Benefits of Travel Journaling: A journal makes your trip to Italy more memorable. Keeping a diary makes you more attentive and even more perceptive in the long run. In today's constant rush pausing for a moment of reflection to fill in your travel journal is invaluable. There is no need to be afraid of forgetting your unique experiences because you will write them down however briefly. You have a tool at hand to fight boredom during long waits for a train or bus. Adding drawings to your journal and making photos with your phone are two different animals. The discernment you put in a sketch will never be there when you press a button absent-mindedly twenty times in a row. You don't have to compete with Vincent Van Gogh and your doodles will be precious memories you will treasure. You will be able to share magic moments of your trips to Italy with your kids or grandchildren because you will remember every detail thanks to your travel journal.

This Italy travel journal is an ideal size for traveling. Neither too large nor too small. It has a light soft cover that fits easily in any bag, suitcase or backpack. A travel journal should not be too heavy. TIP: Take a little glue stick with you or buy one in Italy and slap notes, train tickets, and business cards next to your writing. Writing your Travel Journal Try not to be self-conscious. A journal is not a novel and you don't have to worry about getting your grammar one hundred percent perfect. If you are afraid of blank pages simply jot down notes about the places you just saw. Start with brief comments and over time your writings will get longer without you even trying. Perhaps you will get into the habit of keeping a daily journal at home, which is always a great thing. If you are going to Italy with your kids, buy one for them too and they will probably get even more excited about their trip to Italy, Europe. They may also get used to keeping a diary at home, something that will surely help them in their life journey. TIP: Do not buy the crappiest pen. Use a decent one that writes smoothly.

"Our understanding of how the human brain performs mathematical calculations is far from complete. In The Number Sense, Stanislas Dehaene offers readers an enlightening exploration of the mathematical mind. Using research showing that human infants have a rudimentary number sense, Dehaene suggests that this sense is as basic as our perception of color, and that it is wired into the brain. But how then did we leap from this basic number ability to trigonometry, calculus, and beyond? Dehaene shows that it was the invention of symbolic systems of numerals that started us on the climb to higher mathematics. Tracing the history of numbers, we learn that in early times, people indicated numbers by pointing to part of their bodies, and how Roman numerals were replaced by modern numbers. On the way, we also discover many fascinating facts: for example, because Chinese names for numbers are short, Chinese people can remember up to nine or ten digits at a time, while English-speaking people can only remember seven. A fascinating look at the crossroads where numbers and neurons intersect, The Number Sense offers an intriguing tour of how the structure of the brain shapes our mathematical abilities, and how math can open up a window on the human mind"--Provided by publisher.

Mankind in its present state has been around for a quarter of a million years, yet only the last 4,000 have been of any significance. So, what did we do for nearly 250,000 years? We huddled in caves and around small fires, fearful of the things that we didn't understand. It was more than explaining why the sun came up, it was the mystery of enormous birds with heads of men and rocks that came to life. So we called them 'gods' and 'demons', begged them to spare us, and prayed for salvation. In time, their numbers dwindled and ours rose. The world began to make more sense when there were fewer things to fear, yet the unexplained can never truly go away, as if the universe demands the absurd and impossible. Mankind must not go back to hiding in fear. No one else will protect us, and we must stand up for ourselves. While the rest of mankind dwells in the light, we must stand in the darkness to fight it, contain it, and shield it from the eyes of the public, so that others may live in a sane and normal world. We secure. We contain. We protect. -- The Administrator The SCP Foundation - Foundation Handbook - Volume I is a perfect introduction to the world of SCPs. 63 stories, science fiction and horror, unveiling distinct Secure Containment Procedures designed to protect humanity from these anomalous entities. Whether it pertains a mysterious dark staircase which descends to physically impossible depths or a benign figure who offers a last cigarette to the ones who have been left alone on their deathbed, the foundation must document, study, secure, contain these strange phenomenons. But how can such a foundation operate with diligence and yet, integrity? What should be done with a little girl who brings to reality anything her impressionable mind believes to be true? The book is an adaptation and a collection of tales from the collaborative fiction website SCP Foundation, which can be reached at http://www.scp-wiki.net/ .

A spellbinding history of the hidden world below the Holy City—a saga of biblical treasures, intrepid explorers, and political upheaval “A sweeping tale of archaeological exploits and their cultural and political consequences told with a historian’s penchant for detail and a journalist’s flair for narration.” —Washington Post In 1863, a French senator arrived in Jerusalem hoping to unearth relics dating to biblical times. Digging deep underground, he discovered an ancient grave that, he claimed, belonged to an Old Testament queen. News of his find ricocheted around the world, evoking awe and envy alike, and inspiring others to explore Jerusalem’s storied past. In the century and a half since the Frenchman broke ground, Jerusalem has drawn a global cast of fortune seekers and missionaries, archaeologists and zealots, all of them eager to extract the biblical past from beneath the city’s streets and shrines. Their efforts have had profound effects, not only on our understanding of Jerusalem’s history, but on its hotly disputed present. The quest to retrieve ancient Jewish heritage has sparked bloody riots and thwarted international peace agreements. It has served as a cudgel, a way to stake a claim to the most contested city on the planet. Today, the earth below Jerusalem remains a battleground in the struggle to control the city above. Under Jerusalem takes readers into the tombs, tunnels, and trenches of the Holy City. It brings to life the indelible characters who have investigated this subterranean landscape. With clarity and verve, acclaimed journalist Andrew Lawler reveals how their pursuit has not only defined the conflict over modern Jerusalem, but could provide a map for two peoples and three faiths to peacefully coexist.
