What is Local Purchasing
 
Local purchasing is a preference to buy locally produced goods and services rather than those produced farther away. It is very often abbreviated as a positive goal, "buy local" or "buy locally', that parallels the phrase "think globally, act locally", common in green politics.

    Lawfare - Law as a Weapon of War

    In this book, author Orde Kittrie draws on his experiences as a lawfare practitioner, US State Department attorney, and international law scholar in analyzing the theory and practice of lawfare. Kittrie explains how factors including the increased reach of international laws and tribunals and the rise of economic globalization and information technology have fueled lawfare's increasing power and prevalence. The book includes case studies of recent offensive and defensive lawfare by the United States, China, all sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and several non-governmental organizations and individuals. Kittrie asserts that much of the United States' most effective and creative lawfare today is being waged by private sector or other non-governmental attorneys. He analyzes why this is the case, and describes how such attorneys' expertise and experience can contribute even more to US national security. Kittrie also explains that lawfare, deployed more systematically and adeptly by the US government, could likely reduce US and foreign casualties, and save US taxpayer dollars, by supplementing or replacing the use of armed force as a tool for achieving some significant US national security objectives. Understanding this alternative to armed force has never been more important.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    In "Mindset: The New Psychology of Success," Carol S. Dweck explores the power of our mindset—our beliefs about our abilities—in shaping our lives. The book delves into the contrast between two mindsets: the fixed mindset, where individuals believe their abilities are innate and unchangeable, and the growth mindset, where individuals believe their abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work. Dweck argues that embracing a growth mindset is essential for achieving success in all areas of life, from academics and sports to business and relationships. She provides compelling examples and research to illustrate how a growth mindset can foster resilience, perseverance, and a love of learning. The book offers insights into how mindsets are formed, how they influence our behavior, and how we can cultivate a growth mindset to unlock our potential.

    He gets pleased if we offer Durva grass to him. He also loves red Hibiscus flower. He is called the vighnaharta because he wards off all the obstacles in our life. He is also called vighnaraja. There are infinite names to Lord Ganesh which we cannot explain. He ties a snake around his waist.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    "Prince of Thorns" by Mark Lawrence follows the journey of Jorg Ancrath, a young prince who evolves into a ruthless leader in a morally ambiguous world. The narrative explores themes of power, revenge, and the corrupting nature of violence. After experiencing trauma, Jorg seeks to assert his dominance and reclaim what he feels is his by any means necessary. The book depicts a world filled with political intrigue, where loyalty is conditional, and family bonds are often broken. Jorg’s actions showcase his capacity for both strategic planning and extreme violence, and the story questions how far a man will go to achieve his goals. The inclusion of elements from science fiction and the supernatural, like ancient technology and a mystical spirit, add further layers of complexity.

    If you grew up before the neurodiversity movement, chances are you were taught at an early age that your autistic traits were "wrong" or "bad." Whether it was stimming, difficulties with making small talk, avoiding eye contact, sensitivities to loud sounds or certain textures, or even talking passionately about the things you care about—somewhere along the way you learned to mask these aspects of yourself to better fit in, avoid bullying from other kids, and in some cases to even gain the love of your own parents. The problem is that, over time, masking can lead to higher levels of stress, burnout, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and depression. So how can you be your authentic self and still succeed and thrive in a neurotypical world? 
     
     
     
    Written by a therapist who is actually autistic, this neurodiversity-affirming workbook offers skills to help you cultivate self-acceptance, manage intense emotions, and be your own advocate when needed. You'll take a good look at the situations or people that caused you to mask in the first place. 
     
     
      
    You don't have to mask, hide, or camouflage any longer. Let this workbook guide you on a journey of self-discovery and acceptance. You are worthy of it. And you deserve it.
