On Edge

By: Apollo Perez

As we understand it, there has always been lights in the dark skies! People have witnessed Ships that appear and then Dart away then reappear moments later! Others say they have seen Beings from another World! Others say they have been abducted and still others say they have been taken and examined then released! The general public believes there is something to these stories and still others disregard the sightings and say there are explanations to them and questionable individuals. An eccentric preventive maintenance mechanic that fits in these category had wondered just what he would do if he would ever see such a thing! He had an extraordinary imaginative mind and understood the concepts of the computer world! He had Great Imagination and The thought of “What If” had always got him in trouble! Such a Ship Did come from the Heavens and used their scans on the surface to probe for such a mind in an individual for an experiment! Highly Advanced Beings from another Planet had been expanding for years! Traveling vast distances to many Planets and systems and have been in contact with other forms of life everywhere they go. In all their studies they have always been pushed around and sometimes had difficulties finishing their studies! With their Highly Advanced Technological wisdom, they eventually outgrew their basic body needs. An idea came to one of their Leaders! To scan and approach a physically fit and mentally capable Being Humanoid for use as their Body Guard! They would have to persuade and not abduct, to have him come willingly! This was important so he would be willing to accept this new way of life and help them in any situation! As things were happening as usual, there were complications and he was asked to learn more than they had expected. He was exposed to Unlimited Available Knowledge and something happened! As he pushed his capabilities to Beyond Comprehension, The Beings started seeing him as a Special Person and others thought of him as, The Coming of the Chosen One! Stories started swirling around the Society as the coming of such a Person from an Unknown Planet! As he hears of such stories and the way they see him, he starts to act like this Special Person and then he pushes it but believes he will soon be found as a fake and returned or worse, left abandoned in some unknown Planet! Surely Always On Edge!

Protection, Patronage, or Plunder? British Machinations and (B)uganda’s Struggle for Independence

By: Apollo N. Makubuya

In the scramble for Africa, Britain took a lion’s share of the continent. It occupied and controlled vast territories, including the Uganda Protectorate – which it ruled for 68 years. Early administrators in the region encountered the progressive kingdom of Buganda, which they incorporated into the British Empire. Under the guise of protection, indirect rule and patronage, Britain overran, plundered and disempowered the kingdom’s traditional institutions. On liquidation of the Empire, Buganda was coaxed into a problematic political order largely dictated from London. Today, 56 years after independence, the kingdom struggles to rediscover itself within Uganda’s fragile politics. Based on newly de-classified records, this book reconstructs a history of the machinations underpinning British imperial interests in (B)Uganda and the personalities who embodied colonial rule. It addresses Anglo-Uganda relations, demonstrating how Uganda’s politics reflects its colonial past, and the forces shaping its future. It is a far-reaching examination of British rule in (B)uganda, questioning whether it was designed for protection, for patronage or for plunder.

The Chakra Journey

In our book, The Chakra Journey, we journey through the seven chakras -- the energy centers associated with our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. Each chapter includes a description of the chakra, along with moving personal accounts. As the authors, we celebrate the pain and joy of our journeys. By extending these emotions to paper, we hope you will connect with us and say, "I can see myself." The Chakra Journey is a non-fictional collection of fifteen author's stories. Some of the personal experiences include overcoming eating disorders, molestation, abortion, abuse, infidelity, degenerative disease, anxiety. The driving force behind this book is to forgive and heal the things we've condemned about ourselves and others by sharing our journeys of transformation. In our sharing, we find more love and acceptance for ourselves and the world around us. We hope to offer others a safe place to bare their souls and in turn, help contribute to a more loving, accepting, and tolerant world.

God's Solution To Man's Problems

By: Apollo Kikule

God's Solution To Man's Problems

St. Paul's Epistle To The Romans

By: Apollo Kikule

Death is real for all of us. Just as faith and resurrection must be the reality and goal for true believers and not the fleeting things of the world. The Sanhendrists (the church leaders of the day) in their religiosity crucified their own Saviour, in like manner, the Christianity of our day has traded God's glory for the vain things of earth. All this has happened because man has not comprehended God's Word due to: a) Breaking up Scripture into individual choicest verses unto which men exercise their intellectual abilities; b) thus losing the spiritual meaning and sequence of each Chapter c) resulting into the act of rationalizing on every verse thus allowing individual preachers to curve out individual territorial ground for the followers of the same taste, instead of the One Church of God with each member filled with God's gift of the Spirit. Here in the Epistle to the Romans we find God's solution to man's rebellious ways. The spiritual content of the epistle is presented instead of the rationalistic approach of our day with its deceit and hypocrisy.

Maybe a mojito—a real one, like they serve at La Bodeguita del Medio in Havana—is all you need to summon the mesmerizing power of Hemingway's prose. Writer’s block? Summon the brilliant musings of Truman Capote with a screwdriver—or, “my orange drink,” as he called it—or a magical world like J.K. Rowling’s with a perfect gin and tonic.

Working with Assumptions in International Development Program Evaluation

With a Foreword by Michael Bamberger

By: Apollo M. Nkwake

This book discusses the crucial place that assumptions hold in conceptualizing, implementing, and evaluating development programs. It suggests simple ways for stakeholders and evaluators to 1) examine their assumptions about program theory and environmental conditions and 2) develop and carry out effective program monitoring and evaluation in light of those assumptions. A survey of evaluators from an international development agency reviewed the state of practice on assumptions-aware evaluation. This 2nd edition has been updated with further illustrations, case studies, and frameworks that have been researched and tested in the years since the first edition. Regardless of geography or goal, development programs and policies are fueled by a complex network of implicit ideas. Stakeholders may hold assumptions about purposes, outcomes, methodology, and the value of project evaluation and evaluators—which may or may not be shared by the evaluators. A major barrier to viable program evaluations is that development programs are based on assumptions that often are not well articulated. In designing programs, stakeholders often lack clear outlines for how implemented interventions will bring desired changes. This lack of clarity masks critical risks to program success and makes it challenging to evaluate such programs. Methods that have attempted to address this dilemma have been popularized as theory of change or other theory‐based approaches. Often, however, theory-based methods do not sufficiently clarify how program managers or evaluators should work with the assumptions inherent in the connections between the steps. The critical examination of assumptions in evaluation is essential for effective evaluations and evaluative thinking. "How does one think evaluatively? It all begins with assumptions. Systematically articulating, examining, and testing assumptions is the foundation of evaluative thinking... This book, more than any other, explains how to build a strong foundation for effective interventions and useful evaluation by rigorously working with assumptions." —Michael Quinn Patton, PhD. Author of Utilization-Focused Evaluation and co-editor of THOUGHTWORK: Thinking, Action, and the Fate of the World, USA. "This updated edition presents us with a new opportunity to delve into both the theoretical and practical aspects of paradigmatic, prescriptive, and causal assumptions. We need to learn, and apply these insights with the deep attention they deserve." —Zenda Ofir, PhD. Independent Evaluator, Richard von Weizsäcker Fellow, Robert Bosch Academy, Berlin, Germany. Honorary Professor, School of Public Leadership, Stellenbosch University, South Africa. “This thought-provoking book explains why assumptions are an essential condition within the theories and methodologies of evaluation; and how assumptions influence the ways that evaluators approach their work...It will enrich the ways that evaluators develop their models, devise their methodologies, interpret their data, and interact with their stakeholders.” —Jonny Morell, Ph.D., President, 4.669...

Blue Heart, Red Blood

By: Apollo Alehc Sore

Blue Heart, Red Blood is a poetic exposition of one man's road to finding true freedom and happiness. It's thoughtful, revolutionary, and as personal as a man can objectify. An autodidactic poet, Apollo Alehc Soré's poems are aggressive and bold and beautifully breaks what he perceives to be constricting rules of formation, rhyme schemes, and subject matter of "scholastic" poetry. This book was written for human-to-human relatability, so the author can feel less alone in the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that have shaped him into who he is today, as he feels that someone somewhere can relate. From the dregs of society, his voice and his poetry are universal and loud.

Credibility, Validity, and Assumptions in Program Evaluation Methodology

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Credibility, Validity, and Assumptions in Program Evaluation Methodology

By: Apollo M. Nkwake

This book focuses on methods of choice in program evaluation. Credible methods choice lies in the assumptions we make about the appropriateness and validity of selected methods and the validity of those assumptions. As evaluators make methodological decisions in various stages of the evaluation process, a number of validity questions arise. Yet unexamined assumptions are a risk to useful evaluation. The first edition of this book discussed the formulation of credible methodological arguments and methods of examining validity assumptions. However, previous publications suggest advantages and disadvantages of using various methods and when to use them. Instead, this book analyzes assumptions underlying actual methodological choices in evaluation studies and how these influence evaluation quality. This analysis is the basis of suggested tools. The second edition extends the review of methodological assumptions to the evaluation of humanitarian assistance. While evaluators of humanitarian action apply conventional research methods and standards, they have to adapt these methods to the challenges and constraints of crisis contexts. For example, the urgency and chaos of humanitarian emergencies makes it hard to obtain program documentation; objectives may be unclear, and early plans may quickly become outdated as the context changes or is clarified. The lack of up-to-date baseline data is not uncommon. Neither is staff turnover. Differences in perspective may intensify and undermine trust. The deviation from ideal circumstances challenges evaluation and calls for methodological innovation. And how do evaluators work with assumptions in non-ideal settings? What tools are most relevant and effective? This revised edition reviews major evaluations of humanitarian action and discusses strategies for working with evaluation assumptions in crises and stable program settings.

Changing Gender Roles?

A Study on Fathers' Involvement in Childcare

By: Apollo M. Nkwake

Men wear the pants, work, and bring home the bacon. Women clean, cook, and take care of the kids. Are these stereotypes set in stone from the creation of man, or crafted from culture? Can a working father plan a larger role in the childcare of his children, or is it pre-determinedly a mother's business? Apollo Nkwake has spent a significant amount of time researching the differences between man and woman, and the respective roles they play in society. To find out, Nkwake conducted a study in rural and urban Uganda of working fathers with employed spouses. What Nkwake found may be surprising. ? Does the amount of money a dad makes influence his childcare abilities or the acceptance of his higher role in the care of his children? ? Does their place of home impact the role he plays? ? What about the opinions and judgements of neighbors? Nkwake proposes that the culture surrounding a family has a higher impact on the family dynamics than the parents' opinions themselves. But with this in mind, how do we fix it? How can fathers play a larger role in the child rearing of their children, while breaking the bonds of societal norms? Nkwake suggests in Changing Gender Roles that it will take all of the community to educate themselves, smarten up to male-female differences, and change this preconceived notion that fathers do not rear their children. Raising a child may be women's work, but it doesn't have to be.

Social Problems in Africa

New Visions

By: Apollo Rwomire

Despite the recent growth of research on social problems facing the people of sub-Saharan Africa, there remains a critical lack of conceptual, epistemological, and empirical research and documentation. This sophisticated new book attempts to fill that gap by synthesizing, interpreting, and extending the existing literature on conditions that constitute serious impediments to socio-economic development in Africa. It provides an original and up-to-date survey of key problems ranging from poverty and inequality to violence and crime. The contributors, all of whom have lived or worked in Africa, show how social problems emerge, how they are defined, and how various actors attempt to deal with them. This timely book provides a much needed analysis of the major issues and debates regarding the dynamics of social problems in the African context. Social Problems in Africa is broken into four parts. The first introduces readers to the nature of social problems in general and provides a framework for analyzing and understanding social problems in an African context. Part II, on culture, human rights and democracy, examines these crucial aspects of social problems in Africa, as well as issues such as language and colonialism. Part III focuses on poverty and inequality, while conflict and violence is the focus of Part IV. Together, the chapters in this volume provide the most comprehensive and systematic approach to the issues available, bringing much-needed attention to the problems in Africa from the perspective of scholars who have lived and worked there.

Concrete Candy

Stories

By: Apollo

Six incendiary stories that reflect the rage and frustration -- and the determination to survive -- of America's disenfranchised inner-city youth Concrete Candy marks the debut of an astonishing new writer -- notable both for the authenticity and immediacy of his voice and for his age: fifteen. Three years ago, Apollo, a child of the inner city and a protege of the acclaimed novelist Jess Mowry, began writing stories that reflect the tension, drama, and pathos of the urban reality he has lived and witnessed. The result is this collection of six powerful, haunting tales of boys dangerously adrift in the 'hood.

Mountaineering Tourism

A Critical Perspective

By: Michal Apollo,Yana Wengel

This book offers a critical account of the historical evolution of mountaineering and its relation to the phenomenon of tourism, providing an overview of recent developments linked to the diversification, commodification and commercialisation of mountaineering activity. Mountaineering, broadly defined as hiking, trekking and climbing, is now a mass phenomenon, with continually growing numbers of trekkers, climbers and religious tourists hiking in mountain regions. Increasing visitor numbers require the current policies to be updated. The environments around high-mountain areas and their local resident communities, until recently cut off from civilisation, are sensitive to outside influences and have been abruptly exposed to the impact of mountaineering and related activities. This is the first book to disentangle overlapping terms and definitions related to mountaineering tourism. It identifies the key terms and turning points in mountaineering tourism and discusses the impacts of mountaineering tourism from an environmental, socio-cultural and personal perspective and identifies current tourism management policies. Finally, this book provides a continuum between the past and future of mountaineering tourism and aims to provide policy suggestions for sustainable management of fragile mountain regions. This will be of great interest to upper-level students and academics of tourism, as well as industry representatives and policymakers with an interest in adventure tourism and mountaineering.
