Book excerpt: Raised inside the secret society of a hidden cult, Ace Myers has dedicated herself to exposing the crimes of her enemies…an endeavor she expects will cost her her life. Before her time runs out, there’s a wrong she must set right…a mission that causes her to cross paths with Valentino Parker and his team of counterterrorist operatives. Gorgeous, seductive, and way out of her reach, Val shows her another side of life, one of light and hope and possibilities, that wakes her heart and makes her dream of things that can never be—not in her world, not in her lifetime. Val Parker is pulling apart the mysteries woven around him, the puppet strings that prescribe his choices, which are slowly choking him. Nothing in his life was truly as he believed it, and his discoveries may cost him everything he holds dear—his family, his team, and Ace Myers…the one woman he wants to keep forever.

Download or read book Tasty Jesus written by Bryan Hurlbutt and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tasty Jesus deals with key cultural, philosophical, and theological representations of Christ that find expression in the North American church. Each of these respective cameos of Christ has colored the Christological understanding of many believers in the local assembly. We live in a society deeply embedded in a mindless individualism that is more concerned with a malleable Christ that suits their present taste than the Jesus of both the Bible and historic Christian orthodoxy. This book is at once a critique, a call, and a consideration. It is a critique of particular visions of Jesus that are embraced by specific subcultures, philosophical camps, and theological perspectives. It is a call to the local church, both its attendees and leadership, intended to awaken them to the problems with these various portraits in hope of stirring them to respond appropriately. It is a consideration of the primary ideological counterpoints to each view of Jesus, and a postulation of the best manner in which to equip believers in the local assembly to respond to each distortion of Jesus and live under the lordship of the real Christ. It is time to get Jesus out from under the tyranny of our personal tastes!
Download or read book Razing Rafah written by Fred Abrahams and published by Human Rights Watch. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report show, most of the destruction in Rafah occurred along the Israel-controlled border between the Gaza Strip and Egypt. During regular nighttime raids and with little or no warning, Israel forces used armored caterpillar D9 bulldozers to raze blocks of homes at the edge of the camp, incrementally expanding a "buffer zone" that is currently up to three hundred meters wide. The pattern of destruction strongly suggests that Israeli forces demolished homes wholesale, regardless of whether they posed a specific threat, in violation of international law. In most cases Human Rights Watch found the destruction carried out in the absence of military necessity.

Book excerpt: Tattoo artist Keelie Jessup can handle that someone else has claimed the man of her dreams. She’s just not pleased with her remaining options… Keelie doesn’t believe in the “perfect man.” But the men who are worth the trouble are usually taken—like her business partner Zach Barnes. After a string of bad luck and the lost chance with Zach, Keelie decides that maybe flying solo—and living with suppressed desires—is the key to happiness. As a photographer, Zane Barnes has an eye for the human form, and his eyes can’t get enough of Keelie’s curves. Unfortunately, Keelie is like most women—always fawning over his little brother, Zach. Zane is about ready to give up, but then a few stolen moments at his brother's wedding have him thinking maybe there's a chance there after all. Now he just has to prove that the perfect man does exist...for her.

Download or read book The Ruins Lesson written by Susan Stewart and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How have ruins become so valued in Western culture and so central to our art and literature? Covering a vast chronological and geographical range, from ancient Egyptian inscriptions to twentieth-century memorials, Susan Stewart seeks to answer this question as she traces the appeal of ruins and ruins images, and the lessons that writers and artists have drawn from their haunting forms. Stewart takes us on a sweeping journey through founding legends of broken covenants and original sin, the Christian appropriation of the classical past, myths and rituals of fertility, images of decay in early modern allegory and melancholy, the ruins craze of the eighteenth century, and the creation of “new ruins” for gardens and other structures. Stewart focuses particularly on Renaissance humanism and Romanticism, periods of intense interest in ruins that also offer new frames for their perception. The Ruins Lesson looks in depth at the works of Goethe, Piranesi, Blake, and Wordsworth, each of whom found in ruins a means of reinventing art. Ruins, Stewart concludes, arise at the boundaries of cultures and civilizations. Their very appearance depends upon an act of translation between the past and the present, between those who have vanished and those who emerge. Lively and engaging, The Ruins Lesson ultimately asks what can resist ruination—and finds in the self-transforming, ever-fleeting practices of language and thought a clue to what might truly endure.

Book excerpt: Bald nach Erscheinen des Bandes "Geschwülste" "Geschwiilste" 1956 1956 wurde wurde deutlich, deutlich, daß daB dies dies nur ein Anfang gewesen sein konnte. Die grundlegenden Beitrage Beiträge dieses Bandes spiegelten den Wissensstand am Beginn des 6. Jahrzehnts wider. Sie waren wahrscheinlich zugleich die letzten echten Handbuchbeitrage Handbuchbeiträge zu diesem Thema: umfassend und enzyklopadisch enzyklopädisch vollständig vollstandig und trotzdem als Ganzes lesbar, verfaßt verfaBt von den damals besten Sachkennern in Deutschland. Inzwischen hat sich das Handbuch der Allgemeinen Pathologie gewandelt. Entsprechend der Weitung des Faches vergrößerten vergroBerten sich die Themen. Neben den Bänden Banden tiber über die die Organe Organe zum zum Hilfsmechanismus Hilfsmechanismus des des Stoffwechsels, Stoffwechsels, tiber über die die Zelle, Zelle, das das Altern Altern usw. usw. nahm sich der Geschwulstband vergleichsweise bescheiden aus. Das steht im Gegensatz zur Stellung des Geschwulstproblems in der Allgemeinen Pathologie. Die Krebsforschung erfuhr gerade in den letzten beiden Jahrzehnten einen vorher nicht geahnten Aufschwung, so daß daB eine eine enzyklopädische enzyklopadische Zusammenfassung Zusammenfassung heute heute den den Umfang Umfang des des gesamten gesamten Handbuches Handbuches einnehmen einnehmen würde wtirde -- wenn wenn sich sich jemand fände, rande, das das zu zu versuchen. versuchen. Und wenn der letzte Band gedruckt wäre, ware, ware wäre der erste hoffnungslos veraltet.
