Описание: Following the death of his father, instead of being overwhelmed by depression, Scot Whitlock found himself, 'Filled with a powerful purpose: to travel the Camino de Santiago, as a simple mark of respect.' This book chronicles his travels along this, the main pilgrims' walking route in Spain. Rather than walking, he cycles and regards the experience as a personal epiphany, even including the careful selection of a particularly punishing bike. (This is, after all, a pilgrimage ) With detailed descriptions of the hardships and joys of cycling across Spain, his journal is entertaining and informative, telling us of the feelings and energies that come with different locations, the emotional changes in himself and his grief as he follows the pilgrims' route, and the wonderful places he discovers along the way, both geographically and spiritually, as he begins to come to terms with his loss and even makes friends with his bike.
Описание: Subtle scars disappearing up a shirt sleeve, unexplained bruises, burn marks. As many as one out of every four young people engage in non-suicidal self-injury, defined as the deliberate destruction of body tissue without suicidal intent. Parents who uncover this alarming behavior are gripped by uncertainty and flooded with questions--why is my child doing this? Is this a suicide attempt? What did I do wrong? What can I do to stop it? And yet basic educational resources for parents with self-injuring children are sorely lacking. Healing Self-Injury provides desperately-needed guidance to parents and others who love a young person struggling with self-injury. First and foremost, adolescent psychologists Janis Whitlock and Elizabeth Lloyd-Richardson believe that parents must appreciate how important their role is in their child's recovery; there is a lot that parents can do to support their self-injuring children. This book offers strategies for identifying and alleviating sources of distress in children's lives, improving family communication (particularly around emotions), and seeking professional help. Importantly, it also provides compassionate advice to parents with personal challenges of their own, explaining how these can impact the entire family. The book will help parents partner with their children to identify, build, and use skills that will assist them in recovering from self-injury. Vivid anecdotes drawn from the authors' extensive in-depth interviews with real families in recovery from self-injury put a human face on what for many families is a distressing and often isolating experience. Healing Self-Injury is a must-have for parents who want to assist in their child's recovery, as well as for anyone who lives with, works with, or cares about self-injuring youth and their families.

Описание:
Approximately 10,000 "War Crimes Trials" have been held since 1945. Trials of Japanese military personnel ended in 1949, yet "war crimes trials" of Germans and Eastern Europeans continue to date.
Almost invariably, the charge is "violation of the laws and customs of war," derived, in turn, from international conventions signed at the Hague in 1899 and 1907.
That these trials have little or no basis in law is clear from the wording of the treaties which are said to have been violated.
The illegalities of "war crimes" proceedings include the admissi-bility of oral and written hearsay; the introduction of the concept of "conspiracy" into international law (unknown prior to 1945); the total lack of any pre-trial inquest or forensic evidence; and trial before a court itself composed of actual "war criminals."
To quote the writings of Telford Taylor:
"The issues surrounding the war crimes trials are numerous and complex; discussion and criticism of what was done should be welcomed by all who hope for a continuing development of inter-national law... but what should have been done instead is a problem generally ignored by those who condemn what was done in fact.99
The alternative is a fair trial before an impartial court under existing procedures and proper rules of evidence.

Описание: Alastair Henry and Candas Whitlock went to Alert Bay on Cormorant Island (between North Vancouver Island and the B.C. mainland) in February 2016 on a four month volunteering placement with Cuso International. Alastair was the on-site business coach for ten aspiring entrepreneurs. Island life, the ocean and a different climate were initially novel and interesting to this couple from S.W. Ontario. They gained understanding and respect for the 'Namgis First Nations culture and their traditions, but what impacted them the most was what they learned about the social injustices inflicted on all First Nations people by past governments and how the effects of those events play out today. They felt compelled to share their enlightenment with other non-aboriginal people by writing "Tides of Change," and in so doing, help support Reconciliation Canada achieve its goals: - To create a greater awareness among non-aboriginal people of the social injustices inflicted on First Nations people by the Canadian government of the day and the multi generational harm it did. - To better educate the general public of the healing process First Nations people are struggling with today so that they have a greater empathy for them, and the realization that this is a Canadian problem, not just a First Nations one. We are one. - To encourage parents to educate their children about the historical facts of what transpired and why the First Nations people are struggling with healing today so that they can grow up better informed and have a more compassionate and empathetic understanding of tour First Nations people.

Описание:
What REALLY happened at the Nuremberg War Tribunals?
This book contains shocking evidence that they were little more than lynch-mob proceedings, resulting in the Most Corrupt Trial of The Twentieth Century
It shows that the trials broke every legal precedent and procedure of evidence in the book. Evidence Was Tainted from The Beginning, The Verdicts Planned and Agreed Upon from The Outset. No Cross Examinations of Prosecution Witnesses, Their Presence in Court Not Even Required.
Blatantly Fraudulent Documents Were Accepted as Fact Over and Over Again. Impossible Events Were Accepted Into 'Evidence' With No Scientific Proof of Opportunity for Rebuttal.
Uninformed people consider the "Nuremberg War Crimes Trials" as the ultimate proof of the guilt of the German leadership before and during World War II. The transcripts of the proceedings, however, tell an entirely different story.
What You Will Read In This Book Is So Astonishing that you may find yourself reaching the Same Conclusion As Have So Many Others When Shown The Truth....
NOT guilty at Nuremberg...
