Download or read book Peace Out written by Danielle Wilson and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peace Out! is an honest, often hilarious, look at modern motherhood. In this collection of her favorite published newspaper columns since 2007, Danielle Wilson takes on the joys of not being pregnant, the nastiness of potty training, vasectomies, hemorrhoids, B.O., and even the experience of plastic surgery. With four young children and one bald husband, Danielle has plenty of personal fodder with which to work, and is never shy about sharing her misadventures. Her frank style has offended many a suburbanite, including but not limited to Breastfeeding Nazi's, Homeschooling Families, Devout Christians, Volun-terrorists, Non-Spanking Parents, Republicans, and Women Who Live in the Land of Make Believe, ands she receives hate mail on a regular basis. But Danielle's "keepin' it real" motto has also endeared her to stay-at-home and working moms alike, who are tired of hearing about honor roll students and blissfully happy marriages. "Motherhood and marriage suck sometimes, and to pretend that we never want to chuck out the diarrhea-plagued toddler or shave off the snoring spouse's eyebrow is not healthy. Until women start speaking openly about their issues and recognizing that life with kids and husbands isn't always perfect, we will continue to have beautifully coiffed supermoms who are so hopped up on Lexipro and Botox, they can't even laugh when little Suzy drops an F-bomb at bible study." So if you're tired of feeling alone, need validation as a wife and a mom, or just want to laugh so hard you pee yourself, Peace Out! is for you. DANIELLE WILSON Danielle lives in Carmel, Indiana, with her bald husband and four children, and teaches math and social studies at a never-to-be-disclosed high school in Indianapolis. She enjoys B-grade sci-fi movies, YA fiction, butter, and cold beer, and dreams of one day becoming either a labor and delivery nurse or a hair stylist. She prays for peace on Earth, an end to poverty, and world domination by redheads.

Download or read book Bleeding Out written by Thomas Abt and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a Harvard scholar and former Obama official, a powerful proposal for curtailing violent crime in America Urban violence is one of the most divisive and allegedly intractable issues of our time. But as Harvard scholar Thomas Abt shows in Bleeding Out, we actually possess all the tools necessary to stem violence in our cities. Coupling the latest social science with firsthand experience as a crime-fighter, Abt proposes a relentless focus on violence itself -- not drugs, gangs, or guns. Because violence is "sticky," clustering among small groups of people and places, it can be predicted and prevented using a series of smart-on-crime strategies that do not require new laws or big budgets. Bringing these strategies together, Abt offers a concrete, cost-effective plan to reduce homicides by over 50 percent in eight years, saving more than 12,000 lives nationally. Violence acts as a linchpin for urban poverty, so curbing such crime can unlock the untapped potential of our cities' most disadvantaged communities and help us to bridge the nation's larger economic and social divides. Urgent yet hopeful, Bleeding Out offers practical solutions to the national emergency of urban violence -- and challenges readers to demand action.

Book excerpt: A stunning, thought-provoking look at finding peace in children's lives. Peace is a familiar word, its meaning both simple and complex. Here, Wallace Edwards explores peace and invites young readers to think about what that means to them. Through a series of linked questions combined with Edwards's singular art, the concept of peace is picked up, shaken, turned all around, and carefully examined from every angle.

What Is Peace? engages readers to think about peace in their day-to-day lives, and around the world.
