I přes rozsáhlé pátrání nenalezne policie jediné vodítko, co se s ní mohlo stát. Tragická událost rezonuje s životy místních a ani neúprosně uplývající čas nedokáže umlčet otázky, k čemu ten večer skutečně došlo. Někteří si představují, že dívčino tělo leží na dně jednoho z rezervoárů, jíní jsou přesvědčeni, že nastoupila do auta k nějakému cizinci, či prostě utekla a žije někde jinde. Důkazy, které by mohly vést k rozuzlení případu, jsou neprůkazné a obraz dívky se postupně mění v jakýsi stín minulých událostí, který však v životě komunity ve zlomových okamžicích znovu ožívá.

The Dubliner has achieved more in three years with the UFC than anyone in the 20 year history of the organization. From an unknown prospect to the first man to hold two world titles simultaneously, McGregor''s knockout-filled march through the featherweight and lightweight rankings sent shockwaves through the world. But as effortless as McGregor''s heroics seem, his journey was far from smooth. Just another teenager trading martial arts techniques with his friends, he chased a pipe dream with little promise of reward. No one guessed he would become the biggest pay-per-view attraction in the world. This is not another tale of an athlete born exceptional and groomed for success. It is about how one young man, through bloody-minded determination and indomitable spirit, changed the whole game.

A clarion call about the dangers of medicine for women, as well as a manual for how women can get the right care for their bodies.Sex Matters tackles one of the most urgent, yet unspoken issues facing women''s health care today: all models of medical research and practice are based on male-centric models that ignore the unique biological and emotional differences between men and women - an omission that endangers women''s lives. The facts surrounding how male-centric medicine impacts women''s health every day are chilling: in the ER, women are more likely to receive a psychiatric diagnosis with regard to opioid use, while men are more likely to be referred for detoxification; the more vocal women become about their pain, the more likely their providers are to prescribe either inadequate or inappropriate pain relief medication; women often present with nontraditional symptoms of stroke, which causes delays in recognition by both them and their health professionals; and a government accountability study found that 80% of drugs that are withdrawn from the market are due to side effects that happen to women (a result of testing drugs mostly on men).Leading expert on sex and gender medicine Dr Alyson McGregor focuses on the key areas where these differences are most potentially harmful, addressing:· Cardiac and stroke diagnosis and treatment in women; · Prescription and dosing of pharmaceuticals;· Subjective evaluation of women''s symptoms; · Pain and pain management;· Hormones and female biochemistry (including prescribed hormones); · How economic status, race, and gender identity are additional critical factors.Not only does Dr McGregor explore these disparities in depth, she shares clear, practical suggestions for what we can do. A work of riveting expose, revelatory insights into the medical establishment and actionable guidance for putting this information to use, Sex Matters is an empowering roadmap for reinventing modern medicine - and for self-care.(P)2020 Hachette Audio

Cecil Thomas is convicted for the crime, but his trial leaves more questions than answers. As much as his daughter Liz McGregor tries to move beyond her grief - she finds new work, she even discovers love - she still wants answers. What drove Thomas to torture and kill a complete stranger?The author meets the murderer''s family and discovers that he comes from a loving, comfortable home. He is educated and skilled, there is no apparent reason for his descent into delinquency. After protracted obstruction from the prison authorities, she finally gets to confront him but not without putting herself in danger. She finds answers, but not the answers she is looking for.Unforgiven tells a story seldom told: what happens to a family when one of their own is murdered? In a country where, year upon year, tens of thousands of people lose a loved one to violence. Where restorative justice is preached but not practiced. Where prisons are universities of crime. What would it take to achieve redemption? For the victim, the perpetrator and the country?

Over the past decade, Jon Alexander’s consultancy, the New Citizenship Project, has helped revitalise some of Britain’s biggest organisations including the Co-op, the Guardian and the National Trust. Here, with the New York Timesbestselling writer Ariane Conrad, he shows how history is about to enter the age of the Citizen. Because when our institutions treat people as creative, empowered creatures rather than consumers, everything changes. Unleashing the power of everyone equips us to face the challenges of economic insecurity, climate crisis, public health threats, and polarisation. Citizens is an upbeat handbook, full of insights, clear examples to follow, and inspiring case studies, from the slums of Kenya to the backstreets of Birmingham – and a foreword by Brian Eno. It is the perfect pick-me-up for leaders, founders, elected officials – and citizens everywhere. An ideal companion to the groundbreaking books Doughnut Economics and Radical Help. Organise and seize the future! Reviews ''Every great transformation requires a new story. A story that reveals new possibilities and points toward an optimistic alternative to the current situation. Citizens presents just such a story.'' – Tim Brown, Chair of IDEO and author of Change By Design ''The shift from consumer to citizen is a truly big idea. If you’re in a position of strategic influence, I strongly recommend you engage with this and consciously explore what it might mean for your organisation.'' – Dame Fiona Reynolds DBE, Former Director General, National Trust, and Trustee, BBC ''The belief that every single one of us has both the potential and the desire to make the world better drives me every day, in everything I do. In Citizens, Jon shows how taking that belief as a starting point really could transform our world. This is a truly powerful book, in every sense of the word.'' - Josh Babarinde, Forbes 30 Under 30 Social Entrepreneur ''There is such a thing as an idea whose time has come. This is that idea.'' – James Perry, Board Member, B Lab Global, and Founding Partner, Snowball Investment Management About the Authors JON ALEXANDER began his career with success in advertising, winning the prestigious Big Creative Idea of the Year before making a dramatic change. Driven by a deep need to understand the impact on society of 3,000 commercial messages a day, he gathered three Masters degrees, exploring consumerism and its alternatives from every angle. In 2014, he co-founded the New Citizenship Project to bring the resulting ideas into contact with reality. In Citizens, he is ready to share them with the world. BRIAN ENO is an artist, philosopher and Citizen who has played a critical part in British culture since the early 1970s. He is a deep believer in the power of ideas and the possibility of a better world. His latest book is What Art Does. Buy the book and start readingForeword. Brian Eno sets out the value of Citizens in framing a new, optimistic cooperative story for our age, as opposed to the two other options: authoritarian states such as China and "Siliconia" - "a Consumer state with centralised power and deep surveillance". Mentions Citizen Story 1. Opening. Jon Alexander sets out the need to ''step into'' the Citizen Story so that we can deal with the many challenges of our age: economic insecurity, ecological emergency, public health threats, political polarisation, and more. Mentions citizens, economic insecurity, ecological emergency 2. Citizens Everywhere. How humans are bound together through interdependence and reciprocity, and in turn have a deep bond with nature, which conventional big business cannot understand. Picks apart the self-dependence and utilitarian philosophy of tech billionaires Peter Thiel and Mark Zuckerberg 3. Citizens By Nature. Central to the Citizen Story is a belief in ourselves and in human nature as creative, capable, and caring, rather than lazy, self-interested, and competitive within a zero-sum framework. Any redesign of institutions will fail if we haven’t embraced this fundamental belief 4. We''re All Consumers Now.

Začněte praktikovat mindfulness a zlepšete své zdraví, soustředění i radost z každého dne, zatímco snížíte hladinu stresu. Tím nejpovolanějším průvodcem vám bude profesor Jon Kabat-Zinn, zakladatel moderního programu všímavosti.Mindfulness, neboli meditace všímavosti, je duševní trénink zaměřený na prožívání přítomného okamžiku. Její blahodárné účinky na zdraví a psychickou pohodu jsou vědecky prokázané. Praktikují ji známé osobnosti jako Al Gore, Clint Eastwood, Oprah Winfreyová nebo ragbista Jonny Wilkinson. O mindfulness píší světová média (Time, Scientific American, Newsweek), firmy jako Google či Twitter svým zaměstnancům hradí kurzy a stovky nemocnic po celém světě zavádějí léčebné programy založené na jejích principech.Kabat-Zinn, který v roce 1979 založil na Massachusettské univerzitě Kliniku snižování stresu, stojí u zrodu programu MBSR (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction). Ten kombinuje prvky buddhistické meditace a jógy a využívá se dnes v více než 720 zdravotnických zařízeních po celém světě.

Knihu doprovází audio nahrávka českého lektora Jaroslava Chýleho, která vám usnadní začátky meditační praxe.Jon Kabat-Zinn (*1944) je emeritním profesorem medicíny na Massachusettské univerzitě. Je autorem osmi knih přeložených do 30 jazyků a vedl výcvik mnoha byznysmenů, olympioniků i osobností veřejného života.

Kniha je společným dílem tří špičkových profesionálních hráčů pokerových multi-table turnajů na internetu, kteří mají odehrány desítky tisíc turnajů a na svém kontě více než 1 800 finálových stolů a stovky velkých výher. Pojďme si je nyní představit: Eric "Rizen" Lynch patří již léta mezi naprostou špičku turnajového pokeru. Přestože se věnuje především hře na internetu, má za sebou i celou řadu velkých úspěchů v živém pokeru a celkově si na své konto v živých turnajích připsal bezmála 1 000 000$. Ještě úspěšnější je Eric na internetu, kde má na svém kontě více než 50 vítězství a celkové výhry přes 1 500 000$. Jon "PearlJammer" Turner je hráč, kterého také není třeba pokerové veřejnosti příliš představovat. Američan - který nyní sídlí a hraje online poker z Mexika - za svou kariéru potrefoval na internetu více než 200 turnajů a jeho celkové výhry dosahují závratných šesti milionů dolarů. Přestože se také specializuje především na online multi-table pokerové turnaje, nevyhýbá se ani živé hře. I tam je velice úspěšný a za svou kariéru si prozatím v živých turnajích připsal více než jeden milion dolarů. Jon "Apestyles" Van Fleet je dalším z trojice mladých úspěšných profesionálních hráčů. Jeho výhry v online pokerových turnajích, kde zaznamenal více než 130 vítězství, již přesáhli hranici 5 000 000$. Autorskou trojici doplňuje jako spoluautor majitel vydavatelství Dimat Enterprises, Inc., provozovatel pokerových webových stránek a autor řady pokerových knih Matthew Hilger. I ten se zhruba před deseti lety věnoval pokeru na plný úvazek jako profesionál a na svém kontě má několik větších úspěchů. Postupně se však začal více a více věnovat dalším aktivitám souvisejících s pokerem a své hraní pokeru omezoval. Na co se v knize mohou čtenáři těšit? Kniha "Poker - tajemství hry na internetu" je napsána v unikátním formátu. Na čtenáře čeká celkem 50 pokerových hand pocházejících ze skutečně odehraných turnajů. Autoři knihy komentují průběh každé odehrané handy od samotného počátku před flopem až do jejího konce, analyzují jednotlivá rozhodnutí a navrhují nejlepší možná zahrání. U každé handy si tak čtenáři mohou přečíst, jak by se v dané situaci zachovali hned tři špičkoví turnajoví profesionálové! Díky tomu mají čtenáři jedinečnou příležitost takříkajíc z první ruky sledovat, jaké faktory při rozhodování zvažují v obtížných situacích ti nejlepší pokeroví hráči. Již po přečtení prvních několika hand je zřejmé, že tajemství úspěšné hry spočívá především v důkladné analýze situace u stolu. Kniha čtenáře naučí, jak správně uvažovat v klíčových situacích, kde záleží nejen na relativní síle kombinace, ale především také na pozici jednotlivých hráčů a velikost jejich stacků. Kromě toho je nutné brát v úvahu také skoky ve výplatní struktuře, které v pozdních fázích turnajů bývají obvykle již značné.
