    Donald Trump and the Republican party misunderstand and miscalculate the conditions of the poor. Since poverty destroys everything that psychologically and physically makes a person whole, it induces impoverished individuals to commit crimes. President Donald Trump and the Republican party, have reduced food benefits for poor Americans, and want to cut social security benefits and health care for poor people while ignoring safe restrictions for our water and environment. The poor condition of people the world over should arouse the conscience of governments to pay more attention to the poor and homeless people of this great nation. This book is not to criticize or point fingers; however, it mainly corroborates the lives of people who are sadly ignored as many of us waste money on vices that poor Americans can use. Now that the United States Supreme Court has decided that homeless people can no sleep on the streets or in parks, it strains their resolve to live from day to day.

    A Sudden Clash of Thunder -...

    According to Osho, laughter is "the very essence of Zen". And while the theme of these talks is that meditation - watching, remaining alert and aware - is the path to self-realization, Osho encourages us first to "be happy, and meditation will follow".
    Through Zen stories, jokes and answers to questions, Osho highlights our conditioning - our learned social and cultural behavior and beliefs - as the barrier to our natural state of happiness.
    Wielding his words like a humorous, compassionate Zen stick, Osho shows us how we can begin to recognize our conditioning and see that it is not the same as our authentic self.
    "This is the whole effort of all the masters: to create a sudden clash of thunder so those who are fast asleep can be awakened." (Osho)

  • Four Thousand Hooks - A True Story of Fishing and Coming of Age on the High Seas of Alaska - cover

    Four Thousand Hooks - A True...

    As Four Thousand Hooks opens, an Alaskan fishing schooner is sinking. It is the summer of 1972, and the sixteen-year-old narrator is at the helm. Backtracking from the gripping prologue, Dean Adams describes how he came to be a crew member on the Grant and weaves a tale of adventure that is like a novel—with drama, conflict, and resonant portrayals of halibut fishing, his ragtag shipmates, maritime Alaska, and the ambiguities of family life. 
     
     
     
    At sea, the Grant's crew teach Dean the daily tasks of baiting thousands of longline hooks and handling the catch, and on shore they lead him through the seedy bars and guilty pleasures of Kodiak. Exhausted by twenty-hour workdays and awed by the ocean's raw power, he observes examples of human courage and vulnerability and emerges with a deeper knowledge of himself and the world. 
     
     
     
    Four Thousand Hooks is both an absorbing adventure story and a rich ethnography of a way of life and work that has sustained Northwest families for generations. This coming of age story will appeal to listeners including young adults and anyone interested in ocean adventures, commercial fishing, maritime life, and the Northwest coast.
