Discover a profound account of resilience in "Living With Earthquakes and Their Aftermath," authored by Rosie Belton. This captivating paperback is essential for anyone impacted by natural disasters, particularly the earthquakes that struck Canterbury. With dimensions of 150 x 208 mm and 156 pages of insightful reflections, this book is not just a narrative; it's a lifeline for those navigating life after seismic upheaval. Belton's unique diary-style writing resonates deeply, capturing real-time experiences and emotional truths from the devastating quakes that began in 2010 and continued for years.

As Michael Palin eloquently remarked, it helps us comprehend the incomprehensible, blending bewilderment, hope, and desperation into a compelling read.

“I am reminded of what Harold Nicholson wrote about London during the Blitz: the same uncertainty as to what horror was going to happen next…” – Michael Palin Always an acute observer of people and the environment, in this new book Rosie Belton once again uses her diarist style to capture with intimacy and immediacy the events as they happened around her, in this case the earthquakes experienced by the people of Canterbury. Nothing could have prepared her, she says, for the severity of the quakes, starting with the first one in 2010, and then the ongoing disruption over the next six years: the grinding reality of living through so many months of shaking and the after-effects. Like many creative individuals, Rosie found that writing about those terrible events as they unfolded developed into a coping mechanism. And now, the result of her careful record-keeping and reflections can be read and appreciated by so many others whose lives have been affected by similarly large- scale natural disasters. It also makes excellent reading for anyone with an interest in knowing more about what it can be like to live in a seismically active country. Dedicated to all who face and survive unwanted change, Living with Earthquakes helps us, as well-known author and actor Michael Palin said after reading Rosie’s writings, ‘to comprehend the incomprehensible, conveying the mixture of bewilderment, hope and desperation very effectively’.

Must for laptop users
Set name: Space Gray
I’ve been using this hub with my MacBook Pro, and it’s been a game changer. It has all the ports I need in one compact device, which makes it incredibly convenient whether I’m working at my desk or on the go. Everything connects smoothly and performs reliably with no lag, no hassle. I connect second monitors mainly as well as external keyboards and mice. The size is perfect too, it’s small enough to toss in a bag or even a pocket without adding annoying bulk. If you’re looking for a simple, efficient way to expand your MacBook’s connectivity, this hub does exactly what you want without overcomplicating things. So far the durability seems excellent as I have dropped it off the desk several times.

It does what it's supposed to do, except give fluid full screen video.
Set name: Dual HDMI Adapter
It works on a MacBook Neo, but temper your expectations. If you watch a YouTube video with the 3rd screen (and probably 4th screen as well), it's not as fluid as watching it on a 2nd monitor connected to back USB-C port (or via the Neo's internal monitor). This device and the USB-C 2.0 bus are simply not capable of giving you that kind of performance. Also, will need to download and install the driver from the manufacturer's website and allow 2 different permissions for screensharing and to use an updated drive in System Settings.
