Interviews with the Founders by Justin American Pdf
Today is the day that you finally answer that nagging question: things don't seem to be going so well in America - what was the original intent for American politics, economics, religion, and patriotism? Via the format of a modern, journalistic interview, the Founding Fathers' exact words on these subjects spring back to life to remind Americans, to warn Americans, and to admonish Americans, about the dangers of straying too far away from the Founders' original game plan on the quest for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. "A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government." Thomas Jefferson "If Congress can apply money indefinitely to the general welfare, and are the sole and supreme judges of the general welfare... everything, from the highest object of State legislation, down to the most minute object of police, would be thrown under the power of Congress." James Madison "The Constitution is not a living organism for Pete's sake. It's a law. It means what it meant when it was adopted." Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia "The great privilege of the Americans does not simply consist in their being more enlightened than other nations, but in their being able to repair the faults they may commit." Alexis de Tocqueville Ten percent of any pro ts from this book will be given to charitable organizations, with a focus on local and veteran oriented charities.
Digital Preservation and Documentation of Global Indigenous Knowledge Systems by Masenya, Tlou Maggie Pdf
Indigenous knowledge is regarded as undocumented cultural, local, traditional, and community knowledge produced and owned by local people in their specific communities. It is mainly preserved in the memories of elders and shared or passed on from generation to generation through oral communication, traditional practices, and demonstrations. This irreplaceable resource may be lost forever as a direct result of the pressures of modernization, colonization, and globalization. Concern over the loss of Indigenous knowledge has thus raised a need for the preservation and documentation of this knowledge in digital formats. Digital Preservation and Documentation of Global Indigenous Knowledge Systems determines how Indigenous knowledge can be documented and digitally preserved to benefit Indigenous knowledge owners and their communities and be accessible for future generations. The book provides the best practices, innovative strategies, theoretical and conceptual frameworks, and empirical research findings regarding the digital preservation and documentation of Indigenous knowledge systems worldwide. Covering topics such as digital media platforms, educational management, and knowledge systems, this premier reference source is a valuable and useful tool for students, information professionals, knowledge managers, records managers, Indigenous knowledge owners, Indigenous community leaders, librarians, archivists, computer scientists, information technology specialists, students and educators of higher education, researchers, and academicians.

The most comprehensive and authoritative dictionary of Buddhism ever produced in English With more than 5,000 entries totaling over a million words, this is the most comprehensive and authoritative dictionary of Buddhism ever produced in English. It is also the first to cover terms from all of the canonical Buddhist languages and traditions: Sanskrit, Pali, Tibetan, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.

The main entries offer both a brief definition and a substantial short essay on the broader meaning and significance of the term covered. Extensive cross-references allow readers to find related terms and concepts. An appendix of Buddhist lists (for example, the four noble truths and the thirty-two marks of the Buddha), a timeline, six maps, and two diagrams are also included. Written and edited by two of today's most eminent scholars of Buddhism, and more than a decade in the making, this landmark work is an essential reference for every student, scholar, or practitioner of Buddhism and for anyone else interested in Asian religion, history, or philosophy.
