Black History Month is a time when all Americans honor the rich African American culture in our society. It was Carter G. Woodson, an African American historian, who began a weeklong celebration, called Negro History Week, in 1926 as a way to honor Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln. One of the best ways to celebrate is by reading books by and about African Americans. Virginia Hamilton’s works are among the many books that call upon readers to think about slavery, freedom, and heritage. Through her stories, Hamilton began the genre of liberation literature, which serves to instill cultural pride, as well as a sense of family and the importance of relationships. Black History Month is a time to help readers realize that these universal themes transcend race and that through the power of story, all races are truly united. Non-fiction, Women's Lit, Liberation
Pek çok hayvan (buna biz insanlar da dahiliz) problem çözme yetisine sahipler. Beyinlerini kullanmayı ve düşünmeyi gerektiren pek çok bilmecenin altından rahatlıkla kalkıyorlar. Ancak bugün hala ilkel inançlardan doğan bir söylem almış başını gidiyor: "Hayvanlar düşünemez, Allah aklı sadece insana bahşetmiştir."
Kendimizi üstün görme anlayışına sahip olduğumuz ne yazık ki bir gerçek. Bu durum akrabalarımızın ve diğer canlıların başarılarını hep gözardı etmemize ya da önyargıyla yaklaşmamıza sebep oluyor. Sadece primatlar değil pek çok türden canlı bugün düşünmelerini gerektiren zeka problemlerinin üstesinden ustalıkla geliyorlar.

Most Americans appear hopeful and optimistic about aging according to a new, national study from Parker, one of America’s leading aging services organizations that this year celebrates its 110th anniversary. Key findings from Parker’s “Aging in America Survey”—which examines the nation’s changing attitudes and opinions around growing older in the U.S.—include:
• A vast majority of Americans (71%) do not fear or worry about aging very much or at all.
• More than half of those surveyed (62%) believe that 80 is not too old to serve in government, run a marathon, be CEO of a Fortune 500 company, teach a class, or practice yoga.
• Those surveyed were evenly split (49% each) in describing the experience of growing older in America today with positive words (e.g., “hopeful,” “relevant,” “vibrant”) vs. negative words (e.g., “scary,” “depressing,” “lonely”).
• Nearly two-thirds (59%) of Americans feel that not enough technology innovation focuses on the lifestyles of older people.
• While 38% of Americans feel the most positive thing about getting older is gaining more experience and wisdom, only 1% believes it is acquiring greater wealth and material goods.

LG Chem, la division chimie de LG Group, a signé un partenariat de distribution exclusif pour la France et la Belgique avec Laboderm - filiale de Novomed Group spécialisée en dermatologie et médecine esthétique - pour la distribution de sa gamme YVOIRE, génération innovante de produits de comblement injectables à base d’acide hyaluronique (AH) réticulé d’origine non-animale.
La gamme YVOIRE révolutionne l’offre des produits de comblement. Sa technologie exclusive « HICE » (High Concentration Equalized) se caractérise d’un côté par un haut poids moléculaire pour un effet plus durable et une plus forte élasticité, et de l’autre par une très faible concentration d’agent réticulant BDDE (Butyl Diglycidyl Ether), garantissant plus de sécurité. Au total, sa composition résulte en des produits homogènes, faciles à injecter (fluidité et régularité) et plus résistants à la dégradation enzymatique.
La gamme se décline en trois catégories de produits (« Classic », « Volume », « Contour ») avec ou sans lidocaïne (pour plus de confort), offrant aux praticiens de larges possibilités d’interventions personnalisées selon les patients.

When trying to find a hearing aid, explore your alternatives to comprehend what kind of listening devices will work best for you. See your doctor to dismiss correctable causes of hearing loss, such as earwax or an infection. And have your hearing tested by a hearing expert (audiologist).
Seek a recommendation to a trusted audiologist. If you do not know an excellent audiologist, ask your doctor for a referral. An audiologist will assess your hearing and help you select the most appropriate listening devices and adjust the device to satisfy your needs.

Kuran, ortaya çıktığı çağın kısıtlı ve ilkel bilimsel bilgilerini olduğu gibi yansıtmaktadır. Bugün ancak peri masallarına ve mitolojilere konu olabilek türden bir evren tasvirinin yer aldığı Kuran hiçbir güncel bilimsel bulguyla örtüşmemektedir.
Dünyanın alenen düz olduğu, göklerin görünmez direklerle havada tutulduğu, yıldızların kıyamette dünyaya düşecekleri, doğuya ve batıya yürünerek güneşin ve ayın toprağa battığının görülebileceği gibi ifadeler bize bu kitabın insan ürünü olduğunu işaret etmektedir.
