Download or read book FUBAR F ed Up Beyond All Recognition written by Gordon L. Rottman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-03-15 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entertaining book detailing the military slang of World War II. The soldier slang of World War II was as colourful as it was evocative. It could be insulting, pessimistic, witty, and even defeatist. From 'spam bashers' to 'passion wagons' and 'roof pigs' to 'Hell's Ladies,' the World War II fighting man was never short of words to describe the people and events in his life. FUBAR: F***ed Up Beyond All Recognition takes a frank look at the British, Commonwealth, American, German, Japanese and Russian slang used by the men on the ground, and shows how, even in the heat of battle, they somehow managed to retain their sense of humour, black though it might have been.

The difficulties you face right now may be linked to your past, but your past doesn’t have to control your present or future. “Katherine’s journey expresses the prophetic revelation of coming out of the wilderness. I believe this book is a catalyst for transformation.” –John Harke, Passion Ministries “This book reaches into the psychology of men in ways that traditional therapy falls short.

Lassiter Sr., Love Unlimited Church “Katherine is one of the most influential leaders, powerful speakers, progressive thinkers and writers in last 20 years.” –Bishop John Mark Richardson Sr., New Journey Jurisdiction

Download or read book Gerulata The Lamps written by Robert Frecer and published by Charles University in Prague, Karolinum Press. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What should a catalogue of archaeological material contain? This book is a comprehensive index of 210 lamps from the Roman fort of Gerulata (present-day Bratislava-Rusovce, Slovakia) and its adjoining civilian settlement. The lamps were excavated during the last 50 years from the houses, cemeteries, barracks and fortifications of this Roman outpost on the Limes Romanus and span almost three centuries from AD 80 to AD 350. For the first time, they are published in full and in color with detailed analysis of lamp types, workshop marks and discus scenes. Roman lamps were a distinctive form of interior lighting that burned liquid fuel seeped through a wick to create a controlled flame. Relief decorations have made them appealing objects of minor art in modern collections, but lamps were far more than that – with a distribution network spanning three continents, made by a multitude of producers and brands, with their religious imagery depicting forms of worship, and as symbols of study and learning, Roman lamps are an effective tool that can be used by the modern scholar to discover the ancient economy, culture, craft organization and Roman provincial life.

Download or read book Authenticity in Architectural Heritage Conservation written by Katharina Weiler and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-01 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book contributes to a recontextualization of authenticity by investigating how this value is created, reenacted, and assigned. Over the course of the last century, authenticity figured as the major parameter for the evaluation of cultural heritage. It was adopted in local and international charters and guidelines on architectural conservation in Europe, South and East Asia. Throughout this period, the concept of authenticity was constantly redefined and transformed to suit new cultural contexts and local concerns. This volume presents colonial and postcolonial discourses, opinions, and experiences in the field of architectural heritage conservation and the use of site-specific practices based on representative case studies presented by art historians, architects, anthropologists, and conservationists from Germany, Nepal, India, China, and Japan. With more than 180 illustrations and a collection of terminologies in German, English, Sanskrit, Hindi, Nevari and Nepali, classical Chinese and standard Mandarin, and Japanese, these cross-cultural investigations document the processual re-configuration of the notion of authenticity. They also show that approaches to authenticity can be specified with key analytical categories from transcultural studies: appropriation, transformation, and, in some cases, refusal.

A thousand miles away in Wales, fourteen-year-old Garyn learns a disturbing secret. It will drive him on a crusade of his own: a quest to avenge his family, save his brother and recover the holiest relic in Christendom. As the Crusades ignite around him, Garyn learns this is a time of brutality and chivalry; an era with no place for the weak... In Shadows of Kings: 1274. War is brewing between Wales and England. Henry III is dead. His son, Edward Longshanks, is on his way back from the Crusades to claim the crown and impose his iron will on a weakened country. In South Wales, two brothers, Garyn and Geraint, attempt to rebuild their lives after a terrifying ordeal in Acre. Desperate to heal old wounds and provide for their futures, the appearance of an old enemy tears them apart once more and forces them onto different paths. Meanwhile, the nobles of North Wales, nervous and frustrated at the inaction of their leader, make a daring pact to replace him with a figurehead to unite the warring factions against the English prince. Sword of Liberty: 1294. After decades of fighting, Edward Longshanks of England has cemented his rule over Wales following the death of Prince Llewellyn, undertaking a vast castle-building programme across the land. A new resistance is rising but its factions squabble and bicker, dashing any serious hopes of rebellion. Rumour reaches Garyn, now leader of a mercenary band called the Blaidd, of the fabled Sword of Macsen. With it, he could finally unite the Welsh. But finding it will not be easy... Ring of Steel: 1294. The Welsh rebellion spreads like wildfire. Caernarfon Castle, a fortress in Edward Longshanks’ chain of fortifications around Wales known as the Ring of Steel, has fallen to Madog and the rebellion. In the south, Garyn languishes in a dungeon with only days left to live. It seems his fate is sealed. As the four main warlords of Wales join forces to wreak havoc amongst the English settlers, rampaging across the country, Edward’s castles fall one by one before their onslaught.
