An Ars Technica Holiday Reading Title of 2021 A lively and approachable meditation on how we can transform our digital lives if we let a little Nietzsche in. Who has not found themselves scrolling endlessly on screens and wondered: Am I living or distracting myself from living? In Emergency, Break Glass adapts Friedrich Nietzsche’s passionate quest for meaning into a world overwhelmed by “content.” Written long before the advent of smartphones, Nietzsche’s aphoristic philosophy advocated a fierce mastery of attention, a strict information diet, and a powerful connection to the natural world. Drawing on Nietzsche’s work, technology journalist Nate Anderson advocates for a life of goal-oriented, creative exertion as more meaningful than the “frictionless” leisure often promised by our devices. He rejects the simplicity of contemporary prescriptions like reducing screen time in favor of looking deeply at what truly matters to us, then finding ways to make our technological tools serve this vision. With a light touch suffused by humor, Anderson uncovers the impact of this “yes-saying” philosophy on his own life—and perhaps on yours.

SUMMARY : Dad had promised to return for fourteen-year-old Darren and his sister Sally when he'd been taken away by the army. But when the West Midlands area is evacuated before the Russians drop their germ bomb, he still hasn't returned and they are left behind. Only when Sally dies does Darren discover that the Affected Zone is being fenced in and that there is no escape for him or the small number of others immune to the disease. Lonely, Darren tries to re-establish his friendship with Alex. But Alex has teamed up with Budge, a vicious gangleader, and they want Darren dead. However not only is it difficult for him to survive against murderous gangs but he is angry and bitter because his Dad betrayed his promise to return to them.

Helmut Petritsch describes the first holistic approach to Break-Glass which covers the whole life-cycle: from access control modeling (pre-access), to logging the security-relevant system state during Break-Glass accesses (at-access), and the automated analysis of Break-Glass accesses (post-access). Break-Glass allows users to override security restrictions in exceptional situations. While several Break-Glass models specific to given access control models have already been discussed in research (e.g., extending RBAC with Break-Glass), the author introduces a generic Break-Glass model. The presented model is generic both in the sense that it allows to model existing Break-Glass approaches and that it is independent of the underlying access control model.

"As elliptical and demanding as Emily Dickinson, Valentine consistently rewards the reader."—Library Journal In her eleventh collection—honored as a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in poetry—Jean Valentine characteristically weds a moral imperative to imaginative and linguistic leaps and bounds. Whether writing elegies, meditations on aging, or an extended homage to Lucy, the earliest known hominid, the pared-down compactness of her tone and vision reveals a singular voice in American poetry. As Adrienne Rich has said of Valentine's work, "This is a poetry of the highest order, because it lets us into spaces and meanings we couldn't approach in any other way." From "If a Person Visits Someone in a Dream, in Some Cultures the Dreamer Thanks Them": At a hotel in another star. The rooms were cold and damp, we were both at the desk at midnight asking if they had any heaters. They had one heater. You are ill, please you take it. Thank you for visiting my dream. * Can you breathe all right? Break the glass shout break the glass force the room break the thread Open the music behind the glass . . . Jean Valentine, a former State Poet of New York, earned a National Book Award, the Wallace Stevens Award, and the Shelley Memorial Prize. She has taught at Sarah Lawrence, New York University, and Columbia University. She lives in the Morningside Heights neighborhood of New York City.

In this paradigm-shifting dating guide, love and dating expert, Crista Beck shows us how to stop Hollywood and Disney from ruining our love lives so we can find love in real life. For decades, we’ve been told that love just magically happens when we least expect it. “How’s love going to happen for you if you’re just sitting on the couch watching Netflix?”, Crista Beck says. “Let’s be honest, love is not happening for you because you believe the societal fantasies about dating and relationships.” Beck doesn’t sugar coat the reasons why we are still single. She tells it like it is - a strong dose of raw and honest truth that is sorely lacking today. Break The Glass Slipper is her antidote to the myths about the process of dating that have infected modern society and the minds of single women, sabotaging our ability to attract a healthy and happy long-term relationship. Beck makes the argument, backed by her 10+ years working with single women seeking men, that improving our love lives hinges on our ability to let go of these outdated mindsets that are preventing us from receiving our future partner into our life. Once we distinguish the fairy tales we have been telling ourselves about love, we can then choose a new path (based on reality), and find a real connection with a quality man that can evolve into a long-term relationship. This much-needed dating advice, Break The Glass Slipper is a refreshing and powerful nudge for a generation to break our own glass slippers and lead healthy and powerful love lives.

"A gut-wrenching story told with honesty, restraint, and dignity." —Ha Jin, National Book Award-winning author of Waiting Chanrithy Him felt compelled to tell of surviving life under the Khmer Rouge in a way "worthy of the suffering which I endured as a child." In a mesmerizing story, Chanrithy Him vividly recounts her trek through the hell of the "killing fields." She gives us a child's-eye view of a Cambodia where rudimentary labor camps for both adults and children are the norm and modern technology no longer exists. Death becomes a companion in the camps, along with illness. Yet through the terror, the members of Chanrithy's family remain loyal to one another, and she and her siblings who survive will find redeemed lives in America. A Finalist for the Kiriyama Pacific Rim Book Prize.
