Описание: The Pulitzer-Prize winning and Guggenheim-honored Hilton Als curates the best essays from hundreds of magazines, journals, and websites, bringing "the fierce style of street reading and the formal tradition of critical inquiry, reads culture, race, and gender" (New York Times) to the task.

"The essay, like love, like life, is indefinable, but you know an essay when you see it, and you know a great one when you feel it, because it is concentrated life," writes Hilton Als in his introduction. Expertly guided by Als's instinct and intellect, The Best American Essays 2018 showcases great essays as well as irresistibly eclectic ones. Go undercover in North Korea, delve into the question of race in the novels of William Faulkner, hang out in the 1970s New York music scene, and take a family road trip cum art pilgrimage. These experiences and more immersive slices of concentrated life await.

Описание:

Lost Horizon is a 1933 novel by English writer James Hilton. It is best remembered as the origin of Shangri-La, a fictional utopian lamasery high in the mountains of Tibet.

Hugh Conway, a veteran member of the British diplomatic service, finds inner peace, love, and a sense of purpose in Shangri-La, whose inhabitants enjoy unheard-of longevity. Among the book's themes is an allusion to the possibility of another cataclysmic world war brewing, as indeed it was at the time. It is said to have been inspired at least in part by accounts of travels in Tibetan borderlands, published in the National Geographic by the explorer and botanist Joseph Rock. The remote communities he visited, such as Muli, show many similarities to the fictional Shangri-La. One such town, Zhongdian, has now officially renamed itself as Shangri La (Chinese: Xianggelila) because of its claim to be the inspiration for the novel.

The book explicitly notes that having made war on the ground man would now fill the skies with death, and that all precious things were in danger of being lost, like the lost histories of Rome ("Lost books of Livy"). It was hoped that overlooked by the violent, Shangri-la would preserve them and reveal them later to a receptive world exhausted by war. That was the real purpose of the Lamasary; study, inner peace and long life were a side benefit to living there.

Conway is a veteran of the trench warfare of WWI, with the emotional state frequently cited after that war--a sense of emotional exhaustion or accelerated emotional aging. This harmonizes with the existing residents of the lamasary and he is strongly attracted to life at Shangri-La.

Описание: The purpose of this book is to introduce the security officer to the elements of "Domestic Terrorism", which is a growing threat in the United States of America. Since the terrible infliction of harm during 911, most Americans have been confronted with the reality of what terrorism means and its harm to the American way of life. We have all been changed since 911, and some of the freedoms we once had before that incident have been taken away. Government has seen fit to adopt laws to enter the privacy of the American citizens' lives and ignore the Constitution (Patriot Act), freedom to enter buildings, airports and entertainment venues have been restricted and individuals are subjected to constant and inviolate personal searches under the disguise of safety and security. States and the Federal government have reacted to terrorist acts by taking away or restricting the individual's right to protect themselves under the Second Amendment, which places the person in a greater position of harm. The founding fathers knew only too well the importance of a free society and its ability to protect itself from attack by outward or inward cowardly forces that would destroy the American way of life. Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik, a married couple, opened fire at a holiday party at the Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino on December 2, 2015. Fourteen people were killed and twenty-two injured, most of them county employees. Both attackers were killed in a gun battle with police. Farook, who was born in the U.S. and worked for the county, and Malik, a Pakistan national, had an arsenal of ammunition and pipe bombs in their Redlands home. Farook and Malik began plotting a terror attack before they were engaged and before Malik moved to the U.S. last year. Investigators are trying to determine whether they had links to foreign terror organization (Los Angeles Times, December 9, 2015). One constant factor which is emerging in many of the terrorist attacks around the country is absence of armed private security or private persons who could have limited or stopped such attacks by terrorists and reduced the casualties. The limitation of law enforcement as post-crime responders does nothing to stop these attacks when they are being conducted on the American people as they are happening, as was clearly seen in the San Bernardino incident. In many cases, the self-serving ideals of government and law enforcement to disarm private security officers and innocent law-abiding private citizens and take way the right to protect themselves under the Second Amendment further enhances terrorist attacks and terrorism against citizens who are the primary targets of such terrorist crimes. The private security officer is the first responder in many of these cases and as such, should be recognized for their contribution.
