The American prison system has gone off the rails. Originally started in the country by King George III, the pre-American Revolutionary prisons were inhuman and savage petri houses of filth and diseases. The first post-Revolutionary prisons were not much better; in fact, the Civil War prisons rivaled the inhumanity of pre-Revolutionary ones. It was not until Reconstruction when the stark realities of American prisons were viewed by highly educated overseers as shameful and repugnant. A new language referenced the need to view conceptually a new type of prison: a reformative one that would prepare the prisoner for post-incarceration life. However, throughout the near century and a half, the politicians in charge of legislation have done little to change the culture of prison warehousing.
This story will concentrate on the facts that keep the unfortunate in miserable sardine cans without any provable consideration for change. Our politicians are the nation's lifeline for change, and yet many should be switching places with the incarcerated. If there is ever going to be a sincere change in the warehousing of human beings, there has to be a will for compassion and the election of politicians who do more than mouth false promises.
A country is only as good as its least fortunate. Providing an atmosphere to allow for self-actualization rather than big government handouts starts
with health, the family unit, and especially education. Recidivism is the default issue. Only a minority get out with a sense of pride and the ability to
reconstruct a decent life, and there is often a latent prejudice against former prisoners. Finding a "second chance" vocational opportunity or an avenue
back to school for youth is an absolute must. Prisons provide training in some areas, but nowhere meeting the needs of the large prison populations. This a generational issue which has never been fully remediated. The book takes on the central issues underpinning the ever continuum of prison expansion.

Описание:
Henry Maurice Goldman grew up in a blue collar section of Boston, but he rose through Ivy League institutions to become one of the world's greatest dental educators.
In this biography, Robert Allyn Goldman pays tribute to his contributions in this eye-opening biography that will fascinate dentists, educators, history buffs, and anyone with questions about how their individual dental needs might relate to the profession in general.
As Goldman's career blossomed, he realized how uninformed people were about their own dental health, and when he left The Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Washington, D.C. after World War II, he devoted himself to periodontics, which was at the grassroots of his training and practice in oral pathology.
Eventually he discovered that to accomplish his goals, he needed to tackle a bigger problem: the lack of training of dentists and poor dental health care delivery. That led him to devote all his energy to starting a school dedicated to dental specialization.
By delving into Goldman's life story, you'll get a firsthand look at the problems he solved and gain a deeper appreciation for dentistry and dental health.

Harmless crush...Right You'll get over it...Whatever You haven't met the right girl yet... Bull***t.
I knew Carrie was the one, despite my friends' attempts to convince me otherwise. The heated kiss we shared that night before I left for college sealed the deal. There was just one problem. She wouldn't touch me with a ten-foot pole. "I've known you since you were twelve," was her first excuse. "Your family wouldn't approve of this," was her second. By the time I reached my thirties, when I was finished with all of her denials, her final excuse, turned my world upside down. "I'm not good enough for you," she had said, her words breaking my heart. I'm done taking no for an answer. I'll prove her wrong, put her back together if I have to. What's the famous saying? Age is just a number, and hers has finally come up.

Описание:
For years I was lost, bitter, angry at the way my life turned out. I fought hard to find my way back to happiness, and I was almost there. I just needed one push, and it came in the form of Cole Alexander. For one night, we connected in a way neither of us anticipated--an attraction I wasn't ready for. I did what any normal woman on the cusp of the next stage in her life would do. I left, never expecting to see him again.
I've never been so wrong in my entire life. Falls Village, Maine was a place meant for second chances, and it became my primary destination, the place that would heal me. Little did I know I'd find the man who had a small part in changing my world mere miles away.

Описание: This book is both an exploration of Judith Shklar`s liberalism of fear and an examination of the proper role and limits of political theory. It advances a novel interpretation of Shklar`s mature work, one that emphasises its value monism. It also defends a value pluralist approach to resolving moral conflicts and thinking about freedom. -- .

Описание:
Cathleen Allyn Conway's American Ing nue is a pamphlet of found poems cut from Bret Easton Ellis novels and Francine Pascal's Sweet Valley High series. Conway transforms her unlikely source material into giddy, irreverent and violent episodes which centre around a 'damaged party girl' wandering 'the wreckage of New York'. American Ing nue is a dazzling and delightful pamphlet which takes the found poem to new, vertiginous heights.
