Compassion is often seen as a distant, altruistic ideal cultivated by saints, or as an unrealistic response of the naively kind-hearted. But by seeing compassion in this way, we lose out on experiencing the transformative potential of one of our most neglected inner resources.
Clinical psychologist and Tibetan Buddhist practitioner Dr. Lorne Ladner rescues compassion from this marginalized view, showing how its practical application in our life can be a powerful force in achieving happiness. Ladner provides a clear explanation of what healthy compassion is and why it is so essential to our lives. Combining the wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism and Western psychology, The Lost Art of Compassion presents clear, effective practices for cultivating compassion in daily living. Lorne Ladner, Ph.D. is a clinical psychologist in private practice in Washington DC, and an adjunct faculty member in the counseling program at Argosy University. He began studying Buddhist meditation 15 years ago and is a longtime student of Lama Zopa Rinpoche. Dr. Ladner is currently Center Director of the Guhyasamaja Buddhist Center in Northern Virginia, where he regularly teaches classes, runs workshops, and leads meditation retreats. "A helpful, kindhearted, articulate teaching of the way of compassion. Buddhism and Western psychology meet here wisely and beautifully." - Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart
--Annie Dillard, author of Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
What is the American rule of law? Is it a paradigm case of the strong constitutionalism concept of the rule of law or has it fallen short of its rule of law ambitions?
This open access book traces the promise and paradox of the American rule of law in three interwoven ways. It focuses on explicating the ideals of the American rule of law by asking: how do we interpret its history and the goals of its constitutional framers to see the rule of law ambitions its foundational institutions express? It considers those constitutional institutions as inextricable from the problem of race in the United States and the tensions between the rule of law as a protector of property rights and the rule of law as a restrictor on arbitrary power and a guarantor of legal equality. In that context, it explores the distinctive role of Black liberation movements in developing the American rule of law. Finally, it considers the extent to which the American rule of law is compromised at its frontiers, and the extent that those compromises undermine legal protections Americans enjoy in the interior. It asks how America reflects the legal contradictions of capitalism and empire outside its borders, and the impact of those contradictions on its external goals.

Описание:
Maurice the Moose is lonely. So lonely, in fact, that when one day, he is attracted to the call of what he thinks is another moose. He runs far and wide to respond to the call only to find that instead of another friendly moose, it is the call of a moose hunter that has attracted him. Luckily, another moose has answered the call and scares away the hunter. And, most importantly, the Maurice makes a new friend. Maurice the Moose is about making friends in unlikely circumstances as well as the strong bond that is formed when thrown together.
Lorne Elliott has performed from Newfoundland to New York City, from Los Angeles to Australia and points in between. Lorne started performing in 1974 as a folk musician in East Coast Canada. At the same time he kept writing fiction as well as songs, monologues and one-liners. The outcome of such a training is a very special show of comedy and music, totally original, entertaining, foolish and uplifting. Along with his unique performance style it is the timelessness of his material, joined with keen observations on today's trends that make Lorne Elliott's work so special. He is the author of Beach Reading and a novella The Fixer Upper. This is his first picture book.

Описание:
Professor Pippy P. Poopypants may be the greatest scientific genius the world has ever known. Unfortunately, he has such a silly name that nobody takes him seriously! He`s been laughed out of every major university in the world.
In fact, the only place that`ll hire him is Jerome Horwitz Elementary School. Hopefully, nobody at the school will laugh at his name (or make a comic book about him)....
...Because if just one more person makes fun of Poopypants, it might just drive him OFF THE DEEP END!
Needless to say, George and Harold poo-poo Poopypants`s pride -- practically pulverizing it to pieces -- and, hence, Poopypants is preparing to pounce!
Step up to witness a brief encounter of the cottony kind. This looks exactly like a job for The Amazing CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS!
Jorge y Berto no son malos chicos. Lo que pasa es que les gusta animar las cosas de vez en cuando. Asi, sin proponerselo, estan a punto de hacer que el profesor Pipicaca, un cientifico enloquecido y sin escrupulos que se encuentra a bordo de un robot gigantesco, se apodere del planeta entero. Quien desbaratara los perversos planes de Pipicaca? Un nuevo trabajo para el Capitan Calzoncillos!

Описание:
A victim without a name. A crime the police can't find.
Corporal Faryn Steel's first job is to find her victim's identity. A woman's body in a field next to a 12 gauge promises to be an open and shut case. But every clue leads to a new mystery.
From the murder to rapes to home invasions and missing shoes . . . Nothing leads to the victim's identity. Without that one basic fact, Faryn may not have a case.
At the same time, Faryn has to deal with her own stalker, plus an ex boyfriend, people sticking their noses into her alternative lifestyle, and her longing desire to soak in a hot bath eating spicy chicken wings.
