This essay places the emerging brain-Internet interface within a broad historical context: that the Internet represents merely the next stage in a very long history of human cognition whereby the brain couples with symbolic technologies. Understanding this 'deep history' provides a way to imagine the future of brain-Internet cognition.

The remote work revolution presents a unique opportunity for higher education institutions to reinvent themselves and become talent magnets.In Knowledge Towns, David J. Staley and Dominic D. J. Endicott argue that the location of a college or university is a necessary piece of any region's effort to attract remote knowledge workers and accelerate economic development and creative placemaking. Just as every town expects a church, bank branch, post office, and coffeehouse, Staley and Endicott write, we will see a decentralized network of institutions of higher education flourish, acting as cornerstones for the post-pandemic rebuilding of our society and economy. In calling for a "college in any town," they are not simply proposing placing a traditional college within a town or city, but envisioning instead a particular kind of higher education institution called a "knowledge enterprise." In addition to providing the services of a traditional college, a knowledge enterprise acts as a talent magnet, attracting workers looking to move to cheaper and more attractive destinations.With the post-COVID-19 shift to more remote work, and millions of people moving to more affordable and livable cities, a place that wants to attract talent will require a thriving academic environment. This represents a new opportunity for "town and gown" to create collaborative communities. The pandemic has accelerated existing trends that put at risk the viability of many colleges and universities, as well as that of many towns and cities. The talent magnet strategy outlined in this book offers colleges and towns a plan of action for regeneration.
The Architecture of Stanley D. Anderson, with James Ticknor and William Bergmann
Stanley D. Anderson's standard of architecture has sustained the test of time. His designs for residences, commercial buildings, schools, and Gentlemen's Farms are still praised today for his attention to detail, solid design work, and high-quality standards. This picture book illustrates through historic photos and drawings from the firm's archive the classical styles that the firm members drew upon over many decades of work. Through his signature Country Georgian style, Anderson and his associates transformed Lake Forest. Designed for local history buffs, amateur and professional architects, and the simply curious, this book provides biographies and interior perspectives on the production of Anderson and his associates, William Bergmann and James Ticknor, and their distinctive interpretation of a transformative architectural style.About the Author Paul Bergmann is a lifelong resident of Lake Bluff, Illinois. Before venturing into corporate law, he worked at Stanley D. Anderson, beginning about the fifth grade, mainly putting away flat files and detail drawings in an estimated ten thousand drawing collection. He is a board member of the Lake Bluff History Museum. He is a past board member of the Lake Forest Preservation Foundation and the Elawa Farm Foundation, which raises funds to restore and preserve barns, stables, and outbuildings at Elawa Farm. When not involved in local activities, he enjoys fishing in Canada and Mexico and traveling with his partner, Janet Gibson.

Présence de la Tradition Primordiale: E. A. Poe, G. Meyrink, H. P. Lovecraft, J. R. R. Tolkien, Stanley Kubrick et d'autres...
Combien de fois a‐t‐on per u le livre ouvert, une peinture - ainsi La Joconde, gracieuse nigme scellant un vertigineux savoir - ou l' cran comme le seuil d'une r v lation capitale d s lors que susceptible de modifier le chemin existentiel ? La r ponse que l'oeuvre pourrait apporter, bien que se d robant nous, laisse fugitivement place la pr sence d'un indicible ailleurs . L'artiste avait‐il conscience que son talent fr lait un continent inconnu mais combien redoutable en regard de l'humaine condition ? Fissurant le tangible, ces lectures, mouvements d'images ou ressentis esth tiques font parfois transpara tre la probabilit d'un myst rieux Centre supr me, synonyme d' ge d'Or, lieu polaire duquel, dit Ren Gu non, est issue la notion de Tradition primordiale ... Primordiale car cons quente l'aurore d'un cycle et l'essentialit des signifiances que cela suppose.Certains cr ateurs au talent des plus affirm s seront donc, parfois, en r sonance avec cette primordialit , m me fragmentairement per ue. Telle est la r ponse l' merveillement que procure une oeuvre. Et ce, tandis que, subvertissant la gouvernance des peuples, d'occultes organismes, assujettis l'Hubris titanique (tant honnie par les sages de jadis), s'efforcent d'an antir ce qui pourrait susciter l'adh sion aux v rit s inh rentes l'origine. travers des auteurs aussi connus que Chr tien de Troyes, E. A. Poe, Alain‐Fournier, Gustav Meyrink, H. P. Lovecraft, William Sloane, J. R. R. Tolkien et des cin astes (Stanley Kubrick et Georges Lucas en t te), l'auteur montre que le message de la Tradition primordiale demeure secr tement pr sent.

You've waited several days, and finally your physician is on the phone. The results of your biopsy are in. You brace as the words come. "I'm sorry, but it's cancer." Now what? An uncertain journey looms as the dreaded word cancer invades your life. You face a vague new normal - forced to come to grips with an unwelcome sense of vulnerability; lack of control; and undeniable anxiety and fear. Howard, Stanley, and Me explores the author's eight-plus year journey with this dreaded disease. You'll be introduced to Stanley, the name ascribed to this unwelcome intruder by innocent grandchildren. You'll dive deeply into the inner thoughts, struggles, regrets, and victories of the author as cancer causes him to confront the past while an uncertain future unfolds. And you'll meet Howard - the great physician who both heals and redeems. Told from a deeply personal and reflective perspective, this book is for anyone facing a life-altering or life-threatening illness. And it is for all who love and those who treat someone walking that path. The reader will discover that God comes to us not in "pillars of clouds or fire", but in simple acts and words of love.
