Download or read book Opting Out written by Pamela Stone and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2007-05-04 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Noting a phenomenon that might seem to recall a previous era, The New York Times Magazine recently portrayed women who leave their careers in order to become full-time mothers as "opting out." But, are high-achieving professional women really choosing to abandon their careers in order to return home? This provocative study is the first to tackle this issue from the perspective of the women themselves. Based on a series of candid, in-depth interviews with women who returned home after working as doctors, lawyers, bankers, scientists, and other professions, Pamela Stone explores the role that their husbands, children, and coworkers play in their decision; how women’s efforts to construct new lives and new identities unfold once they are home; and where their aspirations and plans for the future lie. What we learn—contrary to many media perceptions—is that these high-flying women are not opting out but are instead being pushed out of the workplace. Drawing on their experiences, Stone outlines concrete ideas for redesigning workplaces to make it easier for women—and men—to attain their goal of living rewarding lives that combine both families and careers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of African American home ground knits together diverse aspects of the American landscape, from elite suburbs and tower apartments to the old homeplaces of the countryside, to the tabletop array of family photos beside the bed of a housebound elder. This fascinating volume focuses on ways African Americans have invested actual and symbolic landscapes with signifigance, gained the means to acquire property, and brought new insight to the interpretation of contemporary, historical, and archaelogical sites. Keep Your Head to the Sky demonstrates how visions of home, past and present, have helped to shape African Americans' sense of place, often under extremely hostile conditions.

This book is like a guide on how to get to heaven, which is not as easy as many of you think. The Messenger: Who told you that only God forgives? I tell you the truth; “If you don’t forgive others for the wrong they do to you and others, our father in heaven will not forgive you. The only thing that any of us should really be talking about or reading about or bragging about is God, not Man! So telling you about my battle with the world shouldn’t be any difference than your battle with the world! But if your battles is different! It’s only because you’re trying to serve both God and money. But wanting to play gods is what made this world and man, unacceptable to God! The bible say bow down to no man. Yesterday & the past Yesterday: there was only one God. Yesterday: God created man in his image. Yesterday: the church was a human body. Yesterday: God made a covenant with his people and made it his law. Yesterday: God’s people gave ten percent for tithes and offerings to forgive their sin. Yesterday: God’s people paid with the blood of animals, because they’re innocent! Just like children who carry no sin. Yesterday: our Lord Jesus Christ was the last of the sacrifice. Yesterday: we played, laughed, cried, sing and prayed together, no matter how bad things got, love always kept us together. Yesterday: God freed us from slavery and took us to the land of milk and honey, so we can be fruitful and live free just like our creator, until the coming of Christ. He became out God and we became his people. Yesterday: we made a vow, “Not only to each other, but also to God! And not for a day, but till deaths do us part. A family that fears God, live only for God! This world is God enemies. Today & the future Today: the world claims many Today: we all became devils Today: the church is a bunch of buildings Today: Satan made a covenant with his people that changed God’s law. Today: Satan trick the whole world into paying for sins Jesus already paid for. Today: Satan people still pay with money, because they chose money to be their God. They have you believing, a good life is a sinful life. Today: Satan will take another life! Everyday will be many sacrifices. Today: no one is faithful to God or each other. We lie, cheat, steal, rob and murder each other. Love today is a thing of the past. Today: we become slaves once again! To men’s the world chose to play gods, male and female. God’s people now living on land where they fight to be equal and free to worship other gods. Our Disobedience made us children of Satan? But Today: You say you hate me! And I rape you! Because you found someone older, younger, and better. The bible says the devil is never satisfied, and that he also a liar! So! Who are u? Our Action Speak Louder than Words, Yesterday and Today

Download or read book Sliding Home written by Susan Cole Ross and published by Piscataqua Press. This book was released on 2020-11-11 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now more than ever, parents and teachers need ideas, encouragement, humor, and solace. "Life is either a daring adventure or it is nothing." So said the great Helen Keller. And so, Susan Cole Ross and her husband Jeff embarked on their greatest adventure as a family and their greatest challenge as educators: A year of homeschooling in the mountains of New Hampshire. Sliding Home chronicles Susan's thoughts as she and Jeff observe, coach, and teach their preteen sons - one with dyslexia who leapt four grade levels in reading that year. This is a mother's memoir, exquisitely caring and personal, but also academically astute. Jean Piaget understood student learning and motivation by watching his children, and so does Susan as her sons explore books, projects, nature, and national pastimes across America. With genuine prose, Susan offers rich insights into child development and education that will benefit teachers and parents supporting student-directed learning. Informed by research but accessible to the layperson, Sliding Home is a timely look at what our children need most to succeed. Susan Cole Ross is a national leader in providing professional development to learning specialists. She was president of the Northeast Association of Learning Specialists (NEALS), where, in 2019, members honored her with the Barbara A. Kenefick Award for Service. With forty years experience teaching students with learning disabilities and training novice teachers for the University Saint Joseph and the Capitol Region Education Council, she has improved countless schools' inclusivity, retention rates, and service to the greater good.
