She stretched and hopped out of her bed box.Nova looked like a small black ball of fur with tiny black ears. She and Dorian were Black Dwarf rabbits that had been carefully raised and studied under controlled laboratory conditions for eleven successive generations. Her name was at the bottom of a large chart as NOVA 11/N. This meant she was an eleventh order rabbit with 2,046 carefully raised and charted ancestors.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Numerology: The Magical Universe of Number and What It Means For Character and Destiny is a fun book that draws upon the fact that numerology is an intuitive science based on the principles of the universe. It is based on the truth that numbers are facts, found naturally and thus embody functional truths, which can describe humanity with ease. The preternatural element of number comes before the arbitrary that overlays our civilization and thus describes the power of this book. The book shows that symbolism is powerful and has allowed us to capture the archetypal realities of number in drawn symbols, coming from deep human psychism from very gifted people in our past. And it shows that the number symbolism extends to the alphabet, which too is based on number. This book has presented numerology, with the author focusing directly on the functional realities of numbers and how they describe people and their karma, and what all of this means for our race. This is an intuitively driven account of numerology and proceeds from extrasensory knowledge of the meaning of the numbers and how it relates to karma and soul characters and descriptions. The author is in touch with higher realities so as to make a numerology book that comes from a very high place, drawing from functional realities of the universe. The book is fun and is meant to show that humanity already has a treasure trove of knowledge about navigating this world and is ready to embrace ever higher forms of evolution and learning. Included in this book are historical numerology cases of famous personalities.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Jason woke up that Sunday morning with a smile on his face. The sun was up, and the clear-blue skies beckoned him. In no time, he had showered, dressed, and begged his mother for the use of the family car to attend church. But his mother had to go to work, and so he had no other choice but to ride his motorcycle. The worship service moved Jason to go forward to confess his sins. Relief washed over him, knowing that he had the courage to repent. What healthy, young, fit, twenty-three-year-old could boast that he was an angel Jason became a little complacent on the beautiful day-a little too relaxed, a little too carefree, and just a little too daring as he neared that treacherous bend; little did he know that his young life would be changed forever.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 360 Pounds of Tears-I came up with this title probably around twenty-five years ago.I have written poetry throughout my life, but nothing really serious. A moment would happen and then I would write it down. I wrote the poem '360 Pounds of Tears.' Unfortunately, I lost it, but basically it was about the fear and pain of being heavy and how the world looked at me-the time I was in the store and two little girls looked at me and said how fat I was or the time I was walking down the street of Santa Monica and some guys screaming by in their car and saying, 'Hey, fatso!' So . . . it started with that. Of recent, I fell in love for the first time in my life after thirty or forty years at the age of fifty-four. We got engaged . . . and it ended . . . and the heartache of that is why I started writing. Basically, I woke up one day and heard a voice . . . sounds of sorry, not of command. And I just listened to my inner voice, and I started writing. And I would write and I would write, and actually after I would read it, I didn't know who really wrote it, even though I knew it was me. So it has basically been a healing process, tapping into something . . . I said something to my brother . . . He said, 'I think you got something here . . .' So I just keep on writing or listening, and when the moment happens, I put it down on paper. I would basically summarize the book as a connection with God, life, the unknown, hurt, pain, joy, acceptance, and most of all, love . . . I believe that there are so many forms of love, and I think that everything we do is for love . . . Everything we do . . . So that is basically why I wrote the book of poems . . . 360 Pounds of Tears.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Jack Moser has been dealing with men and male issues in therapy since 1980. He has witnessed men in relationships as they constantly make the same mistakes. In this book, he calls men the lost gender. His experience with men tells him that less than 10 percent of males ever truly discover who they are. They seem to constantly portray their false self, the self of ego, and control and power to women. Women are not looking for this; rather, they seek secure, compassionate, warm, good-humored men who are comfortable in their own skin. Dr. Moser has not discovered many of these men in his male groups over the past thirty years.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This is Ernest Yates's eleventh volume of poems and the eighth volume in an ongoing series based on his wanderings through the streets of Philadelphia.Yates's turns through city streets recall the wilderness wanderings of Bash¿ in seventeenth-century Japan, especially the wanderings of the river and mountain poets of T'ang and pre-T'ang dynasties of China. Receptive to his terrain as they were to theirs, Yates accepts the wildness outside, merging his imagination with it so that reading these poems is sharing in the mystery¿the sublimity¿of that wildness. That is why poems in this volume do not compose a discrete and grandly exotic music like that of Wallace Stevens; nor in their realism do they rely on a surrealist unreason; nor do they urge us toward stances of power, protest, or rebellion. Instead, these poems derive impact from their tone of sublime mystery drawn from the sprawl and turbulence of a great city's streets.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This book is a poetic flow of emotions going beyond combatting emotional pain and heartache. It is an experience for a larger platform that is bigger than just the concept of grief. Tragedy is discussed poetically in its rawest form and how the aftermath can impact love, despair, and hope, the emotions that people are hesitant to share but carefully keep hidden within themselves. Hope is capsuled within a few hollowed moments, combined with the cries of a soul, using an interesting play of words to help others feel as though they are not alone during the healing process or change the person's perspective on many things as they move forward with their life. It is a collection of free verse pieces that reflect the depths of a broken heart and how love is defined and remains behind when life is impacted by an unforeseen tragedy.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - My book entitled Polygamy, If God Wills It, Should Not Be a Form of Slavery Then! is written to warn people of how they shouldn't let anyone take advantage of them if they should decide to do polygamy and if polygamy is thought to be the solution to the problems of female loneliness.The book of 1 Corinthians 14:1 King James Version (KJV) says, 'Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.'I hereby state that only if any prophet or prophetess either advise you, or says God has sent them to you to suggest you to do so, should you do polygamy. So then, with the support of your family-if you have one-consider it prayerfully. Don't listen to your friends or ordinary church-goers if they suggest this.Be warned if care is not taken-polygamy can enslave you as a vulnerable person in the hands of the man and his important wife, even when done with a close relative. This is especially when polygamy is done with a female stranger who can also be described as a strange woman-who, inevitably, makes that woman who is a stranger, her, and her husband strange people.Strangers could be so-called best friends, in-laws, and anyone that's not a close relative. You think you know these people but you don't really know them. They always put on an act around you, but it's all for show. Because the heart of man is desperately wicked, who can know it except when God reveals it to you.When the devil wants to bind you with spiritual chains, like a slave in a polygamous home when you don't wish to do polygamy, you go into prayers to your maker, God or Jesus Christ, to set you free from the bondage that wants to tempt you to be enslaved to a polygamous home. Bind, instead, the negative people or forces that want to cause you problems in life, with your prayers.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This is a book with a difference. Its central focus is on the persona of the biblical Job, and it explores several underlining and eternal principles, which became reflected in the life of Job. The book highlights Job's life from many perspectives, with interesting reflections on his responses to his situation, friends' judgement, and God's final appearance. It is not a review or analysis of Job's vicissitudes or endurance in suffering, but a reflection on a life of nobility, integrity, piousness, and god-fearing attributes that were exhibited throughout this man's experience. The book can be used for personal study, individual or group retreats, group discussions, and cell group or fellowship meetings. It will appeal to the matured believer who wants to strengthen his or her walk with God, as well as those new to the faith by offering a wider perspective on one of the most notable characters in the Bible.
