През 2008 г. група съмишленици от "Фондация за нова култура" направихме нова камбана и камбанария на село Горна Бела Речка. Мотивите ни не бяха религиозни. Водеха ни усещането, че на старите хора от селото наистина им липсва откраднатата камбана с "най-благия звук", предизвикателството - може ли отново да се направи "блага" камбана, удивлението - колко силен отпечатък в паметта оставят звуците, с които израстваме. Тази книга събира уроците и разказите, родени в процеса на правене на камбаната. Решихме да споделим този процес с повече читатели, защото да направиш камбана се оказа преживяване, ... |

Q: What should we call this diet? A: Call it the Bulgarian diet, call it Ivan D.'s diet, call it whatever you want, I don't care. My point is that a truly efficient diet must encompass one's entire lifestyle, not just this or that input and its ratio to the output. I just claim that some of your individual lifestyle's patterns can be contributing much more to your being fit and well than what and how much you eat. Indeed, I do claim that observing my Ten Golden Rules as strictly as possible warrants good health and fit body, and alleviates - actually makes completely obsolete - the need of counting ... |

The Biology of Humans at our Best and Worst. ... Why do human beings behave as they do? We are capable of savage acts of violence but also spectacular feats of kindness: is one side of our nature destined to win out over the other? Every act of human behaviour has multiple layers of causation, spiralling back seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years, even centuries, right back to the dawn of time and the origins of our species. In the epic sweep of history, how does our biology affect the arc of war and peace, justice and persecution? How have our brains evolved alongside our cultures? This is the exhilarating ... |

"Les diners de Gala is uniquely devoted to the pleasures of taste... If you are a disciple of one of those calorie-counters who turn the joys of eating into a form of punishment, close this book at once; it is too lively, too aggressive, and far too impertinent for you." Salvador Dali Food and surrealism make perfect bedfellows: sex and lobsters, collage and cannibalism, the meeting of a swan and a toothbrush on a pastry case. The opulent dinner parties thrown by Salvador Dalí (1904 - 1989) and his wife and muse, Gala (1894 - 1982) were the stuff of legend. Luckily for us, Dalí published a cookbook ... |

To explore the Tarot is to explore ourselves, to be reminded of the universality of our longing for meaning, for purpose and for a connection to the divine. This 600-year-old tradition reflects not only a history of seekers, but our journey of artistic expression and the ways we communicate our collective human story. For many in the West, Tarot exists in the shadow place of our cultural consciousness, a metaphysical tradition assigned to the dusty glass cabinets of the arcane. Its history, long and obscure, has been passed down through secret writing, oral tradition, and the scholarly tomes of philosophers and sages. ... |
