Your complete anime persona takes account of your unique personality and appearance, and develops and accentuates those traits which have a natural place in an anime life. Your individual characteristics, aside from being developed in alignment with your "ideal" anime life, are also contrasted with a group of friends, each also committed to developing an anime lifestyle and persona. Together, individual similarities and differences help create a dynamic and fun group environment. And since no anime lifestyle is complete without some exciting plot-line, the group is put into action going on adventures, working on projects, and achieving goals together. In chapter 1, you will take several quizzes to help you determine what anime personality traits you have. This will help you find your niche among the friends who will take the anime dream to the next level, providing a context for your individual character to be fully realized. In chapter 2, you will learn how you can bring the anime dream to it’s ultimate manifestation by structuring your group around a Group Focus. The Group Focus serves as a kind of plot-line within which talents will be realized and adventures will be had. In chapter 3, you’ll learn how to plan exciting adventures. From fun afternoons to overnight trips - adventures of all sorts are discussed in detail, as well as how to make them affordable and safe. Chapter 4 discusses ways to add anime magic to holidays.

We will review ways to incorporate those holidays in your life through small celebrations with your friends. Chapter 5 discusses group projects - activities that you and your friends can work on together such as making a group photo book, sewing costumes, and making anime style accessories.

What are the conditions that foster true novelty and allow visionaries to set their eyes on unknown horizons? What have been the challenges that have spawned new innovations, and how have they shaped modern biology? In Dreamers, Visionaries, and Revolutionaries in the Life Sciences, editors Oren Harman and Michael R. Dietrich explore these questions through the lives of eighteen exemplary biologists who had grand and often radical ideas that went far beyond the run-of-the-mill science of their peers. From the Frenchman Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, who coined the word “biology” in the early nineteenth century, to the American James Lovelock, for whom the Earth is a living, breathing organism, these dreamers innovated in ways that forced their contemporaries to reexamine comfortable truths. With this collection readers will follow Jane Goodall into the hidden world of apes in African jungles and Francis Crick as he attacks the problem of consciousness. Join Mary Lasker on her campaign to conquer cancer and follow geneticist George Church as he dreams of bringing back woolly mammoths and Neanderthals. In these lives and the many others featured in these pages, we discover visions that were sometimes fantastical, quixotic, and even threatening and destabilizing, but always a challenge to the status quo.

Dream Walker Rules: -Observe, don’t interact -Keep track of your reality -DON'T change the past Welcome to Dream Walker Academy! A school for time-traveling dream walkers who want to hone their gifts and not lose their sanity in the process. Five years ago, Sebastien took control of his life and ran away to attend Dream Walker Academy. He’s never looked back. He has an incredible gift which allows him to travel back in time to a specific date TO THE SECOND. But it won’t get his mom and little sister away from his abusive dad. He'll need money for that. A lot of money. So, when the opportunity presents itself to bring clients on dream walking trips to historical events for a substantial payout, he snags the job. Now that he’s back in control, his family will be safe in no time. But maybe he should have listened to the warnings of girl-next-door, Tessa Stewart. Not because she's getting under his skin, or even because she's incredibly fun to flirt with, but as a dream walker who remembers all timelines, she might know what she’s talking about. Still, his clients aren’t hurting anyone, even if they’re breaking all the dream walker rules for their own gain. (until they do and he tries to quit) As long as his mom and sister are safe, he’s happy. (except they won’t be unless he continues to cooperate) Oh, and they’ve threatened to erase Tessa from existence. Sebastien is the King of Control… he’s got this. Right? Full of twists, time travel, and a hint of romance, CONTROL is the second book in the Dream Walker Academy series written by USA Today bestselling author, Joanna Reeder that will keep you turning pages late into the night!

In his highly praised book The Nostalgia Factory, renowned memory scholar Douwe Draaisma explored the puzzling logic of memory in later life with humor and deep insight. In this compelling new book he turns to the “miracle” of forgetting. Far from being a defect that may indicate Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia, Draaisma claims, forgetting is one of memory’s crucial capacities. In fact, forgetting is essential. Weaving together an engaging array of literary, historical, and scientific sources, the author considers forgetting from every angle. He pierces false clichés and asks important questions: Is a forgotten memory lost forever? What makes a colleague remember an idea but forget that it was yours? Draaisma explores “first memories” of young children, how experiences are translated into memory, the controversies over repression and “recovered” memories, and weird examples of memory dysfunction. He movingly examines the impact on personal memories when a hidden truth comes to light. In a persuasive conclusion the author advocates the undervalued practice of “the art of forgetting”—a set of techniques that assist in erasing memories, thereby preserving valuable relationships and encouraging personal contentment.
