Tuổi Trẻ Này Là Để Tìm Nhau (Tặng Kèm Sổ Tay - Số Lượng Có Hạn) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Hi Trần

I think the best thing that I can say about The Time Traveller’s Wife is that I stayed up until 4 in the morning on a Wednesday to finish it. I could not stop reading this book. And there’s a librarian in it, and he’s cool. And there’s time travel, as you might possibly have guessed. Yeah, it’s a pretty good one.

I am so ashamed to admit this. I read Emma as a freshman in college and had to write a paper on it. I just didn't "get" Jane Austen. I began my paper thus: In my opinion, Jane Austen should have died in the cradle." I felt she took ages to say the most simple thing. I'm happy to say I've improved and have read all of Jane Austen and love her.

These are just some notes on the book so far. If I finish it, I may summarize or review it. Edit- Didn't finish it. Don't think I will. Content is good and I'm glad he put this out there (people need to know), but I heard him every time he went on NPR, Democracy Now or any other show, so reading the book seems a little repetitive. I gave this a low rating because I couldn't get through it, not because the subject was bad or I think Blackwater/ Xe is a great company or think that government contractors operating in an abyss of lawlessness between the US and the foreign country of choice is good. *** I found some people and some policies of confidentiality and secrecy to be reminiscent of The Family. I need to look at the foot notes to see if he references it. So far, he hasn't mentioned them in the text. P 16 Council for National Policy - started 1981 by Rev. Tim LaHaye to oppose Council on Foreign Relations ***Red flag- this guy is the same LaHaye of the Left Behind novels that promote the false doctrine of premillennialism. Christians would do well to take note and be careful of throwing their support behind such people just because they "appear Christian" or support other right wing causes that Christians tend to support! Council for National Policy -Members are told to keep when and where and who attends meetings (before or after) secret from media -“to strategize about how to turn the country to the right” 102 ***Interesting. I have had conservative friends proudly say this is a center right country. Is it that way because people have Republican leanings or because they were manipulated by this and other groups like it that may have politicized and made divisive certain issues or however else they "turned the country to the right"... ? Erik Prince is unconfirmed as a member of this group, but he has given money to it and is close with other attendees such as: Jerry Falwell, Phyllis Schlafly, Pat Robertson, Tony Perkins, James Dobson, Gary Bauer, Ralph Reed, Holland Coors (beer), Wayne LaPierre (NRA), Richard and Dick DeVos, Oliver North, Grover Norquist, Frank Gaffney, GWB- addressed group in 1999. Rumsfeld, Cheney, Bolton, Ashcroft, Dan Senor (top aide to Bremer), DeLay, Frist (given an award by them) - Many of these are in The Family... *** P18 Chuck Colson (also influential in The Family) Prison ministry 2002 speech - praised Erik Prince, talked of need for political and religious alliance of Catholics and evangelicals P. 20 Colson, Richard Neuhaus and others - document Evangelicals and Catholics Together (ECT) Common missionary cause “all people will come to faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior” (This doesn't sound bad- it sound good- but I disagree strongly with where they take it.) “The document recognized the separation of church and state, but “just as strongly protest[ed] the distortion of that principle to mean the separation of religion from public life…The argument, increasingly voiced in sectors of our political culture, that religion should be excluded from the public square must be recognized as an assault upon the most elementary principles of democratic governance.” “ (p20) (Again, I agree that separation of church and state shouldn't mean religion is banned in public life, but I also disagree with how much and what kind of religion is put into public life and how it is done. I also take issue with branding those who disagree with the way, say Republicans, aim to use or keep religion in public life, you are un-American, undemocratic and un-Christian) Religion is “privileged and foundational in our legal order” Need to defend “the moral truths of our constitutional order” (This is a religious declaration- or so I thought. What is the constitution doing in it? God doesn't care what type of government we're under. The teachings are the same. This phrase seems to put the Constitution on the level of the Bible in the minds of some or that we should legislate all Bible truth in order to be faithful.) Abortion was a big topic in ECT- called “culture of death” (Abortion is murder, but "culture of death"?? This is Bush-style hype.) Advocates “moral education” - giving future generations our cultural heritage, that is, Christianity and Judaism. (Why a Christian would put Judaism on the level Christianity is beyond me. Given other moral issues they take a stand on, it seems they would want to make the Biblical distinction that Jews are in the same boat as Muslims today- they need to obey Christ. But, instead, they uphold Israel and it's war crimes as honorable and Muslims as incapable of anything good.) “We contend for a free society, including a vibrant market economy.” (Again, I'm fine with a religious statement. I'm not saying I'm going to endorse it, but go ahead if it reduces animosity between Catholics and Protestants. Help people find Christ. That is truly a great goal. Now, what on earth does salvation have to do with the economy???) “We affirm the importance of a free economy not only because it is more efficient but because it accords with a Christian understanding of human freedom” (also something I can’t wrap my brain around- is there some Biblical example or preference or word on type of government or economy we should advocate for?? Total garbage. The Bible is about teaches one to be faithful and teaching others about Christ) “Economic freedom, while subject to grave abuse, makes possible the patterns of creativity, cooperation, and accountability that contribute to the common good.” (Sounds like more of a nod and help to the billionaires that started The Family, CNP, etc, but putting a Biblical spin on it so everyone else can voluntarily help them stay rich at their own expense.) “renewed appreciation of Western culture” (Sounds like a bit of American hubris, but what comes next is much more sinister...) “We are keenly aware of, and grateful for, the role of Christianity in shaping and sustaining the Western culture of which we are apart.” “Multiculturalism” most commonly come to mean “affirming all cultures but our own” (Scary as a similar sort of thing appears in white supremacist type rants. Perhaps black folks are meant to be included in "our culture", but like I said, this is unsettling. Even if this does include African Americans, I disagree with the statement and think adopting a French style culture protection is wrong- especially given that most of us aren't Native American and so don't really have the right.) The document says that now is the time for Catholics and Evangelicals to be Christians together in a way that prepares the world for the coming of Christ. It is a noble enough goal, but in the context of the political and economic goals also mentioned, it really doesn’t have much to do with this goal. And another issue is the differences in doctrine between the two and more importantly, how much should we in the Lord’s body be involved with these two. Should we use them to the extent that they follow the Bible, or just blaze a new trail? I vote for the latter since I have no use for either the Republican or Democratic party.

This book was really well written. The family dynamics made the book. I enjoyed it until the very end, and then I was extremely disappointing. Still worth reading though.

I really loved this book. A look into life in Afghanistan, the relationship between fathers and sons, and the emotional struggle that emigrating to the States can be... very good.

Sự Tích Cây Xấu Hổ (Song Ngữ) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nhiều Tác Giả

This is a pretty quick and engaging read that really helped me to understand the viewpoints of those fighting in Iraq. I liked that the author showed some balance in describing the violence against both sides of the conflict. He did not shy away from describing the injuries and deaths to civilians, insurgents and U.S. troops; however, he was not excessively grotesque in describing these situations. What surprised me is how much he focused on the emotional response the soldiers experienced when witnessing the effects of war on the civilians. This really resonated with me and made it more educational to me. For me, the book's lowpoint is its machismo, but this is a book about Marines and war and you can't fault the author for telling it like it is. Nonetheless, some of the dialogue is a bit cliche.

Trang Trại Tình Yêu Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Carole Mortimer

My mini-review can also be found on my blog Collections. 3.5 stars I have to admit that Tris and Tobias, especially Tris, were really frustrating me throughout the book. And I didn't feel a connection towards the other characters (I got REALLY tired of hearing about Will) or the story till the last page of chapter 30. That's when things started getting good, in my opinion. Tris was finally making sense. But then! Sadly, I felt it went back to the way it was before once Tris started acting pretty much the same way she was acting in the beginning of the book. Keeping secrets, like she's the only who can do or understand things. Plus, ALL the adults annoyed me. UGH. I guess I'll read the last book, but I'm not feeling much for it right now.

Nói Tiếng Anh Lưu Loát Theo Tình Huống - Tập 4 (Kèm 2 VCD) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nguyễn Thành Yến

Er hatte sich selbst und der Welt geschworen, niemanden mehr zu hypnotisieren, aber als Erik Maria Bark zu einem Fall hinzugezogen wird, um das einzige überlebende Opfer eines brutalen Familienmordes zu befragen, das schwer verletzt im Krankenhaus liegt, um die getrennt von der Familie lebende Tochter zu retten, bevor der Killer auch sie findet, bricht er sein Versprechen und tritt damit eine Lawine los, die sehr schnell auch seine eigene Familie bedroht, sein Sohn, ein Bluter und auf regelmässige Medikamente angewiesen wird entführt. Eric muss sich mit der eigenen Vergangenheit auseinandersetzen um seinen Sohn zu retten. Das Buch hat mir trotz allem recht gut gefallen, es war sehr spannend und ein echter page-turner. Bei den vielen Themen und Thrillerzutaten, die das Autorenduo, das sich Lars Kepler nennt, hier aufgegriffen hat, kann einem schon schwindlig werden: Mord, Affairen, Inzest, Entführung, Jugendgangs, Kindesmisshandlung, Nötigung, Verstümmelung... Vielleicht wäre weniger hier mehr gewesen? Durchaus lesenswert, allerdings zum Teil recht brutal!
