Download or read book From Where the Parson's Partner Sits ... or Hanging on by My Fingernails written by Bonnie L. Crank and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2003-09-15 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Where the Parson's Partner Sits . . . or Hanging on by my Fingernails After centuries of church doctrine resulting in schism after schism, a rather stereotyped picture of Parson and Mrs. Parson has gradually emerged. From Where the Parson's Partner Sits is a book that tends to dispel any such lofty ideas as to the reality of Perfect Parson and Perfect Mrs. Parson. With tongue in cheek this is a behind-the-scenes, day-by-day life of Mrs. Parson, filled with humor, wit, stamina and just a bit of a jab at the equally stereotyped 'good church folk'. Who better to tell the story than a minister's wife?

Download or read book I Know You're in There written by Marcia Hinds and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This isn’t just another one of those autism books for parents. Rather, this book is a groundbreaking guide that will give both parents and doctors treating autism tools and a pathway to help your child. There was something wrong with Ryan. His parents knew it before the psychiatrist predicted he would end up in an institution. Ryan was diagnosed as autistic at age four. He wouldn’t look people in the eye, had troubles with socialization, difficulties with language and more like most kids that range from mild, to severe autism, or even asperbergers. Like all parents who receive this diagnosis, that day changed everything as your ticket is punched to autism island, population one or two. There was no understanding your child with autism . . . no manual for parenting autism . . . recovery from autism . . . there was no cure . . . there was no hope. Or was there? I Know You’re in There tells the true story of how, through diet, applied behavior analysis (ABA), consistent and rigorous medical treatment, and more, Ryan’s family took the jump and was able work on healing the symptoms known as autism and ultimately to overcome autism. It took a lot of trial and error, but today Ryan isn’t just high functioning on the autism spectrum disorder, but rather uniquely human and is an aerospace engineer, has friends, relationships, and lives a happy “typical” life. His recovery wasn’t miraculous, but instead the result of getting proper medical care, and his parents never taking “no” for an answer. This book provides an early start for your child with autism. Marcia sincerely provides real world examples and actionable steps to take to get your child the treatment and care that could help them beat autism. If your child has been diagnosed with autism, or the warning signs are there, which are also covered here, I Know You’re in There is an indispensable resource in your fight against autism spectrum disorder.
Book Synopsis The Case of the Flashing Fashion Queen by : Norah Wilson
Download or read book The Case of the Flashing Fashion Queen written by Norah Wilson and published by Norah Wilson. This book was released on 2011-04-23 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tired of getting no respect at the big P.I. firm where she’s worked for years, Dix Dodd has hung out her own shingle at the ripe age of 40. There are plenty of cheating husbands to go around, and Dix has a knack for busting them. Problem is, it doesn’t always pay so well. Conscious that the guys back at the old firm are laying bets about how soon she’ll come crawling back, she figures she’s got six months to make a go of it. The going gets even tougher when she hires Dylan Foreman. But when he told her about getting fired from his law firm and disbarred for putting common decency before the firm’s interests, she hired him on the spot. In addition to being smart, he’s gorgeous enough to remind her she’s a woman. And at 28, young enough to make her feel like a total cougar. Things start looking up when Dix gets hired by millionaire businessman Ned Weatherby’s wife Jennifer Weatherby, to tail Ned 24/7 for a week, for a cool ten grand. Easy-peasy, right? Wrong! The job lands Dix in the middle of a murder investigation – with her as the prime suspect and her arch-enemy Detective Richard Head (a.k.a., Dickhead, one of the cheating husbands she’d nailed) gunning for her. Dix will need all her ingenuity, as well as the help of Dylan and her oddball cast of supporters to extricate herself from this one.
Book Synopsis A Letter to My Grandchildren by : George M. Brockway Ph.D.
Download or read book A Letter to My Grandchildren written by George M. Brockway Ph.D. and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2019-05-02 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book truly is a ‘letter’ (albeit a long one) to the author’s grandchildren, ages 12 to 22. But it is not a “children’s book,” either in subject matter or in style. It is personal in that the author reflects on his own personal experiences while growing up and later in his life and he is clearly talking to people he knows and loves. It is also personal in the sense that it deals with issues of great importance to people who are going through their formative years. But it is not a book of advice or admonition. Rather, it raises questions for the kids to ponder. It pushes them to think outside the boxes of their (and their peer’s) common concerns and it does so in the context of some of the most profound issues we face as humans.
Book Synopsis Capturing the Mood of Democracy by : Stephen Coleman
Download or read book Capturing the Mood of Democracy written by Stephen Coleman and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-24 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about what it means to speak of a political mood. Can the electorate be in a mood? How do they express it? How can moods be captured in a meaningful way? This book attempts to answer those questions by looking at one city during the December 2019 British general election. This is not a book about campaign strategies, target voters, turnouts and poll swings. It is about how people feel. The research approach is ethnographic. The telling of the story is lyrical. It may not be hard political science but it contributes significantly to an understanding of the health of contemporary democracy. Focusing upon the ways that voters and non-voters perform their enthusiasm or indifference, the stories that they tell, and photographic images of Bradford in what is supposed to be a vital democratic moment, this book invites readers to engage with the affective texture of an election.

There are plenty of cheating husbands to go around, and Dix has a knack for busting them. Problem is, it doesn’t always pay so well.

Dix will need all her ingenuity, as well as the help of Dylan and her oddball cast of supporters to extricate herself from this one. Family Jewels Dix Dodd rides again! This time, to rescue her mother. A resident of a Florida retirement community, Katt Dodd is a person of interest in not only a rash of jewel thefts, but in the disappearance of her boyfriend, Frankie Morell. Dix, the handsome-as-sin Dylan, and the irrepressible (okay, rude) Mrs. P head to Florida to solve the case of the Family Jewels before Dix’s mother gets railroaded. Of course, hilarious hijinks ensue when Dix goes into the Wildoh Retirement Complex (Motto: We provide the Wild, you supply the Oh!) undercover as Katt’s erotica-writing daughter. Multiply the fun when Dylan gets himself hired as the Wildoh’s newest employee, a slightly dim-witted security-cum-maintenance man. Death by Cuddle Club Vindication is Dix's when her nemesis Detective Richard Head (aka Dickhead) shows up at her door, asking for her help on a delicate matter. Delicate because he can't turn to his own PD without admitting he's a member of a newly opened Cuddle Club. There have been a couple of deaths of Club members, ostensibly of natural causes, but Detective Head wants to take a closer look. The task for Dix? Infiltrate the Cuddle Club, ferret out the truth, and report back to Dickhead. Simple. Well, except for the fact that Dix is about as cuddly as a porcupine. Good thing for her that her assistant, the handsome, much younger and infinitely more cuddle-friendly Dylan Foreman, is eager to go under the covers...er...under cover with her. Head was right, all is not as it seems at the club. As Dix has always maintained, cuddling can be dangerous to your health. In fact, it can be downright deadly.

Book excerpt: In this gripping page-turner, an ex-agent on the run from her former employers must take one more case to clear her name and save her life. She used to work for the U.S. government, but very few people ever knew that. An expert in her field, she was one of the darkest secrets of an agency so clandestine it doesn't even have a name. And when they decided she was a liability, they came for her without warning. Now she rarely stays in the same place or uses the same name for long. They've killed the only other person she trusted, but something she knows still poses a threat. They want her dead, and soon. When her former handler offers her a way out, she realizes it's her only chance to erase the giant target on her back. But it means taking one last job for her ex-employers. To her horror, the information she acquires only makes her situation more dangerous. Resolving to meet the threat head-on, she prepares for the toughest fight of her life but finds herself falling for a man who can only complicate her likelihood of survival. As she sees her choices being rapidly whittled down, she must apply her unique talents in ways she never dreamed of. In this tautly plotted novel, Meyer creates a fierce and fascinating new heroine with a very specialized skill set. And she shows once again why she's one of the world's bestselling authors.
Download or read book Unmoored written by J. R. Roessl and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-05-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s the ’60s in San Francisco. Peace, love, and rock ’n’ roll reign. Counterculture has arrived and the times, they are a-changing, but while the beat goes on, a sixteen-year-old girl thinks only of endless summers beyond the dark waters of the Golden Gate Bridge. After spending a decade helping her father build their forty-foot sailboat, Heritage, she will leave behind everything she has known for the promise he’s made to her and her sisters and mother: that on this trip of a lifetime, he will be a better man and father. Heading out to sea on the night of their departure, she fears how ill-equipped they are for the enormity of what lies ahead. After all, her father has failed his celestial navigation course, her sisters can’t swim, and no one knows how to sail. Is it just departure jitters, or does she see something others don’t? Set against a backdrop of the tropics, teenage torment, and a coterie of colorful and unforgettable characters, Unmoored tells a parallel story of a young woman’s budding independence and personal growth. Aboard Heritage, fueled by humor and her indomitable spirit, she learns to trust her intuition and to understand the power of self-reliance as her family hopscotches from port to port along the rugged coastlines from San Francisco to Central America and beyond. As Heritage battles storms, fire, and near disasters, the girl’s family slowly fractures, and she must decide on a course of action that may alter her dreams forever. Unmoored is a story of adventure, revelation, and ultimately redemption. The outcome is never guaranteed, and sometimes not even the journey is a sure thing, but the discovery of resilience, strength, and most of all forgiveness is an inspiration for those who have dared to dream and thought they failed.
Book Synopsis To Chase a Dream by : Paul "Whitey" Kapsalis
Download or read book To Chase a Dream written by Paul "Whitey" Kapsalis and published by Meyer & Meyer Verlag. This book was released on 2014-02-28 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winners of 8 national championships, Indiana University is to men’s college soccer what University of North Carolina is to college basketball or University of Notre Dame is to college football. To Chase a Dream is the true story of one kid’s near-impossible desire to play soccer at that national powerhouse, a kid who was told time after time that he simply wasn’t good enough and never would be. What all the doubters failed to consider was that inside the body of an under-sized, humble Paul Kapsalis was the heart of a lion. This is his journey, a story that affirms that perseverance, optimism, hard work, a willingness to learn, and kindness can lead to remarkable achievements and transform a kid who just wanted to play soccer into a leader of men. It took him 5 years, fighting through rejection and a career-threatening injury, but Paul got where he never expected to go. Here’s a chance to see how he did it.
