Elizabeth Warren shares the incredible story of the first female
senator of Massachusetts. Elizabeth came from a struggling
middle-class family in Oklahoma City. After a heart attack put
Elizabeth's father out of work, she helped out by babysitting,
waitressing, and sewing, all while shining as a star member of her
school's debate team. Debate taught Elizabeth how to fight with her
words, a skill that eventually won her a state championship and a
college scholarship. As a lawyer and law professor, Elizabeth
learned why it was so difficult for working-class families like her
own to advance economically, and today she continues to fight (with
her words) for the poor and middle-class in her role as a senator.
Releasing in time for the 2018 election season, Elizabeth Warren
emphasizes the importance of being outspoken-of using your words to
fight for both yourself and for those who need your help.

facts about raptors with stunning photographs to enhance this

The Apostle Paul talked of "The Offense of the Gospel of Christ -
the Finished Work." This book expounds on what changed Paul's life
when he was told of the Gospel of Christ and dives in deep in
regard to Law vs. Grace and the redeeming work of Christ on the
cross. Pride in man would try and keep him from thinking that the
work was complete and that he needed to "do" something to earn or
keep his newly found redemption, making it an offense to see that
it is already a done deal. Christ paid the supreme price.
This full-colour kaleidoscope of over 150 photographs by one of
North America's leading photographers evokes a pre-Celtic Tiger
Ireland, recording a world on the cusp of radical change: a
time-capsule of personalities and landscapes, professions and
activities, caught in the amber of the camera's eye. Beginning with
an Irish assignment from British Vogue in 1969, Woods' interest
deepened with marriages to two Irish husbands, and she developed an
abiding love for the people and places documented in subsequent
decades. This Valentine to Ireland is now gathered into one
resonant volume of images and visual epiphanies. The work ranges
across the Irish countryside. Departing from Dublin and Wicklow, it
extends to Roscommon and the Shannon estuary, recording street
scenes, Travellers, the hunt, cattle marts and pub, cottage and
country-house interiors. Six of the eight photo-essays focus on
leading personalities: Garech Brown of Luggala, founder of Claddagh
Records; the late Desmond FitzGerald, last knight of Glin; Marina
Guinness, chatelaine; the late J.P. Donleavy, novelist, at home in
County Westmeath; Hector McDonnell, artist, at home in Glenarm; and
Tim Pat Coogan, historian.
