This book is the most comprehensive reference grammar of Choctaw, an American Indian language spoken by approximately eleven thousand people located primarily in Mississippi and Oklahoma. Based on nineteen years of field work with speakers of the Mississippi and Oklahoma dialects and more than 150 years of written Choctaw material, A Choctaw Reference Grammar contains the most complete description to date of the morphology of the language as well as a thorough treatment of phrase structure, word order, case marking, and complementation.
The Choctaw tribe was divided into Oklahoma and Mississippi groups during the Indian Removal of the 1830s. Today the majority of fluent speakers among the Oklahoma Choctaws are more than forty years old, and few children speak the language. Although more children among the Mississippi Choctaws learn the language, the number is declining. Because language is vital to preserving the Choctaws’ way of life and both dialects of Choctaw are endangered, careful documentation of the grammatical structure of the language is critically important. Compiled by the leading scholarly expert on the Choctaw language, George Aaron Broadwell, this volume is both a practical guide to Native speakers and an indispensable handbook for linguists.

Today's global economy depends on the sharing of knowledge rather than the provision of goods and services. Knowledge can originate at any level of the organization. New models of classroom leadership are needed to prepare children for their more interactive future. Moreover, students are better equipped to interact with their teachers than ever before. They get frustrated when they can't participate in decision-making. As professor William Glasser writes, "Boss management fails because it limits both the quality of the work and the production of the (student) worker. Its use actually causes most of the discipline problems we are trying to prevent." Don Broadwell, a former Marine, college instructor, and leadership scholar offers a blueprint that will help teachers and students become more successful.
Learn how to:
* discern the differences between collaborative leading and command-and-control;
* create you own leader style. One size does not fit all;
* make leading exciting for students;
* turn leading a classroom into a stimulating, stress-free activity.
From the evolution of leadership thought from Lao Tzu in ancient times, through the Human Potential Movement of the 1990s, to the present emphasis on collaboration, this book is an essential resource for anyone who works with and cares about children. Don Broadwell lays a solid foundation and makes a persuasive argument for changing the way teachers facilitate the decision-making process. Collaboration between students and their teacher in goal setting, activities selection, and outcomes assessment promises much more than buy in; it leads to enthusiastic achievement embraced by all classroom stakeholders, children, teachers, administrators, parents, and community.

Описание: Coyote Sunrise is the first book in a mystical encounter series that combines Native American mythology, shapeshifters, and romantic suspense. Sara, Istaga, and their two-year-old baby are not what they seem-they are shifters. When the Predator Masters arrive and hunt coyotes for sport, Istaga turns into a snarling replica of himself, insisting they travel far into the mountains to warn other coyotes and keep out of danger. But before that can happen, Sara's former husband, Raleigh, steals their baby girl, and when he discovers what she is, wants to put her in a zoo. When Istaga shifts into a coyote and nearly kills Raleigh, someone manages to get the entire surreal scene on his camera phone. From that moment on, Sara and Istaga are thrown into turmoil, their lives and that of their shape-shifting baby placed in grave danger. With hunters and the police searching for them, they head for the hills.What will it take to free themselves from Raleigh? Can their love survive?

An unprecedented examination of General David Petraeus, the greatest military mind of his generation, over the course of his career, his command in Afghanistan, and his ascent to the CIA.
General David Petraeus bears the mantle of Grant, Patton, MacArthur, Marshall, and Eisenhower. In "All In," military expert Paula Broadwell examines Petraeus's career, his intellectual development as a commander, and his impact as a transformative leader in the military, to give us a deeper understanding of the greatest soldier of our time than ever before.
Broadwell embedded with the commander and his subordinates on the front lines of fighting and at the epicenter of the strategic command in Afghanistan to chronicle the education of this American general as it is brought to bear in the terrible crucible of war. "All In" uses hundreds of hours of exclusive interviews with Petraeus and his top officers and soldiers to tell the inside story of this commander's war from every vantage point, with particular emphasis on viewing the war through Petraeus's eyes.
When Petraeus assumed command in Afghanistan in July 2010, the conflict looked as bleak as at any moment in America's nine years on the ground there. Petraeus's defining idea- counterinsurgency-was immediately put to its most difficult test: the hard lessons learned during the surge in Iraq were to be applied in a radically different theater. "All In" traces the origins and applications in Afghanistan of the principles of counterinsurgency through the commands of Lieutenant Colonel David Fivecoat, Petraeus's aide in Bosnia and during the invasion of Iraq, and that of other officers who have served with him over the years. Broadwell also examines Petraeus's evolution as a counterinsurgent from his education at West Point in the wake of Vietnam to his earlier service in El Salvador and Iraq.
In this exclusive-access account, Broadwell ultimately appraises Petraeus's impact on the entire U.S. military: thanks to this most remarkable soldier, war in the near future will be fought as a complex blend of offense, defense, counterterrorism, counterinsurgency, and interagency intelligence operations. As he leaves Afghanistan for his new post at the CIA, Petraeus's theory of warfare will redefine our military and our intelligence community for decades to come.
