Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You all are not following me? But then you are. I moved from the Bay Area, love it and lived it like it's an outer world, as if not part of Earth because all the Earthly rules I knew of before moving there and spending almost two decades there were being thrown out the window like it's no man's business. Almost 2 decades was a breeze for me days weeks, months years flew and past much faster than the Bay Area fog. Who should leave this planet without visiting or living in the Bay Area, at least one month (they won't leave after a month I bet)? Well, now that so many of you are here, coming here in doves, IBM tech companies and the like, I need to tell you a secret: Don't Mess With Texas!!!I keep wondering why would you take the relocation? Texas is not anything like California, and don't even try to make it so. For starters, some Texans I know of do not like Californians. And rightfully so. I'm talking just don't like. Rightfully so if you just say you don't like Californians but that's it. - period. Not that you say so and do something mean, evil hurtful about it. If so, that is sickness, please. So, my first year back in Texas 2017, I actually had a Texas born and raised adult tell me he disliked California, and Californians. And wish it falls off into the Pacific Ocean. I went, OMG. I saw the Pacific Ocean daily for several years when in the bay area, and to hear another human being say that just ended my conversation with him. That said. you will find some logical and reasonable reasons why some do not like Californians. And again, not the sicko kind, but out of concern like - what now! Do not come here planning to change the state. This is Texas and it will remain so. It will never be California. I do not want to hear that someone from California got hurt or something because they did not know of these things. I know better and sharing here. Pay attention to the highlights. Texas is a great state, but quite different from California. I want you to have this book as a guide, stay safe, get resources, and live in harmony. Key Points why you should buy this book and also recommend it: The number one focus is your safety. good Texan culture. Bring in your goodness to progress the culture here. Be aware of the great opportunities, resources. Live in harmony in Texas.

Download or read book Let Her Speak Transcript of Texas State Senator Wendy Davis s June 25 2013 Filibuster of the Texas State Senate written by Wendy Davis and published by Counterpath. This book was released on 2013-09-18 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On June 25, 2013, Texas State Senator Wendy Davis filibustered the Texas State Senate to prevent the passage of a law intended to severely restrict access to abortion in Texas. Reading aloud from a lengthy prepared text, Davis was able to thwart an overwhelmingly Republican, white male majority that many believe is intent on limiting the constitutional right to an abortion to the point of its de facto annihilation. With Let Her Speak, Counterpath presents, for the first time in print, the complete transcript of the filibuster, from Senator Davis’s first words on the Senate floor, to the point where it was decided by the Senate President that she could no longer continue. It is a document alive with American history, the struggle of women to carve out basic human rights, and a heroic 10-hour effort—Davis literally standing in one place, speaking and reading, arguing with other Senators—that infiltrates the timed machinations of the law with the defiant text of one of the most important political movements of our time. To celebrate and extend Davis’s act of protest, readings of the entire transcript were held on Saturday, November 2, and Sunday, November 3, 2013. Counterpath hosted a reading at its venue in Denver, Colorado—videos of this event are interspersed through the text of the transcript below on this web page—with parallel readings at Innisfree Books in Boulder, Colorado, in Durham, NC, at the Spider House Cafe in Austin, Texas, and at Bluestockings Bookstore in New York City. Participation in these readings was open to the public, with each reader being given about 6 pages of the printed transcript to read. Additional readings are currently being planned in New York City and Raleigh, NC. Please feel free to contact Counterpath program coordinator Oren Silverman at [email protected] if you would like to organize a reading or have any questions. Press coverage of these events: An article in Guernica about the Austin reading can be found here. An article in the conservative Townhall is here. Early coverage of the Denver event is here. The Austin reading set up its own website, with a signup sheet and ways to participate from afar. Preliminary coverage of this event is here. Facebook page is here. A snapshot of the Durham reading (video courtesy of Erin Espelie), which took place Saturday, November 2, 2013, is here. With local press coverage here and here. The transcript itself made it onto Christopher Higgs’s 2013 National Book Award longlist at HTML Giant. “An important work of conceptual/performance art and an important work of radical political action against the war on women.”

Download or read book Flying in the Land of Sand and Sun written by James D. Fox and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-02-05 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pilot retires after 38 years from the world’s largest oil company. He accepts a job in another country halfway around the world. His experience flying the cream of business jets is just what his new employer is looking for. He finds it necessary to adapt to his new environment and new associates. The new employer is General Arab Medical Service who supplies workers for the Saudi Arabian Military service. The job entails flying not only high ranking military, medical evacuation, but also members of the Royal Family. The missions are with a mixed crew of copilots, nurses/hostess, doctors, and engineers. Their nationalities are from all over the world. You need to know that in aviation, the world language is English. The mixup due to language difficulties are mostly humorous, but in at least one case almost deadly. A young man from Texas can be surprised from what he finds the people and customs are in New York on his first visit. A young man from New York can find the people and customs in Texas as surprising. A friend and I were standing on a sidewalk looking in a show window in Wichita Falls, Texas when a lady got out of her car and approached us. “Young man can I ask you a question?” “Why yes Mam, what is it.” She pointed at my feet, “Don’t those things hurt you’re feet?” She was asking about the boots I was wearing. “Why no Mam they don’t” She turned with look of not understanding and went back to her car which I noticed was wearing Ohio license plates. That was in 1942 and I still remember what my friend and I talked about later. “You reckon that lady never saw cowboy boots before?” “I don’t know. Maybe she never saw a horse before.” So many years later the same fellow sees people and customs that are completely strange. They speak English, and eat with a knife and fork (most do) and they want to imitate the western world very much. Of course I’m speaking of those that I came in personal contact with. As a reader you must remember their country was only born in 1932. It had no means of entering seriously into world commerce until oil was discovered. Then suddenly they as a country became very rich almost over night. The King made decisions without the help of a Legislature. So, he decided where the money went. The Royal Family got an early cut and infrastructure was on the early list as well. If there was a need for a road, he just told some contractor to build the road, “And make it out of concrete. That asphalt stuff just melts and runs away over here in the desert.” Well, if you have roads then you need cars, so the King calls Japan and says, “Send me over a boat load of those little pickups you make.” “Well, ok your Highness. What color do you want.” “I don’t know, just mix them up, Ok?” The Japanese boat arrived and the King tried to give them to the Bedouins from the desert. The nomads only accepted the white ones, all other colors were sent back to Japan. Everyone know that dark colors are no good in the heat. Do you find that humorous? Well, I do. But what do you expect? A tall apartment building in downtown Riyadh is standing empty on the day of my arrival and on the day of my departure. The King had it built for the Bedouins to use . . . for free. The occasion of celebrating the gift from the King, the Bedouins asked, “Where do we put our camels and goats?” “Well, you won’t need them here.” The gift was rejected straight-away (as the Brits say). Do you find that interesting? Well, I do. How about this. I asked one of my Saudi copilots, “What is your goal?” “What do you mean?” “I mean what are you working for. What do you hope for in the future?” “Oh, I see what you mean. Well, I’m saving my money to buy a camel and move out on the desert.” “You mean you would leave your job in aviation, living in a house with indoor plumbing, electricity, and air conditioning to move into a tent in the desert?” “Sure, what’s wrong with that?” Well, the time

Download or read book In Loving Memory written by Diana Monique Soriano and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-11-21 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a reflection on finding my soul mate at a young age and then losing him to the war in Afghanistan. It will describe my relationship with Bobby Pagan, our deployment to Afghanistan, being notified that he was killed in action, the healing process, and a snippet of how life has been after his loss. My book will deliver a clear insight on what it is like to lose a loved one to war, the events that took place after the casualty report was received, and the journey through healing as I have lived on without my significant other. This book will depict some very painful memories but will also entail a beautiful love story that unfortunately had a tragic end. When my fiance was killed in action, I went through the motions, but I was numb and in utter shock. When I was finally ready to accept and face my loss, I felt so alone because people felt uncomfortable discussing the topic. I want to take my readers on my journey through my eyes, have them feel the raw emotions that I felt throughout the process, and show them what I went through. I also want to shed light on my experience of grief and mourning. I want people who have lost a loved one to know that they are not alone and that there is no time limit on grieving. If that concept alone can bring some sort of comfort to someone, then I'd have accomplished my mission in sharing my story. I pray that this book somehow touches the heart of others, especially those who have experienced a loss like I have. There are no words that can ever make it any better, but know that you are not alone.

Download or read book God Save Texas written by Lawrence Wright and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FINALIST • The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Looming Tower—and a Texas native—takes us on a journey through the most controversial state in America. • “Beautifully written…. Essential reading [for] anyone who wants to understand how one state changed the trajectory of the country.” —NPR Texas is a red state, but the cities are blue and among the most diverse in the nation. Oil is still king, but Texas now leads California in technology exports. Low taxes and minimal regulation have produced extraordinary growth, but also striking income disparities. Texas looks a lot like the America that Donald Trump wants to create. Bringing together the historical and the contemporary, the political and the personal, Texas native Lawrence Wright gives us a colorful, wide-ranging portrait of a state that not only reflects our country as it is, but as it may become—and shows how the battle for Texas’s soul encompasses us all.

Download or read book This Kind of Love written by Kaelin Edwards and published by FaithWords. This book was released on 2021-07-13 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Follow popular YouTubers Kaelin and Kyrah Edwards as they grow from young and in love, believing the hard part of life is over, to adulthood, filled with both challenges and opportunities. Kaelin and Kyrah Edward's viral video of 2016 (Crazy Girlfriend Throws iPhone in the Pool!) thrust them into the spotlight with a velocity that they never could have imagined. Since that time, they have grown up in front of their audience—they have built their relationship, gotten married, grown their family through the births of their two little boys. What began for them as the posting of a prank video has evolved into an engaged viewership of over 2 million on their various social channels that looks to them for guidance in how to make good life decisions. This Kind of Love follows the Edwards' family's adventure as they learn to live through the lens of God's promises and principles, such as: Waiting to have sex until marriage out of obedience to God's plan for our lives. Waiting to take the time to lay a foundation for our future rather than rushing to get on with life. Waiting for God's plan for our lives to be revealed. Waiting for God's timing. Waiting for God to refine our character. Waiting for one another to become who we will be. Waiting for God to come through when trouble comes. In This Kind of Love, Kaelin and Kyrah invite you to join their often tumultuous journey and experience—alongside of them—the joy and beauty that comes through waiting for God to do His work in our lives.

Download or read book Off the Menu written by Christine Son and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-08-05 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this exhilarating debut, three women find that sometimes the best way to nourish your dreams is with friendship—and by daring to try something that’s not on the menu. If there's one thing these three friends can agree on, it's that being a high-achieving Asian-American woman can mean a lot of pressure. Whitney Lee works at a law firm, but no one—not even her best friends—knows about her fantasies of making it as a singer. Restaurateur Hercules Huang is poised to be the next big name in the cooking world, but her strained relationship with her unassimilated father mars her accomplishments. Audrey Henley, the adopted daughter of Texas billionaires, is thrilled when her less-than-wealthy boyfriend proposes, but her mother worries that she’s repeating the mistakes she made decades ago. They're the closest of friends—who still need to learn to trust each other. But through dinners, a weekend getaway, and shared set-ups and let-downs, these three realize that sometimes, to live the life of your dreams, all you have to do is let go of the need to be perfect. "Off the Menu is filled with characters who will resonate with anyone who has struggled to balance pleasing others with following a dream. Christine Son’s attention to cultural details will remind readers of Amy Tan, and the satisfying conclusion of the story is the perfect end to a day spent curled up with this delectable novel."—Tasha Alexander, author of And Only to Deceive and A Fatal Waltz
