Sinopse

The Age of Justinian and Theodora is a two-volume historical work written by British historian William Gordon Holmes and it presents a historical account of Byzantine Empire in 6th century A. D. Justinian the Great was the Byzantine emperor from 527 to 565 and his wife Theodora was very influential in the politics of the Empire. Justinian's reign is marked by the ambitious project known as the restoration of the Empire. A still more resonant aspect of his legacy was the uniform rewriting of Roman law, the Corpus Juris Civilis, which is still the basis of civil law in many modern states. His reign also marked a blossoming of Byzantine culture, and his building program yielded works such as the Hagia Sophia.

    The inspirational story of the compassionate and wise animals of the Gentle Barn and how they became a therapeutic salve for countless guests—and mentors for all of us in how to live and die 
     
    In Cow Hug Therapy, Ellie Laks recounts the extraordinary journey that started with her first teacher, Buddha—not the religious figure, but a rescued miniature Hereford cow. One evening Buddha wrapped her neck around an exhausted and upset Ellie and transferred a singular form of healing and comfort with an incredible impact. Understanding that this was something to be shared with others, Ellie developed Cow Hug Therapy, a groundbreaking approach to emotional healing that has proved effective for trauma, illness, disabilities, addiction, grief, and stress. 
     
    This colorful and compelling narrative introduces the healing mavens of the barnyard, each with a unique story of being rescued from trauma and treated with love and respect. In their new role at Ellie’s Gentle Barn sanctuaries, these animals have transformed lives and ignited breakthroughs and newfound purpose for visitors including a young mother who lost her baby, a suicidal teenager, a wounded serviceman, an open-heart-surgery patient, and many more. A testament to empathy and the mission to heal animals, people, and the planet, Cow Hug Therapy serves as a beacon of hope for all seeking healing and connection. 
     
    “This book shows not only the power of Cow Hug Therapy with these wonderful creatures, but also their beautiful, individual personalities.”—Christina Applegate

    The Jacobites conjure up many images to 21st century Britons, including romantic heroism, the Outlander series, and Bonnie Prince Charlie as the doomed hero of the cause, but Jacobitism was a cause that had far reaching consequences across 18th century Europe. The Jacobites were not only supporters of the exiled Stuart monarchy, but also against the political and religious settlements agreed to across the British Isles. As Jacobite historians such as Daniel Szechi and Frank McLynn have noted, the specter of the Jacobite threat was present for the British government and monarchy in their dealings with European powers throughout the 18th century.[1] This was especially true in France, the country that supported the exiled Stuarts and gave them a home until 1714. This soured the French monarchy’s relationship with Britain, and the Hanoverian kings who replaced the Stuarts were always aware of French and Spanish attempts to return the British throne to the Catholic Stuarts.  
    	The Jacobite court in exile regularly issued propaganda detailing the policies they would enact if restored, and this often reflected the agitations of anyone opposed to the political status quo in Britain at any given time. The Jacobites after 1707 in Scotland were often associated with the repeal of the Treaty of Union, mostly as that coincided with popular opinion. Szechi has noted over the years that Jacobitism was fairly politically radical in its objectives, from religious toleration to freely elected Parliaments and curbs on political corruption.[2] The restoration of the Stuarts would also have seen a return to multi-kingdom monarchy in Britain and Ireland, and it would have changed the European alliances which were forged in the many wars fought during this period.  
    	Given all that, it’s no surprise the Jacobites continue to interest so many people, as do the plot twists, near misses, and “what-ifs” involved.

    Have you ever wondered how different your life would be if you were more socially confident or charismatic? 
    From early on in our lives, a lot of emphases has been put into academic ability and its relation to our success or lack of it. 
    While academic ability can be important, it is now believed that in reality, it is our ability to adapt to our social environment the better predictor of our future success in several areas of our lives, even more so than anything we learn in school. 
    Here's some of what you can expect to learn inside the pages of this book: 
    -Discover how to effectively eliminate social anxiety for good. 
    -A step-by-step process that will help you stay motivated and reach your social skills goals. 
    -How to become more assertive. 
    -The keys to develop charismatic traits and develop a magnetic personality. 
    -The best ways to develop body language to make others feel pay you more attention and feel more comfortable in your presence. 
    It’s common to think that social skills are only useful for making friends, but in reality, they affect our ability to function properly in many areas of our day to day lives. 
    It may seem that some people are simply born charismatic, likable, and with a great set of social skills, but most are capable of developing these attributes. 
    Regardless of your personality, there are certain things you can practice in your day to day life to modify your behaviour and make you seem more trustworthy, influential and charming in your social interactions. 
    There is no better time to start the journey towards an improved quality of life. Start your journey towards becoming a 'social ninja' today!
