  Cornerstone at the Confluence -...

  Jason A. Robison

  Signed on November 24, 1922, the Colorado River Compact is body of laws colloquially called the "Law of the River" that governs how human beings use water from the river system dubbed the "American Nile." No fewer than forty million people have come to rely on the Colorado River system in modern times—a system immersed in an unprecedented, unrelenting megadrought for more than two decades. Attempting to navigate this "new normal," policymakers are negotiating new management rules for the river system, a process coinciding with the compact's centennial that must be completed by 2026. 
   
   
   
  Animated by this remarkable confluence of events, Cornerstone at the Confluence leverages the centennial year to reflect on the compact and broader "Law of the River" to envision the future. It is a volume inviting dialogue about how the river system's flows should be apportioned given climate change, what should be done about environmental issues such as ecosystem restoration and biodiversity protection, and how long-standing issues of water justice facing Native American communities should be addressed. 
   
   
   
  These topics touch on the concept of "equity" embedded within the compact—a concept that tees up what is perhaps the foundational question confronted by Cornerstone at the Confluence: Who should have a seat at the table of Colorado River governance?

  California Sober 2.0 
  Stop Numbing Yourself with Alcohol and Start Expanding Your Mind with Science. 
  Are you tired of the hangovers, the brain fog, and the toxicity of alcohol? Are you curious about the "California Sober" lifestyle? But when you look at alternatives (cannabis edibles, magic mushrooms, kratom) you see chaos, horror stories, and bad trips. 
  This is not just a book. It is your flight manual. 
  Ernst-Marcus Thomas, a psychologist with a master's degree from the University of Munich, Germany, and former skeptic, takes you on a journey from the canals of Amsterdam to the frontiers of bio-hacking. He dismantles the myths of the "stoner" culture and replaces them with science for the modern psychonaut. 
  Inside, you will discover:The "California Sober" Blueprint: How to quit alcohol and replace it with a sustainable, euphoric, and non-toxic routine using nature's most powerful compounds.The Science of the "Edible High": Why eating cannabis creates a completely different, way more potent molecule than smoking, and how to use it to achieve a state of "Enhanced Lucidity".Psilocybin & Neurogenesis: Learn why experts call mushrooms the "Einstein Molecule." Discover how to use them to break addiction loops (the "Ski Slope" method) and regrow brain cells. 
  Most books on psychedelics are either too mystical or "scientifically dry". This guide combines the warm, personal storytelling of a mentor with the precise analysis of a German psychologist. 
  Important Medical and Legal Notice:

  The Lies of the Land - Seeing...

  A "piercing, unsentimental" (New Yorker) history that boldly challenges the idea of a rural American crisis. 
   
   
    
  It seems everyone has an opinion about rural America. Is it gripped in a tragic decline? Or is it on the cusp of a glorious revival? Is it the key to understanding America today? Steven Conn argues that we're missing the real question: Is rural America even a thing? No, says Conn, who believes we see only what we want to see in the lands beyond the suburbs—fantasies about moral (or backward) communities, simpler (or repressive) living, and what it means to be authentically (or wrongheadedly) American. If we want to build a better future, Conn argues, we must accept that these visions don't exist and never did. 
   
   
   
  In The Lies of the Land, Conn shows that rural America—so often characterized as in crisis or in danger of being left behind—has actually been at the center of modern American history, shaped by the same forces as everywhere else in the country: militarization, industrialization, corporatization, and suburbanization. Examining each of these forces in turn, Conn invites us to dispense with the lies and half-truths we've believed about rural America and to pursue better solutions to the very real challenges shared all across our nation.

  Guaranteed to give the reader a deeper understanding of America’s most powerful judicial body, John Yoo, professor of law at UC Berkeley, and Robert Delahunty, professor of law at the University of St. Thomas detail in sprightly, slightly irreverent manner how the black robed judges who make up the U.S. Supreme Court have swung like a pendulum from saviors of the Republic to super-legislators who usurp the roll of Congress and dictate law from the bench, back to defenders of the Constitution again—or at least for the moment.
