Book excerpt: Taylor Walker seems like any ordinary 14-year-old . . . if you overlook the fact that she lives on the island of Borneo, on a primate reserve run by her parents, and knows how to survive in the jungle. Tay isn't just like everyone else. But she is like one other person. She's exactly like one other person. Tay is a clone, one of only five in the world, and her clone mother is Pam Taylor, a brilliant scientist. When rebels attack her home, Tay escapes with her younger brother and Uncle, an exceptionally intelligent orangutan. As they flee for their lives, Tay must look within to find her strength: Pam's DNA, tempered by Taylor's extraordinary life. She's not alone, and she might be a clone, but she's also unique.

Download or read book Pam s Devotions from the Heart written by Pamela Sue Pruitt Lewallen and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the quiet time of my life in prayer and meditation, I felt impressed to write devotions. I had just brought my husband in from a long hospital stay after being diagnosed with congestion heart failure and staying in ICU I was very tired. I stayed so close to him. When doctors said he wasn't going to make it, I just kept praying and calling for prayer, going to the chapel, seeking God. When he began to get better, I knew then God was going to help him and give him more time, but I didn't stop praying. I continued on. Then we found out he had to be transferred to another hospital for an emergency surgery for a triple bypass, so I felt a lot of comfort from God and just kept on praying and asking for prayer and always calling for prayer, going to find the chapel, spending time in the quiet chapel on my knees, crying and praying. He was at that hospital for about a month. Finally, back to my home in the country, while I took care of him while he was asleep and resting. Throughout the day and evening, God laid it on my heart to write devotions. I realized I needed healing to after all that, and I had went through several hurts in life, so it got to be kind of healing for me to write devotions. Late in the evening, I would read some of them to my husband, Paul, and he liked them. I would write them only when I had quiet times. It began to bring healing in my life. My devotions are about my Christian raising growing up, like my parents, some about my family, which is about my kids and grandkids, faith-building scriptures and biblical stories, and about myself. I hope my book gives you more hope, love, faith, a stronger dedication, and a real seriousness of Jesus Christ. Love in Christ, Pam

Download or read book Deep Creek Finding Hope in the High Country written by Pam Houston and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2020 Reading the West Advocacy Award Winner of the 2020 Colorado Book Award for Creative Nonfiction "This is a book for all of us, right now." —Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild On her 120-acre homestead high in the Colorado Rockies, beloved writer Pam Houston learns what it means to care for a piece of land and the creatures on it. Elk calves and bluebirds mark the changing seasons, winter temperatures drop to 35 below, and lightning sparks a 110,000-acre wildfire, threatening her century-old barn and all its inhabitants. Through her travels from the Gulf of Mexico to Alaska, she explores what ties her to the earth, the ranch most of all. Alongside her devoted Irish wolfhounds and a spirited troupe of horses, donkeys, and Icelandic sheep, the ranch becomes Houston’s sanctuary, a place where she discovers how the natural world has mothered and healed her after a childhood of horrific parental abuse and neglect. In essays as lucid and invigorating as mountain air, Deep Creek delivers Houston’s most profound meditations yet on how “to live simultaneously inside the wonder and the grief… to love the damaged world and do what I can to help it thrive.”

Download or read book That s Why I m a Journalist written by Mark Bulgutch and published by D & M Publishers. This book was released on 2015-09-26 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: News stories are like collective memories, encapsulating the most iconic moments in recent history around the world. But to those who work in journalism, up-close involvement with these stories can also be life-changing. In That’s Why I’m a Journalist, veteran broadcaster Mark Bulgutch interviews 44 prominent Canadian journalists, who each share their behind-the-scenes accounts of some of the most memorable stories of their careers and describe the moment that made them say to themselves, “That’s why I’m a journalist.” Although many of the contributors’ stories are related to their roles in the most high-profile events of the 20th and 21st centuries, from the fall of the Berlin Wall to 9/11, here too are reflections on quieter and more intimate moments that had a deep personal impact. Peter Mansbridge talks about a trip to Vimy Ridge on the hundredth anniversary of World War I, Adrienne Arsenault recalls bringing together old friends separated by the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Terence McKenna recounts what it’s like to worry about being kidnapped as part of the job and Wendy Mesley reflects on the satisfaction of asking tough questions—and uncovering the truth. Together, these enthralling and varied accounts provide an intimate understanding of the people we see on camera and hear on the radio. As Bulgutch argues, modern journalism is undergoing existential threats. News has never been more accessible yet, paradoxically, important news has become harder to find, often buried by pseudo-news of celebrity, lifestyle tips and the latest viral video of a water-skiing squirrel. The stories in this book serve as reminders of the importance of real journalists and real journalism.

Download or read book Temperance Creek written by Pamela Royes and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2016-06-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early seventies, some of us were shot like stars from our parents' homes. This was an act of nature, bigger than ourselves. In the austere beauty and natural reality of Hell's Canyon of Eastern Oregon, one hundred miles from pavement, Pam, unable to identify with her parent's world and looking for deeper pathways has a chance encounter with returning Vietnam warrior Skip Royes. Skip, looking for a bridge from survival back to connection, introduces Pam to the vanishing culture of the wandering shepherd and together they embark on a four–year sojourn into the wilderness. From the back of a horse, Pam leads her packstring of readers from overlook to water crossing, down trails two thousand years old, and from the vantages she chooses for us, we feel the edges of our own experiences. It is a memoir of falling in love with a place and a man and the price extracted for that love. Written with deep lyricism, Temperance Creek is a work of haunting beauty, fresh and irreverent and rooted in the grit and pleasure of daily life. This is Pam's story, but the courage and truth in the telling is part of our human experience. Seen through a slower more primary mirror, one not so crowded with objectivity, Pam's memoir, is a kind of home–coming, a family reunion for shooting stars.

Book excerpt: This book argues that neoliberal discourses prevalent in higher education seek to undermine, commodify, and co-opt the radical, transformative work that many gender and women’s studies departments, programs, and centers are doing. The contributors to the collection discuss their responses to these challenges in and out of the classrooms, from mentorship and activism to active allyship and experimental pedagogies. They aim to inspire a new wave of feminist consciousness raising that will encourage transformative ways of engaging with the university and serve as doorways to new understandings of productivity and creativity.
