We all create stories to explain what we experience. Every shared experience is not necessarily equally shared. The stories we create about our experiences are uniquely our own. So what follows is a little flavor of what’s contained within: In the beginning, sensations were scattered like seeds, Selectively planting thoughts that reflected our needs. These thoughts organically blossomed and grew, Subtly taking root in our evolving point of view. Interest and focused meditation caused us to think, Creating ever more imaginative and complex links. These mental links eventually formed the foundation For the beliefs that would drive future story creation. Fertile minds became active laboratories, Quickly transforming thoughts into elaborate stories. Thoughts and preferences became the proverbial clay, Molding and shaping each story in a very special way. Biases became silent contributors to story creation, Leading us to share less fact and more interpretation. Soon it didn’t matter whether stories were true, Only that they had personal value to you. When later we revisit the stories we created, We find some are still fresh and others outdated. But no matter what we feel or others might say, The reality remains that it’s all BS anyway! The end. 100

Population ageing - a growth in the proportion of a population that is in older age - is now occurring in every region and nearly every country of the world. Indeed, the growth of older populations is among the important global phenomena of the twenty-first century. It poses both opportunities and challenges for societies and policy makers, but these are far from uniform worldwide. Dynamic factors are at work impacting on how ageing will influence people, places and policies and there are large variations in the rate and timing of population ageing across countries, owing to differing social, health and economic circumstances and a variety of policy options from which to choose. Given this variation in the context of global ageing as a backdrop, this edited book focuses on three overarching themes that are among the most critical to understand if societies are to age successfully in the twenty-first century and beyond: Healthy ageing and health care; the ageing workforce, retirement and the provision of pensions; shifting intergenerational relations. These three themes are cross-cut by other dimensions that are intertwined with the dynamic processes of ageing, such as immigration/emigration, contrasting policy regimes and global and national economic forces. This ground-breaking book will be of interest to all scholars, students and policy-makers working within this area of study.

A gritty insight into the city, clubs and lifestyle of the early Chicago Punk scene of the late 1970s and '80s. This narrative follows the author's introduction to punk rock via the notorious Chicago night clubs -- O'Banion's and OZ. The hedonism of the lifestyle and her harrowing exploits stand in stunning contrast to her accidental role as the primary caregiver for her mother, who was disabled by Multiple Sclerosis. Story recounts the rise of the teenage hardcore scene over the bar based punk scene, to the later decline that began with the emergence of a skinhead jock era, along with the author's personal evolution as a photographer and zine producer. In 2006, she discovered a thriving underground scene in the Pilsen/La Villita neighborhoods. Today she is happy to declare that punk is not dead, and neither is she. Includes the author's photographs of the 1980s and 2006 bands, the crowds, her BS Detector fanzine, and other memorabilia. A visual delight that truly paints a picture of the era!

In this Silver Creek Romance from New York Times bestselling author Maisey Yates, former rodeo star Cade Mitchell may never ride again, but there are still a few things he can do—like care for the woman he loves. Amber Jameson has always thought of her best friend Cade as an older brother. A really hot older brother. But growing up in foster care, she learned to rely only on herself. As much as she likes stealing glances at Cade’s chiseled jaw and painted-on jeans, she resents the way he swoops in like a superhero to fix things for her. When former rodeo rival Jim Davis starts harassing Amber to sell her grandfather’s failing ranch, Cade swoops in once again. To send Jim on his way, Cade pretends to be Amber’s boyfriend, moving in to help fix the place up. With her grandfather behind the idea, Amber and Cade have to keep the charade going—whether she likes it or not. But as their make-believe romance starts to heat up, maybe Cade and Amber will learn to admit that they both could use a little saving.... “Steamy....complete with secrets, anger, intrigue, and love.”—Publishers Weekly
