Doomed Passage: Book Three in the "Passage" Saga

Ian Buchanan was separated from his fiancee, Brittany Cavanaugh, in the icy waters of the North Atlantic when the infamous ocean liner, Titanic, sank. Where she is, he has no idea, but the ancient Haitian amulet that transported the couple from the twentieth century has now chosen to drop him in the year 1692--at the time of the Salem Witch Hunts. Ian meets young, innocent Ariana; a woman who, despite the fact that she's only sixteen years old, stirs Ian's blood. Even more disturbing to the twentieth century man--she's a self-proclaimed witch, who wears the same amulet that he last saw around his beloved Brittany's neck. When the fanatical Puritans decide to hang Ian and Ariana as witches, too, the young woman screams a frantic plea to the goddess Aveena. The couple is then transported through time again, to Fort Sumter at the beginning of the Civil War. The transport begins a tempestuous journey that spans ten years, leaving Ian to feel a sense of obligation to Ariana and her unborn child. Ian looks after them, supports them, and grows to care more than his conscience will allow. Finally, following a single night of unforgettable passion, Ariana admits her love. Ian though, admits to only an overwhelming lust that leaves him with a self-loathing he can no longer abide. Can Ian forget his committment to Brittany? Will he ever see her again? Will fate determine their destinies once again and join the two time-travelers in the end? Or will they be forever left to find their own way and alienate even those who love them most?

Computers: The Early Years: Reflections of an Aging Programmer

Then you look back and think, "Wow ... that was really an exciting time ... I got to experience the birth of something that changed the world." That's pretty much my reaction now, almost fifty years after I saw my first computer. Pocket calculators, Macs, PCs, laptops, smart phones and tablet computers have become a necessity in our society these days. My kids can't really even envision life without those electronic marvels.

Anymore home life largely revolves around our computers. Hard to believe how much has happened in the world of computers since those misty, long-forgotten pre-computer days.Any yet, for me those days don't really seem all that long ago. In fact I can still remember what it was like back in the early years when I first got interested in the world of computers and computer programming ...

Don't Let Evolution Make A Monkey Out Of You

A great battle rages today between Bible believing Christianity and secular humanism. However, this wasn't always the case. There was a time when the people of our country and even the great scientists of the world were Christians. They were God fearing people who recognized the Bible to be the Word of God. They accepted what God said concerning His creation. All of this began to change when Charles Darwin published his book, "The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection." It has been 150 years since Darwin's theory was published and there is still no real scientific evidence for evolution. Yet, it is being peddled by pseudo academia as a "scientific fact" when it is not a fact at all. Even many evolutionary scientists readily admit that they do not have the answers. The truth is that the theory of evolution creates more questions than it answers.

The Nature of Capital and Income

"The Nature of Capital and Income" was regarded by Schumpter as one of three of Fisher's (1906) major contributions "of first-class importance and originality." The other two were Fisher's Mathematical Investigations (1892) and his statistical method for measuring the marginal utility of income (1927). Fisher admitted that he had not appreciated the element of time when he was writing his doctoral thesis (1892), and accordingly he had not understood the importance of distinguishing between capital and income. "Just 'as accountants distinguish sharply between capital accounts or balance sheets relating to a point in time and income accounts relating to a period of time,' Fisher came to realize that the theory of capital and income should be built along similar lines. Fisher's basic concept of capital is simple and comprehensive: Capital embraces all stocks of material objects that yield services that human beings like. Thus Fisher would include: land and other natural resources as well as reproducible goods; objects owned by households and governments as well as by businesses; houses and other consumer durable goods as well as producers' durables; objects whose yields are always in kind, like houses occupied by their owners, as well as those whose yields are marketed for cash; the bodies of human beings -- perhaps their minds too -- as well as nonhuman objects. Contemporaries schooled in the classical trilogy of "land, labor, capital" found Fisher's comprehensive view hard to take. The Concept of Income: Fisher's "nature of capital" was controversial at the time, but it is much less so now. His "nature of income" -- defined as consumption -- was even more controversial then, and it remains controversial to this day. The Rate of Interest, published the following year, deserves Samuelson's judgment as the greater of the two books. Most important is the idea that the value of an asset is the capitalization of the stream of future services expected to be thrown off by the asset. -- James Tobin (1918-2002), recipient of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics in 1981. The book includes additional content: A commentary adapted/by James Tobin (1991), a review by Thorstein Veblen (1908), and another review by Edwin Bidwell Wilson (1908) of MIT.

Healing With Stones And Crystals

Since humans made the first flint arrow and fire strikers, and possibly long before that, crystals and stones have been seen as a source of wonder and in some cases power. The Egyptian goddess Isis protected the dead with a Carnelian Amulet named Thet. After being soaked in Ankhami flower water, on a Sycamore plinth (a type of tile) and placed on the body of the deceased, Isis would grant the person protection from harm while moving through the afterlife. The stone also appears In Hebrew Mythology; Aaron's breastplate included a Carnelian stone. Buddhists in China and India created amulets inlaid with Carnelian and other semi-precious stones, ascribing to them powers of protection and utilizing them for many rituals. To this day Carnelian is often suggested as a protective stone Citrine was gifted to or carried by traders to protect them in there travels, As well as ensure the trip was profitable one. This too carries over to today where we find citrine often suggested to abundance and wealth. In ancient times the Vikings used Iolite to help in Navigation. A slab of Iolite would be gazed upon to aid direction. This was because Iolite can bear a different hue when viewed at different angles, helping the mariner find north & south. It is also believed to protect for safe journeys. Today Iolite is often recommended as a stone to help one see the path ahead clearly, to promote clarity and aide in changes. Before the age of science and scepticism people knew these pretty colored rocks had a power and uses all of there own. They found application for them in their day-to-day lives for practical and mystical application. In the pages of this book you will be given a large amount of knowledge to allow you to return to the age of magick and practical uses for stones, crystals and minerals.

Life is a series of ongoing decisions. For adults like me, a survivor of child abuse, making wise choices can be a problem. I lived the pain of an abusive childhood, with an alcoholic mentally ill father. It took me a long time, a teenage religious conversion, and a lot of therapy as an adult, to find the tools of wise decision making. It is this painful journey, of 'connecting the dots' of child abuse and bad choices, that I write of in Therapy Poetry: From The Notebook of a Child Abuse Survivor.

Mathematical Notation: A Guide for Engineers and Scientists

Mathematics is a language with a unique vocabulary, written with a dizzying array of often incomprehesnible symbols. If we are unsure of the meaning or usage of a mathematical word, a quick internet search is invaluable. But what are we to do when confronted with some strange mathematical hieroglyph? What does one type into the search bar? This book is the answer! Our goal is to cover mathematical notation commonly used by engineers and scientists---notation a university student is likely to encounter. We make no attempt to teach the mathematics behind these symbols. Rather, our goal is to give reminders of what these symbols mean; from there, we can consult textbooks or resources on the web. The book is organized by mathematical topic, but multiple indices steer the reader to each symbol's explanation. We also show how to produce the symbols in LaTeX and give guidance on their mathematical usage.

“Chris has been my in-camp nutritionist for two-plus years and has worked with me for five training camps in a row. With his help and cooking skills, I’ve been able to train harder and make weight easier. I was instantly amazed with how much food I was able to eat and still lose weight. Many of the recipes in this book are not only healthy, but they also look and taste great!”
— Daniel Jacobs, current IBF world middleweight boxing champion and former WBA world middleweight boxing champion
 
“This book helped me lean up and perform better during training and competition without feeling like I’m on a diet or having cravings. The recipes Chris give you are simple, delicious, and nutritious. It’s an easy-to-follow lifestyle and the results have been amazing for me—and they’ll be tremendous for you.”
— Aung La Nsang, professional MMA fighter and current ONE world middleweight champion and ONE world light heavyweight champion
 
“Chris Algieri is one of the biggest and most fit boxers at his weight class and is a world champion. He makes me confident that not only will I make weight, but I will also perform at my peak performance. He made specific adjustments for my body type and has a great understanding of individual needs. This book will be a great resource for anybody.”
— Dennis Bermudez, retired UFC fighter
 
“Chris has helped me with my diet for my entire 10-year career in mixed martial arts. He has helped with my day-to-day nutrition in and out of fight camps, my weight-cut protocol, and my rehydration program for after weigh-ins, which to me are the most important. Chris doesn’t only tell you what to eat and when to eat it, but he also breaks down how every person’s body is different and reacts to certain foods different and he explains why I should eat certain foods and why eating them at a specific time is so important. Having him on my team absolutely gave me a tremendous advantage over my competition. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my diet.”
— Ryan LaFlare, retired UFC fighter
 
“I’ve been an athlete my entire life, but nutrition has always overwhelmed me. We live in a culture of fad diets. Consumers are taught to believe you need to starve in order to lose weight. As a result, the public, like me, gets overwhelmed and discouraged. We tend to starve ourselves to lose weight, and when we can’t take it anymore, we binge. Chris’s book has made it finally possible for me to break that cycle. I realize eating healthy doesn’t mean I have to be hungry. It doesn’t have to be boring. Not only do I notice a difference in my physical appearance, but the difference in my mood is also amazing. I can think clearer and feel generally happier just by finally finding a way to maintain healthy eating habits. I think this book serves value to not only those competing but also to anyone looking to make positive changes in their health!”
— Sarah Thomas, 2018 New York Golden Gloves winner
 
“Having known Chris and seeing the way he eats for a few years now, I’ve seen with my own eyes the superhuman capabilities it gives someone when they get their nutrition on point. I absolutely love that he’s not only finally sharing a taste of his secret recipes but also a ton of educational content so one can make it relevant to their own lifestyle and delivered using a system that seems very simple to implement.”
— Avril Mathie, professional boxer and Miss Swimsuit USA International 2015

God Power: expanded version

The idea of God as creator of our reality is mystifying. The greatest thinkers of all time, especially Einstein, understood there had to be a source of a reality which is more like an illusion because everything is energy which continues to be diluted through the decaying process. The entire universe is coded with a type of positive to negative reaction which exemplifies social and physical behavior. The new branch of physics is now exploring the dimensional realm of "Singularity", the source of the "Duality" creation. The BIG BANG came from Singularity and the order and cycles of creation follow precise mathematical patterns as the source (God Power) continues to rejuvenate creation fractals. God can be disproved but creation can also be proved. It just happens to be the way it is. The Duality of creation has to be because there was a beginning. Where there's a start, there's a natural decaying process towards the end.

Half Court Amoeba Defense: Match Up Defense

TEN REASONS FOR THE HALF COURT AMOEBA DEFENSE: (1) Some teams do not attack a matchup type defense as well as a man to man defense. (2) Sometimes defensive changes are necessary to change the tempo and momentum of the game for your team. (3) Some teams have difficulty adjusting to defensive change. (4) The matchup defense covers up and defends very well both the inside and the perimeter game. It covers up the three point shooter as well as or better than any other type of zone defense. It also covers up the inside game very well. (5) Less fouls should be committed in a match up. You can play very aggressive without fouling. (6) The match up defense forces the contested shot! This should lower your opponent's field goal percentage. (7) The matchup gives the team with lesser ability a better chance of winning. If your team has more ability it can help you dominate your opponents. (8) The matchup will neutralize speed, size, and quickness. It will also highlight those qualities if you team has any of them. (9) The matchup is a very good transition defense to fast break from. (10) The matchup forces your players to play as hard as they can for as long as they can. It also lends to developing a great team defensive unity. Also, includes the Full Court Amoeba Defensive System.

My Tenure Biennium a memoir

A provincial board of regents is unable to oust a transformational president in a controversy that drew in the state government on two occasions - first the judicial branch and then the governor. In the eighteen months between those interventions, a shroud of fear and uncertainty hung over the campus as the various players scrambled to retain or gain position or legacy. In that setting there unfolded a tenure tale like no other, complete with Machiavellian maneuvers on all four administrative levels.

The case was that of Wayne Bell who, since he had received an early promotion the previous year, expected that his tenure decision would be routine and positive. Instead, he found himself cast in the role of a pawn in that tangle of administrative conflicts. This is the true story of that tenure case, Bell's struggle to understand what was happening, the support that he received from surprising sources, and the curious nature of the role that he was to play in the events.

Prior to the Curris Conflict in 1981, Murray State University had been proceeding on a well trodden path from normal school, to college, to regional university. (See Ken Wolf's review below.)

Excerpts from readers' comments may be found on the covers.

Bhagavadgita

A faithful and readable translation of one of the world's most treasured books. The Bhagavadgita is one of the most widely read spiritual masterpieces of India. It has influenced such diverse figures as Mahatma Gandhi, Henry David Thoreau, Aldous Huxley, and C. G. Jung. It raises universal questions that are as important today as they were thousands of years ago. What is the right way to act in this world, balancing social duty with personal responsibility? Is there an eternal reality behind the ordinary reality of daily life? What is our relationship with the divine? The teaching takes place in a war zone. Arjuna, a great warrior, is troubled by the terrible battle he is about to fight. Krishna, his friend and spiritual guide, consoles him with insights into the nature of duty. This accurate new translation is both clear and direct. Those new to the Bhagavadgita will appreciate its straightforward style. It is also an excellent resource for Sanskrit students, including a word-for-word Sanskrit vocabulary. This translation is the result of over a decade of work blending the skills of world-renowned Sanskritist Ram Karan Sharma with the sensitive insights of Carol Pitts and the Sanskrit editorial skills of Les Morgan. Their collaboration produced a compelling contemporary version without losing the traditional Indian perspective. Dr. Ram Karan Sharma is an esteemed Sanskrit scholar and poet. He is the former President of the International Association of Sanskrit Studies. Carol Pitts has taught the Bhagavadgita for over thirty years. She is the author of Spiritual Freedom in the Brahma Sutras. Editor Les Morgan is the author of Croaking Frogs: A Guide to Sanskrit Metrics and Figures of Speech. This edition includes the Sanskrit text of the Critical Edition both in the original Devanagari and in a romanized transliteration. Issued as Volume One of a two-volume companion set. Volume Two, which is sold separately, is titled A Study Guide to the Bhagavadgita: With a Practical Concordance, planned for publication in 2016.

CFD Applications in Energy and Environment Sectors

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is the science of predicting fluid flow, heat transfer, mass transfer, phase change, chemical reaction, mechanical movement, stress or deformation of related solid structures, and related phenomena by solving the mathematical equations that govern these processes using a numerical algorithm on a computer. The results of CFD analyses are relevant in: conceptual studies of new designs, detailed product development, troubleshooting, and redesign. CFD analysis complements testing and experimentation, by reduces the total effort required in the experiment design and data acquisition. Advanced science and engineering, in many disciplines and across many industries, are driving the search for new sources of energy, more efficient products and processes, sustainability, and green engineering to meet demand and answer environmental concerns for generations to come. CFD models help us to optimize design and engineering concepts for energy-saving and energy-efficient technologies as well as for energy production. Environment modelling with computational fluid dynamics methods help us tackle our environmental flow problems in the most efficient and cost-effective way. The added insight and understanding gained from environment modelling gives us confidence in our design proposals, avoiding the added costs of over-sizing and over-specification, while reducing risk. CFD models are very useful in environmental assessments because measurements cannot be taken at all times and in all places with the intensity and focus needed to assess all environmental conditions. CFD models are thus needed to "fill in the gaps" as well as to extend the measurement data to characterize and evaluate an environmental problem or study. CFD models provide a means for representing a real system in an understandable way. They take many forms, beginning with "conceptual models" that explain the way a system works. Conceptual models help to identify the major influences on where a chemical is likely to be found in the environment, and as such, need to be developed to help target sources of data needed to assess an environmental problem. In many cases, we can build and analyze virtual models at a fraction of the time and cost of physical modelling. This allows us to investigate more options and "what if" scenarios than ever before. Moreover, flow modelling provides insights into our fluid flow problems that would be too costly or simply prohibitive by experimental techniques alone. Application of CFD techniques to real-world industrial and environmental problems has increased sharply in the last decade. With the rapid development of modern computational techniques and numerical solution methodologies over the last few decades, CFD has now been widely used in various industrial applications for investigating a vast range of industrial and environmental problems. The chapters in this book present new leading-edge research in the field. We thank the work and commitment of all of the authors who submitted chapters according to our requests and dealt with our numerous comments.

Disengaged Parents Hampering a more Effective U.S. Education System

A key reason behind the failure of numerous education reform initiatives are parents. Irresponsible parents who willingly outsource their parenting responsibilities are a major challenge preventing many students from realizing academic proficiency. These parents usually lack motivation and self-discipline, and neglect the value of education, traits which are typically passed on to their children. Until policy makers and stakeholders create and implement initiatives to secure parental engagement in education, education reforms will consistently meet with failure. As the 21st century continues to unfold, giving birth to an era defined by knowledge, where knowledge workers are the resources necessary for creating and sustaining a competitive advantage, the time is now to get parents involved in their children's education.

The Campfire Cookbook: 80 Imaginative Recipes for Cooking Outdoors

Cooking outdoors can be magical, so break out of the kitchen, light your fire, and enjoy delicious recipes you can rustle up when camping, dining al fresco, enjoying some beachside living, or having an off-the-grid adventure.

Chef Nico Stanitzok and lifelong camper Viola Lex have teamed up to create more than 80 sweet and savory camping recipes. Alongside traditional campfire favorites such as BBQ chicken, grilled corn on the cob, and kebab skewers, you'll find recipes for breads, grilled Camembert, pancakes, and even chocolate cakes baked inside oranges. The eclectic mix of recipes will satisfy the more adventurous outdoor cook, while the step-by-step instructions and mouthwatering photography make the recipes easy to follow and suitable for those new to outdoor cooking.

Each recipe has a symbol that tells you which is the best way to cook the dish, be it an open fire, grill, or camping stove. Cook up glorious feasts regardless of whether you're at a festival, in an RV on the open road, wilderness or primitive camping out on the trail, "glamping," or simply campfire cooking on a picnic at the beach. As well as outdoor cooking hacks and tips, you'll find checklists of camping essentials and basic recipes for camping must-haves such as BBQ sauce, ketchup, and dukkah, and even a fun questionnaire to help you decide what kind of camper you are.

O LIVRO DOS ANIMAIS: PARA AS CRIANCAS APRENDEREM SE DIVERTINDO COM OS SEUS PAIS Quais sao os quatro momentos comuns que ocorrem na vida de todos os pais? Quando os seus filhos nao querem tomar banho, comer, dormir ou ir para a escola! E como os pais podem reagir diante destas recusas infantis? "O Livro dos Animais" e uma serie de livros bilingues criada com o intuito de ajudar os pais e as criancas descobrirem os beneficios de se lavar, comer, dormir e ir a escola. A sua maneira divertida de educar tem feito grande sucesso entre pais e filhos, promovendo, tambem a interatividade entre eles, alem de incentivar o ensino de outro idioma de um jeito engracado e, verdadeiramente, educativo. Audiencia: Os livros sao direcionados as criancas entre 2 e 5 anos, antes de atingirem a escola primaria. Sao para as criancas nascidas em familias bilingues ou aquelas que nao sao bilingues, mas cujos pais estimulam o ensino de um segundo idioma ja desde os primeiros anos de vida, quando as criancas estao mais receptiveis ao aprendizado de novas linguas. A HISTORIA: Estes animais nao querem se lavar, comer, dormir e ou ir para a escola! Mas, aos poucos, cada um deles vai descobrindo que se lavar, comer, dormir e ir a escola faz muito bem...para eles e para as criancas! Todo mundo sabe como e dificil fazer os pequenos entenderem a importancia de comer na hora certa, de tomar banho, de dormir quando necessario e se arrumar para ir para a escola. Os livros mostram uma formula divertida de ensinar tudo isso. OS LIVROS DA SERIE: Episodio 1: Estes animais... nao querem se lavar! Episodio 2: Estes animais... nao querem comer! Episodio 3: Estes animais... nao querem dormir! Episodio 4: Estes animais... nao querem ir a escola! Os livros bilingues estao disponiveis nas seguintes combinacoes linguisticas: Portugues/Ingles, Portugues/Frances, Portugues/Espanhol, Portugues/Italiano, Portugues/Sueco Ingles/Frances, Ingles/Espanhol, Ingles/Italiano, Ingles/Sueco. Os livros tambem podem, ainda, ser encontrados nos seguintes idiomas: Portugues, Ingles, Frances, Espanhol, Italiano e Sueco. Critica: "O Livro dos Animais e uma serie de livros ilustrados, cuidadosamente criados para o publico infantil. [...] Estes livros sao encantadores e a historia conta o que acontece quando os animais do enredo, assim como muitas criancas, nao querem comer, tomar banho, etc. Os livros sao apropriados para os pais lerem as criancas pequenas. Tambem, sao muito adequados aquelas que sao mais velhas, mas que estao aprendendo a ler em dois idiomas. Alem disso, os livros podem ate convence-los a tomar banho, comer toda a janta, ir dormir sem reclamar e arrumar-se depressa para ir a escola! A estrutura repetitiva auxilia as criancas no aprendizado de novo vocabulario e os desenhos ilustram bem o texto, ajudando a compreensao das palavras novas. Eu posso, facilmente, imaginar as criancas pedindo para os seus pais lerem as historias muitas e muitas vezes. E, como muitas criancas fazem com os seus livros favoritos, divertirem-se ao contar, elas mesmas, as historias que aprenderam de cor. As criancas que estao em fase de inventar e escrever as suas proprias historias podem, certamente, querer escrever uma versao customizada, usando a estrutura como exemplo. Eu acredito que as historias sejam adequadas tanto para a leitura em casa quanto para uso em sala de aula."

Frontier History Revisited: Queensland and the 'History War'

Colonial Queensland was arguably the most violent of all Australian colonial frontiers. Her primary sources certainly reflect the doubtful honour of delivering the most frequent reports of shootings and massacre of indigenous people, the three single deadliest massacres on white settlers, the most disreputable frontier police force, and the highest number of white victims to frontier violence recorded in the history of any Australian state or territory. The most obvious explanation for the higher level of violence is provided by powerful evidence suggesting that she was also, in terms of original indigenous population and number of tribes on record, the single most populous of the Australian colonies. 'Frontier History Revisited' allow its readers an opportunity to examine and compare the most prominent statements made during the skirmish known in the popular Australian press as 'The History War', with a chronological listing of citations from the primary sources to colonial Queensland's history. It then goes on to examine political and other forms of dissent to her frontier indigenous policies and the actual role, presence and influence of missionaries and protectors. Finally it presents and debates anew the evidence of white and black victims to frontier violence in north-eastern Australia, for the first time providing a full listing of all recorded Europeans and assistants who fell victim during the nineteenth century to this violence within the territory of the present day state of Queensland.

Cabeza Trizada

El nombre de CABEZA TRIZADA surgio primero solo para un poema, pero como un centro, como un punto de union para escribir poemas sobre una comuna de Santiago de Chile, pero sin nada de romanticismo ni larismo. Eso fue en el ano 2003. Cuando el autor tenia 11 anos asistio a una exposicion fotografica y hubo una que le impresiono profundamente: la cabeza de un ciclista aplanada en el suelo junto a una masa informe de sesos, como consecuencia de un vehiculo que habia pasado encima de ella. Mucho tiempo despues esto fue el punto de partida de "Cabeza Trizada". Porque esta imagen organica es la representacion del fin de un orden; de que las ideas de una estabilidad natural, autoritaria e irromplibles; son falsas y ello se ve en las religiones, credos politicos y todas las instituciones que pretenden hacer creer en estados puros acerca del bien y del mal.

Hydrofoil Voyager: WILLIWAW, From Dream To Reality and Toward the Sailing Yacht of the Future

If someone told you that a force-4 puff of wind could lift a 1-1/2 ton sailing yacht right out of the water and make it go faster than the true wind speed, you might not believe him. So begins David Keiper's story of how he designed and built the 31-foot sailing yacht WILLIWAW, then logged almost 20,000 miles of cruising around the Pacific. Keiper tells his own story, and the precision of his telling -- he seems to have logged every wave, squall, and leak -- pulls you into the adventure. Read, and you are there, thrilled as the hull surges up to sprint on its foils; impatient as the sea goes flat in a dying wind; resourceful as yet another life-threatening crisis arises hundreds of miles from the nearest land. How was it done? The answers are here. Design and construction details are not the end of useful information in this book. The author (with readers in tow) faces infectious diseases on remote islands, creates ways to pay for extended voyages, and solves the thorny problem of recruiting female crew (yachting doesn't have to be a predominantly male sport, nor should it be). Oh... and there are recipes for tasty cooking at sea. Hydrofoil Voyager is rich with hard-earned insight on how to design, build, and sail your own hydrofoil sailboat. By "living" through trials by sea, you absorb the lessons as they come. You confront the problems along with the author and nail down solutions... or you tough it out and hope. In this new 2012 edition, a color cover, additional maps, annotations and an appendix are added with a prequel short story written by the author prior to the publishing of the original book. A note that since this has been published posthumously the quality of the images lifted from the original book does not match that of the original publishing but since it has been out of print for a number of years this re-publishing is primarily to allow a new generation of hydrofoil enthusiasts to enjoy the story of Dave Keiper's WILLIWAW.

Isan: Quiet Splendor

There can be few countries more agreeable to visit than Thailand, writes Peter Rogers (1989) in A Window on Isan. The beguiling charm of its people combine to create a temptation that few can resist. Indeed it would seem to be a magic formula whereby the Thais seek to enslave the hearts of their guests, usually with consummate success. Thailand's long-established image as the 'Land of Smiles' is nowhere more in evidence than in the Northeast -- in Isan. In a nation of outstandingly friendly people, those from Isan are notably gregarious, hospitable and kindly to a fault. This natural warmth of character, because there is certainly nothing spurious about it, contributes greatly to the visitor's pleasure in traveling in the Northeast, ensuring that he is everywhere welcomed and treated as an honoured guest. The urbanization of the Isan population has not greatly advanced, although it is on the rise. Isan remains overwhelmingly a land of small farms and village communities. Ethnically, Isan is an interesting transition area with its mix of Thai, Lao and Khmer people. Many writes treat the desolate landscape of Isan with disdain, writes Peter Rogers. "Perhaps the Northeast's charm reveals itself shyly to the connoisseur of Thailand's varied scenery and not to those impressed only by the visual cliches of the tourist post. The quite splendour of the Isan landscape, a landscape that can take on the serenity of the far horizons of a Sibelius symphony or a painting by Cezanne... rice fields and buffaloes, its hills and forests. These immemorial views, changing seasonally, are never far from the heart of the Northeastern rural scene, encompassing a land that today is less modified by the hand of man than any other part of Thailand.

The Secret Doctrine: Volume One - Cosmogenesis

The first part of the book explained the origin and evolution of the universe itself, in terms derived from the Hindu concept of cyclical development. The world and everything in it is supposed to alternate between periods of activity (manvantaras) and periods of passivity (pralayas). Each manvantara lasts many millions of years and consists of a number of Yugas, in accordance with Hindu cosmology.

The Power Game Offense

One of the main striking points of the "POWER GAME OFFENSE" is the concept of isolating a player in the low post, with all five players attempting to get that player the basketball.

This is especially true when you have two big players in the game or you have an advantage at another position.

The Wrath of Grapes

Over long, hard decades, American winemakers have won the respect of connoisseurs everywhere. Many of the world's most cherished, and expensive, wines come fro the United States.. But today, the unique and eccentric wine industry faces agrim set of challenges that could transform it forever: oversupply in the face of flat consumption, devastating vineyard diseases, an antiquated distribution system, fierce competition from abroad, attacks from anti-alcohol forces, and an inability to capitalize on wine's proven health benefits. But for you, these woes can be an opportunity, as wine journalist Lewis Perdue explains in this fascinating book. Clearly and crisply, forsaking the snobbish "winespeak" that helps keep wine mysterious and is itself one of the industry's problems.

Pullin no punches, naming names, this is an invaluable glimpse into a colorful, competitive, cantankerous world whose current troubles can actually add immeasurable pleasure to your life.

It covers all of the aspects involved. From basic design & engineering considerations through execution, including the fabrication of an armature, to formulating cement-based media, as well as sculpting and finishing techniques. The old masons who practiced this craft over the past hundred and fifty years or so closely guarded their secrets and jealously protected their processes and formulas. From one another and even their own family members. As a result, today it is very nearly a lost art. By sharing these hard earned techniques with you and others, the author hopes to see the craft revitalized by a new generation of artisans.

How To Raise A Man ... Not A Momma's Boy!

When I was first inspired to write this book I had no clue on how many lives it would touch. I'm so glad that I allowed myself to be challenged by a very dear friend to put pen to paper and release the first edition. Since the initial release I have been completely humbled by the comments from so many mothers who couldn't say thank you enough to me for providing them with an inside view on how boys think and respond to being raised without a father. Through my personal experience and the experiences of others I have been able to expose many of the pitfalls that mothers fall into when raising their sons alone. I never would have imagined that men would comment on the book they way they have. From them being able to identify with the material personally to being able to recognize why their sons are the way they are. Men have been able to admit that even though they may be in the home, their lack of involvement in the lives of their sons has produced a "Momma's Boy". This is not a book just for mothers but for all parents of sons. In response to the many comments I've received I am releasing the 2nd edition of "How To Raise A Man.. Not A Momma's Boy" which highlights some of the key points that when embraced and applied will help you to raise your son successfully. My hope is that you do more than read this book, but apply it. This book is for parents who's goal is to better understand their sons and do their best to raise their sons to become healthy men.

Ancient Earth Mysteries

Is humanity the first creation of intelligent beings? Do similar human-type species exist throughout the cosmos? If so, have those species mastered technologies only to self-destruct in an unfortunate series of events? The Universe is unbelievably enormous, this is undisputed. It's extremely selfish to think we are the only existing intelligent life. Science and religion are on the verge of discovering the truth. Super ancient societies and their archaeological evidence uncovered to this day is a vault of stored information waiting to be unlocked. All we need to do is find the key. Help us uncover the truth by learning about Ancient Earth Mysteries.Evidence suggests:"Humanity is not the first nor will be the last creation of intelligent beings. Perhaps millions of years ago a similar species existed which mastered technologies only to face its own demise by an unfortunate series of events. Maybe remnants of super ancient societies are mixed in with the archaeological evidence uncovered to this day. The results could be confusing us further when trying to solve the riddle of our past for this reason. If evolution evolved once, it seems likely evolution has evolved before in other ways as it continues to evolve simultaneously on other worlds. "

What Happens When God's Children Pray

If you have read my first book, "What Happens When We Only Believe?" you will have noticed that I only wrote a fragment of my personal testimony. While preparing for my second book, the Lord impressed upon me to discuss my life from the very beginning. Even though it may seem unusual, I have found that the Lord has a plan for everything in our lives, if we but follow Him. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Matthew 7:7-8. Today our nation is once more facing a very real recession. It is like no other since the Great Depression of the 1930's. I was born in 1931 in Springfield, Ohio. The nation was in the midst of the Great Depression. People everywhere were looking for work. There was no social security in those days. President Theodore Roosevelt conceived a program that put men to work, in what he called the W.P.A. or Works Progress Administration. Men cleaned streets, repaired buildings, or whatever work the government offered them. The men did anything in order to feed their families. Bread lines were long in those days, and folks had to get there early and stand in long lines to receive their portion of bread. Sometimes the bread supply was exhausted before everyone received their bread. It was a hard time for many families. Wealthy citizens suddenly lost all their money. Some jumped off of tall buildings and died. They had lost everything, and they felt all hope was gone. My father told us a story of his experiences during that period. I was their firstborn child. Dad worked in a large factory at this time, and mother stayed at home to care for me. My father's job wasn't what he liked to do. He was a mechanic and a carpenter at heart. I called him a "jack of all trades." Dad had a coworker in the factory that was not as versatile as he was. Dad knew that if he left the factory, this man would still have a job. He also had a family and was about ready to be bumped. It was then that dad decided to start his own repair shop in his garage. He loved cars and motorcycles, and he was good at whatever he did. His statement to me was that he had to earn money "for his baby's milk." Dad was also a salesman. He was a tall charismatic, good-looking man. People were naturally drawn to my father. At the same time that dad quit his factory job; he began soliciting for a major life insurance company. He said that no one could afford to buy life insurance at that time, but dad's theology was to "make friends now, the rest will come later." The Bible calls it "planting seeds." Sometimes we have to wait for the harvest, Amen! Well, dad's harvest did come. After things in the nation got better, dad's friends bought insurance from him. He did so well that he eventually became a district sales manager for the company. He retired from the insurance business well into his late 60s or early 70s. The Bible tells us that fortunes made in a hurry usually don't last. The Bible also states that fortunes made at someone else's expense usually call for a payback sometime later in life. From time to time, we hear of many people who have won a lot of money all at once, and eventually end up broke. You may say that they didn't have enough wisdom as to how to manage it. That is probably true, but the Word of God tells us this will probably happen. The Bible tells us we are to earn our bread by the sweat of our brow. Jesus was a good example of this; he was a carpenter. He could have called down gold from heaven if He so desired, but He chose to give us an example of hard work. We Americans think that life isn't fair or easy. The poorest person on the street has it tough, but sometime in their life they might have had it better. When we compare life in America to third world countries, we have a lot. We need to be more grateful.

Michigan Legacy Art Park

This book, written by David Barr, tells the story of Michigan Legacy Art Park, a nonprofit outdoor sculpture park in Thompsonville, Michigan. Michigan Legacy Art Park is dedicated to sharing the stories of the people, events and natural resources that continue to shape the legacy of Michigan. Contemporary artists interpret these stories through outdoor sculpture. With over 40 great works of art, the Art Park provides a rich cultural experience for thousands of visitors annually.Founded by internationally acclaimed artist David Barr in 1995, the Art Park is a natural extension and reflection of his work and global influence. Barr was awarded the Governor's Michigan Artist Award in 1988. In his acceptance speech, he told the audience of his desire to create a Michigan Art Park - a place where artists could tell the story of our state in and through the fundamental materials of nature. In his assessment of our state at that time, there was something missing - a place that expresses Michigan's history through the arts. Illustrations or artifacts of that history already existed, but he wanted contemporary artists to bring that history to fresh and vivid life.

Marijuana Edibles: 40 Easy and Delicious Cannabis-Infused Desserts

Make your own marijuana-based desserts, candies, and sweet-and-salty treats!

The Surf Diet

This went #1 bestseller. Promotional consideration on www.Facebook.com/SurfDiet and numerous broadcast interviews as "Surf Diet" co-author is the world's #1 supermodel surfer according to search engines. She has at least 1 more #1 bestseller: "Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise: The 5 Most Important Wellness Secrets of All Time. Both are endorsed by #1 superstar surfer John John Florence. Harvard celebrated her as Supermodel Activist of the Decade businesscabal.com/harvard-celebrates-supermodel-activist-veronica-grey/ ; Women and Shoes magazine named her Supermodel of the Year as does the Organization of National Extraordinary Professional Women & Women Who Rock With Success. On a recent episode of "Family Feud" survey said that the average length someone successfully lasts on a diet is a few weeks. Even "The South Beach Diet" admitted that many diets don't actually last. But for those of you who believed there MUST be a way to remain ripped and have it succeeded, then the BRAND SPANKING NEW Surf Diet was created just for you. Why? Because it is a new diet in the history of diet that has included a mechanism to beat failure - "The Cheat Day" or "cheat meals" which means the diet is designed specifically for ongoing success. We have all heard of many diet books and programs, from A to Z Atkins to Zone but how many of them produced LONG lasting PERMANENT results? This is where The Surf Diet excels. It was written like a "Cliffs Notes" of diet guides, because it incorporates THE BEST of what numerous other diets offer, plus the "fail - proof" mechanism of cheat days / cheat meals, which account for REALITY ~ how people eat in real life. This included anyone who simply intends to appear as a beach superhottie. This also encompasses anyone who enjoys extreme sports - like rock climbing, mountain biking, etc; basically anyone who did two to four hours of aerobic or anaerobic exercise daily. Why? It is more than a diet. It is a lifestyle. Surfing is an attitude. It isn't just about paddling out and attracting waves. Although when you do that, you embody the spirit of a siren, which means, those of us manifesting the next big corporate account or the next artistic success or just maintaining our best romantic relationship, will have discovered something that resonates from The Surf Diet. What else keeps "The Surf Diet" noteworthy although the aforementioned is certainly enough? The Surf Diet backs up with research: *how there's no such thing as an empty carb *how late night snacking CAN be good for you if done properly *why it is sometimes essential to eat MORE carbohydrates (not less) - this will keep all you bread and pasta lovers thrilled! *how vegetarians and vegans get plenty enough protein *various options for obtaining proteins *a realistic lifestyle plan for both vegetarians and vegans Plus The Surf Diet explores the holistic quality of surfing. It is not just the food you eat, but also the literature you read, the films you process, the clothes you wear, the audio to which you listen, and the people with which you surround yourself. As a bonus, unlike some other diet tomes, it even included exercise tips for those who wish to surf or already surf or prefer to anaerobic or aerobic activity daily. Finally, Supermodel Surf diet concludes with multiple mouthwatering recipes that are simple to prepare and pleasing to any palate.

Buddha's Daughters: Spiritual Journeys of Early Women of the Dharma

Historical fiction. Fifty stories of Buddhist women from the time of the Buddha in the sixth century B.C.E. to the twelfth century C.E. The Buddha welcomed women from all castes and circumstances as equals into his group of followers, despite the mores and traditions of the patriarchal, even misogynistic Brahman culture into which he was born. His teachings, his instructions for attaining enlightenment, were essentially gender neutral. As Buddhism evolved, however, into its many forms, strong cultural forces gave this and other major world religions and spiritual paths a heavily patriarchal overlay. In short, the history of Buddhist women, their many achievements, their very names, have frequently been largely ignored, only dimly seen, rarely known. These fifty stories include portraits from the major traditions and schools that form the basis for "Vajrayana" (Tibetan Buddhism). Tales are drawn from the early "Way of the Elders," from the later tradition of "Mahayana," and from the traditions that ultimately coalesced into "Vajrayana." The author hopes that the spiritual journeys of these women, some more widely known than others, might introduce Buddhist practitioners and other readers to the inspiring achievements of some of their spiritual Mothers. For readers who already know these women, or some of them, may these stories enrich that acquaintance.

12 Never-Mentioned Steps to Discipleship

This book was written to inform, equip, revolutionize, empower, and mobilize the Disciples of Jesus Christ. It will also bring to light the present status of discipleship in our churches today; offer real biblical solutions to restore our right relationship with Jesus Christ; and help to regain our effectiveness as Christian disciples in this present world. It is therefore imperative to know the correct structure and mission of the church in order for us to be prepared to make a difference in this corrupt and sinful world. I am not in any way introducing a new religion, new denomination, or another doctrine. This is a comprehensive study of Christian discipleship, and it reveals truths that some pastors and other religious leaders may not want you to know. After his reading of this book, a young minister said that he realized he was raised in this generation to believe that the present system of operation in many churches today is considered to be normal. He now recognizes that the "Doctrine of the Nicolaitans" (Revelations 2) fully exists today in the church. This system along with the teachings of the "The Shepherding Movement", have significantly reduced if not crippled, the effectiveness of many Disciples of Christ. Many disciples have unconsciously surrendered their rights and authority to their pastors and religious leaders. They have been trained to become servants of their denominations and its' leaders and not followers of Jesus Christ. People who are educated with the truth cannot be bullied, controlled or intimidated because they know their authority and rights, and will not surrender them to others. Christian discipleship is not an option for believers in Christ, but a way of life. When we chose to believe in Jesus Christ and follow Him, we became His disciples, that is, Christian disciples. He became our Lord and we belong to Him. Christian discipleship is a key element that demonstrates one's love and devotion to God and all people, and helps us to discipline our lives in ways that would help people, and bring honor and glory to God. So, get out of your dark dungeon, open your hearts and minds, and let us prayerfully step through the pages of the bible together as we will begin to recognize who we really are, and also to get to "know our rights and authority as disciples of Jesus Christ."

Erotic Africa: La décolonisation sexuelle - redécouvrons la sexualité africaine précoloniale sans tabous judéo-chrétiens imposés par les blancs

Un livre decoiffant qui aborde avec authenticite et clarte la vie sexuelle. Ce livre fait oeuvre unique alors meme qu'il y a plethore d'ouvrages sur la sexualite ; certes ici c'est de celle des Kamites (Africaines et Africains) qu'il s'agit avant tout, mais les revelations offertes aux lectrices et lecteurs de cet ouvrage peuvent etre, pour eux, autant de decouvertes dont la connaissance leur apportera les plus grands bienfaits en leur permettant la concretisation d'une vie sexuelle heureuse parce que pleinement epanouie. Ce livre balaie d'un coup les enormes degats psychologiques et meme physiques produits sur nombre d'etres humains par la multitude des preceptes aussi inutiles qu'errones introduits subrepticement dans leur cerveau par le canal du judeo-christianisme. Cet ouvrage est une precieuse contribution pour que la sexualite de tout etre humain reintegre l'ordre naturel qu'elle a eu le bonheur de connaitre en Kama (Afrique) avant l'odieuse periode de la colonisation chretienne, ainsi qu'avant l'arrivee de l'Islam... ! Ce dont la terre de Kama (Africa) a besoin aujourd'hui, c'est d'une veritable decolonisation, afin de retrouver sa juste place parmi les Nations, or toute veritable revolution est avant tout et a la fois, d'ordre culturel et cultuel... bien avant qu'elle ne puisse pretendre a la liberte politique et economique. Car s'il y a une chose dont certaines religions se servent comme d'un instrument ideal pour le controle de leurs sujets - et en particulier leurs sujets conquis et colonises - c'est bien de la sexualite qu'il s'agit, car un etre qui ne connait aucun sentiment de culpabilite, qui est adulte, libre et epanoui sur le plan sexuel, est un etre ouvert d'esprit, qui ne reflechit que par lui-meme, qui n'accepte pas de se laisser mouler a l'interieur d'un processus de ''normalisation''... Tout en demeurant cependant un etre pleinement ''spirituel'', face au conditionnement des masses il reste un ''rebelle''... et c'est d'ailleurs bien mieux ainsi, pour lui d'abord, mais aussi pour la paix de toute la societe qui l'entoure ! Ce livre etonne, il reveille parce qu'il fait prendre conscience d'un grand nombre de choses essentielles a la vie, il met en question nombre de certitudes acquises : en quelque sorte il remet les pendules a l'heure... mais a la ''bonne heure'', celle du vrai... ''bonheur'' ! ! Cet ouvrage est un ''evangile''... mais cette fois-ci, c'est une veritable ''bonne nouvelle''... pour le peuple noir de Kama (Africa), dont le plus grand ennemi n'est personne d'autre que lui-meme, a chaque fois qu'il se courbe par reverence au pied des religions du colonisateur, au point d'etre inhibe par lesdites religions et au point meme de se sentir inferieur a, voire carrement ''infeode'' a... l'homme blanc et sa culture judeo-chretienne... et ce, jusqu'a sa propre sexualite bafouee.. ! ! !

Dad's Reminiscences, Reveries and Ruminations

"Dad",son of a Civil War Union soldier, and one of nine children was born on the family farm in eastern Nebraska in 1872. Dad was a farmer, a vagabond, an adventurer, but still and always a family man. "Dad's Reminiscences, Reveries, and Ruminations" was written in 1918 by Henry Frederick Cathcart while stationed in France in the US Army during World War One, where he served as a Mess Sergeant. It was there that he acquired the nick-name "Dad" because of his age, 46, which was far too old to become a new US Army recruit, (but "Dad" found a way.) "Dad's Reminiscences, Reveries and Ruminations is a compilation of true essays written by "Dad" in poetry form to be sent home in letters to his family back home. They reflect the reminiscences of a lifetime of adventure, misadventure, hardships, sadness, and romance.They mirror the attitudes and family-oriented culture that prevailed in America during the Victorian era in which "Dad" was raised.

Adventures in the Arts: Informal Chapters on Painters, Vaudeville, and Poets

The papers in this book are not intended in any way to be professional treatises. They must be viewed in the light of entertaining conversations. Their possible value lies in their directness of impulse, and not in weight of argument. I could not wish to go into the qualities of art more deeply. A reaction, to be pleasant, must be simple. This is the apology I have to offer: Reactions, then, through direct impulse, and not essays by means of stiffened analysis.

Cans: The Life's Work of an Optimistic Dog

Who is an Artist
What are the characteristics that people use to determine whether one is an artist...or not? Education? Dedication to one's art? Does being an artist mean you're after some sort of pursuit of excellence with your chosen medium?

A dog named JoJo McGinnis collaborated with fellow creative, artist Marti McGinnis, to turn his very prolific output as an artist whose medium is metal sculpture using found objects into the collection depicted in this book.

Every evening while watching television, JoJo licks out a cat food can and then carefully, without one little mishap, crushes the thing using what he has - his teeth - forming it into a distinct work of art. "You can tell when he's done with a piece," McGinnis says, "when he flings it away with a quick toss of his burley head."

While he approaches his work with systematic craft, the art is revealed in the fact that no two finished works are ever alike. "There's amazing variety in his work." continues McGinnis. So she started saving his pieces, tossing one after another, night after night, into a shopping bag until it was brimming full. She came to notice when she laid them all out one day that the assortment before her made an interesting case for this dog as a genuine artist. "He's the real deal." asserts McGinnis.

This book makes the case for that. In doing so it also lays out an interesting argument for other "raw" or "outsider" artists and their work. Indeed, it sets a stage for anyone who's struggled with defining for themselves what makes art and who gets to be called an artist!

What's Inside:

• JoJo's Artist's Statement
• Over 120 of his pieces - individually titled
• JoJo's guiding principles as an Artist
• Some of Marti's original cartoon illustrations of the Artist's Life
• 100 Words of Wisdom straight from this very enlightened canine

Who's The Artist?
Multi-faceted, Marti McGinnis blogs, paints, draws, writes poetic ditties and looks after a small zoo of creative individuals of varied species. See more at: www.happyart.com

I Am C-3PO: The Inside Story: Foreword by J.J. Abrams

"Gloriously witty, keen and spirited" J.J. Abrams, Director of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

"The odds of me ever writing a book were approximately... Oh, never mind. My golden companion worries about such things - I don't. I have indeed now written a book - telling my story, in my voice, not his - recognising that our voices and our stories are inextricably intertwined."

When Star Wars burst on to the big screen in 1977, an unfailingly polite golden droid called C-3PO captured imaginations around the globe. But C-3PO wasn't an amazing display of animatronics with a unique and unforgettable voiceover. Inside the metal costume was an actor named Anthony Daniels.

In this deeply personal memoir, Anthony Daniels recounts his experiences of the epic cinematic adventure that has influenced pop culture for more than 40 years. For the very first time, he candidly describes his most intimate memories as the only actor to appear in every Star Wars film - from his first meeting with George Lucas to the final, emotional days on the set of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

With a foreword by J.J. Abrams and never-before-seen photography, this book is a nostalgic look back at the Skywalker saga as it comes to a close. I Am C-3PO: The Inside Story reveals Anthony Daniels' vulnerability, how he established his role and what he accomplished, and takes readers on a journey that just happens to start in a galaxy far, far away.

Forged in Purgatory

Forged in Purgatory is the memoir of Mr. Wang Zhongfang. He held senior positions in China's Ministry of Public Security, Ministry of Justice, Chinese Communist Party and the Qinghai Provincial Government. He joined Chairman Mao's communists in Yanan in 1937 at age 16 and rose to become the political secretary to Mr. Luo Ruiqin, new China's first Minister of Public Security who later headed the Peoples Liberation Army, General Staff Department. Wang helped Luo build the public security system in China. He worked in close proximity to chairman Mao until the purges of the Cultural Revolution when he fell victim to the power struggles of the Gang of Four. After his imprisonment in Qinghai's Nantan maximum security prison (which ironically he had supervised constructing), he was later rehabilitated and dedicated his life to building legal systems and institutions to promote the rule of law. Wang was instrumental to re-establish the lawyer's profession as president of the China Law Society. Together with Mr. Tang Houzhi, China's father of arbitration/mediation, he pushed to establish arbitration and mediation as institutionalized methods of dispute resolution over raw power and rule of men. Forged in Purgatory joins a limited number of published works on the Cultural Revolution period. It is the first ever written and published by a high ranking political insider in English. This book provides an insider's view of the political struggles of Chinese society and among its leadership during that chaotic time. It provides a rare look inside China's political, legal and penal systems at a time of extreme stress. Wang provides the reader, with a long-term rational perspective on the troubled Cultural Revolution period. He shares important insights, hindsight and foresight which he hopes can help future generations. Mr. Wang's sense of justice, fairness and commitment to right over wrong reflects the fundamental principles and founding spirit of the Chinese Communist Party. This book provides guidance as China faces the challenges of corruption, personal self-interest over the collective good and local protectionism and unauthorized centers of power. Mr. Wang's old-fashioned moral compass anchors a down-to-earth humanity that has never been diluted or diverted by anyone in power or in the name of any political slogan or justification. There are many lessons that can be applied to today's China as she navigates towards the future. Wang seems to ask whether China's people will build a future society where the livelihood and dignity of a common person is protected by rule of law and a vibrant institutionalized legal system. The Epilogue by Wang's wife Shi Luoming sings from the heart to law-abiding people everywhere who live their lives in radiant sunshine and breathe freedom. Forged in Purgatory will touch you, teach you and deepen an appreciation about what is really important in living one's life. All proceeds from this book will be dedicated to promoting legal education and building rule of law in China.

Lone Pine in the Movies: Celebrating the Roy Rogers Centennial

One hundred years ago, Leonard Franklin Slye was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. His family later moved to the small hamlet of Duck Run, where they worked a farm that produced a meager living. Young Len wanted a lot more from life, and he eventually got it--as Roy Rogers, King of the Cowboys, hero to millions of American children and a star of both big-screen and small-screen productions. Roy began his storied career right here in Lone Pine, where his first starring film--Under Western Stars--was made in early 1938. We go into some detail on that motion picture in the article that follows. For better or worse, Roy's career crisscrossed and intersected that of Gene Autry, the screen's first singing-cowboy star and the top box-office draw of Republic Pictures, where both men plied their trade for years. In his 1976 book Hollywood Corral, film historian Don Miller recognized their unique connection and decided to cover Gene and Roy together. His essay, "The Men from Music Mountain," was of course included in the 1992 Riverwood Press reissue of Hollywood Corral. But both versions of Miller's invaluable history have been out of print for many years now, and we're confident that many people reading Don's essay here will be seeing it for the first time. Chris Langley, a former director of the Lone Pine Film Festival and still on the board of the Museum of Film History, has been contributing to Lone Pine in the Movies since we published the first issue in 2003. From that number--which, like Hollywood Corral, is long out of print--we have reprinted by popular demand his groundbreaking article on silent-era director Clarence Badger. Chris is also represented in these pages with his latest essay, an overview of the career of director Lesley Selander, a frequent visitor to Lone Pine whose Westerns shot here include the vehicles of such major Western stars as Buck Jones and Tim Holt, as well as many entries in the Hopalong Cassidy series starring William Boyd. This year, with his superb article on Brigham Young (1940), we enlist in our Writers Brigade a distinguished new contributor. James V. D'Arc, Ph.D., has been at Brigham Young University's L. Tom Perry Special Collections since 1976. He is curator of the BYU Motion Picture Archive, the BYU Film Music Archive and the Arts and Communications Archive, and also runs the BYU Motion Picture Archive Film Series. Jim is responsible for acquiring and assisting patrons with access to BYU's motion picture-related manuscript collections that include Cecil B. DeMille, Merian C. Cooper, Henry Koster, James Stewart, Andy Devine, Max Steiner, Ernest Gold, Hugo Friedhofer, Ken Darby, Jack Mathis, and the Republic Pictures Music Archive. Since 1995, he has produced limited edition original soundtrack albums from the Max Steiner Collection at BYU, with a total of 18 titles in print. He provided the audio commentary for Fox Home Entertainment's DVD of Brigham Young and can be seen on various documentaries, including American Epic: Cecil B. DeMille, Hello, I'm King Kong!, and The Ten Commandments: Making Miracles. Jim is the author of When Hollywood Came to Town: A History of Moviemaking in Utah (Layton, UT: Gibbs Smith, 2010), a hardcover book with more than 350 illustrations with behind the scenes stories and that also identifies locations for the dozens of great western classic films made in Utah since 1924. This is his second time at the Lone Pine Film Festival. He previously visited us in 2009, when he graciously allowed us to screen one of BYU's treasures, the classic 1943 Republic serial Daredevils of the West. Once again we're greatly in his debt, and we guarantee you'll enjoy his impeccably researched article. Finally, in responses to dozens--perhaps hundreds--of requests we've received over the last five years or so, we are including a revised and updated checklist of films made wholly or partially on locations in Lone Pine and the eastern Sierras.

The First Marathon

The book "The First Marathon" describes the Battle of Marathon and the circumstances around it. This description is made through the memories, thoughts and meditation of herald Fidippidis during his run from Marathon to Athens, in order to announce the victory of the Greeks against the Persians. This first book of Stefanos Karapetsis is a historical narration combining a careful approach of historical reality with completely imaginary elements. It is written in a concise way and reflects in a clear and sensitive manner the important moments of that historical period. As the author notes in his introduction, the objective of his book is an attempt to throw light at the beginning of the glorious period known as "The Golden Age" of Athens, at the first half of the fifth century BC. The book's protagonists, besides Fidippidis, are imaginary as well as historical persons that have not gained particular attention, like the polemarch Kallimachus.

Cover Your Nut: Practical Accounting in Plain English for the Real World

My goal in this book is to give you a better understanding of the role of accounting in managing a company and the application of these management skills. I do not intend upon teaching you to become an accountant, but to give you a better understanding of the need for accounting systems in developing your management skills. You can always hire an accountant, but don't you think that it would be in your best interest to develop an understanding of what the financial statements can show you? All of us would like that magic formula to pick the business that we would like to start and run successfully, and hopefully this book will at least give you some new insights covering the different types of businesses. All of the businesses that I will review in this book require a planned management level accounting system to assure that all bases are covered as the company goes through each of the operating cycles. The item names (accounts), shown on a financial statement are intentionally placed in an order that allows management to read what has happened during an operating cycle (one month, six months, or a year). Keeping track of the company's assets, liabilities, income and expenses is all taken care of by a good accounting system and proper recording of the individual transactions. You can check out additional information about the book on my web site, www.budsbooks.com .

Our Sentence is Up: Seeing Grant Morrison's The Invisibles

Grant Morrison's THE INVISIBLES has been hailed as an ambitious comics masterpiece, the key to Morrison's entire body of work, and the inspiration for THE MATRIX. But it's also frequently written off as incomprehensible. Using a conversational, accessible style, Patrick Meaney (director of GRANT MORRISON: TALKING WITH GODS) opens up THE INVISIBLES through in-depth analysis that makes sense of the series's complicated ideas, fractured chronology, and delirious blend of fiction and reality. Meaney also explores how the series's fictional conspiracy theories fare in the wake of 9/11 and the War on Terror. The book includes an extensive interview with Grant Morrison and an introduction by Timothy Callahan (author of GRANT MORRISON: THE EARLY YEARS). From Sequart Research & Literacy Organization.

Caribbean Cooking Made Simple: A Cookbook/Memoir of my 20 years in the Caribbean Islands

Caribbean Cooking Made Simple is a cookbook / memoir containing 125 recipes from 17 Caribbean islands. But, the book is more than a cookbook that showcases meals and beverages of the Caribbean. It tells the story of how Pat Lovelace created a menu to satisfy the sophisticated tastes of guests visiting Pat and Guy's upscale boutique hotel. The book also chronicles her experiences on the islands where she collected the recipes. Pat and her husband built The Windmills Plantation on the remote island of Salt Cay in the Turks and Caicos in the 1980"s. This was well before those islands became a prime tourist destination that they are today. The island government sold the land for the project to Pat and her husband Guy contingent upon their using only local help to build and operate the hotel. Pat's kitchen staff was therefore selected from local women who had no culinary experience other than cooking simple island meals in their homes. The task was further complicated by the fact that all food items other than conch, lobster, grouper and hog snapper had to be flown from the US to the island of Grand Turk, clear customs there and then be loaded onto a small plane for transport to Salt Cay. After which it would be trucked to the hotel. All of the above was subject to inevitable island delays and mess ups. Fresh and frozen foods did not survive the ordeal. Pat was limited to canned food and vegetables that could be stored without refrigeration. She was able to use only a few frozen items that she could carry in cooler boxes with her luggage on her monthly buying trips to Miami. Using recipes she collected while visiting 32 Caribbean islands with her resort architect husband she created her Tour of the Caribbean menu. The menu took a culinary journey to a different Caribbean island for lunch and dinner every day. The recipes had to be simple enough for her staff to understand and execute. The positive guest reaction from Pat's culinary tour de force is documented in hundreds of letters of praise from her guests and their requests to food magazines for recipes.

The books describe ecodesign in ancient Indian and Chinese cultures. They were written when the author lived and worked in India and China.

Seeking the Master of Mo Pai: Adventures with John Chang

"In his search to transcend the boundaries of our conceived physical reality and deepen his own practice in the martial arts, Jim McMillan embarked on an unprecedented journey to first find an obscure teacher to help guide him towards an unknown destination; and second to understand the possibilities that are open to anyone with the desire and fortitude to foster a practice while recognizing the limitations being the first Western student to study a lost art engendered. This journey is completely unique and the path veers across the martial arts, ancient healing techniques, and mysticism. Jim McMillan encounters and describes these experiences with such humility and gratitude that their incredible nature feels completely appropriate in this world and honestly possible for individuals with the authentic desire to eclipse the confines of preconceived limitations. This story serves as a challenge for individuals to both open the mind to a world of possibilities while connecting the body and soul to the energy that surrounds us. I accept this invitation and hope others will too." -Peter Swanz, ND, FHANP "Jim's experience of the Mo Pai is one of magic, mystery, excitement, and betrayal. The book provided me with great hope and reconciliation of the true human nature in my heart which I always subconsciously sensed. It is also an urgent call in this precarious time for people of all races to unite in finding the lost and forgotten meaning within, by becoming aware of what we really are and demanding God's given knowledge to be released by various powers that be, without prejudice and for the benefit of all continuing humanity." -Peter Proksch, Mo Pai student

Random Writings: Witty commentary on important matters of the day and other things

Witty commentary on the important matters of the day including the Credit Crunch. Plus a collection of general ramblings about all sorts of things including some jokes and a puzzle. A book jam-packed with witty commentary on important matters of the day and other things, most of these stories were written between 2009 and 2011, starting soon after the Credit Crunch had nearly sunk the world economy - and might yet do so. Consisting mostly of general rubbish, they do not pretend to compete with the analytical expertise of Robert Peston or experts in banks (Ha!) and governments (Ha ha!) but some of them may contain just a grain of truth or common sense. One or two have dispensed with the rubbish and contain considerably more truth, and one is absolutely jam-packed with the truth. See if you can spot it.

Water and Oil: Government and Religion

Two of my primary works in one volume, each in conflict with the other, hence the Water and Oil. There are three of these volume, but no need to by more than one. Should you want to complete the set, simply buy the missing work at the regular price.

Physical Geometry: A Unified Theory

It is generally recognized that there exist problems in Physics. In particular, A. Einstein remained critical of some theoretical ideas in modern physics until his death. He was unsatisfied with his own gravitation and advocated the need for a fundamental unified theory which would include relativity, electromagnetism and gravitation from the beginning. He stated that the concepts of parallelism and differentiation are important. Furthermore, present models for Particle Physics are expressed in terms of a very large number of empirical parameters and a high number of dimensions. They are not clearly related to a fundamental underlying physical interaction. Gravitation and Electrodynamics are faced with serious theoretical challenges, particularly in Cosmic Physics due to the possible existence of dark matter and energy. Differential geometry offers the appropriate mathematical structure to accomplish Einstein's physical ideas. The key is "how to differentiate". In the book we use an Ehresmann connection, a concept related to groups. The group is determined from electrodynamics and relativity as the automorphisms of the space-time geometric algebra. Matter and fields are represented by generator-valued tensors. Unification is given by the fundamental nonlinear equation associated to the group. Microscopic physics is the study of linear excitations, which are group representations characterized by discrete numbers. Results obtained indicate that gravitation and electromagnetism are unified in a nontrivial manner. Odd generators represent non classical interactions. The equation of motion determines a geodesic motion with the Lorentz force term. The Einstein field equation with a purely geometric energy momentum tensor is obtained. In the newtonian limit, the constant geometric energy density of a hyperbolic symmetric solution is related to the gravitational constant G. Far from the limit the parameter G would be variable. This effect may be interpreted as dark matter. In vacuum, the known gravitational solutions are obtained. Electromagnetism is related to an SU(2) subgroup. If we restrict to the even U(1) subgroup we obtain Maxwell's equations. The equation of motion is a geometric generalization of Dirac's equation. This geometry is the germ of quantum physics including its probabilistic aspects. The geometric nature of Planck's constant h and of light speed c is determined by their relations to the connection and the metric. The alpha coupling constant is also determined geometrically. Mass is defined in terms of energy. The geometry shows various physical triple structures. The geometric excitations have quanta of charge, flux and spin which determine the fractional quantum Hall effect. The bare-mass quotients of the three stable particles are calculated giving a geometric expression for the proton-electron mass ratio, previously known but physically unexplained. There are connection excitations whose masses correspond to the weak boson masses and allow a geometric interpretation of Weinberg's angle. The equation of motion determines the anomalous bare magnetic moments of the proton, the electron and the neutron. The "strong" electromagnetic odd SU(2) part, generates short range attractive magnetic potentials which are sufficiently strong to determine the binding energy of the deuteron and other light nuclides. The bare masses of the leptons in the three families are calculated as topological excitations of the electron. The masses of these excitations increase under the action of a strong connection and are related to meson and quark masses. The mass spectrum for low masses agrees with the physical particle mass spectrum. The proton shows a triple structure that may be related to a quark structure. The combinations of the three fundamental geometric excitations (proton, electron and neutrino) form other excitations and may be used to represent particles showing a symmetry under the group SU(3)xSU(2)XU(1).

Hijas del Abuso

Las mujeres sometidas a un constante abuso emocional por parte de esposos, novios, maridos o companeros sentimentales, pagan un alto precio con su salud fisica y mental. Pero la mayoria de las personas, solo asocia abuso con golpes y moretones, pasando por alto los insultos, gritos, burlas y humillaciones, que no dejan huellas visibles, pero afectan la auto-estima y auto-confianza de la mujer, frenando su desarrollo personal y aporte a la familia, sociedad y a ella misma. Hijas del Abuso plantea de una manera vivida, a traves entrevistas, historias reales, y confesiones, que cuando una mujer se entrega y somete al abuso, puede padecer de depresion y desajustes nerviosos, asi como envejecer prematuramente o sufrir de demencia senil o Alzheimer, porque el abuso siempre cobra su porcion, dejando a la mujer sin fuerzas para vivir y seguir luchando. El abuso tanto fisico, sexual como emocional debe erradicarse porque pasa de generacion en generacion como un "virus contagioso". Los hijos que ven y se educan con el desprecio del padre y la sumision de la madre, repiten el mismo esquema de adultos. Los varones promoveran la violencia, y las ninas aceptaran los maltratos como algo normal. Ambos creeran que el mundo es un lugar lleno de miedo y vejaciones, donde no hay espacio para el amor y la comprension.

Rabbi from Kokand

This book is dedicated to the author's grandfather, Jacob Rubinov, who was a rabbi in Kokand, Uzbekistan, at the time of the Great Purge of 1937-38. The book tells Jacob's story, and how his life was affected by the events occurring in his country at that time. While the story contains historical facts, some details, however, are fictional, and some may seem exaggerated. That was the author's intent. If he had given an exact and more detailed description of the events, it would have seemed unrealistic and absurd. That very short period of time, between 1937 and 1938, represented the entire ideology of the socialistic system and Soviet government. This period was, and still remains, beyond human understanding.

The Ultimate Passage: Final Book in the "Passage" Saga

FINAL BOOK in the "Passage" Time Travel Romance Saga. Darius Calhoun is President of the U.S. in the year 2320. Citizens of earth now live in domed cities. They no longer feel hatred, jealousy, envy or love. They don't have sex either, and haven't for nearly two hundred years. Why? Because it's messy, unsanitary and can transmit disease. Imagine Darius' horror then, when he suddenly finds himself displaced in time at the whim of the goddess Aveena--goddess of love. Only one thing in 14th century Scotland enables Darius to keep his sanity. Her name is Lara Macgregor. Lara is beautiful, spunky--and looking for a mate. Of course, in this day and age, that means having sex and Darius wants no part of it. He feels nothing for Lara but friendship; at least he didn't at first. Now, though, strange things are happening to his mind and body and, with the war for independence in Scotland gaining momentum, so does Darius' resolve that government leaders in his own time did something terribly wrong.

O LIVRO DOS ANIMAIS: PARA AS CRIANCAS APRENDEREM SE DIVERTINDO COM OS SEUS PAIS Quais sao os quatro momentos comuns que ocorrem na vida de todos os pais? Quando os seus filhos nao querem tomar banho, comer, dormir ou ir para a escola! E como os pais podem reagir diante destas recusas infantis? "O Livro dos Animais" e uma serie de livros bilingues criada com o intuito de ajudar os pais e as criancas descobrirem os beneficios de se lavar, comer, dormir e ir a escola. A sua maneira divertida de educar tem feito grande sucesso entre pais e filhos, promovendo, tambem a interatividade entre eles, alem de incentivar o ensino de outro idioma de um jeito engracado e, verdadeiramente, educativo. Audiencia: Os livros sao direcionados as criancas entre 2 e 5 anos, antes de atingirem a escola primaria. Sao para as criancas nascidas em familias bilingues ou aquelas que nao sao bilingues, mas cujos pais estimulam o ensino de um segundo idioma ja desde os primeiros anos de vida, quando as criancas estao mais receptiveis ao aprendizado de novas linguas. A HISTORIA: Estes animais nao querem se lavar, comer, dormir e ou ir para a escola! Mas, aos poucos, cada um deles vai descobrindo que se lavar, comer, dormir e ir a escola faz muito bem...para eles e para as criancas! Todo mundo sabe como e dificil fazer os pequenos entenderem a importancia de comer na hora certa, de tomar banho, de dormir quando necessario e se arrumar para ir para a escola. Os livros mostram uma formula divertida de ensinar tudo isso. OS LIVROS DA SERIE: Episodio 1: Estes animais... nao querem se lavar! Episodio 2: Estes animais... nao querem comer! Episodio 3: Estes animais... nao querem dormir! Episodio 4: Estes animais... nao querem ir a escola! Os livros bilingues estao disponiveis nas seguintes combinacoes linguisticas: Portugues/Ingles, Portugues/Frances, Portugues/Espanhol, Portugues/Italiano, Portugues/Sueco Ingles/Frances, Ingles/Espanhol, Ingles/Italiano, Ingles/Sueco. Os livros tambem podem, ainda, ser encontrados nos seguintes idiomas: Portugues, Ingles, Frances, Espanhol, Italiano e Sueco. Critica: "O Livro dos Animais e uma serie de livros ilustrados, cuidadosamente criados para o publico infantil. [...] Estes livros sao encantadores e a historia conta o que acontece quando os animais do enredo, assim como muitas criancas, nao querem comer, tomar banho, etc. Os livros sao apropriados para os pais lerem as criancas pequenas. Tambem, sao muito adequados aquelas que sao mais velhas, mas que estao aprendendo a ler em dois idiomas. Alem disso, os livros podem ate convence-los a tomar banho, comer toda a janta, ir dormir sem reclamar e arrumar-se depressa para ir a escola! A estrutura repetitiva auxilia as criancas no aprendizado de novo vocabulario e os desenhos ilustram bem o texto, ajudando a compreensao das palavras novas. Eu posso, facilmente, imaginar as criancas pedindo para os seus pais lerem as historias muitas e muitas vezes. E, como muitas criancas fazem com os seus livros favoritos, divertirem-se ao contar, elas mesmas, as historias que aprenderam de cor. As criancas que estao em fase de inventar e escrever as suas proprias historias podem, certamente, querer escrever uma versao customizada, usando a estrutura como exemplo. Eu acredito que as historias sejam adequadas tanto para a leitura em casa quanto para uso em sala de aula."

Run & Gun Basketball

Run & Gun Run & STUN Run & FUN WHAT OTHER COACHES WHO HAVE READ "Run and Gun Basketball" HAVE TO SAY: DEAN SMITH : "I think your book "Run and Gun Basketball" is well thought out and would be a useful tool in teaching this system. I especially like the distinction you make between 'run and gun' basketball and poorly coached defensive teams. This is a common misconception, I think you are wise for making this distinction." PAUL WESTHEAD : "You have great stuff for "Fast Break Basketball." Your idea of constant pressuring is the game of the future." JOHN WOODEN : "It makes for a very interesting style." CLIFF ELLIS : "I enjoyed looking at your book "Run and Gun Basketball." I think the material is very interesting and will be worthwhile to readers of basketball interest." BURRALL PAYE : "I read "Run and Gun Basketball" with a great deal of interest. It informed me of innumerable number of basketball points. You have an excellent book. I love reading other coaches thoughts, their Xs and Os, and their philosophy. I always gleam gems from their works to make my club stronger. I've certainly done that from your work. The more little coaching points you give, and you have given tremendously, the better the book in the end. I think you have an excellent product. Good luck, you have a winner!" This book details the Run and Gun Basketball System both from the offensive and defensive part of "The System."

Humans being the most intelligent species and having lived on Earth for thousands of years, we are yet nowhere near to a life of peace, love, joy and harmony.

The Open Post Offense

This is an 81 page book that covers the entire Open Post Offense. There are seven series for a complete Open Post Offense. 1. The Cutting Series 2. The Screening Series 3. The Double Series 4. The Dribble Series 5. The Roll Series 6. The Circle Series 7. The Zone Offense Series. Not only are all series shown in complete detail with diagrams and text, but included are drills on how to teach each series. This is a great offense if you do not have a post player. Especially, if you have all guards or guards and forwards. Yet, we have found that when you do have a post player it is easier to post him up and get him the ball inside in this offense than another offense we have used or seen.

Swarm March Up Zone Defense

Defense is that part of the basketball game that a team must play well to be successful. In this modern game the offensive player has become so great that a coach must have something different to combat this. No longer can a team play one type of defense during a game, let alone a season. More and more coaches are changing from man to man to a zone defense and vice versa during a game to combat the efficiency of the opponent's offense. The Swarm Match Up Defense is a combination of both man to man and zone. Without changing the rules the coach can alter this defense to meet the opposition's offense. Good defensive teams will defeat an excellent offensive team most of the time. A fair defensive team will defeat a good offensive team most of the time. Your defense will not let you down during a game but your offense will. Defense is the name of the game! The Swarm Match Up Defense is different and requires your opponent to prepare differently to attack it if he is to be successful.

Grell on RICO: A Practical Guide to the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act

This book was updated in April 2018. If you buy from a non-Amazon vendor, make sure you are buying the most recent edition. In 1970, Congress passed the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1961-1968. At the time, Congress' goal was to eliminate the ill-affects of organized crime on the nation's economy. Throughout the 1970's, RICO was seldom used outside of the context of the Mafia. In the 1980's, however, civil lawyers noticed section 1964(c) of the RICO Act, which allows victims of racketeering to bring civil claims and recover three times their actual damages. The financial windfall available under RICO inspired the creativity of lawyers across the nation, and by the late 1980's, RICO was a (if not the most) commonly asserted claim in federal court. RICO's broad application was the result of Congress' inclusion of mail and wire fraud as two crimes upon which a RICO claim can be brought. During the 1990's, the federal courts, guided by the United States Supreme Court, engaged in a concerted effort to limit the scope of RICO in the civil context. As a result of this effort, RICO has become one of the most complicated and unpredictable areas of the law. Today, RICO is almost never applied to the Mafia. Instead, it is applied to individuals, businesses, political protest groups, and terrorist organizations. The purpose of Grell on RICO is to simplify this very complicated area of the law and to articulate and make more predictable the legal standards that govern such claims.

Sex is Better with Men Over 50, makes a fun gift for men of any age, revealing the mind of a woman on the topic men think of most. This is information you wish your husband would have had when you were 25.

Sex is Better with Men Over 50 is a collection of 100 quips on why men improve as sexual partners. Written for even minimal readers. Arla wrote the book because as a therapist she was alarmed at the growth of sex-addiction, and sad about the societal swing that has ignored the power and trashed the beauty of sex. Wanting to re-establish sex as love, instead of just tension release or getting needs met, she indirectly educates men and women over 50, who often give up on sex when it begins to require more. There is encouragement here for both sexes. "A man over 50 is more likely to cuddle with you after lovemaking, and talk!"

African and European Addresses

My original intention had been to return to the United States direct from Africa, by the same route I took when going out. I altered this intention because of receiving from the Chancellor of Oxford University, Lord Curzon, an invitation to deliver the Romanes Lecture at Oxford. The Romanes Foundation had always greatly interested me, and I had been much struck by the general character of the annual addresses, so that I was glad to accept. Immediately afterwards, I received and accepted invitations to speak at the Sorbonne in Paris, and at the University of Berlin. In Berlin and at Oxford, my addresses were of a scholastic character, designed especially for the learned bodies which I was addressing, and for men who shared their interests in scientific and historical matters. In Paris, after consultation with the French Ambassador, M. Jusserand, through whom the invitation was tendered, I decided to speak more generally, as the citizen of one republic addressing the citizens of another republic.

A Victorian Mansion in the Colorado Rockies: The Estemere Estate at Palmer Lake: An Architectural and Social History of a Unique 19th Century Mansion

This book is an architectural and social history of a unique 19th century mansion.

Kiso Method™ Structural Alignment Manual II For Chiropractors: Cervical Spine & Cranium

A revolutionary healing method originally created for chiropractors but has been also adapted to other healing practitioners. There are two manuals both under the heading of Kiso Method Structural Alignment. Two for chiropractors and two for non chiropractors. For all the books, manual one focuses on the lumbar spine, pelvis and thoracic spine, while manual two delves into the cervical spine and cranio-sacral region. This Chiropractic version has both non force and force techniques. Some chiropractors emphasis either one or use a blend, depending on what the patient needs at the time of treatment. For many chiropractors, the non force methods open up a whole new door way, enabling them to treat severe disc injuries without causing pain to the patient in the process. The Kiso Method has a very specific form of analysis and adjusting. The concepts are fresh and original. It's designed to help those patients with disc injuries, with pain in either the sciatic nerve or brachial nerve or for those patients suffering from chronic or acute muscle spasm. You can even become a certified Kiso Practitioner, see our website for more details at kisomethod.com

Anglican Sanctification: The Work We Were Given To Do

As both a psychologist and an Anglican Priest, I ask myself questions: What constitutes the attributes of a Christian? How are Christians different than those who are not Christians? Are new Christians different from older Christians? Is there some kind of emotional patina evident to others as Christians age? From the perspective of science, does Christianity offer a method or treatment with observable outcomes? Does regular church attendance, Scripture reading and service to others make a difference? Do we become what we practice? Is there a change of personality sometimes referred to as conversion of manners? Is what we call the fruits of the Spirit evident in Christian lives? Do Christians respond differently to the events in their world? Are they more resilient than others? My answer to all of these questions is, "Yes".We cannot depend on our culture to be the good soil for the growth of the Kingdom of God nor should we. I believe it is our Lord's charge to His church to feed His sheep and equip His saints for service. We must not allow ourselves to be co-opted by the culture. As a church, we may not allow our work, the work Christ gave us to do, to be outsourced to our governments. We must do what we have traditionally done and that is to prepare our sheep in this life as citizens for God's Kingdom now and in eternity. Ultimately, the difference in a culture is made by any Christian who listens to God and is willing to take on the unique assignment that God offers. It is a spiritual niche that will give purpose and meaning to the life of any individual. As our collect for Morning Prayer states, in part, "To know Him is eternal life and to serve Him is perfect freedom." This niche may change over time but it is assignments that can make the sun stand still if necessary. It is an assignment of good works, the works we were called to walk in. Christians have treatment efficacy as they walk and talk and play and laugh......and become whole and holy themselves. It is about Christians as change agents in the world. The church is on this earth to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ but it is also here as a restraint to evil.In light of this, as an ordinary Christian, I would like to make a case for what it means to be a Christian in a culture that is increasingly pagan and sometimes openly hostile to Christians. What is the path the ordinary Christian is intended to walk as he or she matures in the faith? In a sense, this is my story too. It is an expanded testimony to what God can do with an ordinary person, broken and sinful, seeking death, killing himself on the installment plan. If you want to be whole and holy, I have included things that have helped me. There is a design and discipline to the Anglican Christian Life. The boundaries are useful and guiding but not confining.This is not a call for you to seek holy orders. This is a call for you as members of Christ's church to become more deeply involved in your own spiritual development. You are the church. You are acting on behalf of Christ in this world. As Isaiah states, "Listen to me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek the Lord: "Look to the rock from which you were hewn."(Isa. 51:1) and that rock is the church. The most important thing we can do as Christians is to build our testimony with God's help. It is our Christian resume. We are called to witness the truth to a world that no longer knows right from wrong. We can do this if we model our faith but first we must learn and practice that faith for which our Lord gave His precious and perfect life.This book is a kind of primer for those who are investigating the Traditional Christian faith and those who are Christians wanting to go more deeply into the faith lived in a sacramental and monastic way.

Humorous memoir of married life as experienced by two average people who were married in their teens. A compilation of various funny stories and events, addressing the mistakes, misjudgements and dangerously funny actions and consequences experienced throughout their 41 plus years together. For the reader: You will witness the unbridled hand of a wife who unintentionally pushes her husband to the brink of insane exasperation as she attempts to address adult responsibilities and issues. You will laugh at her zany reasoning while her family is left wondering, 'What just happened here?' You will scratch your head then you ask yourself, 'What was she thinking?' when she integrates her own unique ideas and style in an attempt to keep the romance hot, fresh and alive in their marriage, only to have her efforts thwarted as they backfire into a dangerous yet comical outcome. You will smile at her innocent yet gullible mindset as she never doubts but always believes even the most incredible and unbelievable things her husband tells her. You will ask yourself how her friends and family maintained their sense of humor, loyalty, trust and devotion toward her after being forced at times to the very limits of their own understanding. When you finish reading this book you are promised to have a new and lighter sense of understanding as well as a new way of percieving those day to day struggles, adventures and hurdles faced by all married couples regardless of age. Most importantly, you're guaranteed to understand why, 'Marriage is indeed a barrel of laughs, unless you're the one in the barrel.' A snip-it from a proverbial idiom said to have come from the mind of Bernard of Clairvaux around 1670 AD; 'The road to Hell is paved with good intentions'

These Animals... Don't Want to Sleep!

This time, these animals don't want to sleep! But step by step, each one discovers that to sleep is really very important for animals, as well as for children! A funny way to learn and a funny way to teach. As everyone knows how difficult it can be to explain to young children how important it is to sleep... This is the 3rd Episode of "The Book of The Animals" children's books series by J.N. Paquet. FUN LEARNING FOR CHILDREN AND PARENTS What are certainly the four most occurring moments in a parent's life? When their child doesn't want to wash, doesn't want to eat, doesn't want to sleep and doesn't want to go to school. And what can a parent answer to these refusals? The successful "Book of The Animals" children's books series was created with the aim to help both parents and children to discover the benefits of washing, eating, sleeping and going to school, in a fun as well as educational manner. Parents will enjoy the teaching and the interactivity they can gain from reading them with their children. "These Animals... Don't Want to Sleep!" is one more example of that reciprocal fun learning. It is the third episode of the series by author J.N. Paquet. It is currently available both as paperback and eBook formats. In this new episode of the series, children will discover the benefits of sleeping, with the help of their favourite friends, the animals! As with the other books in the series, children will not only discover the benefits of sleeping, but they will also discover some new animals, new words and new situations. The book makes fun learning something essential in the child's general learning process. THE AUDIENCE The books are geared towards children aged 2-5, before elementary/primary school. THE CURRENT BOOKS There are currently four books in the series. Each 'episode' brings on new animals, new words, new situations and new stories. - Ep.1. "These Animals... Don't Want to Wash!" (2008) - Ep.2. "These Animals... Don't Want to Eat!" (2009) - Ep.3. "These Animals... Don't Want to Sleep!" (2010) - Ep.4. "These Animals... Don't Want to Go to School!" (2011) The books are all available in either bilingual or monolingual versions: - Bilingual versions: English-French, English-Portuguese, English-Italian, English-Spanish, and English-Swedish. - Monolingual versions: English, French, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish, and Swedish. More versions are still to come... REVIEW "The Book of the Animals is a planned series of illustrated books for young children. [...] These delightful books tell the story of what happens when the animals in the stories, like many young children, don't want to eat and don't want to wash... The books are very suitable both for reading to young children and for older children to use to learn to read in both languages. They might even persuade them to wash and eat their dinner! The repetitive structure is supportive of children learning new words and the illustrations work well alongside the text to help understanding of unfamiliar words. I can easily imagine young children demanding repeat readings and enjoying learning the text by heart as many children do with favourite stories. Children learning to make up and write their own stories might well want to write a personalised version, using the structure as a prop. I think the stories would work well both in the home and in the classroom."

Knieschmerzen. Rezepte der Naturheilkunde zur Eigenbehandlung

Zum Ausdrucken oder fur Ihr Lesegerat - dieser Titel ist ab Juni 2016 als pdf auf ebooks-rieger.de erhaltlich. In diesem Ratgeber sollen Sie selbstandig mit Knieschmerzen umgehen lernen, sie behandeln und heilen. Und das mit rezeptfreien Arzneien. Eigentlich ein ziemlich grosser Anspruch, finden Sie nicht? Wo ist da die grossartige Landschaft von Kernspintomographen, Athroskopien und Gelenksersatzoperateuren? All diese Moglichkeiten sind auch nicht schlecht. Aber glauben Sie mir: 90 Prozent der Falle von Kniegelenkschmerzen sind mit sanften und vernunftigen Mitteln heilbar, ohne dass Sie uberhaupt einen Arzt konsultieren. Ich bin seit dreissig Jahren Arzt, ich weiss, wovon ich rede. Ich habe elf Jahre im Krankenhaus gearbeitet und dabei so ziemlich alles gemacht oder dabei assistiert, was der Orthopadie und Chirurgie hier zur Verfugung steht. Und ich bin seit 10 Jahren in eigener Praxis niedergelassen. Als Internist und Naturarzt. Auch diese Tatigkeit hat mich bescheiden gemacht. Oft kann man nicht helfen, manchmal hilft man durch Zufall - und in vielleicht zwanzig, dreissig Prozent der Falle reicht es, sanft und mit naturlichen Mitteln zu helfen und kann dadurch Heilungen erreichen, die jedem anderen, vor allem gross tosenden Arzten verwehrt bleiben, denen es letztendlich um nichtmedizinische Fragen geht, wenn Sie mit Knieschmerzen in ihrer Praxis auftauchen. Fragen wie: Gelingt es mir, meinen Tagesumsatz so hoch zu halten, dass ich selbst gut leben und meine Mitarbeiterinnen bezahlen kann? Kann ich Knie oft genug operieren, um meine Lizenz dafur behalten zu durfen? Untersuche oder operiere ich oft genug, um die Firmen, die das sponsern, auf Dauer zufrieden zu stellen? Sie sehen schon - Sanftes und Billiges unter den Arzneimitteln, an denen man wenig oder gar nichts mehr verdient, wird Ihnen in der Praxis nur selten empfohlen werden. Aber in Ratgebern wie diesen konnen Sie noch damit rechnen. Schliesslich haben Sie im Regelfall ja ohnehin schon mit dem Kauf dieses Buchs dafur bezahlt, uber alle Moglichkeiten der Gelenktherapie informiert zu werden. Mehr mussen Sie hier finanziell nicht leisten. Wohl aber mussen Sie bereit sein, die hier geschilderten Rezepte konsequent auszuprobieren, um auch Hilfe zu erfahren. Fur so ein ,,Ausprobieren" sind drei Wochen Behandlung das Minimum. Idealerweise werden Sie bei der Behandlung mit den Schussler-Salzen anfangen, die Sie bewusst auswahlen. Danach versuchen Sie sich in der Homoopathie. Und zuletzt wenden Sie sich Heilpflanzen zu, denen schmerzlindernde Wirkung auf Gelenke attestiert wird. Hier sind drei Wochen gerade ausreichend. Viele Menschen sagen, dass man hier schon einige Monate mit einer Pflanze ,,gearbeitet" haben muss, um seine Schmerzen in den Griff zu bekommen, da die Information, die die Heilpflanze anbieten kann, erst vom Korper verstanden werden muss, bis er darauf reagieren kann.

Tarnished Gold: The Sickness of Evidence-based Medicine

Evidence-based medicine, the "gold standard" of medical decision making, is increasingly unpopular with clinicians. They are right to have reservations. EBM breaks the laws of so many disciplines that it cannot be considered scientific or even rational. Decision science and cybernetics show the disturbing consequences of such flaws. EBM fosters marginally effective treatments, based on population averages rather than individual need. Its mega-trials are theoretically incapable of finding the causes of disease, yet swallow up research funds. Ultimately, EBM cannot avoid risking patients' health. It is time for medical practitioners to discard EBM's tarnished gold standard, reclaim their clinical autonomy, and provide individualised treatments to patients. This book explains why and how.

How to Stay Out

This is a self help book to help released inmates stay out of prison or jail. The good news is - you are going to get out. The bad news is, without a good plan and a lot of hard work, you are probably coming back. According to the FBI, two out of three released inmates are back in trouble within 3 years. These statistics shout an ironic truth - that it's easier to get out - than to stay out. So the question is, 'What can we do to insure we won't come back here again?' And the answer is, 'Planning.' We need a plan to change our lives. We can't expect a small change to give us the success we desire. It requires us to change almost every aspect of our past lives. We need to change the way we think, the way we act, the way we feel, the way we present ourselves, our priorities, our goals, our friends, maybe even our families - just about everything. If we are not ready to make major changes, if we are not ready to commit to giving this our best effort, then we should resign ourselves to a future of incarceration.

It concludes by offering women and men an egalitarian alternative to patriarchy, best exemplified by the life and teachings of Jesus Christ.

Bring your body into balance with over 100 healing recipes for a modern Ayurvedic lifestyle.

The ancient science of Ayurveda teaches that food is divine medicine with the power to heal--but the best foods for one person may not be beneficial to another. Unlike many diets with rigid, one-size-fits-all guidelines, Ayurveda is a lifestyle that recognizes the ever-changing needs of each individual. Join author Sahara Rose on a journey to wellness and discover how to eat according to your body's specific needs. Identify your Dosha, or mind-body type, and find out what foods are best for your body. Learn how changes in season and climate affect your digestion and how to adjust what you eat accordingly. Rather than focusing on calories, you'll focus on food qualities. Rather than focusing on macronutrients, you'll focus on tastes--and you'll feel better than ever.

Fall in love with cooking as you explore more than 100 plant-based, gluten- and dairy-free recipes for every meal of the day, including contemporary twists on classic Ayurvedic cuisine, such as turmeric-ginger kitchari and gut-healing seaweed broth. Packed with practical guidance and beautiful photography, Eat Feel Fresh integrates traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with contemporary nutritional science, and invites you to change your relationship with food and connect with your highest self.

Mardukite Druids of the Deep: The Elven-Faerie Anunnaki Dragon Legacy

[Mardukite Heritage Edition: A reissue of an otherwise cycled out-of-print edition kept available for review and posterity as part of the developmental legacy of the Mardukite Research Organization, founded 2008.] The original 'mardukite' masterpiece is brought alive once again for a new resurgence of public interest! Within these pages you will follow the ancient traditions of Mesopotamia (Sumerian, Babylonian) as they evolve into the mystical, mythical and societal systems of Western Europe. Discover how the most arcane practices actually shaped the beliefs of the western world and learn how mystical lineages of modern "folk magic" can be actually traced through the evolution of human civilization on the planet - all the way back to the ancient Anunnaki and becoming the practices of the Tuatha de Dannan (Tuatha d'Anu) and other Celtic Druid tribes. Ever popular in the underground, this book includes the complete 'Druids of the Necronomicon' discourse extracted and revised from the full corpus privately released by prolific writer, Joshua Free, in 2006 titled: "Book of Elven-Faerie." As a special addition to this study-edition, related outlines and overviews have been included from the book "Guardians of the Gates" (also available in "Ancient Aliens - Modern Mardukites) including a special epilogue by Mardukite Chamberlain, Sethbob. This transcript serves as a powerful reference to Truth Seekers, restoring the historical basis of the modern "New Age" movements resulting from one Seeker's pursuits into the origins of the "Druids." The work is so profound, it later came to serve as a launch-point for the modern "Mardukite" Anunnaki revival!

Akbar, Emperor of India

The student of India who would at the same time be an historian, discovers to his sorrow that the land of his researches is lamentably poor in historical sources. And if within the realm of historical investigation, a more seductive charm lies for him in the analysis of great personalities than in ascertaining the course of historical development, then verily may he look about in vain for such personalities in the antiquity and middle ages of India. Not that the princely thrones were wanting in great men in ancient India, for we find abundant traces of them in Hindu folk-lore and poetry, but these sources do not extend to establishing the realistic element in details and furnishing life-like portraits of the men themselves. That the Hindu has ever been but little interested in historical matters is a generally recognized fact. Religious and philosophical speculations, dreams of other worlds, of previous and future existences, have claimed the attention of thoughtful minds to a much greater degree than has historical reality.

Ineffable Somalia: A Peep into the Life of an African Woman Crusader

INEFFABLE SOMALIA ...This is a sensational narrative of her life in SOMALIA - the land of untrained future. Amina Abdikarim Labaan set her goal exalting to the spirit. She joined the gang of pirates. They took her captive in a stealth operation. In the courtroom of Russia, she poured the saga of tragic and miserable condition of Somalia into attentive ears of the world populace with the emblem of hope. An African crusader, a wonder woman Amina, an inspiring comrade, spoke to the world with determined spirit amidst heartrending noisy applause. She was adamant. She was a spirited combination of verve and gusto. She was the hope of her country for liberty. She fiercely fought an unbreakable battle following the hard endurance of many days between her land and seawater. The book will create appealing feelings of astonishment and wonder. An unpretentious Somali girl Amina in her role of journalism struggles to bring improvement to bring about vital and dramatic changes in her country Somalia where extreme poverty prevails. Having ignored entirely, she strays from the path of traditional behavior to join the gang of pirates in a revolutionary and groundbreaking style. AMINA - A magical phenomenon arises in Somalia, the stateless land of eternal gang wars between warlords, where chaos reigns and dreaded pirates emerge. The patriotic Amina, the natural beauty, with all the potential of becoming a renowned model chooses journalism to reach out to the masses. She wanted to lead the life of a crusader. With careful planning and tactics in place, this African intellectual woman activist worked from a specific ideological perspective as frontline member representing her country Somalia. Nevertheless, the life of a crusader is not rosy or promising. The path is very intricate, challenging and problematical. After all, then, the young girl had a lot of grit and courage in her. A crusader and a revolutionary by nature being fundamental character of a person, at her young age of 25, she makes a vigorous concerted movement for a specific cause. Her strategy and guiding principles are very striking to glide anyone along the path of uneasiness and apprehension. In-between she will turn towards progressive path of love and affection. It was my intense and passionate love affair with this Somali beauty Amina Abdikarim Labaan on the Eastern Coast of Africa, which gave me an insight into the intricacies of life. In the midst of this chaotic buzz, she plays both roles just perfect and with ease. In the meanwhile, she encounters an unexpected destiny and reality of her peculiarly unsettling ambition she encounters with an uncanny fluency. A twist she thinks will help her to realize her dream. Therefore, if anyone wants truly depict, she was with conventional view neither a revolutionist nor a sage, she was an ordinary girl on her way to perform extraordinary feats for the cause of her country. This true story, however strange it may be, expressed events of a period in time perceptible as intermediate between past and future showing deep sincerity of intention to improve and elevate the life of people in Africa, particularly in Somalia. It is my sincere hope that the present generation will help make changes for improvement in order to remove abuse and injustices and provide better conditions of health and education.

A tutorial on the Kitáb-i-Íqán: A journey through the Book of Certitude

A journey through the Book of Certitude The Kitab-i-Iqan is one of the most important Writings of Baha'u'llah, the Founder of the Baha'i Faith. Baha'u'llah revealed this book within the space of two days and two nights, in the last years of His stay in Baghdad (AH 1278--AD 1862). According to Shoghi Effendi, the Guardian of the Baha'i Faith, The Kitab-i-Iqan sets "forth in outline the Grand Redemptive Scheme of God" and it "occupies a position unparalleled by any work in the entire range of the Baha'i literature, except The Kitab-i-Aqdas Baha'u'llah's Most Holy Book." This current book is a record of the journey that the author has taken through The Kitab-i-Iqan over a period of 12 years. It is not an interpretation or a critical analysis of the content of the book. Neither does it provide any personal opinion. It primarily guides reader through a systematic study of the Iqan while providing some background information on topics raised by Baha'u'llah in each paragraph. It is called a tutorial as it attempts to simulate, as much as possible, the tutor-tutored relationship in a self-paced personal study. All the references in the tutorial are sourced either from authoritative Baha'i materials or obtained from other reliable sources. The 290 paragraphs of The Kitab-i-Iqan are apportioned for study to 58 chapters. The size and complexity of each chapter reflects the content and intricacy of the issues addressed in the paragraphs included therein. Each chapter starts with an introduction that highlights the key ideas. Then in a coherent manner, background information on the terminologies, references and mystical concepts inherent in each paragraph is provided. The tutorial covers the 266 topics embedded in The Kitab-i-Iqan. This second edition of the book, which was originally released in 2012, contains many editing improvements, and some changes and additions to the content.

Estes Animais... Não Querem Comer! (Bilíngue Português-Francês)

O LIVRO DOS ANIMAIS: PARA AS CRIANCAS APRENDEREM SE DIVERTINDO COM OS SEUS PAIS Quais sao os quatro momentos comuns que ocorrem na vida de todos os pais? Quando os seus filhos nao querem tomar banho, comer, dormir ou ir para a escola! E como os pais podem reagir diante destas recusas infantis? "O Livro dos Animais" e uma serie de livros bilingues criada com o intuito de ajudar os pais e as criancas descobrirem os beneficios de se lavar, comer, dormir e ir a escola. A sua maneira divertida de educar tem feito grande sucesso entre pais e filhos, promovendo, tambem a interatividade entre eles, alem de incentivar o ensino de outro idioma de um jeito engracado e, verdadeiramente, educativo. Audiencia: Os livros sao direcionados as criancas entre 2 e 5 anos, antes de atingirem a escola primaria. Sao para as criancas nascidas em familias bilingues ou aquelas que nao sao bilingues, mas cujos pais estimulam o ensino de um segundo idioma ja desde os primeiros anos de vida, quando as criancas estao mais receptiveis ao aprendizado de novas linguas. A HISTORIA: Estes animais nao querem se lavar, comer, dormir e ou ir para a escola! Mas, aos poucos, cada um deles vai descobrindo que se lavar, comer, dormir e ir a escola faz muito bem...para eles e para as criancas! Todo mundo sabe como e dificil fazer os pequenos entenderem a importancia de comer na hora certa, de tomar banho, de dormir quando necessario e se arrumar para ir para a escola. Os livros mostram uma formula divertida de ensinar tudo isso. OS LIVROS DA SERIE: Episodio 1: Estes animais... nao querem se lavar! Episodio 2: Estes animais... nao querem comer! Episodio 3: Estes animais... nao querem dormir! Episodio 4: Estes animais... nao querem ir a escola! Os livros bilingues estao disponiveis nas seguintes combinacoes linguisticas: Portugues/Ingles, Portugues/Frances, Portugues/Espanhol, Portugues/Italiano, Portugues/Sueco Ingles/Frances, Ingles/Espanhol, Ingles/Italiano, Ingles/Sueco. Os livros tambem podem, ainda, ser encontrados nos seguintes idiomas: Portugues, Ingles, Frances, Espanhol, Italiano e Sueco. Critica: "O Livro dos Animais e uma serie de livros ilustrados, cuidadosamente criados para o publico infantil. [...] Estes livros sao encantadores e a historia conta o que acontece quando os animais do enredo, assim como muitas criancas, nao querem comer, tomar banho, etc. Os livros sao apropriados para os pais lerem as criancas pequenas. Tambem, sao muito adequados aquelas que sao mais velhas, mas que estao aprendendo a ler em dois idiomas. Alem disso, os livros podem ate convence-los a tomar banho, comer toda a janta, ir dormir sem reclamar e arrumar-se depressa para ir a escola! A estrutura repetitiva auxilia as criancas no aprendizado de novo vocabulario e os desenhos ilustram bem o texto, ajudando a compreensao das palavras novas. Eu posso, facilmente, imaginar as criancas pedindo para os seus pais lerem as historias muitas e muitas vezes. E, como muitas criancas fazem com os seus livros favoritos, divertirem-se ao contar, elas mesmas, as historias que aprenderam de cor. As criancas que estao em fase de inventar e escrever as suas proprias historias podem, certamente, querer escrever uma versao customizada, usando a estrutura como exemplo. Eu acredito que as historias sejam adequadas tanto para a leitura em casa quanto para uso em sala de aula."

Basketball's "NEW" Passing Game Offense

The Passing Game is basically an offense which involves a screen or a series of screens set away from the ball, in an attempt to free the player without the ball for a scoring opportunity. Within our rules, we do not try to inhibit any individual's basic ability. Any player may attempt to shoot or drive at any time within the movement if he feels it is a percentage shot and we have rebounding strength. Our objectives are to get the percentage shot off of a perimeter fill, a cut back (flash), a back-off (flare), or a score-off of an individual move. And in this book we show you how we accomplish this in a fresh new way.

Her estate manager is not there and she cannot pay until the man comes back the day after tomorrow. The boor decides he will camp out in her salon till she forks over the money.
