Core Concepts in Colonoscopy covers all aspects of diagnostic and therapeutic colonoscopy, emphasizing overarching concepts that gastroenterology fellows and physicians must know to achieve success in both the technical and cognitive aspects of the procedure. In this comprehensive resource, Dr. Douglas G. Adler and his contributors provides a straightforward and practical review of colonoscopy. Core Concepts in Colonoscopy aims to address and convey the core concepts of colonoscopy: from the structure and function of the colonoscope itself, to insertion techniques, loop formation and reduction, polypectomy techniques for any situation, the avoidance and management of perforations and other adverse events, as well as advanced techniques including (but not limited to) endoscopic mucosal resection and colonic stenting. Each chapter inside Core Concepts in Colonoscopy is lavishly illustrated with multiple key images to accentuate and enhance the written text, as well as a plethora of tips, tricks, and accumulated points of wisdom in each chapter on all facets of colonoscopy. Additional Website Component! Core Concepts in Colonoscopy is accompanied by a video website with specific videos connected to individual chapters that will illustrate basic and advanced colonoscopic techniques from many leading experts and will further enhance the learning process. The addition of the video website allows for a more robust learning experience and allows the reader to watch, listen, view repeatedly, and reinforces the techniques presented in the written text. GI fellows, junior gastroenterologists, and even advanced physicians will appreciate Core Concepts in Colonoscopy because of the user-friendly and efficient structure that allows for the material to be quickly read, as well as easily absorb the wealth of key practical knowledge found inside.
they belong. Do communities have rights, indeed even an existence, which are not merely the hypostasis of the individual rights and existences collected in them? This conflict is then more striking as it was a conscious decision of the or ganizers of the workshop to focus attention on what might broadly be called liberal democracies: those societies which share a commitment to the princi ples of democratic participation, to the right of equal concern and respect of all members of the community, and to the basic liberties of association, ex pression, and thought. Ours was not the smug premise, however, that every so ciety which proclaims these principles is sufficiently or even truly devoted to them. But we did assume that we would have enough to do if we explored the implications of these widely shared ideals for the topic of linguistic, ethnic, and national minorities as these problems arise in societies where an appeal to them is not an empty gesture. The nations from which our participants were drawn are societies in which appeal to these principles has some point. They are all societies in which the efforts of politicians and the intelligence of schol ars need not be devoted exclusively to the tactical issues of winning some mod icum of respect for basic human rights from unwilling regimes. And yet all these societies have experienced significant difficulty in determining what the concrete meaning in actual situations of these general principles might be."
Fourteen-year-old Kelly doesn't understand why she has been shipped off to stay with her rigid grandparents in Florida. And why does her mother have to stay up north in the hospital and her grandmother refuses to answer her questions?

Is it her fault that her darling mother has had a mental breakdown? And do her mother's needs or her own struggle for independence come first?
This dazzling volume records the artist's travels through the Lone Star State, a grand expedition for our time Renowned artist Mark Dion (b. 1961) has a deep passion for history and the natural world. His installations mine the materials of the past to level an institutional critique in the present. Evoking the grand expeditionary journals of the 19th century, this singular volume records Dion's latest work, produced through his crisscrossing of Texas and exploration of the Lone Star State. Dion retraces the travels of four artists and naturalists-John James Audubon, Sarah Ann Lillie Hardinge, Frederick Law Olmsted, and Charles Wright-who journeyed to the region over a century ago. Dion's travel companions include preservationists, ranchers, botanists, a poet, a tarot card reader, and fellow artists who offer accompanying texts, while lavish illustrations feature the objects Dion made or collected during his travels alongside historical artworks and botanical specimens. The result is a stunning document of the American West, past and present.

"A coming-of-age novel with a refreshingly different twist. Heartwarming but never sentimentalized and thoroughly believable."-Cyrisse Jaffee, "School Library Journal" "Adler infuses her first book with sympathy and sharp insights, and she writes with professionalism."-"Publishers Weekly" Twelve-year-old Jeremy is sure his summer at his family's beach cottage is going to be terrible. It's bad enough having a cast on his leg so he can't run on the beach or swim with his friends, but to be stuck taking care of Lynette, a timid, seven-year-old girl, is the ultimate torture. Once Lynette arrives, though, Jeremy has to admit that he enjoys the company. She's stuck in a depression after her mother's recent drowning, and she doesn't want to go anywhere near the ocean. To lift Lynette's spirits, Jeremy invents the Glits, magical creatures who grant wishes. Jeremy and Lynette spend their days building elaborate sand castles for the Glits and becoming close friends, but as summer draws to a close, Jeremy worries about what will happen to Lynette when he's no longer at her side. A little touch of magic and a dose of "joy fizz" from the Glits just might solve Lynette's problems and restore this sullen girl to her laughing, playful self.

Dr. Elizabeth Sahtouris in her essay on human social evolution goes into detail about how the planet is being exploited by those who would use the fossil fuels under the ground for their own profit and by so doing produce toxic waste in amounts that will eventually lay waste to nature itself. Her model of the human body and how it builds blood and distributes oxygen and nutrients to the extremities is a good example of how the ecological system of the planet should run. Just as cutting off these nutrients to one part of the body will cause it to decay and infect the organism as a whole. Cutting off nutrients to any part of our planet and its peoples puts all survival in danger. We are nature, and as John Donne so aptly put it. "No man is an island," and the bell tolls for us all." I have written my story, The Finkelstein Progeny with a mischievous and slightly erotic sense of humor. But then, sex and humor are very much a part of our existence as is the penchant for dreaming and fantasizing. HG Wells envisioned many things in his fantasies which have long come to pass and Orwell's vision of 1984 is fast becoming reality. Can our planet be saved? Will it be saved? What can I do to help save it? These are questions that should be on the mind of every thinking creature in this day and age. I have applauded Bill and Hillary and perhaps teased them a little. But I firmly believe that they were on the right track.
