How to find a job you love that pays well, too.

Im telling you my story to give you an idea of the hope that is stored up in our Lord Jesus Christ. Because I lived in bitterness all my life, God could not use the potential that He created in me. As a result of my bitterness, my struggles varied from doubting my gender, doubting my mere existence and of course doubting the love of God for me. Even though I did not always live out my ungodly mindset, I firmly believed that I should live this lifestyle in order to be happy. I never really consulted with God about the matter. I simply thought God was being unfair to me for making me this way Over a timeframe of four years, God showed me the issues in my life that made me believe this lie from satan. The lie that robbed me from an abundant life in God and with the people He allowed to cross my path. If you are happy to be gay, you will find that this book is not for you. This book is for people who are unhappy being gay. Although I cannot even begin to think that anyone can be happy not …

The work of Jaap Mooy (1916-1987) covers more than 50 years, in a period in which he constantly explored new paths and re-invented himself in terms of styles and techniques. Although Mooy became closely involved with the Cobra movement, he had no desire to become a member of the group. He was one of the first Dutch artists to use scrap metal to create sculptures. Together with Karel Appel and Lucebert, he represented the Netherlands at the Venice Biennale in 1964. As the basis for sources of inspiration in the 1970s and '80s, he alternated between the geometrical, the conceptual and the figurative. However, throughout his work, his attitude remained unchanged, coloured by a dark vision of the human condition: a cynical view of power and those in power, a critical attitude towards society, an unshakable faith in the task of art: to choose the side of victims while maintaining the poetic nature of the image. The orthopaedic shoemaker Jacques Defauwes and his wife Miny, well-known art col…

Musical monogamy has never been Christy Doran’s thing. The appropriate band for every occasion, no fixed liaison, which you inseparably associate with his name, no clear bond, but instead several affairs that blaze brightly or just glimmer on the back burner depending on needs. The whirling guitarist, born in Greystone, Ireland, and raised in Lucerne, Switzerland, never wanted to commit to one single relationship. Such a thing would have slowed him down too much in his seemingly insatiable desire for the unknown, the new, the anarchistic. He has embarked on a number of adventurous journeys during his long career, sometimes more, sometimes less intense. Many involved quite prominent musicians such as Carla Bley, Albert Mangelsdorff, Bob Stewart, Edvard Vesala, Charlie Mariano, Manfred Schoof, Iréne Schweizer, Aldo Romano, Piérre Favre, Peter Schärli, Glenn Ferris, Wolfgang Dauner, Heiri Känzig, Sonny Sharrock, Lauren Newton, Tim Berne, Jim Black, Gunther Schuller or Airto Moreira. Ot…

This stunning photo book, accompanying the same-titled film Amsterdam Urban Jungle, demonstrates the amount of wildlife found in our direct vicinity. Our parks and gardens are full of rabbits, rose-ringed parakeets, turtles and coots. Some animals we never see, because we’re fast asleep when they go rummaging around in search of scraps of food, or because they deftly raid our larder just when we’re not watching. The abundance of food and variety of mini-landscapes make the city a very attractive habitat for many animals. In fact, cities may harbour more wildlife than nature parks outside the city. Urban ecologists Remco Daalder and Geert Timmermans explain why that is, and how remarkable that is. Photographer Frans Lemmens observes how animals adapt to life in the city, and has taken incredible urban wildlife photographs of for instance the peregrine falcon, the grass snake, the dwarf bat and the common swift. Whether the animals are cuddly like the squirrel or a predator such as the f…
