![]() ![]() ![]() No Bears, which was filmed in secret, is a brilliant, layered drama - and an idiosyncratic self portrait. In 'No Bears', a banned filmmaker takes bold aim at Iranian society: In 2010, Iranian the authorities charged Jafar Panahi with making anti-government propaganda. This elite runner wants to change that: Champion distance runner Lauren Fleshman says too many coaches assume - falsely - that what works for male athletes also benefits female athletes. Our weekend show emphasizes interviews with writers, filmmakers, actors and musicians, and often includes excerpts from live in-studio concerts. ![]() Lauren Fleshman's memoir, Good for a Girl: A Woman Running in a Man's World, is a critique of how the sports world treats female athletes.įresh Air Weekend highlights some of the best interviews and reviews from past weeks, and new program elements specially paced for weekends. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In his evil endeavors to steal Stark's technology and Iron Man's armor, the Mandarin led a group of villains consisting of Dreadknight, Blizzard, Blacklash, Grey Gargoyle (when it comes to fighting Iron Man and his team, he has a tendency to accidentally turn his fellow villains to stone), Hypnotia (an exclusive villain whom Dreadknight and Blacklash were rivals for the affections of), Whirlwind, Living Laser, MODOK, Fin Fang Foom, and Justin Hammer. The first season of Iron Man featured little more than a Masters of the Universe-style battle of "good against evil", as billionaire industrialist Tony Stark battled the evil forces of the world-conquering Mandarin as the armored superhero, Iron Man. ![]() The result was a massively changed premise, tone, and general approach, which left the disparate seasons scarcely recognizable as being two halves of the same series. Although only lasting two seasons, Iron Man was the subject of a major overhaul between seasons when its production studio was changed. ![]() ![]() Those X-ray results were then reviewed to identify those who had OPTX. The patients were identified by a query of all pneumothoraces in our trauma registry. This is a retrospective review of all trauma patients in a Level I university trauma center during a 5-year period. This in turn may guide the practitioner with the decision to observe these patients. We conducted a 5-year review of our OPTX incidence and asked if an objective score could be developed to better quantify the OPTX. The overall reported incidence is about 5% to 8% of all trauma patients. ![]() ![]() ![]() The OPTX is defined as a pneumothorax not identified on plain chest X-ray but detected by CT scan. The incidence of occult pneumothorax (OPTX) has dramatically increased since the widespread use of computed tomography (CT) scanning. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Bushman, a lifelong member of the LDS Church who earned his degree at Harvard University, was one of this band of well-schooled scholars. Still embryonic in the 1950s, this intellectual wave did not fully take shape as a movement until a substantial cohort of young members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah (the LDS Church), and the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints headquartered in Independence, Missouri (the RLDS Church), earned their doctorates in history from reputable graduate schools outside the Mormon culture region. Joseph Smith: Rough Stone Rolling, Richard Lyman Bushman’s biography of the Mormon prophet Joseph Smith, is the crowning achievement of the new Mormon history, an intellectual and historiographical movement that carried the story of the Latter-day Saints into the cultural mainstream just as Mormonism itself was moving in from the margins to find a place on the American religious landscape as a respectable belief system and an upstanding faith community. ![]() ![]() Thanks for shopping with Backstreet Records!īook Bundle 2: Born to Run + CD + bonus poster If arranging an exchange for merchandise that is not damaged or defective (such as needing a different T-shirt size), we do ask that the customer cover additional shipping costs.

Scottsdale, Arizona, may not be the liveliest place on earth, but it’s never been as dead as this. The New York Times bestselling Cupcake Bakery Mysteries bake up sweet surprises, but as the series continues, Mel and Angie are in for a fresh batch of trouble… ![]() ![]() In his fascinating new book 21 Lessons for the 21st Century, the historian Yuval Noah Harari creates a useful framework for confronting these fears. Although most of us don’t need to lose too much sleep over bears these days, modern life does present plenty of other reasons for concern: terrorism, climate change, the rise of A.I., encroachments on our privacy, even the apparent decline of international cooperation. This is not necessarily a bad thing-after all, if a bear is stalking you, worrying about it may well save your life. How are we to arm ourselves in order to have a voice in such discussions? Who’s going to make the decisions that will affect not only our children but maybe the fate of humanity? Each society needs to deal with its own issues, but we also have very pressing global problems. Anyone you talk to will readily admit that the world it’s facing many challenges. ![]() ![]() ![]() The book continues to live: High school kids and college students read it for class, while African novelists read it to pursue its ideas and themes. Not only did it sell - nearly 10 million copies, in 50 languages - this slim, understated volume became the one African novel to break, unambiguously, into the often impenetrable Western canon. The book eventually released, “Things Fall Apart,” became a critical hit in Britain as well as the first African novel to break through to the English-speaking world. These pages, after several rejections, later found their way to a sympathetic publisher. ![]() ![]() The manuscript sat untouched for months, until a colleague rescued it during a visit to Britain. About a half-century ago, a shy young Nigerian man, who had grown up reading Dickens and “Pilgrim’s Progress,” put his handwritten novel in the mail to a typing service in London. ![]() ![]() ![]() “I believe that entertainment is an overrated function of art and we should be challenged by what we view and read.”- Simon Pegg Stephanie Blake is the author and illustrator of seven picture books in the Simon series and dozens of highly successful books in France, many of them children’s favorites. “Likely to stop even non-bookish kids in their tracks”- The Guardian, ‘The Best Picture books for Children’ Perfect to read aloud and giggle together as a family or for beginning readers who will enjoy the bold and simple text.
