Dominantní narativ o rasových vztazích v USA dnes říká, že hlavní nebezpečí pro životy černochů představuje bělošský rasismus, zejména násilnický a rasistický rasismus policistů. Podle tohoto názoru je Amerika beznadějně rasistický národ. Vznikla organizace Black Lives Matter (BLM), která vede protesty a dokonce i nepokoje v reakci na případy, kdy běloch, zejména policista, zabije černocha. Kniha Taleeba Starkese Black Lies Matter: Proč jsou lži důležité pro průmysl rasových stížností, je odvážným, prozíravým a pravdivým popisem narůstajících rasových konfliktů a její zásadní poselství má význam pro život nebo smrt. Jeden z nejpoutavějších bodů knihy - podložený množstvím důkazů - se týká toho, co je zdaleka nejvážnějším nebezpečím pro životy černých Američanů: černošští grázlové. Tvrdá data jsou ohromující a děsivá zároveň: Černoši, kteří tvoří 13 procent obyvatel USA, zabijí 90 procent černošských obětí vražd. Běloši, Asiaté a Latinoameričané, kteří tvoří 87 % populace, zabijí 10 % černošských obětí vražd. Již tento bod sám o sobě stačí k vyvrácení tvrzení, že rasističtí běloši jsou dominantní hrozbou pro životy černých Američanů. Je to ještě horší. Starkes píše: \"Čísla vypovídají jen část příběhu této převážně městské války, kde se oběti [až] nápadně podobají svým vrahům\".

Kdybych matce řekla, že na to nemám čas, tak se mnou už v životě nepromluví!Podobná prohlášení důvěrně znají mnozí z nás. Potýkají se s kulturně podmíněným vzorcem chování, kvůli němuž jsou přesvědčeni, že musejí za každých okolností všem vycházet vstříc na úkor vlastních potřeb. To vede k pocitům úzkosti, ztráty identity, k potlačovanému vzteku a někdy i k vyhoření. Kniha odlehčeným, zábavným způsobem pomocí nově vytvořené humorné terminologie uvažuje o příčinách tohoto postoje a nabízí řešení spočívající v různých aspektech respektování vlastních hranic a potřeb. Zabývá se důvody, proč je tak obtížné něco odmítnout, zejména blízkým osobám, tělesnými projevy odmítnutí a spouštěči tohoto rozpoložení. Analyzuje různé druhy „ne“ a jednotlivé oblasti, v nichž je potřeba jednoznačně odmítnout. Jedná se například o vymezení vůči dětem, žadatelům o finanční příspěvek, rodičům, bývalým partnerům, sousedům, přátelům nebo zvířatům. Pojednává také o rizicích a vedlejších účincích odmítnutí a nabízí celou typologii osob, vůči kterým je potřeba si nastavit funkční hranice. Věnuje se též špatnému svědomí po odmítnutí. „Lékárnička odmítání“ v závěrečné části knihy obsahuje: pomoc při rozhodování, vhodné odmítací formulace, jak získat čas, kdy je potřeba zalhat a návod, jak si vést „odmítací deník“ či „vision board“, kde si stanovíme, proti čemu je třeba se vymezit.

'Are you happy in your life?' Those are the last words Jason Dessen hears before the masked abductor knocks him unconscious.

And even if the home he remembers is real, how can Jason possibly make it back to the family he loves?

Kytarový efekt TonePrint je nová řada kompaktních kytarových efektů od TC Electronic, které se mohou chlubit několika zásadními přednostmi. Nejde jen o použití kvalitní elektroniky, široké možnosti nastavení, perfektní zvuk a maximální spolehlivost, ale právě o technologii TonePrint. Tato technologie totiž u většiny pedálů z této řady umožňuje připojit pedály k počítači pomocí USB rozhraní a následně do efektu stáhnout některý z presetů, který byl vytvořen přesně podle zvuku mnoha kytarových legend. Stáhnout si můžete nastavení, které vytvořili například Bumblefoot, Doug Aldrich, Guthrie Govan, Munky, John Petrucci, Orianthi, Paul Gilbert, Steve Morse, Troy Van Leeuwen a další. Dark Matter je kytarový efekt typu Distortion. V jeho schopnostech je dodat vašemu zvuku cokoli od šťavnatého bluesového nakreslní přes pořádný hard-rockový distortion až po metalový hi-gain. Ať jde o hutné doprovody nebo průrazná sóla s nekonečným sustainem, s Dark Matter je pořád budete mít přímo u nohou. Stejně jako všechny efekty z řady TonePrint, i tento má elektroniku zabudovanou v odolném kovovém šasi. Po stranách se nachází vstupní a výstupní konektor, na horní straně jsou umístěny ovladače a masivní spínač, který je zapojen True-Bypass, tudíž ve vypnutém stavu efekt nikterak neovlivňuje signál. O napájení se stará 9V baterie nebo adaptér. Konkrétně Dark Matter nedisponuje technologií TonePrint a USB konektorem. Pro nastavení zvuku zde slouží čtyři potenciometry. Gain a Level slouží k nastavení míry zkreslení a hlasitosti, Bass a Treble jsou 2pásmový ekvalizér určující výraznost basů a výšek. Doplněny jsou spínačem Voice, který mění nastavení středových frekvencí. TC Electronic Dark Matter je velmi kvalitní efektový pedál, který zaujme především zvukovými možnostmi, ale i technickou výbavou. Ve vašem pedalboardu si tak jistě může najít své místo.

Think you already know the story of Charles Dickens' life? Think again. Almost everything you're familiar with was first mentioned in an authorised biography written by Dickens' close friend John Forster 150 years ago. It's the version of events that Dickens himself chose to make public, and newly accessible archives reveal that it's crammed with gaps, inconsistencies, and outright lies. There's the sister whose existence Dickens kept secret and the Jewish relations whose faith he strove to conceal. There's plagiarism, fraud, and suicide. And that's only for starters. Helena Kelly, author of the acclaimed Jane Austen, the Secret Radical, retells Dickens' story from his childhood to his deathbed, uncovers the truths he tried to keep hidden, and offers a fresh - and deeply troubling - perspective on the man who remains one of Britain's best-known novelists. You won't be able to look at him - or his work - in the same way again.
