    This is a vision about ultimate Femininity and the part it plays in the creation of the Universe. This very simple prophecy is derived from the evidence that lies before us. For example it traces a sacred link beginning when teams of Physicists journey into space, and through the Forces of Nature come face to face with the Blessed Trinity. On the journey we meet Larry and Everina who is a cadet on board the good ship Callisto as it hurdles outwards into the unknown. We meet Hiroshi and Jill, who marry while inParadiseand hoping the bond will hold when they return to earth. Listen in bewilderment to Spirinda (The Holy Spirit) as she relates her great fete - the production of her loving Universe to be cherished and saved at all cost, despite the threats from a cruel Ibis. This story is a bold proposal representing the most likely order of events that may lie ahead, while also attempting to answer many questions, yet giving great hope to humanity.

    This simple book has been over three decades in the making! It started based on an observed gap between the service delivered by businesses and other institutions and the service desired by buyers. Over the years, we have witnessed numerous examples of bad service and also realized that for the most part, service excellence as an organizational goal was nonexistent or at least not pursued actively. As entrepreneurs, consultants and educators that have worked with hundreds of start-ups and small businesses (along with a bunch of non-profits, governmental agencies and large corporations) we also concluded that many organizations were missing the opportunity to focus on simple, customer-centered service.This book is written especially for those organizations - large, and especially small - that can utilize service excellence as a strategic tool to build competitive advantage, brand equity and revenue growth. This process starts with awareness, is driven by introspection and self-evaluation and is monetized by placing service excellence at the forefront of operational management. We hope you not only enjoy reading this book, but that you also utilize the simple, low-cost suggestions provided on your journey to employing The Service Solution for your enterprise and unique situation.

    This Book shares the true Knowledge of God. It gives the facts of Creation, beginning with the revealing of God Himself, through the revealing of the spirit beings, to the creation of man. It reveals the true methods of worshiping God in this life, as well as revealing the coming judgments of God on the heavens and on the earth, and it reveals the details of the Hereafter, including Heaven and hell. The oneness of God and the oneness of religion among all people is stressed to the believers of God, just as He revealed it to His servants throughout the ages.The defects of Christianity are revealed, as well as the errors concerning the crucifixion, the resurrection, and the Passion of the Christ. The details of God's Truth as It exists in Judaism, in Hinduism, in Buddhism, and in Islam are also revealed. Most of the Knowledge in this Book comes from Jesus himself, as this Book contains more of Jesus' spoken words than any other documentary on Jesus. The Bible contains only a fraction of Jesus' Message. The rest of the Knowledge in this Book was revealed to the prophets of God, as documented in the Word of God, and this is the prophesized Book that must be opened in the End Times, for the saving of mankind (Isa. 30:8,52:7, Dan. 12:4,9, Hab. 2:14, Rev. 10:10,11). This Book is prepared as a Warning to unbelievers and as a Guide to those desiring Eternal Life.

    This is the story of one man's journey from one end of the world to the other. It's a journey that begins in the coldwater tenements of the North End of Boston, leapfrogs to the foothills of Phu Bai in Vietnam and comes full circle to the immured tenements of the North End. Author Ralph J. Masciulli grew up in a close-knit historical section of Boston. It was a close-knit neighborhood because it was comprised primarily of people of Italian extraction in the early part of the century. It was a milieu where everyone knew one another, everyone cooked Italian, and everyone spoke Italian. It is historical because two landmarks grace its landscape - the Old North Church from where the "One, if by land, and two, if by sea" signal lanterns were hung to warn of the British march from Boston on April 18, 1775, and the house in which Paul Revere lived a short distance away in North Square.For the first two centuries Boston was home to the fashionable and elite Brahmins who were first to establish roots in the North End. Some of their mansions still grace the Boston landscape. After the Revolution there were changes that reshaped the North End. The Brahmins moved out to points south and west leaving behind a settlement in which the Irish were able to settle after the potato famine of 1842. The potato crop failure led to a great influx of Irish immigrants who set sail for anywhere - and landed in Boston. Many came from humble beginnings and established roots in the North End taking up residence in the homes vacated by the Brahmins. They worked menial jobs to gain upward mobility and their children enrolled in local schools. As they prospered they moved north to Charleston and south to South Boston or Southie as it is called, allowing a new generation of immigrants - the Italians - to settle in the North End after the Civil War.As the Italians moved in, the North End took on significant changes. The Jews were the last remaining group to exit leaving the North End comprised of residents primarily of Italian extraction. They brought their culture to the North End and made significant contributions to society in the field of education, science, politics, art, music, theater, and entertainment to mention a few. They used their entrepreneurial expertise to open businesses to provide services. Here is where Ralph Masciulli grew up; sampling his mother's meatballs and gravy before the usual Sunday pasta dinner, and then meeting in Coogie's coffee chop for the usual morning discourse with friends and the honing of his intellectual skills. He demonstrates his Italian ethos and lifestyle throughout the book: where he "hung out", the camaraderie he shared with his North End buddies and the servicemen in Vietnam who came from other parts of the country - and from diverse cultures.The author draws on his intellectual acumen and Italian upbringing to deliver a journey that took him full circle - from the "caverns" of the North End to war-torn Vietnam and back. This is Ralph Masciulli's story - one that delivers a unique account of his childhood, his upbringing and the activities he shared with his North End buddies; one that traces his activities and those of other servicemen in a heated war zone; one the truly comes full circle.

    Our parents and grandparents do have sex! There, I've said it! Love and Sex: Are We Ever Too Old?!? is an opportunity to revisit the idea that the need for love and sex regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation or marital status is normal and natural. The book is a collage of photos of older couples, cartoons, selected poetry about sexuality and couplehood as well as newspaper articles and reviews of books and films that have celebrated late-life love and sexuality. The book is an original way to teach adult children, adult grandchildren and the current cohorts of aging individuals to understand and accept the sexuality of maturing adults. In so doing, they can help transform the meaning of love and sexuality up to the very limits of life itself.

    Occasionally there comes to a few fortunate communities persons thoroughly dedicated to collecting and preserving stories of the past.Montezuma county in South-western Colorado is one of these few fortunate localities. It is even more fortunate than others in having a person of the caliber of Ira S. Freeman to record its history.Mr. Freeman is the only living representative of the pioneer newspapermen who helped settle this part of Colorado and who knew most of the early settlers personally. He has gone to great expense of time and money collecting and writing this history, and now having it published in permanent book form.Mr. Freeman has dwelt with authority on the history of his community from the early times of the cliff dwellers to the present time and even hazards a glimpse into the future. He has gathered an amazing amount of pictures of the old-timers which are reproduced as found, with no thought of retouching. He has done painstaking research and interviewed all of the living pioneers -some of whom have passed on since he started this work.This book will long be preserved and used as the standard history of early times in Montezuma County, and as such will be an invaluable work for all homes in this locality.

    Christine was my big sister. She was my "bestest" best friend sometimes, and a just-all-right friend when we had two very different views on a given matter. Through all of those times, I loved her and she made a great difference in my life. Believe it or not, we were both born on September 3rd! This was most unusual since we were not twins. I was born five years later. We were two sisters as different as they came; we looked nothing alike. She was short, petite, and a brilliant homemaker who loved to read. "Tene," as she was affectionately called, was talented in arts and crafts, sewing, knitting, and cooking. However, for all the things that were different and unique in our lives...we were sisters who had always shared so much. We had a strong love for God and family. Enjoy this poetic, true life journey about a sister so dear. She was the greatest! Her greatness was in her service--- not just service to her family but to everyone she encountered. She's really not gone; just not seen. In my heart and my thoughts, our love will always be remembered as something very special: gentle, joyful, strong, and giving. We shared one of the most wonderful blessings: the incredible and precious gift of being "sisters."

    Continuing the journey begun in The Mysteries of the Redemption: A Treatise on Out-of-Body Travel and Mysticism, the author takes you on an out-of-body journey into the worlds of the galactic heavens, the worlds beyond death. Traveling the road of terminal illness, you'll follow the footsteps of a soul preparing for death, learn from those who have already crossed over, and witness the after-death experience of a soul as she leaves this world. Opening the door to the ancestors, you will meet those who have gone before, hear their stories, be amazed at their watchful care over the current generation, and see how they live in the world beyond. Perhaps the most important thing you will discover in GALACTICA: A Treatise on Death, Dying and the Afterlife, is the true purpose and meaning of this life, and what is required of each one of us to fulfill the purpose of our incarnation. Having included paintings and music of that which she's seen and heard while out-of-body, the author demonstrates a grand panorama of the worlds beyond our own and the infinite meaning which underlies human existence.To read reviews about this and other books by the author, go to www.outofbodytravel.org
