One Kiss From You - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: They would never tell Mr. Remington Knight the truth. Eleanor’s heart sank as Mr. Remington Knight’s stern-faced butler made the announcement into the large, echoing foyer. “Her Grace, the duchess of Magnus.” To hear herself presented in such a formal manner made her want to glance about for her cousin. If only Madeline were here! If only she hadn’t turned aside from this mission for a more important task! If only Eleanor hadn’t agreed to impersonate her. At the far end of the room, a liveried footman bowed, then disappeared into an open doorway. He was gone only a moment, then returned and inclined his head to the butler. The butler turned to Eleanor and intoned, “The master is busy, but he will receive you soon. In the meantime, ma’am, I’m Bridgeport. May I take your cloak and bonnet?” Although noon had passed, the mists outside subdued the sunlight into a wash of gray. The light of the candles couldn’t illuminate the dark corners of Mr. Knight’s enormous entry, an entry built to communicate, in the surest way possible, the owner’s wealth. Eleanor’s nostrils quivered with scorn. Bridgeport jumped a little, as if anticipating her ripping at him as a substitute for his master. Of course Mr. Knight would take this house; he wanted everyone to know he was rolling in riches. He was, after all, nothing more than an upstart American who dreamed of marrying a title. Yet the entry was decorated with velvet draperies of evergreen and gold, and with a profusion of cut glass and beveled mirrors in marvelous good taste. Eleanor comforted herself with the thought that Mr. Knight had bought it in this condition and was even now planning to gut it and install gilt in the Chinese fashion, a style fully as vulgar as—Eleanor’s mouth quirked with humor—as vulgar as was adored by the Prince of Wales himself. Bridgeport relaxed and returned to his stolid demeanor. Generated by ABC Amber LIT Converter,
Prying Eyes : Protect Your Privacy From People Who Sell to You, Snoop on You, or Steal From You - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: You leave an electronic trail every time you use a credit card, rent a DVD, mail in a rebate form, go to the doctor, open a bank account, or surf the Internet at home and at work. News stories about identity theft, anti-terrorist legislation, cyber-stalking, marketing databases, and employer surveillance practices are evidence that your privacy is violated more and more every day.

You will learn: В·How information about your bank account, credit, and purchases is tracked, stored, and accessed–and how to limit your exposure. В·How to protect yourself from identity theft–and how to recover if you’ve been a victim. В·Risks to your privacy at work–why it is important to separate your personal life from your business life.

The Dance of Connection: How to Talk to Someone When You're Mad, Hurt, Scared, Frustrated, Insulted, Betrayed, or Desperate - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: In her most affirming and life-changing book yet, Dr. Harriet Lerner teaches us how to restore love and connection with the people who matter the most. In The Dance of Connection we learn what to say (and not say) when: We need an apology, and the person who has harmed us won't apologize or be accountable. We don't know how to take a conversation to the next level when we feel desperate. We feel worn down by the other person's criticism, negativity, or irresponsible behavior. We have been rejected or cut off, and the other person won't show up for the conversation. We are struggling with staying or leaving, and we don't know our ''bottom line.'' We are convinced that we've tried everything -- and nothing changes. Filled with compelling personal stories and case examples, Lerner outlines bold new ''voice lessons'' that show us how to speak with honor and personal integrity, even when the other person behaves badly. Whether we're dealing with a partner, parent, sister, or best friend, The Dance of Connection teaches us how to navigate our most important relationships with clarity, courage, and joyous conviction.
10 Conversations You Need to Have with Your Children - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Why do I have to repeat everything? Why does every conversation end in an argument? Communicating with our children. Conversing. Connecting. When did it become so difficult? And how do we begin to change it for the better? This book was designed to help parents answer these important questions, and it is based on two fundamental ideas: The first is that there are no bad children, and no deliberately bad parents -- but that sometimes, despite the best of intentions on both sides, there can be bad relationships between parents and children. The second is that, as parents, we must do everything we can to save those relationships, to reach out and really communicate with our children, because it is only through talking to them that we can create an environment for inspiration and change. In this compelling book, Shmuley Boteach, passionate social commentator and outspoken relationship guru, walks you through the critical conversations, including: cherishing childhood; developing intellectual curiosity; knowing who you are and what you want to become; learning to forgive; realizing the importance of family and tradition; being fearless and courageous . As a father of eight, Rabbi Shmuley speaks from a wealth of experience. He has written a book for parents of children of all ages, from toddlers, who are just beginning to become aware of the world around them, to adolescents, who must learn to navigate all sorts of tricky social and academic pressures. 10 Conversations will help you stay connected to your children so that they develop the kind of strong moral character that leads to rich, meaningful lives.
