Rocky still resonates with people around the world. These are their stories.
This story is about how on a hope a mother gets a horse for a young man with autism. Drawn into the emotional nature of horses, a life changing bond forms between this young man and both the best and the worst horse he could learn from. The stubborn and defiant will of Rocky challenges him to understand the body language through which horses communicate their emotions. As these two minds learn from their struggle together, competing on who will be the leader on the trail, an autistic mind experiences a revolutionary change in which he discovers he can read the body language and learn how to understand the emotional nature of this majestic creature. Using information that he could not previously see, he quickly grows into an excelling rider exploring nature with this horse that constantly challenges him for position as leader. Sadly, Rocky learns as much from this young man as he learns from Rocky. After a year, Rocky is no longer safe to ride, and this young man must give up the bond he has created. Heartbroken, he searches for a new horse with all the good but none of the bad of the first. He finds this horse as he discovers a path to veterinary school and continues his discovery of the emotions communicated through body language, but not just those of horses but of the people around him. Struggling to understand the nuances of communication used by the students at his community college, the struggle to connect with others continues at a university as his young horse learns and grows from the adventures they experience together. Through an ambition to learn the emotions that governed Rocky, an autistic mind learns how to see the passion, the desires, the fears, the unwillingness to stop fighting one another and through it, learns to see himself. The self-discovery catalyzes revolutionary changes that carry him through struggles, injuries, rejection, heartbreaks, disappointments, loneliness, through the exceedingly difficult accomplishment of gaining entry into a veterinary college and into a world of emotion and compassion.
In 1912, Mary Vaux, a botanist, glaciologist, painter, and photographer, wrote about her mountain adventures. This Wild Spirit explores a sampling of women's creative responses--in fiction and travel writing, photographs and paintings, embroidery and beadwork, letters and diaries, poetry and posters--to their experiences in the Rocky Mountains of Canada.
Brunelleschi’s basilica of Santo Spirito in Florence was not only a product of creative genius, but also of communal bureaucracy, socio-economic traditions, human and financial resources, factionalism, and rivalry. This complex network of forces behind the monument serves as testimony to the determination and capacity of Renaissance Florentines to actualize the creative ideas of the extraordinary artists and architects who were transforming the profile of the city. Moreover, it reveals that the labor, spirit, and energy of those human beings who were building Renaissance Florence were just as important to its manufacture as the brick, stone and wood used to build it. By investigating those aspects that defined the building tradition of the Renaissance – the architect, the Opera (building committee), the quartiere (neighborhood), the cantiere (worksite and workforce) – we discover that behind a great monument lies a monumental account of collective human achievement.
The Banff–Bow Valley in western Alberta is the heart of spiritual and economic life for the Nakoda peoples. While they were displaced from the region by the reserve system and the creation of Canada's first national park, in the twentieth century the Nakoda reasserted their presence in the valley through involvement in regional tourism economies and the Banff Indian Days sporting festivals. Drawing on extensive oral testimony from the Nakoda, supplemented by detailed analysis of archival and visual records, Spirits of the Rockies is a sophisticated account of the situation that these Indigenous communities encountered when they were denied access to the Banff National Park. Courtney W. Mason examines the power relations and racial discourses that dominated the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rocky Mountains and shows how the Nakoda strategically used the Banff Indian Days festivals to gain access to sacred lands and respond to colonial policies designed to repress their cultures.

We all have freedom of choice. Nobody is telling you what you must do. It is your conscience that you have to live with! As we look around us these days, do you notice how the world has changed? We went from better to worse, worse to horrific and we're heading from horrific to dread? We can have the power to control situations, only if we raise the levels of our own consciousness and get back to basics. Remember when we wore white shirts and black ties for assembly? When your parents told you to do something you didn't ask why, you just did it? When No One is Looking is about bringing "Integrity" back into our lives and being more conscious of decisions we make and actions we take which can make this a better world. "The most influential tool we have in your entire arsenal is your integrity." - Zig Zigler "Only a person with integrity has the ability to command a long time respect and admiration, young or old, rich or poor. It doesn't matter what you have now, you can live with integrity and elegance and you can take utmost pride in that. That is because integrity is something you decide to have. It is a principle you chose to live by. Each of us will someday, be judged by our standard of life, not by the standard of living; by our measure of giving, not by our measure of wealth; by our simple goodness, not by seeming greatness" - William Arthur Ward
