The complete series 1-3 of the blackly comic drama starring Bryan Cranston as a high school chemistry teacher who discovers that he is dying from inoperable lung cancer and decides to raise money for his family by embarking on a new career as a crystal meth dealer.
Season 1
Bryan Cranston gives an Emmy Award-winning performance as Walter White, a down-on-his-luck chemistry teacher struggling to make ends meet for his wife and physically challenged son. Everything changes when Walter receives a startling diagnosis: terminal lung cancer. With only a few years to live and nothing to lose, Walter uses his training as a chemist to cook and sell crystal meth with one of his former students. As his status grows, so do his lies, but Walt will stop at nothing to make sure his family is taken care of after he’s gone, even if it means putting all their lives on the line.
Season 2
Season 2 finds Walt and Jesse in way over their heads. As their partnership reaches new heights, Walt and Jesse begin to see the extremes of the drug trafficking business. Their trademark blue meth is making them rich, but it’s getting more difficult than ever for Walt to conceal the truth from his wife Skyler, his son Walter Jr. and his DEA agent brother-in-law Hank. Walt struggles to maintain control of his life as he contends with vicious drug dealers, an increasingly distant wife and son, the impending birth of his daughter, and a strung-out business partner – all while battling terminal lung cancer.
Season 3
Even though his cancer is in remission, chemistry-teacher-turned-meth- maker Walt White still can’t catch a break. His wife has filed for divorce, his DEA agent brother-in-law is out to bust him and a Mexican cartel just wants him dead. But with his family’s future still at stake, Walt cooks up a deal that will make him a fortune, a scheme with a terrible price.

This Book is Full of Brains
Instant New York Times bestseller "Howard Zinn on acid or some
bullsh*t like that." -Tim Heidecker The creators of the cult-hit
podcast Chapo Trap House deliver a manifesto for everyone who feels
orphaned and alienated-politically, culturally, and economically-by
the lanyard-wearing Wall Street centrism of the left and the
lizard-brained atavism of the right: there is a better way, the
Chapo Way. In a guide that reads like "a weirder, smarter, and
deliciously meaner version of The Daily Show's 2004 America (The
Book)" (Paste), Chapo Trap House shows you that you don't have to
side with either sinking ships. These self-described "assholes from
the internet" offer a fully ironic ideology for all who feel
politically hopeless and prefer broadsides and tirades to reasoned
debate. Learn the "secret" history of the world, politics, media,
and everything in-between that THEY don't want you to know and
chart a course from our wretched present to a utopian future where
one can post in the morning, game in the afternoon, and podcast
after dinner without ever becoming a poster, gamer, or podcaster. A
book that's "as intellectually serious and analytically original as
it is irreverent and funny" (Glenn Greenwald, New York Times
bestselling author of No Place to Hide) The Chapo Guide to
Revolution features illustrated taxonomies of contemporary liberal
and conservative characters, biographies of important thought
leaders, "never before seen" drafts of Aaron Sorkin's Newsroom
manga, and the ten new laws that govern Chapo Year Zero (everyone
gets a dog, billionaires are turned into Soylent, and logic is
outlawed). If you're a fan of sacred cows, prisoners being taken,
and holds being barred, then this book is NOT for you. However, if
you feel disenfranchised from the political and cultural nightmare
we're in, then Chapo, let's go...

Jakkals word wakker met 'n stert wat nie wil swaai nie. Is sy dalk siek? Kan 'n hond se stert net skielik breek? Haar mense is bekommerd, maar dis Lolliepop, Jakkals se beste maat, wat raai wat fout is.
Hulle twee swem mos graag in die dam, waar Jakkals duik en rol soos 'n wafferse walvis. Al wat Jakkals nodig het om beter te word, is iemand wat verstaan, soos Lolliepop! Die scenario van troeteldiere wat hulle eienaars soggens kom wakker maak, is aan baie huishoudings bekend, en kinders sal maklik hiermee identifiseer en assosiasies maak. Die teikenmark (3 – 7 jaar oud) kan op dié ouderdom al met ander simpatiseer en veral wanneer assosiasies gemaak word met gebeure of karakters wat vir hulle emosionele betekenis inhou. Jakkals se dilemma sal jong verbeeldings aanwakker om redes en oplossings te probeer vind. Kreatiewe denke word ook so gestimuleer.
Die skrywer maak dit verder vanuit die staanspoor duidelik dat die ouers (volwassenes) nie Honds verstaan nie, en in hierdie geval dus nie sal kan help nie. Deur op ’n kind te fokus om die saak te beredder, word kinders (’n jong voorleesgehoor) dadelik by die verhaal betrek. Kleuters sal hulle aan die kant van die kind en Jakkals skaar en die verhaal enduit, en waarskynlik herhaaldelik, wil hoor om by die oplossing en gelukkige einde te kom.
Ten spyte van Jakkals se bekommernis, slaag die skrywer daarin om met humor en kreatiewe taalgebruik die verhaal lig en positief te hou. Humor stimuleer kreatiwiteit en waar baie boeke deesdae opvoedkundige of morele boodskappe oordra, is Die hond met die stert sonder swaai ’n lekker storie met baie geleenthede vir prettige interaksie tussen voorleser en kind om aangename boek- en leesherinneringe te skep. Alle lesers het ’n paar boeke uit hulle vroeë kinderjare wat kosbare herinneringe oproep. Prenteboeke kan lewenslange boekliefhebbers skep.
Jakkals' wag won't work! Is she sick? Is her tail broken? Mom and Dad are worried, but it is little Lollipop, her best friend, that knows her best.
Jakkals and Lollipop love swimming in the lake, Jakkals diving and breaching like a whale. She needs nothing more than Lollipop's understanding to regain her wag.
In spite of the problem of Jakkals' seemingly broken wag, the author manages to keep the story light and positive by using humour and creative language. Humour stimulates creativity and brings a fresh angle to the story and a welcome change from other books for this age group, often with educational or moralising messages.
The Dog with the Broken Wag provides lots of opportunity for funfilled interaction between reader and listener, creating lasting memories of shared reading experiences.

Establishing a new set of international perspectives from around
the world on and experiences of death, disposition and remembrance
in urban environments, this book brings deathscapes - material,
embodied and emotional places associated with dying and death - to
life. It pushes the boundaries of established empirical and
conceptual understandings of death in urban spaces through
anthropological, geographical and ethnographic insights. Chapters
reveal how urban deathscapes are experienced, used, managed and
described in specific locales in varied settings; how their norms
and values intersect and at times conflict with the norms of
dominant and assumed practices; and how they are influenced by the
dynamic practices, politics and demographics typical of urban
spaces. Case studies from across Africa, Asia, Europe and North and
South America highlight the differences between deathscapes, but
also show their clear commonality in being as much a part of the
world of the living as they are of the dead. With a people- and
space-centred approach, this book will be an interesting read for
human geography, death studies and urban studies scholars, as well
as social and cultural anthropologists and sociologists. Its
international and interdisciplinary nature will also make this a
beneficial book for planning and landscape architecture, religious
studies and courses on death practices.
