Poor white trash book6/28/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() The distortions were caused by the attitudes of the governing class in Britain and in the colonies towards the poor. Yet it was the British class structure seen through a distorting mirror. In the 200-odd years before the American Revolution, the British set up a class structure in their colonies that was based on the class structure back home. The USA inherited a class structure from the earliest British colonisers. The British class system through a distorting mirror But it isn’t, and this book clearly demonstrates it never has been. The USA lays claim to being the land of opportunity where “all men are created equal”. It is a very well written, very well researched account of class – or at any rate one class – in America. (Though there was a five-day break in the middle when Mrs SC and I were in back in Brussels.) White Trash: The 400-Year Untold History of Class in America by Nancy Isenberg (Penguin, 2017) ![]()

Al franken giant of the senate6/28/2023 ![]() ![]() Senate is, without a doubt, the best job I’ve ever had. ![]() Nothing could be more fun.That said, I’ve always told people that representing my home state of Minnesota in the U.S. An Optimist’s Guide to PoliticsIn the eight years since I came to Washington, probably the question I’ve been asked more than any other is some version of this: “Is being a United States senator as much fun as working on Saturday Night Live?”The answer has always been NO!!! Why would it be?When people ask me my favorite moment from my fifteen seasons at SNL, I always tell them it’s all the late Tuesday nights or very early Wednesday mornings when the show got written on the seventeenth floor of 30 Rock, when I was rolling on the floor laughing at a line that Dan Aykroyd or Gilda Radner or my partner Tom Davis just came up with or a character that Dana Carvey or Chris Farley just invented. ![]()

Jonathan Coe 'One of the richest and most rewarding works of fiction of recent times.' The Times Literary Supplement 'What Barker does in The Regeneration Trilogy is explore with gritty realism - and absolute clarity of vision - the whole dirty, glorious and horrifying business of war.'

Through gates of splendour6/27/2023 ![]() ![]() The author writes candidly about the events leading up to the dangerous “Operation Auca” which (spoiler alert, in case you don’t know already) leads to the death of her own husband and his missionary companions. One cannot help but become impassioned at such an inspiring narrative. It is a page-turner, guaranteed to stoke a missions zeal where a fledgling flame already exists or even kindle a bonfire where missional passion is completely devoid. This is not your typical Christian feel-good, self-help-type of a book. I suggest it should be required reading for every new disciple, church-goer, leader, pastor, and cross-cultural missions worker. This book is a classic Christian missionary tale of self-sacrifice, horrific tragedy, unparalleled forgiveness, and divine redemption. ![]() ![]() (Note: This post contains affiliate links, which means that the ministry of Within Reach Global will receive 4.50% of your total purchase from Amazon.)

Nobody's Angel by Kallypso Masters6/27/2023 ![]() According to Laura Harrell of the Orlando Sentinel, the group members wrote the lyrics and choreographed their dances without assistance. Andrew Logan was the executive producer of the album, which was recorded at A&M Studios and Cardraygee Studios in Hollywood, California. They also recorded a cover of " Let's Get Together" for the 1998 film The Parent Trap, which was a remake of the 1961 original. Prior to their debut album, they appeared on the television sitcom Boy Meets World and the 2000 television film Model Behavior. They were one of several new acts signed by Hollywood Records. The group's name was inspired by Harper's love of the television drama Charlie's Angels. They decided to form a girl group because of their shared backgrounds in music. Nobody's Angel members Amy Sue Harding, Sarah Smith, Stacey Harper, and Ali Navarro first met while sharing their stories about unsuccessful auditions in Los Angeles. Reviews were primarily positive, although some critics labeled the group a guilty pleasure based on the album. The lead single peaked at number 39 on the Dance Club Songs Billboard chart, and the album reached number 184 on the Billboard 200 chart. ![]() ![]() This pop album was promoted by two singles: "If You Wanna Dance" and "I Just Can't Help Myself". ![]() It was released on February 1, 2000, through Hollywood Records.
