Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cameo Choices: Trials and Dilemmas of Old Testament Teen Girls—Timeless Examples By: Tamara L. Knowles Cameo Choices is a collection of short stories retelling the stories of minor, and a few major, female persons mentioned in the Old Testament that I, as the author, consider to have been the age the modern world labels as teenagers. Each story is told with the teen girls as the center of the story, its focus. Telling of what happened, I then show how the trials those girls faced are, in essence, the trials and dilemmas teen girls still face today. Taking those examples, I also added Biblical Scripture to encourage today’s teens how to handle those same issues in their own lives. In each story, I have strived to portray those girls whose lives and stories of what happened so long ago (as told in the Bible) as living, real persons who hurt and made good and bad decisions as we still do today. I want to show the relevancy of scripture in not only their personal lives, but our lives today. To be honest, this book has also resonated with anyone related to, who works with, or knows teen girls too, for it offers verses and counsel how to handle some of life’s crises in teen girl’s lives.
Download or read book The Cameo Conspiracy written by George Skelly and published by Waterside Press. This book was released on 2019-12-04 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive book on the case which led to a posthumous pardon. A classic within the True Crime genre. The notorious Cameo Cinema murder case of 1949 is one of Britain’s legal cause célèbres. But for over half a century the convictions of two young men, George Kelly and Charles Connolly, went unchallenged, until — following publication of The Cameo Conspiracy — both were exonerated by the Court of Appeal in 2003. This made it the longest-running miscarriage of justice in British legal history. In this powerful, meticulously-researched account the author painstakingly exposes the evil police conspiracy which sent Kelly to the gallows and Connolly to ten years’ imprisonment. He recounts how the men were framed by corrupt investigators and condemned by an amoral legal establishment, making it a terrible indictment of human wickedness by those supposed to uphold the law. This revised third edition of the definitive book on the case not only reveals a diabolical miscarriage of justice but comprehensively describes the arrests, trials and execution as well as Kelly’s successful posthumous appeal. It also authentically chronicles 1940s Liverpool, its pubs, post-war rationing, shebeens, black market and the colourful and seedy characters of the city’s underworld. Reviews “Skelly is a very good writer”—Norman Mailer “He writes from the heart with his life’s blood”—John Schlesinger “The best book I have ever read”—Former Police Sergeant, Chris Kelly “One man’s relentless hunt for the truth”—Liverpool Echo “A truly brilliant book … memorable and thought-provoking”—John Howley “An impeccable account of the infamous Cameo case”—Professor E Rex Makin As featured in the BBC TV’s Murder, Mystery and My Family.

Book excerpt: Cameo III By: J. Dowler Martin When Jenny thwarts a teenager’s attempt to steal a woman’s purse during an ordinary day at the mall, she has no idea that this one selfless act will catapult her into the center of a murder mystery. A mysterious but kindly Mr. Stearns appears on her doorstep that night, explaining his position as the woman’s attorney and thanking her for her courage in stopping the thief. When Mr. Stearns inexplicably commits suicide shortly after, a baffled Jenny finds herself working alongside Nicholas, one of the United States’ top secret agents, as Nicholas sets out to prove Mr. Stearns’ death was not a suicide, as a personal favor to the President of the United States. But this task soon proves more dangerous—and more deadly—than either could possibly imagine. Solving this case will require impossible cunning and courage, while the fate of the United States hangs in the balance.

Download or read book The Cameo written by Cecil Humphery-Smith and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-08-08 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a social history written around the experiences of the author during the time he was working in Italy in the 1950's and 60's , since when he has seen considerable changes. The bustling seaport of the ancient city of Naples was a recovering from the Second Great War (WW2) devastation. You were told "See Naples and die!" - because of the many plagues of cholera, syphilis and other diseases that had caused so much suffering since earliest times. The post-war drug trafficking had begun in earnest. Some of these criminals had the reputation of helping the poor, but all were involved in smuggling, prostitution and misappropriation of funds and medical supplies from relief agencies. Murders were a daily happening perpetrated by the gangs at warfare with each other, and each anxious to exploit the spoils of War and Peace. High rise flats and offices replace the bombed sites of the days when this story unfolds. Local officials, often blackmailed and corrupt, took every advantage of international aid. To combat communism the US employed the particular brand of Mafia and smugglers, commonly known as the Camorra. . Churches lit by home-made candles fashioned with prayer were always open; on Sundays and Feast days congregations overflowed, the men escaping from the rear pews to smoke their cigarettes on the portico while the sermon admonished their women folk or bore their children. Nowadays churches are mostly closed for lack of that religious Faith for which Neapolitans were renowned in ardor and song. Candles are factory made
Download or read book Film and Television In Jokes written by Bill van Heerden and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-09-02 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Only the Lonely (1991), Ally Sheedy appeases prospective mother-in-law Maureen O'Hara by going along to see the 1939 film How Green Was My Valley--starring Maureen O'Hara. Richard LaGravenese, slighted by critic Gene Siskel over his screenplay for The Fisher King (1991) wrote an unsavory character named Siskel into The Ref (1994). Movies and television shows often feature inside jokes. Sometimes there are characters named after crew members. Directors are often featured in cameo appearances--Alfred Hitchcock's silhouette can be seen in Family Plot (1976), for example. This work catalogs such occurrences. Each entry includes the title of the film or show, year of release, and a full description of the in-joke.
