Have you ever gazed deeply into your navel and contemplated: an emergency physician as an alleged mass murderer; pus; a flatulating mammoth; Mark's tribulations getting his Gospel published; athlete's foot as history's first public health crisis; the genitalia of Michelangelo's David; Churchill, DeGaulle, and FDR relaxing at iconic Rick's Café Américain; a wayward pelican interrupting a Yankee-Red Sox game; telepathic tortoises and pedicuring piranhas; Cagney, Bogie, and Edward G. Robinson rescuing us from life's current perfidies? These are but samples of the ironical, cynical, and metaphorical black humor contained in this tome. It's a glimpse through the diaphanous layers of the author's imagination. It's an imagination of another time from another place. It's an imagination that has been carefully molded by varying aliquots of Big Apple naiveté, emergency medical mayhem, madness & mirth, and a persistent fatalistic optimism.
In a college room at Cambridge University in 1920 twenty four young men, who had heard Gods call to the mission field, knew they wanted to keep in touch after they had gone their separate, God-appointed ways. They had formed a close bond during the previous years at Cambridge as they prayed together, studied their Bibles together and shared their faith in Jesus Christ with fellow students, calling themselves the Cambridge University Missionary Band (C.U.M.B.).

Although not at the inaugural meeting because he was already...

Mention “American Indian,” and the first image that comes to most people’s minds is likely to be a figment of the American mass media: A war-bonneted chief. The Land O’ Lakes maiden. Most American Indians in the twenty-first century live in urban areas, so why do the mass media still rely on Indian imagery stuck in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries? How can more accurate views of contemporary Indian cultures replace such stereotypes? These and similar questions ground the essays collected in American Indians and the Mass Media, which explores Native experience and the mainstream media’s impact on American Indian histories, cultures, and communities. Chronicling milestones in ...
This is a story about a young Roman Catholic priest who has been transferred out of his familiar New York routine to Stellarton, the town where he was born, where his sister Patty and his brother Tim still live. Coming back to his childhood parish, to the Stella Maris church, should have been a joyous homecoming. For more than a century, this beloved stone structure has guarded the entrance to the harbor, a beacon as familiar as the lighthouse to the fishermen of the North Atlantic, and Father Jim Cameron will take its stewardship seriously. He will see fewer familiar faces attending his Masses at Stella Maris, and his liturgy will echo amid empty pews. He will be challenged by Lieutenant Mark Campbell, a Vietnam veteran, at the Rehabilitation Hospital where his high school crush, Peggy, is now a nurse. But he has moved beyond all that, hasnt he?
