See how beauty can come after heartbreak and suffering when you allow God to wipe away your tears. "Whatever you are feeling, God can handle it--all of it. The tears, screams, and questions. God invites you to let Him tend to your heart." In the bluegrass fields of Kentucky, Anne Wilson and her siblings, Jacob and Elizabeth, grew up in the security and love of their family--and Jesus. But when Jacob died in a car accident, Anne was thrust into a painful journey of grief and soul-wrestling that led to God calling her to create songs that glorified Him. My Jesus weaves together Anne's personal story of tragedy and the journey toward healing along with an encouraging message to anyone longing for God to wipe away their tears.

By the time the Pleistocene Epoch ended around 12,000 years ago, Homo sapiens had become one of the most significant species on the planet. It was also near the end of that period of time that modern humans began to gradually populate what would become Europe, Asia, and the Americas, eventually becoming the inheritors of the Paleolithic era and the only human species to make it into the Neolithic era. The process was long and difficult, and the survival of the species only happened through a combination of human tenacity and a fair amount of luck. As much as humans evolved during the Pleistocene, the topography, geography, and environment changed even more. The cold Pleistocene temperatures lowered water levels across the planet, exposing land that was not there before or after the period. At the same time, significant regions of the planet were very different during the Pleistocene, including Southeast Asia, particularly the modern islands of Bali, Borneo, Sumatra, and the Malay Peninsula, roughly equivalent to parts of Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, and Thailand. This region, which modern scholars refer to as Sunda or Sundaland, was unique because all of it was connected by land, meaning today’s islands were once part of a contiguous subcontinent, and in terms of the people, flora, and fauna, it was very different than it is today. If a modern traveler could somehow transport back to the Pleistocene, Sundaland would look nothing like modern Southeast Asia and would resemble as much of a lost world as something out of a science fiction novel. Although much is still unknown about Sundaland, researchers have uncovered plenty of evidence bringing this lost world to life. As anthropologists and archaeologists developed new models and discovered ancient material culture, they learned that Sundaland played a significant role in the development of Neolithic Southeast Asia in many ways.Ver libro
KILL BILL: VOLUME 2 THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY QUENTIN TARANTINO CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE ABOUT THE FILM Kill Bill: Vol. 2 is a 2004 martial arts film directed by Quentin Tarantino, and the second part of a two-film revenge saga. The story follows Beatrix Kiddo, also known as The Bride, who continues her quest to avenge the brutal betrayal by her former comrades in the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad. As she hunts down those responsible for the massacre at her wedding, the film explores themes of vengeance, betrayal, and redemption, blending western, samurai, and kung fu genres. Tarantino's signature style includes sharp dialogue, dynamic action sequences, and an exploration of complex relationships. TRIVIA SAMPLES: "The brothel scene where the Bride meets Esteban Vallejo (played by Michael Parks) was the last scene filmed. It was shot at a real Mexican brothel, with the female extras being actual prostitutes who worked there." "Robert Rodriguez composed the film's score for just one dollar. In return, Tarantino agreed to direct a segment of Rodriguez's Sin City (2005) for the same fee." "Pai Mei’s three-inch punch is a reference to Bruce Lee’s famous three-inch knockout punch." "After the credits, an alternate take shows the Bride ripping out one of the Crazy 88’s eyes."Ver libro
As You Like It is a pastoral comedy by William Shakespeare believed to have been written in 1599 and first published in the First Folio in 1623. The play's first performance is uncertain, though a performance at Wilton House in 1603 (the house having been a focus for literary activity under Mary Sidney for much of the later 16th century) has been suggested as a possibility.
As You Like It follows its heroine Rosalind as she flees persecution in her uncle's court, accompanied by her cousin Celia to find safety and, eventually, love, in the Forest of Arden. In the forest, they encounter a variety of memorable characters, notably the melancholy traveller Jaques, who speaks one of Shakespeare's most famous speeches ("All the world's a stage") and provides a sharp contrast to the other characters in the play, always observing and disputing the hardships of life in the country.
