Описание: Crossing years and continents, the harrowing story of the road to reunion for two Syrian brothers who--despite a homeland at war and an ocean between them--hold fast to the bonds of family.

Riveting . . . a resplendent love letter to an obliterated city.--The New York Times

The Road from Raqqa had me gripped from the first page. I couldnt put it down.--Christy Lefteri, author of The Beekeeper of Aleppo

The Alkasem brothers, Riyad and Bashar, spend their childhood in Raqqa, the Syrian city that would later become the capital of ISIS. As a teenager in the 1980s, Riyad witnesses the devastating aftermath of the Hama massacre--an atrocity that the Hafez al-Assad regime commits upon its people. Wanting to expand his notion of government and justice, Riyad moves to the United States to study law, but his plans are derailed and he eventually falls in love with a Southern belle. They move to a suburb of Nashville, Tennessee, where they raise two sons and where Riyad opens a restaurant--Café Rakka--cooking the food his grandmother used to make. But he finds himself confronted with the darker side of American freedoms: the hardscrabble life of a newly arrived immigrant, enduring bigotry, poverty, and loneliness. Years pass, and at the height of Syrias civil war, fearing for his familys safety halfway across the world, he risks his own life by making a dangerous trip back to Raqqa.

Bashar, meanwhile, in Syria. After his older brother moves to America, Bashar embarks on a brilliant legal career under the same corrupt Assad government that Riyad despises. Reluctant to abandon his comfortable (albeit conflicted) life, he fails to perceive the threat of ISIS until its nearly too late.

The Road from Raqqa
brings us into the lives of two brothers bound by their love for each other and for the war-ravaged city they call home. Its about a family caught in the middle of the most significant global events of the new millennium, Americas fraught but hopeful relationship to its own immigrants, and the toll of dictatorship and war on everyday families. Its a book that captures all the desperation, tenacity, and hope that come with the revelation that we can find home in one another when the lands of our forefathers fail us.

Описание:

An overwhelming sense of awe, gratitude, and clarity suddenly hit me.

How did I get here?

I'm sitting in first class on my way to St. Maarten to join my 66-foot sailboat, crew, and friends to begin a sailing saga that will take me across 15,000 miles of sea to Australia during the next 18 months. A dream come true.

Retired at age 54, with a lakefront home at Lake Tahoe and building a grand home on 40 acres a mile from the ocean near the hamlet of Avila Beach, California, I wonder: How could one be more blessed?

One who grew up without a father's presence, with an unstable, promiscuous mother; one who endured horrific challenges, suicide, gangs, and expulsion from high school. One who was forced to attend a trade school, unable to walk for two years as a teenager due to a motorcycle accident, and whose highest goal was to sim- ply get out of school with a job that paid enough for a car and an apartment.

How I got here--and the insights and lessons learned along the way--are the story of my life.

As I look back over the challenges and traumas, what stands out is how every aspect of my life was and continues to be connected in ways that gradually lift and support me on my amazing, blessed journey. I can see how the love and care of so many who touched my life made a huge, positive difference, and how I inter- nalized and applied their wisdom and guidance.

I hope the lessons in my story can make a difference for you. --Mike Ritter

Описание: Recent years have witnessed widespread changes in state voting and registration laws. These include same day registration, automatic voter registration, early voting, mail voting, and no-excuse absentee voting where people mail in their ballots. Most research on these voting reforms has
downplayed their effects, showing that they generally benefit educated, older, and more affluent people. This book shows the positive effects that these reforms have on overall voter turnout, and among voters of disadvantaged groups. Specifically, it emphasizes the ways that state governments are
making it easier to participate in elections in an effort to strengthen democratic government.

In Accessible Elections, Michael Ritter and Caroline J. Tolbert explore the wide variation from state to state in convenience voting methods and provide new empirical analysis of the beneficial effects of these policies, not only in boosting participation rates overall, but in increasing voter
turnout for disadvantaged groups. The authors measure both convenience methods and implementation of the laws, and explore how elections are conducted across the fifty states, where average turnout has varied more than 25 percentage points over the past four decades. The authors also draw on
national voter files with millions of cases and vote histories of the same individuals over time in order to show the real effects of election reform and to make a case for how state governments can modernize their electoral practices, increase voter turnout, and make the experience of voting more
accessible and equitable. Ritter and Tolbert assert that in the wake of covid-19 and efforts to maintain social distancing, early voting and absentee/mail voting are of particular importance to avoid election-day crowds and ensure equitable elections in states with large populations. With important
implications for the 2020 general election and beyond, Accessible Elections underscores how state governments can modernize their electoral procedures to increase voter turnout, address inequalities, and influence campaign and party mobilization strategies.

Описание:

Understanding your mood and the way you think is not easy. As you analyze a particular situation where you have been feeling those negative emotions, you have to start with a serious self-analysis. Your goal is to figure out exactly what kind of thoughts and feelings you have lying just underneath the surface.


It is one thing to know what your problem is and another thing entirely to identify what is triggering the symptoms you're experiencing. Finding these triggers can be quite complicated as it is most likely due to a combination of factors including environmental, physical, and genetics. Even so, there are some events or personal experiences that may trigger certain forms of anxiety or, at the very least, make them much worse.


So, whether you're dealing with symptoms of anxiety, depression, or stress as a result of a genetic factor that you have no control over, the condition can actually deepen as a result of certain events or experiences you are having in your day-to-day life.


In "Get Out Of Your Head" You Will Learn:

✓ What Changes Thought Patterns and Belief Systems

✓ How it Works on Anxiety and Depression

✓ How CBT Helps With Problem-Solving In Depression or Anxiety

✓ Common Causes of Mood Disorders

✓ Understanding Your Moods and the Way You Think

✓ How to Diagnose Your Negative Thought Patterns

✓ Identifying Your Triggers for Anxiety and Stress

✓ How To Counter Negative and Angry Feelings

✓ Deal With Feelings of Guilt

✓ What Does Good Self-Care Look Like?
