Book excerpt: The basis for the motion picture OtherLife · New York Times Notable Book · Nebula, Endeavour, and Spectrum Award finalist "A stylistic and psychological tour de force."—The New York Times Book Review"Suspenseful and inspiring."—School Library Journal Jackal Segura is a Hope: born to responsibility and privilege as a symbol of a fledgling world government. Soon she'll become part of the global administration, sponsored by the huge corporation that houses, feeds, employs, and protects her and everyone she loves. Then, just as she discovers that everything she knows is a lie, she becomes a pariah, a murderer: a person with no community and no future. Grief-stricken and alone, she is put into an experimental program designed to inflict the experience of years of solitary confinement in a few short months: virtual confinement in a sealed cell within her own mind. Afterward, branded and despised, she returns to a world she no longer knows. Struggling to make her way, she has a chance to rediscover her life, her love, and her soul—in a strange place of shattered hopes and new beginnings called Solitaire. Kelley Eskridge is a novelist, essayist, and screenwriter. Her stories have received the Astraea Award and been adapted for television and movies. She lives in Seattle with her partner, novelist Nicola Griffith.
Download or read book The Happy Hero written by Solitaire Townsend and published by Unbound Publishing. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if saving the world was good for you? That’s my promise in The Happy Hero. That you can be happier and healthier simply by making a difference to the world around you. I call this formula ‘positive+action’, and after decades of researching, writing about and living positive+action I’ve become convinced this the answer to enjoying a better life. I want to tell you stories of the people who have already discovered this secret. And set out the principles for how to feel good by doing good. Which sounds simple. Except that there’s so much that needs to change, where do you even start? Everyday our media finds another international crisis or health scare, another predator or disaster. We are subject to an overwhelming barrage of fear and negativity each time we open our phones or switch on the TV. We have been trained out of happiness by these stories and turned into the victims of our own lives rather than the heroes. The Happy Hero will offer a simple solution: stop worrying about the world and start making it better. Because new research shows that trying to make a difference, even in the smallest ways, can extend your life, improve your relationships and even help you recover from a cold! And luckily, many of the changes we need to make to build a better world, we should want to do anyway. In The Happy Hero I’ll share the emerging evidence of how heroism can make you happy. I’ll also provide practical examples for getting started. This book will even take on the most intractable and complicated problem facing all of us: climate change. And we’ll discover how solving it will solve so much more. The UK’s top medical journal recently reported that the best way to protect your heart and slim your waistline is to count the carbon rather than calories in your food. The US Military insists that renewable energy will make our countries energy independent and help reduce conflict by providing cheaper sources of power to the poorest. In our own lives, we know that saving energy simply saves money. Together we can cut even huge challenges like climate change down to size. And every step and every action will come with their own reward.
Download or read book Solitaire for Complete Beginners written by Robert Ticker and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-13 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solitaire or Klondike Solitaire, 1-Card Draw, has been played for the last couple of centuries with playing cards (just for a little historical perspective). This particular game is so popular that it's often just called Solitaire.After the seven columns of the array are laid out, make all the moves or plays available among the columns and to the Ace piles (also called the foundations or Ace stacks).Then, holding the rest of the cards, called the hand (or stock), face down, make the first pass through them; take one from the top and turn it over for play. If it can't be put either on one of the Ace piles, or on one of the seven columns, put it face up on the waste pile (also called the talon). Continue to the next card in the hand, and play it if you can, or place it on the waste pile face up. Also make other moves as they become available among the seven columns. After going through the whole hand in this manner, turn the waste pile over; it then becomes the hand again.Continue this cycle of making passes through the hand, and playing cards to either the columns or the Ace piles, until no more moves can be made. The game is won if all the cards get moved up to their Ace piles.Get your copy today by scrolling up and clicking Buy Now to get your copy today
Download or read book Desert Solitaire written by Edward Abbey and published by RosettaBooks. This book was released on 2011-08-21 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This memoir of life in the American desert by the author of The Monkey Wrench Gang is a nature writing classic on par with Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring. In Desert Solitaire, Edward Abbey recounts his many escapades, adventures, and epiphanies as an Arches National Park ranger outside Moab, Utah. Brimming with arresting insights, impassioned arguments for wilderness conservation, and a raconteur’s wit, it is one of Abbey’s most critically acclaimed works. Through stories and philosophical musings, Abbey reflects on the condition of our remaining wilderness, the future of a civilization, and his own internal struggle with morality. As the world continues its rapid development, Abbey’s cry to maintain the natural beauty of the West remains just as relevant today as when this book first appeared in 1968.

Download or read book Life S Lessons Learnt written by Sean A O’Reilly and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-05-24 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every person has an interesting life story to tell and I do not claim that my story is unique. I write about my experience of living alone with my grandmother on an Irish farm and why it shaped my national identity. My life-changing move to London and the need to become street wise and still make it to university is covered. I describe how my debating exploits at school and university got me an invitation to The House of Lords and how I met my future wife, and entering a grammar school for the very first time as teacher. My passion for comprehensive education, more enlightened science teaching and my role in senior school management all get an airing as well as my camping, political and sporting adventures. Space is given to how we made lifelong friends with some Germans and our many years of skiing in Austria and Norway. The book also covers the period from early retirement in 1999 to my years teaching in some of Englands elite private schools and why girls really do love chocolate. I describe how I coped with a heart bypass in 2012 and got back to marathon running and took up marathon bike riding for charity. I conclude with my take on the human predicament.
