"Echoes of a Haunting Revisited" is a re-issue and adds some
material not in the original book. It tells the story of a family
under siege. From the time the Dandy family moved to their "home in
the country" in 1970 until they fled it in 1974, they were plagued
but unexplainable and terrifying events. When they tell you ghosts
can't harm you, take it with a grain of salt. Perhaps they can't
affect you directly but they can sure cause incidents that can
kill. The book is told in semi-diary form to keep it in (hopefully)
order. If you don't believe in the paranormal, you'd better not
read this book. If you want to learn something, by all means read
it and learn.
Isaiah 61 The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the
Lord has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent
me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the
captive and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim
the year of the Lord's favor and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in
Zion-to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil
of gladness Instead of mourning and a garment of praise Instead of
a spirit of despair. They will be called the oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor. They will
rebuild an ancient ruin and restore the places long devastated they
will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for
generations. Aliens will Shepard your flocks; foreigners will work
your field and vineyards. And you will be called priests of the
Lord, you will be named ministers of our God you will feed on the
wealth of nations, and in their riches you will boast.

Does an ancient monster lurk in the depths of Scotland's Loch Ness?
Is this creature the last living dinosaur? What secrets does the
mysterious loch hold?
For centuries, an international eye has been focused on Loch Ness
and the belief that a creature, "Nessie," lives deep within the
isolated body of cold green water. The Loch Ness Monster: The
Evidence is the final word on this mystery; a compact but
comprehensive review of the principal evidence for the existence of
an unknown creature (or creatures) in Loch Ness.
Beginning with an explanation of the origin of belief in the
monster, and the myths and deception surrounding the story, this
volume surveys the eyewitness evidence, reviews the most notorious
reports, as well as photos and instrumental evidence. Steuart
Campbell, a scientific skeptic, exposes the falsehoods behind each
alleged sighting, explores every new shred of evidence, and
discusses the sonar work of the U.S. Academy of Applied Science's
exploration. Included is commentary on other such nautical
mysteries and sightings in other seas of the world.
The definitive work on the subject, The Loch Ness Monster is a must
read for monster buffs and others who've always wanted to know the
truth about Loch Ness.
What do CSI, Twilight, Indiana Jones, Theoretical Physics and The
Holy Bible all have in common?... According to this book, Blood
From forensic science to vampires to hunting for the Holy Grail,
we, as a culture, by necessity and curiosity, are fascinated by
this gooey material that flows through our veins Red, life-giving,
and one of the greatest enigmas of science, blood becomes the
subject of interest in this thought provoking study of the Bible.
Fundamentally, BLOOD is the most important natural element in
Christendom because of the Sacrifice of Jesus, His Blood and Its
connection to Christian salvation. Drawing from divine inspiration,
the etymology (study) of classic Hebrew and Greek words and other
fields of study, this book attempts to answer two basic questions:
What is the Blood of Jesus and how can "It" actually save us? The
theoretical answer lies inside the pages of this book. The author
invites readers to join him in a sort of "Crime Scene
Investigation" at the foot of that Cross to determine the true
nature of Jesus' Blood.
This is a story of tragedy, love, heartbreak, hope, humor,
forgiveness, and the pure power of human compassion. An old man has
been living on his own for many years. Although not considered a
recluse or hermit, he does spend much time alone. He is
guilt-ridden and has many regrets which he thinks about in his
isolation. Mainly, it's the guilt of leaving his children on that
day, those many years past. His guilt haunts him in the form of
dreams and nightmares. The old man is a father whose heart aches
with the love for his children, yet he finds it difficult to locate
the level ground on which to have a relationship, as well as a
level piece of ground to deal with the choices that he has made in
his life. A bird of faith, not believed to exist, befriends him and
stands by him, even to protect him from a near-death tragedy, and
has the ability to locate him, no matter where he is. Although once
a solid blackbird, it slowly changes to white as the man sheds his
guilt. He develops a passion to make sketches of the bird, and this
becomes a source that creates the problem. Due to certain
circumstances, he ends up in a hospital mental ward. A continuous
barrage of technicalities and other circumstances make it difficult
for him to attain his freedom. He captures the love of a
middle-aged, not-so pretty, recovering drug addict who along with
her illiteracy had a speech impediment. A dedicated doctor finds he
is not too old to learn a lesson about life from his patient. And
two compassionate ward nurses befriend him and help him make
life-changing decisions. His impact on them is no less
life-changing. Hopefully, the man who dared to dream will capture
your heart, as well.
The book describe what educators can do to shape a student mind set
and give hope for a brighter day. It tell the story of the

based on how he is treated. At the conclusion, a poor boy becomes a
man; a soldier emerges as a good citizen of this "Great Nation"
United States of America.
Every child has a dream when they start off in life to become
someone great and do great things. Somehow along the line of
growth, those dreams are lost. Ninety percent of the world
population is lateral, eking out a living by hard work and toil and
still have a lot of month at the end of the money. This writer asks
if this is or was the intention of our creator Father. This book
explains how our Father is immensely rich and boasts of great
abundance. It tells how earth's children choose to be poor and how
the Creator Father feels sad. Most importantly, this book explains
how one can start to live a life expressing the abundance of the
universe in total joy and fulfillment. There is proof that such a
life of maximum abundance exists and 10 percent of the earth's
population testifies to that fact. You don t have to push drags,
hit a jackpot, or win a great lottery to get into that 10 percent
bracket. Yes, there are some people that have much from such
venues, but research has shown that wealth gained in that manner is
short lived and few get real satisfaction from it. You could live a
life of abundance, a life of your dreams, if you learnt the secrets
of linking yourself with the mind of the creator. This book reveals
the fact that money and wealth are not the cause of wealth or
poverty. It shows that each person's mind, attitude, approach, and
preparedness to meeting money and wealth determine whether or not
one becomes rich or poor. A person's mind also determines what
level of wealth or poverty one will attain. The words of Solomon,
the great king of Israel, then rings true again: "As a man thinks
in his heart, so is He."
