The Moonlight Resilience Compass is a guide of light, hope, and strength for children with Long Covid, ME/CFS, and other chronic illnesses in a world where much remains invisible. A compass does not show how fast one should move, but where one stands and which direction is possible. This is exactly what children with fluctuating strength and uncertain daily lives need.Why the moon and why a compass? Because these illnesses do not follow a linear course; they unfold in cycles: exhaustion, withdrawal, hope, strength. The compass helps to recognize and name these phases. It builds bridges between strain and self efficacy, invisibility and visibility, and between children and adults. Cyclical intelligence means understanding these fluctuations not as a deficit but as a valuable resource. It makes individual states systemically compatible and opens new pathways for resilience and participation.The Moonlight Resilience Compass translates inner states into symbols, transition rituals, and child friendly anchoring formulas that everyone can understand. In this way, new protective spaces emerge that legitimize withdrawal and enable guidance in the rhythm of the children. Scenarios, modules, and visual markers make fatigue, sensory overload, and cognitive fluctuations visible. The moon goddess accompanies these cycles as a semantic figure not as a fantasy character, but as a resonance body for what cannot be spoken.All modules are globally applicable and important for disaster and emergency management, as they structure cycles of strain, enable crisis communication, and strengthen self efficacy. Spatial examples, scenarios, and practice scripts present care in a new way, because we must succeed in meeting one of the greatest social, health, and educational challenges of our time.The book also contains a comprehensive concept proposal for the creation of a Moon Village, which can provide orientation and safety both in everyday life and in times of crisis.

Kars, sometimes translated as Keres, was the herald of one of the queen-mothers named Ahhotep at the beginning of the New Kingdom era. There were two queen-mothers named Ahhotep at the beginning of the New Kingdom era: Ahhotep, the wife of King Amenhotep I, and Ahhotep, the mother of King Ahmose. This stele was erected during regal year 10 of King Amenhotep I, and therefore it is accepted that this Ahhotep was his wife. King Amenhotep I was the king of Egypt between approximately 1557 and 1537 BCE. This date is based on the radiocarbon dating of the mummy of the previous king, Ahmose I, meaning the stele would have been erected circa 1547 BCE.Kars was a senior member of the Egyptian nobility during the reign of King Amenhotep I; however, his stele was much shorter than the stele of his contemporaries Ahmose pen-Nekhbet and Ahmose pen-Ebana. Unlike his major contemporaries, he would have been a homosexual, and therefore, probably never had any children to maintain his tomb and stele. The stele was erected by the queen-mother after Kars died, which supports the idea that he did not have children. The stele was maintained by the royal court until the reign of Akhenaten, when it was defaced. King Ahkenaten tried to suppress the ancient gods of Egypt in favor of his preferred god: Aten. Several names were destroyed within the text of the stele, mostly the names of gods. Based on the context, the gods names can be reconstructed as Amen, Aani, and Maat.Kars stele was accompanied by a statue of Kars, which Queen-mother Ahhotep had commissioned and erected at his tomb in Abydos. Both the stele and the statue have survived; however, the stele was damaged during the reign of Akhenaten, when the names of the old gods were systematically destroyed in ancient steles. Unfortunately, the stele did not go into great detail about Kars life, not even mentioning his last name. It spoke more about Ahhotep, who had commissioned it. Nevertheless, it does give a glimpse into the relationships within the royal court of Amenhotep I circa 1547 BCE.

TELENOVELA explores the secret lives of a family swept up in the final days of Pinochets dictatorship in Chile. There is Lucho: bullied by fellow soldiers for his love of poetry, thwarted in his ambitions to become a writer. He seems like a loving father. He seems loveable. And maybe he is. But as TELENOVELA unfolds, other things come to light about Lucho that are less easy to indulge or forgive. There is Ramona, Luchos wife: tormented by anxiety, overwhelmed by body image problems. Ramona once hoped to become a telenovela star; she secretly daydreams that she might still get her big break. She seems like an innocent. But is she? Then there is Pablo, their son: dreamy, gentle, eager to form his own band and write some worthwhile songs. Desperate to be cool... And increasingly, just desperate. These people are deeply human - but Telenovela makes us understand how inhumane they can also be. How easy it is to be complicit in authoritarian regimes - and how personal stories can take on universal significance..

Scotlands Stone of Destiny is the most famous symbol of both Scottish nationhood and the British monarchy. Nick Aitchison has produced a fully updated, researched and illustrated study of its history, mythology and cultural significance.Having first traced the origin, evolution and function of myths surrounding the Stone and the ancient prophecy that gives the Stone its name, Aitchison examines the Stone itself its appearance, geology and source and reveals the Stones original function and the origins of its symbolic sanctity. Scotlands Stone of Destiny discusses the much-disputed issue of authenticity, and finally places it in a wider context with reference to the Stones significance to the creation of the Scottish parliament and the destiny of the Scots.

Este livro busca discutir como se constituem as trajetórias de sucesso escolar de jovens negros do ensino médio, em um Colégio público estadual da cidade de Petrópolis. Ao longo da pesquisa realizada, a autora buscou compreender o que e sucesso para este grupo, suas familias e para os integrantes do Colegio, considerando ainda os efeitos do racismo nas trajetorias destes estudantes. O racismo estrutural permeia toda a sociedade, no sendo diferente no espaço escolar. Dessa forma, a pesquisa apresentada nesta obra busca alcançar como os possiveis atos racistas se manifestam e afetam as trajetorias escolares de jovens negros. Ate o inicio da decada de 1990, o ensino medio era cursado por poucos privilegiados, e havia um ingresso pio de jovens negros nessa etapa da escolarizaço, fazendo com que ingressar e permanecer no colegio, fosse percebido como sucesso. No entanto, mesmo transcorridas decadas e o acesso dos jovens negros tenha sido ampliado, o que e esperado dos estudantes negros, em todos os niveis educacionais e o fracasso escolar. Diante dos fatos apresentados, foi empreendida uma analise a luz das questes raciais e de teorias sociologicas, que levaram a caminhos surpreendentes sobre o sucesso alcançado por estes jovens.
