Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Children's Choice Book Awards' Teen Choice Debut Author Award Ten years ago, Braden was given a sign, a promise that his family wouldn't fall apart the way he feared. But Braden got it wrong: his older brother, Trey, has been estranged from the family for almost as long, and his father, the only parent Braden has ever known, has been accused of murder. The arrest of Braden's father, a well-known Christian radio host has sparked national media attention. His fate lies in his son's hands; Braden is the key witness in his father's upcoming trial. Braden has always measured himself through baseball. He is the star pitcher in his small town of Ornette, and his ninety-four mile per hour pitch already has minor league scouts buzzing in his junior year. Now the rules of the sport that has always been Braden's saving grace are blurred in ways he never realized, and the prospect of playing against Alex Reyes, the nephew of the police officer his father is accused of killing, is haunting his every pitch. Braden faces an impossible choice, one that will define him for the rest of his life, in this brutally honest debut novel about family, faith, and the ultimate test of conviction.
Book Synopsis Treacherous Alliance by : Trita Parsi
Download or read book Treacherous Alliance written by Trita Parsi and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This award-winning study traces the shifting relations between Israel, Iran, and the U.S. since 1948—including secret alliances and treacherous acts. Vitriolic exchanges between the leaders of Iran and Israel are a disturbingly common feature of the news cycle. But the real roots of their enmity mystify Washington policymakers, leaving no promising pathways to stability. In Treacherous Alliance, U.S. foreign policy expert Trita Parsi untangles to complex and often duplicitous relationship among Israel, Iran, and the United States from 1948 to the present. In the process, he reveals shocking details of unsavory political maneuverings that have undermined Middle Eastern peace and disrupted U.S. foreign policy initiatives in the region. Parsi draws on his unique access to senior American, Iranian, and Israeli decision makers to present behind-the-scenes revelations that will surprise even the most knowledgeable readers: Iran’s prime minister asks Israel to assassinate Khomeini; Israel reaches out to Saddam Hussein after the Gulf War; the United States foils Iran’s plan to withdraw support from Hamas and Hezbollah; and more. Treacherous Alliance not only revises our understanding of the recent past, it also spells out a course for the future.

Book Synopsis Diversion and Deception by : Whitney T. Bendeck
Download or read book Diversion and Deception written by Whitney T. Bendeck and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2021-03-04 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the operations known as Plan Bodyguard, the deception devised to cover the Allies’ Normandy landing, was the little known but critical Plan Zeppelin, the largest and most complex of the Bodyguard plans. Zeppelin, in conjunction with the Mediterranean Strategy, succeeded in pinning down sixty German divisions from southern France to the Balkans in time for D-Day. This was the work of “A” Force, Britain’s only military organization tasked with carrying out both strategic and tactical deception in World War II. Whitney T. Bendeck’s Diversion and Deception finds “A” Force at its finest hour, as the war shifted from North Africa to Europe. Focusing on the years 1943 to 1945, Bendeck describes how “A” Force, under the leadership of Dudley Clarke, orchestrated both strategic and tactical deception plans to create notional threats across the southern perimeter of Europe, with the chief objective of keeping the Germans pinned down across the Mediterranean. Her work offers a close and clarifying look at “A” Force’s structure and command, operations and methods, and successes and failures and, consequently, its undeniable contribution to the Allies’ victory in World War II. By shining a light on the often overlooked Mediterranean theater and its direct connection to European plans and operations, Diversion and Deception also provides a deeper understanding of Allied grand strategy in the war. Combining military and deception histories—so often viewed in isolation—this book provides context for the deceptions and adds a layer of knowledge regarding the planning of military operations. The result is a more complete and nuanced view of Allied operations than is to be found in most histories of World War II.

Download or read book Out of Place written by Jione Havea and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Place" shapes human identity and community. Arguing that theologies are shaped by place so no theology can be universal, "Out of Place" assesses the ways in which theology, as a discipline and a practice, is "out of place". Departing from dominant theological discourse, the book argues that for theology to be transformative it must connect with "place" and engage with marginalised peoples and cultures. Ranging across Asian American theology to Tamils in the London diaspora, Australian Pentecostalism to HIV and AIDS sufferers, "Out of Place" will be of invaluable to scholars and students of sociology and religion interested in the intersection of theology and locality.
Book Synopsis The Unspoken Alliance by : Sasha Polakow-Suransky
Download or read book The Unspoken Alliance written by Sasha Polakow-Suransky and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-06-14 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to the Six-Day War, Israel was a darling of the international left, vocally opposed to apartheid and devoted to building alliances with black leaders in newly independent African nations. South Africa, for its part, was controlled by a regime of Afrikaner nationalists who had enthusiastically supported Hitler during World War II. But after Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territories in 1967, the country found itself estranged from former allies and threatened anew by old enemies. As both states became international pariahs, a covert—and lucrative—military relationship blossomed between these seemingly unlikely allies. Based on extensive archival research and exclusive interviews with former generals and high-level government officials in both countries, The Unspoken Alliance tells a troubling story of Cold War paranoia, moral compromises, and startling secrets.
Book Synopsis Mary and Early Christian Women by : Ally Kateusz
Download or read book Mary and Early Christian Women written by Ally Kateusz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-18 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY-NC-ND license. This book reveals exciting early Christian evidence that Mary was remembered as a powerful role model for women leaders—women apostles, baptizers, and presiders at the ritual meal. Early Christian art portrays Mary and other women clergy serving as deacon, presbyter/priest, and bishop. In addition, the two oldest surviving artifacts to depict people at an altar table inside a real church depict women and men in a gender-parallel liturgy inside two of the most important churches in Christendom—Old Saint Peter’s Basilica in Rome and the second Hagia Sophia in Constantinople. Dr. Kateusz’s research brings to light centuries of censorship, both ancient and modern, and debunks the modern imagination that from the beginning only men were apostles and clergy.

Book excerpt: Central Idea of the "Kayan Kollyn" Adventure Saga Book. 'Kayan Kollyn' is a fictional adventure and mystical saga story set up in the Atouls World. 'Ellmott' is the almighty power, which works in conjunction with various forms of 'Craffartt.' Craffartt is the ancient craft of the atouls world, in which mysterious powers work. Much of the ellmott mystery is extinct today, but efforts are being made on this land to unravel it. And thousands of miles long- the 'Great Atoulian Mountain Ranges' is the mysterious abode of this Ellmott. "Many people of the 'Atouls Land' adore and bow down the three basic forms of this nature and existence, namely, the Element, the Essence, and the E'light* (pain-n-pleasure) give them the pure thought and wisdom. The Elements are contained within the 'Attor Spiral,' the Essence is contained within the 'Meddo Spiral,' while the E'light is contained within the 'Solloh Spiral,' which were the ancient science, art, and 'Craft' of the land of atouls, THIS ART IS CALLED 'CRAFFARTT*' in atouls world. Empo and Espak are the subtle Ellmott-Elements in 'Atouls World,' "in which Empo is the experience of the mind and the body exists and moves in Espak," This is the ancient belief of Atoulian. When the mind rises above the realm of Empo, it pervades the whole spectrum of a Great Time. When the body's consciousness transcends the boundaries of the finite body, the infinite Ellmott becomes its marvelous abode. But, "how does such merit come about?" Perhaps, a person can touch this land's hidden and mysterious dimensions; however, the answers to the mystery are also unknown. So, Let's dive into this story. The Story: A Seed that Becomes a Huge Tree There are three main geographical areas in the Atouls world; the 'States of Atouls,' 'Nymos town,' and 'Kingdom of the Atouls.' Each region has its uniqueness, while access to the Kingdom, in particular, is not easy. Kayan is a fourteen-year-old boy, Kayan's life is connected to these three geographical areas of the 'Atouls World,' where Kayan learns the ancient 'Atoulian' Esoteric Craft,' which the people of Nymos town call Craffartt*. And, Kollyn, who is a fourteen-year-old girl, is the girl of a nomadic herdsman of the Atoulians Mountains. Special classes of 'Atouls World' reveal the art and science of incorporating the mysterious powers of Existence and the 'Nature' in their various crafts (Craffartts). It was the ancient and extinct heritage of the 'Atouls World.' Accepting whatever is contained within this life is our first gratitude towards life. The ability to think and imagine is one of life's best gifts; If these abilities are used to the fullest, they can do good to oneself and others. And while contemplating, when anyone's thought develops, it first takes the form of a 'Story' because the mind has a good relationship with the story; this story deserves to be told in a language that the world can understand. And, any story becomes exciting and successful only when its 'Subject' can touch by every mind, so it is essential to contemplate the subject of the story constantly; The Effort of the Storytelling has a specific 'Purpose.' Here, I find only three words after a long thought process: fearlessness, freedom, and peace, But this path goes through a lot of conflict and pain; the absolute joy of life is in the journey because, in it, this vast existence is always ready to reveal its Secrets. The Theme: Depth of Time Many Characters walk on the ground; there are a lot of Characters that slide on the ground, hardly anyone floats, and very few are able to fly in the sky of Freedom and Fearlessness. And these characters are associated with all three dimensions of Time, and often a rare character touches even the fourth dimension of Time and Place. This story paints a picture of 'Ancient Times,' At the same Time keeps pace with the 'Present' and takes a flight into the 'Future;' Because Time has always been a witness to the eternal order of life and death. Effect of these Adventure Sagas called 'Kayan Kollyn.' The probability and ability were, are, and will be endless at any time stage; this journey goes through sorrow, pain, anguish, joy, pleasure, and bliss, which are a natural process for parity and purity. However, the new generation is always ready to embrace change. Today's new generation wants to understand the past of various civilizations and wants to enjoy the modern conveniences of the present. With this, they want to give the best direction to their future. This book, this long story divided into parts, I hope it will communicate a new feeling, a new imagination to people of all religions and races once they read and watch; This may inspire them to find answers to their unanswered questions. “KNOWLEDGE-word has a wide and comprehensive meaning in ancient D’Hoptik-Language of Atouls World, Including ‘i am (to be),’ thought, imagination, experience, intuition, dream, sleep, and union with ellmott-power,” master Hyubos said. Attempt as an Author "When the 'living story' descends into the utmost excellence, the mystery opens," It attempts to solve many internal and external unresolved questions of childhood and youth. "I invite you to join this journey wholeheartedly, and I am grateful to you." - V VN Mangukiya.
