  In Fans Have More Friends, sports fans, dads, and data analysts David Sikorjak and Ben Valenta argue that fandom can not only increase our sense of belonging but also serves as a powerful antidote to loneliness because sports fans experience increased social connection. What they didn't realize was how deep that connection was, the potential it carried for individual and societal wellness, or the opportunities it offered for adult friendships, making and keeping friends, and family ties. 
   
   
   
  Their theory is simple: if we want to be less lonely, we need to belong to a community or something greater than ourselves. Over the course of two years, countless in-person interviews and rigorously designed surveys, Ben Valenta and David Sikorjak have the proof that being a fan can lead to: improved social connections; stronger community ties; enhanced well-being; a greater sense of belonging; and more friends. 
   
   
   
  The common thread in all of these personal stories is friendship, community, and belonging—a feeling research can't reveal as well as stories can. Fans Have More Friends will make you think differently about sports and reminds all of us of the essential animating quality of fandom: We're in this together. Sports is not always about what's happening on the field but what's happening in the stands.

  No Second Chances - The Inside...

  Morgan C Jones

  Between 2016 and 2019, a unique coalition assembled within British politics. Combining Corbynite campaigners and Conservative Cabinet ministers, celebrities and grassroots activists, seasoned political veterans and novice political amateurs, this disparate assemblage of forces was brought together by one aim: stopping Brexit. What began as the unfocused, often deeply emotional belief that Britain must not leave the EU morphed, fleetingly, into a mass movement: the People's Vote campaign, a mess of organisations united by the call for a second referendum on Europe.
  From the stunts of youth campaigners and the online antics of new pro-EU influencers to the million-person marches of 2019 and the launch of new centrist parties, many people, serious and unserious alike, dedicated themselves to securing a new vote. A campaign premised on telling the nation that they had gotten it catastrophically wrong was always going to be hard, and it was only made more so by parliamentary maths that never seemed to quite add up. Based on interviews with the people who were there, No Second Chances tells the dramatic, bizarre, and (at times) embarrassing story of one of recent British history's most feted roads not taken.

  Vladimir Lenin, H. G. Wells

  Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, better known as Vladimir Lenin, was a Russian revolutionary, politician, and political theorist. He served as the first and founding head of government of Soviet Russia from 1917 to 1924 and of the Soviet Union from 1922 to 1924. Under his administration, Russia, and later the Soviet Union, became a one-party socialist state governed by the Communist Party. Ideologically a Marxist, his developments to the ideology are called Leninism.
  Russia in the Shadows is a book by H. G. Wells published early in 1921, which includes a series of articles previously printed in The Sunday Express in connection with Wells's second visit to Russia (after a previous trip in January 1914 to St. Petersburg and Moscow) in September and October 1920.
  During his visit to Russia he visited his old friend Maxim Gorky, whom he had first met in 1906 on a trip to the United States, and who arranged Wells's meeting with Lenin.
  In a chapter (The Dreamer in the Kremlin) devoted to an interview with Lenin at the Kremlin Wells describes the leader and founder of Russian communism. Wells portrays Lenin as a pragmatic leader who "has recently stripped off the last pretence that the Russian revolution is anything more than the inauguration of an age of limitless experiment."
