Book excerpt: C.A.S.T., the Covert Alliance of Selective Termination, is a secret government society dedicated to exterminating the most dangerous criminals in the United States. For decades, this clandestine band of legal assassins, organized and governed as a classic chivalric society, has "silenced" thousands of dangerous persons, ranging from serial killers to terrorists. But what if one of those killers takes revenge? As C.A.S.T. member Vincent Putnam pursues his calling to rid the world of evil, he must also do battle with a special set of demons. As a youth, he was plagued by hostile hallucinations and vivid dreams. Only under the tutelage of an esteemed and determined master of the C.A.S.T. House of Gabriel did Vincent, as a knight in training, attain a sense of control over his debilitating schizophrenia. Still, he will never be totally free of the nightmares, and as he discovers, the world will never be free of evil. Having received a vision that named him "Protector of Children," Vincent, the once-forsaken and now formidable knight, must embark on mission of revenge against an especially despicable enemy, an infamous serial killer who has murdered his beloved mentor. This is the tale of a quest, a look into the mind of a man who challenges the boundaries of reality and sanity and the meaning of identity.
Download or read book Perils of Protection written by Susan Honeyman and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2018-12-18 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unrecognized in the United States and resisted in many wealthy, industrialized nations, children’s rights to participation and self-determination are easily disregarded in the name of protection. In literature, the needs of children are often obscured by protectionist narratives, which redirect attention to parents by mythologizing the supposed innocence, victimization, and vulnerability of children rather than potential agency. In Perils of Protection: Shipwrecks, Orphans, and Children's Rights, author Susan Honeyman traces how the best of intentions to protect children can nonetheless hurt them when leaving them unprepared to act on their own behalf. Honeyman utilizes literary parallels and discursive analysis to highlight the unchecked protectionism that has left minors increasingly isolated in dwindling social units and vulnerable to multiple injustices made possible by eroded or unrecognized participatory rights. Each chapter centers on a perilous pattern in a different context: “women and children first” rescue hierarchies, geographic restriction, abandonment, censorship, and illness. Analysis from adventures real and fictionalized will offer the reader high jinx and heroism at sea, the rush of risk, finding new families, resisting censorship through discovering shared political identity, and breaking the pretenses of sentimentality.

Download or read book Father The Family Protector written by James B. Stenson and published by Scepter Publishers. This book was released on 2017-03-31 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Father, The Family Protector, Educator James Stenson explores how fathers exercise their powerful and particularly masculine contribution to family life. His research comes from more than twenty years of working with families from two highly successful independent secondary schools for boys that he helped establish, The Heights School in Washington D.C., and Northridge Preparatory School in Chicago. As headmaster, he made it his business to know hundreds of families intimately studying their family lives, watching their children grow into maturity, very often successfully, but sometimes not. Through countless conversations with fathers and mothers, he tried to account for the differences, looking for patterns of family life among those parents who triumphed with their children. What did these successful men and women have in common? What did they manage to do right? Most important: what could other parents learn from their experience? This wisdom of fatherhood is what this book is all about. It explains the main obstacles in today's society that undercut a father's teaching role, and tells men what they could do to overcome them. Then within this framework, James Stenson spells out how successful fathers deal with their children in the more crucial areas: family rules, discipline, schooling, sports, recreation, the media, and ongoing teamwork with one's wife. In short, this book provides the guidance that will help any father to carry out a serious responsibility - that of protector of his family. Listen to author James Stenson speak about "Successful Fathers".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Knights of St. Nicholas, Protector of the Children: A Comprehensive Guide for Defending Christian Schools "Saint Nicholas is protector of little children and youths first of all from evil-the evil of adults, who are responsible for their own evil plans. He is the protector of all from the evil one, who works through us weak humans." Christian Schools and Christian Churches have become the direct and deliberate targets of minions of Satan.

Markel is a Certified Protection Specialist and has been a Professional Bodyguard in the United States and overseas. Mr. Markel wrote this manual to address not only the problem, but to provide true solutions that can be implemented immediately to protect our children from evil.

Download or read book Saint Guinefort written by Rev Gary K. Sturni and published by . This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story about a greyhound near Lyons, France, c.1234, becoming a saint (feast day August 22), with people flocking to her shrine asking for protection for their children seems like material for a children's book -- except that key elements have made its presentation as a children's story problematic --until now. "It is often said that if dogs don't go to heaven, I'm not sure that I want to go there either. With the story of Guinefort, we have an opportunity to rejoice that God has obviously sent dogs from heaven to be among us with saintly love and devotion. Certainly my dogs, Ruth and Naomi, would agree. The Rt. Rev. Don E. Johnson, Episcopal Bishop of West Tennessee The unique Christian legend of the loyal dog Guinefort is now retold by Father Sturni and George Mellios with both care and an energetic pace. This story is further enhanced with clear and boldly colored illustrations by Logan Walker. The result is a modern recreation of a children's Mediaeval illuminated "passional" or a recounting of the life of a saint. - E. A. Carmean, Jr., Art Historian and Cultural Essayist "Dear Dr. Sturni: I am looking for an icon of St.Guinefort for my privatechapel. And, note, no dog is mere child's play. Dogs may be humankind's greatest contribution to the world." The Rev'd J. Timothy West
Download or read book Reading Tamora Pierce The Protector of the Small written by John Lennard and published by Humanities-Ebooks. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tamora Pierce is a prolific and very unusual modern master of fantasy for young adults and the first such author to appear regularly on the New York Times bestseller lists. The four books making up The Protector of the Small are the 9th to 12th (of 15) novels set in Tortall, and follow the progress of Keladry of Mindelan from the first openly female page in more than a century to her attainment of Knighthood and introduction to war. The Notes cover Tamora Pierce's life and work; the world of Tortall (including the geography, cast, and neighbouring cultures); the strange menagerie of immortal creatures who may be friend or foe; the pantheon of interfering multicultural god/desse/s; knighthood; and the school series format that Pierce adapts. The well-illustrated Annotations cover unusual words, ideas, and objects mentioned, real-world cultural, historical, and literary references, and the major thematic issues that develop throughout the quartet. First Test, Page, Squire, and Lady Knight are all covered on a chapter-by-chapter basis. The Essay considers The Protector of the Small as a revisioning of Song of the Lioness, the structure of the quartet, and the nature of Blayce and the killing devices. A Note on Fanfiction surveys the enormous Tortall archive of fanfic as a resource for readers of the quartet, and a Bibliography provides checklists both of Pierce's works and of writing about her. Tamora Pierce read the book in manuscript and has generously allowed her comments to be published, including new extracanonical facts about Jump, women in combat, the death magic that powers the killing devices, and much more.
