Download or read book Sketching Guantanamo written by Janet Hamlin and published by Fantagraphics Books. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Camp X-Ray in the U.S. military base in Guantanamo, Cuba, opened in January, 2002 in the wake of the 9-11 attacks to house alleged terrorists ― off the American mainland, unaccountable to the U.S. judiciary ― in “indefinite detention.” Newer and more permanent prisons were later built miles away, and continue to house terrorist suspects today. The United States government does not allow photographs of the military trials at Guantanamo, but beginning in 2006, Janet Hamlin went to Guantanamo as a courtroom sketch artist to serve as a visual witness to the courtroom prceedings and provide worldwide media with artwork drawn during them. She has been the only sketch artist covering these trials from 2006 to the present time. Sketching Guantanamo is both a collection of her most potent and revealing sketches drawn during this period, as well a chronicle of her experience at Guantanamo. Before entering the viewing booth behind multi-paneled soundproof glass in the back of the court, Hamlin is daily subjected to thorough searches, wanding, and metal detecting in three separate checkpoints. The U.S. government and even detainees can demand that certain details be ”smudged” or even changed. When one detainee who had just pled guilty demanded that sketches of him not be released, Hamlin staged a four-hour sit-in until the authorities relented. Hamlin’s drawings and her accompanying text provide rare insight into the military courts of Guantanamo. The trials are considered notorious and historic, among the most carefully censored trials in recent U.S. history, and sketches are the only visuals the world is allowed to see. Sketching Guantanamo features nearly 150 drawings, as well as photographs of the surrounding facilities that enhance the artist’s illustrations and her running commentary.

Book excerpt: Out of the Sun is the stirring saga of two young men--one an American and the other a German--whose love of flying brings them together in the killing skies over France during World War I. Luke Truman comes from a long line of farmers. He loves and respects the land and takes pride in what he does. Luke's roots run as deep into the Missouri soil as do the cottonwoods along the river. When pilot Red O'Day practically lands on Luke while he's plowing a field, Luke takes it as a sign to pursue his increasing fascination with aviation. Heinrich Mueller longs for the day when he can finally fulfill his dream of becoming a pilot with the German High Command. He doesn't mind that he is committed to spend the next four years at the university to study engineering. In fact, he looks forward to it as a stepping-stone to his career in aviation. Years later, in the airspace over St. Mihiel, France, the two airmen encounter each other in a fierce battle. Even though they've never met and know they will probably never see each other again, they share an understanding. They are simply two young men whose love of flying brought them together--both of them knights of the sky.
Download or read book Maroon written by Rachel Stevens and published by Minea kustannus. This book was released on 2023-11-02 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heroic, heartbreaking and disorientating, this is a story of true love at its rawest. Maroon raises questions the human heart and mind might not be ready for. A single amethyst tear fell from his sapphire eyes. “All I ever did was love you,” he whispered as he was gazing up at the fire. He would never have guessed how things would turn around, when he'd promised to create Earth together. Maroon shows us that perspective is everything, and love isn't always what you think. Lucifer loved God so much, he took over the world. Now God assembles a new army for the final battle. Will there be one and whose side will you be on? Maroon is a work of fiction that is loosely based on an assumed true story.

Book excerpt: The words and thoughts expressed in these poems are my attempt to show the love I have for my Lord Jesus Christ. His Spirit indwells my heart and as He speaks of Christ and not of Himself so I must do likewise. There are not words to adequate describe the Lord. There are not words that can measure His grace and mercy. There are not words that can describe the wonders of heaven for those who have placed their faith in Him. I long to hear two words at the end of life. "Well done."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wasn't sure how long I was asleep but the next event that occurred has altered the course of my life! I remember jumping up screaming in excruciating pain and howling my wife's name as she towered over me holding a now empty cooking pot of steaming hot boiling water that she had just finished dumping onto my body. I gasped to pull off the rest of my T-shirt that had split in half and embedded into my melting flesh. As I was doing this, my wife's eyes pierced my soul as she looked at me and murmured in a low-pitched tone, "do you want some more?" I faintly recall being wheeled through a hospital emergency room and the smell of my boiled flesh. I remember looking up at the bright lights and thinking to myself that God said he would put no more on us than we are able to bear. I knew I couldn't bear this. I lay there shivering from hot and cold bursts of tormenting pain, waiting to take my last breath. As tears started pouring down my face, I heard the voice of God say, "Forgive her."

Download or read book Gaian Angels Book 1 The Weavers Awake written by Iom Kosta and published by Gaian Angels. This book was released on 2011-12-17 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We scour the heavens in search of visitors, but what if they’re already here amongst us—just waiting for their awakening? And what if…you’re one of them? This is the true story of a young visionary who predicted the overwhelming extent of the present climatic cataclysm, and this book is now proof since he published it in 2011, when we still believed the collapse of our civilisation was impossible. As early as 2002 he screamed that we had to change our ways, and went right up to the gates of death to find an antidote to his Apocalyptic visions. Of course, he was considered even crazier than the few alarmist scientists that were around at the time. To continue spreading the message and escape psychiatric internment, he eventually had the idea of recounting his extreme experiences mingled with an imaginary world. So here is the diary of a crazy “indigo being” whose error was to be right too soon—because today, only real madmen still deny the environmental tragedy in progress. Maybe it’s not too late to read it? But don’t worry; this is first and foremost an extraordinary journey towards hope, which may be summarised as follows: Arcadia leaves her idyllic Sylvan City to go to Earth and join the team of scouts charged with rescuing humanity, which is in danger of extinction. She comes to life as the author and observes our society from a different perspective. But this spiritual struggle across time and dimensions has unexpected repercussions. Who is really pulling the strings? Perhaps the Akashas: the angelic entities. What is their real intention? Will humanity survive? Maybe Consciousness will disappear...or never see the light of day? This ‘journey of investigation’ pushes the boundaries of reality to embrace a universal, ecological spirituality. Much more than a warning about the wasteland that the human race is preparing for its own future, the Gaian Angels Cycle is a new answer to the eternal question: what is the meaning of life?

Download or read book Oxford Textbook of Palliative Care for Children written by Ann Goldman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-24 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first edition of this book was the first authoritative, systematic and comprehensive text to define the increasingly important and evolving specialty of paediatric palliative care. It explores both the clinical aspects and the multidimensional and holistic nature of care for the dying child, based on the knowledge that all human experience has a physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual impact. The book covers ways of providing support in all of these areas both for the child, families, and carers, recognising the importance of teamwork and taking an evidence-based approach. The Oxford Textbook of Palliative Care for Children is about the care of children for whom cure of their underlying disease is not possible. It encompasses the physical management of symptoms such as pain and nausea, as well as social issues such as accessing appropriate education, emotional issues such as techniques for communication, and spiritual issues such as feelings of guilt and isolation. The book suggests that if we are to maintain the quality of life for a child it is essential to recognise all these dimensions and try to address them. This can only be done by recognising the skills of a wide range of professionals and working together in ways that are not always intuitive to any one discipline. It explores the multidimensional and holistic nature of care for the dying child. Those working in paediatric palliative care recognise that all human experience has emotional, psychological and spiritual impact as well as physical, and this book offers the essential information needed for those involved in paediatric care to find ways of providing support in all of these areas. Comprehensive in scope, exhaustive in detail, and definitive in authority, this second edition has been thoroughly updated to cover new practices, current epidemiological data and the evolving models that support the delivery of palliative medicine to children. Paediatric palliative care is now developing in countries with differing health care systems, and being adapted to suit individual illnesses and the varying resources and geography in different parts of the world. This book is an essential resource for anyone who works with children worldwide.
Download or read book Promise Fulfilled written by Fikre Tolossa, PH. D. and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-05-07 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an epic drama in rhyming verse about the life and teaching records of the Lord Jesus Christ from His humble birth on earth up to His victorious ascension to heaven. It also throws light on His three years of stay in Ethiopia between the age of twenty-two and twenty-five. It claims that the wise men from the East that took presents to baby Jesus guided by a star were none other than twelve Ethiopian kings whose ancestors had been waiting for the birth of the Messiah for two thousand years. The Bible doesn't mention where and how in Egypt Jesus, Mary, and Joseph lived. This book does basing itself on ancient Ethiopian records. It depicts His life as a kid in the Ethiopian community of Amarna, Egypt, and at the bank of the River Nile. It contends that Ruth, the great-grandmother of King David and his mother, Adolia, were all Ethiopians living in Moab in those days. It reveals that six of Jesus's apostles-including Bartholomew, Matthew, and Thomas-had preached to Ethiopians shortly after the ascension of Jesus. Promise Fulfilled is suitable for stage performance, movie animation, opera, and reading enjoyment. 259

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Artisan Soul, Erwin Raphael McManus, author, thought leader, and founder of MOSAIC in Los Angeles, pens a manifesto for human creativity and the beginning of a new renaissance. McManus not only calls us to reclaim our creative essence but reveals how we can craft our lives into a work of art. There are no shortcuts to quality, and McManus celebrates the spiritual process that can help us discover our true selves. McManus demonstrates that we all carry within us the essence of an artist. We all need to create, to be a part of a process that brings to the world something beautiful, good, and true, in order to allow our souls to come to life. It's not only the quality of the ingredients we use to build our lives that matter, but the care we bring to the process itself. Just like baking artisan bread, it's a process that's crafted over time. And God has something to say about how we craft our lives. With poignant, inspirational stories and insights from art, life, history, and scripture interspersed throughout, McManus walks readers through the process of crafting a life of beauty and wonder.
