Book excerpt: We live our lives one hitch at a time. Along with that come tears from the anxiety and stress when trying to hold it all together. But then there is the laughter and comfort when surrounded by the right people, the ones we have grown close to, who have become our family and friends, our rocks some days: our fellow rig wives. The offshore is not for the faint of heart. The ocean can be a dark and lonely place. Our husbands risk their lives every time they go to work. While some people's relationships dissolve, others stand tall. Only the strong survive. Kelly Earle's husband, who works offshore in the oil industry, inspired her to write Rig Wives. Interviews with other rig wives tell the story of the women who wait. Their stories of determination, perseverance, and camaraderie, while their husbands engage in one of the most dangerous occupations in the world, are an inspiration to all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capitalism and Communism, the progenies of the semitic culture, have given birth to two different streams of women’s Liberation. These streams, which have stormed western society and communist groups, have now actively intruded into the Indian socio-political milieu. The moment these concepts encounter with Indian realities ,they display their inherent contradictions and limitations. But seldom an Indian alternative to such views is discussed.

Download or read book Wives on Layaway written by Joseph Ubo and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-10-13 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emmanuel Awak-Isang decided that his wife Rose must die. That was a simple decision to make. Decisions like that, experts would agree, are always simple to arrive at, after the decider feels perfectly wronged by the object of his ire. But carrying out a homicide without leaving a trail which dedicated hounds could pick up on and trace the crime to its source usually proves trickier than just making a financial investment in a murder tool. And that is just one obstacle. Like marriage counselors have been saying about relationships, communication is very important. In Emmanuels case, because he did not inform the object of his extreme despise in a timely manner, either in word or action that he was planning to do her in, unknowingly, she kept messing up his plan to kill her.
Book Synopsis Women of India by : Arun R. Kumbhare
Download or read book Women of India written by Arun R. Kumbhare and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-07 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A systematic presentation of the status of women of India throughout the long history of about 6000 years has been presented starting from the Vedic times to the post-independence period. A detailed description of the status of women during the Vedic times, which is rarely available in any of the existing literature, and in the following periods is very significant to the study of this subject. The author has discussed how the political and religious conditions over the periods have affected the conditions of women. The age-old evils, which had got firmly entrenched in the Indian society, such as the tradition of Sati, illiteracy, child marriages, and deplorable treatment of widows and so on, still persist and some new ones have joined the list. These are: bride burning, dowry, female feticide, domestic violence, to name a few. Short biographies of some outstanding women have been included to illustrate that in spite of adversities some women had achieved eminence. To the credit of the Indian Government, legislative measures have been taken to protect and improve the status of women after independence and just prior to it. These have been outlined. Unfortunately, these measures have not been able to achieve their intended results on account of wide spread corruption and lack of education and awareness among women, especially in the rural areas. A snapshot of the present conditions is given along with concluding remarks and recommendations for improvement. Improvement of the status of women is extremely improvement for India if it wishes to become a developed and progressive country and a world leader in culture and ideology.

Book Synopsis Discovery of Prehistory Ancient India by : Dr. Jagat K. Motwani
Download or read book Discovery of Prehistory Ancient India written by Dr. Jagat K. Motwani and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2018-02-22 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nationalist and Revolutionary While a high school student, I actively participated in the Mahatma Gandhis 1942 movement Quit India. I felt disappointed because only a few prominent leaders like Gandhi and Nehru were imprisoned. On Sept. 9, 1945, under the patronage of the Dadu District British Collector, the town dignitaries including my grand father and Mr. Tuljaram Nagrani, the principal of the town High school, along with the matriculate students had assembled at the Hindu temple to celebrate the victory of the Allies at the WW II. Sweets were distributed. I threw the sweets on the floor. The reason I did this was not because I sided with the Axis powers. But because Indian soldiers were fighting for Britain, as India was not a free country. Next morning, the Principal got me in his office and whipped me several times on my palms and ordered me to leave the school and come back with my parent. The principal told my father that Jagat to pay a fine of Rs. 5 and threatened that in case of denial I will be rusticketed (expelled from school as a bad character student) and no school would admit me. I am proud of my father that he said that only Jagat to decide. I said that paying fine means admission of the guilt. In my opinion it was not a guilt. I, with recommendation of my class teacher Mr. Chandnani, got admission in the P. H. High School, Dadu, only about 50 miles away from my home town. In 1947 on the eve of partition, there was an accidently bomb explosion in Karachi, suspected of an RSS activity. Several RSS leaders were arrested. A Khalsa police officer secretly alerted my grand father to hide me to avoid arrest. I, along with a few RSS pracharaks, secretly reached Karachi to take a ship for Okha, Gujarat, then train to Baroda. In 1948, Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated by Nathuram Godse. Because Godse was an RSS member, the whole RSS all over India was banned. I participated in the collective protest against the injustice of punishing the whole RSS organization because of the crime by its only one RSS member. Whole family can not be punished because of the crime of its one member. I was imprisoned in Baroda jail for four months. Thousands of RSS members all over India were imprisoned. Dr. Jagat K. Motwani

Download or read book From Africa to Illinois, The Search for Freedom and a Place to Call Home written by Raleigh L. Sutton and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of the material you will hear at this time is not and was not taught in school. Only in the last twenty years has much of this information has come to light by hard working researchers who, like myself, have spent thousands of hours digging out the facts from diverse sources. The usual class room teachings acknowledge slavery only in a general way moving on to the Civil War, dwelling only a moment on the Reconstruction's initial success and then its failure. We then skip to World War Two forgetting eighty years worth of struggle during the great migrations north for work and finding more disappointment trying to improve their lives. The story of Elgin's African American Community begins in West Africa, then to the New World in the seventeenth century, then to the fledgling United States of 1700's, to the Northwest Territory of 1793, to Illinois, to Kane County, and at last to Elgin.
