Product: Bad News: Why We Fall for Fake News
Description: From the bestselling author of Suspicious Minds
There was a time when the news came once a day, in the morning newspaper. A time when the only way to see what was happening around the world was to catch the latest newsreel at the movies.
Times have changed. Now we're inundated. The news is no longer confined to a radio in the living room, or to a nightly half-hour timeslot on the television. Pundits pontificate on news networks 24 hours a day. We carry
the news with us, getting instant alerts about events around the globe. Yet despite this unprecedented abundance of information, it seems increasingly difficult to know what's true and what's not.
In Bad News, Rob Brotherton delves into the psychology of news, reviewing how the latest research can help navigate this supposedly post-truth world. Which buzzwords describe psychological reality, and which are empty sound bites? How much of this news is unprecedented, and how much is business as usual? Are we doomed to fall for fake news, or is fake news ... fake news?
There has been considerable psychological research into the fundamental questions underlying this phenomenon. How do we form our beliefs, and why do we end up believing things that are wrong? How much information can we possibly process, and what is the internet doing to our attention spans? Ultimately this book answers one of the greatest questions of the age: how can we all be smarter consumers of news?

Product: Pay Attention: 101 Ways To Tame The Narrative Machine, Be A Smarter Media Consumer And Stop Outsourcing Your Thinking
Description: “Peter brilliantly shows that the key to better thinking and decision making in this day and age is to understand not the content, but the narrative.”- Andrew Stotz, Ph.D., CFA, CEO, A. Stotz Investment Research“…learn how to weed out fact from fiction with Peter’s book by your side.” - Samir Madani, Tanker Trackers“…it is imperative for consumers to understand the underlying factors that shape the narrative.”- Nathaniel E. Baker, Contrarian Investor PodcastThe disinformation age is drowning us in a deluge of data, ‘facts’ and opinion. It consumes our attention. The result of this deficit of attention is the rise of fake news, media bias and a polarised society. Our capacity to reason what is happening in the world and to make better decisions has become incapacitated amid the cacophony. Instead, we outsource our thinking to others without even realising it. It may feel like we are making our own well informed decisions. More often than not that is an illusion driven by the narrative machine.Economist Peter Sainsbury unravels the truth about the power of media narratives, the breakdown in trust and why our attention has been diverted from what matters. Pay Attention offers 101 ways in which each of us can fight back.Peter Sainsbury is also the author of Commodities: 50 Things You Really Need To Know, Crude Forecasts: Predictions, Pundits & Profits In The Commodity Casino and The Winning Formula: Betting on F1.You can follow Peter Sainsbury on Twitter @petersainsbury7

Product: American Manifesto: Saving Democracy from Villains, Vandals, and Ourselves
Description: As is often observed, Trump is a symptom of a virus that has been incubating for at least 50 years. But not often observed is where the virus is imbedded: in the psychic core of our identity. In American Manifesto: Saving Democracy from Villains, Vandals, and Ourselves, Bob Garfield examines the tragic confluence of the American preoccupation with identity and the catastrophic disintegration of the mass media. Garfield investigates how we've gotten to this moment when our identity is threatened by both the left and the right, when e pluribus unum is no longer a source of national pride, and why, when looking through this lens of identity, the rise of Trumpism is no surprise. Overlaying that crisis is the rise of the Facebook-Google duopoly and the filter-bubble archipelago where identity is tribal and immutable.

But fear not! WNYC's On the Media cohost Garfield has ideas about how we may counter the forces of fragmentation - the manifesto itself: six steps for citizens to take to reassemble our fractured society. A quick, fascinating listen, American Manifesto offers not only a vision "of a country in extremis", but also a plan for how to address the ways in which our democracy is imperiled. American Manifesto is a call to action, unmistakable and provocative.

Product: Google and Democracy: Politics and the Power of the Internet
Description: For the first time in human history, access to information on almost any topic is accessible through the Internet. A powerful extraction system is needed to disseminate this knowledge, which for most users is Google. Google Search is an extremely powerful and important component to American political life in the twenty-first century, yet its influence is poorly researched or understood.

Sean Richey and J. Benjamin Taylor explore for the first time the influence of Google on American politics, specifically on direct democracy. Using original experiments and nationally representative cross-sectional data, Richey and Taylor show how Google Search returns quality information, that users click on quality information, and gain political knowledge and other contingent benefits. Additionally, they correlate Google usage with real-world voting behavior on direct democracy.

Building a theory of Google Search use for ballot measures, Google and Democracy is an original addition to the literature on the direct democracy, Internet politics, and information technology. An indispensable read to all those wishing to gain new insights on how the Internet has the power to be a normatively valuable resource for citizens.

Product: AquaCity XINYOU Corner Filter Aquarium Fish Tank Internal Air Driven Filter with Media XY-2008
Brand: Aquapapa
Color: Original version
Description: How Does It Work? This filter uses bubbles of air from an external air pump, or an integral water pump to draw water through filter. As water is drawn out through the lift tube or pump, it is replaced by water entering the filter. The top layer of white filter pad provides a mechanical filtration. The black bio-sponge in the 2nd layer and ceramic rings with gravel provides biochemical filtration. They support the colonization of bacteria. The bacteria help to break down harmful waste (ammonia and nitrite). What Maintenance Does It Require? The sponge will need to be rinsed every time it becomes dirty, about once every 2 to 4 weeks. It's helpful to reserve the beneficial bacteria by washing the sponge gently with water from the fish tank instead of tap water. Dimension: 2.75"(L) x 3.15"(W) x 7.0"(H)
Supply the water with much needed oxygen, For tank size up to 5-20 Gallons
