  Essays: First Series Friendship

  Ralph Waldo Emerson

  A true friend is a paradox—both a mirror and a mystery, a presence that steadies yet unsettles. Emerson's Friendship is not a sentimental tribute but an exploration, as sharp as it is reverent. He does not merely celebrate companionship; he dissects it, questioning the forces that draw souls together and the invisible tensions that hold them apart.
  Friendship, in Emerson's vision, is not mere comfort—it is a force, a demand, a test. It requires space as much as closeness, silence as much as words. It thrives not in constant nearness but in the charged air of mutual respect, in the quiet certainty that the bond endures, even when distance stretches between.
  His words do not ask for easy agreement; they provoke. He suggests that the highest friendships are not found but forged, not effortless but exacting. The reader who enters Friendship expecting warmth may find, instead, a bracing clarity—a recognition that true companionship is both a gift and a discipline, an art as much as an affection. Emerson does not offer a guide to making friends; he offers something rarer: an insight into why, despite all risks, we seek them still.

  Mexican History - Facts about...

  Kelly Mass

  This combo consists of 2 books: 
  1 - Emiliano Zapata Salazar was a revolutionary in Mexico. He was a key figure in the Mexican Revolt of the years 1910 until 1920, and also the primary leader of the people's revolution in the Mexican state of Morelos and the creator of the Zapatismo agrarian movement. Zapata was born in the rural town of Anenecuilco in the state of Morelos, at the time of a period when peasant communities dealt with increasing pressure from the small-landowning class, which monopolized land and water resources for sugar-cane production with the support of totalitarian Porfirio Daz (President from the year 1877 to 1880 and from 1884 to 1911). Zapata was associated with political efforts against Daz and the landowning hacendados from an early age, and when the Revolution emerged in the year 1910, he was placed as a key figure in the peasant insurgence in Morelos. He established the Freedom Army of the South with the help of certain other peasant leaders, and he rapidly rose to become its undisputed head. 
  2 - The cult image, female divine being, and folk saint Nuestra Seora de la Santa Muerte (Spanish meaning: Our Woman of the Holy Death) is a cult image, female divine being, and folk saint in Mexican Neopaganism and folk Catholicism. Her worshippers relate her with healing, security, and safe delivery to the afterlife simply because she's a personification of death. In spite of condemnation from Catholic Church leaders and, more just recently, evangelical movements, her following has grown substantially since the start of the twenty-first century. Santa Muerte, who was initially portrayed as a male character, is now generally illustrated as a skeletal female figure dressed in a long cape and clutching several things, most typically a scythe and a world.

  In April 1945, German troops withdrawing from the Seelow Heights were encircled by the Soviet Army near the small town of Halbe, south-east of Berlin. Rather than surrender, their orders were to attempt to break out, westward, and join up with the German twelfth Army. A brutal battle ensued, with an estimated 30,000 German and 20,000 Russian soldiers killed, along with thousands of civilians. 
   
   
   
  This collection of first-hand accounts tells the story of the battle and its aftermath from the German perspective. It is an eclectic mix, containing the recollections of ordinary soldiers, SS-men and men of the Panzer Divisions, as well as civilians caught up in the battle as they attempted to flee ahead of the advancing armies. It brings to life the grim realities of this one-sided engagement, revealing the brutal vengeance of the Soviets and the desperation to escape the slaughter. 
   
   
   
  Translated into English for the first time, this is an important insight into this devastating and little-known aspect of World War II history.

  This book contains two titles, which are the following: 
  1 - The key processes in the criminal justice system are investigation, arrest, prosecution, pretrial, trial, sentencing, corrections, and reentry. Investigation involves law enforcement investigating a crime, gathering evidence, and identifying suspects. Arrest involves taking suspects into custody based on probable cause. Prosecution involves prosecutors reviewing evidence, deciding on charges, and filing them in court. Pretrial includes bail hearings, plea bargaining, and preliminary hearings. Trial is a court proceeding to determine the guilt or innocence of the accused, including opening statements, witness testimonies, and closing arguments. Sentencing involves a judge determining the sentence for a convicted offender. Corrections involve offenders serving their sentences in correctional facilities or through community-based programs. Reentry involves programs to help former inmates reintegrate into society, aiming to reduce recidivism. 
  2 - Social justice has a rich and complex history, shaped by numerous social, political, and economic movements over centuries. Its roots can be traced back to the Enlightenment era, where philosophers like John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau introduced ideas of equality, individual rights, and the social contract. These concepts laid the groundwork for future social justice movements by emphasizing the inherent rights and dignity of every individual.

  On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy made a speech to the Fort Worth, Texas, Chamber of Commerce; he was assassinated later that afternoon. Kennedy had traveled to the state to unite Texas Democrats where party leaders were feuding and extremists were contributing to political tensions. Kennedy knew an intra-party feud in Texas could jeopardize his chances of carrying the state for his 1964 re-election campaign.
