Stacks of books are heavy. So, it's not too surprising that most bookcases can seem so big and burdensome. But this A-frame ladder shelf is not like most bookcases. It's sleek, asymmetrical frame narrows as it ascends from the floor, lending a slimming effect to slip harmoniously into most spaces. Five shelves still support plenty of storage, with many home designers placing heavier items (like books or bins) onto the bottom shelves, reserving the upper tiers for picture frames, leafy plants, and other softer decor. A sturdy steel frame and protective veneer on the shelves make this a piece that can tackle tough home organization and look good doing it. Color: White/Natural.

The aging of the U.S. population is one of the major challenges we face in the 21st century. The senior population explosion has created burdensome health and financial issues, constant modifications in social welfare benefits, and changes in family dynamics. Due to a culture that celebrates youth and ignores the elderly, seniors and their familes are largely unprepared to deal with these challenges. We have been led to believe that our "golden years" will be carefree and much siimpler. Nothing could be further from the truth. Not only will seniors find their lives more complicated but so also will their adult children or caretakers. Most adult children are hesitant or embarrassed to talk with their parents about aging issues. The parents may also be embarrassed or baffled about the changes occurring in their lives. All parties could be in denial. When problems become so severe that immediate action is required, the family is left scrambling for solutions, leading to hasty and ill-informed decisions that could jeopardize the physical and financial health of the senior parent. This book provides a concise, clear overview of the major issues and problems confronting seniors and their families, and offers guidance and resources to assist in solving those problems. It is not an academic tome filled with statistics and theory but was written from the trenches by the author who has worked with hundreds of seniors and their families. The main premise of the book: don't get depressed; get prepared.

Excerpt from A Short History of Wesleyan Methodist Foreign MissionsThis History appears at a moment when the mission ary spirit of Methodism has found memorable expression in the removal of a burdensome debt and a large addition to the annual income of the Society. The facts given in this volume abundantly justify the confidence of our Church, and show that the sacrifices it has made during the last century and a quarter for the spread of the gospel are bearing fruit for which we can never cease to be grateful to God.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In this follow-up to his best seller Choosing Gratitude: Learning to Love the Life You Have, renowned author James A. Autry joins his wife Sally J. Pederson for a year of gratefulness. Each devotion challenges us to see a source of gratefulness amidst the normal, burdensome circumstances of life. As the year progresses, we are let into Jim and Sally's lives, their trips to visit family, the blessings of their sons and friends. They remind us of things that happened last week or a month ago, even the weather, and so we are looped into the confidence of wise friends who really are the most positive, grateful people we would ever hope to meet. We want to be more grateful as we want to be more honest, more courageous, more generous. Each month, Jim and Sally highlight an added virtue to direct us on our guide to grateful living. Filled with quotes, poems, and the inspired voices of both Pederson and Autry, in a society consumed by fears of not having “enough”—money, possessions, security, and so on—this book suggests that if we cultivate gratitude as a way of being, we may not change the world and its ills, but we can change our response to the world.

“Bernie Schein is the funniest man alive, or so he has dogmatically maintained during the burdensome decades I have known him. . . . [He is] by turns hysterically funny, wildly neurotic, uniquely sensitive, and heartbreakingly honest.”—Pat ConroyPat Conroy, the bestselling author of The Prince of Tides and The Great Santini among many other books, was beloved by millions of readers. Bernie Schein was his best friend from the time they met in a high-school pickup basketball game in Beaufort, South Carolina, until Conroy’s death in 2016.Both were popular but also outsiders as a Jew and a Catholic military brat in the small-town Bible-Belt South, and they bonded. Wiseass and smart aleck, loudmouths both, they shared an ebullient sense of humor and romanticism, were mesmerized by the highbrow and reveled in the low, and would sacrifice entire evenings and afternoons to endless conversation. As young teachers in the Beaufort area and later in Atlanta, they were activists in the civil rights struggle and against institutional racism and bigotry. Bernie knew intimately the private family story of the Conroys and his friend’s difficult relationship with his Marine Corps colonel father that Pat would draw on repeatedly in his fiction.A love letter and homage, and a way to share the Pat he knew, this book collects Bernie’s cherished memories about the gregarious, welcoming, larger-than-life man who remained his best friend, even during the years they didn’t speak. It offers a trove of insights and anecdotes that will be treasured by Pat Conroy’s many devoted fans.

From the author: "I have not sought to model these Readers upon any pattern previously set, but to make them the outcome of what I have learned, by observation, of the receptive and retentive powers of children. I desired to impart useful and needful knowledge, in a fashion which should not be burdensome, and which should strongly impress young minds. My one idea has been to benefit the child, and to that end I have directed my whole effort." Please note this is the original Sea-Side and Way-Side, No. 3. Our Lady of Victory School labels Sea-Side and Way-Side, No. 2 as "Book 3", but this book is actually the 3rd Sea-Side and Way-Side Reader which is appropriate for a child around Grade 6. 280 pages in length.

The title of David Whyte's fifth volume of poetry is an apt description of its contents. Everything, he points out, is indeed waiting for us, including our own demise and the demise of those we love. In less eloquent hands, this wisdom might feel burdensome, but in Whyte's language and imagery, these poems convey the beauty inherent in impermanence. Its second chapter, Thresholds, charts the experience of death of a loved one, and Friends, Marriage, Chances and Returns celebrate and explore the relationships, including the relationship with ourself, that accompany us along the journey, for however short or long we're given.

Two young women, dormitory mates, embark on their education at a big state university. Five years later, one is earning a good salary at a prestigious accounting firm. With no loans to repay, she lives in a fashionable apartment with her fiancé. The other woman, saddled with burdensome debt and a low GPA, is still struggling to finish her degree in tourism. In an era of skyrocketing tuition and mounting concern over whether college is "worth it," Paying for the Party is an indispensable contribution to the dialogue assessing the state of American higher education. A powerful exposé of unmet obligations and misplaced priorities, it explains in vivid detail why so many leave college with so little to show for it.Drawing on findings from a five-year interview study, Elizabeth Armstrong and Laura Hamilton bring us to the campus of "MU," a flagship Midwestern public university, where we follow a group of women drawn into a culture of status seeking and sororities. Mapping different pathways available to MU students, the authors demonstrate that the most well-resourced and seductive route is a "party pathway" anchored in the Greek system and facilitated by the administration. This pathway exerts influence over the academic and social experiences of all students, and while it benefits the affluent and well-connected, Armstrong and Hamilton make clear how it seriously disadvantages the majority.Eye-opening and provocative, Paying for the Party reveals how outcomes can differ so dramatically for those whom universities enroll.

The grocery business began as a complicated service industry. Random pricing, inconsistent quantities and prescriptive salesmen made grocery shopping burdensome. It took one brash Memphian with uncommon vision and unbridled ambition to change everything. Clarence Saunders worked his way out of poverty and obscurity to found Piggly Wiggly in 1916. With an unprecedented approach, he virtually invented the concept of the modern self-service grocery store. Stores flourished, franchises spread and Saunders made millions. Yet just as the final bricks of Pink Palace--his garish marble mansion--were being laid, Saunders went bankrupt, and he was forced to sell Piggly Wiggly. A variety of new ventures helped Saunders out of bankruptcy, but he never duplicated his prior success. Memphis historian Mike Freeman tracks the remarkable life of this retail visionary.

The emphasis of this book is on understanding the essentials of analog electronics, rather than blindly applying equations and formulae. Students and professionals at all levels will be able to grasp the basic concepts without being side-tracked by burdensome calculations, which are now solved by computers in the real world and therefore need not hold back the engineer or designer. Analog electronics is a topic in its own right, but also relates to most other aspects of electronics. Often ignored in favour of digital techniques, it is nevertheless a compulsory area of study for all electronics engineers and technicians as it underpins many technologies. To reflect the increased use of computer simulation by electronic design engineers, the many illustrations in this book include graphs and numerical data obtained from computer analyses.Owen Bishop has written many best-selling books including Understand Electrical and Electronic Maths, Understand Technical Maths, Understand Electronics and Understand Electronic Filters, all published by Newnes.avoids becoming bogged down with heavy calculationsoffers the basics so as to develop intuitive understanding illustrated with computer simulations of analog circuits
