Left Coast visitors to California, beware. When making your next trip, be sure to carry water (but not in a plastic bottle), bring plenty of batteries to keep the lights on (thanks to forecast blackouts from renewable energy mandates), and stay away from bureaucrats who want to ban practically all you have and tax your money away. Policymakers have transformed California from a land of opportunity and prosperity for all into a real-life horror film where freedom and liberty is being choked by state government. Politicians including California's Kamala Harris are being inspired by what Gov. Gavin Newsom calls "The California Way" to promote these bad ideas from coast to coast.The California Left Coast Survivor's Guide from the Pacific Research Institute gives readers the facts and knowhow needed to stop California ideology from taking root nationwide. Inspired by the handbooks that have prepared eager adventurers for years, the book provides lessons on how to survive the progressive wilderness creeping in from California. Readers will learn how to avoid Left Coast mistakes in their states and instead follow the path to prosperity through lower taxes, entrepreneurship, less government red tape, and greater opportunity for all.

In San Diego, not far from the gates of the fantasy world of Disneyland, tent cities lining the freeways remind us of an ugly reality. Homeless individuals are slowing rail traffic between Sacramento and the Bay Area and swarming subway trains in Los Angeles in search of a place to sleep when they’re not languishing on Skid Row. Drug use among the homeless is plaguing communities, with discarded needles threatening children playing at public parks. And every day across California, thousands of homeless youth who lack safe and stable housing struggle to stay in school, to perform well academically, and to form meaningful connections with their teachers and peers.Since the 1980s, countless research studies have been published on the topic of homelessness in America. Too often, however, social science research on homelessness is narrow in scope, mired in politics, and reliant on questionable assumptions about the root causes of the problem. The severity of the homeless crises afflicting cities requires innovative solutions backed by credible data and objective research. This book examines the causes of homelessness with a focus on unaffordable housing, poverty, mental illness, substance addiction, and legal reform. It examines the state and local policy environment to determine ways in which housing policy, social service programs, and employment opportunities interact to exacerbate, perpetuate, or reduce homelessness. The book also evaluates different strategies being used at the state, county, and local levels to prevent or reduce homelessness. Finally, the authors provide a mix of long-term policy solutions based on their findings that have the greatest potential to reduce homelessness.

Abuse of the Innocent, investigates horrific first-hand accounts of abuse. Told in the graphic style of a gripping novel which concludes the KAL trilogy: a three-part adventure of suffering and recovery from modern megalomania. Emily Jackson; twenty-seven, tenacious and sometimes arrogant attends a psychedelic party to honour Kal's retirement. She stumbles onto appalling and harrowing accounts of abuse, retold by several recovering victims. Walking back into their past, Emily enters the circle of their distorted minds, inhaling the fear that chased them and feeling the guilt which embraced them for years. Incensed at the discovery, Emily investigates to expose stories of violation and physical harm, emotional torture and spiritual destruction. She discovers acts of commission and omission, often wielded by the hands of men the victims trusted. She unwraps the exploitation which resulted in actual harm to the health and survival of hundreds of youths; reveals the shattered development and broken dignity of children and adults by those in positions of responsibility, trust or power. It's the final part of the world surrounding Kal Saldana. Horrified by the actions of men he once stood alongside, Kal introduces the unshakable investigator, to unveil the Abuse of the Innocent. The intrepid TV journalist whilst tackling this emotional upheaval is challenged to face her own sexuality and personal nemesis. "You don't have to believe this account after all, you weren't there. But I was and trust me, I don't lie." Emily Jackson

This book is the first to provide an account of the life of Rev. William Arderne Shoults (1839-1887) and his book collecting. It is also the first detailed examination of a true survivor, his book collection of some 5600 items, including medieval manuscripts, incunables, books on ecclesiastical history and primitive church rites and rituals, philology, bibliography, science, travel, and Arabic and Persian texts. The contents cover Shoults's early years at St. John's College, Cambridge University, his work in some of the poorer ritualistic parishes of London, his association with the Rev. Joseph Leycester Lyne (1837-1908), the controversial, enthusiastic, revivalist known as 'Father Ignatius', his work on Latin hymns, his marriage, and his travel overseas, which included visiting the Vatican Library. After Shoults's death at 48, his collection was gifted to Selwyn College, Dunedin, arriving in New Zealand in 1893. The survival of this collection is remarkable and it exists as a fine example of what a nineteenth-century curate could collect.
