Some Day You'll Thank Me for This: The Official Southern Ladies' Guide to Being a ''Perfect'' Mother - PDF
نویسندگان: Gayden Metcalfe, Charlotte Hays خلاصه: Tand we do—every day. Just for starters, we wouldn’thave had the material for our books without Ann Gayden Calland Julia Morgan Hall Hays, our wonderful Southern mothers.We miss them every day, and, whenever we think we might beturning into them, we thank our lucky stars. Both were greatDelta conversationalists, and both gave the lie to William ButlerYeats’ contention that souls are had only by those who are “notentirely beautiful.” They were belles of every ball and quietlycourageous—and they knew all the gossip. (P.S. We never sit onstrange commode seats or say s-t-i-n-k.)We can’t thank our agent Gail Ross enough—without Gailwhat we have come to jokingly refer to as our “pastel trilogy”(our three “Southern lady books” have pastel covers) would notvAcknowledgmentsexist. Gail shaped and sold the idea and has supported usthroughout the process.We have also been fortunate to work with a great team atHyperion. We especially thank Leslie Wells for her deft touchwith prose and because, a Virginian transplanted to New York,she still speaks Southernese—what more could we ask? Well,one more thing you get in Leslie is an editor who is consider-ate of authors and gets back to you so quickly you think she’sable by some mystical means to read your copy almost beforeyou’ve hit the “send” button. Anybody who writes for a livingknows how much this means.We are indebted to a host of friends and relatives who sharedstories about their mothers and allowed us to use their treasuredrecipes; we must also thank Gayden’s witty nephew Hugh Dick-son Gayden Miller for essential help with the sidebars.We originally considered making a list of great Southernmothers we have known, mothers of our friends, mostly, but werealized this was too fraught with peril—we inevitably wouldleave out somebody whose charm and kindness has nourishedus. So let us just say a general thanks to Southern mothers wehave know

The Call: Discovering Why You Are Here - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Oriah Mountain Dreamer خلاصه: Sit in a comfortable position, preferably upright but relaxed. Takethree deep breaths into your belly, allowing your body to expandwith the inhale and contract and drop on the exhale. Send yourbreath on each inhale into all parts of your body—feet and legs,hands and arms, neck and head—and allow all stress or tensionor tiredness to leave as you exhale. Breathing normally, gentlybring your focus to your breath, allowing all other thoughts orsensations to simply drift by as they come, neither resisting norengaging them with your attention. Let the breath be at the centerof your stillness.Into this place of deep stillness, allow an image of yourself tocome, remembering a time when you offered something to some-one else. Let it be something as small as holding a door open foran elderly person or extending comfort to a child who hadskinned his or her knee. It may have been a moment when youshared something of yourself, telling a story of your life with an-other. It may have been a moment when you created beauty foranother in how you listened or how you offered something—ameal, a smile, an encouraging word. It may have been a momentwhen you turned away from seeking retribution. Allow whatevercomes to be there without judgment about what you think theimpact of what you offered was, without analyzing to what degreeyour desire to offer something was mixed with other motives.

Teen Driving (Issues That Concern You) - PDF
نویسندگان: Linda Aksomitis خلاصه: In the case of Robertson v. the Department of Public Works, JusticeTolman of the Washington State Supreme Court stated that:Complete freedom of the highways is so old and well establisheda blessing that we have forgotten the days of the Robber Baronsand toll roads, and yet, under an act like this [regarding a lackof jurisdiction in a case on driving without a license], arbitrarilyadministered, the highways may be completely monopolized;if, through lack of interest, the people submit, then they maylook to see the most sacred of their liberties taken from themone by one, by more or less rapid encroachment.The question remains, though: Is driving a right or a privi-lege? Nina A. of Byron Center, Michigan, published an articleon teenink.com describing the day she decided it was indeed aprivilege. While driving her little blue Geo Tracker early onemorning, struggling to stay awake, she ran a red light and causedan accident. She wrote, “Nothing is more important than hav-ing enough sleep to drive safely and keep myself and others safe(and possibly even alive). These are all reminders of just how biga privilege driving really is.”If driving were considered a right, instead of a privilege, shouldanyone be able to just hop into a vehicle—car, truck, tractortrailer—and hit the interstate? What of learning the traffic lawsfirst and passing a driver’s license test? Should people have tostudy driving laws in advance, or will they automatically figureout how it all works when they jump behind the wheel of a 4,000-pound car or an 80,000-pound 18-wheeler? What happens if theydo not figure it out quickly enough? Somebody dies.

Words That Work, Revised, Updated Edition: It's Not What You Say, It's What People Hear - PDF
نویسندگان: Frank Luntz خلاصه: This is the part where most authors describe their efforts as a “labor oflove” and then list all the special people who “made this book possible.”I can’t. The truth is, this was the single most difficult task I haveundertaken—and it ensured that I did not get a decent night’s sleep forthe past year.The person most responsible for my lack of fitful rest is my agent,Lorin Rees, from whom I mistakenly took a call on a rare Sunday whenI actually wasn’t working eight hours. He convinced me to use that af-ternoon to write up a book proposal that somehow he managed to sell atexactly the minimum amount I was willing to accept. He has never re-ceived a pleasant e-mail from me during this entire process. At least hemade some money out of it.Next in line is Jonathan Karl, who has spent the last half decade end-lessly nagging me into writing this text. He doesn’t know this but on sev-eral occasions during the more stressful periods I actually thought abouthaving Dr. Kevorkian pay him a visit. I have to be careful not to say any-thing bad about him: He’s one of the best reporters in Washington, D.C.,and he’s liable to go out and dig up dirt on me.
