Download or read book The Exciting History of Auto Racing written by Ross R. Olney and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two teen-agers back in early day France probably started it all by "borrowing" their Dad's "horseless carriages" and seeing which could go fastest. That was when highly respected doctors were certain that you would die if you moved faster than sixty miles an hour. The human body simply couldn't survive at that speed. Now, racers routinely go two hundred miles an hour, and drag racers go more than three hundred miles an hour in only a thousand feet. Auto racing is one of the most popular sports in the world. It is daring, dangerous, and exciting, and the winners often become millionaires. This book aimed at young adults is full of stories about racing as it describes the progress from the two kids to modern racing. The author has participated as a driver, photographer and journalist for many years, and has written a number of books on the subject.

Download or read book THE EXCITING TRUTH ABOUT THE END TIMES written by B. Vincent Shelton and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prophets of old warned that certain “key” end-time prophecies wouldn’t be revealed until “the time of the end.” For centuries, scholars have curiously wandered through a valley of endless supposition, hoping to stumble upon a proper understanding of “end-time” events. Hence, much of our teaching about the “latter days” is not strongly supported by scripture! Well, finally, the “the time of the end” has come! Today, we can scripturally prove the answers to questions like: • Will the Rapture of the Church occur before, during, or after “The Great Tribulation Period?” • Will the “Beast” really be a man? • Will the “Door of Salvation” still be open when the tribulation period ends? • Who or what are the “two-hundred million killer horsemen” in John’s vision? • Is our interpretation of end-time prophecy “emotionally obscured?” The scripturally sound answers to these questions will likely surprise you!

Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “Brilliant and enthralling.” —The Wall Street Journal A paradigm-shifting book from an acclaimed Harvard Medical School scientist and one of Time’s most influential people. It’s a seemingly undeniable truth that aging is inevitable. But what if everything we’ve been taught to believe about aging is wrong? What if we could choose our lifespan? In this groundbreaking book, Dr. David Sinclair, leading world authority on genetics and longevity, reveals a bold new theory for why we age. As he writes: “Aging is a disease, and that disease is treatable.” This eye-opening and provocative work takes us to the frontlines of research that is pushing the boundaries on our perceived scientific limitations, revealing incredible breakthroughs—many from Dr. David Sinclair’s own lab at Harvard—that demonstrate how we can slow down, or even reverse, aging. The key is activating newly discovered vitality genes, the descendants of an ancient genetic survival circuit that is both the cause of aging and the key to reversing it. Recent experiments in genetic reprogramming suggest that in the near future we may not just be able to feel younger, but actually become younger. Through a page-turning narrative, Dr. Sinclair invites you into the process of scientific discovery and reveals the emerging technologies and simple lifestyle changes—such as intermittent fasting, cold exposure, exercising with the right intensity, and eating less meat—that have been shown to help us live younger and healthier for longer. At once a roadmap for taking charge of our own health destiny and a bold new vision for the future of humankind, Lifespan will forever change the way we think about why we age and what we can do about it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a churchgoing Christian, I was always a bit skeptical if God really performs miracles but found out in a dramatic way that he indeed does, and when he does, a person's life will forever be changed. This is my story of how God touched me and consequently changed me and blessed me beyond human understanding. This is my story of God's interaction with me. It is a story of losing a wife to cancer, of finding a new one, and of my family suddenly expanding from three children to seven. It is a story of being called into the United Methodist's ministry at age thirty-eight with my salary going from $30,000 to $2,000. It also shows my struggle with the rumored immorality at the "God Box" in New York City. There is a saying in Methodism, "Don't make waves," but I did! That conflict alone is worth reading this book.
