Narda Pitkethly created a system that profoundly simplifies learning how to read. Watch how her system reduces illiteracy and many of its negative consequences. Narda Pitkethly moved to Japan after college and discovered the Japanese had created a simple method of learning to read, called Hiragana. Through their method, Narda learned to read Japanese in a week. Within three months, her comprehension allowed her to communicate freely in her home city of Fukuoka.
In 1988 Narda moved from Japan to Sun Valley because the small community and year-round outdoor activities enticed her. An accomplished glassblower, she often travels to Boise to create works of art.
When her daughter was identified as a challenged reader in the first grade, Narda discovered that English is one of the hardest languages in the world to learn to read, even for native speakers. Narda analyzed the English alphabet to understand why it is so difficult (1 in 4 children grow up without learning to read). She organized the letters in the same way the Japanese organized their Hiragana characters. Narda reveals an approach to the English language you have never seen before.

Marc talked about the process of learning a foreign language and the different levels of fluency. He will show that there is a higher realm of language proficiency and explain what it takes to reach this “native” point where the benefits far surpass mere communication skills. Marc’s passion is the study of languages, their manifestation in local dialects, as well as their expression in poetry and folkloric song. He has acquired a near-native proficiency in six languages and their sub-forms and has given various musical performances.

Whacky colour changes, magic disappearing water, blowing up dustbins, clouds of steam, thunder air explosions. Are you ready to fasten your seatbelts and enjoy the ‘explosive’ journey?
In his talk, Andrew aims to promote chemistry as the science of remarkable changes, which are often overlooked yet so important in our everyday life. And he does it brilliantly by performing an incredible series of 25 experiments in 15 minutes, totally amazing the audience (who rewards him with a long and deserved standing ovation)!
Andrew Z. Szydło is an internationally acclaimed chemistry teacher. But he’s definitely not the typical chemistry teacher you would expect…
He holds a PhD in the History and Philosophy of Science from UCL, and is an expert on the history of alchemy (his 1994 book ‘Water Which Does Not Wet Hands’ is considered to be the standard reference work on the Polish alchemist Michael Sendivogius.)
But his polymath spirit extends further: he’s a violin, bugle and accordion player, as well as a professional photographer. Throughout the years Andrew has wowed audiences all around the world with his pyrotechnical approach to teaching and demonstrating chemical sciences on stage and has appeared many times on TV.

— Новый выпуск «Уроков истории с Тамарой Эйдельман» посвящен лету и осени 1917 года, тем месяцам, когда Россия переживала острейший кризис, и судьба ее висела на волоске — маятник мог качнуться в одну сторону — если бы победил Корнилов и установил свою диктатуру ( а смог бы?) или в другую — как и произошло, когда пришли к власти большевики. Были ли другие варианты? Как можно объяснить именно такое развитие событий? Об этом речь в новом выпуске «Уроков истории».

For decades, Dr. Andrea Pennington hid her battle with depression and anxiety. As a popular American medical journalist and TV host she survived her high powered media career as a functional depressive. Denying her true passion for artistic expression became so painful that she hit rock bottom with depression and burnout. In despair she went on a journey that led to a surprising musical epiphany, an out of body experience and an awakening, which helped her reconnect to the essence of her Authentic Self. This inspired her to go on a journey of inner work, self-exploration and self-expression.
Now, Dr. Andrea speaks globally to reduce the stigma of mental illness and to support people on their journey to overcoming trauma and embracing authentic living. She also sings and teaches the principles of real self love through the non-profit Real Self Love Movement as part of her mission to help as many people as possible whove also battled self-hatred, imposter syndrome and depression.
Dr. Andrea Pennington is an integrative physician, acupuncturist, meditation teacher and international bestselling author of several books. She is also a documentary filmmaker, visionary brand strategist for Light workers and Founder of the #RealSelfLove Movement. Andreas latest book and song, both entitled I Love You, Me!, explores her personal journey from depression to real self-love.
As shared in her first inspiring TEDx talk entitled Become Who You Really Are, Andrea candidly explains that overcoming long history of hidden depression and anxiety came via an out-of-body near death-line experience which allowed her to break free to love and express her authentic self. She believes that true happiness comes from within and it comes naturally when we integrate our whole being.
As a sought-after media personality Dr. Andrea has shared her candid, empowering insights on vitality and resilience on the Oprah Winfrey Show, the Dr. Oz Show, iTV This Morning, C NN, the Today Show, LUXE-TV, Thrive Global and HuffingtonPost and as a news anchor for Discovery Health Channel. She also produced a 4-part documentary series entitled Simple Steps to a Balanced Natural Pregnancy.
Leveraging her 20 years of experience in broadcast and digital media she proudly helps people bring their brilliance to the world through publishing and media production. Her 21-Day Compassion Meditation Series is useful in breaking down barriers to self-love and deep intimacy. She is also the creator of The Attunement Meditation Process, a 5-step mindfulness meditation taught online and used around the world to lower stress, boost resilience and enhance intimacy.

По статистике журнала Fortune (от 10 ноября 1986 года) Майкл Франчезе – сын знаменитого Джона «Сонни» Франчезе и самый молодой из всех мафиози – занимал 18-ое место в списке 50-ти самых влиятельных и состоятельных боссов мафии. На посту капитана преступной семьи Коломбо он промышлял бензиновым рэкетом и получал по $6-8 000 000 в неделю, продавая миллиарды галлонов по заниженным ценам. Майкл также получал регулярную прибыль с ростовщиков и букмекеров, спортивных агентств, автодилеров и мастерских, ресторанов, ночных клубов и профсоюзов. На полный перечень изощрённых операций молодого Франчезе ушла целая страница журнала.
Он стал первым и единственным человеком, кто – без защиты властей – сумел остаться в живых после ухода из мафии. Долгие годы он боролся в суде с самым известным и безжалостным прокурором Нью-Йорка Рудольфом Джулиани, но вопреки всем его доказательствам и показаниям информаторов от ФБР, Франчезе всегда добивался оправдательного приговора. После четырех неудачных попыток посадить мафиози в тюрьму, власти решили пойти с ним на сделку. Так, вместо 150-300 лет за решеткой Майкл получил всего 10, из которых отсидел 8 лет.
После тюрьмы он начал новую жизнь: стал автором нескольких книг, обрел сильную веру и даже записался в священники. В настоящее время он работает над целым рядом проектов, включая два сериала про мафию, одну постановку в Лас-Вегасе и новый фильм с Томом Хэнксом.
