"Hundreds of user-friendly lesson plans help teachers build attitudes of respect and caring, reduce problem behaviors, empower students to solve problems, and educate the whole child socially, emotionally, and academically. The lessons' literature-based connections allow teachers to "build in" rather than "add on" social-emotional learning (SEL) as part of the daily curriculum. Each resource guide offers: - Monthly themes focused on emotions, empathy, relationships, conflict resolution, bullying prevention, problem solving, decision making, teamwork, and self-esteem - Literature-based lessons with curriculum integrations for using the lessons as part of language arts, social studies, science, math, art, and music - Easy-to-implement lesson formats

<p>This article deals with a famous pilgrimage site, Chöten nyima (mchod rten nyi ma), near the border of Tibet and Sikkim known to purify misdeeds, especially those of incest and parricide. The author reviews descriptions of the site from western literature, from oral accounts of Tibetans and Sherpas, and from Tibetan pilgrimage guides to the area. There is an extensive discussion of incest among ethnic Tibetans, covering issues such as perceptions of incest and its occurance within Tibetan society. (Ben Deitle 2006-02-10)</p>

<p><em>Études mongoles et sibériennes, centrasiatiques et tibétaines</em> (EMSCAT), founded in 1970 as <em>Études mongoles et sibériennes</em>, is one of the oldest currently published journals dealing with the Mongol world and surround areas in eastern Asia. In 1976, EMSCAT expanded coverage to include Siberia, and in 2004, central Asia and Tibet. Although one world is Muslim and the other Buddhist, the aim is not to deal with Buddhism or Islam in their own right. It is rather to study these worlds as parts of a vast whole, from the Arctic Sea to the Himalayas, favoring comparative perspectives.</p>
<p>It is EMSCAT's intention to provide a forum for scholarship on cultural issues by both established scholars and young researchers new to the field. The editorial line encompasses regular issues, monographs, and comparative thematic issues often produced by guest editors. The journal is published annually.(2009-03-24)</p>
