual loss of vision by retinitis pigmentosa. ![]() ![]() The play has complicated dynamics, with both personal and political conflicts. ![]() Then I realized that it’s something that can be done.” I’ve done a fair amount of acting but I’m not one of those actors is the cliché ‘What I really want to do is direct.’ I never had that ambition. “The best way to do that was to volunteer to direct it myself,” Zeiger said. He thought it would be a fun play to put on at Christmas. Last Christmas, Zeiger watched the 1968 film of “The Lion in Winter,” starring Peter O’Toole and Katharine Hepburn, and realized that it was similar to “Incorruptible” in that it used contemporary English and was set in the Middles Ages, barring the comedic moments. ![]() This is Mark Zeiger’s first time directing, though he acted in Juneau decades ago and performed most recently in the Lynn Canal Community Players’ May 2016 production of “Incorruptible” by Michael Hollinger. This holiday season, new theatre group The Merry Tricksters of Haines will bring the 1966 historical play “The Lion in Winter” by James Goldman to the Chilkat Center for the Arts. ![]() ![]() As a result, about half this list was influenced by Speaking For Ourselves and its follow-up volume, so prepare for a lot of 20th century young adult authors to come up. With that guideline in mind though, it became a real challenge - most of the books on my Goodreads TBR are from authors I've read at least once before, and many more don't necessarily have a second I'm anticipating. What you came for: For this list I'm only including authors who have at least 2 books I actively want to read, because otherwise there were too many options and I might as well just pick randomly off my TBR, as opposed to focusing specifically on the authors. (also, overtime pay as a team lead is awesome)īut I finally got a chance to write this on Sunday, so here we go! It's been insane, but also kinda fun? I am just so high on adrenaline at all times that I have little time to worry, which is great. And we're already down to the last 2 weeks. I haven't even done anything hard yet because it's all been trying to manage training and team changes and various personal crises (not mine), so we've barely gotten into the scoring part. ![]() RainbowstevieOther posts on this awesome topic (thanks Deanna/A Novel Glimpse!) can be found at That Artsy Reader Girl.Īn update on me: this particular work project has been NUTS with schedule changes and overtime so I've barely been online, except for lost-book-hunting on Reddit & Goodreads. ![]() ![]() ![]() Synchronous: Online courses structured with designated meeting dates and times. ![]() Note: some online classes are offered in a manner that requires extra fees (noted in red in search results).

It's an easy read, barely over a hundred pages. You could cross out the title word Art and write LOVE & Fear, and the same concepts apply. Earn it.Įverything I read in this book could also apply to the art of relationship. Stop coveting other peoples talent, skills, lessons. ![]() In talking about other's "magic" in their work the authors write: "Their magic is theirs. The writers explore the human need for acceptance, fear of failure, communication sensibilities between your work and yourself versus your work and the outside world. Specifically, it uses art and fear to talk about how our choice to have courage or not drives the degree of light you will manifest in your own life.
