Download or read book Timecraft written by Kelly Don Ford and published by Author House. This book was released on 2004-02-17 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The crack in the proverbial egg is about to bust open. One of the worlds most primordial enigmas is soon to be revealed. It is an object of timeless proportions. This mysterious adventure begins in the life of a young boy who discovers the location of a treasure worth more by far than any pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. As he grows up he wonders if its not just the mad ramblings of his grandfathers legacy. He deciphers the code and finds a sentient device that can show him all facets of any moment in time. Not a time machine but something far more profound, he views prehistory before Eden up to now and beyond as well as his eventful last day. The secrets it exposes and the event horizons it displays go beyond the distant reaches of space and time as we find the essence of truth imbedded in a fictional account. Its amazing revelations and significant implications can help mankind forge ahead into the unsettled future. We uncover among other things who the ETs really are, their leader and followers, as well as their purpose here on earth. Many other historical facts are not as they appear to be and we find blatant unexpected flaws in our most advanced sciences and theology. As he matures and handles this awesome responsibility, it transports us on an epoch journey we will never forget. The setting of the book takes place in a quaint little town in Texas between Brownwood and Cisco. It traverses back and forth from there to Dallas with pivotal moments in Seoul, Korea. The main characters name is cloaked to protect his true identity.

While apprenticed as a mechanic in a garage, he is fired for damaging a client’s car by driving faster than normal in trying it. He works as a salesman in a bookshop, becomes a self-taught philosopher among books, but soon has to lose his new job because he makes love to a female client inside the shop during the absence of his employer. Meanwhile his aunt falls and dies on the steps of the grandfather’s house she has usurped. Being the next of kin and the only relative of the old woman he inherits all the fortune she has stolen. Some of her servants charge him with killing her. Also he is suspected of having committed a number of crimes, including the use of carbombs to blow up schools and hospitals. His girl friend, too, is in trouble: she is accused by her brother-in-law of having murdered her husband. Both lovers take to flight on what his imagination saw as a ‘time craft’. The outcome: a tragedy he could neither forecast nor help.

But the human spirit proved to be undefeated, even suffering the loss of three lives the hero is tough enough to survive, transform to a God, fight back and repel the enemy. His adversary is an ancient incarnation of evil, his enemies are much numerous, but once defeated Gods in a Sacred Zone of Lazakria and robotic creatures from neutral space colonies are awaiting for his help.

Download or read book A Stitch in Time written by Aimee E. Newell and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2014-03-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing from 167 examples of decorative needlework—primarily samplers and quilts from 114 collections across the United States—made by individual women aged forty years and over between 1820 and 1860, this exquisitely illustrated book explores how women experienced social and cultural change in antebellum America. The book is filled with individual examples, stories, and over eighty fine color photographs that illuminate the role that samplers and needlework played in the culture of the time. For example, in October 1852, Amy Fiske (1785–1859) of Sturbridge, Massachusetts, stitched a sampler. But she was not a schoolgirl making a sampler to learn her letters. Instead, as she explained, “The above is what I have taken from my sampler that I wrought when I was nine years old. It was w[rough]t on fine cloth [and] it tattered to pieces. My age at this time is 66 years.” Situated at the intersection of women’s history, material culture study, and the history of aging, this book brings together objects, diaries, letters, portraits, and prescriptive literature to consider how middle-class American women experienced the aging process. Chapters explore the physical and mental effects of “old age” on antebellum women and their needlework, technological developments related to needlework during the antebellum period and the tensions that arose from the increased mechanization of textile production, and how gift needlework functioned among friends and family members. Far from being solely decorative ornaments or functional household textiles, these samplers and quilts served their own ends. They offered aging women a means of coping, of sharing and of expressing themselves. These “threads of time” provide a valuable and revealing source for the lives of mature antebellum women. Publication of this book was made possible in part through generous funding from the Coby Foundation, Ltd and from the Quilters Guild of Dallas, Helena Hibbs Endowment Fund.

Download or read book You Could Live a Long Time written by Lyndsay Green and published by Dundurn.com. This book was released on 2010-03-25 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you ready to live a long time, or do you dread it? Recent medical advances mean we could live longer, but doesn’t guarantee the quality of that life. In the words of one senior, "We’re not living longer, we’re dying longer." The good news is that it doesn’t have to be this way. Getting older doesn’t have to mean living a limited life. Author Lyndsay Green has interviewed forty successful seniors to talk not just about the problems of old age but its strength and benefits. These seniors were from all walks of life and from all over the country, living in Victoria, Vancouver, Ottawa, Montreal, Kingston and Halifax, aged 75 to 100. They have been identified as the self-reliant seniors we would like to be and they share their wisdom and strategies for independent and happy living. The book combines their advice with cutting edge research, to arrive at specific suggestions for what we should be doing now to prepare for old age, and includes resources to help us implement the advice, including: Money isn’t everything, and won’t cure ill-health or loneliness. Cultivate new friendships now. To keep your dignity, give up your pride. You need a work plan, instead of a retirement plan To keep a home, consider leaving your house. If you push too hard to stay young you’ll get old faster. The unique message is that we should not try to avoid old age. Instead of trying to do the impossible to stay forever young, Green comes to the radical conclusion that in order to get as much as possible out of our old age we will need to embrace it.

Download or read book TIME MANAGEMENT written by Ibrahim Al Faki and published by Dilariza. This book was released on with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All praise belongs only to Allah the Lord of hosts, thanks to His permission and mercy we are still given the opportunity to live the rest of our lives filled with His infinite gifts and sometimes we are rarely grateful, especially the gift of time and opportunity given to us after the gifts of faith and Islam given to us. Prayers and greetings may still be poured out to the great Prophet Muhammad (Peace and salutation be upon him), the prophet of the last days, the prophet of humanity who has taught us how to use and manage time in living life to be happy on earth and in the hereafter get heaven. I translated this book initially as an interest in psychology and in Arabic literature. After I read some of the books of the late Dr. Ibrahim Al Faki, I am of the view that his works are suitable for consumption by non-Arabic people. Several works have been translated by Zaman publishers into Indonesian language including Quwwat Al Tafkir. The book that is in front of this dear reader is a book that thoroughly explores the importance of managing time. The author uses a practical point of view that is easy to understand and understood by all circles. He gave concrete examples from the experiences of great people in the world including his own. In this book, you will be taught how to change our paradigm towards wrong times, how to use time as effectively as possible, and what are the things that prevent time that we should stay away from, as well as other important things that you will encounter. Hopefully this translation effort will be a little contribution that can change our mistaken paradigm about the importance of time. In this translation, of course, there are many shortcomings, therefore I am eagerly awaiting criticism and suggestions on the shortcomings of this translation both in terms of diction or grammar that is not quite right.

Download or read book Time and Migration written by Ken Chih-Yan Sun and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2021-05-15 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on longitudinal ethnographic work on migration between the United States and Taiwan, Time and Migration interrogates how long-term immigrants negotiate their needs as they grow older and how transnational migration shapes later-life transitions. Ken Chih-Yan Sun develops the concept of a "temporalities of migration" to examine the interaction between space, place, and time. He demonstrates how long-term settlement in the United States, coupled with changing homeland contexts, has inspired aging immigrants and returnees to rethink their sense of social belonging, remake intimate relations, and negotiate opportunities and constraints across borders. The interplay between migration and time shapes the ways aging migrant populations reassess and reconstruct relationships with their children, spouses, grandchildren, community members, and home, as well as host societies. Aging, Sun argues, is a global issue and must be reconsidered in a cross-border environment.
