"Yes, MONEY. Just what is it? Why is it important? What should it mean to our children? What do we do with it? What should we not do with it?" This Book is a message we Parents want to give our children about dealing with Change (Part 1). Then (Part 2) we apply that lite lesson to how we want our very young children to think about Money. Parents don't talk about money to our children for two reasons: (1) we are terrified we are not good role models when it comes to money and; (2) we don't know a lot about money and therefore don't have the confidence we can teach our kids about it. This Book is the help needed to get the conversation started. I've been a debt-relief attorney since 1989. By the time clients come into my office, it is a hard climb to alter many of our bad money habits. It's a little late in the game. We should start much earlier - because if we don't, someone or something will do the teaching for us. Haven't we been bewildered by a young boy's response to money being a hand gesture while saying, "Make it Pain on that (you know)". Consider this - the problem might be we didn't introduce our ideas about money to our children early enough. A University of Cambridge Study* reveals that adult money habits are set by the age of seven. Seven Years Old! "Attorney Jones has represented more than 4000 individual clients in financial management cases over the years and is uniquely positioned to tell us, not Just theory but the reality of what needs to be impressed upon our children and our community." - Lysander Woods, Attorney, Atlanta, Georgia. "I agree with the message in this Book - economic freedom is the beginning of True Freedom" - Nathaniel Turner, Los Angeles, California "It is clear when you control change and your money, you control your destiny. The Joneses show how to teach that lesson to our children early" - E. Duane Jones, Attorney/Minister, Atlanta, Georgia

For over a hundred years, the Arlee Fourth of July Celebration, or Powwow, on the Flathead Indian Reservation has brought people together to honor the traditions of the Salish. Over a Century of Moving to the Drum: Salish Indian Celebrations on the Flathead Indian Reservation, by Salish teacher and spiritual advisor Johnny Arlee, offers a tribute to this longstanding event. Lavishly illustrated with pen and ink sketches of powwow scenes and photographs of powwows in the 1940s, the main narrative is based on interviews Arlee conducted with Salish elders in the 1970s. Excerpts of the interviews--and interviews with modern powwow participants--round out the volume.

From clothing to the painted and scarified nude body, through overt, public display or esoteric symbols known only to the initiated, dress can convey information about beliefs, faith, identity, power, agency, resistance, and fashion. Taking a 'senses' approach, Hume's engaging account takes into consideration the look, smell, feel, touch and sound of religious apparel, the 'smells and bells' of dress and its accoutrements, as well as the emotions evoked by donning religious garb. The book's global perspective provides wide-ranging, yet detailed, coverage of religious dress, from the history and meaning of the simple 'no-frills' attire of the Anabaptists to the power structure displayed in the elaborate fabrics and colours of the Roman Catholic Church; Hume examines the 2,500 year-old tradition of Buddhist robes, the nudity of India's holy men, and much more. With chapters on Sufism, Vodou, modern Pagans, as well as painted and tattooed indigenous and modern Western bodies, the reader is swept along on a sensual journey of the sight, sound, smell and feel of wearing religion. Unique in its field, this intriguing and informative anthropological approach to the body and dress is an essential read for students of Anthropology, Anthropology of Dress, Sociology, Fashion and Textiles, Culture and Dress, Body and Culture and Cultural Studies.
