Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unemployment is rampant across the entire country. It finally reaches a small town where Dr. Dan Johnson has been gainfully employed as a psychologist for over twenty years. The Center where Dan works shuts down due to budget cuts. Dan loses his job and eventually he loses everything that he has worked for over the years, including his home. Dan is now a homeless man, living out on the streets where homelessness is rampant; eating out of trash cans; trying to survive day-by-day. He meets two homeless men: one a veteran of war, the other an ex-con. They teach Dan the ropes for survival; however, they have one major problem: Marc Parker. Attorney Marc Parker is on a mission to rid the city of homeless people because his sister was killed by a homeless man; a man who was never found. He uses the law by day to accomplish his mission; but at night, he becomes a vigilante who goes around savagely beating up homeless people. Something drastic happens after Dan and Marc's paths cross. They meet Stephen Young, an engineer turned minister, who is also on a mission to rid the city of homeless people. God gave Stephen a direct message on how to accomplish this mission. This message resonates across the entire town. A riveting encounter between these three men changes the hearts and minds of an entire town. Could this message also change the hearts and mind of an entire nation?

Download or read book Who Turned Off the Lights? written by Alfonso McAfee, Jr. and published by McAfee Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-14 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who turned off the light? The land before the country called Nigeria came into existence, was a land filled with light and hope. Electricity referred to as "light" metaphorically represents the success of the people. Today, lights are sporadic at best, and hope is fading. Some believed darkness resulted from the colonization by the British, which brought about the ideals of capitalism. The survival of the fittest became the contest of the day and poverty surly followed. After Nigeria received its independence in 1960, the British left a system in place where the Northern region welded control over the Southern and Western regions. Many leaders felt the only way to change this system was through force. The first military coup was initiated by Igbo army officers in January 1966, this set off a series of counter coups including a bloody three (3) year civil war until the final coup d' etat in 1993. The untimely death of the Military head of State Sani Abacha paved the way for a civilian government. As military rule became a seemingly permanent feature of Nigerian politics. Many Nigerians lost hope and developed a mindset to get all; as much as you can today because tomorrow is just another day. Many civil servants took on the attitude of the increasingly authoritarian and corrupt governments. Greed, bribery, and corruption was the order of the day, over time corruption would reach almost every sector of life, and business dealings in the country. As a result of the "winner take all" framework, long regaining leaders referred to as strongmen dominated politics in Africa. Nigeria provides power/electricity to the Ghanaian people that reside in Ghana, West Africa. Currently the energy supply crisis in Nigeria refers to the ongoing failure to provide adequate electricity supply to domestic households and industrial producers, only 40% of the Nigerian population is connected to the energy grid. It is so common in people residing in local communities, and villagers often state "we have a generator so that makes our family better than yours". The Federal Government of Nigeria spent Billions of dollars on roads, yet the country has some of the worst roads in the world. The Federal Government has also spent billions on the construction of Power Plants to bring stable lights to the country. Greed and corruption for roads, power facilities, and other necessary infrastructure projects have been squandered by corrupt leaders.

Book Synopsis When the Lights Went Out by : David E. Nye
Download or read book When the Lights Went Out written by David E. Nye and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2010-01-29 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blackouts—whether they result from military planning, network failure, human error, or terrorism—offer snapshots of electricity's increasingly central role in American society. Where were you when the lights went out? At home during a thunderstorm? During the Great Northeastern Blackout of 1965? In California when rolling blackouts hit in 2000? In 2003, when a cascading power failure left fifty million people without electricity? We often remember vividly our time in the dark. In When the Lights Went Out, David Nye views power outages in America from 1935 to the present not simply as technical failures but variously as military tactic, social disruption, crisis in the networked city, outcome of political and economic decisions, sudden encounter with sublimity, and memories enshrined in photographs. Our electrically lit-up life is so natural to us that when the lights go off, the darkness seems abnormal. Nye looks at America's development of its electrical grid, which made large-scale power failures possible and a series of blackouts from military blackouts to the “greenout” (exemplified by the new tradition of “Earth Hour”), a voluntary reduction organized by environmental organizations. Blackouts, writes Nye, are breaks in the flow of social time that reveal much about the trajectory of American history. Each time one occurs, Americans confront their essential condition—not as isolated individuals, but as a community that increasingly binds itself together with electrical wires and signals.
Download or read book Lights Out written by Thomas Gryta and published by Mariner Books. This book was released on 2020 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its founding in 1892, General Electric has been more than just a corporation: it was job security, a solidly safe investment, and an elite business education for top managers. GE electrified America, from lightbulbs to turbines, and became fully integrated into the American societal mindset as few companies ever had. And after two decades of leadership under legendary CEO Jack Welch, GE entered the twenty-first century as America's most valuable corporation. Gryta and Mann examine how Welch's handpicked successor, Jeff Immelt, tried to fix flaws in Welch's profit machine, while stumbling headlong into mistakes of his own. In doing so, they detail how one of America's all-time great companies has been reduced to a cautionary tale for our times. -- adapted from jacket
