Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Rock | Water | Life Lesley Green examines the interwoven realities of inequality, racism, colonialism, and environmental destruction in South Africa, calling for environmental research and governance to transition to an ecopolitical approach that could address South Africa's history of racial oppression and environmental exploitation.

Offering in-depth studies of environmental conflict in contemporary South Africa, Green addresses the history of contested water access in Cape Town; struggles over natural gas fracking in the Karoo; debates about decolonizing science; the potential for a politics of soil in the call for land restitution; urban baboon management; and the consequences of sending sewage to urban oceans.

Download or read book Finding Agates written by Dennis Kirouac and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-27 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agate Ex 28:19, 39:12 Agate is named as the second stone in the third row of the high priest's breastplate. Agates are a form of chalcedony (a fine-grained variety of quartz) that are banded or lined in a variety of patterns of colored layers. Colors range from white to dull yellow, red, brown, orange, blue, black, and gray. The Hebrew word for agate is shebo which literally means "to flame, split into tongues." "Agate" comes from the Greek word, achates, which is the name of the river in Sicily where agate was mined (www.preciousstonesofthebible.com). The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, the fifth onyx, the sixth ruby, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth turquoise, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst. The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass. (Revelation 21:19-21, NIV) Rocks and stones are mentioned throughout the Bible, and many times they are synonymous with truth. "And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it" (Matthew 16:18, NIV). Here we see that Jesus is telling Peter that upon this truth he will build His church. "So David triumphed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone; without a sword in his hand he struck down the Philistine and killed him" (1 Samuel 17:50, NIV). Goliath came at David with his own armor. He had his own helmet of salvation, his own breastplate of self-righteousness, and the sword of his own spirit. David launched God rock of truth which went straight to the source of the problem, right between the eyes where man's thoughts reside, and he used Goliath's own sword to remove this origin of the knowledge of good and evil. "When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, 'Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her'" (John 8:7, NIV). Here the people had the rocks of truth about this woman, and according to the Law of Moses, they were within their rights to use these truths on her, but Jesus's answer shows us how we are to handle these truths we find out about each other. We are to lay these truths before Jesus and let Him handle it. This little book is about the most precious stone of all, the chief cornerstone, Jesus, and all the truths that God has let me find over the years of searching. Some are rough around the edges, some are not, but all are to the glory of God. To me, the definition of glory means the invisible made visible. The invisible nature of God made visible to you and me.

Download or read book Moss Agates written by Wesley Philemon Carroll and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Moss Agates: To My Comrades of the Grand Army of the Republic and to My Brother Members of the Wyoming Bar This Little Volume of Poems I Respectfully Dedicated The author of this little volume of poems has only to say regarding them that they contain "more truth than poetry." Not professing to be a poet, he has nevertheless from time to time hastily composed the productions contained in this book; but this has been a mere incidental matter with him. Very many of the poems herein contained have been prepared by request and for some particular occasion. Others were composed impromptu, and in this category are "The Old Pipe;" "Goodbye, Old Town;" "Don't Call Me a Cripple," "A New Year's Vision," Etc., Etc. Several of these poems were written at a time when the author was so nearly blind that he was unable to read his own manuscript, and the result has been that their construction is unsatisfactory even to the author himself.

Book excerpt: Beijing, 1322. Wu Johanna is the granddaughter of the legendary trader Marco Polo. In the wake of her father's death, Johanna finds that lineage counts for little amid the den of intrigue that is the Great Khan's court. Johanna's future – if she has one – lies with her grandfather, in Venice, more than a continent away at the very edge of the known world. So, with a small band of companions, she takes to the Silk Road – that storied collection of routes that link the silks of Cathay, the spices of the Indies and the jewels of the Indus to the markets of the West. But the journey will be long and arduous, for the road ahead is beset by burning sands and ice-fanged mountains, thieves and fanatics, treachery and betrayal.

Download or read book Carrying Water to the Field written by Joyce Sutphen and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2019-10 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joyce Sutphen's evocations of life on a small farm, coming of age in the late 1960s, and traveling and searching for balance in a very modern world are both deeply personal and familiar. Readers from Maine to Minnesota and beyond will recognize themselves, their parents, aunts and uncles, and neighbors in these poems, which move us from delight in keen description toward something like wisdom or solace in the things of this world. In addition to poems selected from the last twenty-five years, Carrying Water to the Field includes more than forty new poems on the themes of luck, hard work, and the ravages of time--erasures that Sutphen attempts to ameliorate with her careful attention to language and lyrical precision.
