Sharing Orion is a highly unique book, in that it is a romance
novel written by a fighter pilot. The main characters, Aiden and
Chloe Eason, take the reader on a wild ride unlike any other ever
experienced. Set in a fighter squadron, the reader experiences true
fighter squadron dynamics and flying excitement - not Hollywood
embellishments.
This volume focuses on hospitality as a theoretically and
historically crucial phenomenon in Shakespeare's work with
ramifications for contemporary thought and practice. Drawing a
multifaceted picture of Shakespeare's scenes of hospitality-with
their numerous scenes of greeting, feeding, entertaining, and
sheltering-the collection demonstrates how hospitality provides a
compelling frame for the core ethical, political, theological, and
ecological questions of Shakespeare's time and our own. By reading
Shakespeare's plays in conjunction with contemporary theory as well
as early modern texts and objects-including almanacs, recipe books,
husbandry manuals, and religious tracts - this book reimagines
Shakespeare's playworld as one charged with the risks of hosting
(rape and seduction, war and betrayal, enchantment and
disenchantment) and the limits of generosity (how much can or
should one give the guest, with what attitude or comportment, and
under what circumstances?). This substantial volume maps the
terrain of Shakespearean hospitality in its rich complexity,
demonstrating the importance of historical, rhetorical, and
phenomenological approaches to this diverse subject.

The years 950-1200 are often called the Golden Age of the Jews in
Spain. During this period, the Jews reached a peak of achievement
in all aspects of their life-political, spiritual, and cultural.
They produced great works of literature and philosophy; their
poetry represents a peak of literary achievement unparalleled in
Hebrew until the twentieth century. The poets of the Golden Age
forged the language of the Hebrew Bible into a magnificent
instrument for the expression of every facet of their
experience--love and friendship, war and exile, philosophy and
prayer. Their poems reflect their overarching consciousness of
Israel's relationship with God and their deep concern with the fate
of the Jewish people in exile. Not until modern times did Hebrew
poetic genius flourish again with such freedom and with such
intensity. This volume conveys in modern English something of the
greatness of that literature while as far as possible preserving
the poetic values and beauty of the Hebrew original. Brief notes on
the work of each of the thirteen poets represented put the poems in
their proper perspective and do much to elucidate their meaning.
The poets included are Dunash Halevi ben Labrat, Joseph ibn
Abithur, Isaac ibn Kalpon, Samuel Hanagid, Solomon ibn Gabirol,
Isaac ibn Gi'at, Moses ibn Ezra, Judah Halevi, Abraham ibn Ezra,
Joseph ibn Zabara, Judah Alharizi, Shem Tob ben Palquera, and
Todros ben Judah Abulafia. 'Remains the only anthology in English
devoted entirely to the Golden Age with selections from all the
major and some minor poets presented in verse translations. The
book is a gift to the academic world and to all readers interested
in the literary achievements of the Jews.' From the Foreword by
Raymond Scheindlin

The Black Intebnational " The history of the world attests to the
truth that men have never ceased to recognize the Pope as the
supreme head of that Living Organism ? natural and supernatural ?
which is by the Socialists opprohriously designated the " Black
International." There is no break in the Apostolic Succession.
There are some 300, - 000,000 persons of all races and climes who
acknowledge allegiance to the Pope as their Spiritual Father ?
their authority and guide, on earth, in matters of faith and
morals. From the beginning of the Christian era, Catholics have
held that the power exercised by the Pope was originally conferred
upon Simon, the Fisherman; when in response to Simon's confession
of supernatural faith, Christ our Lord said: " Thou art Peter and
on this Bock I will build My Church, and the Gates of Hell shall
not prevail against It." In perpetual light Catholics have always
held that as Christ's Church was to endure forever, as Christ was
to be with His Church until the consummation of the world, as the
Gates of Hell were not to prevail against it, consequently the
power of Peter was to pass down to his Apostolic Successors through
all the ages of time. This belief history substantiates first in
the selection of Linus (67 A. D.), Cletus (76 A. D.) and so on all
down the centuries until time brings us to Benedict XV, the 259th
successor of Peter, whose power of the Keys he exercises. This
being so, Catholics, therefore, believe Pope Benedict XV to be the
Chief Pastor of the universal flock as Peterwas Chief Pastor of the
Apostles, entrusted by Christ with the divine authority to teach
all nations ?" to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded
you." In a general way when we speak of the Pope we mean the Church
itself ? that Christian Organism within whic...
