The question is: Will the African people allow this to happen?In calling attention to the stakes, the author seeks to answer questions such as: How have dictators come to power throughout Africa? What role does the military play in Africa? What can be done to stem rampant corruption? What role does populism play in Africa's politics?The author also examines the role that guns play in everyday life, the recent military coup in the West African state of Mali, and how various nations have responded to military coups. Ultimately, the author concludes that the only way for Africans to control their destiny is to: Unite against their dictators. Build liberal democracies across the continent. Build an African Dfense Alliance "e;A.D.A"e; & one currency for Africa to be named "e;Africa"e;.

This book contains personal experiences with Jesus Christ, His Mother and His Saints. It reveals hidden traps by the evil one and its friends. When Jesus encouraged me to write in 2006, I was relieved and happy. I thought about the experiences I had of Him in the past and could write about that. I had no idea that four books would evolve from this encouragement by Jesus. In this book the story continues whereby Jesus uses my life situations to reveal His power and wisdom. Jesus takes me through many experiences so others can be enlightened and aware of certain circumstances in their lives. I am not to keep these things to myself but to let them be known. Jesus is anxious for others to come to know Him. He walked among humans on earth and is neither a myth nor a liar. In the Bible, He was revealed several times as God. A statement I saw on this book read: 'Steeped in the profound traditions of Catholic mysticism.' I agree with this statement to a point but to be a child of God one does not have to be steeped in Catholic Mysticism. Most of the churches I attend are Catholic, they are mystical, but mysticism can be found in every church based on Christ. The traditions of the Church are not for Catholics only. They are for everyone who wants to indulge in them. Jesus did not come to place us into churches with particular names, but to save everyone. 'He who believes in me and is baptised will be saved (Mt 15:16). Another statement I saw about the book read: 'It is thought provoking and passionate.'I would agree that it is definitely thought provoking because it is not what the normal human being would experience in their everyday life. These things are there but people are not realising what is going around them. These things are not tangible or visible in the normal sense. I believe the passion must be contained in the style of my writing and my determination to pen everything. Jesus wanted do relay something to the world and I believe He has done so in these books. We are walking in a state of unsafety, and no one is telling us anything concerning this. Our homes, our cars, our streets, our churches, our supermarkets, products we buy, and even our workplaces are unsafe. These are just a some of the unsafe settings Jesus has pointed out to me as having evil and evil workers lurking to make our environments difficult and unsafe. The main solution to this problem is for people to turn to God and refuse to live in a society where He is obscured and ignored.

When he was just five years old, Rupert Neville innocently walked through a bedroom door and into his first nightmare. At that time, there were no secrets in his world. Sadly, it would not be the first dark secret he would be asked to keep. In a raw recounting of his experiences, Neville details how growing up entrenched in a religious group forced him to question, and ultimately hide, his homosexuality. As he reveals how he became more involved in their teachings, even preaching their beliefs to others, he also discloses how he found himself caught in a web of human spiders who exploited him. While dealing with the resulting self-imposed guilt for much of his life, the effects of his sexuality and the abuse became so entangled that Neville spent years attempting to pull them apart. He shares his candid story with the hope that it might not only shed a guiding light for survivors of abuse who struggle to accept themselves, but also celebrate the peace experienced by embracing one's sexual identity. Butterfly Road is the true story of a sexual abuse survivor who recounts his experiences, reveals the consequences and, most importantly, speaks of the hope and power of healing.
Often passed down through generations, furiousity is a learned behavior that feeds racism, bullying, sexism, and all the sayings and decisions that make us fearful and obnoxious. Thankfully, it is possible to stamp out this somewhat contrived feeling of anger and teach adults that speaking with love is the only way to show a child that they are adored, clever, and that they have what they need to be happy. Maudie K uses her personal story and examples to challenge anyone who deals with children to intervene when they hear harmful words spoken to youngsters of all ages. While revealing insight into her dark childhood experiences and healthy relationship with her father who understood the impact of destructive communication, Maudie demonstrates why it is important for adults to interrupt negative talk, stand up for innocent victims, and teach them to be strong and love themselves, inside and out. Furiousity shares one woman's personal story and insights into why it is imperative that adults interrupt and convert negative communication into positive statements that allow children to grow and be mentally healthy. The next time you hear someone say something cruel and hurtful to any child, find a way to be a serious but kind intervention to stop the 'sledging' or 'cringe'. If that is happening to a child in your life, then be someone they can trust and feel safe to tell the story to. Every cent of profit will go to a registered Australian charity associated with the welfare of children. The details are known only to the publishers, the charity and a few family and friends to maintain the privacy of the parties involved.
He was just married but still shoplifting, breaking and entering, pulling guns. He was evil, but wanted salvation. A charismatic neighbor, smelling this, fed him Hussite truths, and then bang!: he and his wife get baptized. Suddenly he's a fanatic, drops his friends, dismisses all plans, and enrols to become a Seventh-day Hussite minister. He graduates as one of the chosen few who can go out to recruit souls. He pulls big crowds in Sydney. In Papua New Guinea the villagers tell him Hussite missionaries tricked them out of their mountain for a bag of shells. They want their mountain back. He gives it to them! The Church is furious-but backers in high places get him a scholarship to the USA. There he's the Moses from Melbourne, the hot-shot evangelist from Down Under, swaggering across campus and perfecting his soul-winning stage show-until, on a dare, he discovers secret papers that show his religion is a sham. His mind is tumbling! He concludes his study and retreats to New Zealand. Soon Hussitism is defending itself against religious fraud. It closes ranks, whitewashes its history, purges hundreds of ministers. He becomes a target, is spied upon, lied about, goes from superstar to outcast. He moves sideways, undertakes a PhD in America, keeps his head down. But they hit him with a new ambush. This time he's too weary to go on. And his wife wanted out. And so, at 43, he headed home to the Australian bush, no money, no prospects. But he's a fighter: he sued them for the way they treated him, and he beat the bastards.
The book is an invitation to join harbingers of the Holistic Life Awareness. All there is, is but one thing: Life. All inside and outside, above and below, in the water, air or ground, in the sky is Life. One Life. Universal Principles, unlike values, are objective and internal- innate. The principles are not an invention, but immutable laws of the Universe applied to human Life. That realisation brings us to Holistic Life Awareness, our true nature, our Spirituality. Being a Spiritual person is not the same as being a religious person. One can be spiritual without following any specific religion. Awareness of Oneness of Life and Kinship makes every separation the Life opposing ideas. The book presents the way of applying Holistic Awareness in business and as the best healing practice. As everything starts with a thought, the book offers a Thought Replacement Station to replace harmful for beneficial. Our thoughts create our feelings dictating our actions, which become our life experiences. Visit website: holisticlifeawareness.com.au

There are many aspects to healing-healing the body, healing the mind and the influence of your soul spirit. We can achieve good health with modern medicine and nutrition, surgery and public health measures, but what you keep in your mind will be decisive, for you can broadcast good health to all the living cells in your body. Healing is multidimensional and involves our different levels of human body and eternal soul spirit, resident in the unconscious levels of your mind. Healing the world too has become vital and this involves our thoughts. In studying healing, we see who we are and what we are doing here in this life. We see healing of body mind with many techniques, medical, surgical, and healing of spirit through life. The spiritual healing processes involve planes of spirit within our levels of mind-conscious and unconscious. In the unconscious-mind we find our relationship to the Divine, the power of the universe, All That Is, called God. Belief is important. The combination of medicine, science and spiritual philosophy with mysteries held in trust by religions through time. In our overpopulated world the planet needs healing both by enhancing its regeneration and by refreshing it's Spirit. Enjoy the journey.

The town of Buckleboo Creek in tropical North Queensland was known as a tropical paradise. But engineer Sam Gawler learned from the moment he hit the towns main street that the place had a seedy underbelly. Gawler was nominally a'Trouble Shooter for the giant mining corporation which dominated the town. But the unorthodox methods he used to sort out the company's problems were described by some who knew him as those of a 'Hitman'.

Now the company needed him at their goldmine in Buckleboo Creek. Gawler had been their first and only choice. He had spent several years travelling to sort out difficult issues at the company's trouble spots in many parts of the world. He had always come up trumps.

Only in retrospect did Felicity realize that walking along mud banks that separated paddy fields in rural India and sitting at the local well for hours on end observing the villagers - who were also observing her - was somewhat incongruous for a European child with light coloured eyes. Likewise, being placed in an orphanage at the age of one when her mother died. Felicity had an unusual way out from her deprivation at the age of twelve when she joined the Deccan Queen railway journey at an elite girls' boarding school run by nuns from Oxford, England graduating with a Cambridge High School Certificate at the age of eighteen. This story traces the stepping stones from the foundling home in Bombay to Felicity stepping off a P&O ship in Sydney, Australia. The timeframe of the story is in the 1930's. 1940's and 1950's, a time of great change as India transitioned from a British colony to an independent nation.
