Описание:

From the beginning of our lives to the end, all of humanity celebrates lifes milestones through traditions and unique customs. In the United States, we have specific events like baby showers, rites of passage such as Bat and Bar Mitzvahs and sweet 16 birthday parties, and sober end-of-life traditions like obituaries and funeral services that honor those who have died. But what kinds of customs and traditions are practiced in other countries? How do people in other cultures welcome babies, prepare to enter into adulthood, and commemorate the end of the lives of loved ones?

This three-volume encyclopedia covers more than 300 birth, life, and death customs, with the books content organized chronologically by life stage. Volume 1 focuses on birth and childhood customs, Volume 2 documents adolescent and early-adulthood customs, and Volume 3 looks at aging and death customs. The entries in the first volume examine pre-birth traditions, such as baby showers and other gift-giving events, and post-birth customs, such as naming ceremonies, child-rearing practices, and traditions performed to ward off evil or promote good health. The second volume contains information about rites of passage as children become adults, including indigenous initiations, marriage customs, and religious ceremonies. The final volume concludes with coverage on customs associated with aging and death, such as retirement celebrations, elaborate funeral processions, and the creation of fantasy coffins. The set features beautiful color inserts that illustrate examples of celebrations and ceremonies and includes an appendix of excerpts from primary documents that include legislation on government-accepted names, wedding vows, and maternity/paternity leave regulations.

Описание:

Morgan knew she didn't want to go out to sea...now she knew why.

The simple act of a surprise birthday party brings trouble from the depths off Pearl Island, and Morgan is forced to solve a murder and confront the threat to the island. It's her destiny to protect Pearl Island and it's residence, just as it's Cora's destiny to try and destroy Morgan.

The sea witch is full of trickery and malice as she tries to lure a group of ocean salvage divers with the promise of gifts from the sea. But Morgan, with the help of her friends Gabe Holleran and the Colbright sisters, plans her own slight-of-hand.

Who will win this battle? As Morgan tries to find the murderer, she also finds more about the history of Pearl Island and the roles the Seaver Family has played in the battles against the tricks and deceptions of the sea witch.

Each entry includes sections on the group's geography and environment; history and politics; society, culture, and tradition; access to health care and education; and threats to survival. Each entry concludes with See Also cross-references and a list of Further Reading resources to guide readers in their research. Included in the encyclopedia are also Native Voices inset boxes, allowing readers a glimpse into the daily lives of members of these indigenous groups, as well as an appendix featuring the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

Love Cozy Mysteries? Love Christmas Stories?

The Toy Puzzle is the first novella in the Tattle Tale Cafe Series. Leigh-Ann hears all the gossip as she serves the best coffee in town to her customers. When she hears the toys from a local toy drive have been stolen, Leigh-Ann trades her waitress skills for detecting skills. The toys must be found before Christmas.

And there is a bonus Now Arriving from the Sister Station Series. Two sisters accept the challenge from their grandmother; spend a year in their hometown and do something special with the old train station. Their first Christmas in Skipton is an eyeopener, and both women come to their decisions about their future.

Описание:

In the long-awaited fourth installment in the steamy PESCADERO CREEK SERIES, Rob and Morgan have just reconciled after a lengthy separation. Rob has moved back home with his wife and children, and everyone is thrilled when the couple announce that an addition to the family will arrive later that summer. Their home is truly a happy one with weddings and parties taking place. But amidst all the celebrating, the Warren-McAllister mansion seems to take on a life of its own.

Frequently witnessing strange events in the home; Agent McAllister fears that he may just be losing his grip on reality again. When he begins seeing the wraith of a young woman in his bedroom, Rob tries desperately to determine a logical explanation for the apparition.

Witnessing her husband's erratic behavior, Morgan fears that Rob is relapsing after the car accident in which he suffered a traumatic brain injury. Clinging to hope that he is not going to change back into the monster he became after his injury, she vows to remain true to her husband, even if it means delving into her own unhappy childhood to prove his sanity.

Will Rob and Morgan be able to put the past behind them and start a new life together? Or have the the dark secrets of the Warren family's past come back to permanently separate them?

Описание: Grade Six Music Theory for ABRSM Candidates

A complete course for students taking the ABRSM Grade 6 music theory exam.

This book takes you through each topic with a step-by-step approach. The topic in each unit is explained in simple terms with several musical examples, and is then followed by a page of consolidation exercises so that you can immediately practice your new-found knowledge. Model answers are provided.

The course covers the ABRSM syllabus for Grade Six, which is a high intermediate level.

The course is broken down into three sections, which mirror the way the exam paper is organised - harmony, composition and score-based analysis questions.


In the harmony section, you will learn how chords are constructed, about their inversions and the way they are commonly put into progressions and cadences. You will learn how to harmonise a simple melody, by choosing chords that both sound good, and also agree with the "rules" of harmony set down in the classical era. Also in this section, you will learn how to read "figured bass", which is a short-hand system for notating chords. You will be able to produce a piece of 4-part harmony from a single figured bass line, and also learn how to create a figured bass line which will fit a given melody. You will learn how the figured bass system works, how to answer the exam questions, with plenty of tips to help you remember as you go along.

In the composition section of the course, you will find out exactly what the examiner is expecting of you, in order to gain top marks for your composition. You will learn how to structure a melody, how to use the ideas from the provided given opening to create the rest of the piece, and how to write performance directions which are meaningful and musical. You will also learn about changing key (modulation) and the most effective way to do this.

The last section of the course is general knowledge - you will learn how to answer a range of questions based on a score for either an chamber work, or an orchestral piece. You'll learn about how ensemble scores are organised, which instruments transpose and how, as well as a myriad of other skills such as intervals, writing out ornaments, or analysing harmony.

Perfect for self-study, or to use with your music teacher.

Ample musical illustrations and exercises are included, with model answers provided. Each page has been carefully designed to be suitable for photocopying.

This book is "bilingual", and contains both UK and USA musical terminology.

Описание: From Sit-Ins to #revolutions examines the evolution and growth of digital activism, while at once outlining how scholars theorize and conceptualize the field through new methodologies.As it closely examines the role that social and digital media play in enabling protests, this volume probes the interplay between historical and contemporary protests, emancipation and empowerment, and online and offline protest activities. Drawn from academic and activist communities, the contributors look beyond often-studied mass action events in the USA, UK, and Australia to also incorporate perspectives from overlooked regions such as Aboriginal Australia, Thailand, Mexico, India, Jamaica and Black America. From illustrating the allure of political action to a closer look at how digital activists use new technologies to push toward reform, From Sit-Ins to #revolutions promises to shed new light on key questions within activism, from campaign organization and leadership to messaging and direct action.
