Season 1: The Vincibles: Episode 2: Nika by Aaron Patterson,Chris White Pdf

[vincible: a. capable of being overcome or subdued; conquered.] Episode Two: Nika Every story contains faces on the fringes. Those on the outside looking in. Observers who seem to have no power or influence. They're just along for the ride. Or are they? They're people like Nika. A kid stuck in the system, just like her three foster sisters. Nika suffers from a scandalized heart, one that saw too much too soon. She found a reasonable compensation, at least for a time, in the fantasy that she was a queen in search of her true realm. Nika’s sister Greye always had an unhealthy bent for sticking her nose where it didn’t belong. Now Nika can finally see what it’s costing her. The question is, will it cost them all? And if Nika is the good queen she imagines herself to be, how will she lead now that real life has become so threatening? The blood of her murdered father does indeed cry out from the ground. She will be dragged kicking and screaming to the choice she never wanted to have to make: fantasy or reality. The one is deceptively delicious, the other seems to be too difficult to bear. Will she choose to nurse the fantasy, or will she have the strength it takes to stay in the real world and fight for those she loves, even if she knows she can never win? For Nika, the end might look nothing like the fairy tale she was hoping for.

vincible: a. capable of being overcome or subdued; conquered.] Episode Three: Sydney Every story contains faces on the fringes. Those on the outside looking in. Observers who seem to have no power or influence. They're just along for the ride. Or are they? They're people like Sydney. A castaway loner at 14, a girl nobody ever wanted, Sydney keeps a go bag, her runaway kit, under her bed. She spends her life in support of others because she's too scared that if she takes any kind of responsibility, she'll screw things up. After all, that's how her birth father raised her. Sydney’s sisters Greye and Nika are both missing. The police are asking questions, and her answers aren't satisfactory. Sydney can sense time is running short, that she's stuck between the cops, Miss Ivy--her terrible foster mom, and this nameless evil that seems to be picking off her sisters one by one. In the end, Sydney is going to have to make a choice she never wanted to make. If she runs, will she get anywhere, or will she only be making things worse? Most important, will the sale of her soul be worth whatever pittance she gets in return? Will the fulfillment of a dream look more like a nightmare? Sydney's world might just collide into another she never imagined could be true.

[vincible: a. capable of being overcome or subdued; conquered.] Episode Four: Anna Every story contains faces on the fringes. Those on the outside looking in. Observers who seem to have no power or influence. They're just along for the ride. Or are they? They're people like Anna. She lost the gift of her sight at age ten, when her life took a turn for the worse, in the direction of her wicked foster mom, Miss Ivy. That was four years ago. Still, it was all pretty much bearable because of her sisters, Greye, Nika, and Sydney. But now all three of them are gone. So what about Anna? She knows Greye would dig into the headlines and make the necessary deductions. Nika would take the lead and get them moving in a direction by hook or by crook. And Sydney would add that all-important fifth element by encouraging and supporting every one of them. But what can Anna do? She's just a girl, at the mercy of her antagonists because of her blindness. It is a crippling liability. Or is it? Anna's world is about to change forever. When there are no heroes left, those to whom the sword falls become the most unlikely candidates in the war for all that is good. Will Anna be more than what she's ever known? Will she be... invincible?

Along Ukraine's River by Roman Adrian Cybriwsky Pdf

The River Dnipro (formerly better known by the Russian name of Dnieper) is intimately linked to the history and identity of Ukraine. Cybriwsky discusses the history of the river, from when it was formed and its many uses and modifications by human agencies from ancient times to the present. From key vantage points along the river’s course—its source in western Russia, through Belarus and Ukraine, to the Black Sea—interesting stories shed light on past and present life in Ukraine. Scenes set along the river from Russian and Ukrainian literature are evoked, as well as musical compositions and works of art. Topics include the legacy of the region’s cultural ancestors as the Kyivan Rus, the period of Cossack dominion, the epic battles for the river’s bridges in World War II, the building of dams and huge reservoirs by the Soviet Union, and the crisis of Chornobyl (Chernobyl). The author argues that the Dnipro and the farmlands along it are Ukraine’s chief natural resources, and that the country's future depends on putting both to good use. Written without academic pretence in an informal style with dashes of humor, Along Ukraine's River is illustrated with original line drawings, maps, and photographs.

The Selected Works of Enver Hoxha by Enver Hoxha Pdf

Enver Halil Hoxha (1908 – 1985) was a Marxist–Leninist revolutionary and the leader of Albania from the end of World War II until his death in 1985, as the First Secretary of the Party of Labour of Albania. He also served as Prime Minister of Albania from 1944 to 1954, Minister of Defence, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Chairman of the Democratic Front from 1945 to his death, and as Commander-in-Chief of the Albanian armed forces from 1944 to his death. Hoxha's leadership was characterized by his proclaimed firm adherence to anti-revisionist Marxism–Leninism from the mid-1970s onwards. After his break with Maoism in the 1976–1978 period, numerous Maoist parties declared themselves Hoxhaist. The International Conference of Marxist–Leninist Parties and Organizations (Unity & Struggle) is the most well known collection of these parties today.

Gifts of the Desert by Kyriacos C. Markides Pdf

In Kyriacos C. Markides’s newest book, Eastern Orthodox mysticism meets Western Christianity as the internationally renowned author takes readers on a deep journey back in time to unveil the very roots of authentic spirituality. In his previous book The Mountain of Silence, Markides introduced us to the essential spiritual nature of Eastern Orthodoxy in a series of lively conversations with Father Maximos, the widely revered charismatic Orthodox bishop and former abbot of the isolated monastery on Mount Athos. In Gifts of the Desert, Markides continues his examination of Easter Orthodox mystical teachings and practices and captures its living expression through visits to monasteries and hermitages in Greece and America and interviews with contemporary charismatic elders, both male and female. Markides’s pursuit of a deeper understanding of Orthodoxy takes him to the deserts of Arizona and a stay at a new monastery in Sedona; to the island of Cyprus and a reunion with Father Maximos; on a pilgrimage to holy shrines aboard a cruise ship in the Aegean Sea; and finally to the legendary Mount Athos, home to more than two thousand Orthodox monks. Markides relates his journey and reflections in a captivating style while providing important background material and information on historical events to give readers a highly accessible, in-depth portrait of a tradition little known in the West. Gifts of the Desert will appeal to a wide range of people, from Christians seeking insights into their religion and its various expressions to scholars interested in learning more about the mystical way of life and wisdom that have been preserved on Mount Athos since the fall of the Byzantine Empire and the Great Schism that separated the Eastern and Western Churches. Perhaps most important, however, is the bridge it offers contemporary readers to a Christian life that is balanced between the worldly and the spiritual.
