Описание: Nana's, "Book of Love Letters", which was written to Jesus' precious children, consists of thirteen letters. The thirteenth letter is a birthday letter which is appropriate for any month. These carefully thought out letters were prayed over and changed many times by the inspiration of Gods input and love to his little ones. They do not have to start in January as a continuation or connection of each month. They are written as separate entities with each letter introducing the month of which I am writing about. This would include the time of year, the seasons, and many of the holidays. There are exaggerated adjectives and exclamations to bring out refreshing fun, laughter, and surprise to the child in the sentences. The younger years of my past are woven together with the present life situations to capture and stimulate the child's imagination. New creative ways are introduced in playing, crafts, and jokes they can share with their friends. The intent, (above all), is to intertwine the love of Jesus throughout the letters. This is circled around love that is expressed to them and love that can come from them to others. The captivating tailored letters are inspired by God to help instill confidence, good moral conduct and mold a Godly character in them.

Описание:

Until recently, Austin, the progressive, politically liberal capital of Texas, elected its city council using a not-so-progressive system. Candidates competed citywide for seats, and voters could cast ballots for as many candidates as there were seats up for election. However, this approach disadvantages the representation of geographically-concentrated minority groups, thereby—among other things—preventing the benefits of growth from reaching all of the city’s communities.

Reinventing the Austin City Council explores the puzzle that was Austin’s reluctance to alter its at-large system and establish a geographically-based, single-member district system. Ann Bowman chronicles the repeated attempts to change the system, the eventual decision to do so, and the consequences of that change. In the process, she explores the many twists and turns that occurred in Austin as it struggled to design a fair system of representation. Reinventing the Austin City Council assesses the impact of the new district system since its inception in 2014. 

Austin’s experience ultimately offers a political lesson for creating institutional change.

Описание:

In Japan, as late as the mid-nineteenth century, smallpox claimed the lives of an estimated twenty percent of all children born—most of them before the age of five. When the apathetic Tokugawa shogunate failed to respond, Japanese physicians, learned in Western medicine and medical technology, became the primary disseminators of Jennerian vaccination—a new medical technology to prevent smallpox. Tracing its origins from rural England, Jannetta investigates the transmission of Jennerian vaccination to and throughout pre-Meiji Japan. Relying on Dutch, Japanese, Russian, and English sources, the book treats Japanese physicians as leading agents of social and institutional change, showing how they used traditional strategies involving scholarship, marriage, and adoption to forge new local, national, and international networks in the first half of the nineteenth century. The Vaccinators details the appalling cost of Japan's almost 300-year isolation and examines in depth a nation on the cusp of political and social upheaval.
