Download or read book No Other Way written by Don J. Mitchell and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001-06-13 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JD Koepke and Carlos Herrera gave their plot of revenge a lot of thought and planning. Twenty years in the Marine Corp special forces group prepared them for every kind of dirty fighting except political warfare—the dirtiest of all. When your enemy sits in the highest office in the country, you have to adapt your tactics to the new jungle. Many might question the outcome. You could say it was premeditated and cold-blooded, and you could say it was the wrong thing to do. The "wrong" thing to do…? What would you say if you say if the woman you loved were murdered in cold blood and for no good reason? What would you do if you knew who ordered the killing? What would you do if you felt that the guilty person would be allowed to go free? Maybe you would do the same thing JD did. Maybe you would even think of a better way, but for JD, there was "No Other Way".
Download or read book No Other Way Out written by Jeff Goodwin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-06-04 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No Other Way Out provides a powerful explanation for the emergence of popular revolutionary movements, and the occurrence of actual revolutions, during the Cold War era. This sweeping study ranges from Southeast Asia in the 1940s and 1950s to Central America in the 1970s and 1980s and Eastern Europe in 1989. Following in the 'state-centered' tradition of Theda Skocpol's States and Social Revolutions and Jack Goldstone's Revolutions and Rebellion in the Early Modern World, Goodwin demonstrates how the actions of specific types of authoritarian regimes unwittingly channeled popular resistance into radical and often violent directions. Revolution became the 'only way out', to use Trotsky's formulation, for the opponents of these intransigent regimes. By comparing the historical trajectories of more than a dozen countries, Goodwin also shows how revolutionaries were sometimes able to create, and not simply exploit, opportunities for seizing state power.
Download or read book No Other Way To Tell It written by Derek Paget and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 1998-06-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drama documentary is a program category unique to television. Combining the factual approach of documentary with the entertainment values of drama, dramadoc/docudrama has featured in television schedules for over forty years, and has often been the focus of controversy. Questions are frequently asked about how the viewer is to judge between fact and fiction, and whether such programs invade individuals’ privacy. No Other Way to Tell It is an introductory book which defines the form, and reviews its history and development on British and American television. The people who make the programs--television producers, writers, actors and lawyers--give their views, and recent co-production work between Granada TV in Britain and Home Box Office in America is examined. Hostages, a co-production which was bitterly opposed by the British and American hostages released from captivity in Beirut at the beginning of the decade, is used to illustrate the changes that are now taking place within the medium.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The secret to staying true to God's call for your life. Amy Carmichael left everything to become a missionary in India. But then Preena, a girl fleeing sexual slavery, threw herself on Carmichael's protection. Would she follow this new call and give up a religious vocation to become a nursemaid? Into her mind came a picture of Jesus washing his disciples' feet. "The question answered itself and was not asked again." Along with Indian women, Carmichael founded Dohnavur, a community of households that has provided family for hundreds of girls abandoned at birth or sold into prostitution. A modern-day saint, Amy Carmichael has empowered countless women and inspired generations of missionaries and activists. The practical advice and wisdom in these selections, culled from her many books, show why she continues to be a trustworthy spiritual guide for anyone seeking to follow God's path whatever the cost"--
Download or read book I Wouldn T Have It Any Other Way written by Samuel Myers Sr. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-09-30 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it comes to the final analysis, all of us has a story to tell. The problem is that to tell it takes a lot of will and patience. And when you think about it, willingness and patience are not some things that a lot of people have. I titled this book I Wouldnt Have It Any Other Way. This title was not just chosen, there is a reason behind me coming up with this title. After reading this book, no doubt many are saying within yourselves, How in Gods world did he arrive at this title after having experienced all of the things that he has experienced? When I look at my parents, siblings, and those that have shared many of the same experiences that I have, I decided to use all of these things as a stepping-stone, not as a stumbling block. I viewed these occurrences through the eyes of God. When I did, I said that I would not have it any other way. All of the different things that I personally have been through have enabled me to draw closer to God. Having such an intimacy with God has caused me to get to places in Him that I never imagined. I am mindful of the passage of scripture that is found in Romans 8:28. This scripture says that, And we know that all things work together for the good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. This being said, I feel that all things that were mentioned in the content of this book, both the good and not so good, have happened for my betterment. These are the things from my days of my infancy to this present time. With that being said, it was in the plan of God that I was born to Boston and Evelyn Myers. The things that they went through under the sharecropping system and the Jim Crow laws have helped me to value God and the things of God. The loss of my mother at an early age caused me to put my trust in God for my survival. The woodpile experience helped me to prepare for the establishment of a genuine relationship with God. Lastly, the union with Mary Elizabeth was not an accident. This most definitely was in the plan of God. My three sons that came out from this union was also in the plan of God. What can I say? I cannot say anything but that I Will Not Have It Any Other Way.
Download or read book Is There No Other Way Exploring Growth Through Grief written by Emily Adams and published by Cfi. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After experiencing the devastation of losing one of our identical twin boys, I was exposed to a world of sorrow formerly unimagined. With new eyes opened to the heartbreak of the women surrounding me, I undertook the daunting task of researching the universality of suffering, primarily by documenting the stories of fifty women concentrated in a five-mile radius. These accounts of tragedy and hope are intermingled with scriptural accounts, the words of modern-day apostles and prophets, psychological and sociological views, as well as my own experiences. This book is a tapestry of vast human experience, covering a wide array of challenges including infertility, loss, abuse, mental and physical health issues, suicide, financial stress, divorce, addiction, and more. And yet, despite the myriad of trials and accompanying grief, these women exemplify testimonies of faith, resilience, and love. As they move through the three phases of a Grief to Growth Mindset (Victim to Survivor to Contributor), I document helpful tools for embracing, moving through, and learning to assist others because of our sorrows.
Download or read book A Way of Life Like Any Other written by Darcy O'Brien and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This PEN/Hemingway Award winner about coming of age in Los Angeles is a “little gem of a novel . . . a masterwork of Hollywood fiction” (Salon). He’s a child of 1940s Hollywood—specifically, Casa Fiesta, a ranch in the Malibu hills that he shares with his mother, a onetime Broadway headliner, and his father, a star of Westerns. But when his parents fall out of favor in Tinseltown, the narrator of this exquisitely crafted dark comedy loses his youthful idyll and accompanies his lovesick mother on a vodka-soaked international quest for romance and redemption. Meanwhile, his father lives in “diminished circumstances” in California, clinging to his silver-screen mementos, trusting that, someday soon, his ex-wife and his career will return. Tired of tending bar at his mother’s parties and listening to his father’s sad tales of former glory, the boy moves in with his best friend’s family in Beverly Hills. But nothing in La-La Land is quite what it seems, and when his new home turns out to be just as dysfunctional as the last, our teenage hero must somehow learn to accept his parents while finding the courage to break free and become his own man. This award-winning novel, “a kind of Catcher in the Rye for the Cheap Trick generation” (GQ), was cited by the Guardian as one of the “ten best neglected literary masterpieces.” Written by a New York Times–bestselling author who was a child of Hollywood movie stars himself, it has been praised for its “spectacularly deadpan humor” by the Atlantic Monthly and called “an insightful coming-of-age tale” by the Austin Chronicle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mature work of one of America's most respected peace scholars and activists, Is There No Other Way follows the legacy of nonviolence from Mahatma Gandhi to the present day. Michael Nagler unveils a hidden worldwide history of leaders and common folks who successfully responded to violence with persuasion, inclusion, and peaceful actions rather than resorting to threats, hatred, and escalating violence. Michael Nagler definitively and eloquently shows that nonviolent action is a proven and effective force against violence and injustice when it is correctly understood and applied. Finally, he explores nonviolent principles in the context of an increasingly violent American society, from school shootings to the Oklahoma City bombing. After reading this book, you will never think of nonviolence in the same way; it's a strategic, effective tactic for creating positive change.

Download or read book The Word written by Tamiko Powell and published by . This book was released on 2017-12 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE WORD OF GOD Hello there: Thank you for the interest in reading my book. It's based upon a number of true events that have happened in my life. The things I have encountered, dealt with and suffered from-and through. Most importantly, I wrote this book to reveal truths as I understand them and as they've been revealed to me. For instance, the things we do in life, how we live and interact with others, is based upon our knowledge of what's right and what's wrong. And it is those actions along our journey through life which shapes us, as well as those around us, for better or worse. At times it may seem as though everyone is preyed upon, yet it is also important to remember that we can also act like predators. I think it begins to happen because we don't want to see the truth. We narrow our focus and our perception becomes distorted and limited. We perceive what we want to see and hear, and in turn we can become blind and deaf to that which matters most in life: The Word of GOD! I never would have thought that one particular tragedy in my life would have brought something so revelatory, so amazing into my life. This epiphany helped me see the world in an entirely new light. I was given a new beginning. And that gift, that insight is what I want to share with you. Hopefully, it will guide you and give you the same strength it has given me. As you read some of the stories in this book you will begin to understand. Read on-and enjoy!
