Bulletproof Flowers for the South illustrates how to plant, grow,
and care for a large variety of hardy Southern flowers. Including
an A-Z encyclopedia of Southern favorites and twenty comprehensive
lists of favorite flowers from expert nurseries around the South,
this beautifully illustrated book presents superior long-blooming,

This book is about how to maintain an aliveness to the
possibilities in therapy and practice and how to challenge ideas of
orthodoxy in theory and methodologies that can become stale or
followed like religions. The central metaphor is the performance of
practice emphasized in the spoken word and expressed in all its
non-verbal complexity. How practitioners use every aspect of their
being to communicate with the other in practice, how they shape and
mold their words through gesture and other non-verbal actions in
response to the gestures and words of others is a continually
recursive process. Therapy is an enactment, a performance that is
created between all the participants."This is Jim Wilson's second
book in our series. He might call it his second act. His first
book, Child Focused Practice, was very popular because it offered
practical approaches to working with children for practitioners
from diverse backgrounds. This current volume is written in the
same spirit but takes his thinking and techniques into new areas.
He is interested in two things: how therapists can release more of
their own creativity when working with children and how they can
use enactment to explore difficult family emotions. The influence
of systemic thinking on the family therapy world has often led to
theories and techniques that have often overlooked the value of
simply talking to and playing with children. This book goes some
way to redressing that balance. It is loaded with examples of
conversations with children, playful metaphors, enacted scenarios
of traumatic events, and discussions that connect children to the
other relationships in the family. The sheer pleasure Wilson gets
from working directly withchildren is evident throughout the book
and he is clearly drawing on his personal style, yet the book does
not neglect the theorizing that helps answer the question of why
Wilson does what he does and why it is effective."- David Campbell
and Ros Draper, from the Series Editors' Foreword

This book is about how to maintain an aliveness to the
possibilities in therapy and practice and how to challenge ideas of
orthodoxy in theory and methodologies that can become stale or
followed like religions.
The author, with over twenty years of experience of working with
children, writes refreshingly about the practical aspects of his
work. He takes traditional and contemporary theories and explains
them in the context of how he works with children.
Contemporary practices in mental health (and social care) are
increasingly characterized by approaches that overly simplify
social, political, and psychological concerns. The persistence and
ubiquity of models designated to tackle diagnoses through focused
technologies serve to minimize the human encounter in all its
relational and systemic complexity. Practice becomes a
technological activity instead of one concerned with the unique
creative potential in meeting with others in therapy. With the
growth of privatized mental health services, many practitioners are
facing a plethora of "Must Do's" that focus on measurable outcomes,
with clear goals and cost effective treatments. Yet, in practice,
such apparent clarity of purpose often leads to bureaucratic
clutter and risk aversion instead of clearing the decks for
creativity. The focus of this book is how the practitioner or
therapist can navigate around current practices in order to avoid
falling into the rapids of quick fix solutions, whilst staying
afloat to find realistic outcomes to human dilemmas that are
brought to us.

Data is getting bigger and more complex by the day, and so are your
choices in handling it. Explore some of the most cutting-edge
databases available - from traditional relational databases to
newer NoSQL approaches - and make informed decisions about
challenging data storage problems. This is the only comprehensive
guide to the world of NoSQL databases, with in-depth practical and
conceptual introductions to seven different technologies: Redis,
Neo4J, CouchDB, MongoDB, HBase, Postgres, and DynamoDB. This second
edition includes a new chapter on DynamoDB and updated content for
each chapter. While relational databases such as MySQL remain as
relevant as ever, the alternative, NoSQL paradigm has opened up new
horizons in performance and scalability and changed the way we
approach data-centric problems. This book presents the essential
concepts behind each database alongside hands-on examples that make
each technology come alive. With each database, tackle a real-world
problem that highlights the concepts and features that make it
shine. Along the way, explore five database models - relational,
key/value, columnar, document, and graph - from the perspective of
challenges faced by real applications. Learn how MongoDB and
CouchDB are strikingly different, make your applications faster
with Redis and more connected with Neo4J, build a cluster of HBase
servers using cloud services such as Amazon's Elastic MapReduce,
and more. This new edition brings a brand new chapter on DynamoDB,
updated code samples and exercises, and a more up-to-date account
of each database's feature set. Whether you're a programmer
building the next big thing, a data scientist seeking solutions to
thorny problems, or a technology enthusiast venturing into new
territory, you will find something to inspire you in this book.
What You Need: You'll need a *nix shell (Mac OS or Linux preferred,
Windows users will need Cygwin), Java 6 (or greater), and Ruby
1.8.7 (or greater). Each chapter will list the downloads required
for that database.
Designed for beginning birders and nature enthusiasts alike,
this easy-to-use guide presents sixty-one of the most common
species of birds in the greater Atlanta area.
The guide features large color photographs throughout for
immediate identification and is conveniently organized by bird
size, starting with very small birds, such as the ruby-throated
hummingbird, and progressing to larger species, such as the great
blue heron. Information for each bird species includes common and
scientific names, distinguishing marks and characteristics, and
descriptions of bird calls, typical habitats, and nesting and
feeding behaviors. Accounts also show variations in plumage
according to sex, age, and season. The perfect companion for every
backyard birder, "Common Birds of Greater Atlanta" also serves as
an excellent introduction to birding, bird identification, and
conservation.

Theresa Osborne (Robin Wright Penn) is a successful journalist who
discovers a bottle washed up upon the shore. The bottle contains a
heartfelt love letter to an unknown woman called Catherine and
signed 'G'. Theresa publishes the letter in the Chicago Tribune,
and it transpires that other letters have been found, presumably by
the same author. When Theresa investigates further, she tracks down
the writer of the letters, a sailboat builder named Garret Blake
(Kevin Costner), whose wife died two years ago during childbirth. A
tentative romance develops between Garret and Theresa, but he
remains unaware that she knows of the lost letters and that she was
the journalist who published them.
