    Instant #1 New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestsellerFrom the Washington Post journalists Yasmeen Abutaleb and Damian Paletta—the definitive account of the Trump administration's tragic mismanagement of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the chaos, incompetence, and craven politicization that has led to more than a half million American deaths and counting.Since the day Donald Trump was elected, his critics warned that an unexpected crisis would test the former reality-television host—and they predicted that the president would prove unable to meet the moment. In 2020, that crisis came to pass, with the outcomes more devastating and consequential than anyone dared to imagine. Nightmare Scenario is the complete story of Donald Trump's handling—and mishandling—of the COVID-19 catastrophe, during the period of January 2020 up to Election Day that year. Yasmeen Abutaleb and Damian Paletta take us deep inside the White House, from the Situation Room to the Oval Office, to show how the members of the administration launched an all-out war against the health agencies, doctors, and scientific communities, all in their futile attempts to wish away the worst global pandemic in a century. From the initial discovery of this new coronavirus, President Trump refused to take responsibility, disputed the recommendations of his own pandemic task force, claimed the virus would "just disappear,” mocked advocates for safe-health practices, and encouraged his base and the entire GOP to ignore or rescind public health safety measures. Abutaleb and Paletta reveal the numerous times officials tried to dissuade Trump from following his worst impulses as he defied recommendations from the experts and even members of his own administration. And they show how the petty backstabbing and rivalries among cabinet members, staff, and aides created a toxic environment of blame, sycophancy, and political pressure that did profound damage to the public health institutions that Americans needed the most during this time. Even after an outbreak in the fall that swept through the White House and infected Trump himself, he remained defiant in his approach to the virus, very likely costing him his own reelection.Based on exhaustive reporting and hundreds of hours of interviews from inside the disaster zone at all levels of authority, Nightmare Scenario is a riveting account of how the United States government failed its people as never before, a tragedy whose devastating aftershocks will linger and be felt by generations to come.

    LUẬT TỨ PHẦN, Quyển 3Việt dịch: Tỳ-kheo Thích Đỗng Minh: Hiệu chính & Chú thích: Tỳ-kheo Thích Tuệ SỹBản dịch Luật Tứ phần ấn hành lần thứ nhất PL 2546 (Tl.2002) chỉ mới gồm 30 quyển trong bản Hán, phân thành ba tập, nội dung thuyết minh giới pháp Tỳ-kheo (tập 1 & 2), và giới pháp Tỳ-kheo-ni (tập 3), phổ biến giới hạn trong các giảng khóa và các trường Luật để làm tư liệu học tập, nghiên cứu Giới bổn Tỳ-kheo và Tỳ-kheo-ni. (...)Hòa thượng [Thích Đỗng Minh] là một số rất ít trong các Tỳ-kheo trì luật của Tăng-già Việt Nam kể từ khi Phật giáo được trùng hưng, Tăng thể được chấn chỉnh và khôi phục. Thế hệ thứ nhất trong phả hệ truyền thừa Luật tạng của Tăng già Việt Nam thời trùng hưng hiện đại bao gồm bóng mờ của nhiều bậc Thượng tôn Trưởng lão, uy nghi đĩnh đạc nhưng khó hình dung rõ nét đối với các thế hệ tiếp bước theo sau. Các Ngài xứng đáng là bậc Long Tượng trong chốn tòng lâm, mà đời sống phạm hạnh nghiêm túc, phản chiếu giới đức sáng ngời, tịnh như băng tuyết, mãi mãi ghi dấu trên các nẻo đường hành cước, tham phương, hoằng truyền Chánh pháp. (...)Chính trong điều kiện và bối cảnh xã hội này, hình ảnh Hòa thượng thường xuyên xuất hiện trong các Tăng sự thường hành giữa hai hệ truyền Luật Nam Bắc, hoặc chính thức, hoặc dự khán. Hòa thượng có kể lại cho chúng tôi nghe những lần Hòa thượng được phép dự khán để quan sát Tăng-già Nam phương tác pháp yết-ma; trong đó sima hay cương giới được ấn định sao cho sự dự khán của Hòa thượng không làm cho Tăng yết-ma bị nghi là phi pháp, phi luật. Những điểm tế nhị như vậy trong sinh hoạt Tăng-già không phải là điều dễ cảm nhận đối với những ai không trực tiếp dự phần hay được nghe từ chính người trực tiếp dự phần; và do đó cũng tương đối khó khăn để lý giải bản thể thanh tịnh và hòa hiệp của Tăng-già.(...)Bản dịch Luật Tứ phần này của Hòa thượng cùng với sự hiệu chính và chú thích đã được Hòa thượng xem lại, nhưng chúng tôi không thấy Hòa thượng chỉ dạy gì thêm về những sai lầm có thể có trong khi hiệu chính và chú thích; vì vậy đây có thể được coi là bản dịch chuẩn với sự ấn khả của Hòa thượng.Ghi chú 1. Bộ Luật Tứ Phần này gồm có 4 quyển (q.1-4) do HT Thích Đỗng Minh dịch Việt, Hòa thượng Thích Tuệ Sỹ hiệu chính và chú thích: cộng 1 sách Tổng Lục do Tuệ Sỹ biên soạn.2. Toàn bộ sách do Hội Ấn Hành Đại Tạng Kinh Việt Nam thực hiện đều được ấn hành phi lợi nhuận. Với tâm nguyện cúng dường Pháp thí, Hội Ấn Hành ĐTKVN lần lượt in các Kinh Luật Luận trên giấy tốt và bìa dày tại các nhà in chuyên dụng để cúng dường thập phương. Ngoài ra, nếu quý vị muốn thỉnh Kinh sách theo nhu cầu cá nhân mà không bị gián đoạn, hay trường hợp Kinh sách in đã phân phối hết, xin tùy chọn cách đặt in sách "print on demand" nơi đây và tự nguyện trả các chi phí. Giá niêm yết ở đây là các chi phí tối thiểu do các hệ thống phát hành quốc tế quy định, chúng tôi hoàn toàn không thu bất kỳ lợi nhuận nào trong Phật sự này..

    The occasional essay was characterised by its personal and conversational style. It dealt usually with things of contemporary interest but with an insight and humane attention superior to ordinary discussion. It wore its considerable learning lightly and sometimes revealed a little gentle humour. John Devanny's work is in the great tradition of Southern essayists like Poe, Simms, Weaver, Davidson, O'Connor, and Percy. Excerpts: "This modest collection is designed to express the mentalitie' of a Southern conservative who holds to the old verities of faith and family, place, tradition, and custom. And who views history, and politics, and culture through the lens of not just changes, but important continuities." " . . . we know our good Yankee progressive cannot stop at the borders of his home state; He wants to bring the City on the Hill to you, whether you want it or not. ">'' . . . once the impious destroys the ties to tradition and piety, so too are the virtues that are allow for civilisation to be sundered. . . .

    The Empirical Observations of Algernon by Iain Cameron Williams is a journey into the everyday unknown and the everyday ordinary. Kooky, quirky, passionate, cool, and on occasions, provocative. The strength of the narrative comes, in essence, as much from the reader's soul as that of Algernon's. The writer, as a traveller, is as much a tourist as a documenter; the two go hand in hand. The Empirical Observations of Algernon [vol. I] - the first volume in an intended series of four - is six months into that journey and contains poetry, prose, observation, and photography. The writer visits America (New York, Long Island), Canada (Montreal), and various cities in England.'take a leaf ... any leaf, hold it close to your heart. tell a story to a stranger, only then will you reveal exactly who you are.'

So why can't I stay away from him?Contusion: I want to see him again, but can I keep my illness a secret from yet another person? Incision: How can a heart surgeon be so heartless? Or is he simply trying to mask his own attraction?Praise for Remission: "With the drama and passion of a telenovela, Ofelia Martinez creates a world of found family centered on a hospital so real I felt that I'd walked its halls. The angsty push-pull of Carolina and Hector kept me glued to my e-reader." - Michelle McCraw, Author of Work with Me"If you enjoy hospital settings, doctors daring to taste the forbidden, and a slow-burn romance that shifts time periods, you'll enjoy Remission. The characters pretty much pop off the page." - Maggie from the Maggie Blackbird blog"Martinez's debut novel was so wonderful to read and a great start to a series. Her characters were captivating, full of charm, sass, and heart. " - Jennie from Lost in Booklandia"Just the thought of Hector saying "Carolina" with his Spanish accent is enough to make sure your vital signs are in working order." - Jazz Matthews, Author of The Rancher's Callous Heart"Talk about slow burn...but everything is happening so fast you don't get a minute to catch your breath." - Tanja from OMGReads
