Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When God's Word is hid in our heart, it makes it hard for the devil to wage war in our minds. A Word-filled heart will empower hands to do right, eyes to see right, feet to walk right, ears to hear right, and minds to think right. The heart is the dressing room for words and emotions, which in turn are acted out on the stage of life. Dr. Clarence Talley, Sr. offers these golden nuggets of wisdom to those who are seeking the truth that can only be found in God's Word. Talley contends that life must be faced with a power that is beyond anything man possesses. That power is found only in God's Word. It is His wisdom personified in Jesus Christ that safeguards us from the wiles of the devil. Without wisdom we cannot handle life. Life will handle us. It will beat us up. It will push us over. It will subdue our efforts. As a result, we need Godly wisdom: wisdom to understand ourselves, wisdom to build better families, wisdom to get along with others, wisdom to handle our personal finances, wisdom to handle emotional ups and downs, and wisdom to live holy lives. Between the following pages lie golden nuggets of wisdom that will benefit the soul, spirit, and body. Access them, download them, and put them to use. Golden nuggets of wisdom

Download or read book Gold written by Mary Hill and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2000-02-28 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discovery of gold in 1848 catapulted California into statehood and triggered environmental, social, political, and economic events whose repercussions are still felt today. Mary Hill combines her scientific training with a flair for storytelling to present the history of gold in California from the distant geological past through the wild days of the Gold Rush to the present. The early days of gold fever drew would-be miners from around the world, many enduring great hardships to reach California. Once here, they found mining to be backbreaking work and devised machines to help recover gold. These machines pawed gravel from river bottoms and tore apart mountainsides, wreaking environmental havoc that silted rivers, ruined farmlands, and provoked the world's first environmental conflict settled in the courts. Native Americans were nearly wiped out by invading miners or their diseases, and many Spanish-speaking settlers—Californios—were pushed aside. Hill writes of gold's uses in today's world for everything from coins to coffins, gourmet foods to spacecraft. Her comprehensive overview of gold's impact on California includes illustrated explanations of geology and mining in nontechnical language as well as numerous illustrations, maps, and photographs.

In the nest was an eagle's egg. The boy took the egg home and kept it in a hen's nest under a setting hen. After being in the nest under the setting hen, the eagle's egg finally hatched, along with the chicken eggs.The baby eaglet played with the baby chicks and for some time thought he was just a chicken. Now since the eagle believed he was a chicken he acted like a chicken. He did not try to fly, but remained with the chickens in the fenced-in chicken yard. As the eagle grew bigger and stronger he somehow began to realize he was different than a chicken. He told the chickens that he is feeling an urge to fly and he believes that if he tries he would eventually fly. But the chickens laughed at him and said that he has been living with them since his birth and so he does not have any extra abilities, such as that of flying.The eagle agreed to their rational point and did not even give a try to fly (his inner urge/passion). And in the end he died like a chicken, though he was bound to fly high in the sky.DEFUSE THE ANGER BOMBAnger is always thought to be a negative thing to have. Indeed it is, unless you know what to do with it. In anger, our tongue always works faster than our brain so it is best to keep our mouth shut. In these times of great stress, it's always best to keep yourself busy, to plough your anger and your energy into something positive.Anger can be a great motivator too. Because often, a success is a failure that finally gets mad. Anger is defined as a state of insanity that if used constructively can make impossible things possible; but if left unchecked can prove to be very destructive. Holding on to anger is just like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else, but actually you are the one who gets burned. While seeking revenge from someone, dig two graves - one for yourself (Douglas Horton).Think about this, if a small thing has the power to make you angry, does that not indicate something about your size?The greatest remedy I found for anger is delay - delay in action and speec

Download or read book Gold Coins of the World 9th edition written by Arthur L. Friedberg and published by Coin & Currency Institute. This book was released on 2017-01-05 with total page 835 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique and indispensable reference work Unsurpassed in content and scope When the first edition of Gold Coins of the World made its debut in 1958, it forever changed the way gold coins were collected, cataloged, traded, and priced. For the first time, one book provided a reliable guide for a subject which previously required an often expensive investment in multiple volumes of literature, some of it rare and antique, and much of it badly out-of-date. With the publication of this pioneering work, Robert Friedberg (1912-1963) established himself as an international icon in the field of numismatic literature. This book, and the 'Friedberg Numbering System' he developed became then, and is still today, the internationally-recognized standard for systematically identifying any gold coin ever made. From just 384 pages in 1958, Gold Coins of the World has expanded to the extent that it now contains more than triple the information of its ancestor. It still stands alone as the first and only book to describe, catalog and price two millennia of gold, platinum, and palladium coin issues from across the globe. From the first coins of the ancient Greeks to the most recently-issued modern commemoratives, they are all here, an astonishing compilation of more than 21,000 individual coin listings accompanied by over 8,000 actual-size photographs. The prices have been completely updated, for the most part raised substantially, to reflect the current market. Entire sections have been expanded, many illustrations have been added or improved, and hundreds of new discoveries and recent issues have been included for the first time. Arthur Friedberg, president of the International Association of Professional Numismatists from 2001 to 2007 and now its Honorary President, and Ira Friedberg, have completely revised and expanded their late father's work. They have had the valuable assistance and cooperation of a who's who of the leading numismatists on every continent in bringing this edition to fruition. For the numismatist, banker, economist, historian, institution of higher learning, or a fancier of the noble metal in all its forms, Gold Coins of the World is a book for every library, public and private.

Download or read book Searching for Pitt Lake Gold written by Fred Braches and published by Heritage House Publishing Co. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A smart, concise analysis of the legend of Slumach’s Gold, which strives to uncover the truth behind this mythical gold deposit said to be hidden north of Pitt Lake. British Columbia is gold country, and with gold comes legends that have been passed down through the generations. Ever since the Fraser Canyon gold rush, prospectors and adventurers have been looking for a mysterious, exceedingly rich gold deposit in the watershed of Pitt Lake, first mentioned in a small newspaper entry in November 1869. Over time, as the story spread, the man at the centre of this legendary gold start was endowed with the identity of Slum.ook, better known as Slumach, a Katzie man who was ultimately hanged in 1891 for shooting and killing another man in anger. The legend of the gold grew into that of an exceedingly rich deposit known as "Slumach's gold." This book presents, unravels, and dissects the legends of the gold of Pitt Lake, and tells the stories of some of the daredevils and venerable prospectors who searched for the mythical gold at their peril.

Download or read book Archaeology at La Isabela written by Kathleen A. Deagan and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, Kathleen Deagan and Jose Maria Cruxent present detailed technical documentation of their ten-year archaeological excavation of La Isabela, America's first colony. The artefacts and material remains of the town offer rich material for comparative research into Euro-American cultural and material development during the crucial transition from the medieval era to the Renaissance. The period when La Isabela was in existence witnessed great innovation and change in many areas of technology. The archaeological evidence of La Isabela's architecture, weaponry, numismatics, pottery and metallurgy can be precisely dated, helping to chart the sequence of this change and revealing much that is new about late medieval technology. The authors' archaeological research also provides a foundation for their insights into the reasons for the demise of La Isabela.
