Download or read book Henri s Mantle written by Chris R. Glaser and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Glaser is clearly cloaked in Henri's mantle as he reflects on specific gems from Henri's works. The reader is treated to the enriched nourishment of Henri's thought enhanced by the insights and experience of his long-standing friend and colleague. Henri's Mantle is real food for the spiritual journey." --Sue Mosteller, CSJ, literary Executrix of the Henri Nouwen Estate "Henri's Mantle is a cloak of many colors, interwoven with rich seams of theological insight and underlain with a perceptive appreciation of Nouwen's work. Glaser's personal reminiscences of his mentor are particularly compelling, allowing us to look over the author's shoulder and observe the intimate world of a spiritual master. But through these meditations, we are given a glimpse into the soul of Glaser himself--and sense he, too, is close to God." --Michael Ford, author of Wounded Prophet: A Portrait of Henri J. M. Nouwen and Father Mychal Judge: An Authentic American Hero "Henri Nouwen's trapeze troupe trusted the firm grip of God's catching commitment to all of us: 'You are my beloved, on you my favor rests.' In this book, Glaser gracefully glides across various spiritual themes to illustrate God's grasp and how much Glaser is a full-fledged spiritual acrobat." --Laurent Nouwen, Henri's youngest brother "By weaving information about his own life and spiritual journey, Glaser shows how Henri's mantle has been gratefully received by him, and how eager he is to pass it on. This is a fine addition to the ever-expanding Nouwen collection." --Wendy Wilson Greer, President, Henri Nouwen Society "In life and death, Henri was in the vestibule of on incomplete Church and on unfinished world, welcoming others and their own experiences of God and justice. Glaser brilliantly evokes our own weaknesses, guiding us to keep our faith in the strength and love of the Divine Catcher who will lift us up and carry us home." --Walter Sanchez, Universidad de Chile

Book excerpt: "He relearned to do the things that many of us take for granted, including eating, dressing, and walking. Jason struggled to retake control of his life and fought against a system that is not friendly for those with disabilities. It is with tenacity for life, justice, his family, and his belief in a higher power that kept his will to fight when many others may have quit. We are extremely proud of Jason!" -Dr. Jeffrey Berliner, DO, TIRR Memorial Hermann Sometimes you have to lose the life of your dreams to live your God-ordained destiny. What do you do when you've lost everything? How do you rebuild your life when you've lost the desire to live? These questions are at the core of From Zero to a Hundred, a story of hope and inspiration. In From Zero to a Hundred, Jason Roy, a medically retired police officer turned inspirational speaker, details how he survived two near-death experiences and pushed through the pain to discover his purpose. Through life-altering spinal cord injuries, paralysis, bouts with depression, and suicidal thoughts, Jason fought to remain steadfast in his faith in God, accept his new reality, and live his God-ordained destiny. He acknowledges that fear and doubt are normal responses to tragedy, but encourages us to step out on faith and be willing to lose everything to ultimately live the life of our dreams.

Download or read book Omnidirectional Vision Systems written by Luis Puig and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work focuses on central catadioptric systems, from the early step of calibration to high-level tasks such as 3D information retrieval. The book opens with a thorough introduction to the sphere camera model, along with an analysis of the relation between this model and actual central catadioptric systems. Then, a new approach to calibrate any single-viewpoint catadioptric camera is described. This is followed by an analysis of existing methods for calibrating central omnivision systems, and a detailed examination of hybrid two-view relations that combine images acquired with uncalibrated central catadioptric systems and conventional cameras. In the remaining chapters, the book discusses a new method to compute the scale space of any omnidirectional image acquired with a central catadioptric system, and a technique for computing the orientation of a hand-held omnidirectional catadioptric camera.
