Syntax Within the Word

Economy, Allomorphy, and Argument Selection in Distributed Morphology

By: Daniel Siddiqi

Syntax within the Word provides a multifaceted look into the syntactic framework of Distributed Morphology (DM) within the Minimalist program. For those unfamiliar with the theory, this monograph provides an overview of DM and argues its strengths. For those more familiar with DM, this monograph provides analyses of familiar data much of which has not been treated within the framework: argument selection, stem allomorphy and suppletion, nominal compounds in English (feet-first vs. *heads-first), and the structure of the verb phrase. This monograph also proposes a future for the theory in the form of revisions to DM including: the elimination of readjustment rules, a new economy constraint (Minimize Exponence) that triggers fusion of functional heads, and a feature blocking system.

By: Henry M. Robert III,Daniel H Honemann,Thomas J Balch,Daniel E. Seabold,Shmuel Gerber

A short, concise and user-friendly guide to the essential procedures of conducting a meeting, written by the authors of Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised, the only authorized edition of the classic work on parliamentary procedure Originally published in 1876, General Henry M. Robert's guide to smooth, orderly, and fairly conducted meetings has sold over six million copies in eleven editions. Robert's Rules of Order is the book on parliamentary proceedings, yet those not well versed on what has now become a rather thick document can find themselves lost-and delayed-while trying to locate the most important rules. The solution? Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised in Brief. Written by the same authorship team behind the officially sanctioned Robert's Rules of Order, this short and user-friendly edition takes readers through the rules most often needed at meetings--from debates to amendments to nominations. With sample dialogues and a guide to using the complete edition, Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised in Brief is the essential handbook for parliamentary proceedings.

The Zohar

Pritzker Edition, Volume Four

By: Daniel Chanan Matt

Sefer ha-Zohar (The Book of Radiance) has amazed and overwhelmed readers ever since it emerged mysteriously in medieval Spain toward the end of the thirteenth century. Written in a unique, lyrical Aramaic, this masterpiece of Kabbalah exceeds the dimensions of a normal book; it is virtually a body of literature, comprising over twenty discrete sections. The bulk of theZohar consists of a running commentary on the Torah, from Genesis through Deuteronomy. This fourth volume of The Zohar: Pritzker Edition covers the first half of Exodus. Here we find mystical explorations of Pharaoh's enslavement of the Israelites, the birth of Moses, the deliverance from Egypt, the crossing of the Red Sea, and the Revelation at Mount Sinai. Throughout, the Zohar probes the biblical text and seeks deeper meaningfor example, the nature of evil and its relation to the divine realm, the romance of Moses andShekhinah, and the inner meaning of the Ten Commandments. In the context of the miraculous splitting of the Red Sea, Rabbi Shim'on reveals the mysterious Name of 72, a complex divine name consisting of 216 letters (72 triads), formed out of three verses in Exodus 14. These mystical interpretations are interwoven with tales of the Companionsrabbis wandering through the hills of Galilee, sharing their insights, coming upon wisdom in the most astonishing ways from a colorful cast of characters they meet on the road.

Saved...But Stuck

Saved...But Stuck

By: Rodney Daniel

Saved but Stuck is an inspirational book using scriptures and biblical lessons to help people of GOD both embrace this dichotomy of loving GOD as committed Christians but finding themselves still being stuck in some area of their lives and unable to get past certain points of their individual struggles. Sometimes this bondage that they're experiencing is connected to internal struggles, such as depression, loneliness, fear, or complacency. At other times, we may find ourselves stuck in external situations--such as relationships, jobs, financial barrenness--or even stuck with issues within ministry. This book utilizes the Word of GOD to identify how we may have become stuck and then pinpoint the ways to gain and maintain our liberty.

Starting Points

100 Triggers for Writing, Journal-Keeping, and Personal Reflection

By: Daniel Pelletier

Starting Points: One Hundred Triggers for Writing, Journal-Keeping, and Personal Reflection encourages its readers to be journal-keepers who believe that their thoughts, insights, and discoveries are worth recording, then developing, and possibly publishing. Daniel Pelletier has selected one hundred items from his own journals and letters. Many of these are reflections upon Scripture, while others are inspired by experiences. A few poems and creative bits are included. A serious spirituality is sometimes blended with humor. Starting Points is premised upon the idea that journal-keeping is vital to any serious writer. Journal notes from various experiences in ones life can provide any writer with seed-thoughts and inspiration for later writing projects. To encourage readers to begin keeping their own journals, each piece is followed by a blank space for response, query, maybe disagreement, maybe a creative take-off (poem, song, article, story bit). These journal notes may be dated (or not) and collected to a file. The authors practice is to have a Starters folder, with each file limited to 50 items or pieces. A dozen files, for example, would have 600 pieces to be mined and developed.

The River of Life

Sustainable Practices of Native Americans and Indigenous Peoples

By: Michael Marchand,Kristiina Vogt,Asep Suntana,Rodney Cawston,John Gordon,Mia Siscawati,Daniel Vogt,John Tovey,Ragnhildur Sigurdardottir,Patricia Roads

Sustainability defines the need for any society to live within the constraints of the land's capacity to deliver all natural resources the society consumes. This book compares the general differences between Native Americans and western world view towards resources. It will provide the ‘nuts and bolts’ of a sustainability portfolio designed by indigenous peoples. This book introduces the ideas on how to link nature and society to make sustainable choices. To be sustainable, nature and its endowment needs to be linked to human behavior similar to the practices of indigenous peoples. The main goal of this book is to facilitate thinking about how to change behavior and to integrate culture into thinking and decision-processes.
