Описание: It's easier to imagine ghosts haunting gloomy, medieval castles in Europe or brooding mansions in New England than bright, cheerful homes across the Sunshine State, but ghosts abound in sunny, tropical Florida. In fact, Florida absolutely oozes the weird, the creepy, and the ghastly. Here are true stories of haunted places up and down Florida's Gulf Coast, including eyewitness accounts. Read about Robert the haunted doll, the phantom phone that rings at the Belleview-Biltmore Hotel, and the spirits who refuse to leave the Royalty Theater.

Описание: In this new and persuasively argued study, philosopher Rod Cameron argues that definitive absolute Idealism changes the definition of logic, annuls ethics, and diminishes objective truth. Entitlement to `logic` is due to knowledge of the logos. The logos is religion and reasoning`s common origin.
Sourced and written from hundreds of research papers and dozens of interviews the book chronicles, in layman's terms, a history of the unwelcome appearance of red tide and blue-green algae in Southwest Florida's coastal estuaries beginning in the 16th century up until the present day.
Then, using the most current available medical research, it discusses the effects of the algae outbreaks on human health, and concludes with a critical review of state and federal efforts to deal with a growing problem affecting residents and visitors.
The book is intended to inform and create a call to action by politicians and regulatory agencies before the problem overwhelms the economy of southwest Florida.

Описание: Experience wild Florida with this guide to 100 off-the-grid hikes from every corner of the state. Florida’s five water management districts encompass millions of acres of public property that include thousands of miles of public trails. In Backcountry Trails of Florida, Terri Mashour explains where to find these little-known routes, which ecosystems they feature, and how to plan your perfect outdoor adventure. Mashour describes the hidden wonders hikers will discover in each district. Northwest Florida offers views of sandhills, clear and cold springs, and river bluffs. The Suwannee River area is crisscrossed with meandering creeks. In the St. Johns River watershed, conservation lands include large cattle ranches, lakeshores, and levee restoration projects. In Southwest Florida, manatee swim up rivers from the Gulf of Mexico. And the South Florida district is home to water treatment areas, pine flatwoods, and the mangrove islands of the Everglades. As a former land manager who has taken care of many of the areas these trails cross, Mashour shares her experiences working with cowboys and ranchers and her love of the Florida backcountry. Whether you are a hiker, trail runner, off-road bicyclist, or equestrian, this guidebook will help you locate and enjoy wide expanses of pristine nature not far from your own backyard.

Описание: With a near 50% divorce rate in the United States, every parent who reads this book is either going through a divorce, has been divorced, is married to or living with someone who is divorced, or will go through one or more of his/her children`s divorces. Unlike books designed to enlighten parents about children`s reactions to divorce, A Parents` Guide to Child Custody is written for parents themselves. The book provides parents with an overview of the context within which custody is decided by courts today, including a chapter-by-chapter explanation of the factors that are considered by the court in rendering a custody decision. Part I opens the book with three brief case histories in which the reader is asked to put herself/himself in the place of the court by imaging what custody decisions they would make if they were the judge. This chapter is followed by an orientation to the three major factors that all courts consider in coming to a custody decision. Each subsequent chapter addresses the specific factors that are weighed by the court in its deliberations. Part II provides a more in-depth view of such topics as the factors considered by judges in coming to a custody decision, what to expect when undergoing a child custody evaluation, the use and pitfalls of psychological tests, the assessment of parental capacity, and strategies for countering false allegations. Part III reviews eight myths (i.e. commonly held misconceptions) about what is best for children, as well as guidelines for discussing custody with your children. Part IV provides insight into how best to deal with parental alienation, domestic violence, and obstruction of one parent`s access by the other parent after the court has ruled on custody. Part V concludes with eight sure-fire ways to lose custody as well as the custody evaluator`s recommendations in each of the three hypothetical cases presented in Part I. It is the author`s sincere hope that this book will help parents become better advocates for themselves and for their children.
