Lambright mention that this Glenville High School alumnus studied at Tennessee’s Meharry Medical College, was one of the co-founders of Glenville’s Forest City Hospital (1957)-where he became Chief of Surgery that he served as president of the Metropolitan General Hospital Medical Staff, and was a member of the Board of Trustees of Cleveland State University and President of the local affiliate of the American Medical Association in the 1960s. ![]() ![]() I am convinced that the story of Cleveland’s Dr. In recognition of the fact that April is National Minority Health Month, and in light of recent reports of the disproportionately high morbidity and mortality rates among African Americans during the COVID-19 global pandemic, I invite readers to join me in examining the role of African American physicians in the history of the healthcare profession. ![]() Cleveland Memory Project Photograph, Cleveland State University.) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I think it needs to be said up front that there was hardly an association with AIW, it was more of an inspiration for this story. A blink, a breath, a second, and everything I knew and loved was gone. Truth be told, I didn’t care for AIW as a child, but I still find it fascinating when an author chooses to re-vamp an old fairy tale (was that really a fairy tale? It was so creepy) so I chose to give this one a go on the recommendation of my brilliant British friend :P. I didn’t need the Alice In Wonderland references to be obvious or even close to the original telling. Well, there was a lot of good in this story….and there was also some bad. ![]() Alice in Zombieland ( The White Rabbit Chronicles #1) ![]() ![]() Wild at Heart is split into three sections, called "movements." The first argues that every aspect of a man, from his desires to who he is as a man, reflects God. Eldredge frames the book around his outdoor experiences and anecdotes about his family and references elements of pop culture such as the film Braveheart and lyrics from songs.Ĭontents Movement One: Reflecting God and the Masculine Question He urges men to take time out and come to grips with the desires of their hearts. ![]() Men often seek validation in venues such as work, or in the conquest of women, Eldredge observes. He challenges Christian men to return to what he characterizes as authentic masculinity without resorting to a "macho man" mentality. ![]() ![]() From the back cover: "In Wild at Heart, John Eldredge invites men to recover their masculine heart, defined in the image of a passionate God."Įldredge claims that men are bored they fear risk, they refuse to pay attention to their deepest desires.

Seventeen-year-old Cassie Hobbes has a gift for profiling people. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It feels kind of artsy and weird, but I did really like reading and learning about sexism in this country. It's an odd mix and I wasn't expecting it, so it took a little while to get used to.Īlthough we do get to meet several characters, it's clear that the focus on this book is its themes and the characters are just there to present them to you. This is the kind of book that is a fictional novel, but clearly very heavily bases itself on actual life, so much so that the book has footnotes with references, referring to studies and reports done on the life of women in South Korea. This was a very interesting book to read! It's quite a short book but it manages to convey a lot in only a few pages, which I like. ![]() ![]() ![]() An up-and-coming singer from Texas named George Jones once opened from them. Their colorful stage suits were the inspiration for Elvis’s stage wear. The Maddox Brothers and Rose were quite literally there as hillbilly music, rockabilly, and rock and roll were formed, and when they ultimately split into separate genres, with the band influencing all three in very significant ways. Don Maddox of The Maddox Brothers & Rose has died at the age of 98. But his time as one of the last living links to the very formation of country music has officially ended. And he will remain a legend, today and forevermore.

Ian Taylor’s character did EVERYTHING that I expected him to do. ![]() I personally found it hard to relate to any of the characters in the story, although to be fair, as Grace began to experience her sexuality for the first time I remember having some of the exact same thoughts she did about what was clean and what was dirty, and what kind of person I was for enjoying them. I want to rate this story 3.5 stars and here’s why. When it started off with the somewhat cliche plot line of the cheerleader falling for the rock star I was worried that I would not enjoy the story, but I was somewhat surprised by the turn of events as the book flowed along. The Falling of Love by Marisa Oldham is not at all what I expected it to be. ![]() ![]() “We’re enjoying each and every minute of it. “Why play if you can’t have fun?” he said before Monday’s Game 3 of the Eastern Conference final.

And he’s sure as heck smiling when he’s darting out the door, orchestrating his now-patented “Bus in 10” celebration after scoring overtime winners. He’s smiling during his scrums with reporters. ![]() He’s smiling in the middle of post-whistle scrums, laughing off facewashes and grinning through the cross-checks he gives and takes.
