Snap judgments allow the brain to quickly process situations and decide the best course of action. The human brain has two strategies for decision-making: conscious analysis and unconscious snap judgments. ![]() The key to making good decisions is knowing when to trust your intuition and when to analyze a situation more deeply. Intuition can often lead to better judgments by cutting out irrelevant information, but can also be influenced by unconscious biases. We use our intuition in decision-making more than we think. ![]() ![]() ![]() 'Fatal Attraction' Ending Explained: Who Killed Alex?

Don’t make the books too long or the kids may lose interest.As you read the class book over and over, have the children count the five puppies on each page.In a book called “5 Little Puppy Dogs”, for instance, each child in the group can make a page with 5 puppies going to a different place. Choose a number and have the children create two or three class books based on “Ten Little Rubber Ducks”.On day three, count how many ducks are on each page.On the second day read the book and talk about the story and the pictures.Read Ten Little Rubber Ducks right through on the first day.The children can then use crayons or felts to add words, water, plants, or anything they like to their pictures. Have the children cut sections of ducks out of the free duck picture handout, glue them to their papers and then print the correct number of ducks beside each group. Try the activities below with your students to help them practice counting sets of ducks and to learn how to use ordinal numbers. The story begins in the factory where the ducks are made. They’re then loaded on a freighter but during stormy weather ten of little rubber ducks fall into the ocean and float away. This delightful tale is another example of Carle’s colourful tissue paper collage style. ![]() ![]() When her cousin Lily ropes her into pledging a mysterious, elite, and all-female secret society called the White Gloves, Sawyer soon discovers that someone in the group’s ranks may have the answers she’s looking for. But the answers Sawyer found during her debutante year only left her with more questions and one potentially life-ruining secret. Reluctant debutante Sawyer Taft joined Southern high society for one reason and one reason alone: to identify and locate her biological father. Deadly Little Scandals picks up where Little White Lies leaves off. The first book, Little White Lies, introduces readers to Sawyer Taft, and 18-year-old mechanic who suddenly finds herself in the middle of Southern high society. ![]() If you are looking for a fast-paced mystery with juicy, and somewhat absurd but entertaining details, then Jennifer Lynn Barnes’ Debutantes books are a must read.

Each chapter and section of the book is built around a single person’s story, mostly the accounts of women and girls from Asia and Africa. Through the deft journalistic documentation of real people’s stories, these well-traveled authors have composed a vivid and compelling book, Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide.1 Kristof and WuDunn are the first married couple to win a Pulitzer Prize in journalism. Kristof, a columnist for the New York Times, and Sheryl WuDunn, a former editor and bureau chief for the Times, know, they know stories. ![]() ![]() And it doesn’t take long to find yourself pulled back into the Mistborn world, and literally watch as a civilization with a type of magic finds itself developing technology independent from, and dependent on that magic. I’m sort of glad I did, because I was able to dedicate two separate reading sessions to this book (rather than the alternate 87) and really enjoy this book. I genuinely love Brandon Sanderson’s writing – especially his Mistborn books, but for some reason I just took my time and waited. ![]() It took me a little while to pick up The Bands of Mourning due to there being other books and no time. Despite appearances, The Alloy of Law is actually a standalone novel, followed by a trilogy, and so I was quietly surprised when I turned the page to the Postscript in The Bands of Mourning and found myself reading of not only a third and final book in this series, but a digital novella available online to fill in a few of the gaps created by this latest Mistborn book. ![]() Suffice it to say, I forgot that The Bands of Mourning was actually the second book in a trilogy, and not the third. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() He also brilliantly populates his history with identifiable individuals whose lives illustrate with great immediacy the wider developments he is describing. Part of the argument of Abulafia's book is that the great port cities - Alexandria, Trieste and Salonika and many others - prospered in part because of their ability to allow many different people, religions and identities to co-exist within sometimes very confined spaces. David Abulafia's "The Great Sea" is the first complete history of the Mediterranean from the erection of the mysterious temples on Malta around 3500 BC to the recent reinvention of the Mediterranean's shores as a tourist destination. From the time of historical Troy until the middle of the nineteenth century, human activity here decisively shaped much of the course of world history. For over three thousand years, the Mediterranean Sea has been one of the great centres of world civilisation. ![]() This title is "Sunday Times" History Book of the Year.

But short of compromising on his overarching goal Metternich aimed to accommodate liberalism and nationalism as much as possible. He was, as Henry Kissinger has observed, the father of realpolitik. That often required him, as the Austrian Empire's foreign minister and chancellor, to back authority. Historians treat him as the archenemy of progress, a ruthless aristocrat who used his power as the dominant European statesman of the first half of the nineteenth century to stifle liberalism, suppress national independence. He reveals Metternich as more modern and his career much more forward-looking than we have ever recognized.Ĭlemens von Metternich emerged from the horrors of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic wars, Siemann shows, committed above all to the preservation of peace. Metternich has a reputation as the epitome of reactionary conservatism. Wolfram Siemann paints a fundamentally new image of the man who shaped Europe for over four decades. Historians treat him as the archenemy of progress, a ruthless aristocrat who used his power as the dominant European statesman of the first half of the nineteenth century to stifle liberalism, suppress national independence, and oppose the dreams of social change that inspired the revolutionaries of 1848.
