إنه نوع آخر من السحر، لا علاقة له بالشياطين، أيها التـاجر الطيب ولا يتم من خلاله إلحاق الضرر والأذى بالآخرين. إنه السحر العلمي الـذي يـسخر فـيه الكاهـنُ المـادةَ لـصالـحه، فـيتـسنى له التـلاعـب بمشاعـركم وعقولـكم، إنه السحر الذي يُخضِع الكـاهنُ به الطبيعةَ بوسائل وطرق آلية، مستغلًّا نظريات فيزيائية وكيميائية يعلمها دون غيره، فيمكنه تحويل الهواء إلى ماء، أو تحويل الماء إلى هواء إذا شاء ويمكنه تطبـيب المريض بأعشاب خاصة، أو إهـلاك البدن بالسموم لـكن كـهنـة هذا الزمان لا يعملـون كـعلمـاء، بـل كسحـرة دجالــيـن محاولـين إقناع النـاس بقدرة سحرهم القوي على درأ المرض. إنهم يعمدون إلى إخفاء تلك الأسرار، وحجبها عن عامة الناس؛ كي يستأثروا بعقول الملوك والأمراء فيغدقون عليهم بالهدايا والعطايـا الكـثيـرة ومـا تلـك النُذُر التي تعتـقد فيـها إلّا دجلًا يريده لكم بعض الكهنـة ليزعموا أنهم يملكون أن يدخلوا الرجل إلى العالم الآخر بسلام عند استـقبالـه بعد موتـه. فتـجد تلك الأفكـار المرعبـة سبيـلًا إلى قلـوب العوام، فيهرعون إلى تقـديم العطايـا والقرابـين للآلهة. ولكنـهـا في الواقع، تقع في أيدي الكهنة النافذين، فيختلسونها جميعًا، ويملؤون بها بطونهم، وهم بذلك ينصبون أنفسهم أوصياء على الدين

وهذه المدينة غابة مليئة بالوحوش، يا قاتل فيها يا مقتول، فهل أراد الله لها كل ذلك الشرّ؟ أم أن السكَّان هم من اختاروا لها الهلاك؟ وماذا لو كان الله قد فرض فيها الخير ولم يعطهم حرية اختياره؟ فهل تكون هذه هي نتيجة الحرية التي منحهم إياها؟ وناصح يريد لهم الخير كما يقولون، وسيف ابني يضع لي «المصلية»، ويسألني قائلا - «لما لا تصلي يا أبي؟» وأردُ على سؤاله بسؤال قائلا - «ولما أصلي يا سيف؟» فيجيبني قائلا - «صل لأجل النبي لأجل يوم البعث»، وهل البعث حقيقة يا سيف؟ وهل سيبعث جدك من جديد؟ فيجيبني قائلا - «نعم يا أبي إن البعث حقيقة وإن السعادة في هذه المدينة ليست حقيقية وليست بدائمة وإنما السعداء الذين يعملون حساب هذه اللحظة»، ثم يؤمُّني ولأول مرة بحياتي أتذوق طعم راحة وسكينة تسري في عروقي، وأنت كنت تصلي يا عبد المطلب، وكنت تركع وتسجد كأنما سيفوتك القطار، فلما لم تطلب يوما مني أن أصلي؟ ويا ترى أكانت صلاتك هي سر راحتك الدائمة وشعورك بالرضا؟ ولكنَّني بمجرد أن أنتهي يعود الحزن يرجفني رجفة قوية، ويدعسني بأقدامه الفولاذية، ويسحق رقبتي، ويستكثر عليَّ ثانية أرتاح بها منه. فأرتدي ملابسك، وساعة يدك، ونظارتك، وحذائك، وأستعد قبل خفق امرأة سعيد جارنا للبيض، وأهرع بالنزول منتصف الليل مع كتابك غيرالنافع، لأسير في غمرة الليل الحزين هائما على وجهي متألما، في طريقي إلى جنينة «الجبَّانة» التي كنت تجلس فيها حتى تطلع الشمس.

Em J Parsley's the anonym gospels explores faith-and the longing for faith after the loss of it-through the lens of a queer Appalachian "gospel" in the Greek sense of the word: "good news." Told in four parts, each gospel takes us through a transition point that we as readers bear witness to: from dogma to questioning, from questioning to fear, from fear to resolution, and what comes after this reckoning: the apocryphal gospel. The good news that these poems have to offer is bittersweet: we must confront the painfully stark realities of loving a place and people that often try to deny our existence, but there is tenderness and care to be found (and created) in that landscape. Parsley interrogates constructed binaries of legitimacy-hetero vs. queer, canonical vs. apocryphal-and ultimately asks us to join them on the "illegitimate" side of that binary.

Author C. Owen was never satisfied with his research. He had plans that expanded the capabilities of the human mind, and he was willing to use everyone he worked with to achieve his objectives. His ultimate dream was to become the all-powerful computer he invented. His goal was world domination, but that required the acquisition of power; the kind of power that was only available if you controlled Artificial Intelligence at the highest level. Author had a carefully designed plan that would make him the ultimate dictator after his death, controlling the whole world. His faithful staff were oblivious of his goals, and during an election year, they jokingly thought it would be fun to submit the Author Project as a write-in candidate. An AI computer program as the leader of the free world-it was funny. No one would support such an asinine idea. Or would they?

Haunted by his past, he is determined to remain hidden, away from the relentless fae and the ruthless bradaís alike. Confronting either could spell disaster for the fragile peace he's found with Ryanne. Ryanne finds herself ensnared in a deadly game of fae and bradaís. The conflict threatens to crush her spirit and twist her fate with a darkness that is beyond anything she's encountered before.

On 25 January 2019 hundreds of people perished when a tailings dam at an iron ore mine in Brazil failed catastrophically.Liquified waste suffocated workers in seconds, and filled the valley below with sludge, destroying lives and livelihoodsforever. The Brumadinho tragedy captured the world's attention, and triggered the Global Tailings Review, a multistakeholder process co-convened by the United Nations-backed Principles for Responsible Investment, the United Nations Environment Program, and the world's largest mining companies through the International Council on Mining andMetals. The review was intended to learn lessons from past failures to prevent future disasters. This book describes the politicsof the process from the perspective of two expert panellists who supported the independent chair in drafting a new globaltailings Standard. It provides an insider account of the review, its key achievements and its numerous flaws. Hopkins and Kemp document in forensic detail how the Standard came to represent a step change, yet also falls short. The book providesunique insights into the extent to which the mining industry wielded power to serve its own self-interest. It also describeshow different stakeholders in the process sought to counter the collective power of mining companies, and how other globalevents, from COVID-19 to the destruction of ancient Aboriginal caves in the Juukan Gorge in Australia, shaped the finaloutcome. The mining industry largely got what it wanted and in doing so limit edits ability to overcome its own crisis ofcredibility.

Continuing the western tradition of "bastard ghazals" that do not hold to the form or intent of the 13thcentury Sufi mystics who wrote of religious devotion and erotic longing, these poems are collagestracing a route at the edges of suburban houses filled with doppelganger children, county jails andflophouse hotels, Sonny Liston and Geechie Wiley, Maurice Sendak and the Lindburgh baby, PhilipGuston, Willie Bobo, recidivist airline stowaways, and the numinous messages left between the cloudsand garbage dumpsters.These poems breathe in a space framed by psychoanalyst Michael Eigen: "We are part of one greatparadoxical monism, a wholeness that thrives on fragmentary processes, bits and pieces throbbing withsignificance," and the poet Charles Simic, "The poem is an attempt at self-recovery, self-recognition, self-remembering, the marvel of being again... A poem is a piece of the unutterable whole."
