Download or read book A Nation in Crises written by Samuel G. Obeng and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2020-11-20 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a crises-ridden society such as ours, politicians in leadership positions are mostly honest, but the disregard for truth and neglect of the needs of the citizenry create pain, anger, and apathy. Political inexpediency results in policies that hurt minorities and the poor and also leads to useless and ill-planned expensive wars that cost human life and emotional distress. Our political actors’ ill-conceived policies and ideologies often create chaos here at home and overseas and pitch different races and sociopolitical groups against each other. In recent times, lying, bullying, and reckless talk by political actors in leadership positions against each other and against journalists and political commentators have characterized our fight against pandemics and our overall health-care system, resulting in untold death and dying. Never in our country’s history have the two ideological poles—left-wing socialism and ultranationalist right-wing—taken a stranglehold on our polity, creating depravity, political corruption, and shameless sycophancy. Our actions have led to the creation of an emperor who kills dissent, disrespects women, mutes voices that dare reason, and induces cognitive and emotional tumultuous discordance in the minds of most citizens, including even the sycophantic chorus that sings to hail the emperor. However, all is not lost. The United States’ exceptionalism projects inner strength that liberates the soul of the nation. Ordinary Americans have always found ways to come together, seek and found liberty, and prospered like no other nation. Patriotism, selflessness, and goodwill are deeply imbued in the fabric of our society such that no matter what the crisis is, we see the proverbial light at the end of the tunnel and therefore persevere.

Download or read book 50 Things Liberals Love to Hate written by Mike Gallagher and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-08-28 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America, how does the liberal hate thee? Let us count the ways . . . It’s hard work being a liberal these days. Not only do a mere 20 percent of Americans identify themselves as liberal, but one could go broke supporting a skinny double-decaf Starbucks habit. On top of that, when you hate things most Americans love, it’s tiring to have to endlessly correct/educate/fix/enlighten the poor dullards out there who just want to enjoy their lives. Which, taken as a whole, makes the average liberal lonely, short on cash, and mad as hell! So, in the spirit of the compassion they themselves espouse, 50 Things Liberals Love to Hate is truth spoken with love, an invitation to the disenfranchised: it’s not too late, liberals, to join the fun! C’mon, crack open a Bud and throw another T-bone on the grill. But kindly check your disdain at the door when it comes to: WALMART: How about a handmade, locally sourced flat-screen television instead? STEAKHOUSES: There’s no steamed tofu on this menu. McDONALD’S: The stranger in the playground handing out candy to children. FLAG PINS: It’s okay to love America, but not enough to wear it on your lapel. FOOTBALL: War with cleats and pads. THE V-8 ENGINE: There’s just something plain wrong about all that power and freedom under the control of one person. SUCCESS: When you make more money than the rest of us, it hurts our feelings. THE FOUNDING FATHERS: A bunch of old white guys who are making it nearly impossible for modern government to pick our doctors, teach our children, correct our diets, and save our money. . . . and 42 other things that have liberals packing some serious hate. Mike Gallagher—America’s sixth-ranked radio talk show host and Fox News contributor—skewers liberal lunacy with cutting irony and scathing wit. Here are 50 warning signs of a liberal mind implosion, all darn good reasons to lock the doors, crank up the A/C, turn on the game, and let the countdown begin. . . .

Download or read book Ob scene Spaces in Australian Narrative An Account of the Socio topographic Construction of Space in Australian Literature written by Pablo Armellino and published by ibidem-Verlag / ibidem Press. This book was released on 2012-02-27 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ob-scene Spaces in Australian Narrative is an exhaustive survey of Australian literature proposing itself as a journey through time and space. With a careful selection of texts which recount Australian history from the early days of white colonization to the present, this study endeavours to cast light on the process of socio-topographic construction that the settlers imposed upon the continent.As suggested by the title, the textual inquiry conducted in this book is driven by the stimulating ambiguity that lies between physical space and its discursive construction. A selection of canonical and non-canonical texts by authors ranging from Henry Lawson to Christos Tsiolkas aims to reveal the relationship between the space of the city (the scene) and the outback (the ob-scene space beyond the metropolitan area) and its role in the process of spatial construction that, through the last two centuries, has shaped Australia.Pablo Armellino’s distinctive approach to Australian literature makes Ob-scene Spaces in Australian Narrative a very interesting work. Using a carefully selected range of novels, linked together using social and literary theory, it recounts the history of colonization in Australia in a particularly approachable manner. Through the analysis of each text the reader seamlessly learns about the expansion of the frontier, the creation of an ob-scene space beyond it and the use the Discourse makes of this mechanism. These characteristics would appeal to both an academic audience, which would appreciate the detailed text analysis, and a general audience, which would enjoy the historical and thematic aspect of the book.– Professor Carmen Concilio and Professor Pietro Deandrea, Facoltà di Lingue, Università di Torino

Download or read book A Woman s Write written by Womankind Creative Writing Authors and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This collection of poetry and prose from women in recovery is a fire walk: a searing, barefooted dash over the hot coals of desperation, despair and self-destruction. Startling, often hypnotic photographs, supplied by one of the writers, drift through the text like sparks from the embers. These women have been burned into blessedness." Duane Tucker, Actor, Writer for Screen and TV, Passenger Magazine Poet of the Year 2002 "As a recovering alcoholic, "A Woman's Write - Strong and Free" reminded me of my own struggles and haunting past. I could relate to every poem and was enthralled with the quality, honesty and raw emotion the authors brought to each piece. Thought provoking and educational, I will read it again and again." Josie Penny, author of "So Few on Earth" twelve months on the Dundurn Publishers bestselling list. Words to Live By - by Susan Clairmont, The Hamilton Spectator The women call it freefall. Words, moving quickly from head and heart through to pen and paper. Silence, but for the scratching of raw poetry emerging on pages. Some are lost in it. Focused. Energized. Words flow fast. Others struggle. Thoughts trickle. It is Monday night in a sparse basement room at Womankind, an addiction service operated by St. Joseph's Healthcare. A dozen women are around the table. An unlikely group who, in most ways, have little in common. What they do have in common connects them immediately and powerfully. They are all recovering addicts. Some are alcoholics, some are drug users, a good number are both. And they are all authors. A Woman's Write: Strong and Free is a collection of poetry capturing the experience of women learning to understand themselves as they come to terms with addiction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a very fast-paced world, and we are constantly on the move trying to keep up with everything. In doing so, we drain ourselves of energy. We live for family, work, and other people; so much so that we forget about ourselves. Sometimes we allow others to define who we are, and we forget who God says we are. How can we regain strength and renew our inner peace, joy, and happiness? God is calling us to come to him, fellowship together, and bring our burdens to him. A refreshing time with God contains 365 days of devotions and inspiration that help you discover your unique self. Opening your Bible daily with this guide helps you understand that God has created you to make a difference. It allows you to discover your power of dominion and take back control. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Philippians 4:13 (NKJV)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this passionate philosophical memoir, Kimerer LaMothe unfolds an earth-friendly vision of what love can be. Moving to a farm after years spent teaching and writing at Harvard University, LaMothe faces new challenges in her relationships with her parents, her partner, and their children. In her struggle to respond she comes to a radical conclusion: we humans are nothing more or less than an impulse to connect, born to love, but not born knowing how. In vivid accounts of family life, LaMothe reveals how moving our bodily selves in the natural world can foster the sensory awareness we need to cultivate life-affirming connections with those who enable us to be.
