Doing theology requires dissension and tenacity. Dissension is
required when scriptural texts, and the colonial bodies and
traditions (read: Babylon) that capitalize upon those, inhibit or
prohibit "rising to life." With "nerves" to dissent, the attentions
of the first cluster of essays extend to scriptures and theologies,
to borders and native peoples. The title for the first cluster -
"talking back with nerves, against Babylon" - appeals to the spirit
of feminist (to talk back against patriarchy) and RastafarI (to
chant down Babylon) critics. The essays in the second cluster -
titled "persevering with tenacity, through shitstems" - testify
that perseverance is possible, and it requires tenacity. Tenacity
is required so that the oppressive systems of Babylon do not have
the final word. These two clusters are framed by two chapters that
set the tone and push back at the usual business of doing theology,
inviting engagement with the wisdom and nerves of artists and
poets, and two closing chapters that open up the conversation for
further dissension and tenacity. Doing theology with dissension and
tenacity is unending.
Have you been wanting to buy coins, gold, or silver on the internet
but aren't sure that it is safe? Your caution is justified, and
that is why this book was written: To provide a glimpse into the
deceptions and scams that are so prevalent not just on the internet
but in the real world as well. Every fake coin that is sold
undermines the integrity of our hobby as well as the values of
un-graded coins on the open market. Are you able to identify a
counterfeit silver dollar? Because of the high values of key date
coins, forgeries are being made almost every day and peddled to
unsuspecting victims who think they have the bargain of a lifetime.
What about bullion? Are you able to tell a dishonest deal from a
legitimate one? This guide will teach you how descriptions can be
worded in such a way to mislead you into buying mere replicas and
imitations with little or no real value. Unsearched coin lots;
"Shotgun" rolled coins; "Estate" lots; "Miniature" gold coins and
counterfeit tokens with little or no value; Altered coins; Graded
vs. Ungraded coins; Gold Filled vs. Gold Plated; Choosing a
refinery; Basic coin evaluation and grading; These are beginnings
that open up lucrative opportunities for a sharp eye, yet to the
untrained they become pitfalls: Wouldn't you like to be better
prepared?
There are countless prospecting books out there. They all teach the
same general theories and show the same diagrams. While they are
not bad books, in fact many are great, this book is written to take
a different and simpler approach. A prospectors lifetime of
knowledge is simplified and condensed into an easy to read and
understand guide that will hopefully benefit those who never even
held a gold pan as much as those who have spent a few years
prospecting but might still have a few questions they are seeking
answers to. It is the intent that this is the prospecting book that
will read as a novel, and teach every bit as much as an
informational guide.
What are the types of equipment available and how do I use them?
What is it that I am looking for when I am prospecting? What do I
do with my gold once I find it and how do I sell it? Are my black
sands worth anything? What are black sands made out of? How do I
find a place I can go and prospect? Is there a way to know where I
should dig in a stream? How do mining claims work?
These are some of the many questions that this book was written to
address. While there is no guide that can tell you how to get rich
mining for gold, this guide has been written for the purpose of
helping you be more likely to find gold on your future prospecting
trips.
It is easy to become discouraged as a prospector, or allow
yourself to believe others when they say "there is no gold left to
be found, the old-timers got it all." You are just a few pages away
from learning the facts; and that the gold has not all been taken
and how you can get your share
