Book excerpt: Much is known about the Epic of Gilgamesh, the Armageddon, and the Mayan end of times. Only a few know of the Great Reversal of the Magudans. A handful of shamans among this forgotten community of Africa heard the gong of the End sounding. That would be the beginning of their battle for the reversal of the fate of the world. Elsewhere, Goddess Isis is calling through Atete Ayyantu for the rise of the Seven Dancing Queens of Africas ancient Oracles. Many may rise in the name of Isis, but only her true daughters and sons could deliver the world from its impending doom. Ayyantu should awaken the Nyabinghi and the other priestess queens. To ensure the revival and survival of their people across the End, these Seven should rescue the Thirsty Cup from a ferocious medium of Maguda. The League of the Monarchs of the World headed by the Ethiopian Lion of Judah, Mengistu the military junta, Jalala the Magician, and China are also hunting for the Cup. Those who grab the Cup would be the superpowers of the New World. This battle, which involves the dead and the half-dead, would be peerless in the memory of the three winds.

Download or read book On Being Awesome written by Nick Riggle and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this lively treatise, pro-skater-turned-philosopher Nick Riggle presents a theory of awesomeness (and its opposite, suckiness) that’s both sharply illuminating and more timely than ever “Nick Riggle’s fun book is ‘awesome’ by its own definition. But don’t miss its profound ambition, which is to show how philosophy unearths the structure of ordinary language, defines the meaning of life in routine business, and poses the question of how best to live.” —Aaron James, author of Assholes: A Theory We all know people who are awesome and people who suck, but what do we really mean by these terms? Have you ever been chill or game? Do you rock or rule? If so, then you’re tapped into the ethics of awesomeness. Awesome people excel at creating social openings that encourage expressions of individuality and create community. And if you’re a cheapskate, self-promoter, killjoy, or douchebag, you’re the type of person who shuts social openings down. Put more simply: You suck. From street art to folk singers, Proust to the great etiquette writer Emily Post, President Obama to former Los Angeles Dodger Glenn Burke, Riggle draws on pop culture, politics, history, and sports to explore the origins of awesome, and delves into the nuances of what it means to suck and why it’s so important to strive for awesomeness. An accessible and entertaining lens for navigating the ethics of our time, On Being Awesome provides a new and inspiring framework for understanding ourselves and creating meaningful connections in our everyday lives.
