  Are you still suffering from the aftereffects of an abusive relationship? 
    
  Although complicated and frequently perplexing, the answer to the above questions may be summed up in two words: emotional blackmail. 
    
  Emotional blackmail is a sneaky, aggressive tactic in which someone close to us threatens to penalize us, directly or indirectly, if we fail to achieve their expectations. It is a potent manipulation that takes advantage of those with whom you have intimate ties. 
    
  We usually imagine the blackmailer to be selfish, deceitful, and cruel; yet, this viewpoint is a poor explanation for this emotional event since the truth is very different. 
    
  Blackmailers are devious charmers and expert manipulators, so you begin to accept the most extreme behaviour as usual, even if it hurts you. 
    
  THIS MANUAL WILL TEACH YOU THE FOLLOWING: 
   How to recognize the subtle indicators of emotional blackmail and avoid falling into the trap in the future.How to recognize toxic personalities and prevent them.The numerous sorts of blackmail and strategies that blackmailers use to drive you insane regularly.How to Break the Blackmail Chains and Protect Yourself from Their AttacksAttachment and co-dependency patterns can help you understand where all this madness started.How to recover and break free from this destructive cycle once and for all. 
  And Much More!...

  Constant Reader - The New Yorker...

  Dorothy Parker, Sloane Crosley

  • 0

  Dorothy Parker's complete weekly New Yorker column about books and people and the rigors of reviewing. 
   
   
   
  When, in 1927, Dorothy Parker became a book critic for the New Yorker, she was already a legendary wit, a much-quoted member of the Algonquin Round Table, and an arbiter of literary taste. In the year that she spent as a weekly reviewer, under the rupic "Constant Reader," she created what is still the most entertaining book column ever written. Parker's hot takes have lost none of their heat, whether she's taking aim at the evangelist Aimee Semple MacPherson ("She can go on like that for hours. Can, hell—does"), praising Hemingway's latest collection ("He discards detail with magnificent lavishness"), or dissenting from the Tao of Pooh ("And it is that word 'hummy,' my darlings, that marks the first place in The House at Pooh Corner at which Tonstant Weader Fwowed up"). 
   
   
   
  Introduced with characteristic wit and sympathy by Sloane Crosley, Constant Reader gathers the complete weekly New Yorker reviews that Parker published from October 1927 through November 1928, with gimlet-eyed appreciations of the high and low, from Isadora Duncan to Al Smith, Charles Lindbergh to Little Orphan Annie, Mussolini to Emily Post.

  Dead Sea and the Dead Sea...

  Charles River Editors

  If the world had a navel, it would be the Dead Sea, the lowest point on Earth where one can still stand on dry land. The photographs of this unique lake seem to be taken from a science fiction movie, or a land devastated after a nuclear holocaust. To others, the fluffy shores could remind them of Antarctica although it is in one of the warmest spots on the planet. Its white, creamy masses, scattered along golden beaches, are not ice floes or frozen water, but effervescent salt formations. The famous Jordan River, where the Hebrew people entered the Promised Land and Jesus was baptized, flows into the lake, but the basin is so deeply sunk into the face of the planet that the waters never leave, as if they had fallen into a small black hole where nothing can escape.  
  	The Dead Sea is also an archaeological site loaded with history. Known among the first civilizations in the region as "Sea of Asphalt" and “Salt Sea,” innumerable myths and legends lend it an air of mystery, as if it attracted sterility and misfortune while eradicating all life from its waters. It was perhaps the inhospitable feel of the place, the almost total desolation surrounding it, which led the writer of the Pentateuch to imagine that many years ago, a cataclysm sent to annihilate perverted people had taken place there.  
  	In the mid-20th century, one of the most important religious discoveries of all time was made in a series of caves near the Dead Sea, which had hidden remnants of nearly 1,000 texts, some of which were included in the Hebrew Bible and others which were extra-biblical. In addition to being the oldest surviving copies of such documents, the mixture of languages and different kinds of papers helped shed light on the people in the region at the time, making the Dead Sea Scrolls vitally important to the world’s major religions.

  New Moons For Sam - Becoming...

  A personal, intimate, memoir spanning 70 years, in three parts, describing my childhood in the UK and New Zealand, my 35 years as a New Zealand diplomat, and the hundreds of amazing individuals I met on the way, from farming folk to Kings, Queens and Presidents. Part One is the story of an English boy growing up on a farm in rural Devon and Somerset in an extended family, and then, aged 9, moving to rural New Zealand. It covers my school years, my year as a volunteer teacher, aged 17, at an all boys school, in the South Pacific Kingdom of Tonga and my year as a university student in a still divided Germany. Part Two describes my career as a junior, then senior, New Zealand diplomat, and my postings in Fiji, Canada, Geneva, Samoa, Germany and Singapore, the last three as Ambassador. Part Three argues that New Zealand should become a republic in the Commonwealth, with its own Head of State. It describes, too, my liberating journey from Anglicanism to freedom from any religion. I have aimed to tell the memoir with a sense of humour, humility and (for the most part) optimism!
