A decorated Vietnam veteran, scholar, and father, Curtis E. Dixon hoped to live a comfortable, fulfilling life in his hometown of Winston-Salem, North Carolina. For nineteen years, he performed managerial and operational duties within and outside his area of expertise in an outstanding manner with the City. But false and degrading comments from Deputy City Manager John P. Bond changed his career forever. Dishonor Everywhere, But Who Cares? is the frightening true story of how one man's honor and reputation was systematically destroyed through the spiteful actions of a select group of individuals. In a tangled mixture of discrimination, racism, and office politics, Dixon filed a grievance against his employer. Reeling from daily harassment that affected his health, Dixon had no recourse but to file a lawsuit against the city. When the case went to trial in 1984, Dixon was confident the truth would be revealed. Unfortunately, the media refused to cover the Dixon trials, and deals were made outside of the courtroom that negatively affected the outcome. Dixon's case was eventually dismissed by all levels of the federal and state judicial systems except the state appeals court level. After the above, City Manager Stuart terminated Dixon's employment with the city in 1989, citing the same types of false reasons that were used throughout his court proceedings. Dishonor Everywhere, But Who Cares? tells Dixon's side of the story, warts and all, and Reveals a corrupt web of betrayal from elected officials and a large cast of Dixon's neighbors, co-workers and fellow citizens. Dixon's candor reveals a determination to set the record straight and to finally let the truth speak for itself.

In the England of Jane Austen, Charlotte Lucas, unhappy with her loquacious and overbearing husband, draws on her wit and daring to tackle the unexpected problems besetting her marriage. Charlotte Lucas, a character first appearing in Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, has made an unfortunate marriage to the loquacious William Collins, reckoning that his tedious conversation is a small price to pay for the prosperous home and family she hopes to gain. However, trouble brews within the first months of marriage, and she is upset and angered by his presumptuous tendency to interfere with her friendships. To ease the strain of their relationship, Charlotte leaves her husband to visit the fashionable city of Bath with several women companions. The weeks in Bath prove to be a time for self-discovery and freedom, even license. Although the marital frost between Charlotte and William begins to thaw, that tranquility lasts only briefly, for events in Bath have resulted in an unfortunate, even calamitous, consequence. Charlotte devises a solution to the advantage of all that combines bold connivance and compassionate duplicity. Some would castigate her audacious stratagem, but she believes it justified by the hope of happiness and the wit and courage to seek it. The perfect book club recommendation! --Charlotte’s Story adopts Jane Austen’s style of writing, updated for a contemporary audience --Amplifies some of the minor characters of Pride and Prejudice and develops their own stories --Occasionally dips into Austen’s text to indicate where the plot of Charlotte’s Story intersects with Pride and Prejudice; such sentences are indicated with shaded text. --Explores the problems of courtship and marriage that women of rural middle class in England faced, and ruminates on the persistence of similar issues facing us today. There are a number of ‘sequels’ to Pride and Prejudice on the market, of which the most well-known is probably P.D. James’ mystery, Death Comes to Pemberley. Charlotte’s Story is more of a parallel plot that dips in and out of the events from Austen’s originating novel. In Charlotte's Story, Carolyn Korsmeye explores Charlotte’s clear-sighted realism in contrast to the romance that is so frequently the focus of interest in Austen’s characters.

https://vidjambov.blogspot.com/2023/01/book-inventory-vladimir-djambov-talmach.html Before you read on let me be absolved for this my poor effort – not being a monk, not having any special blessing, simply hoping that Orthodox people better than me shall read and understand this... /// Vladimir Djambov /// The fruit of prayer is to enlighten the mind and tenderness of the heart, to revitalize the soul with the life of the Spirit; thorns and thistles - this is the deadness of the soul, the pharisaic conceit, vegetating from heart hardening, content and exalted with the number of prayers and the time used to pronounce these prayers. /// The attention that fully observes prayer from entertainment or from extraneous thoughts and dreams is a gift of God's grace. We prove our sincere desire to receive a blessed gift, the soul-saving gift of attention by forcing ourselves to pay attention at every prayer of ours. /// Nature, renewed by the Holy Spirit, is governed by completely different laws than nature, fallen and stagnant in its fall. /// Woeful self-delusion! Mental blinding. Self-delusion is based here on conceit, and conceit is damage to the mental eye, born from wrong activities and giving rise to even more wrong activities. Beloved brother, the calmness by which you assure yourself of the fidelity of your path is nothing more than an conscienceless and lack of feeling of your sinfulness, which came and proceeds from a negligent life, and the joy that at times is born in you because of external success and human praise is by no means spiritual and holy joy: it is the fruit of conceit, self-righteousness and vanity A comment from the US: This Book "The Arena" by Bishop Ignatius Brianchaninov was originally called "An Offering to Contemporary Monasticism" & was published in 1867. ... Bishop Ignatius Brianchaninov was born as Dimitri Alexandrovich Brianchaninov in 1807 & studied at the Pioneer Military School of St. Petersburg. After he passed his examinations he fell sick & was discharge from the army. When he recovered he became a novice under the Starets Leonid of Optina Monastery. In 1831 he took his vows as a monk, later became the Abbott of St. Sergius Monastery, & in 1857 became a Bishop. After 4 years as Bishop he retired in seclusion & died in 1867. ... This is not a book for the beginner Christian Mystic & may be a tough read for most American Evangelical Christians. This is NOT a book about JUST reading your Bible & turning your life over to Jesus Christ. Yes, this book contains these primary & necessary concepts of Salvation but moves on to how to carry your cross, obey Spiritual Elders, develop Silence, to guard one's thought, the Jesus Prayer, Divine Mediation, how to battle Spiritual Evil, Virtues & Vices, Repentance & Mourning, the topics are rather vast... The book comes in two parts. Part 2 is called [Advice on Monastic Soul Work] "Councils For The Spiritual Life Of Monks" & part 1 is called [Rules for External Conduct for Neophyte Monks] "Rules Of Outward Conduct For Novices". As you can see part 2 (One) with 247 pages will have more to do with understanding spiritual reality & how to live a Holy Life while part 1 (Two) with 43 rules in 14 pages is strictly for Monks living in a Monastery. Get Ready for a Paradigm shift by reading this book. Keep your general life in focus because the book was written for monks & you will have to make adaptions because you live in the world. What I learned mostly is "What you don't Repent of, your going to Take with you." which is rather a scary thought.
