Book Balancing Your Orbit

Download or read book Balancing Your Orbit written by Kathy Kerston and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-09 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Astrologer Kathy Kerston presents two profound principles in Balancing Your Orbit: the planets beam energies to Earth, and we can respond positively or negatively to these energies. Starting with the belief that your birth chart is a script you wrote, Kerston believes your chart's scenarios describe what you can choose to experience. By exercising free will, you can direct your life-but only when you choose to take on that responsibility. Planetary energy has a profound affect on our lives and is often based on our programmed belief systems. By starting with your charts and entering the realm of imagination, you can choose to draw to yourself into the positive energy of any planet. In a playful but powerful way, Kerston describes each known planets' personality using Greek mythological profiles. These profiles explain how to take control of your life by changing your belief systems. "The universe is holding all that you have wished for in escrow for you," said Abraham through Ester Hicks (Law of Attraction). It's yours to claim. You will come to view the planets as your personal assistants, sending you positive things and circumstances. You'll refer to this practical, enjoyable book time and again to supplement your astrological studies.

Book Orbiting the Giant Hairball

Download or read book Orbiting the Giant Hairball written by Gordon MacKenzie and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 1998-04-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creativity is crucial to business success. But too often, even the most innovative organization quickly becomes a "giant hairball"--a tangled, impenetrable mass of rules, traditions, and systems, all based on what worked in the past--that exercises an inexorable pull into mediocrity. Gordon McKenzie worked at Hallmark Cards for thirty years, many of which he spent inspiring his colleagues to slip the bonds of Corporate Normalcy and rise to orbit--to a mode of dreaming, daring and doing above and beyond the rubber-stamp confines of the administrative mind-set. In his deeply funny book, exuberantly illustrated in full color, he shares the story of his own professional evolution, together with lessons on awakening and fostering creative genius. Originally self-published and already a business "cult classic", this personally empowering and entertaining look at the intersection between human creativity and the bottom line is now widely available to bookstores. It will be a must-read for any manager looking for new ways to invigorate employees, and any professional who wants to achieve his or her best, most self-expressive, most creative and fulfilling work.

Against his grandfather’s dying wish, Finn has resurrected Toy Shop, adding new characters, and the strip is more popular than ever, bringing in fan letters, merchandising deals, and talk of TV specials. Finn has even started dating again. When a terrorist attack decimates Atlanta, killing half a million souls, Finn begins blurting things in a strange voice beyond his control. The voice says things only his grandfather could know. Countless other residents of Atlanta are suffering a similar bizarre affliction. Is it mass hysteria, or have the dead returned to possess the living? Finn soon realizes he has a hitcher within his skin... his grandfather. And Grandpa isn’t terribly happy about the changes Finn has been making to Toy Shop. Together with a pair of possessed friends, an aging rock star, and a waitress, Finn races against time to find a way to send the dead back to Deadland... or die trying!

But the illusion of their perfect life is shattered when Diana learns she has developed an inoperable tumor, and all too quickly Steve becomes a grieving young widower. Guided by Dianas strong spirit, he leaves the practice of medicine to become a celebrated talk show host. Steve, a passionate advocate for change at every level of government, soon becomes a nuisance to the White House. He suspects that the president would do anything to silence him or make him simply disappear. Then an experience beyond Steves imagination soon provides him with a unique opportunity to help his planet. The president of the United States is contacted by the inhabitants of the distant planet of Centor and learns the Centorians will invite just three humans to a meeting that could change the course of human history. The information promised by the Centorians may lead humanity to a new level of enlightenment. To her chagrin, however, the president is confounded when one of those invited is Steve Coulter. Later, on his trip into space, Steve wakes from what seems to be a dream, alone in a sterile room that is seven trillion miles from home. Now a guest of the Centorians, a race of hyperintelligent extraterrestrials, Steve and his two companions learn much from their alien hosts; but they struggle to comprehend the experience and the opportunity set before them. Upon returning from this unprecedented, yet exciting, encounter, Steve must decide what he will do with this new information. Will he continue on with his previous life or try to convince the leaders of the world to follow the advice of the Centorians?

Book Eccentric Orbits

Download or read book Eccentric Orbits written by John Bloom and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2016-06-07 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Good corporate drama . . . an enlightening narrative of how new communications infrastructures often come about.” —The Economist, “A Book of the Year 2016” In the early 1990s, Motorola developed a revolutionary satellite system called Iridium that promised to be its crowning achievement. Its constellation of 66 satellites in polar orbit was a mind-boggling technical accomplishment, surely the future of communication. The only problem was that Iridium the company was a commercial disaster. Only months after launching service, it was $11 billion in debt, burning through $100 million a month and crippled by baroque rate plans and agreements that forced calls through Moscow, Beijing, Fucino, Italy, and elsewhere. Bankruptcy was inevitable—the largest to that point in American history. And when no real buyers seemed to materialize, it looked like Iridium would go down as just a “science experiment.” That is, until Dan Colussy got a wild idea. Colussy, a former head of Pan-Am now retired and working on his golf game in Palm Beach, heard about Motorola’s plans to “de-orbit” the system and decided he would buy Iridium and somehow turn around one of the biggest blunders in the history of business. Impeccably researched and wonderfully told, Eccentric Orbits is a rollicking, unforgettable tale of technological achievement, business failure, the military-industrial complex, and one of the greatest deals of all time. “Deep reporting put forward with epic intentions . . . a story that soars and jumps and dives and digresses . . . [A] big, gutsy, exciting book.” —The Wall Street Journal, “A Top 10 Nonfiction Book of 2016” “Spellbinding . . . A tireless researcher, Bloom delivers a superlative history . . . A tour de force.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Book THE CASE FOR GOD   Belief verses Science

Download or read book THE CASE FOR GOD Belief verses Science written by Gregory A. Rogers and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the twenty-first century, there is a battle raging over the hearts and minds of our people, especially for the education of our children in scientific fields. Christians have become concerned that science has appeared to be a realm meant primarily for nonbelievers. This book was written to help change that perception! Dr. G.A. Rogers is a former senior flight surgeon for the Department of Defense and NASA. He was the chief of aerospace medicine at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, where he had astronauts among his patients. He has been trained by a great variety of scientific personnel at locations ranging from medical school to Kennedy Space Center. Dr. Rogers has taken his combined educational concepts and applied them to both the Holy Bible and the universe. He considers science to be the very expression of God's work within our universe. He takes equations like E = mC2 to reveal the beauty of our existence. He looks into the concept of Black Holes as principles for our actions, as revealed in the Bible itself. His approach to the scientific evidence even reveals how the space-time continuum from the Big Bang was derived by God! The reader will walk through the halls of science to learn how scientists from Sir Isaac Newton to Albert Einstein and beyond have discovered amazing technological concepts. Then see how these scientific breakthroughs actually relate to the Word of God for our time and even to prophecies of the Last Days! This book was designed to illuminate the mind of those who trust in God as the Creator of all things!
