Katie Hall's poems are of the rare kind that pierce right into your soul, leaving a tingling feeling under your skin, matched only by the speechless silence enveloping the roaring storms in your mind. In other words: They touch you. Not as soapy pathos - on contrary, they touch your deepest, poorly-lit spots because they are so real and relevant. No matter if you have lived situations similar to what the poems get into, you feel that you are right there, right in it. You empathise not with 'the author' or 'a narrator' ...but with yourself. What makes Katie Hall's poetry lie so close to our own struggles and doubts are their way of spinning around the swirl formed by the eternal dilemma between needing and resisting, between shame and desire. Ultimately, between honesty and pretence. To be read one by one, reflected upon, and then re-read. If you are up to it. 'Cause you will discover sides of yourself that you had forgotten about or stowed away. Now, with Katie Hall, it is time to find it back. -Bj rn Clasen-
The Closeness That Separates Us - when feelings go beyond words 'We are already moving into a game, and I am not sure I like the gaming part. The risk is too high, fun, however it might be. I want real life, in all its aspects, and yes, also the risky ones. Games are just games. It's like fiction, where you can try out things, see if they work, throw possibilities up into the air and see whatever falls down, with a bump, with a crash, with a gentle landing, with a bounce, and what fl oats or flies around up there, in the sky, be it beautiful but out of reach, or controlled from the ground, by the artist. That's fine, but unreal. My half-told stories, my mediocre poems, my indifferent blog scribblings can do that, but I want real life, and real-life risks when it seems worth running them. So show it to me, your purgatory. Describe it. In a mail, or a picture, whatever you find fitting. Or not fitting at all. I want your words, if they are real, and I want to feel the person behind the words. So I am just saying: Keep feeding me mails, keep tickling my mind. If you one day want to tickle my toes, I am sure that can be negotiated too, somehow, somewhere, somewhen. As long as it's real and not just words and thoughts and "what if" speculations and dreams. Those, I have had plenty of, just like you mention. Short-lived, split-second things, roaring by before they became unblurry. This is different. You are different. I like it.'

"Aftershock: Rethinking the Future Since September 11, 2001" is the record of a three-day conference held in Lower Manhattan September 6 - 8, 2006 at Pace University.

This book presents the most extensive and well-documented examination of this incredible phenomenon. It includes more than 75 colour and B&W photographs. This volume is the first and most extensive examination of what is known as the 'Orb phenomenon' - where photographs show extraordinary images of glowing orbs and other amazing light forms, when such objects were not present at the taking of the picture. "Beyond Photography" is the fullest personal account of one couple's experience with this ever-increasing phenomenon. The authors, who are professional photographers, were originally sceptical of New Age ideas, but after thousands of their photographs showed the same amazing objects they started to reach some extraordinary conclusions. With its stunning photographs of this incredible phenomenon, and the firsthand accounts of eyewitnesses, this volume is a must-have for anyone interested in the paranormal.
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2009 im Fachbereich Geschichte - Sonstiges, Note: 1,3, Humboldt-Universitat zu Berlin, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Zufall, Gluck, Willkur, personliche Vorlieben, die grosse Auslosung - und am Ende steht der stolze Gewinner fest. Bei der Wahl des Siegers der grossen Dionysien haben sich die Athener fur ein aussergewohnliches und kompliziertes Verahren entschieden. Es beinhaltet zwei Auslosungen, den Einsatz von Laien als Schiedsrichter und die Nichtbeachtung der Halfte aller abgegebenen Stimmen. In dieser Arbeit soll untersucht werden, wie jenes uns fragwurdig erscheinende Verfahren genau ablief und ob es die logische Schlussfolgerung aus den Prinzipien der attischen Gesellschaft ist und diese gegebenenfalls in ihren Grundzugen wiederspiegelt. Zeigt dieses Verfahren zur Siegerwahl Parallelen auf zur Lebenswelt der Griechen? Wie eng sind gesellschaftliche und politische Merkmale hier mit dem Theater verbunden? Im Mittelpunkt der Untersuchungen stehen die stadtischen Dionysien, die in Athen im Marz beziehungsweise April eines jeden Jahres statt fanden. Zunachst soll diskutiert werden, wie die Bedingungen der Siegerwahl waren, also wie der festgelegte Ablauf war und welche Bestimmungen es dafur gab. Dabei sind die Auslosung der zustandigen Schiedsrichter und die anschliessende Auslosung des Siegers eng miteinander verbunden. Es folgt die Darstellung wichtiger Pinzipien der attischen Gesellschaft und darauf folgend die Untersuchung, ob und in welcher Weise diese sich beim Ablauf der Siegerwahl zei
