Under it, large capacity one-man operated buses were introduced on suburban bus routes for the first time and many routes were altered and shortened. It was to lead to the worst period in the history of London bus services. This book covers this period with details of the policy, the implementation, the reactions and the consequences. The route alterations are also detailed and the book is illustrated with around 200 photographs and maps.

We've all gathered around the dinner table with family and friends and shared our Murphy's Law stories, when what could go wrong did at the worst possible time. In short time our daily routines returned to normal, and recounting those stories made for fun dinner conversation.

But what do we do-and this is truer today during the global economic crisis-when Murphy's Law becomes the new routine? When months, even years later, the break you prayed for never came? Like quicksand, the harder you tried to free yourself from dark corners, closed doors and missed opportunities, the more stuck you became. In time you donned the scarlet letter V on your brow. After all, you'd earned the right. Only then you were more bound in the mire than ever.

There is a way out.

Breaking free is my story.

It was the Celtic bards who laid down the foundation of inner wisdom that has come down to us as Arthurian legend, passing their traditions to the Arthurian romancers of the 12th and 13th centuries. Thus the Celts provide an immediate bridge that leads to a very ancient world. Focusing on the Brythonic Celtic material and the "Taliesin" cult whose lineage preserved the mysteries through the Mabinogion and other texts, Awen: the Quest of the Celtic Mysteries reveals the sources of the British sacred tradition right back to the Neolithic and Bronze Ages, and, as some believe, further back still to even more ancient sources. Awen is a Welsh word often translated as "inspiration". However, in its fullness it has a much deeper meaning, an irradiation of the soul from paradisal origins. In the context of the Celtic folk-soul it casts the paradisal pattern by which the people and the land were harmonised. Through the aligned symbolism of the goddess, the sacred king and the stars, a compelling picture is built of a thriving mystery tradition which marries the constellations to the landscape, exploring as an example the interwoven five-fold and seven-fold stellar geometry of Moel ty Uchaf stone circle in North Wales, and the stellar alignments on the landscape of Cadair Idris.

Expedition Leader Mike Harris is an accomplished writer, explorer and film producer who has led a number of major expeditions throughout the world, including the first expeditions to search for the Titanic in the North Atlantic. On Mike's first expedition in 1971 he led a group of professional divers and film makers to Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands where they dove on American, German and Japanese warships that were sunk by atom bomb testing after WWII. Mike produced a film of his first adventure called "Deadly Fathoms" which featured Rod Serling and won a Silver Medal at the Atlanta International Film Festival. On Mike's second expedition he led a group of mountain climbers and Biblical Scholars up the slopes of Mt. Ararat in Turkey to search for Noah's Ark. His film "Expedition to Noah's Ark" featured acclaimed actor Joseph Cotten as his on-camera host and narrator. Mike's third adventure film took him to the mountains of Old Mexico where he searched for buried treasure. His film "Pancho Villa's Treasure" featured film and television star Cesar Romero as his on-camera host and narrator. In 1980 Mike then led the first expedition to search for the Titanic in the North Atlantic. His film "Search for the Titanic" featured legendary actor Orson Wells as his on-camera host and narrator. Mr. Wells said it was an honor for him to work on such an important film. Mike's second Titanic film in 1981 featured James 'The Virginian' Drury, who actually joined Mike at sea during his second Titanic adventure. Mike has also filmed eye-witnesses in the Marshall Islands and on Saipan who claim the famed aviatrix Amelia Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan didn't just crash into the ocean and disappear as history tells us They told Mike on camera that Amelia and Fred actually crashed their Lockheed Electra off Mili Atoll in the Marshall Islands, were captured by the Japanese, then taken to Saipan in the Marianna Islands where they were put into prison and eventually killed. Mike's many projects have taken him from Guyana to the Arctic Circle, Greenland to Israel and have included multiple studies of the Chinese Admiral Zheng He and the incredible fleet of Ming Treasure Ships he commanded on seven expeditions sixty years before Columbus discovered America. Harris is a member of The Explorers Club of New York, a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society in London and has been listed in Who's Who in American since 2000.

Many Christian teachers dismiss the field of psychology, and self-discovery, similarly, is often discounted. But this author begs to differ. For inasmuch as we were created in God's image, to learn more about self is to learn more about the Father we were fashioned after, and vice versa. After all, we look a lot alike.

ALL truth is compatible with Scripture because God is the author of it all, and that includes many of the theories of psychology. True, psychology typically leaves out the main character of the biblical story, but that's not to say we still can't learn from this discipline, as long as we keep things in proper perspective.

In this book, six psychological theories of human behavior are given a Christian interpretation. The goal is to incorporate all of God's truth to more fully understand our struggle to become princes.
