The Bible points out, firstly, that the Sabbath was God's exclusive
sign between Him and the Nation of Israel. No other group, race or
nation can make claim on the Sabbath unless they are Israelites or
Jews. Secondly, the Sabbath is only a shadow of things to come. An
object or a substance has cast that shadow and that Substance is
the Person of Jesus Christ who invites one and all when He said,
"Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give
you REST." He is the true SABBATH. If we rest on a day, we cannot
rest. If we try to concentrate on the law, we will be judged by the
law.
When Hurricane Katrina, the worst natural disaster in the history
of the United States, hit the Gulf Coast on August 29, 2005, few
people could believe the horror and destruction that would unfold
in the days that followed. As Communications Director for the City
of New Orleans, Sally Forman went to work two days before the storm
approached with no indication that she or the city were in harm's
way. But within 72 hours, hurricane force winds were shattering
windows throughout the downtown hotel where she had bunkered down
with other members of the City Hall Executive Staff. The next ten
days, chronicled here, became an unforgettable time in our nation's
history. With almost 2,000 deaths, destruction covering four states
and a million and a half people needing shelter, the world
responded quickly and fiercely. Over 75 countries and 80 percent of
Americans contributed to the relief of hurricane survivors and aid
workers. Throughout the world, Katrina raised questions of humanity
and exposed the vulnerabilities we still face as a nation. Through
this personal and historical journal, Forman offers an insider's
view of life in a disaster zone where communications and resources
were practically non-existent. She also examines her own role and
the role of other officials as wide-ranging disaster struck a major
American city.
Each WORD from God is like an acorn fallen from the oak tree. An
acorn doesn't look like much, little and hard crusted However,
within this acorn lies all the DNA to become a mighty tree. In this
creative endeavor, I have compiled 40 words which I feel have the
power to challenge, affirm, and strengthen every seeker who is
willing to travel this journey. These words are not to be read from
beginning to end like any other book. Rather prayerfully ask God
for which WORD you NEED. And when guided to that word, let it soak
into your heart. Let it breathe within you. Live with it for
awhile. I spent a whole season of Lent with the word GLORY, or a
summer with the word TRUST. This resource has helped me to "crawl
into the acorn" and really dwell with the word. Inside, I found a
sacred place where my spirit would find quiet rest and adventure.
When all else around me was confused and agitated ... here I would
find peace ... and like the acorn ... I grew May these words bring
you ever closer to the ONE who created you and desires for you more
than you could ever imagine In reading the introduction to this
wonderful book, I was visibly moved by the words I was reading.
There is a power and a peace in opening a page of Patti's book and
letting it take the reader into a quiet place. "Come with me by
yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest." (Mk.6:31) This is a
book that is like a well of spiritual refreshment ready for you to
dive into its soothing depths at any reading. Tom Peterson

Dr. Weinkauf provides a complete overview of Ngaio Marsh's crime

Thickens," published posthumously in 1982.
This superb edition contains two of Aristotle's greatest writings
in authoritative translations. The Rhetoric is translated by
Cambridge scholar John Henry Freese, and The Poetics is translated
by Oxford scholar of classics Ingram Bywater. Aristotle's legendary
treatise on speech explains and instructs on the powers of oratory
to move and persuade people. Composed amid the popular Greek
culture, in which aspiring and reigning politicians would perfect
the oratorical arts to influence voting and their subjects,
Rhetoric is a summation of an art whose poignancy and power could
change the face of an entire society. The Poetics of Aristotle sets
out the essential nature of drama and the performing arts. Each
chapter deals with a different element of drama and its
composition, discussing the process by which Greek society had come
to define its written literature.
The Army version "Map Reading and Land Navigation" is the simplest

for teaching Boy Scouts how to use a compass.
Author's Corner My name is Jennifer V. Spersrud and I am 42 years
old. I have celiac disease. That might sound awful to you, but not
for me My regional gluten-free life style books will be a wonderful
resource to inform you of gluten-free supermarkets to gluten-free
bakeries in your entire region. Having celiac disease is more than
just an allergy to gluten, but it is a lifestyle change. In these
books I have included points to help make life easier for those
people living with gluten allergies; for example, eating out at
restaurants. You need to be proactive in dealing with this
situation. For example, when eating out at restaurants, be sure to
ask the right questions: 1.Do you have a gluten-free menu? If the
answer is no, I myself would not eat there. Taking a chance of
receiving gluten is not worth it to me. 2.Does the kitchen chef
have a section on the grill/stove for gluten-free items? This is a
crucial question because if it is at all possible that gluten can
reach the clean area of the grill, you should not risk ingesting
it. But as I said you need to ask the specific questions to get the
right answers. 3.Does the kitchen staff prepare meals in stainless
pots and pans with stainless cooking tools? This is important
because plastic utensils absorb the wheat and other
gluten-containing elements. These are just a few questions that can
help you learn to cope with eating out, and continuing your normal
life. I say normal because having a gluten-allergy is just another
part of your life and that should not hold you back from any part
of your previous lifestyle. My resource books cover a lot of
knowledge on gluten-free lifestyle; let's do this together
Sincerely, Jennifer
You already know that logistics is hard, it should not be, but it
just is. The key components to supply and movement consist of
receive, store, issue, and move. It should be that simple. Bottom
line: it just is not that simple. There are too many moveable parts
where the synergy of the operation could provide a scenario where
the combined requirements needed to sustain a theater are greater
than the sum of their individual effects or capabilities. . This
book outlines some of these logistical components and their
doctrinal relationship to the operation, as well as provides some
new ideas. . The chapters are formatted in a fashion that offer the
reader the doctrinal concept that the operation or function is
based on, and then presents new theories on how to better execute
the logistical function or capability as it relates to the
operation. . The goal is to discuss those hard logistical topics
and their conception to improve the general knowledge and
understanding on "why it happens," and "how we can improve the
outcome."
