Описание:

Cassie's always looked up to her mom, a vivacious woman with big ideas and a mischievous smile. Together they planned to check off every item on a big-dream bucket list, no matter how far the adventure would take them. But then Mom was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease, and everything changed.

Now, Cassie tries to keep Mom happy, and to understand some of Dad's restrictive new rules. She tries to focus on math lessons and struggles to come up with art ideas that used to just burst off her pen. When mom's memories started to fade, so did Cassie's inspiration. And even worse, she's accidentally pushed away Bailey, the one friend who could make it all okay.

After the worst Mom day yet, the day she forgets Cassie's name, Cassie decides to take action. It's time for one last adventure, even if it means lying and taking a big risk to get there. Sandy Stark-McGinnis, acclaimed author of Extraordinary Birds, explores big questions - the kind that don't always have answers - in a powerful story about family, friendship, and the memories that will always be part of us.

Описание: This First Holy Communion catechism was designed specifically with young traditional Catholic children in mind. It was put together by a Catholic author of many books, as well as founder of St. Jerome Library, and homeschooling mother of nine (with the help of her children). It was also looked over by priests for errors. This mother's hope was to design a catechism filled with beautiful full-color pictures which could better explain the beautiful mysteries of our Catholic faith without the errors that are increasingly popping up in modern day "catechisms". She found that often children are visual learners, and this catechism helps immensely with the honorable task of training children for their reception of Penance, Confirmation, and Holy Communion. This catechism is filled with pictures detailing common prayers: The Apostles' Creed, the Our Father, the Hail Mary, as well as others. It contains pictures and explanations of the seven sacraments, the seven gifts of the Holy Ghost, the Ten Commandments, and basic catechism often required in preparation for a child receiving these marvelous gifts from Our Lord. It also includes Instructions for Confession. This catechism would also be a great tool for preschoolers in helping them learn their prayers and understanding truths of the Faith. Perfect for homeschooling or teaching Kindergartners and 1st Graders. May God bless you in all your efforts to help raise saints for Heaven. Praised be Jesus and Mary

Описание: A standout among introductory biomechanics texts, Biomechanics of Sport and Exercise, Fourth Edition With Web Resource, takes a unique approach to introducing exercise and sport biomechanics. Using simple terms, the book presents mechanics before functional anatomy, helping students first understand external forces and their effects on motion; then explores how the musculoskeletal system responds and generates its own internal forces to maintain position; and finally shows how to apply biomechanical principles to analyze movement and ultimately improve performance. The fourth edition expands its commitment to enabling students to discover the principles of biomechanics through observation. Easy-to-understand experiments are presented for students to try in the classroom or on their own. Sample problem sidebars guide students through choosing the appropriate equation to determine the forces acting or motion occurring in a specific scenario and then helps them solve the equation. This practical approach-combining clear illustrations, sample calculations, and encouragement for active learning-helps students develop a deeper understanding of the underlying mechanical concepts. In addition to careful updates throughout the book, other new enhancements in the fourth edition include the following: New content explores the technologies and devices available to coaches, athletes, and the general public to measure aspects of athletes’ movements.New full-color art and diagrams enhance the text and help students visualize mechanics in real-world scenarios.Explanations of the equations used in the text make the content more accessible to students.New concept application boxes provide deeper analysis of the field use of biomechanics, with topics such as the Magnus effect in baseball pitching, the wetsuit effect in triathlons, power output in cycling, centripetal acceleration when running a curve, and the work-energy principles in modern shot putting. Other learning aids include bold key terms, chapter objectives, and a guide to key equations and abbreviations. The chapters include a total of 18 sample problems that students can solve using a step-by-step process. A companion web resource offers additional review questions and problem sets.Biomechanics of Sport and Exercise, Fourth Edition, introduces the biomechanics of human movement in a clear and concise manner while promoting an active, engaged learning experience. Students will discover the principles of mechanics for themselves, resulting in a strong understanding of the subject matter.

Описание: John McGinnis and Michael Rappaport argue that the text of the Constitution and its Amendments should be adhered to by the Supreme Court because it was enacted by supermajorities. A text approved by supermajorities has special value in a democracy because it has unusually wide support and tends to maximize the welfare of the greatest number.

Описание:

Mindy McGinnis, award-winning author of The Female of the Species and A Madness So Discreet, returns with a new dark and twisted psychological thriller--perfect for fans of Gone Girl and Fight Club.

Sasha Stone knows her place--first-chair clarinet, top of her class, and at the side of her Oxford-wearing boyfriend. She's worked her entire life to ensure her path to Oberlin Conservatory as a star musician is perfectly paved.

But suddenly there's a fork in the road in the shape of Isaac Harver. Her body shifts toward him when he walks by, and her skin misses his touch even though she's never known it. Why does he act like he knows her so well--too well--when she doesn't know him at all?

Sasha discovers that her by-the-book life began by ending the chapter of another: the twin sister she absorbed in the womb. But that doesn't explain the gaps of missing time in her practice schedule, or the memories she has of things she certainly never did with Isaac.

Armed with the knowledge that her heart might not be hers alone, Sasha must decide what she's willing to do--and who she's willing to hurt--to take it back.
