Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book Title: Seduced Exploited Xed discusses live-in relationships, peer pressure, love and the lack thereof. It goes into the home, the work place, school and society to make an impact on the various age groups, socialites and students. It tells the story of how a child holds together an ideal with faith applying it in areas and amounts to resolve a combination of painful situations that sandwiched her in the middle. The center of attraction in this parabolic lesson is also the model of success in the midst of failure, and one who builds platforms out of her negative experiences in order to add height to her vision of a morally ordered and strategically planned, love laced future: Mollie refused to settle for less. As one of the main characters, she was able to teach her separated parents some basic moral and spiritual principles by subliminally subjecting them to her own strategically placed, wise responses to her friends and by displaying uncanny adult behaviors while addressing concerns with her parent figures, and other adults. Our scene is nestled in the growing, and prosperous city of Kalamazoo, in the state of Michigan. A portion of the scene takes place in the tailor made, Kalamazoo Jr. High School, which was specifically designed for this lesson. Nowhere is there a city, or Jr. High school exempt from, these or similar, behaviors as visited in this parabolic lesson. Every citys school has these types of peer pressures, parent debaucheries, sibling concerns and such like. Every city has someone who meticulously set, or is setting his or her sights on their unwitting conquests, tactically pursuing; intent upon meeting their own vile and insensitive objective, leaving behind, a victim who would ascertain in the aftermath that they had been used, abused and discarded, or simply Seduced Exploited and Xed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both Christians and non-Christians alike are inundated with questions and uncertainties of water baptism. Jesus spoke of water baptism as a Must, [Greek word: dei: it is, (was) necessary]. Jesus said, "Verily, Verily, I say unto thee; You must be born again;" (Greek word: anagennao, pronounced, an-ag-en-nah ?-o), meaning to bear again, or beget again. "Again," is an adverb, meaning, at another time, or on another occasion, repeating what has happened or been done before. Legitimate questions: Is total immersion in water necessary? What is the purpose of immersion water baptism? Does formulation make a difference in baptism, according to the Holy Scriptures? Is baptism just a public confession of faith, somewhat like, coming out of the closet? When do we get the blood washing for our sins? Why do we need to use Jesus' name is baptism? The thief on the cross next to Jesus was never baptized. How did he hang there in the presence of Jesus, who made water baptism mandatory, and make it into the paradise of God without it? According to Jesus in St. John chapter 3, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. Many deceived souls are seduced from the instructions of Christ, exploited through lust of the flesh; distracted through lust of the eyes, tempted from humility through the pride of life, and X'ed from the book of witness and record, by evil performances - dictated by the wiles of the devil. The thief on the cross, next to Jesus, was not born of water and the Holy Ghost was not yet given when he died, according to scriptures.What qualified him? There are biblical accounts of people ending up in heaven or paradise, as well as others ending up in hell...So...What About The Thief?

Book excerpt: Sally Hemings: Given Her Time is an exciting, concise biography tells that tells the extraordinary tale of Sally Hemings, mother of Thomas Jefferson’s enslaved children. Born on the eve of the American Revolution, the war hung over Sally Hemings' childhood. As a teenager, she travelled to Paris to witness the beginning of another revolution. There, she entered a painful bargain and became Jefferson’s concubine in exchange for her children’s freedom. Over thirty-six years she gave birth to seven children, buried three, and raised four, all while hoping their father would make good on his promise. Placing Hemings within the history of American women and slavery, the book acts as an introduction to race, gender, slavery, and freedom in the first fifty years of the American republic. Within this context, Hemings’ life demands an honest reckoning with the national foundations of race, gender, bondage, and freedom from the vantage of a woman for whom nothing was created equal and for whom life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness came with great costs. This textbook includes study questions for students to consider and documents to encourage students to engage with primary source materials. Sally Hemings: Given Her Time is an accessible and lively read for students in women and gender studies, women’s history, and African American Studies.

Book Seduction

    Book Details:
  • Author : Karina Longworth
  • Publisher : HarperCollins
  • Release : 2018-11-13
  • ISBN : 0062440535
  • Pages : 735 pages

Download or read book Seduction written by Karina Longworth and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 735 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The host of the podcast You Must Remember This explores Hollywood’s golden age via the cinematic life of Howard Hughes and the women who encountered him. Howard Hughes’s reputation as a director and producer of films unusually defined by sex dovetails with his image as one of the most prolific womanizers of the twentieth century. The promoter of bombshell actresses such as Jean Harlow and Jane Russell, Hughes supposedly included among his off-screen conquests many of the most famous actresses of the era, among them Billie Dove, Katharine Hepburn, Ava Gardner, Ginger Rogers, and Lana Turner. Some of the women in Hughes’s life were or became stars and others would stall out at a variety of points within the Hollywood hierarchy, but all found their professional lives marked by Hughes’s presence. In Seduction, Karina Longworth draws upon her own unparalleled expertise and an unpreceded trove of archival sources, diaries, and documents to produce a landmark—and wonderfully effervescent and gossipy—work of Hollywood history. It’s the story of what it was like to be a woman in Hollywood during the industry’s golden age, through the tales of actresses involved with Howard Hughes. This was the era not only of the actresses Hughes sought to dominate, but male stars such as Errol Flynn, Cary Grant, and Robert Mitchum; directors such as John Ford, Howard Hawks, and Preston Sturges; and studio chiefs like Irving Thalberg, Darryl Zanuck, and David O. Selznick—many of whom were complicit in the bedroom and boardroom exploitation that stifled and disappointed so many of the women who came to Los Angeles with hopes of celluloid triumph. In his films, Howard Hughes commodified male desire more blatantly than any mainstream filmmaker of his time and in turn helped produce an incredibly influential, sexualized image of womanhood that has impacted American culture ever since. As a result, the story of him and the women he encountered is about not only the murkier shades of golden-age Hollywood, but also the ripples that still slither across today’s entertainment industry and our culture in general. Praise for Seduction “Guaranteed to engross anyone with any interest at all in Hollywood, in movies, in #MeToo and in the never-ending story of men with power and women without.” —New York Times Book Review “The stories Longworth uncovers—about Katharine Hepburn and Jane Russell, yes, but also Ida Lupino and Faith Domergue and Anita Loos—are so rich, so compelling, that they urge you to question how much else in history has been lost within the swirling vortex of Great Men.” —Atlantic “A compelling and relevant must-read.” —Entertainment Weekly

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mad Max Effect provides an in-depth analysis of the Mad Max series, and how it began as an inventive concoction of a number of influences from a range of exploitation genres (including the biker movie, the revenge film, and the car chase cinema of the 1970s), to eventually inspiring a fresh cycle of international low budget 'road warrior' movies that appeared on home video in the 1980s. The Mad Max Effect is the first detailed academic study of the most famous and celebrated post-apocalypse film series, and examines how a humble Australian action movie came from the cultural margins of exploitation cinema to have a profound impact on the broader media landscape.

Book The History of the Adventures of Joseph Andrews and of His Friend Mr  Abraham Adams

Download or read book The History of the Adventures of Joseph Andrews and of His Friend Mr Abraham Adams written by Henry Fielding and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1999 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I beg as soon as you get Fielding's Joseph Andrews, I fear in Ridicule of your Pamela and of Virtue in the Notion of Don Quixote's Manner, you would send it to me by the very first Coach.' (George Cheyne in a letter to Samuel Richardson, February 1742) Both Joseph Andrews (1742) and Shamela (1741) were prompted by the success of Richardson's Pamela (1740), of which Shamela is a splendidly bawdy parody. But in Shamela Fielding also demonstrates his concern for the corruption of contemporary society, politics, religion, morality, and taste. Thesame themes - together with a presentation of love as charity, as friendship, and in its sexual taste - are present in Joseph Andrews, Fielding's first novel. It is a work of considerable literary sophistication and satirical verve, but its appeal lies also in its spirit of comic affirmation,epitomized in the celebrated character of Parson Adams. This revised and expanded edition follows the text of Joseph Andrews established by Martin C. Battestin for the definitive Wesleyan Edition of Fielding's works. The text of Shamela is based on the first edition, and two substantial appendices reprint the preliminary matter from Conyers Middleton'sLife of Cicero and the second edition of Richardson's Pamela (both closely parodied in Shamela). A new introduction by Thomas Keymer situates Fielding's works in their critical and historical contexts.

Book Human Trafficking and Security in Southern Africa

Download or read book Human Trafficking and Security in Southern Africa written by Richard Obinna Iroanya and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the links between human trafficking and national security in Southern Africa. Human trafficking violates borders, supports organised crime and corrupts border officials, and yet policymakers rarely view the persistence of human trafficking as a security issue. Adopting an expanded conceptualisation of security to encompass the individual as well as the state, Richard Obinna Iroanya lays the groundwork for understanding human trafficking as a security threat. He outlines the conditions and patterns of human trafficking globally before moving into detailed case studies of South Africa and Mozambique. Together, these case studies bring into focus the lives of the ‘hidden population’ in the region, with analysis and policy recommendations for combating a global phenomenon.

Book Strangers at Our Door

Download or read book Strangers at Our Door written by Zygmunt Bauman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-06-20 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Refugees from the violence of wars and the brutality of famished lives have knocked on other people's doors since the beginning of time. For the people behind the doors, these uninvited guests were always strangers, and strangers tend to generate fear and anxiety precisely because they are unknown. Today we find ourselves confronted with an extreme form of this historical dynamic, as our TV screens and newspapers are filled with accounts of a 'migration crisis', ostensibly overwhelming Europe and portending the collapse of our way of life. This anxious debate has given rise to a veritable 'moral panic' - a feeling of fear spreading among a large number of people that some evil threatens the well-being of society. In this short book Zygmunt Bauman analyses the origins, contours and impact of this moral panic - he dissects, in short, the present-day migration panic. He shows how politicians have exploited fears and anxieties that have become widespread, especially among those who have already lost so much - the disinherited and the poor. But he argues that the policy of mutual separation, of building walls rather than bridges, is misguided. It may bring some short-term reassurance but it is doomed to fail in the long run. We are faced with a crisis of humanity, and the only exit from this crisis is to recognize our growing interdependence as a species and to find new ways to live together in solidarity and cooperation, amidst strangers who may hold opinions and preferences different from our own.
