Books Boxes and Boats : Libros Cajas y Barcos (9780998858104)



Introduction Bay Island Books didn't start out as a Literacy Program. Its sole purpose was to collect 100 books for a small, K-3rd grade school on the Island of Guanaja. Along with Roatan and Utila, they make up the Bay Islands of Honduras. Great ideas, however, can quickly develop lives of their own if you let them. We decided to let it... and the last couple of years have been amazing!! We went on to support all of the schools on Guanaja and help establish Guanaja's first Public Library, but our efforts didn't end there. We quickly branched out to Guanaja's sister Islands of Roatan and Utila. Providing books for schools, libraries, and children's homes has been our focus, but we routinely find new projects to support throughout the Bay Islands. Since May of 2014, we have provided 50,318 books for our Literacy Projects in the Bay Islands. Education is the key to addressing many of the issues that face the Bay Islands and Education begins with Literacy. Books Boxes and Boats tells the story of our Literacy Program so far. From its humble beginning, it has evolved into a feel-good story that resonates from Texas to the Bay Islands of Honduras. Children and adults, both in Honduras and the United States, will enjoy this bilingual story. We all need to be reminded that books are fun and that sharing them with others is even better. We will provide updates as our story unfolds and the scope of Bay Island Books continues to grow. Intoducción El programa de Libros para las Islas de la Bahía no empezó como un Programa de Fomento a la Lectura. Su único propósito era reunir 100 libros para los niños de kínder a tercer grado en la Isla de Guanaja, la que junto con Roatán y Utila, forman las Islas de la Bahía de Honduras. Las grandes ideas de cualquier manera pueden tener vida propia si uno las deja. Y eso hicimos... ¡por eso los últimos dos años han sido verdaderamente increíbles! Aceptamos el reto de apoyar a todas las escuelas de Guanaja y establecer su primera biblioteca pública, y nuestros esfuerzos no se quedaron ahí. El proyecto se extendió a las islas hermanas de Roatán y Utila. Así la donación de libros a las escuelas, bibliotecas y a los mismos hogares de los niños ha sido nuestro punto de enfoque y de esta forma continuamos el apoyo a otros proyectos en las Islas de la Bahía. Desde mayo de 2014 hemos logrado conseguir 50,318 libros para los Proyectos de Fomento a la Lectura. La educación es la clave para afrontar muchos de los problemas que afectan las Islas de la Bahía y la educación comienza con la alfabetización. Libros Cajas y Barcos cuenta la historia de nuestro programa de Fomento a la Lectura hasta este momento. Desde su humilde comienzo se ha convertido en una historia excepcional que va desde Tejas hasta las Islas de la Bahía en Honduras. Los niños y los adultos, tanto en Honduras como en los Estados Unidos, disfrutarán esta historia bilingüe. Todos tenemos que recordar que los libros son divertidos y que compartirlos con otros lo es todavía más. Vamos a mantenerlos al tanto según avance nuestro proyecto y la vision de las Islas de la Bahía siga creciendo.

Good to Great : Why Some Companies Make the Leap...and Others Don't (9780066620992)

The Challenge Built to Last, the defining management study of the nineties, showed how great companies triumph over time and how long-term sustained performance can be engineered into the DNA of an enterprise from the very beginning. But what about the company that is not born with great DNA? How can good companies, mediocre companies, even bad companies achieve enduring greatness? The Study For years, this question preyed on the mind of Jim Collins. Are there companies that defy gravity and convert long-term mediocrity or worse into long-term superiority? And if so, what are the universal distinguishing characteristics that cause a company to go from good to great? The Standards Using tough benchmarks, Collins and his research team identified a set of elite companies that made the leap to great results and sustained those results for at least fifteen years. How great? After the leap, the good-to-great companies generated cumulative stock returns that beat the general stock market b...

Swedenborg and Esoteric Islam (9780877851837)

This volume makes two essays by Henry Corbin, the eminent French scholar of Islam, available in English for the first time. Although his primary interest was the esoteric tradition of Islam, Corbin was also a lifelong student of the theological works of Emanuel Swedenborg. The first essay, "Mundus Imaginalis, or The Imaginary and the Imaginal," clarifies Corbin's use of the term he coined, mundus imaginalis, or "the imaginal world." This important concept appears in both Swedenborgian and esoteric Islamic spirituality. The second piece, "Comparative Spiritual Hermeneutics," compares the revelation of the internal sense of the sacred boks of two distinct religions, Christianity and Islam.
