From an early age, Asa embraces his parent's vision of education as the escape route from poverty. Limiting themselves to one meal a day they scraped and saved to give him the education they were denied by lack. He grows up with hope of a better future which he believes a good education will provide. With determination but without the necessary resources he graduates university at the top of his class. He expects to get a job and make a decent living but he finds himself, instead, year after year unemployed.
When his father dies following a ghastly bus accident, Asa, the only son, must take on the role of provider for his mother and three sisters. Still jobless more than four years after university graduation, he must take desperate measures to ensure the survival of the family in a country where corruption has crumbled infrastructure and extinguished employment opportunities.
Asa, like his fellow citizens, has no ammunition against the state governor, who is depriving citizens of their livelihood by catering more to the good of his pocket than the duties of his office. He cruises the world with his family on private jets and makes no distinction between the state coffers and his personal accounts. He surrounds himself with a horde of bodyguards and police that kill at whim. With the judiciary in his pocket, the governor gives off an aura of invincibility. But he is not alone. At every parastatal, at every level of government, public officials are stealing without restraint.
Faced with the choice of surviving through nefarious means or succumbing to a life that can lead only to starvation for himself and his family, Asa finds himself at a dangerous crossroads, torn between choices that will change the course of his life forever.
Based on true events, The Land That Shivers is an emotionally intense story of survival that becomes an uplifting tale of the power of tenacity and the victory of the human spirit.
Ronald Chetwynd-Hayes, England's very own 'Prince of Chill', would have been 100 years old in 2019. To celebrate this, fifteen of the finest authors currently working in the supernatural genre have come together to contribute new tales of The Monster Club, Clavering Grange, Temptations Unlimited, Madam Orloff, Vampires, Ghosts and of course Shadmocks. Chetwynd-Hayes himself is represented by one of his classic Francis St. Clare and Frederica Masters stories. Those who are already fans will be sure to enjoy this selection of genuinely creepy stories, all of which are seasoned with a taste of the trademark Chetwynd-Hayes humour.

Описание: It's 1873, only a few years after the Civil War, and the West is changing. But there is still one town where good citizens can feel safe. When the sheriff of Silver Vein is killed, it's up to saloon keeper Curly Barnes - an admitted coward - to see that justice is done. Along for the ride are two legendary Texas Rangers, the soon-to-be famous outlaw Johnny Ringo, and a couple of brothers who like to play with dynamite. But after the dust settles, who will be the last man standing?
When a child is old enough to use a computer, iPad or cell phone it is time for him to be warned about the danger of pornography (bad pictures) through parental conversations, and Bible-based age-appropriate resources (not their friends or internet). Families must constantly be pro-active in protecting their children from pornography's erotic and deviant material lest they become victimized by its deceitful and poisonous lure.
This illustrated book (designed for kids to read themselves) tastefully, tactfully and simply warns young children of the danger of obscene material from a Christian perspective. The preface (addressed to parents or custodians of children) provides helpful guidance in talking to children about pornography.

Makerspaces—local workshops that offer access to and training on fabrication technologies, often with a focus on creativity, education, and entrepreneurship—proliferated in the 2010s, popping up in cities across the world. Beyond the Makerspace is a longitudinal, ethnographically informed study of a particular Seattle makerspace that begins in 2015 and ends with the closing of the space in 2018. Examining acts of making with objects, tools, words, and relationships, Beyond the Makerspace reads making as a kind of rhetoric, or meaning-making work, and argues that acts of making things are rhetorical in the sense that they are culturally situated and that they mark boundaries of what counts as making and who counts as maker. By focusing on a particular makerspace over time, Shivers-McNair attends to a changing cohort of makerspace regulars as they face challenges of bringing their vision of inclusivity and diversity to fruition, and offers an examination of how makers are made (and unmade, and remade) in a makerspace.
Beyond the Makerspace contributes not only to our understanding of making and makerspaces, but also to our understanding of how to study making—and meaning making, more broadly—in ways that examine and intervene in the marking of difference. Thus, the book examines what (and whose) values and practices we are taking up when we identify as makers or when we turn a writing classroom or a library space into a makerspace.
