This angel sent from God achieves so much more than had been hoped and possesses abilities no one could have dreamed. "Grace finds goodness in everything..." from the song "Grace" by U2.

Book The Road Years

Download or read book The Road Years written by Rick Mercer and published by Doubleday Canada. This book was released on 2023-10-31 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE INSTANT #1 BESTSELLER Rick Mercer is back—again!—with the eagerly awaited sequel to his bestselling memoir At the end of his memoir Talking to Canadians, Rick Mercer was poised to make the biggest leap yet in his extraordinary career. Having overcome a serious lack of promise as a schoolboy and risen through the showbiz ranks—as an aspiring actor, star of a surprisingly successful one-man show about the Meech Lake Accord, co-founder of This Hour Has 22 Minutes, creator and star of the dark-comedy sitcom Made in Canada—he was about to tackle his biggest opportunity yet. The Road Years picks up the story at that exciting point, with the greenlighting of what would become Rick Mercer Report. Plans for the show, of course, included political satire and Rick’s patented rants. But Rick and his partner, Gerald Lunz, were also determined to do something that comedy tends to avoid as too challenging: they would emphasize the positive. Rick would travel from coast to coast to coast in search of everything that’s best about Canada, especially its people. He found a lot to celebrate, naturally, and was rewarded with a huge audience and a run of 15 seasons. The Road Years tells the inside story of that stupendous success. A time when Rick was heading to another town—or military base, sports centre, national park—to try dogsledding, chainsaw carving, and bear tagging; hang from a harness (a lot); ride the “Train of Death;” plus countless other joyous and/or reckless assignments. Added to the mix were encounters with the country’s great. Every living prime minister. Rock and roll royalty from Rush to Randy Bachman. Olympians and Paralympians. A skinny-dipping Bob Rae. And Jann Arden, of course, who gets a chapter to herself. Along the way he even found the time to visit several countries in Africa and co-found and champion the charity Spread the Net, which has gone on to protect the lives of millions. Join the celebration, and revive a wealth of happy memories, with what is Rick Mercer’s funniest, most fascinating book yet.

Book There Will Be No Miracles Here

Download or read book There Will Be No Miracles Here written by Casey Gerald and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NAMED A BEST BOOK OF 2018 BY NPR AND THE NEW YORK TIMES A PBS NEWSHOUR-NEW YORK TIMES BOOK CLUB PICK "Somehow Casey Gerald has pulled off the most urgently political, most deeply personal, and most engagingly spiritual statement of our time by just looking outside his window and inside himself. Extraordinary." —Marlon James "Staccato prose and peripatetic storytelling combine the cadences of the Bible with an urgency reminiscent of James Baldwin in this powerfully emotional memoir." —BookPage The testament of a boy and a generation who came of age as the world came apart—a generation searching for a new way to live. Casey Gerald comes to our fractured times as a uniquely visionary witness whose life has spanned seemingly unbridgeable divides. His story begins at the end of the world: Dallas, New Year's Eve 1999, when he gathers with the congregation of his grandfather's black evangelical church to see which of them will be carried off. His beautiful, fragile mother disappears frequently and mysteriously; for a brief idyll, he and his sister live like Boxcar Children on her disability checks. When Casey--following in the footsteps of his father, a gridiron legend who literally broke his back for the team--is recruited to play football at Yale, he enters a world he's never dreamed of, the anteroom to secret societies and success on Wall Street, in Washington, and beyond. But even as he attains the inner sanctums of power, Casey sees how the world crushes those who live at its margins. He sees how the elite perpetuate the salvation stories that keep others from rising. And he sees, most painfully, how his own ascension is part of the scheme. There Will Be No Miracles Here has the arc of a classic rags-to-riches tale, but it stands the American Dream narrative on its head. If to live as we are is destroying us, it asks, what would it mean to truly live? Intense, incantatory, shot through with sly humor and quiet fury, There Will Be No Miracles Hereinspires us to question--even shatter--and reimagine our most cherished myths.

Book excerpt: Now a Netflix movie directed by Mike Flanagan (Oculus, Hush) and starring Carla Gugino and Bruce Greenwood. Master storyteller Stephen King presents this classic, terrifying #1 New York Times bestseller. When a game of seduction between a husband and wife ends in death, the nightmare has only begun… “And now the voice which spoke belonged to no one but herself. Oh my God, it said. Oh my God, I am all alone out here. I am all alone.” Once again, Jessie Burlingame has been talked into submitting to her husband Gerald’s kinky sex games—something that she’s frankly had enough of, and they never held much charm for her to begin with. So much for a “romantic getaway” at their secluded summer home. After Jessie is handcuffed to the bedposts—and Gerald crosses a line with his wife—the day ends with deadly consequences. Now Jessie is utterly trapped in an isolated lakeside house that has become her prison—and comes face-to-face with her deepest, darkest fears and memories. Her only company is that of the various voices filling her mind…as well as the shadows of nightfall that may conceal an imagined or very real threat right there with her…

Book Travels with CJ by rog

Download or read book Travels with CJ by rog written by Roger Keith Kallenbach and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-02-03 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about CJ and me traveling life's road with family and friends. It dares to share many of our stories, sometimes revealing some of our dreams and telling of our challenges, our travels, our homes, some of our successes, as well as some of our failings. Stories that disclose who we are, who we were, who we have become, and at times, who we think we are. Stories about some of what we believe and sometimes why we believe what we believe. We hope that our stories build a bridge from where we were to where we are, and they are inviting enough to encourage you to walk into our space and time and help you discover why you are of so much value to the world we all live and make a difference in. Some of our stories help us realize that we--especially we who are born in the United States, even in some of the direst circumstances--are born with the potential of becoming incredibly wealthy, through the gift of love, even as our bank accounts struggle to maintain a mediocre balance. It is our hope that many of our stories will pass the peace of God unto you and among you all.

Book Regenerative Stochastic Simulation

Download or read book Regenerative Stochastic Simulation written by Gerald S. Shedler and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1992-12-17 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simulation is a controlled statistical sampling technique that can be used to study complex stochastic systems when analytic and/or numerical techniques do not suffice. The focus of this book is on simulations of discrete-event stochastic systems; namely, simulations in which stochastic state transitions occur only at an increasing sequence of random times. The discussion emphasizes simulations on a finite or countably infinite state space.* Develops probabilistic methods for simulation of discrete-event stochastic systems* Emphasizes stochastic modeling and estimation procedures based on limit theorems for regenerative stochastic processes* Includes engineering applications of discrete-even simulation to computer, communication, manufacturing, and transportation systems* Focuses on simulations with an underlying stochastic process that can specified as a generalized semi-Markov process* Unique approach to simulation, with heavy emphasis on stochastic modeling* Includes engineering applications for computer, communication, manufacturing, and transportation systems
