Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Internal pain isn't always externally visible. However, anger, profanity, and explosive outbursts are signs that someone has hit their maximum of frustration. We can know someone for decades and not have an inkling of their past. The same can be said of us. Sometimes it's easier to hide our hurt than to express and deal with it. That's why we're blindsided when normally calm person explodes over a small matter. Often, the incident has triggered their internal hurt pocket and what we observe is the outcome of hidden pain.We can't avoid pain or being hurt. So how can we prevent erupting? We first need to recognize that there have been times we've felt wronged, disrespected or unfortunately abused by others. Those situations are hurtful. Strong feelings about them are natural. And working through those emotions when it's fresh is preferable to stuffing the pain inside and then exploding when it's triggered.Contrary to what many might believe, God is not the author of pain. The garden God prepared was perfect. Pain came as a consequence to mankind's sin, and now we must address it or live with an internal inferno that can unexpectedly erupt.Mistreatment and pain are littered throughout Scripture. Murder, theft, sibling rivalry, betrayal, and neglected children-the infractions are too numerous to list. Each story is a personal experience. Some handled it well and many did not.Cain did not. He killed his brother. And Moses, in anger broke the tablet containing the original ten commandments God had given him. Contrast that with Joseph who forgave his brothers for planning to murder him, then selling him as a slave instead, thus separating him from his father for decades. Joseph pondered these hard places. He saw that God used it to move him to where God would ultimately use Joseph. He processed the pain and decided he could forgive that very deep hurt. The question is: can we? Will we choose to try?Redefining your hurt is a process in which each of the readings will bring up a challenging situation or a new way to see God in the circumstances. The reader is encouraged to work through the devotion prayerfully, seeking to see God in a new way.Perhaps like Joseph, we too can learn to forgive as Paul instructs in Colossians 3:13 so we can have the peace of God in our hearts and in our minds.This devotional won't read itself. It will take effort, repeated determination for a habit to form. A daily desire in seeking God and His answers for your life. The Holy Spirit can bring to mind the people or circumstances that challenge our peace. It's our job to read how Scripture advises us to handle it. Through prayer and God's guidance in His Word, we can learn to release that hurt to His perfect judgment.Just as there are Biblical stories about hurt, there are also a myriad of accounts of people who followed God through their hard places and were greatly blessed. The challenge is to reframe your hurt as a picture on God's wall. You get to decide what that photo looks like. Through God's heavenly lens, a shepherd boy named David became not only a giant killer, but after years of being hunted as rival to Saul's throne, he became king.Not many of us will face such daunting challenges, but to know it is possible to overcome such adversity can only bring us hope. I pray you'll consider this challenge a steppingstone to a deeper relationship with God.We can use God's tools-his Word and his ways to become internally and emotionally healthier and enjoy our earthly journey. God desires us to join him in the spiritual battle that he has already won. If we do, how can we lose?Be encouraged. You don't walk alone.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What happens when machines can produce more goods and services while employing fewer people to produce them?Automation has delivered extraordinary increases in productivity, but it also creates a problem conventional economics has not solved: machines do not earn wages, buy houses, raise families, or provide the consumer demand needed to purchase what an increasingly automated economy can produce.In Automation Annuity, Don Soards argues that the United States has undergone a fundamental economic transition from the Seller's Market that dominated much of the twentieth century to a new Buyer's Market. In the old economy, production capacity was often the limiting factor. In the new economy, automation increasingly makes consumer purchasing power the limiting factor.Soards examines changes in inflation, government debt, wages, employment, consumer demand, and other economic indicators to make the case that many familiar economic assumptions were developed for conditions that no longer exist. Policies designed to restrain an economy suffering from inadequate production can produce very different results when the underlying problem is inadequate consumer demand.The book then presents the Automation Annuity, a new approach to replacing purchasing power lost as automation replaces human labor. Rather than funding a conventional universal basic income through increased taxation or government borrowing, the proposal introduces Progress Dollars into the economy as productive capacity expands. Increases would be gradual and subject to economic safeguards intended to prevent demand from exceeding the economy's ability to produce.Automation Annuity challenges readers to reconsider some of the most basic assumptions about inflation, money, employment, government debt, and economic growth. It also asks a larger question: if technology gives society the ability to produce abundance with less human labor, can our economic system evolve so that consumers retain the purchasing power necessary to share in that abundance?This book is for readers interested in automation, artificial intelligence, economics, monetary policy, the future of work, universal basic income, and the economic consequences of technological change. Automation is replacing wages faster than consumers replace lost purchasing power. Automation Annuity explains why conventional economics is failing and proposes a new way to restore demand and prosperity without taxes or government debt. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. All poetry kind of has this cool, unspoken picture story vibe going on, right? It's like it is all about connecting to feelings in a way that doesn't need explaining. It's not that anyone must break it down or anything, one just needs to find the key to unlock what's inside, you know? Just let the emotions flow and catch the gist of it, without getting too hung up on the details.The poems in this edition are the original inspirations for the music of the opening groups and the Bande De Gorilles. While not a single poem in its exact words or content is transcribed into music, they exist as the foundations for all the interpretations and creative pathways for the music.In the words of lead guitarist Elly Smoke: "Picture poetry as a kind of music building a bridge to feelings that can't be put into words. It frees emotions and lets everyone feel deeply. The best part? It requires no explanation or analyzation. It just makes sense."Guitarist Janine Rousselle says, "Everyone knows this feeling. It comes from deep within. Whether it's joy, sadness, love, or longing, poetry and music tap into that. It brings people together.""In the end, it's the power of raw emotion that really connects. Poets and musicians alike share this gift They touch hearts," says drummer Mack Chaucer.Lisette Duret, the bassiste, who has transposed the majority of the poetry into musical arrangements for the band and the opening bands, explains the concept the best. "Imagine poetry picking up a lead guitar. Then it teams up with a rhythm guitar, a bass guitar, and a drummer. When they play together, magic happens. This gift of music connects everyone, not necessarily to language but to an atmosphere of sensations and emotions. The best part? Nobody needs to overthink it. Deep down, everybody gets it. That is what Bande De Gorilles is all about."All the opening bands reflect and embrace the creative structural techniques not only mirroring Bande De Gorilles but also producing their own freeform arrangements and diversity.Bande De Gorilles knows they're more than a band. They're a movement that can't be silenced.The band's followers know most of the words to most of their works. They're all in the same boat, fighting the same battles, with the same feelings and experiences. Most importantly, Bande de Gorilles becomes their battle hymn, their voice when they couldn't yell it themselves. Imagine poetry picks up a lead guitar. Then it teams up with a rhythm and bass guitar, and a drummer. When they play together, magic happens. Poetic words and feelings is what Bande De Gorilles is all about.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Adam Bennett has been given a brand new script.The first script had contained many things that were prophetic and most of the material it contained came true.Maria Gambella, the writer of the manuscript, has written that a hit must be put out on her in order to keep him safe from his nemesis, Urstin Trevosky.Adam knows this is a dangerous game they are playing but after reading the script, he knows if even half of the script comes true the world as we know it will be a very different place under the control of some very evil people.He makes the call, and a few more, just to keep Maria safe, but the only one that needs protection is the assassin.Maria's dead husband is now Joey Hopkins guardian angel. Jacob is torn between his obligation to keep Joey safe and also protect his wife. Of course Joey's name is written inside the manuscript, with him doing most of the work saving the world. He can't do it without the help of Adam Bennett and Jacob.Jacob thinks it's fun putting Joey into situations that are hard for Joey to get out of. Jacob could easily steer Joey away from danger, but what fun would that be. If Joey hadn't killed him and gotten his wife pregnant, maybe he would've tried harder, but payback is so much more enjoyable.An earthquake has opened a doorway at the prison in Jarratt Virginia. The prisoner known has Diablo has walked away and now is on the loose. The last time Joey had dealt with him he was shot five times and nearly blown up.A bomb has been placed on a plane that has Joey's little daughter and future wife taking back to LA, he was on it as well right up to the last minute, Jacob made him get off without them. Another thing Joey is going to have to answer for while trying to stay out of jail as he deals with the many other things Jacob has him in the middle of. So much fun for Jacob, not so much for Joey.A fast paced ride leads us to a place where everyone hangs by a thread wondering how Joey is going to get them all out of this one alive and well. He can't do it alone, but Joey has many friends, some will make it out alive and some won't, only time will tell who survives to live another day and who makes their way to the light.This book is the 2nd in the series. Guardian Angel Number Seven tells how the crew all got together, this story is the beginning of Joey's nightmare and gets us started toward many sleepless nights wondering how Joey is going to get out of this adventure and on to the next.Joey has many friends as well as enemies. Their stories are weaved in as we go. If I tried to put them all in the same book I would have over a thousand page novel. I broke it up into ten books. The stories are written and just need to be published. I hope you enjoy this series and keep coming back for more. The character, R.J. Ted is based off of my youngest son. By far the funniest character in the book. I don't have to go far to get inspiration for my stories. If this book ever makes it to film, he needs to play this part. I've watched him on stage, as soon as he walks out, the audience begins to laugh, and than he makes them laugh even more.Enjoy and God Bless. A new manuscript has been given to Hollywood producer Adam Bennett. The first one was very prophetic, this one has time sensitive written on the envelope it came in.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A poor but talented beauty, Grace Laverty, abused by her brother, is offered up to her brother's drunken mates on her thirteenth birthday. She escapes to her mother's workplace, a nearby hospital. There she is abused by two juvenile delinquents when a negligent nurse's aide locks her up. Bewildered, hurt, overwhelmed, and desperate to get away and flee the state, Grace staggers to the roadside. She is picked up by a kind truck driver. They cross the state border from Queensland to New South Wales and reach Sydney. Cast into the unknown, she is confronted with apparent insurmountable challenges. Will she survive?Grace changes her name: Penny Peacock is invented. Penny lies to survive, and she must find a means to subsist, attend school, and pursue her acting, singing, and dancing. She strives to cope with the obstacles, treacheries, and dangers of life in a large city. Daily she struggles to manage her PTSD, to find her own identity, and to survive the odds stacked against her. She volunteers at Rape Crisis Centers, displaying her talents to entertain and help other abused victims. She must also live with two additional challenges: a phenomenal memory and a secret biological idiosyncrasy. Can she transform these two 'curses' into blessings?Penny has success role-playing on stage and her acting skills help her get by socially. But she has little success overcoming her mental and emotional scars and cannot disclose her awful secrets and shame to anybody until she befriends another rape victim, Jennifer Fremd. Jennifer commits herself to intense martial arts, Jeet Kune Do, to overcome her PTSD and to prepare for retribution against her rapist. That rapist turns out to be Penny's brother, Lou Laverty, now a detective sergeant and a corrupt cop. Laverty has raped others and runs several profitable rackets including intimidation and extortion, illegal gambling, and prostitution. Jennifer's father, a chief inspector, struggles to fight police corruption in his department and elsewhere, and he fails to nail Jennifer's rapist.Penny and Jennifer become intimate. Ready for change and reinvention, they achieve a new level of liberation, of empowerment, and of freedom from conventional thinking. A paradigm shift for both. Separately, they learn that the justice system fails far too many victims of crime and they analyze alternative paths to justice. Jennifer undertakes an undergraduate law degree, observes her dad's efforts, and does much research. Penny meets with Aborigines and learns about alternative forms of Aboriginal justice. Together they devise an unconventional, concerted plan to rectify injustices experienced and observed: they plan a lure to trap the rapist and bent cop.An unexpected opportunity suddenly presents itself when a death threat made against Lou Laverty in Brisbane by a leading Mafia head, Tony Malelli, is published in newspapers Australia-wide. But Penny lives in Sydney, a distance of almost 600 miles by road from Brisbane. It appears their concerted action against Laverty is doomed, and there is an apparent communication failure. "The best laid plans of mice and men can still go wrong!" Will they ever bring Laverty to justice? Will Penny ever be free to return to her home state? Will she ever avenge her heinous abuse, find justice and peace of mind? A poor but talented beauty is abused and runs away from home. She encounters many challenges and dangers in a large, strange city. She befriends another victim of rape. The two girls plan to bring their rapist, a corrupt cop, to justice.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Offered here for the first time in English, The Aesthetic of Johann Sebastian Bach (L'Esthetique de Jean-Sebastien Bach), by the celebrated scholar and organist Andre Pirro, was originally published in 1907. Considered a masterpiece by many, it supports a uniquely engaging analysis that has informed and moved readers for more than a century. This translation introduces Pirro's work to a new audience of those who wish to have a greater understanding of the expressive import of Bach's music. Performers, in particular, will find it a valuable touchstone for instilling every figure and phrase they play with an ever-deepening range of feeling. Focusing first on the meanings of the motifs and other devices that Bach uses to depict the emotions, actions, and atmospheres of particular vocal settings, Pirro then carefully examines how Bach makes use of these devices in his instrumental accompaniments, orchestrations, pieces without a text, and even choices of compositional forms. The study concludes with an examination of the influence Bach's predecessors and contemporaries had on his work and offers Bach as an exemplar of a uniquely German spirit through the religious devotion and attitudes toward love, nature, and humor manifested his music. Offered here for the first time in English, Pirro's 1907 work is considered a masterpiece by many. Its uniquely engaging analysis has informed and moved readers for more than a century.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Why isn't your team taking initiative? Why do standard performance check-ins turn into exhausting legalistic debates? The answer might be the very word you are using to manage them: "Why?"While "Why" is celebrated on corporate banners as the ultimate tool for purpose and vision, it routinely transforms into a micro-weapon of interrogation when deployed during daily tasks. A manager asks, "Why did you do it that way?" but the employee hears, "Defend yourself." Instantly, the human brain shifts from collaborative problem-solving into survival mode. Reflective thinking drops, the "Defend Reflex" activates, and accountability vanishes behind a cloud of excuses, deflections, and blame-shifting.When Why Becomes a Weapon reveals how standard workplace inquiry accidentally triggers defensiveness, taxes team trust, and grinds organizational momentum to a halt. The problem isn't accountability. It is the accidental interrogation techniques that make self-protection more important than solving the actual problem.Written by Air Force veteran, educator, and corporate trainer Raymond Tash, this book provides a practical roadmap to dismantle the gotcha culture and replace defensive resistance with genuine ownership. You will learn how to: Identify and disarm the five classic accountability escape routes before they derail team progress.Navigate corporate engines of stagnation that use endless questioning to delay commitment and protect the status quo.Master the 10-second response window following a mistake to keep your team's analytical minds online.Replace "Why" with "What" and "How" questions that uncover practical mechanics without putting people on trial.Reclaim "Why" to drive macro-purpose and forward-looking vision without triggering micro-level defensiveness.Packed with field-tested linguistic frameworks, comparative scripts, and real-world scenarios across corporate leadership, education, and parenting, When Why Becomes a Weapon equips leaders to convert fault-finding cross-examinations into constructive coaching. Stop running investigations. Start building a culture of high-judgment, autonomous problem-solvers. Discover how asking "Why" can trigger defensiveness at work. This practical guide offers essential language tools to transform accusatory interrogation into constructive coaching, trust, and team autonomy. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What happens when machines can produce more goods and services while employing fewer people to produce them?Automation has delivered extraordinary increases in productivity, but it also creates a problem conventional economics has not solved: machines do not earn wages, buy houses, raise families, or provide the consumer demand needed to purchase what an increasingly automated economy can produce.In Automation Annuity, Don Soards argues that the United States has undergone a fundamental economic transition from the Seller's Market that dominated much of the twentieth century to a new Buyer's Market. In the old economy, production capacity was often the limiting factor. In the new economy, automation increasingly makes consumer purchasing power the limiting factor.Soards examines changes in inflation, government debt, wages, employment, consumer demand, and other economic indicators to make the case that many familiar economic assumptions were developed for conditions that no longer exist. Policies designed to restrain an economy suffering from inadequate production can produce very different results when the underlying problem is inadequate consumer demand.The book then presents the Automation Annuity, a new approach to replacing purchasing power lost as automation replaces human labor. Rather than funding a conventional universal basic income through increased taxation or government borrowing, the proposal introduces Progress Dollars into the economy as productive capacity expands. Increases would be gradual and subject to economic safeguards intended to prevent demand from exceeding the economy's ability to produce.Automation Annuity challenges readers to reconsider some of the most basic assumptions about inflation, money, employment, government debt, and economic growth. It also asks a larger question: if technology gives society the ability to produce abundance with less human labor, can our economic system evolve so that consumers retain the purchasing power necessary to share in that abundance?This book is for readers interested in automation, artificial intelligence, economics, monetary policy, the future of work, universal basic income, and the economic consequences of technological change. Automation is replacing wages faster than consumers replace lost purchasing power. Automation Annuity explains why conventional economics is failing and proposes a new way to restore demand and prosperity without taxes or government debt. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Offered here for the first time in English, The Aesthetic of Johann Sebastian Bach (L'Esthetique de Jean-Sebastien Bach), by the celebrated scholar and organist Andre Pirro, was originally published in 1907. Considered a masterpiece by many, it supports a uniquely engaging analysis that has informed and moved readers for more than a century. This translation introduces Pirro's work to a new audience of those who wish to have a greater understanding of the expressive import of Bach's music. Performers, in particular, will find it a valuable touchstone for instilling every figure and phrase they play with an ever-deepening range of feeling. Focusing first on the meanings of the motifs and other devices that Bach uses to depict the emotions, actions, and atmospheres of particular vocal settings, Pirro then carefully examines how Bach makes use of these devices in his instrumental accompaniments, orchestrations, pieces without a text, and even choices of compositional forms. The study concludes with an examination of the influence Bach's predecessors and contemporaries had on his work and offers Bach as an exemplar of a uniquely German spirit through the religious devotion and attitudes toward love, nature, and humor manifested his music. Offered here for the first time in English, Pirro's 1907 work is considered a masterpiece by many. Its uniquely engaging analysis has informed and moved readers for more than a century.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What does it mean to be given a second chance at life?Barabbas never expected to leave Golgotha alive. A convicted murderer and zealot rebel, he was condemned to crucifixion alongside a Galilean preacher named Jesus. Yet on that fateful Passover, the crowd demanded his release instead. As Jesus took up the cross meant for him, Barabbas walked free-guilty, alive, and forever haunted by the weight of an exchange he did not ask for.Asher Ben-David is a modern-day archeologist who discovers a cave on Mount Hermon. Inside that cave, he discovers scrolls that tell the unknown story of Barabbas.Trained as an aspiring scribe, Barabbas witnesses the senseless murders of a close friend and his parents. This led to his rebellion.A year has passed since that dreadful day, and Barabbas must now answer the question that torments him: What is he to do with the life he was given?This novel follows paths that Barabbas might have chosen. In one path, he discovers that grace can find even the worst of men. Haunted by the sacrifice made in his place, he abandons his sword and joins the followers of Jesus, learning that true freedom comes not from political rebellion but from spiritual redemption. His scars serve as proof that transformation is possible, and he walks toward martyrdom not as a criminal but as a redeemed man.In the other path, Barabbas cannot shake the injustice that still plagues his people. Rome still rules. The poor still suffer. Peace feels like betrayal. Despite his encounters with grace, he returns to the zealot rebellion, choosing the sword over surrender. Yet even as he leads his men toward armed resistance, he carries the hollow ache of knowing what he has abandoned-and the gnawing certainty that he could have been truly free.Through these paths, Barabbas explores the tension between faith and action, grace and justice, redemption and resistance. It is a meditation on choice, second chances, and the cost of freedom in all its forms. Readers will find themselves wrestling with the same question Barabbas must answer: When given a second chance, what will you do with it?Perfect for readers of Christian historical fiction, philosophical retellings, and anyone drawn to stories that explore the transformative power of grace and the weight of human choice. When Barabbas is freed in place of Jesus, he must choose between two paths: redemption through grace or vengeance through the sword. A meditation on second chances and the cost of true freedom.
