Farewell, Fred Voodoo: A Letter from Haiti
?
?

Book Description

January 8, 2013 The Rainy Season, Amy Wilentz's award-winning 1989 portrait of Haiti after the fall of Jean-Claude Duvalier, was praised in the New York Times Book Review as "a remarkable account of a journalist's transformation by her subject." In her relationship with the country since then, Wilentz has witnessed more than one magical transformation. Now, with Farewell, Fred Voodoo, she gives us a vivid portrayal of the extraordinary people living in this stark place.

Wilentz traces the country's history from its slave plantations through its turbulent revolutionary history, its kick-up-the-dirt guerrilla movements, its totalitarian dynasty that ruled for decades, and its long and always troubled relationship with the United States. Yet through a history of hardship shines Haiti's creative culture—its African traditions, its French inheritance, and its uncanny resilience, a strength that is often confused with resignation.

Haiti emerged from the dust of the 2010 earthquake like a powerful spirit, and this stunning book describes the country's day-to-day struggle and its relationship to outsiders who come to help out. There are human-rights reporters gone awry, movie stars turned aid workers, priests and musicians running for president, doctors turned diplomats. A former U.S. president works as a house builder and voodoo priests try to control elections.

A foreign correspondent on a simple story becomes, over time and in the pages of this book, a lover of Haiti, pursuing the essence of this beautiful and confounding land into its darkest and brightest corners. Farewell, Fred Voodoo is a spiritual journey into the heart of the human soul, and Haiti has found in Amy Wilentz an author of astonishing wit, sympathy, and eloquence.

Book Description

The only book that shows you how and where to find the best deals for phone calls, texts, and data if you're visiting Australia.

This eBook will pay for itself—many times over. If you use your mobile phone while you are in Australia, you could return home to a huge bill for roaming. Voice calls are expensive. Data roaming charges can be astronomical.

The solution? You could leave your phone at home. Or you could spend hours navigating the complicated Australian cellphone system, with no guarantee of success. Now there's a better option—we've done the legwork for you.

? Save yourself time: no need to spend hours searching the Web for SIM card deals
? Save yourself money: a local SIM is much cheaper than roaming, and can probably work with your phone, but you need to pick the right deal on the right network
? Save yourself hassle: we tell you exactly what to ask for in-store, and where to find a phone retailer
? Packed with advice, whether you want a simple phone for making local calls or like to remain constantly connected to the Internet
? Browse the Internet from your phone just as you would at home—and just as cheaply
? Find the best deals in Australia, whether you're visiting from the USA, the UK, New Zealand, India, the Middle East or anywhere else
? Includes key resources such as Web links and store addresses for phone stores in key Australian cities

The authors are experienced travel, technology and business journalists. John Band is a business writer, strategy consultant, and communications junkie. He has worked across Australia, Europe, Asia and the USA. Donald Strachan is a consumer travel technology columnist for the Sunday Telegraph. He has written features for leading newspapers and magazines, including the Guardian and National Geographic Traveller, and authored or co-authored several guidebooks for leading US publisher, Frommer's.

Book Description

January 25, 2013 The Mississippi Delta is a complicated and fascinating place. Part travel guide, part cookbook, and part photo essay, Eat Drink Delta by veteran food journalist Susan Puckett (with photographs by Delta resident Langdon Clay) reveals a region shaped by slavery, civil rights, amazing wealth, abject deprivation, the Civil War, a flood of biblical proportions, and—above all—an overarching urge to get down and party with a full table and an open bar.

There's more to Delta dining than southern standards. Puckett uncovers the stories behind convenience stores where dill pickles marinate in Kool-Aid and diners where tabouli appears on plates with fried chicken. She celebrates the region's hot tamale makers who follow the time-honored techniques that inspired many a blues lyric. And she introduces us to a new crop of Delta chefs who brine chicken in sweet tea and top stone-ground Mississippi grits with local pond-raised prawns and tomato confit. The guide also provides a taste of events such as Belzoni's World Catfish Festival and Tunica's Wild Game Cook-Off and offers dozens of tested recipes, including the Memphis barbecue pizza beloved by Elvis and a lemon ice-box pie inspired by Tennessee Williams.

To William Faulkner's suggestion, "To understand the world, you must first understand a place like Mississippi," Susan Puckett adds this advice: Go to the Delta with an open mind and an empty stomach. Make your way southward in a journey measured in meals, not miles.

This map covers the following areas:
Main London City Map 1:20,000
London Underground Map - London Tube Map

London is one of the most popular, populated and accessible cites on earth. People love London. And why not? Londoners are charming and helpful, and their city operates on such a high dosage of civility that it could be considered an art form. London is an urban oasis where you can search out cutting edge design, cuisine, fashion, chic neighborhoods, or traditional culture.

When visiting London, be prepared to walk. Whether its basic window shopping, advanced people watching, or the rewarding task of locating restaurants and museums, London is urban roaming at its best. Days can be spent just visiting London's neighborhoods, each with its own character, atmosphere and unique offerings.

The STREETWISE? Map of London UK will enable you to go anywhere in central London. The detailed and indexed depiction of streets, tube stations, sites and hotels will enable you to spend more time making new urban discoveries than less time complaining about disorientation. Say you choose Mayfair, for its refined and cultured demeanor. Take an afternoon stroll wandering through Berkeley Square, Grovesnor Square and Green Park then finish with an espresso at Rochaux's cafe. You'll briefly feel exclusive. Wander the back alleys in Soho and you will never know what or who you'll run across. The very trendy Covent Garden is dense with human interaction packed into a small area. Walk up to Bloomsbury with its literary heritage to be amazed by the vast holdings within the British Museum.

The original city of London is the square mile of the city center, now the financial center as well. Immerse yourself in history and architecture with its many fantastic buildings beginning with St Paul's Cathedral on the western edge and ending at the Tower of London to the eastside. Hike over the Thames on the Tower Bridge to see the Design Museum and the HMS Belfast.

You are now on the South Bank dominated by Waterloo Station and its surrounding shopping and dining area. The London Eye will provide an interesting overhead perspective of greater London. Come back to earth and walk the Thames along Queen's walk pedestrian path and you'll be rewarded upon finding Gabriel's Wharf, the Tate Modern, the famous wobbly Millennium Bridge and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.

Walk South through Hyde Park and you encounter Knightsbridge. It is one of London's most fashionable neighborhoods, the home of Harrod's (the Vatican of department stores) and Beauchamp Place, one of London's most fashionable shopping streets. If shopping is not on the agenda, there are museums like the Victoria & Albert, the Science Museum, and the Natural History Museum. South of Knightsbridge is Belgravia. This area has long been the aristocratic section of London, rivaling Mayfair in grandeur and tranquility.

Our London street map is fully indexed with streets, concert halls, hotels, museums and galleries, parks, points of interest, shopping areas and transportation terminals. A separate inset map of the London Underground, the Tube, is also included to facilitate your travel around the city.

Book Description

March 5, 2013

What is love? This six-week Bible study helps teen girls understand what true love looks like. By focusing on the life of Jesus, these girls will come to understand that Love is, first and foremost, a Someone. The more we understand Jesus, the more we understand God's original intent behind this overused, abused, and muddled word: love.

Each week girls will do an in-depth study of one of Jesus' relationships described in the Bible. By examining the way Jesus interacted with others, they will see the perfect example of love.?Through four repetitive phases—read, realize, respond, and retain—teen girls will learn a method of studying the Bible that they can apply to any Scripture?passage and that will motivate them to read more frequently and independently in the future. By analyzing?the Bible stories, each girl will in turn be able to analyze her own relationships to see if they are?based on God's idea of love, and will walk away with a deeper understanding of the love?relationship God seeks to have with her.

Features include:

  • 6 sessions of study

The Self-Esteem Workbook for Teens: Activities to Help You Build Confidence and Achieve Your Goals
?

?

Book Description

June 1, 2013

As a teen, it is incredibly important to have self-confidence, especially when you consider societal pressures about appearance and grades. Just growing up is difficult in and of itself, and in the midst of all this life-related stress, you may not be seeing yourself clearly. In fact, you may be magnifying your weaknesses and minimizing—or even ignoring—your true assets.

Psychologists believe that low self-esteem is at the root of many emotional problems. When you have healthy self-esteem, you feel good about yourself and see yourself as deserving of the respect of others. When you have low self-esteem, you put little value on your opinions and ideas, and may find yourself fading into the background of life. Without some measure of self-worth, you cannot accomplish your goals.

In The Self-Esteem Workbook for Teens, you will learn to develop a healthy, realistic view of yourself that includes honest assessments of your weaknesses and strengths, and you will learn to respect yourself, faults and all. You will also learn the difference between self-esteem and being self-centered, self-absorbed, or selfish. Finally, this book will show you how to distinguish the outer appearance of confidence from the quiet, steady, inner acceptance and humility of true self-esteem.

The book also includes practical exercises to help you deal with setbacks and self-doubt, skills for dealing with criticism, and activities that will aid in the development of self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self-worth. With the right amount of self-confidence, you will have the emotional resources you need to reach your goals.

January 2, 2013 True Stories

In 1978 Christiane F. testified against a man who had traded heroin for sex with teenage girls at Berlin's notorious Zoo Station. In the course of that trial, Christiane F. became connected with two journalists, and over time they helped to turn her story—which begins with a dysfunctional but otherwise fairly normal childhood—into an acclaimed bestseller. Christiane F.'s rapid descent into heroin abuse and prostitution is shocking, but the boredom, the longing for acceptance, the thrilling risks, and even the musical obsessions that fill out the rest of Christiane's existence will be familiar to every reader. Christiane F.'s Berlin is a strange and often terrifying place, but it's also a place that remains closer than we might think….

How To Play Tennis: Think Like A Pro, Not Like An Amateur

Book Description

If you could perceive the game of tennis as a pro does, would you do it? Would you be willing to change your mental paradigm about tennis – to play at your current level, but perceive it at a higher level?
I've written this book to share my insights with you. It's not meant to replace on-court instruction that will improve your strokes, footwork, etc. It goes beyond the mechanics. This book won't help you tune up your volleys and groundstrokes, but it'll help you see when a particular shot will be your "weapon of choice." Even more important, the concepts in this book will enhance your awareness so you play your best tennis, and enjoy the sport the way you've always wanted to. Let's get started!

Inner Slingshot: The Key to Modern Tennis

Book Description

Thanks to the internet, there is by now an unprecedented discussion community in tennis, the best of which, in my opinion, occurs at tennisplayer.net .

Tennis players who no longer are beginners may choose to continue their education in the game through structured lessons or not. Or through how-to books similar to sex manuals or perhaps not.

In the tennis books which I despise, which is nearly all of them, I will browse to page 186 for the single tip that I know can help me.

I don't want INNER SLINGSHOT: THE KEY TO MODERN TENNIS to be one of those hack books. But aside from my desire, the internet requires new literary forms if the quality of its writing is to surpass-- eventually-- that of modern paper books.

So I've made this book exceptionally personal and heartfelt, and no one has messed with it except for myself.
