In Landmarks, geography takes centrestage, as eight short plays explore the spaces that have been claimed, colonised, and trespassed by those at the margins of the mainstream.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God's Promises are More Real than Emotions, Circumstances, or Problems. What is life throwing at you? Have you made some seriously wrong choices? This memoir is the beautiful story of a soul nourished and sustained by God's presence through challenges and difficulties of life-cancer, the death of parents, the piercing pain of an adult son's death by suicide, and coping with the aftermath of bad decisions. God wants us to do only one thing-trust him! A Place That's Warm and Beautiful speaks of a personal relationship with the Lord. Beyond the empty religion of dos and don'ts, there is a fellowship with Jesus that beckons us to a life of fulfillment and peace. Regret and shame are dark emotions that are better not experienced, but God is the chain breaker. Doing his will and in his way can turn some pretty crummy things into something good. A journey to truth led by God. True freedom is liberation from those outside forces that include illegal drugs, promiscuous sex, and addictions that control lives and make people miserable. True freedom is God in control. Failure is not fun, but it is fixable. Sometimes, we have to experience failure in order to realize our dependence on God and let him take over. This story is about a journey to faith that will inspire and uplift you to move forward-a spiritual journey that has revealed a purpose on earth, both personally and professionally; an awareness of God; and a closer relationship with Jesus. The Lord knows the past, present, and future. Trust him and take each step-one at a time. May all who read this memoir be touched and enlightened by the singular spiritual intuitive gift of its author, who has shared so transparently with such a childlike gratitude, the story of a soul "that's warm and beautiful" in God.

Download or read book The Book of Joe written by Jeff Wilser and published by Crown. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ultimate guide to President Joe Biden, filled with all the fun, all the inspiration, and none of the malarkey. The aviators. The Amtrak. The bromance with Barack Obama. Few politicians are as iconic, or as beloved, as Joe Biden. Now, in The Book of Joe, Biden fans and political junkies alike have the ultimate look at America’s 46th president. Covering the key chapters in Biden’s life and career—and filled with classic Biden-isms, including “That’s a bunch of malarkey” and “I may be Irish, but I’m not stupid”—this entertaining blend of biography, advice, and muscle cars explores the moments that forged Joe Biden, and what they can teach us today. But along with this “Wisdom of Joe,” the book also reveals the inspirational story of a man whose life has been shaped by his father’s advice: Get back up. Time after time, Biden has bounced back from both personal heartbreaks and professional disappointments, and just like Joe, sometimes we all have to dust ourselves off and fight back. Packed with lessons we need now more than ever, The Book of Joe is both a celebration of a revered political figure and a testament to the power of a life filled with integrity, perseverance, and plenty of ice cream.

Download or read book Sports Talk written by Alan Eisenstock and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Journey inside the World of Sports Talk Radio Their voices explode over the airwaves -- with names like Mike and the Mad Dog, the Stinkin' Genius, Hacksaw, and JT the Brick. They broadcast in drive time and downtime, from rush hour to the dead of night. And yet, millions of fans tune in around the clock to hear their favorite larger-than-life radio personalities rant, rave, critique, predict, and mix it up with callers -- the dedicated fans of sports talk radio. Never before has this cloistered world opened its doors to a no-holds-barred, behind-the-scenes, full-access look at itself. Noted journalist (and fan) Alan Eisenstock embarks on a journey through the American sports radio landscape and gives readers a front-row seat -- from breakfast at the kitchen table of Eddie Andelman, Boston's godfather of sports radio, to the WFAN commissary with Mike and the Mad Dog in New York; from the plush home game room of Chicago's hot dog-vendor-turned-#1 DJ Mike North to the empty 3 AM studio parking garage with nationally syndicated JT the Brick. Eisenstock goes into the studios, homes, and lives of these and many other of America's hottest and most-listened-to sports talk hosts. Filled with hilarious and entertaining tales of what makes these hosts tick -- as well as the unbelievable stories of how they got where they are today -- Sports Talk paints a picture the fans never see. Eisenstock shows us the blood, sweat, and tears of program directors with their reputations on the line; hosts searching for career security; and station managers who are always eyeing the bottom line. And, of course, there are stories of the rabid, obsessed, and off-the-wall fans. Whether you're a sports fan or a sports talk junkie, you'll be hooked from the first page.
