Book Description
Jeremy Vine is one of the most successful broadcasters of recent years and in 2012 clocks up a quarter of a century at the BBC. In It's All News to Me, he takes a look back over his career from the very first day when he arrived at broadcasting house, (by coincidence an inauspicious news day - the fateful Black Monday of 1987.) Jeremy explains his big break as a Today programme reporter when he was fired at by a sniper during the early days of the war in Bosnia; he walks us through the corridors of Westminster in the 1990s when he was a political correspondent, trying to deal with the likes of Alastair Campbell and Peter Mandelson; he reflects on the steep learning curve that was his posting as African correspondent at the turn of the millennium; and his return to the UK where he was dubbed Paxman's "mini-me" on Newsnight. He also explains what it's like presenting Radio 2's lunchtime show and talking to 6 million listeners - people who, as he puts it "have better stories than we do." Written in Jeremy's unmistakably lively and self-deprecating voice, It's All News to Mepaints a vivid picture of what it's like to be trapped inside the BBC - arguably the most interesting organisation in the country - for 25 years. It's also about our obsession with news - just exactly how and why it happens - and the power of real life stories versus the media's desire to shape them.

Book Description
Dashed dreams: she wanted to run for president one day, now she's dead at 20 When Riley Hunt—a beautiful, smart, popular student at Easton College in Manhattan—is brutally murdered, it becomes a big story for TV newswoman Clare Carlson. After days of intense media coverage, a suspect is caught: a troubled Afghanistan war veteran with a history of violent and unstable behavior. The suspect's mother, however, comes to Clare with new evidence that might prove her son's innocence. As Clare digs deeper into the puzzling case, she learns new information: Riley had complained about being stalked in the days before her murder, she was romantically involved with two different men—the son of a top police official and the son of a prominent underworld boss—and she had posted her picture on an escort service's website offering paid dates with wealthy men. Soon, Clare becomes convinced that Riley Hunt's death is more than just a simple murder case—and that more lives, including her own, are now in danger until she uncovers the true story. It's News to Me is perfect for fans of J. D. Robb and Karin Slaughter While all of the novels in the Clare Carlson Mystery series stand on their own and can be read in any order, the publication sequence is: Yesterday's News Below the Fold The Last Scoop Beyond the Headlines It's News to Me Broadcast Blues (coming 2024)

Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
All too often, many people find traditional worship dull and the sermons they hear impractical for living in today's world. Yet Linda McCoy is convinced that the message of God's unconditional love is the most vital word for life anyone can receive -- especially those who have never heard or truly experienced it. Her inspiring sermons share that message of hope with modern Americans by bridging the gap between the sacred and the secular. As the fruit of her non-traditional ministry directed toward those who have never been part of a church or who have been "turned off" or "disenfranchised" by the established church, McCoy's short, to-the-point messages effectively and relevantly communicate the good news to anyone who is searching for an experience of the Divine. Readers of these sermons will be connected to a deep sense of purpose and enriched by God's amazing love and grace. Sermon titles include: - Prepare For Arrival (Matthew 3:1-12) - The Power Of A Dream (Matthew 2:13-23) - Positive Identification (John 1:29-42) - Building Bridges (Matthew 5:21-37) - It's A Mystery (Matthew 17:1-9) Linda Schiphorst McCoy has been the pastor of The Garden (a Blossom of St. Luke's United Methodist Church) in Indianapolis since 1995, and from 1982-1995 served as associate pastor at St. Luke's. McCoy earned degrees in French (B.A.) and Education (M.S.) from Indiana University, and received her theological training from Christian Theological Seminary in Indianapolis (M.Div.) and United Theological Seminary in Dayton, Ohio (D.Min.).
