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.
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
importance of having God fearing parents in your life at the
beginning sowing love. As you read the book further, you begin to
picture a young man making a choice in his life to love or hate
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."
Are phantoms "alive" and walking the streets of Tinseltown and
beyond? Hollywood. Film capital of the world. Haunted Hollywood
brings together twenty-five stories that capture both the
spirit-and the spirits-of Tinseltown. These tales concern historic
landmarks, theaters, watering holes, hotels, and houses that are
haunted by movie stars, television personalities, and other
celebrities. You will be shivering in your seat as you read about
all these and more: * Film siren Jean Harlow died at only
twenty-six, but many believe she's still "living" in her old home
outside Beverly Hills. * Elke Sommer, the German-born actress and
artist, is convinced a ghost saved her life by waking her after her
house caught fire. Who's to say? * John Wayne has ridden off into
the Final Sunset, but he apparently misses his private yacht. He's
been known to come aboard from time to time. . .

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.
With over a billion followers spread across the world, Islam today
stands as the second largest and the fastest growing religion of
our time. I wonder how many of these over one billion followers
know that their religious scriptures mention spacecrafts that
visited the deserts of Arabia during Prophet Muhammad's time. To
most Muslims, it will come as a great surprise that the pagan
Arabs, who opposed the Prophet, worshipped alien visitors from
outer space! These alien visitors (or sky-gods as they were
understood by pagan Arabs) are mentioned repeatedly in the Quran
and the Hadeeth. Yet, in spite of their emphasized mention, the
Muslim world has not been able to gather any concrete proof of
their existence. In the absence of concrete scientific proof, these
alien space travelers occupy Muslim conscience as spiritual beings.
Concrete proof of the existence of UFOs has been gathered elsewhere
in another part of the world. In the West, thousands of books have
been written on the subject of UFOs but the real reasons for their
visits to our world have still remained a mystery. Furthermore, UFO
researchers today understand that governments of certain Western
countries are concealing important information on UFOs, but the
reasons for this global censorship have not been understood. It
took courage to write this book and it will take courage to read
it. Yet, one thing is for sure, UFOs in the Quran will blow your
mind. At times it will amaze you, at times it will frighten you but
for most part, it will just take the ground from under your feet.
Abdul Aziz Khan is a television journalist whose news reports and
documentaries have gone on air in many countries around the world.
He is a former Field Investigator with MUFON, the worlds largest
organization doing investigations into unexplained aerial
phenomenon.
On the age-old streets of Charleston, the oft-forgotten enclaves of
the Holy City, the authors bring the reader face to face with a
group of orphans who haunt a College of Charleston dorm, a Citadel
cadet who haunts a local hotel and the specter of William Drayton
at Drayton Hall Plantation, to name just a few. Based on historical
events and specific details that are often lost in our general
notion of ghosts, each haunting encounter will send chills through
the reader's senses. From a bookstore phantom notorious for
rearranging the books in perfect vertical stacks, to a gruesome
nineteenth-century amputation taking place again in a medical
student's apartment, Macy and Buxton offer up stories and essays of
a nature more grim and morbid than ever heard of before. Complete
with over 30 black and white photographs.
It was the summer of 1991 and the weather was hot and still.
Bernard and I sat in the shade of the back of our weekend home
making small talk. We were at the height of our careers, prominent
designers in the Canadian Fashion Industry, enjoying a fabulous
lifestyle-dinners out every night, the finest wines, expensive
watches, jewellery, and cars-everything one expects of a life of
success. We were young, attractive and madly in love with each
other. I made a move to go feed our dogs... Bernard went upstairs
to shower... and died instead. It was the day that altered both of
our lives forever. Written with the strong emotions of true love,
this story takes you on a thoughtful, spiritual journey of love
between two souls and a deep overall love of God. It is a story of
life, absolute love, and immeasurable grief. If you had never known
Shelley Wickabrod and Bernard McGee as a couple, nor felt the love
between these two souls, this story makes you feel like you have
known them all of your life... or possibly for many lives.
-Katherine Goodes, Editor, MyEditor.ca This is a story of
uncompromising and unconditional love... Shelley Wickabrod writes a
compelling story that will touch us all. It reads like a movie.

What happens when we die? Does the light just go out and that's
thatthe million-year nap? Or will some part of my personality, my
me-ness persist? What will that feel like? What will I do all day?
Is there a place to plug in my lap-top?" In an attempt to find out,
Mary Roach brings her tireless curiosity to bear on an array of
contemporary and historical soul-searchers: scientists, schemers,
engineers, mediums, all trying to prove (or disprove) that life
goes on after we die. She begins the journey in rural India with a
reincarnation researcher and ends up in a University of Virginia
operating room where cardiologists have installed equipment near
the ceiling to study out-of-body near-death experiences. Along the
way, she enrolls in an English medium school, gets
electromagnetically haunted at a university in Ontario, and visits
a Duke University professor with a plan to weigh the consciousness
of a leech. Her historical wanderings unearth soul-seeking
philosophers who rummaged through cadavers and calves' heads, a
North Carolina lawsuit that established legal precedence for
ghosts, and the last surviving sample of "ectoplasm" in a Cambridge
University archive.
Suppose you could communicate with a visitor who was not from this
place, time-space or even this dimension? What would you want to
ask them? The answers probably lie in what our own response would
be if we were them. This book is based on a collection of
interviews I have had with a few individuals who may have actually
had such an experience. The idea is that if enough of us are ready
to ask the questions and gain the answers, then our collective
knowledge and understanding of the “ multiverse” about us can only
continue to be enhanced. Sometimes the responses that you will read
here are similar; often they are diametrically opposed to each
other. An open but highly skeptical mind is extremely necessary if
you are going to sift through the data that is presented in this
book. The intent is that it should peak your curiosity to learn
more about “ visitors.” In this way, we may be better informed and
prepared, and thus in some sort of coherent shape to deal with
their arrival. If you read this book, you must be well prepared to
choose for yourself what you will or will not believe.
The Uncensored Word - GOD'S GIFT is about my exposure to the
supernatural world. A world I have been some what silent about for
most of my life. I have never felt truly comfortable in talking
about my exposure. Always striving to maintain my composure in
hopes of learning more from each event. I'm telling my story now
because I realize I was given a gift. To explain my gift, I must
now expose my supernatural experiences. GOD's GIFT is the first of
three books. D. J. Bahr
Happiness is not about new cars and bigger houses, it's about
contentment. Peace and satisfaction evolve out of contentment and
laughter is the legitimate child of contentment. If I put a
microphone in your face could you tell me without pause what makes
you happy? Most people can't Why? Because it's not our focus We
focus on what makes us unhappy How long has it been since you had a
happy thought? Research shows that small children laugh 300 or more
times a day while an adult laughs only 20 at most. What happened to
our laughter?
Why Laugh? Humor is infectious and laughter is far more
contagious than a yawn. Humor and laughter strengthen your immune
system and protect you from the damaging effects of stress. Other
benefits of laughing instead of grumbling are: less pain, relaxed
muscles, less heart disease and better moods. Now isn't that enough
reason to make you smile?
