Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This story is set in Fundão, Portugal, gateway to Europe's most productive tungsten mine. It is a story of an innocent girl thrust into prostitution amidst the intrigues of British and German spy rings infesting neutral Portugal during the early 1940's. This was a dark and turbulent period in which tiny, defenseless Portugal cowered beneath the ominous shadows of occupation by Nazi Germany and even Franco's fascist Spain. Beneath the veneer of humor, sex and murder in this story, lies the stark reality that Germany could not achieve its goal of European domination without the iron and tungsten of neutral Sweden and Portugal. These necessary wartime commodities were purchased with gold looted from Europe's central banks by the ever resourceful Nazis. After the fall of France in 1940, only the grit and determination of the British spies stood in opposition to Hitler's insidious and evil visions for Portugal.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Remarks of Father Craft - Missionary to the Indians. 1889 Great Plains: 'Indians were not fools but men of keen intelligence. Reductions in rations increased fears. Census takers made grave mistakes, counted less than the real numbers; agents made false reports of prosperity that did not exist. It is not to be wondered that they finally came to believe in a Messiah whom they at first doubted, and listened to every deceiver who promised hope. 'Interested whites took advantage of this state and howled for troops; the army protested their false statements but were required to go to the scene of supposed dangers. Persuaded by some whites that their entire destruction was aimed at, the Indians ran away in fear and despair.'.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - El malestar creciente que sufren las familias y escuelas, como resultado del grave deterioro del tejido social en el país, es un tema que preocupa a todos. Se han recibido denuncias y quejas en torno a este complejo problema, particularmente por la manifestación de múltiples casos de adicciones que se presentan en los escenarios escolares y los incidentes de pandillerismo y violencia que los acompañan, en especial en el núcleo de población adolescente, donde se presentan los mayores estragos. Los sentimientos que expresan los maestros, los padres de familia y los ciudadanos en general, llevan a los estudiosos a observar con preocupación las consecuencias de estos fenómenos sobre las funciones de la escuela y los aprendizajes. Algunos de ellos van más allá y escudriñan los alcances de esta problemática en los años futuros, cuando a las actuales generaciones le sea demandada su incorporación a las fuentes de trabajo o posiciones de responsabilidad en la vida social. Estas y otras condiciones que se observan en las escuelas y en las familias, nos ha llevado a presentar un planteamiento de fondo, para la superación de la causa raíz de este problema de la descomposición escolar, y sus manifestaciones en el terreno de las adicciones en los centros escolares. [Es urgente, que sea la sociedad misma, la que emprenda las acciones necesarias para proteger a los suyos, e iniciar un programa extraordinario de intervención en las escuelas, en trabajo conjunto de la sociedad civil junto a autoridades e instituciones, para encontrar las formas de resolver este difícil problema que nos aqueja a todos, pues son las escuelas y las familias, ejes centrales en nuestra supervivencia como nación.] (Escuelas de Paz, 2014). Los alcances de la tarea, en la que es necesario participen gobiernos y ciudadanos, las escuelas mismas, padres de familia, maestros, la sociedad civil organizada así como los estudiosos y especialistas en el tema, es de suyo mayúscula. Es necesario ante todo trabajar en el conocimiento del fenómeno, reuniendo evidencias de sus características y manifestaciones, a fin de responder las interrogantes más elementales primero, y después las más complejas. Cuestiones acerca de ¿cómo se manifiestan las adicciones en las escuelas , ¿cuáles sus principales indicadores , ¿qué ocurre en general en el sector de los jóvenes , ¿qué ocurre en las familias , ¿cómo prevenir las adicciones en las escuelas , ¿cómo crear las condiciones saludables en ellas para que los estudiantes participen con entusiasmo en su proyecto de vida, hoy en formación Estas son algunas de las cuestiones de mayor relieve que han llevado los Organismos de la Sociedad Civil, al presentar esta propuesta para la elaboración de un programa de prevención, intervención y erradicación de las adicciones, y robustecer una cultura en general de paz y sana convivencia en los entornos escolares y las familias como médula de nuestra sociedad. Esta es la razón fundamental de este documento. Expresa nuestra preocupación, al mismo tiempo que invita a padres de familia, maestros, profesionistas, grupos de la sociedad civil y a la comunidad en general, a unirse a esta iniciativa y luchar juntos, por el rescate de nuestras escuelas. Para generar en las escuelas ambientes saludables, libres de adicciones, en donde se estimule el estudio y el aprendizaje. Expresamos un sincero reconocimiento de todas las asociaciones, comunidades y organismos de la sociedad civil, que han expresado su apoyo, aportando sus experiencias y con quienes compartimos un genuino interés por 'la regeneración del tejido social, con prevención de adicciones y del delito, por la recuperación de espacios públicos para las familias mexicanas, por el fortalecimiento y promoción de la cultura física, del deporte y el ocio recreativo y saludable'.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The light of Christ is passed from one generation to the next, keeping the faith alive. Christian Nurture in the Twenty-First Century imagines a new vision for sharing the Christian faith with young people. Based on scripture and a fresh look at how Christian education was done in the past, this book presents new ideas and models of nurturing the Christian faith of young people. Cynthia Coe asks church leaders to give the ministry of Christian education a 'fresh think' and explore new but more effective means of passing the Christian faith to young people. Coe also gives churches a theological and scriptural basis for trying new ways of Christian formation, such as paying Sunday School teachers - providing well trained, well prepared teachers in a world where volunteers simply can't or won't spend the time to provide effective Christian education programs. She also strongly advocates teaching parents who never learned the basics of Christianity before these young parents attempt to ingrain their children in Christian values and morals.In a series of essays included in this book, Cynthia Coe tackles many specific challenges facing Christian educators, such as quality adult programming, Vacation Bible School programming, and how to reach children most in need.Based on her field experience as a Director of Children's Ministries and curriculum developer of Christian education resources, Cynthia Coe presents a fresh voice and insightful ideas to better pass the faith to young people in the twenty-first century.Cynthia Coe is an honors graduate of Virginia Theological Seminary and the University of Tennessee College of Law. She also holds a degree with highest honors in the College Scholars program of the University of Tennessee, focusing on Honors History.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The Illiterate is an absurdist comedy about a writer named Jones who wakes up one morning unable to read. After discovering his illiteracy, Jones consults a number of doctors and friends. But instead of providing relief, his encounters make him increasingly confused and ultimately cause his life to fall apart. His illiteracy creates an existential crisis - a crisis further complicated by the simple fact that Jones suffers from an ailment that no one he seeks help from can understand. Feeling alienated from his former life, Jones eventually embraces the nihilism his new condition seems to push him toward.

In the end, left with only a crippling sense of paranoia, Jones decides to leave the city for good in order to distance himself from his past and focus on his future. Immediately after he acts on this resolution and finds himself in a car speeding away from the city, Jones discovers that, oddly enough, he can read once again.…
