Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • An exhilarating blend of autobiography and mythology, of world and self, of hot rage and cool analysis. First published in 1976, it has become a classic in its innovative portrayal of multiple and intersecting identities—immigrant, female, Chinese, American. • NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD WINNER “A classic, for a reason.” —Celeste Ng, bestselling author of Little Fires Everywhere and Our Missing Hearts, via Twitter As a girl, Kingston lives in two confounding worlds: the California to which her parents have immigrated and the China of her mother’s “talk stories.” The fierce and wily women warriors of her mother’s tales clash jarringly with the harsh reality of female oppression out of which they come. Kingston’s sense of self emerges in the mystifying gaps in these stories, which she learns to fill with stories of her own. A warrior of words, she forges fractured myths and memories into an incandescent whole, achieving a new understanding of her family’s past and her own present.

With those few words in August 1973, Sarah Chambers, her husband Richard, and their good friends Alice and Dick started a journey that took them far beyond anything they could possibly imagine. They explored the unseen realm of the spiritual world with their teacher "Michael." Along with good friend Eugene Trout, they created a new spiritual teaching - based in love - that helps people become more of who they truly are. The group kept transcripts of their meetings and those transcripts were copied and passed around to their friends and coworkers, then copied and passed to many others over the years. Volume 2 contains compilations, drawings, charts, information about the group members and a history of the Michael Teachings. . . . "Why am I here?" someone asked one night. Michael answered, "To hear the words you didn't hear 2,000 years ago. Maybe this time, you will listen."
Download or read book The Theory and Practice of Irregular Warfare written by Andrew Mumford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an analysis of key individuals who have contributed to both the theory and the practice of counterinsurgency (COIN). Insurgencies have become the dominant form of armed conflict around the world today. The perceptible degeneration of the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan into insurgent quagmires has sparked a renewal of academic and military interest in the theory and practice of counterinsurgency. In light of this, this book provides a rigorous analysis of those individuals who have contributed to both the theory and practice of counterinsurgency: ‘warrior-scholars’. These are soldiers who have bridged the academic-military divide by influencing doctrinal and intellectual debates about irregular warfare. Irregular warfare is notoriously difficult for the military, and scholarly understanding about this type of warfare is also problematic; especially given the residual anti-intellectualism within Western militaries. Thus, The Theory and Practice of Irregular Warfare is dedicated to analysing the best perceivable bridge between these two worlds. The authors explore the theoretical and practical contributions made by a selection of warrior-scholars of different nationalities, from periods ranging from the French colonial wars of the mid-twentieth century to the Israeli experiences in the Middle East; from contributions to American counter-insurgency made during the Iraq War, to the thinkers who shaped the US war in Vietnam. This book will be of much interest to students of counterinsurgency, strategic studies, defence studies, war studies and security studies in general.

Download or read book From Young Braves to Mighty Warriors written by Ron Bales and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Young Braves to Mighty Warriors is my best recollection and story of how we, as a community, a school, and a group of determined and dedicated young men, overcame incredible obstacles and challenges to build a powerful football program that won the Group A Virginia High School League State Championship in 1970 and four consecutive Region C championships in the six short years that I had the privilege of serving as head football coach. This book is also a tribute to the mental toughness and dedication to a common cause of hundreds of young men who proudly wore the orange-and-black for the Chilhowie Warriors from 1966 to 1973.
Download or read book Crafting Infinity written by Rory T. Cornish and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-14 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crafting Infinity is a multi-disciplinary collection of essays that investigates how aspects of traditional Irish culture have been revised, retooled, and repackaged in the interest of maintaining the integrity of Irish myth tales, artistic values, spiritual foundations, and historic icons. From perspectives on early Irish Christianity to national mythology, traditional Irish music, Irish history represented in film, literary inventiveness, and evidence of the Irish diaspora, this study examines how artists, writers, theorists, and emigrants from Ireland re-interpreted, and reshaped Irish traditions, often invoking Ireland’s relationship with other nations before it acquired independence. Because with each retelling of legend, reworking of musical styles, and recreating of historic events, there has been inventiveness and alterations, inconsistencies affirm that the continuators of Irish tradition both preserve and alter their source materials and reshape iconic figures. The end product of these endeavors is tantamount to infinity, for just as Standish O’Grady, William Butler Yeats, James Joyce, Elizabeth Bowen, Jennifer Johnston, and Edna O’Brien craft fiction or rewrite folklore, with Irish characters and themes, while borrowing from other cultural wellsprings (such as Orientalism or French design), so exporters of Irish art forms and dispositions towards musical style, nationalism, and spirituality necessarily reconfigure the original, as no tradition can remain pure indefinitely. Each facet of Irish culture takes on the quality of a Celtic knot, artistically infinite in its circular design, and indestructible in its universal presence and recognition. In Crafting Infinity, each contributor dismantles a quality of Irish history, culture, or the arts, revealing how a multiplicity of interpretations can be applied to Irish traditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus said, "Before MY return, many FALSE PROPHETS shall arise and shall DECEIVE MANY." With so many different religions to choose from, they can't all be true or correct! Some must be false! This fact proves that Christ's warning is true. Let no preacher deceive you! A good sermon based on God's Word includes scriptures from the Bible, with chapter and verses! After hearing a sermon, you should check to see if the verses were used out of context. If you don't, you are actually betting that what you heard is true. But maybe it isn't. Maybe he or she doesn't really know what the truth is. False prophets always use scripture out of context to promote their own version of their religion. They twist the meaning of each verse so they can imply their own meaning and deceive believers. Have you ever been lied to? How did you feel after you found out? Have you ever lost a bet? How about a sports bet? How about a bet between you and the devil? Don't bet your soul on maybes! Check with the Bible before accepting any sermon as true! People are too busy to spend hours searching the Bible to find verses of scripture so they can check to see if the scriptures in the sermon were used correctly. This book was designed to enable you to locate any chapter and verse quickly so you can check to see if the verses were used correctly, or if they were twisted out of context. If you use this book, you won't need to research for hours or days. It will only take minutes to locate many of the most important subjects. Holy Scripture does affirm which version of the Bible is the most accurate! When can believers expect the Rapture to occur? Should believers expect Christ to tarry? Will the trodden down of Jerusalem actually be the beginning of the last seven years? Did Jesus really offer an escape to believers from the tribulation? What does the Bible say about global warming? Is carbon dioxide really the cause? Will the Jews be at risk of being murdered as they look for their Messiah? What did Jesus say about bigfoot, hybrids, and aliens? Why does God allow wars? How do you win the battle over your inner voices? Why doesn't God answer certain prayers? Why does God allow natural disasters to cause so much suffering and pain, death and destruction? The Bible does tell us when to expect Christ's return! How valuable are the Dead Sea Scrolls? Does the curse of the second commandment affect you? Make sure you spend eternity in heaven with God the Father and his Son, Jesus Christ!
