As a KRI certified Kundalini Yoga Instructor and Reiki Master Teacher, she shares her passion for vibrational medicine through healing sessions, classes, workshops, events and trainings. She is the author of “A Little Bit of Reiki” from Sterling Publishing and the director of vibrational energy healing at The Well in NYC.

In this episode, she shares what it was like to shift from a long-time career in fashion, booking models, and leading photo shoots in her late 30’s to finding her true calling in energy work and more, how she found her way to Kundalini yoga, why her life shifted in a massive way because of it, and why she unexpectedly felt called to become a teacher, how she moved through her own self-judgment and limiting beliefs as she left behind a highly coveted, money-making career for something much less predictable, her journey reinventing herself—from being a black-outfit wearing partier who did drugs—to a being someone led by spirituality, inner wisdom, and wearing white, why she says her success is dependent on the inner work of constantly getting out of her own way, so that she is a clear channel to receive the right clients and opportunities, and so much more!   To learn more about Valerie Oula and the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.   Follow Me On: Facebook Instagram

Monday (05-04-2020) my guests were Shannon and Jason Mullett-Bowlsby, the dynamic DIY duo known as the Shibaguyz… the inspired creators of Shibaguyz Designz Studio. Their award winning crochet, knit, and sewing designs have been featured in and on the covers of dozens of domestic and international publications. Together, the Shibaguyz team has over 300 published patterns and 11 books credited to their name since their first design was featured on a magazine cover in 2010. Currently, they are finishing work on a new book with C&T Publishing scheduled for release December 2020. In addition to their design work, the Shibaguyz are sought-after freelance book-packaging designers having crafted books and photography for major publishing companies like Sterling Publishing, Leisure Arts, and Creative Publishing. The Shibaguyz have been teaching adults for 30+ years. Their enthusiasm, quirky sense of humor, and relatable teaching style have made them sought after teachers in both local and national venues like STITCHES Events, Sew Expo, and Houston Quilt Market. In addition to their live classes, the Shibaguyz also have a wide range of online classes available from Blueprint and Interweave. Shannon and Jason are proud ambassadors for Aurifil, Clover, BERNINA, Horn of America, the Daylight Company, and are members of the Justice League (yes, they have capes to prove it). Shannon and Jason live in Seattle, Washington with their three Shiba Inu who, more or less, support their ventures in sewing, stitching, and crafting… so long as enough time is taken for walks and treats. Full disclosure… the Shibaguyz are not only very creative people, they are also two of my very good friends. So the show did get away from us a bit. It was still fun. Please check it out.

Documentary filmmaker Ron Davis, whose work includes Harry and Snowman and the 2019 release Life in the Doghouse, seeks to tell inspirational true stories that are largely unscripted. Ron’s own journey to becoming a filmmaker might be worth a documentary of its own. Ron grew up riding and competing in the hunter/jumper divisions near his home in northern New Jersey, but left the sport behind to pursue a career in publishing in New York City. He spent 10 years working his way up the ranks, ultimately managing global sales and licensing for both Simon and Schuster and Sterling Publishing, a subsidiary of Barnes and Noble. After seeing a video celebrating a friend’s life, Ron was inspired to create a similar piece as a gift for an equestrian he knew. A filmmaker friend, a producer for the sitcom How I Met Your Mother, saw the piece and recognized that Ron had an innate talent for filmmaking. With his friend’s encouragement, Ron decided to pursue filmmaking in his spare time. In 2009, using his background in sales to help fundraise for the project, Ron co-produced and co-directed his first full-length film, Pageant. The piece debuted on television on The Sundance Channel and played at theaters in New York City.   In 2010, Ron relocated to Wellington, Florida, to pursue filmmaking full time. He founded Docutainment Films, which has produced four full-length documentaries and has several upcoming pieces in pre-production. The FilmRise/Netflix film Harry and Snowman tells the true story of Harry deLeyer and Snowman, a slaughter-bound horse of unknown breeding that deLeyer purchased at the New Holland Auction in Pennsylvania for just $80. Together, the pair wrote their own rags-to-riches story, winning prestigious show jumping competitions. The film premiered at the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival in 2015 before opening to general release in September of 2016. It was a New York Times “Critic’s Pick” and won the Audience Award for Best Documentary at both the Nantucket and Prescott Film Festivals in 2015. Harry and Snowman ultimately became one of 2016’s top-grossing theatrical documentaries.   In 2018, Ron completed Life in the Doghouse, another FilmRise/Netflix production that chronicles the work of equestrians Danny Robertshaw and Ron Danta, who together have rescued over 11,000 abused, abandoned and starving dogs. Danny & Ron’s Rescue finds safe homes for the rescues through their network of horse people and attending horse shows. The film premiered on Netflix in June 2019 and was lauded by the likes of Ellen DeGeneres, who urged her fans and followers to see the film and support Danny & Ron’s Rescue. Ron will donate all the net proceeds from his film to dog charities across the country. He is committed to producing only stories he cares about deeply and looks to craft character-driven pieces which inspire and warm the heart.   Topics of Discussion: [:25] About today’s guest.

What happens when you don't follow your dreams right away? What if you pursue an entirely different path and then remember later on what you had wanted long ago? Ardi Alspach, children's editor at Sterling Publishing, shows us that it's never too late to get back into your field of dreams (sorry...couldn't help it!). She talks to us about her experience in not one, but two different publishing programs, how her experience in publicity has informed her work as an editor, and what it's like to play competitive pool. We also learn the heartwarming story of Ardi's house panther, Merlin. Don't worry...you can see screencaps of Merlin at hybridpubscout.com/episode-24-editor-ardi-alspach. Plus! We chat with hour brand new summer intern (!!!) Amanda about what brought her to the frontier between traditional and indie publishing.

Adam O’Brien is an editor at Sterling Publishing specializing in a variety of non-fiction: all manners of memoir and humorous essay collections, in particular. We chat about the differences between working for a Big 5 house as opposed to a mid-sized one, how nice it is when a celebrity rumored to be a sweetheart actually IS a sweetheart (looking at you, Drew Barrymore) and how working in other areas of publishing convinced him that he truly belonged in the editorial department. Sterling Publishing is an innovative and forward-thinking publishing company committed to creating books that educate, inspire, and entertain. We also chat with former bookseller Tara Lehmann about the fallout from distributor Baker & Taylor's exiting the retail market, leaving indie bookstores scrambling and the big publishers licking their chops and falling all over one another to scoop them up. https://www.sterlingpublishing.com/

Cate Bakos has had her fair share of ups and downs throughout her property investment journey. But what sets her apart is her ability to quickly analyse, break down, and learn from these erroneous decisions. As a recipient of Sterling Publishing's 'high commendation', a finalist for Telstra's Business Woman of the Year, and a National Winner of the Buyer's Agent of the Year, Bakos has proved the worth of these critical lessons. In this podcast Cate Bakos and host Tyrone Shum will discuss the lessons learnt throughout her journey, and how you can use her experiences to improve your own portfolio choices.

Do property professionals ever make bad investment decisions? Of course they do – according to Victor Kumar. He may be the director of a successful buyer’s agency now, making hundreds of offers on properties each and every week, but what happened when Victor woke up one day and realised his cash flow was far too negative. Find out how Victor managed to pick up the pieces, what other mistakes he made along the way, and where he thinks the property market is heading. Join your host @philliptarrant and editor of Sterling Publishing’s mortgage and real estate titles, Vivienne Kelly as they pick the brains of one of Australia’s most respected investment professionals and learn about his personal property portfolio. All this and much more coming up on this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show. Tune in now!

You find a stripper’s pole in the middle of your property during an inspection, there are hand and foot prints on the ceiling and your tenant insists on paying in cash in the middle of the night… Welcome to the weird and wonderful world of Julian Lancey, a teacher, parent to a young baby, masters student and DIY fanatic who insists on self-managing his six-property portfolio. How does Julian get away without spending a cent on marketing his properties? Why does he think the banks need to change their small property finance policies? And what was the worst reno job he’s ever done? All this and much more coming up on this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show. Join your host @philliptarrant and Sterling Publishing’s head of wealth, Russell Stephenson as they chat to Julian in this must-listen episode.

This week on The Smart Property Investment Show @philliptarrant and Sterling Publishing's group publisher, Alex Whitlock are joined by Mitchell Burge - a low-risk investor who has gone to incredible lengths in order to play it safe. With a loan to value ratio hovering around the 58 per cent mark – conservative figures by any measure. No more than two of his 12 investment properties are with one bank, and he owes no more than $900,000 with one lender. Australia has some of the most resilient banks in the world, so why is Mitchell being so cautious? And will his strategy backfire when it comes to future portfolio growth? That’s not all. The 32-year-old’s air conditioning business is profitable, and his portfolio is neutrally geared and set to deliver massive future returns, but he still chooses to draw the same salary as he did five years ago – preferring instead to keep the extra earnings for a rainy day. What’s his end game – and is playing it safe the smart move, or is Mitchell’s strategy overkill in the current interest rate environment? All this and more coming up on this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show.

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show we’re given a rare insight into the investment portfolio of Australian cricketer, Stephen O’Keefe. Elite sports. It takes a lot of time and effort to get to the top, and the base salary mightn’t be anything special, but when a win comes through, it can feel like you’ve won the lottery. When a young Stephen O’Keefe found himself pocketing $100,000 in winnings, he couldn’t believe his luck. Like most men in their mid-twenties, his thoughts immediately turned to the lavish lifestyle perks such a payout could afford, with a new luxury car at the top of the list. But a combination of factors stopped him from blowing it all, and turned his focus to property investment instead. Six years later, and with a portfolio of 10 properties to his name, Stephen shares the highs and lows of his investment story with @philliptarrant and Sterling Publishing’s group publisher, Alex Whitlock. What was the motivation behind Stephen’s foray into property investment, how was he able to avoid the temptation to splash his earnings living life in the fast lane, and what would he change if he had his time over? All this and much more on this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show.

Today’s podcast episode is motivated by Aimee’s desire to have all of her listeners hear her guest’s story. Kara Gott Warner, Creative Knitting Magazine Executive Editor, and host of Power Purls Podcast, began her career designing knitting patterns in 2002. Her designs have been published in several magazines, including: Creative Knitting, Vogue Knitting, Family Circle Easy Knitting and Interweave Knits. Kara has a background as a technical illustrator, working with craft book publishers such as Random House, Lark Books, Sterling Publishing and F+W. Kara first joined Annie's Publishing in 2008 as knitting book editor, and then in 2010 signed on as Executive Editor of Creative Knitting Magazine and Annie’s knitting publications. Through Power Purls Podcast, Kara's mission is to dig deep and ask those burning questions about what turned her guests on to the “two sticks and fiber,” in the first place, and what keeps their needles moving! TWEET: If you just focus on one small aspect of your industry, it’s going to be hard ~ Kara Gott Warner The negative power of pigeonholing yourself. When Kara Gott Warner began working full time as editor of Creative Knitting Magazine, she became aware of the ease with which knitters could pigeonhole themselves. To her, it seemed that too many would lump themselves into a certain skill category and feel that they were unable to move from there. Kara felt that the categories needed to be broader, so she created new categories to enable people to more easily move from one to the next without as much fear of stepping out of their comfort zone. Isn’t that a great parable for life? We all too easily think of ourselves in one set way when the reality is that each of us has the ability to grow, mature, and increase in skill so that we are not today what we were tomorrow. Hear more of Kara’s insights on this episode. Luck is when preparation meets opportunity. It’s common nowadays for people to talk about the impossibility of overnight success and today’s guest, Kara Gott Warner agrees. Her journey from an unhappy financier to editor of Creative Knitting Magazine was almost a decade long. She attributes the success she’s experienced to constant motion in the same direction. She wasn’t standing still. She was moving toward what she wanted, preparing herself, learning, growing in the skills it would take to become what she wanted to be. In this episode Kara unpacks her thoughts about how that happened in her own journey and gives some advice about the importance of preparing yourself for the future while you’re waiting for the opportunities to come. TWEET: I was on a trajectory I didn’t like and my husband encouraged me to quit ~ Kara Gott Warner When you truly care about something you just can’t quit. Kara Gott Warner had a reintroduction to knitting in her early 20s. It became a place of solace and personal therapy for her at the end of a hard or busy day. She fell in love with knitting and began designing patterns of her own. But it wasn’t long before she realized that she wanted to somehow make her love for knitting into a career. That might sound crazy because knitting doesn’t sound like a very lucrative business niche, and it’s not. But Kara didn’t care about that. Her desire was to always have knitting be near the center of her life and that included  her work. So she set out in that direction and never looked back. Even though hard times came, she didn’t allow herself to become discouraged because she cared about knitting so much.  Aimee does a great job of drawing out Kara’s story and the lessons she’s learned on her way to the top, so be sure you listen in to this inspiring episode. Looking back, what things would you change? Most of us have missteps or regrets of one kind or another - both small and more serious. But when Aimee asked  her guest, Kara Gott Warner what she would change if she could start her journey over, Kara said, “Not a thing.” She believes that everything she’s been through has been for her own growth and development and that if any of those things were magically changed, she wouldn’t be the person she is today. Now THAT is a refreshing perspective, and Kara’s full of them. You can hear the entire conversation Aimee had with Kara, Editor of Creative Knitting Magazine, on this episode of Chasing Dreams.

Il y a deux semaines, nous avons parlé de l’histoire du Chaos, sans tropnous perdre tout au long du chemin, en abordant le livre de James Gleick “La Théorie du Chaos”. Ce livre avait été choisi par vous, lespoditeurs, via le sondage que j’avais proposé sur le site deLisezLaScience. Au cours de son récit, James Gleick nous racontait lavie des pionniers du Chaos, tous ces hommes et femmes qui ont passé dutemps à découvrir comment le Chaos émergeait dans les sciences etcomment le dompter pour en apprendre plus sur les phénomènes qu’ilrégissait.Aujourd’hui nous changeons totalement de domaine ! Avec “Le Beau Livre de laMédecine : Des sorciers guérisseurs à la microchirurgie”, CliffordPickover nous emmène à travers 12 000 ans d’histoire de la médecine.Nous apprendrons comment cette science s’est développée et noustraiterons de l’histoire de ces femmes et ces hommes qui ont cherché àcomprendre et soigner les maux qui ont émaillés l’Histoire del’Humanité.

Si je le précise c’est parce que dans la foulée de l’obtention de sondoctorat, il a intégré IBM et notamment le Thomas J. Watson ResearchCenter en 1982. On pourrait se dire, IBM est une société avec unequantité de labs et pourquoi pas. Ce qu’il faut savoir, c’est que chezIBM, il a notamment intégré le groupe sur la synthèse vocale. Assez loin de son sujet de thèse… Mais pourquoi pas !Clifford Pickover est un auteur prolifique : depuis 1990, il a publié un ouvrage par an minimum (sauf en 1993) et a même culminé à trois par annotamment en 2009 avec “Jews in Hyperspace”, “The Loom of God” et “TheMath Book: From Pythagoras to the 57th Dimension, 250 Milestones in theHistory of Mathematics” qui fut publié en français sous le titre : “LeBeau Livre des Maths - De Pythagore à la 57e dimension”. Il est bon denoter que ce dernier livre obtint le Prix Neumann de la British Societyfor the History of Mathematics en 2011. Le livre dont je fais une revueaujourd’hui est construit de la même manière que celui-ci : il s’agit de la présentation des évènements qui ont marqué, selon l’auteur, le champ scientifique qu’il aborde.Pour en revenir à Clifford Pickover : outre le fait qu’il a écrit un grandnombre d’ouvrage, il a aussi été un inventeur acharné avec plus d’unecentaine de brevets déposée dans le cadre de ses activités chez IBM.Outre ses brevets, il a aussi publié plus d’une centaine de papiers surdes thèmes aussi variés que la visualisation scientifique, le “artcomputing” (l’art où l’ordinateur est utilisé) ou encore lesmathématiques récréatives.À côté de ses activités scientifiques, on peut noter que CliffordPickover est membre du “Committee for Skeptical Inquiry” (CSI) dont lerôle est d’étudier avec rigueur et en suivant une approche scientifiqueet stricte les pseudo-sciences comme le paranormal, l’ufologie, etc.Parmis les membres connus de ce comité, on peut notamment citer CarlSagan et Isaac Asimov (quand même !).Par ailleurs, le livre d’aujourd’hui se place dans une série d’ouvrages dumême type que Clifford Picover a entamé avec “Le Beau Livre des Maths -De Pythagore à la 57e dimension” dont j’ai parlé plus haut. En effet, il a aussi écrit, “The Physics Book: From the Big Bang to QuantumResurrection”qui donne en français : “Le Beau Livre de la physique - DuBig Bang à la résurrection quantique” et qui fut publié le 3 octobre2012.Clifford Pickover est enfin un auteur présent sur le web. En dehors de son compte twitter que vous pouvez bien sûr suivre sur @pickover et qu’il alimente régulièrement, vous pouvez aussi le retrouver surdifférents sites web qui donnent l’impression d’être issu des années 90:) Mais bon, on ne lui demande pas de faire du 3.0 HTML5 et CSS3 pourécrire de bons livres !Un livreAvant-proposParlons à présent du livre dont il est question aujourd’hui “Le Beau Livre dela Médecine : Des sorciers guérisseurs à la microchirurgie”. D’abordpublié sous le titre “The Medical Book: From Witch Doctors to RobotSurgeons” chez Sterling Publishing en version originale en 2012, laversion francophone, sujet de cette revue, a été publiée fin 2013 chezDunod.Je vais commencer par ce que ce livre n’est pas avant d’aborder ensuite ce qu’il est réellement. Tout d’abord, il n’a rien à voir avec celui qui a été le sujet de la précédente revue. On ne se voit pas plongé dans lavie des découvreurs ou ce genre de chose. Ce livre ne va pas non plusvous expliquer les tenants et les aboutissants de telle ou telledécouverte. Il s’agit plus d’un condensé des faits marquants, selonl’auteur, qui ont jallonné l’histoire de la médecine. On comprend, àtravers la description des différents avancées, comment s’est forgée lacompréhension des mécanismes biologiques à l’oeuvre dans notre corps, de quelle manière le combat contre les maladie a été mené, etc.La présentation des éléments du livre est aussi particulière : CliffordPickover a choisi de réaliser une présentation chronologique des faitshistoriques qu’il mentionne. Ainsi chaque double page correspond à unévènement en particulier : la page de gauche est dédiée à unedescription du moment en question, et la page de droite est uneillustration. Pour chaque sujet Clifford Pickover donne la date,l’évènement en question et les sujets autrement abordés dans le livreavec lesquels il peut être lié.La revueEn lisant ce livre, j’ai été surpris par les dates données pour certainsévènements marquants et tout notamment au début de l’Histoire de laMédecine telle que la décrit Clifford Pickover. Qui aurait cru que desyeux de verre étaient utilisés il y a près de 5 millénaires ? Ondécouvre en effet qu’un prétrêsse en portait un de son vivant et qu’ilétait fait de goudron naturel et d’or. Sûrement utilisé dans un cadrereligieux ou pour symboliser des pouvoir particuliers.On découvre aussi que les saignées ont été pratiquées pendant presque 3500 ans avec diverses justifications, ou soins supposés et ceci jusqu’à il y a assez récemment comme en 1923 où cette pratique était encorerecommandée dans des ouvrages de médecine. On apprend ainsi qu’elleétait déjà pratiquée en Egypte ancienne, qu’elle fut notamment renduepopulaire par Galien et que c’est une des causes de la mort de GeorgeWashington qui, et je cite, “atteint d’une infection de la gorge , futaccélérée par la considérable quantité de sang qui lui fut prélevée lors d’une saignée”.En parlant des saignées, j’ai cité Galien. Cet homme fut assurément l’undes médecins grecs les plus connus en dehors d’Hippocrate. À travers ses écrits extrêment nombreux on a pu observer les différents domaines surlesquels il s’est penché : dissection, vivisection, contrôle del’activité musculaire via les nerfs par le cerveau, etc. Ses ouvragesont gardé pendant presque 1000 ans un impact fort sur les médecins dumonde arabe et en Europe. Parlant d’Hippocrate, qui vécut presque 600ans avant Galien, on sait en fait assez peu de choses sur l’homme. Endehors de l’aspect un peu farfelu de la base de la médecine (undérèglement de quatre humeurs : sang, bile noire, bile jaune etphlegme), le serment qui porte son nom était adopté par les médecins, et visait à assurer une certaine éthique dans les pratiques. Il est bon de savoir que les écrits issus et/ou écrits par Hippocrate avaient cettequalité (qui s’est perdue à une certaine période) qu’ils exprimaient les maladies comme des phénomènes naturels et non reliés à une quelconquedivinité …Le livre s’intéresse d’ailleurs tout particulièrement aux avancées qui ont été réalisées ces deux derniers siècles. Près des trois-quarts couvrent des évènements qui se passent depuis 1774. Clifford Pickover abordeainsi pêle-mêle les avancées de la chirurgie comme les différentesméthodes d’analyse comme l’électrocardiographe etl’électroencéphalogramme, la radiothérapie ou encore la mammographie, ou le traitement des grandes maladies de notre temps : vaccination de lavariole, rougeole, peste bubonique, etc.En conclusionEn conclusion, “Le Beau Livre de la Médecine : Des sorciers guérisseurs àla microchirurgie” nous apprend plein de chose, mais vraimenténormément. Que ce soit sur la médecine en général, sur ses pratiques au cours du temps, sur les découvertes, et sur les Hommes et Femmes quiont permis les avancées. Je regrette un peu la faible longueur de chaque explication des évènements que nous présente Clifford Pickover. On seretrouve parfois un tantinet frustré à devoir à se sentir en train desurvoler certain d’entre eux, mais il faut ce qu’il faut pour arriver àparler des évènements les plus importants. Ceci donne peut-être plusl’envie de lire d’autres ouvrages qui s’appesantiraient finalement surceux qui ont aiguillonés notre curiosité.Il faut aussi prévenir: il ne s’agit pas d’un vidal médical, maiscertaines âmes sensibles pourraient être un peu secouées par certainspassages comme pour les forceps utilisés pour la sortie des bébéspendant la naissance, les causes de cancer, ou le fait que pendant trèslongtemps les patients n’était pas endormies ou les plaies désinfectées...On découvre aussi comment pendant longtemps la médecine a été un domainedans lequel, la mécompréhension de certains phénomènes provoquaitsuperstitions, supputations maladroites à l’origine de traitementsinutiles voire contre-productifs, etc. Mais finalement c’est l’avancéedans cette science très pratique qui permis de faire des découvertes.On apprend d’ailleurs comment certains préjugés ou certainespréconceptions ont eu la vie dure pendant des siècles: on découvre parexemple que les médecins juifs ont été, et depuis très longtemps, enproie à une stigmatisation comme aux États-Unis où les étudiants juifsde l’université de Colombia devaient porter un H (pour hébreux) sur leur tenue afin de les identifier pendant la seconde guerre mondiale. Ondécouvre aussi que pendant longtemps les hommes ont été écartés desactes médicaux liés au moment de la naissance avec, par exemple,l’histoire du Dr Wertt qui fut brûlé pour s’être déguisé en femme afind’assister à des accouchements et apprendre à mettre des enfants aumonde.Ce livre, quand on s’éloigne et que l’on regarde le sommaire par exemple,donne un peu le vertige : on se rend compte de la quantité dedécouvertes, après tout, assez récentes, dont nous jouissons dans notremédecine moderne et le nombre important de maladies dont on ne pouvaitrien dire ou que l’on ne pouvait pas traiter il y a à peine un siècle !Finalement un bon ouvrage pour vous intéresser à la médecine, son Histoire, et qui vous donnera peut-être envie d’en savoir plus !Un livre qui n’a rien à voir L'Imposture scientifique en dix leçons - crédit Goodreads : http://goo.gl/9c4gMtLe fait que Clifford Pickover fasse partie du “Committee for SkepticalInquiry” me fait penser à un livre que j’ai lui mais qui n’a rien à voir avec celui d’aujourd’hui : “L’imposture scientifique en dix leçons” deMichel de Pracontal. J’ai eu un peu de mal à rentrer dans le livre,peut-être les hémorroïdes (les gens ayant lu le livre comprendront),mais la suite est incroyable. Il détricote les méthodes des imposteursqui utilisent la science pour tromper ou détourner le public, pourvaincre ses adversaires au mépris de la santé des patients ou pouramener à soi des fidèles en les trompant. On découvre plein de chosestrès intéressantes, notamment à propos de l’affaire du sang contaminé,ou encore comment devenir un gourou riche, célèbre et écouté. Je penseque ce livre sera le sujet d’un très prochain épisode de Lisez LaScience. À lire de toute urgence !Un livre que j’aimerais lire 10 notions-clés pour enseigner les sciences - crédits Goodreads : http://goo.gl/ShzFViC’est le livre de Michel de Pracontal qui m’a fait pensé à celui quej’aimerais lire et dont je vais vous parler maintenant. Il s’agit de “10 notions-clés pour enseigner les sciences” de Wynne Harlen. Ladescription de l’ouvrage le présente vraiment comme un ouvrageindispensable pour ne pas être une proie trop facile pour les imposteurs que dénonce Pracontal : acquérir des connaissances scientifiques debase, comprendre comment la science fonctionne, ses processus,l’expérimentation, la problématique de cadre de fonctionnement etl’éthique associée.Il me semble que vu l’omniprésence de la science dans notre vie de tousles jours et de l’usage totalement détourné qu’il peut en être fait pour justifier tout et surtout n’importe quoi, il est important de fournirles bases pour développer l’esprit critique des futurs citoyens afinqu’ils sachent pouvoir discriminer les bons et mauvais usages de lascience.Si je n’écoutais que moi, je l’acheterais tout de suite !Quote Cette citation est de Voltaire, mais je n’ai pas trouvé si elle avait été écrite dans un de ses ouvrages : L'art de la médecine consiste à distraire le malade pendant que la nature le guérit.VoltairePlugs et liens évoquésPages wikipedia de Clifford Pickover [français] - [english] (il faut noter que la version anglophone est beaucoup plus exhaustive).Page du prix Neumann décernée par la BSHM à Clifford Pickover : http://bshm.org/BSHMNeumannPrize.htmlCompte twitter de Clifford Pickover : https://twitter.com/pickoverSite de Clifford Pickover : http://www.pickover.comConclusionQue vous ayez aimé ou pas, surtout, ne restez pas devant des émissions detélé-réalité.

Weird NJ/Weird US/Weird Hauntings/Last ExitJoanne M. Austin is a writer and editor who covers two subject matter extremes: the financial services industry and regional folklore as featured in the magazine Weird N.J. At the latter, she edited two special editions of the magazine – Tales From Clinton Road and Last Exit: Travels with Death in the Garden State – and interviewed a wide range of weirdly interesting people, including the Amazing Kreskin, Jonathon “The Impaler” Sharkey, and Sci-fi author Jeffrey Ford. She also compiled and edited the award-winning anthology Weird Hauntings: True Tales of Ghostly Places and has done the same with a second book, Weird Encounters: Ghostly Tales of Haunted Places, which will be available from Sterling Publishing in September 2010.Since graduating with honors from the Maryland Institute College of Art with a BFA in Illustration Ryan Doan has supplied illustration and photo design services to such clients as Barnes and Noble, Sterling Publishing, BMG Entertainment, Sababa Toys, Art Asylum, The Aquarian magazine, The Sun, and commissioned costumers.In 2004 he joined Weird NJ magazine as an Associate Editor and Production Associate/Photographer. That position soon parlayed into Staff Artist when Weird NJ signed a large book deal with Barnes and Noble. He enjoyed that position for five years until branching out to establish himself as a freelancer. He was the primary illustrator for over 32 internationally syndicated titles also supplying cover art for three editions. Included in those titles is the award-winning Weird Hauntings, where he was responsible for acquiring the photography and which he enjoyed being the sole illustrator. The follow-up book Weird Encounters: Ghostly Tales of Haunted Places, his second book, will be released in the fall of 2010 to hopefully the same response as the first. Ryan has also worked as a freelance photojournalist, interviewing and photographing often eccentric, colorful characters. His photography has also appeared in many of his book projects and on the walls of commissioned clients.
