Book excerpt: The host of CBC Radio’s Under the Influence, Terry O’Reilly, uncovers the surprising power of screwing up The Incredible Hulk was originally supposed to be grey, but a printing glitch led to the superhero’s iconic green colour. NHL hall-of-famer Serge Savard’s hockey career nearly ended prematurely, not because of an injury, but because of an oversight. And the invention of a beloved treat, the Popsicle, began with a simple mistake. In his fascinating and meticulously researched new book, Terry O’Reilly recounts how some of the biggest breakthroughs and best-loved products originated with a mistake. Some people’s “mistakes” led to dramatic life changes—losing their jobs, their companies and often their credibility—only for them to discover new opportunities on the other shore. Other people’s mistakes seemed minor, almost insignificant—and yet they unexpectedly resulted in a famous brand, a legendary band or a groundbreaking work of art. And in a few instances, a mistake actually saved lives. The fear of failing often holds us back. My Best Mistake will change the way you think about screwing up. It will encourage you to accept mistakes and embrace the obstacles that may arise from these errors, leading you to unexpected breakthroughs and silver linings of your own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about getting up after the Fall. It’s about steadfast trust and truth in God and His Word. Even in our weakest moments, God remains the same. He doesn’t change because we encounter situations. This book is about the flesh, feelings, and faith. It’s about God’s faithfulness even when aren’t. It’s about the effects of sin, shame, remorse, regrets, and The Redeeming Power of God's Faithfulness. It’s about the "Get Up" because the fall ain’t final. It’s about the Blessed assurance of conviction, repentance, confession, correction, and counsel. I will forever proclaim God is faithful and can be trusted. In life, we will be tested, tried, and tempted. Those are facts! But the Truth is when we trust the truth of God’s Word, He causes us to triumph in Christ Jesus every time. God can be trusted with our ups, downs, ins, and outs, yes’s, and help me’s. So with great honor and appreciation, I expose my lesson, because faithful is He who has called us He will also do it. He will perfect and perform those things that concern us. Scripture says in Revelations 12:11 KJV “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death”. I pray as you find yourself in life’s twists and turns, you will always know that God cares, He can and He will. He’s no respecter of persons...HE SO LOVED! His love covers a multitude of sins and He can be trusted! He’s not like us, He never gives up on us! So as you read this memoir, know there’s always a Come up and Come out in God. God is the Answer and His Answer is Jesus. Period! Sincerely shared, Love Sister Nina Haliburton (Daughter of the King)

Download or read book Spinster written by Kate Bolick and published by Crown. This book was released on 2015-04-21 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Notable Book “Whom to marry, and when will it happen—these two questions define every woman’s existence.” So begins Spinster, a revelatory and slyly erudite look at the pleasures and possibilities of remaining single. Using her own experiences as a starting point, journalist and cultural critic Kate Bolick invites us into her carefully considered, passionately lived life, weaving together the past and present to examine why­ she—along with over 100 million American women, whose ranks keep growing—remains unmarried. This unprecedented demographic shift, Bolick explains, is the logical outcome of hundreds of years of change that has neither been fully understood, nor appreciated. Spinster introduces a cast of pioneering women from the last century whose genius, tenacity, and flair for drama have emboldened Bolick to fashion her life on her own terms: columnist Neith Boyce, essayist Maeve Brennan, social visionary Charlotte Perkins Gilman, poet Edna St. Vincent Millay, and novelist Edith Wharton. By animating their unconventional ideas and choices, Bolick shows us that contemporary debates about settling down, and having it all, are timeless—the crucible upon which all thoughtful women have tried for centuries to forge a good life. Intellectually substantial and deeply personal, Spinster is both an unreservedly inquisitive memoir and a broader cultural exploration that asks us to acknowledge the opportunities within ourselves to live authentically. Bolick offers us a way back into our own lives—a chance to see those splendid years when we were young and unencumbered, or middle-aged and finally left to our own devices, for what they really are: unbounded and our own to savor.

Now, at eighty-three, when he thought the world could hold no more surprises, he is murdered. As the detective assigned to the case traces his ghost across the city, other spectres appear: a wealthy courtesan; a broken-hearted man in a bowler hat; and an ambitious politician, Samuel, whose lifelong friendship was a source of joy and frustration. In a life of industry and restraint, where is the space for love? As restlessly inventive and absorbing as its protagonist, The Great Mistake is the story of a city, and a singular man, transformed by longing.
