Book excerpt: From the Eyes of a Little Girl this incident occurred when the writer was only 11 years old. The Bleeding Palm Tree, No Means No! This story is about a beautiful woman, Tha Kaday, who struggled with the custom of the country, in concert with weaning a child and engaging in sexual activities during that period from the birth of the child to at least a year or two of nursing the child, a custom her husband refused to accept. The conflict between the couple escalade to physical, mental and sexual abuse and rape, in such a way the entire village intervened to stop the abuse. As a child I witnessed women suffer physical, mental and sexual abuse from the men they loved and had children for but never to the degree of murder. I watched women suffer silently, because of the children, they will say. Follow Tha Kaday as she forgave her husband more than Seventy times Seven (70 X 7), tells her story from the grave. I cannot attempt to tell my story of abuse and shame without first helping Tha Kaday, tell hers. It was her story as a child that inspired me not to surrender my heart, soul and body to any man, relationship, family or friend. Through her, I also learned to run away, therefore, I am still alive. To all that read this book, I want you to accept the fact that domestic violence is real and exist in every country, society, culture and race. This story will help those who are presently in or are thinking to go back to an abusive relationship to think twice not to end up like our heroin, who held her honor to protect her child but believed her husband will give in and help her raise a healthy child, fell for his lies and ended up dead. The writers desire is for the reader to come away with the hope that people will learn to love each other enough not to course harm to another human being especially if they proclaim to become husband and wife or partners for life.
Download or read book Bleeding Palm written by Michael A. Quintana and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The palm tree is a typical plant of tropical climates. They are abundant in the islands of the Caribbean Sea. There are many variations of this kind of tree. The Royal Palm tree is one of them. It is the tallest, slenderest and most beautiful of the palm trees. It is also the national plant of the island of Cuba. Its leaves are huge and of a deep olive green color. The native Indians of the island used them to make the roofs of their shacks before the Spaniards arrived. The typical Cuban peasant followed the same tradition. Well intertwined, they formed a formidable barrier against the strongest showers, and only hurricanes could persuade them to leave their guarding positions. Once, in 1959, Fidel Castro was asked if his revolution was tinted with the classical red color of communism. He answered that his revolution was not red, but that his revolution had the green color of their uniforms and the Royal Palm trees. In 1962, he finally declared that he had always been a Marxist-Leninist, and that he would be one until his death. Ever since that time, the color of the palm trees in Cuba has been tinted red with the blood of so many Cubans spilled in the name of that sadistic doctrine.

Download or read book Transport in Plants I written by M.H. Zimmermann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When WILHELM RUHLAND developed his plan for an Encyclopedia of Plant Physiol ogy more than three decades ago, biology could still be conveniently subdivided into classical areas. Even within plant physiology, subdivisions were not too difficult to make, and general principles could be covered sufficiently in the two introductory volumes of the Encyclopedia on the physical and chemical basis of cell biology. But the situation changed rapidly even during the 12-year publication period of the Encyclopedia (1955-1967). The new molecular direction of genetics and structural research on biopolymers had an integrating effect on all other biological fields, including plant physiology, and it became increasingly difficult to keep previously distinct areas separated. RUHLAND'S overall plan included 18 volumes and about 22,000 pages. It covered the entire field of plant physiology, in most cases from the very beginning. But, as each volume appeared, it was clear that its content would soon be outdated.

Download or read book The Hatchet s Blood written by Marc R. Schloss and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 1992-11 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ritual complexes of the Ehing, a farming people of southern Senegal, embody an elaborate set of prohibitions on social behavior and prescribe the general rules of Ehing social organization. Power is distributed and maintained in Ehing culture by the concept of Odieng ("hatchet"), which as a spirit acts upon human beings much as an ax does upon a tree, falling from above to punish its victims for transgression. Marc Schloss's ethnography of the Ehing is a study of the meaning of Odieng's power, explaining why its rules are so essential to the Ehing way of life.
