Tales of ghostly spirits envelop the northeast Tennessee landscape like a familiar mountain fog. Join Pete Dykes, editor of Kingsport's "Daily News," as he offers up a collection of spooky local stories and legends from centuries past, including such spine-chilling accounts as the foreboding ghost of Netherland Inn Road, spectral disturbances at the Rotherwood Mansion, devilish felines, ruthless poltergeists in Caney Creek Falls, the tortured cries from fallen Rebel soldiers still heard today- and could bigfoot really be buried in the woods of Big Stone Gap?
'My name Mbu is a short version of Mbuyiseli, which in isiXhosa means something like "the one who returns something."? I once asked my mom why she gave me this name. She said: "I never got anything from life; I hope to get something back from my children one day ... maybe from you."' In this moving and gripping tale of his life, Mbu recounts his childhood growing up in the shacks of some of the poorest townships in the Eastern and Western Cape; the battle to survive hunger, neglect and sleeping on the streets; the beloved older brother who took care of him as a toddler; the unwavering dream of education that kept him going; and the search for values and dignity in a world of alcohol, drugs, crime and few positive role models. Mbu's story is the story of countless other young men and women in South Africa, born into similar situations of hardship, growing up abandoned or neglected by parents themselves in need of parenting. What makes his story different is that it is a journey not of despair but transformation, lit by the kindness of friends and strangers, and Mbu's own determination not to stop hoping for a better life. Mbu Maloni lives in HOKISA Children's Home in Masiphumelele Township, Cape Town South Africa. He is currently in Grade 11, and plans to matriculate next year. This book is dedicated to a dear friend of his and serves to provide hope for the many 'street children' out there who, if they believe strongly enough in something positive, can achieve more than they are often led to believe. Lutz van Dijk is an internationally acclaimed writer, who, amongst other books, has published the bestseller "Stronger than the Storm," the novels "Romeo and Jabulile" and "Themba" (made into a movie in 2010) and "A History of Africa" (preface by Archbishop Tutu).

Anxious, or Stressed

Almal van ons het al laagtepunte beleef, daar waar dit voel asof jou bodem uitgeval en of die enigste wiele wat jy gehad het, totaal afgekom het. Suid. Ongelukkig het ons nie ‘n ander keuse as om alles bymekaar te maak en aan te gaan nie. Die lewe wag vir niemand nie. Die doel van Opgee se Gat is om jou te help om op te staan en aan te gaan, en om nooit op te hou opstaan nie – ons is nie gemaak om te bly lê nie, ongeag hoe hard die klap is wat die lewe jou gegee het. Die fokus is op hoe om “opgee bestand” te word – wat is dit wat ons in plek moet hê om seker te maak dat ons nooit gaan lê nie. Die gesprek begin by die huidige wêreld van werk, dit help jou om te verstaan waar jy tans is, beweeg aan na navigering deur moeilike tye, en lei jou deur die Oorlewing en Groei Piramiede, asook die Oorlewing en Groei Trio. Beide hierdie is gefokus om jou toe te rus met die vaardighede, eienskappe en houdings wat noodsaaklik is om opgee bestand te wees – om nie net te oorleef in moeilike tye nie, maar ook om te floreer. Niemand van ons is immuun teen moeilike tye en teëspoed nie – die vraag is of jy voorbereid is om dit te hanteer. Opgee se Gat neem jou op ‘n reis om elke dag meer opgee bestand te word, op ‘n baie praktiese manier. Jare se praktiese afrigting word hier geboekstaaf sodat jy self die reis kan aanpak. Niemand kom jou red nie – dit is jou eie verantwoordelikheid!
A ground-breaking and deeply moving report from the front lines of the battle to protect a woman's right to abortion. On Friday 24 June 2022, women's rights suffered an extraordinary and unprecedented blow. Five US Supreme Court justices made a decision that will impact millions of lives for years to come. In this gripping blend of reportage and history, journalist Becca Andrews tells the story how we have arrived at this devastating turning point. NO CHOICE introduces the origin of abortion and its practice in global cultures, before focusing its gaze on the battle that has been waged for the past century across America, shining a light on the eerie ways in which life before Roe will be mirrored in life after. The wealthy and privileged will still have access, low-income people will suffer disproportionately, and pregnancy will be heavily policed. Taking us to the frontlines - to clinics, courtrooms, local communities, charities - Andrews tells the deeply moving stories of those who have had abortions, and those who have fought - and are fighting - for the right to abortion. There is a glimmer of faint hope, though. As the battle moves to state legislatures around the country, the book profiles the people who are doing ground-breaking, inspiring work to ensure safe, legal access to this fundamental part of healthcare.
