People over Politics? The job of a newspaper is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable — Finley Peter Dunne. It feels like Portland staggers from crisis to crisis, and the Eyewitness News staggers along with the city — trying to cover the challenges the city faces, while dealing with their own personal crises too. It's not easy — just ask Blair Williams. She's been hiding her brains behind a flippy, cheerleader persona. But now, EWN needs her to step up and become the cutthroat reporter she really is. But deep inside, Blair knows that nobody likes a smart girl. Will being the smart woman be any different? She's about to find out. This is the sixth omnibus in Newsroom PDX, a pollical suspense series about a college newsroom in downtown Portland during some of the most tumultuous times the city has ever faced. Foul language. Some sex. Lots of politics. Rather like the city itself. This omnibus includes Smart Girl, Hero, and A Story Well Told.
It's Personal Dystopian fiction from today's headlines — Goodreads Reviewer This is the fifth omnibus in Newsroom PDX, a pollical suspense series about a college newsroom in downtown Portland during some of the most tumultuous times the city has ever faced. College is a time when you figure out who you are, and who you want to be. Even in calm times, that's not always easy — and no one would claim that Portland was going through a calm period! Meet Corey, who has always been seen as everyone's kid brother, and Cinder, who burned all the bridges to her past — she thought, and Joe, the newsroom stoner whose younger sibling just came calling. Foul language. Some sex. Lots of politics. Rather like the city itself. This omnibus includes Seen, Past Lives, and Life in Focus.
PDX Portland 2022 Spring-Fall by L.J. Breedlove Pdf
Who Decides Who You Are? The personal is political. — Carol Hanisch What if you know something, but you're not sure what it is you know, and moreover, you're not sure anyone would believe you if you told them? P3 — Percy Abbott III — is afraid to find out. Jennifer's willingness to copyedit the reams of writing by inexperienced reporters makes the newsroom favorite. Nobody messes with the copyeditor! It's a rule. (And this gang of non-conformists have few rules they're willing to abide by.) But going out for coffee isn't going to hurt anything. Right? Portland is famous for its literary community of writers, readers, bookstores, coffeehouses, and literary magazines like the Portland Review — a part of Newsroom PDX. Covid had been devastating, but the literary community is coming back. But the scars from the pandemic haven't gone away. This is the seventh omnibus in Newsroom PDX, a pollical suspense series about a college newsroom in downtown Portland during some of the most tumultuous times the city has ever faced. Foul language. Some sex. Lots of politics. Rather like the city itself. This omnibus includes Who Do I Tell?, My Body, and A Literary Life.
Can there be a third way? There exists a set of myths and prophesies known as the Wolf's Codex — the Okami Kōdekkusu, probably the only written history of the shifter species. It comes from the before times, it's said. Lost for millennia, maybe more, most people dismiss it as a myth itself. But some things are known. In an oral culture like the shifters, stories have been passed down from storyteller to storyteller. The Codex is supposed to have predicted a third way to come for shifters. First way — Shifter warlords led troops of shifters into battle for land and resources. Women of power were forced to serve, channeling their power at the warlord's command. Second way —In current times, power resides with the Alpha, and a Council of Alphas mediates disputes without warfare, making the top Alphas very powerful indeed with no one to check their abuses. And the third way. No one knows what is meant by that — neither those who fear it and are willing to destroy the Hat Island pack to stop it, nor those who want to see it come. But they all seem to think Abby Stafford might be the one to lead them there. The Okami Kōdekkusu may have some answers. And now, one man might know where it is. The race is on.
Hungry for a Home When newly made shifter men started turning up in Vancouver, the Alpha thought it was a boon — he wanted an army to march against the shifter rulers on the Northwest Council of Alphas. He didn't ask many questions. He should have. Now he's dead at the hands of the Hat Island Alpha, but the young shifters keep coming. Some of them are from small packs or shifter families looking for a better life than the remote regions of northern Canada. But some? They were human not that long ago. And now they're shifters. Clueless about shifter culture, clueless about most everything, really. On top of everything else, the Hat Island pack is faced with hundreds of newly made shifters. One thing is clear. Someone has figured out how to make shifters out of humans. They call him the Pied Piper. And he's not done yet. Book 4 in the Wolf Harbor Rescue series.
She Has No One Else to Turn to Kate Fairchild was waiting in the conference room of the Seattle Examiner when Mac Davis got off deadline. Well, she probably wasn't Fairchild anymore, Mac thought. She'd gotten married, and she was the type of woman who would take her husband's name. Kate was tense, upset about something, nervously twisting her hands together. She'd once been taken hostage by a deranged gunman and never lost her serene poise. He grimaced. It must be bad for her to come here. "Kate?" he asked. "What's wrong?" "I need your help," she said simply, and she slid a snapshot across the table to him. It was an old photo, taken with a cheap camera, Mac thought, as he looked at it curiously. The photo was of a tall white man, with his arm around a woman — Asian, maybe Cambodian, maybe Vietnamese. A young girl stood in front of them. Their daughter, he guessed. He looked at Kate, and raised his eyebrow. "The girl in the photo came to see me at U-Dub," she said. "She gave me the photo, and said she needs my help." Mac frowned. "I'm not tracking." "That's my father, Mac," Kate said. "Does he look dead to you?" Mac looked back at the photo. No, he conceded, he didn't look dead to him. Book 6 in in the Mac Davis thriller series features a Marine turned cop reporter in Seattle.

Then They Came For the Journalists The student-run Eyewitness News has been committed to covering the Black Lives Matter protests in downtown Portland. It hasn't been easy. But now, white supremacy groups have EWN in their sights. They're coming for them. EWN has three rules: Stay safe. Get the story. Come back. It may not be possible to do all three. Foul language.

Then They Came for the Journalists Will Bristol never intended to be editor-in-chief of Eyewitness News in downtown Portland. He had planned to coast through his senior year as an investigative reporter, build his portfolio and go out to a newspaper somewhere to start his career. When there was no one else to do but an unqualified white supremacist who wanted to dismantle the newsroom piece by piece, Will knew he had to step up.

This is a boxed set of books in Newsroom PDX, a series about a college newsroom in downtown Portland during some of the most tumultuous times the city has ever faced. Meet Will Bristol, the reluctant editor-in-chief, Bianca Parks, whose face on the nightly news has made her a target, and Ben Waters, who has always done what his tribe has asked, even now, when he's asked to come home.

Textbooks on Israel-Palestine by Seyed Hadi Borhani Pdf
How is the Israel/Palestine question narrated in Western academia? What ideas dominate the key textbooks on the subject and what is presented as 'truth'? This book answers these critical questions. It is widely known that Western support of Israel played a vital role in the realization of Zionist objectives in Palestine. But academic support of Israel in the West has been a neglected issue, with Western academic knowledge being regarded as impartial and objective. This book reveals that this understanding of Western academic knowledge is wrong when it comes to the Israel/Palestine question. Rather, knowledge has been biased, misleading, and dogmatic and Western college students are subscribing to 'factual histories' based on theories at best, if not fiction. The book is the first empirical investigation able to document this partial reporting of history. Seyed Hadi Borhani examines the most popular college-level textbooks used to teach the history of the Israel/Palestine in Western universities, combining 'textbook analysis' (to determine how the dominant academic texts report the question) and a 'context analysis' (to identify who 'manufactures' the dominant knowledge). The book provides a historical map of how the Israel-Palestine conflict is understood in the West. The book can be used as a critique for students and professors to use alongside textbooks and is a vital and much-needed intervention into the state of affairs in Western academia.
