Book Description
Creating this book wasn't in our plan, and staying two months in red light districts was definitely never part of our plan. However, when you stare reality in the face, or in our case, wake up next door to it; you have the chance to change your plans. We didn't do anything drastic or noteworthy, we never busted down a brothel door or planted secret cameras, in fact our response was shockingly small- we simply decided to make ourselves available. We shrank down our judgments and walked up willing to be fully there, to listen, to speak, and to understand. The voices of the women sounded surprisingly like our sisters and mothers, the voices of the men like our fathers and brothers. We make this book for ourselves, in order to remember these people and to remember the face of our God whom we saw in the midst of it. These pages of art are our reactions to the darkness and the heaviness, as well as the resounding joy and forgiveness that live in these two countries.

The Real Book - Volume II (Songbook)
Author: Hal Leonard Corp.
Publisher: Hal Leonard Corporation
ISBN: 1458435016
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 519
Book Description
(Fake Book). The Real Books are the best-selling jazz books of all time. Since the 1970s, musicians have trusted these volumes to get them through every gig, night after night. The problem is that the books were illegally produced and distributed without any copyrights or royalties paid to the master composers who created these musical canons. Hal Leonard is very proud to present the first legitimate and legal editions of these books ever produced. You won't even notice the difference...the covers look the same, the engravings look the same, the songlist is nearly identical, and the price remains fair even on a musician's salary! But every conscientious musician will appreciate that these books are now produced legally and ethically, benefitting the songwriters that we owe for some of the greatest music ever written! 400 songs, including: Air Mail Special * Birdland * Bye Bye Blackbird * Caravan * Doxy * Fly Me to the Moon (In Other Words) * Georgia * Girl Talk * In Walked Bud * I Remember You * I Thought About You * The Jody Grind * Just the Way You Are * Killer Joe * Little Sunflower * Mercy, Mercy, Mercy * Moanin' * The Nearness of You * Now's the Time * Old Devil Moon * Phase Dance * St. Thomas * Speak Low * Stardust * Tangerine * Tenor Madness * Watch What Happens * Whisper Not * Willow Weep for Me * Yardbird Suite * and more.

The True Test Is When No One Sees
Author: Robert N. D’Ambola
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1664139826
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
Everyone will hate this book. It is based on the course, Ethics for Police Recruits, that Robert D’Ambola has instructed for over 20 years. He has presented this class to almost 5,000 Police Officers. Soon-to-be Police Officers will hate this book because it should scare the hell out of them and make them question why they want to do this job. Veteran cops will hate it because it will remind them of the shit they had to put up with every day, and the challenges they face, while getting no appreciation or recognition. The bosses will hate it because they are the bosses and responsible for a lot of the shit. The politicians will hate it because they make the rules about things they have no clue about and the police ultimately get blamed for. The media will hate it because of their skewed portrayal of the real American heroes of society, to make them out to be the bad guys when they are not. And then there are times the police turn out to be exactly that – the bad guys. The Police Training Commission will hate this book because it exposes the fact that they are running a dog and pony show to make the politicians and insurance companies happy instead of building a truly professional, intelligent, capable, police officer who can deal with the current rigors of the job, while protecting themselve at the same time. The public will absolutely hate this book because they get what they pay for, they have no idea what they are paying for, and they don’t know what they truly want from the police. Do they want a warrior or a guardian? The book was not designed to slam any specific group but should be used to improve the entire Law Enforcement instructional model. It is to learn from history so we do not repeat the same mistakes, and continue to pass on The Stupid Gene to the next generation of Law Enforcement Officers. In these turbulent times, Law Enforcement needs to drastically improve in all areas before the entire system as we know it is abolished. This is a raw subject so I have injected my own twisted humor to make it a bit more palatable. Maybe you can handle the truth. Read on. Feel free to hate this book as long as you learn something from it.

No Bad Parts
Author: Richard Schwartz, Ph.D.
Publisher: Sounds True
ISBN: 168364669X
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
Discover an empowering new way of understanding your multifaceted mind—and healing the many parts that make you who you are. Is there just one “you”? We’ve been taught to believe we have a single identity, and to feel fear or shame when we can’t control the inner voices that don’t match the ideal of who we think we should be. Yet Dr. Richard Schwartz’s research now challenges this “mono-mind” theory. “All of us are born with many sub-minds—or parts,” says Dr. Schwartz. “These parts are not imaginary or symbolic. They are individuals who exist as an internal family within us—and the key to health and happiness is to honor, understand, and love every part.” Dr. Schwartz’s Internal Family Systems (IFS) model has been transforming psychology for decades. With No Bad Parts, you’ll learn why IFS has been so effective in areas such as trauma recovery, addiction therapy, and depression treatment—and how this new understanding of consciousness has the potential to radically change our lives. Here you’ll explore: • The IFS revolution—how honoring and communicating with our parts changes our approach to mental wellness • Overturning the cultural, scientific, and spiritual assumptions that reinforce an outdated mono-mind model • The ego, the inner critic, the saboteur—making these often-maligned parts into powerful allies • Burdens—why our parts become distorted and stuck in childhood traumas and cultural beliefs • How IFS demonstrates human goodness by revealing that there are no bad parts • The Self—discover your wise, compassionate essence of goodness that is the source of healing and harmony • Exercises for mapping your parts, accessing the Self, working with a challenging protector, identifying each part’s triggers, and more IFS is a paradigm-changing model because it gives us a powerful approach for healing ourselves, our culture, and our planet. As Dr. Schwartz teaches, “Our parts can sometimes be disruptive or harmful, but once they’re unburdened, they return to their essential goodness. When we learn to love all our parts, we can learn to love all people—and that will contribute to healing the world.”

Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
Told with Gareth's signature wit, humour and thoughtfulness, this story examines the way stories shape our past, present and future Eddie is pretty certain nowhere could be more small-town, more boring, and more inconsequential than his home town of the Wellcome Valley. Unfortunately, he is about to be proved spectacularly wrong. Eddie's problems start with the arrival of Scarlett, a new girl in town who seems rather too confident and mysterious for your average schoolgirl. She attracts trouble (and Eddie) like a magnet, and she's apparently only interested in two very strange things - protecting the town's local crackpot scientist, and telling Eddie absolutely nothing about what on earth is going on. And why is she so interested in Eddie's long-dead mother? Things quickly go from weird to worse for Eddie, as he finds himself right in the middle of a dangerous mystery - one with consequences not just for him and Scarlett, but time itself.
