The best how-to thinking about raising kids with good character is collected in this toolkit. It is designed for parents, teachers, administrators, coaches, counselors and all youth organizations. Character is less taught than it is learned by experience. This toolkit lists the kinds of experience that best benefits kids, provides checklists and surveys to identify what is available and how it is working and provides a full list of resources. If you have kids or work with kids and want to support and improve their character development, this is a great place to start. The core of this toolkit are the nine surveys/checklists that evaluate all character building elements of an organization.

WHO WOULD TURN DOWN HEAVEN?Say "hello" to the recently deceased Michael Greyson, a good man, a likable man. He lived a moderately long and honorable life, and he just arrived in Heaven. Problem is Mike dumped religion completely in his forties. God didn't exist. Heaven didn't exist. There was nothing after death. Being in heaven was a mistake or a cruel joke by a mean-spirited god. For Mike, life was its own reward. Death should be the end. Heaven didn't feel right. My First Ten Days in Heaven is a thoughtful, feel-good story of the joys and sorrows of living and is in the same tone as A Man called Ove and The 100 Year Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared.

The technical details of British warships were recorded in a set of plans produced by the builders on completion of every ship. Known as the as fitted general arrangements, these drawings documented the exact appearance and fitting of the ship as it entered service. They were very large more than 12 feet long for capital ships highly detailed, annotated and labelled, and drawn with exquisite skill in multi-coloured inks and washes. Intended to provide a permanent reference for the Admiralty and the dockyards, they represent the acme of the draughtsman s art. Today these plans form part of the incomparable collection of the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich, which is using the latest scanning technology to make digital copies of the highest quality. This book is the first of a series based entirely on these draughts which will depict famous warships in an unprecedented degree of detail complete sets in full colour, with many close-ups and enlargements that make every aspect clear and comprehensible. Extensive captions point the reader to important features to be found in the plans, and an introduction covers the background to the design. The celebrated battleship _Warspite_ is an ideal introduction to this new series an apparently familiar subject, but given this treatment the result is an anatomy that will fascinate every warship enthusiast and ship modeller.

Cael Adler is a private detective with an eye for detail and a steady knack for solving complex cases.

But worse follows, when it becomes apparent that the murder is just the beginning of something much bigger and that a pitiless serial killer is at large. As the two men begin to unravel the horrific crimes they close in on the predator and his ruthless agenda. But all is not as it seems, and the case soon becomes more personal for Tyler, when his wife becomes the next target of the madman. Lured to a theater on the pretext of attending a show, Samantha Easton comes face to face with the killer and it's up to Cael and Tyler to stop him. But will they solve the clues fast enough to save her from a horrific end?

According to their critics, social scientists rarely ask the right questions and cannot provide satisfactory answers even to the questions they ask themselves. Social scientists often discuss the nature of knowledge in their fields with a notable lack of clarity. Explanation and Experience in Social Science by Robert Brown dispels the confusion with cogency and wit; it is a systematic, sensible, and lucid analysis of the nature of the explanations put forward by social scientists.Explanation-making is first distinguished from "describing" and "reporting," and then classified into different types, based on different kinds of information used. The greater part of the book consists in discussion and examination of these types of explanation and their relationships, in which the usefulness and limitations of each are assessed. An extraordinary variety of examples from contemporary work in all the social sciences is used, including the fields of sociology, anthropology, psychology, history, demography, political science. and economics. The author makes it clear that good social explanation is possible and that it conforms to the requirements of all good scientific explanation.Explanation and Experience in Social Science is of interest to the practicing scientist--in fact--it is a must-have for any personal or public library with collections in the social sciences. Most studies in the philosophy of the sciences, natural and social, fall into two distinct groups: those written by philosophers for other philosophers and those produced by scientists for their fellow-scientists. The aim of this book is to discuss questions of philosophical interest as they come to be imbedded in the work of social scientists.
