«Have you ever had a gut feeling or butterflies in your stomach? Has hunger ever changed your mood? Our bellies and brains are physically and biochemically connected in a number of ways, meaning the state of our intestines can alter the way our brains work and behave, giving a whole new meaning to Food for thought.
As a nutritionist, microbiologist and neuroscientist, Ruairi Robertson is passionate about the link between our bellies and brains. His research is examining how our intestines and the microbes within them can influence both physical and mental health, and most importantly how our diets influence this relationship. Ruairi has travelled the world researching food, and believes it is the key to global public health. Ruairi is a PhD student in University College Cork in Ireland and current Fulbright Scholar (2015/16) to Harvard University.

По статистике журнала Fortune (от 10 ноября 1986 года) Майкл Франчезе – сын знаменитого Джона «Сонни» Франчезе и самый молодой из всех мафиози – занимал 18-ое место в списке 50-ти самых влиятельных и состоятельных боссов мафии. На посту капитана преступной семьи Коломбо он промышлял бензиновым рэкетом и получал по $6-8 000 000 в неделю, продавая миллиарды галлонов по заниженным ценам. Майкл также получал регулярную прибыль с ростовщиков и букмекеров, спортивных агентств, автодилеров и мастерских, ресторанов, ночных клубов и профсоюзов. На полный перечень изощрённых операций молодого Франчезе ушла целая страница журнала.
Он стал первым и единственным человеком, кто – без защиты властей – сумел остаться в живых после ухода из мафии. Долгие годы он боролся в суде с самым известным и безжалостным прокурором Нью-Йорка Рудольфом Джулиани, но вопреки всем его доказательствам и показаниям информаторов от ФБР, Франчезе всегда добивался оправдательного приговора. После четырех неудачных попыток посадить мафиози в тюрьму, власти решили пойти с ним на сделку. Так, вместо 150-300 лет за решеткой Майкл получил всего 10, из которых отсидел 8 лет.
После тюрьмы он начал новую жизнь: стал автором нескольких книг, обрел сильную веру и даже записался в священники. В настоящее время он работает над целым рядом проектов, включая два сериала про мафию, одну постановку в Лас-Вегасе и новый фильм с Томом Хэнксом.

Dr. Brené Brown is a researcher professor at the University of Houston, Graduate College of Social Work, where she has spent the past ten years studying a concept that she calls Wholeheartedness, posing the questions: How do we engage in our lives from a place of authenticity and worthiness? How do we cultivate the courage, compassion, and connection that we need to embrace our imperfections and to recognize that we are enough — that we are worthy of love, belonging and joy? Brené is the author of I Thought It Was Just Me (but it isnt): Telling the Truth About Perfectionism, Inadequacy, and Power (2007) and the forthcoming books, The Gifts of Imperfection (2010) and Wholehearted: Spiritual Adventures in Falling Apart, Growing Up, and Finding Joy ( 2011).

Nick talks about the importance of parenting in early childhood and its significance in overcoming hopelessness. Willpower is a driving force for making our big dreams come true, but if we dont get a miracle in life, we can always be a miracle to someone else.
Nick Vujicic was born in Australia to a Serbian immigrant family, with a rare disorder characterized by the absence of all four limbs. Most of his childhood he struggled with depression, and after a suicide attempt he decided to concentrate on what he did have instead on what he didnt. He realized that his life story inspires many people.

The world is home to a plethora of fascinating ancient ruins, from crumbling cities to temples that have withstood the test of time. Many of these ancient societies were incredibly innovative and forward thinking. Just take a look at their meticulous city planning and incredible feats of engineering; some of which we are yet to fully understand. Some of the most captivating ancient ruins are full of thousand-year-old mysteries that will boggle even the most curious of minds.
Southeast Asia at its best. 85% of the country is untouched nature, widespread forests, steep mountains and wide river valleys, but also cool high plateaus and savannahs. The primeval forests support a fauna like something out of a fairy tale, with elephants, tigers, leopards, and some of the rarest animal species on the planet. Species never seen by humans are discovered at regular intervals. In recent decades, the few large mammals to be described for the first time were all found in Indochina and experts assume that most of them are at home in Laos: wild oxen such as the saola and kuprey or the truong son munjak. No outsider has ever seen a living specimen of the latter; its existence is only known indirectly, through skeletons, horns and bag that are occasionally found in remote villages. And there is the Mekong, one of the last untamed rivers on Earth. Fed by hundreds of tributaries, it is one of the richest freshwater systems on the planet, comparable only with the Congo or Amazon. This is where the Mekong catfish lives. At 3 meters long and weighing in at 300 kilograms, this monster must be the largest freshwater fish on earth.
