Savoring the renown cuisine of France should be one of the high-points of any trip to Paris. Unfortunately, many travel guides give their top ratings to deluxe "temples" of haute cuisine that most travelers will find stuffy, intimidating and - even with the strong dollar - incredibly expensive. Conversely, the low-priced brasserie/cafés that can be found on almost every street corner are fine places to stop for a drink but generally serve mediocre food. Worst of all, there are also many tourist traps that manage to be both mediocre and expensive. What's the secret to finding a great meal in Paris without spending a fortune? Join Bob and Michele Seass, authors of "Best Bistros & Brasseries in New York City" as they dine, just as most Parisians do, in cozy, reasonably priced neighborhood bistros. In "Favorite Paris Bistros - Twenty-First Century Edition" they share the many dining highlights, plus a few surprising lowlights, from their last eight trips to the City!   of Light. Their trip reports also include sightseeing suggestions and tips on cozy small hotels.

Best Bistros & Brasseries

This casebook covers all of constitutional "civil" mental health law, including involuntary civil commitment, the right to refuse treatment, and the rights of persons with mental disabilities in community settings. Perlin also addresses federal statutory rights, including, but not limited to, the Americans with Disabilities Act; other civil mental health issues, including torts and family law; and the criminal trial process, including all aspects of competency, the insanity defense, self-incrimination, confessions, the death penalty, and sentencing and post-sentencing issues. 
Cases and materials not only teach students the relevant doctrine and theory, but also give them an understanding of why the cases were decided as they were. Questions after all major sections encourage the teacher to direct students to think about the social, political, and behavioral forces that led to many of the decisions in question.

The unprecedented explosion of the number of persons with mental illness and mental retardation in jails and prisons, the statutory limitations on lawsuits by prisoners, the diminution of legal services available to prisoners, the increase in litigation on behalf of persons institutionalized because of mental illness in civil and forensic settings, and the blurring of the borderlines between criminal and civil mental disability law have led the authors to conclude that (1) the time was right for a course dedicated solely to the topic of mental health issues in jails and prisons, and (2) there was also a need for a casebook devoted to these issues. This book flows from these conclusions. This casebook covers, among other topics, the historical development of the constitutional right to health care and mental health care within institutions; the law of detainee status; issues surrounding the use of mental status defenses, and the role, in the criminal trial process, of the competency to stand trial determination and the insanity defense; mental status issues in sentencing and in disciplinary charges within prison; the special issues raised when the inmate is female, a juvenile, a person with mental retardation, or a person whose immigration status is in question; the right to treatment, with special attention paid to the development of the deliberate indifference standard and its application to mental health issues; and issues related to screening, treatment, access to care, and recordkeeping. The authors address the major relevant statutes, including Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Prison Litigation Reform Act, and the Civil Rights of Institutionalized Persons Act (CRIPA).

This book explores the secret teachings of all the great philosophers and spiritual geniuses of our time and reveals the common theme throughout all of them.According to the esoteric schools of advanced knowledge, certain divinely inspired teachers brought spiritual, philosophical, and scientific knowledge to the human race following a global cataclysm. This planet has a history of unexplained phenomena that still baffles scientists today. There have been structures built all over the world that are simply out of place and out of time. Have humans been on the scene much longer than we previously thought? Did they leave us clues in writing, sacred geometry, and architecture about who they were and where they came from? Do these clues reveal the truth about who we really are?
