  My parents both left this planet covered in glitter. Death came for each of them right in the middle of what they were working on. As I held and kissed them for the last time, patches of glitter transferred to my hands and face like tiny passed torches. For as much as the grief burned, there was no getting around it—the light that had been on them was now on me.In the grand scope of things, glitter may not seem like much. But in a way, it’s everything: a responsibility to infinity, to reflect the spark at the heart of it all.                                                                                         —Robin BrownThe first book to quilt the spirit of a wildly successful international clothing brand among the scraps of childhood trauma, Glitter Saints is the story of Robin Brown, creator of Magnolia Pearl. It’s a mining of tragedy for the kind of magic that creates and sustains - a sharp-eyed, soft-hearted, stubborn hope that’s the rarest raw material.

  What if one conversation could change your entire life? 
  In 1979, Jeff Burgess was a 22-year-old college dropout drifting through life in a haze of beer, weed, and dead-end jobs. He was the "town clown" with an undeniable work ethic but no clear direction. Then, on a lazy Sunday afternoon, his father called him home for a talk that would shake him to his core: "You have a gift, and I cannot allow you to waste it anymore. It’s time to get your shit together." 
  From that moment, everything changed. Armed with a relentless drive, a knack for problem-solving, and a newfound determination to make something of himself, Jeff set out to prove his father right. Within two years, he skyrocketed from warehouse worker to Vice President of Sales at a booming tech company. By the time he retired, he had built a global business supplying surveillance video recording appliances to both the most iconic and the secure sites in the world. 
  It Worked for Me is the inspiring, no-nonsense story of how an underachiever transformed into an industry leader—one who thrived not by playing it safe, but by embracing risk, trusting his gut, and always finding a way forward. 
  If you've ever felt stuck, uncertain, or like success was just out of reach, this book will show you how to seize your own turning point.

  Every day life can be challenging for a normal person juggling work, school, a family, and home, not to mention the unexpected things that can financially and mentally add additional stress. As we age, we all learn how to cope and deal with life's challenges. Now imagine you’re 8 8-year-old who has lost his mother, who he loved dearly, and has no home or money. The only thing he owns is the clothes on his back. The one solid thing that he can call his own is his superior knowledge and his desire to continue to learn. Zack doesn’t realize he is above average; he looks at himself as a kid on the street who no one would be willing to help or take in. He’s also decided that he will not be taken to a foster home that he wouldn’t survive, but that he would do whatever it takes to survive living on the streets. As time goes on, everyone who meets and talks to Zack is quite touched by him. He’s never rude or mean to anyone and is very appreciative of the little things in life. He knows his life isn’t normal like everyone else, but he accepts that. He makes the most of what he does have and what’s available to him without taking advantage of anything or anyone. Follow his four-year journey from having nothing to accomplishing something that no one thought possible. His story and his life are both an incredible inspiration.

  Æpyornis Island - From their...

  Herbert George Wells was born on September 21st, 1866 at Atlas House, 46 High Street, Bromley, Kent. He was the youngest of four siblings and his family affectionately knew him as ‘Bertie’.  
  The first few years of his childhood were spent fairly quietly, and Wells didn’t display much literary interest until, in 1874, he accidentally broke his leg and was left to recover in bed, largely entertained by the library books his father regularly brought him. Through these Wells found he could escape the boredom and misery of his bed and convalescence by exploring the new worlds he encountered in these books.  
  From these humble beginnings began a career that was, after several delays, to be seen as one of the most brilliant of modern English writers.    
  Able to write comfortably in a number of genres he was especially applauded for his science fiction works such as The Time Machine and War of the Worlds but his forays into the social conditions of the times, with classics such as Kipps, were almost as commercially successful.  His short stories are miniature masterpieces many of which bring new and incredible ideas of science fiction to the edge of present day science fact.  Wells also received four nominations for the Nobel Prize in Literature 
  Despite a strong and lasting second marriage his affairs with other women also brought the complications of fathering other children.  His writings and work against fascism, as well as the promotion of socialism, brought him into increasing doubts with and opposition to religion.  His writings on what the world could be in works, such as A Modern Utopia, are thought provoking as well as being plausible, especially when viewed from the distressing times they were written in. 
  His diabetic condition pushed him to create what is now the largest Diabetes charity in the United Kingdom.  Wells even found the time to run twice for Parliament. 
  It was a long, distinguished and powerfully successful career by the time he died, aged 79, on August 13th, 1946.
