pokkari
A Positive View of LGBTQ starts a new conversation about the strengths and benefits of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGTBQ) identities. Positive LGBTQ identities are affirmed through inspiring firsthand accounts. Focusing on how LGTBQ-identified individuals can cultivate a sense of wellbeing and a personal identity that allows them to flourish in all areas of life, the authors explore a variety of themes. Through personal stories from people with a variety of backgrounds and gender and sexual identities, readers will learn more about expressing gender and sexuality; creating strong and intimate relationships; exploring unique perspectives on empathy, compassion, and social justice; belonging to communities and acting as role models and mentors; and, enjoying the benefits of living an authentic life. Providing exercises in each chapter, the book offers those who identify as LGBTQ and those who support and love them, as well as those seeking to better understand them, an opportunity to explore and appreciate these identities.

Attention troublemakers, parents of troublemakers, and everyone who embraces a rebellious spirit This captivating narrative is dedicated to you. In the heart of Reston, Virginia, an openly integrated community established amidst the civil rights movement, Ellen's coming-of-age journey unfolds against the backdrop of societal change. With vivid detail and emotional depth, Ellen chronicles a blissful childhood that comes to an abrupt end when her parents divorce. A self-proclaimed troublemaker, Ellen becomes the voice of dissent within her hometown, responding to perceived injustices and seeking attention with acts of rebellion - shoplifting, drinking, and fighting. Yet beneath the seemingly defiant exterior lies a soul yearning for belonging and grappling with the complexities of life. As Ellen navigates the fallout of her parents' divorce, facing isolation and rejection, an unexpected friendship with Bahija becomes her lifeline. United as outsiders battling their own conflicts, the bond between Ellen and Bahija becomes a source of solidarity and empowerment. Ellen discovers the strength to stand up against bullying. As the humorous narrative unfolds, the reader is taken on a riveting journey through Ellen's formative years, with a front-row seat to the struggles of adolescence, the quest for identity, and the desire for independence. Brimming with irony and profound insights, this compelling memoir is a celebration of inclusion, resilience, and the unbreakable bonds forged through shared experiences. Each escapade, whether uproariously funny or deeply painful, serves as a testament to the enduring power of genuine connections and the impact of standing up for what is right. Ellen's story is a reminder that we are all a work in progress, each with a fighter within waiting to be unleashed. Along with poignant reflection, Ellen shows us that laughter can be a potent tool for growth, and sometimes the most judicious lessons are hidden beneath the surface of a good underwear joke.

Between 1914 and 1950, Ellen Shipman (1869–1950) designed more than 600 gardens in the United States, from Long Island's Gold Coast to the state of Washington. Her secluded, lush formal gardens attracted a clientele that included Fords, Edisons, Astors, and du Ponts. Shipman’s imaginative approach merged elements of the Colonial Revival and Arts and Crafts movements with a unique planting style enlivened by Impressionistic washes of color.In Ellen Shipman and the American Garden author Judith B. Tankard describes Shipman’s remarkable life and discusses her major works, including the Cummer Museum of Art and Gardens in Jacksonville, Florida; Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens in Akron, Ohio; Longue Vue House and Gardens in New Orleans, and Sarah P. Duke Gardens at Duke University. Richly illustrated with plans and photographs, the book explores Shipman’s ability to create intimate spaces through dense plantings, evocative water features, and classical ornament. Tankard also examines Shipman's unusual life, which was enriched by her years in the artists' colony of Cornish, New Hampshire, and her association with the architect Charles A. Platt. Shipman was notable for establishing a thriving New York City practice and mentoring women in the profession. Many of the assistants she trained in her all-female office went on to become successful designers in other parts of the country.

"Arj, Tove!" sagde jeg, "har du jord i hovedet eller hvad? vi kan blive de sejeste tøser i den nye klasse. Dig, mig, Betty og Ingrid. Hvis vi vil. Og hvis vi starter med det samme." Der er ingen tid at spilde, hvis Betty, Ingrid, Tove og Zille skal nå at blive superseje, inden skolen starter igen efter sommerferien. Især ikke når man tænker på, hvor håbløse deres "superevner" er …

”Har I pølsehorn?” Anders lænede sig op ad boden, så den knagede. ”Nej, og vi har heller ikke følehorn,” sagde Betty. ”Men du kan få tre rødkålsmuffins for en 10’er.” Betty, Tove, Ingrid og Zille er mere end klar til at starte i den nye 7. klasse efter ferien. De har store planer om at sætte standarden i kageboden, i gymnastik og ikke mindst til Celeste-Roses bondefødselsdag på bøhlandet. Hvor svært kan det være for fire seje B.I.T.Z.-piger, der lige har opfundet Den nye Stil?

"Stå stille, Zille, " råbte Tove. Men for sent. Alle køerne satte i galop, og med en flok vilde, brølende, hornbefængte udyr i hælene løb vi hylende over marken og endte ... midt i Neder Skodby. De fire B.I.T.Z-piger har glædet sig til at være storbyseje på lejrskolen i Malmø, men i stedet havner de på en bondegård i Jylland - med rundbold, ridning, vilde dyr og andre ubehageligheder. Noget må gøres, hvis De seje tøsers klub skal redde æren, og så er det jo heldigt, at der er spøgelser på høloftet ...
Grit: The No B.S. mentality on how to become a Grind Animal, Hack your Powers within and build Supreme Confidence
This book is about, providing you with guidelines in the proceeding chapters that can help you develop a GRIT mentality to achieve the goals you are trying to accomplish. It is a handy tool that is targeted to all audiences, especially those who are not blessed with an obvious talent for something but can still find a way to outwork, outsmart, and outperform those who do have talent and academical intelligence. Furthermore, not coming from a position of wealth or privilege can often be an advantage; you do not have the luxury of becoming complacent, which can be critical in hindering the ability to build courage and confidence as you work towards your goal. This book is about how to muster the bravery to begin your journey. Lao Tzu once said, "The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step". That is what this book is designed to do, help you gain the courage to take that first step, and then guide you towards the subsequent steps that follow through to the path of your accomplishments. The fear of failure before even trying can sometimes be the most difficult obstacle to overcome. This book continues to talk about how to enact change in your life. This is one of the most important parts of having the motivation to do something, to actually make a change. As human beings, most of us are creatures of habit and changing things can be uncomfortable. I will guide you through the process and make it as doable and comfortable as possible. This book also equips you with motivational tools to ensure that you remain focused and never give in to the temptation of quitting. Once you have set your goals and begin your journey, it can be very difficult to stay on that path. This is especially true for those of you who have long-term goals which require multiple steps to get there. As a goal takes longer to achieve it can become even more difficult to keep your eyes on the prize. This book will help you through the longest, most difficult and most fearful aspect of achieving your heart's desire, and will navigate you through the process. Thank you for choosing this book, I sincerely hope that it helps you to build the Grit mentality you will need to accomplish the things you have always been longing for. Congratulations
