"If there was one thing I did not feel like doing, it was standing nude in front of my son's girlfriend." "Myoko!" Our host, Ishibishi-san, drew his chest height to emphasize to his wife – and to all his guests – the importance of what he was about to say. "Perhaps Lois-san must use the toilet." Pushing Sixty Behind Me contains hilarious descriptions of first encounters with a health club, a fitness farm, skiing, massage, a water park, and a Japanese toilet.

Download or read book A Cop in the Sixties written by Ronald G. Parsley and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-02 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book begins in August 1965. I tell my story as I begin to work as a deputy sheriff for the Butler County Sheriffs Office in Hamilton, Ohio. The first day I report to the chief deputy's office, he takes me downstairs to the jail and a deputy takes my picture with a Polaroid camera. We go back upstairs to the chief's office with photo in hand. Once in the office, he proceeds to type out an I.D. card with my name, height, weight and blood type. He then attaches the photo to the card and hands it to me. As I take the card, I see him open the center drawer of his desk and take a gold badge out which he then hands to me. He then finds me a pair of uniform pants, two shirts and a jacket that is two sizes to big for me and tells me to report to the jail tonight at 11:00p.m.. That in a nutshell, was my training. This is where my story begins. I have a gold badge, uniform, gun belt and gun Thanks to all of the honest and hard working deputies, who taught me how to do the job. This was one of the most rewarding periods of my life. I hope everyone who reads this book enjoys the story of how we managed to do the job with so few officers and none of the technology that today's officers enjoy. We did not have bullet proof vests. We used typewriters to write reports. There were no backup officers if you were on a dangerous call. Most of the time the only backup you had were your two brothers, Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson and they could talk very loud, six times without reloadin

Download or read book Almost Invisible written by Maureen Garvie and published by Groundwood Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-08-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jewel is on the run from an abusive home situation and furtively living at school. After Maya discovers her classmate’s secret, should she tell? Or can she help Jewel on her own? Thirteen-year-old Jewel has been holding her life together ever since her older sister, Charmaine, suddenly left home with no forwarding address. She tried to find Charmaine once, but that only brought her family to the attention of the police. Now Jewel keeps her head down at school, looks after her special-needs brother as well as she can, and tries to steer clear of her parents and their shady friends. When her father’s friend comes into her bedroom one night, Jewel finally understands why Charmaine had to leave home. Soon she is on the run herself. When her food runs out, Jewel chances upon a new place to live — the cupboard of the art room at school. It turns out to be surprisingly easy to live under the radar when you have perfected the art of being almost invisible. That is, until Jewel’s classmates, Maya and Lily, discover her washing her hair in the girls’ washroom at school and making breakfast in the lunchroom. They take her on as their project, finding her places to sleep, fixing her hair and wardrobe — even as they can’t quite understand her terror, or why she is so afraid of seeking adult help. But the girls help keep Jewel and her secret safe — until they no longer can. Told in the alternating voices of Maya and Jewel, this is a thought-provoking and moving story about loyalty, privilege, keeping secrets, and what it means to be a good friend.

Book Synopsis Raising Spirits by : Michael Goldberg
Download or read book Raising Spirits written by Michael Goldberg and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-08-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raising Spirits: Stories of Suffering and Comfort at Death's Door springs from Michael Goldberg's experiences serving dying patients as a hospital and hospice chaplain. Previously, he had held positions as a management consultant, a chaired university professor, and a congregational rabbi. Although each of those careers fulfilled some of his professional aspirations, none filled his spiritual hunger to find purpose in his life. In turning to chaplaincy and helping the gravely ill satisfy their craving for meaning at the end of their lives, Goldberg discovered spiritual sustenance in his.Raising Spirits is the first book to explore care giving at the end of life from a spiritual as well as clinical perspective. It tells the stories of Michael Goldberg's journeys with patients, their families, and loved ones as they try to face the challenges awaiting them at life's edges. In the process, Goldberg himself is tested as a committed Jew who, working largely among non-Jews, must continually reassess his identity and convictions. He comes to see that "spirituality" need not refer to things occult or otherworldly, but as Raising Spirits makes clear, to things in this world that can at least start to lift our spirits and revive them. The reciprocal process of gaining insight into patients and into oneself is possible, indeed crucial, for all who care for the sick, both lay and professional alike.
