    Having done around forty-five years in fostering, I think I can safely say that I do not know anyone else who has been through the same. No one that I know of has fostered for forty-five years, has had an allegation, came through it, and carried on fostering! Following the trauma of the allegation, we took part in several TV programs and the making of teaching videos for carers and social workers and ended up lecturing for different authorities and gave nationwide telephone support to families who'd had allegations. The thing that struck me was, these lectures were attended by ladies. Generally speaking, the only men in attendance were social workers and, of course, myself.

  • - For Young People
    av William Doyle

    These verses are offered for the young at heart. They are written to guide and comfort, to encourage and to cheer, to instruct and amuse, using the imagination in a positive manner. The overall text encourages the reader to sense a bond between the self, nature, and the creator. Such melodies reveal the true joy and beauty of the unspoken songs that lay hidden deep within the recesses of consciousness, which we so often feel but have difficulty in expressing.We do not exist separately from our environment or the world; we are linked together as we are with the words we write or utter, made manifest by the arrangement of the mind. It's on this premise, supported by an earnest desire to raise young lives to glorious heights of attainment, that I offer this work.

  • - Cpec Can Be a Mega Disaster for Pakistan
    av Dr Shabir Choudhry
    255,-

    With the CPEC, Pakistan may have a new infrastructure on its land, but it is for the Chinese goods and lorries; and to advance the Chinese global agenda. Aim of the CPEC is not to empower Pakistan and its people.In view of many Pakistanis, this new relationship is not an economic partnership with China. It is a new form of colonialism, but if the Pakistani ruling elite, and people of Pakistan are happy with this new relationship then no one from outside can help them.

    Ariana has been battling unhappiness for most of her life. Ostensively, things were fine. She had a great job and a pleasant enough life until she met a stranger and life took on a completely different turn. This book is a wondrous discovery of the past with a vision so clear it's astonishing. Readers are taken back to England's Regency period-a forgotten time where Ariana is transported. She is faced with daunting enemies, jealousy, the unraveling of long-buried secrets, and threats to her very life. But all this is of no matter, for the predominant strain is the magical personality of a man and a bond so strong and so powerful that it becomes impossible to get over it in the past life or, indeed, in any other.

  • - The Adaptation and Adoption of Karanga Religiosity in the Zion Christian Church of Samuel Mutendi in Zimbabwe
    av Vengesai Chimininge
    239,-

    Myths and rituals in Zion Christian Church (ZCC) of Samuel Mutendi in Zimbabwe is a book that comes as a result of my thesis from the University of South Africa (UNISA). The two religious phenomena, myths and rituals, are presented in the light of the Zionists' own testimonies. It is argued in this book that a lot of beliefs and practices in the ZCC are adapted and adopted from Karanga religiosity and lifestyle. The book explained the critical role played by myths and rituals in the origins and development of the ZCC of Samuel Mutendi in Zimbabwe. As we read throughout this book, we are going to see that myths and rituals are treated as two sides of the same coin in the ZCC worldview. The relationship between the two is thus inseparable. Among the members of ZCC, myths and rituals grow pari passu, that is, at the same time. In this case, we can see that in the ZCC ecclesiastical worldview, myths and rituals are of equal importance, not only in theory but also in practice. Indeed, they act as nectar that attracts a lot of people to join the ZCC since the two have a therapeutic value.

    This is a contemporary book for everyone, but it is more relevant to those who wish to know why we say corruption is an enemy to the society, how it starts, what propels it, and what the society suffers as a result of corruption. It is not an over expectation for the workers to look up to their manager and the citizens to look up to the elected politicians for welfare projects because according to the book, the primary responsibility of democratic governments, especially in developing economies, is the protection of lives and properties of her citizens, providing welfare schemes and creating an enabling ground for her citizens to strive for their self-development. Corruption has rubbed us of all these. The citizens entrusted their collective will in the hands of the elected politicians believing that they will make the society a better place to live, but in return, we have a society tightly dotted with terrorists and politically motivated attacks on the innocent citizens. The country became difficult for an average man to survive in, leading to irregular migration even to less developing economies where, at least, they can be sure of security.

  • - Targeted Spelling Drill
    av Noeleen MC Eneaney

    I am a primary school teacher of 30 years, with experience in mainstream education in the Republic of Ireland and England. Over half of that time has been spent working with children and adults with Special Educational Needs (SEN). I have a B.Ed and an M.Ed , Level 2 NVQ in Support Users of IT, and I have been blessed with a curious and creative mind. This compilation began over 10 years ago when I was trying to come up with new ways of teaching the common/sight words or tricky words as they are sometimes termed, also known as Dolch/ Fry/ Hearn Lists. For the purpose of this book I have used a list compiled by Alan Sayles, representing half of the words that readers are ever likely to meet. Each page looks at the phonetic makeup, blending, shape and structure of each word, spelling, visual discrimination and context of each word. The word is reinforced up to 20 times on each page. My colleagues and I have used these worksheets for some years now and find them very useful. They include ideas from many schemes such as the National Literacy Strategy UK, Dyslexia Association Ireland, Units of Sound, Alan Sayles's Handbook, Culligan's Corewords, Boxes Font © Crossbow Education, ideas from courses with ICEP and INTO, colleagues in particular Maria Carolan and Orla Briscoe and the wonderful pupils that I have had the pleasure of teaching. Some pupils will learn these words really quickly while others find it difficult to retain them e.g. pupils: with SEN, learning English as another Language, or beginning readers. These sheets can be used by Classroom/SEN/EAL teachers or by parents who are home schooling or simply reinforcing reading and spelling. I have not tried to reinvent the wheel here, only to reassemble it in a slightly different way! I work closely with my Job Sharing partner, fellow SEN teachers, Special Needs Assistants (SNAs), classroom teachers and two Principals in supporting the inclusion of pupils with SEN in mainstream school. I have also worked with various Dyslexia groups, Adult Learning in Devon, private students, and have a City and Guilds qualification in IT. My current post is shared between two rural schools which I job share. I completed a Masters in Education in 2010 with the University of Ulster and have two documents published there.

  • - A Personal Experience
    av Earth Ray

    The author of this book has a lifelong experience in the church . The corruption & hypocrisy he has seen & heard of contradicts the Bible teachings in many ways . This book exposes some of the deeds , sayings & thoughts that the author came across . Some of the episodes expressed in this book will make many believers wonder about their relationships with the church & the clergy . It is not meant to deter people from the church , on the contrary it is meant to deter the clergy from abusing the church for their own ends . All of us are partly responsible for what is going on because we put our blind trust in the clergy without any questioning.Decadence , hypocrisy , corruption & sexual immorality is rife and in many instances it goes on unnoticed . No one expects the Clergy to be like the Apostles who met their ends in horrible ways to promote Christian teachings to the world , but we expect the clergy to hold the Apostles as their role model & to be exemplary to the laity in their way of life , christian teachings & values . It is time for someone to expose the bitter truth so that Christianity , the Church & the Clergy gain the higher ethical ground that Christ has sacrificed his life for.

    Have you heard of Shakespeare? Can you name anything he wrote? Maybe you know Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet or King Lear. These were all plays performed at the theatre. But Shakespeare has a special way of writin, it was called iambic pentameter. This is a musical rhythm that stresses the second syllable, di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, di-dum. Every sentence in this book uses this rhythm. If you look carefully you may also notice the first letter of each word in a sentence is the same. This is called alliteration, another literary technique.This is a children's book but some of the vocabulary is not so easy, so adults reading this book can also improve their language skills. Every letter of the alphabet has a picture of an animal doing something. Enjoy the colourful illustrations, each one was hand painted by the artist Andy Starck.

    In this collection, the author opens up to share his own reality, a reality that he suspects is owned in some way or other by us all. Here you will find a searing vulnerability delivered with the necessary courage it takes to lay one's soul as bare as the author does.The collection of writings in this book are not great theology, nor do they provide any answers to the deep questions of life and faith. They are not even necessarily good poetry but are simply the honest reflections of a simple single guy on life, faith, church, and God.

Yet I still ached for more! From a youngster within the jungle that is the betting ring, to creating my "showman" persona on the betting stool, to Britain's Got Talent and the downfall which I faced from rejection.From a traveling life and the troubles that come with it.

    Never has the role of women in society been so convoluted as the Victorian era. From gracious to the grotesque, repressed to the risque, it would be an understatement to suggest that the Victorian was the embodiment of all that is meant to be pure. In this book, the author seeks to delve deeper into the minds of characters in Victorian literature to ascertain just how unstable and universal the issues of suppression the issues of secrets have on these characters.

    Unfortunately, we witness human beings killing each other. A very upsetting and worrying situation, it is also strange that we do so yet claim to be the most supernatural creatures in this world. When we have things, we want more; when we do not have things, we complain because we do not have them. We do not usually know what we want because we are human beings. We know how valuable our loved ones are to us once they die because we are human beings. We believe in dreams more than we believe in our friends. We run away from each other when we have problems, but we smile and get together when we have no problems because we are human beings. We are more in love with money than with anything else because we are human beings. We always wait for help rather than proactively help others because we are human beings.This book tries to explain in simple terms how to be a good human being and become successful in life. This book is a tribute to the author's friend, who passed away from leukemia.

    The Defiance - A Socio-economic Problem Solving (Edited Book) Taking the challenge of socio-economic problems and trying to solving them with different techniques and through life models is a fundamental practice for any community's realised development. In this edited book, the authors present a collection of work that addresses this growing discipline taking the 'The Defiance" as the mindset that leads to these cases achievements. The idea behind this work is to explore how defiant socio-economic problems can be tackled, using different approaches and from different perspectives. Therefore, Dr Buheji and Dr Ahmed illustrate for us how socio-economic problem-solving works theoretically and then show a sample of case studies that illustrate the application of the alternative approaches that could come from different areas and fields. Such attempts make our life meaningful and give a sense for the meaning of inspiration.

    With no regrets, three friends committed to break away for an extended weekend to Scandinavia, the homeland of the newest member of the crew, after an evening of imbibing and conversing, of course. In addition to enjoying late winter sun away from day-to-day responsibilities for a period of time, each has his own motivations for the interlude, and who can't use a battery recharge once every so often? Moreover, one spouse is pleased to have an empty house for the space to strategize a rogue trader rebuttal without distraction. The plans go astray though, as one delay turns into another and their intended destination proves elusive. The uncommon characters at Luton Airport, of all places, are entertaining canvass, but the day suddenly becomes a shell game of personal vulnerability, and the pea is not hidden where it's perceived to be. Gate Crashers at Dawn is for anyone who has suffered an interminable delay at an airport and has lived to tell the tale.

    Does it matter what my name is? I am a woman. Does it matter what my religion is? I believe in God. Does it matter what country I come from? I live on earth.I am talking to you. Specifically, I am talking to your mind. Do you agree or disagree with all my philosophical, psychological, and logical thoughts? Some of my thoughts might probably be nonsense and illogical. Sometimes when I think profoundly about a matter, I often come to the conclusion that there is no universal definition for sense or logic and that they vary from one person to another. My thoughts are unsettling for most people and adequate for fewer people.My words can be enticing and eerie but detailed with metaphors you can abide by on the darkest yet most hopeful times. Read me. In this book, I have quite precisely changed the modus operandi in the writing of a novel.www.rima-jbara.com
