Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover your complete horoscope for January 2019! Life can be chaotic and random. We are notoriously uncomfortable with the unknown. Our brains have evolved to filter out most of it, so what gets through are the threats, the changes, and the small things from which we are compelled to try make order, to look for a pattern, to construct a narrative -- to make sense of the senseless. Holiday Mathis is trying, like we all are, to find the pattern. With her 15 years of experience in astrology and antiquity, Holiday peers through life’s lens, connecting the dots and extracting meaning that will help readers know that they are seen and understood, and that we all belong together in this cluster of humanity, multitudes beneath one sky. With short and sweet insights, “Once More Around the Sun” serves to enlighten readers as to what to expect in their love lives, careers, health, relationships, financial futures and more this month.
Download or read book Once More Around the Park written by Roger Angell and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-05-01 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most celebrated baseball writer of our time has selected his favorite pieces from the last forty years to create Once More Around the Park, a definitive volume of his most memorable work. Mr. Angell includes writing never previously collected as well as selections from The Summer Game, Five Seasons, Late Innings, and Season Ticket. He brings back the extraordinary games, innings and performances that he has witnessed and written about so astutely and gracefully—“The Interior Stadium,” on the complex attractions of baseball; “In the Country,” on a friendship that began with a fan letter and took him far from the big stadiums and big money; “The Arm Talks,” on contemporary pitching strategy and the arrival of the split-finger delivery; and many others. Mr. Angell's conversations with past and present players and managers, scouts and coaches, rookies and Hall of Famers enhance his own expertise and critical appreciation, which define him as the game's most useful and ardent fan. “Angell resembles a pitcher with pinpoint control. As a chronicler of the game, he's in a class with Ring Lardner and Red Smith.”—Newsweek. “Angell's perceptions are fresh, vivid, and uncannily accurate.... Only a fan who cares this much could observe so carefully and write so eloquently.”—San Francisco Chronicle. “A triumph of art and grace.”—Chicago Tribune Book World. "In the course of a well-lived century, he established himself as. . .baseball's finest, fondest chronicler." —The New Yorker

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers of The Nightingale and Beneath a Scarlet Sky comes a gripping historical thriller set against a fully-realized WWII backdrop about the love a father has for his son and the lengths he is willing to go to find him, from a talented new voice in suspense. Rhys Gravenor, Great War veteran and Welsh sheep farmer, arrives in Paris in the midst of the city's liberation with a worn letter in his pocket that may have arrived years too late. As he follows the footsteps of his missing son across an unfamiliar, war-torn country, he struggles to come to terms with the incident that drove a wedge between the two of them. Joined by Charlotte Dubois, an American ambulance driver with secrets of her own, Rhys discovers that even as liberation sweeps across France, the war is far from over. And his personal war has only begun as he is haunted by memories of previous battles and hampered at every turn by danger and betrayal. In a race against time and the war, Rhys follows his son's trail from Paris to the perilous streets of Vichy to the starving mobs in Lyon to the treacherous Alps. But Rhys is not the only one searching for his son. In a race of his own, a relentless enemy stalks him across the country and will stop at nothing to find the young man first. The country is in tatters, no one is trustworthy, and Rhys must unravel the mystery of his son's wartime actions in the desperate hope of finding him before it's too late. Too late to mend the frayed bond between them. Too late to beg his forgiveness. Too late to bring him home alive.

Download or read book Once More Around the Sun written by Ruth Guillard and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-12-03 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ONCE MORE AROUND THE SUN is the sixth book of poems written by Ruth Fredericks Guillard. Each book has a slightly different "feel" to it; in this collection, there is a mellowness that comes of being comfortable with later years of life spent with her husband in their log home on a cove of the Damariscotta River in coastal Maine. The silence the author finds there is mirrored by the inner silence the reader feels in many of her poems. Nature lovers will enjoy the sensitive, often humorous, descriptions of the birds and animals that live their lives around, and sometimes in, the Guillard home as if it were part of the scenery.
Download or read book Once Around the Sun written by Ellen Evert Hopman and published by Destiny Books. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illustrated collection of stories and activities to celebrate traditional Pagan festivals and the changing of the seasons • Shares original stories, based on traditional folktales and designed to be read out loud, for each festival, such as Samhain, Yule, Imbolc, Beltaine, Lughnasad, the solstices, and the equinoxes • Includes traditional games, hands-on projects special to each holiday, and seasonal recipes to enjoy the tastes and smells of each feast day • Discusses the sacred symbolism, magical lore, and cultural practices within each story and the healing and magical uses for the trees and flowers featured Once upon a time, when only candles lit the inside of homes and people traveled on foot or by horse, the family would finish their supper, wash and dry the dishes, and sit down before the hearth to hear a tale. These tales were not only entertaining but also passed down both history and tradition to the next generation. And as the wheel of the year turned, these tales also served to teach the children about the holy days and festivals of the Pagan calendar and the Gods and Goddesses who reigned over the changing seasons. In this beautifully illustrated book, Ellen Evert Hopman shares rich stories drawn from traditional folktales, hands-on crafts, and seasonal recipes to help families and classrooms learn about and celebrate the traditional Pagan holy days and festivals of the sacred earth year. Designed to be read out loud, the stories are complemented with pronunciation guides and translations for foreign words. You will learn of the Cailleach, the ancient Goddess of winter; La Befana, the Italian new year’s witch; Eostre, the Goddess of spring; Wianki, the Polish feast of wreaths at midsummer; Yule among the Vikings; Garlic Sunday; and many other deities and celebrations. For each story, the author includes traditional games, hands-on projects special to the holiday--from crafting magical wands, runes, and brooms to flower crowns, Brighid’s Crosses, and corn dollies--as well as seasonal recipes, allowing families to enjoy the tastes, smells, and sounds associated with the feast days and celebrations.

Download or read book Circles Around the Sun written by Molly McCloskey and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An author attempts to uncover who her older brother was before schizophrenia took hold of him in this “clear-eyed and heartbreaking” memoir (Publishers Weekly). Molly McClosky’s brother Mike was fourteen when she was born. So far apart in age, she barely knew him before schizophrenia took hold of him at the age of twenty-three. Within a few years, Mike’s world began to fall apart. By the time Molly was old enough to begin to know him, Mike was heavily medicated and frequently delusional, living in hospitals or care homes or on the road. Years later, through reading an astonishing archive of letters preserved by her mother and grandmother, and interviewing old friends of Mike's, Molly began to piece together a picture of her brother's life, before and after the illness struck—the story of how a gifted and well-liked student and athlete was overtaken by a terrible illness that rendered him unrecognizable. Now she tells that story, which is also the story of her own demons and of the ways in which a seemingly perfect family can slowly fall apart, and in the end, regroup.

Download or read book Bede The Reckoning of Time written by Beda (Venerabilis.) and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the patristic age until the Gregorian calendar reform of 1582, computus -- the science of time reckoning and art of calendar construction -- was a matter of intense concern. Bede's The Reckoning of Time (De temporum ratione) was the first comprehensive treatise on this subject and the model and reference for all subsequent teaching discussion and criticism of the Christian calendar. It is a systematic exposition of the Julian solar calendar and the Paschal table of Dionysius Exiguus, with their related formulae for calculating dates. But it is more than a technical handbook. Bede sets calendar lore within a broad scientific framework and a coherent Christian concept of time, and incorporates themes as diverse as the theory of tides and the doctrine of the millennium. This translation of the full text of The Reckoning of Time includes an extensive historical introduction and a chapter-by-chapter commentary. It will interest historians of medieval science, theology, and education, Bede scholars and Anglo-Saxonists, liturgists, and Church historians. It will also serve as an accessible introduction to computus itself. Generations of medieval computists nourished their expertise in Bede's orderly presentation; modern scholars in quest of safe passage through this complex terrain can hope for no better guide.
