The awarding ceremony will be held on Dec. Next, Mo Yan added, he would still focus on writing his new book. ![]() "But I feel this award doesn't mean too much for me. There are many outstanding Chinese writers, whose excellent works could also be recognized by the world." "I'm very happy to hear the news," Mo told China News Service after he was informed that he won the Nobel prize. "Mo Yan," meaning "don't speak" in Chinese, is a pen name.

Modern cosmology has revealed a universe vastly larger than Pascal could have conceived in 1660. Science not only supports but amplifies their famous declarations. Pascal says we are small Whitman says we are large. In his Pensees (“Thoughts”), Blaise Pascal wrote: “By space the universe encompasses and swallows me up like an atom.” In Leaves of Grass Walt Whitman wrote: “I contain multitudes.” On the surface, Pascal and Whitman seem to be saying very different things. ![]() ![]() Here are 3 of the most fascinating lessons from this book: Even though the media boasts objective, trustworthy reports, they are only a puppet of those who are really in charge. Chomsky argues that with an unequal division of wealth and power comes a wildly uneven distribution of stories that favors the upper class. These are the claims of Noam Chomsky’s Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media. ![]() The government and other people who control the country are more in charge of what you see on the television than you might think. In addition to entertaining us, these sources also promote certain social norms and behaviors. The mass media has a dark side to it that you may not have thought of before. Do you ever watch the news and ask yourself what the motivations are for a station sharing a particular story? Information should be informative, entertaining, and amusing, but is it always this way? ![]() ![]() ![]() We are in a world that is reaching a pivotal point of change - and you have a choice: to be the disruptor or the disrupted. We’ll go over the importance of having cheerleaders inside and outside the financial planning profession, how to promote representation and visibility to encourage the generations to come to be anything they want to be, how to surround yourself with people who act as mentors and help you grow, and how to get involved with groups (such as Quad A) that are actively working to increase diversity in financial planning. ![]() In this episode of 2050 TrailBlazers, Lazetta and I are going to tackle many important topics. She is a true trailblazer in the financial planning profession - she serves as the Chair of the Association of African American Financial Advisors (Quad A), she’s on the board of the Foundation of Financial Planning, and she’s an active member of the CFP Board’s Center for Financial Planning Advisory Panel, Women’s Initiative Council, and the Diversity Advisory Group.

As a store of cultural meanings that offer models for interpreting experience, folktales function as a form of cultural memory, but because they do so within a patriarchal culture, the type and range of meanings possible are challenged by focusing attention on women's perspectives. When contemporary Korean-American authors Mia Yun and Nora Okja Keller incorporate and retell folktales within their novels, they at once draw on the cultural assumptions conserved and disseminated through these tales and engage critically with their gendered discourses. ![]() ![]() ![]() “Elaine and her primary school siblings drove themselves in a horse and sulky to Cubbaroo Siding, a distance of approximately three miles (or five kilometres) from ‘Drumard’ homestead. ![]() “The 30s decade, including the Depression Years. “So, she was called Babe by family and close friends all her life, and I would suspect now, would be the oldest Babe around. “Elaine was born in Wee Waa to Evelyn and Bob Slack-Smith, the youngest of 11 children, nine of them surviving childhood. “But, as a child growing up at ‘Drumard’, Burren Junction, maybe not too much roaring for Elaine. ![]() “Today, I want to talk about Elaine’s 100 years in decades. “Over the years, Elaine’s two major passions have been family and the community. “We’re here to celebrate my mum’s 100th birthday.
