Nine years ago, Lt. Commander Ky, a test pilot from the future, was flung back in time to a world that never existed. In this world, Carthage won the Punic Wars and Rome was all but destroyed, pushed back to a corner of the British Isles. That war is over. With Ky's help, the Romans formed a new Britannic Empire, defeated the mighty Carthaginian Empire, and set up a new paradigm in Europe.

In naher Zukunft schlägt ein Komet auf der Erde ein und löscht die Sonne aus. Auch sieben Jahre später ist die Welt dunkel, eisige Landschaften prägen den nunmehr lebensfeindlichen Planeten. Und dann kamen sie, tierische Kreaturen, die vor nichts zurückschreckten, um die Welt, wie wir sie kannten, zu zerstören.

Dans ses mémoires, Travis Barker, batteur du groupe de rock multi disque de platine Blink-182, se met à nu, ne dissimulant rien des hauts et des bas de sa vie artistique et personnelle, comme le terrible crash d'avion qui l'a pratiquement tué et le long cheminement pour se remettre de ce traumatisme. Tout a changé dans la vie de Travis Barker avec la célébrité. Mais la gloire a aussi ses revers sombres : son mariage surexposé qui vole en éclats, et les tournées interminables qui le rendent accro à la drogue.

Mars is changing. Seemingly overnight the once "Red" planet is turning to gray. Something is happening, something unnatural. A team of, literally, rocket scientists figure out a way to send a probe, very fast, to Mars to determine how and why it is changing. However, when the probe is destroyed well short of the formerly red planet, it's apparent that Mars is being used as a staging ground. The only viable target for that staging ground is Earth.  

This provocative collection, edited by acclaimed media psychology writer Travis Langley and with a foreword by the legendary Stan Lee, examines the complex psychological and political choices made by Captain America and Iron Man throughout their careers, culminating in Marvel's superhero civil war which spreads far beyond the Avengers themselves.

Travis Alabanza examines seven phrases people have directed at them about their gender identity. These phrases have stayed with them over the years. Some are deceptively innocuous, some deliberately loaded or offensive, some celebratory; sentences that have impacted them for better and for worse; sentences that speak to the broader issues raised by a world that insists that gender must be a binary. Through these seven phrases, which include some of their most transformative experiences as a Black, mixed-race, non-binary person, Travis Alabanza turns a mirror back on society.

This thought-provoking anthology offers a close examination of the psychology behind the intricate narrative and compelling characters in author George R.R. Martin's best-selling work, A Song of Ice and Fire, and the popular HBO TV series based upon his books, Game of Thrones. In Martin's richly detailed world, deceit, manipulation, and greed rule the day, and almost everyone fights for power over the realm or simply over their own lives. How do love and hate, good and evil, need and greed, altruism and narcissism drive the very best and very worst human behaviors?

Most companies are buying AI tools. Almost none of them have the data, processes, or systems in place for those tools to deliver. The CRM is a mess. The processes aren't written down. The tribal knowledge is locked in three people's heads. Then the AI gets layered on top, and nobody understands why it doesn't work. AI-Ready or Not is the show about fixing the foundation first. Host Travis Scott talks with founders, operators, authors, and practitioners about how they're actually using AI. What's working. What's not. What they had to do to make it work. New episodes every two weeks.

A place for comedy and creativity to pump out audio love babies. Skits and sketches and a few recurring.

And, of course, he's brought marines and lots of them.

If you've ever picked up a hymn book, the chances are that you've sung a song written by a blind girl - and not just any blind girl. As a young child, Fanny Crosby knew nothing of the sighted world around her but that didn't stop her interacting with nature, experiencing the thrill of God's creation. She held her grandmother's hand, but she thought that was because Grandmother needed her help not the other way around.

A "close-up look at the cloistered country" (USA Today), See You Again in Pyongyang is American writer Travis Jeppesen's "probing" and "artful" (New York Times Book Review) chronicle of his travels in North Korea--an eye-opening portrait that goes behind the headlines about Trump and Kim...
