Imagine walking through a beautiful park but having to stick to the concrete pathways. This book explores the different places we go when searching for our 'big patch of grass', one we can feel between our toes and run our fingers through - whether this is an escape to a farm in the countryside or all the way to the other side of the world.

Gino Gammaldi has a clear memory of the early beginnings of his family who migrated from Italy to Australia in the mid 1950s and has tried to portray those memories in this book in a manner that is sure to engage everyone's interest. Much of the earlier parts of this book are written through the eyes of a child, growing up among everything that should probably relate only to those who are adult enough to cope with such hardships, temptations, sorrows, and disappointments. But, as a child, these elements became a part of the simple life that was as normal as anything one could imagine. But, in later stages, Gino also remembers all the good and fun times, and he portrays these beautifully and graphically through the many characters you will encounter in the two volumes of his book. He brings them to life and engages the reader, simply by the humour and by the special qualities that each one of these characters magnifies and how all of these experiences impacted on his own life.

After a century of humiliation, China re-emerged as an independent and sovereign nation following the1949Communist victory in the post-WW2 civil war. Chairman Mao Tse-tung said that "the Chinese people (then) comprising one quarterof humanity, have now stood up..." His grand mission, as well as the aspiration of many Chinese, was for China "to become rich andstrong" again, which it had been historically for millennia.From a dirt poor country, China's phenomenal progress led to its rise as the world's second largest economy in 2010; its GDP grewfrom US$216.8 billion in 1978 to US$8.2 trillion in 2012.New China has freed over 700 million people from the clutches of extreme poverty -- more than twice the present population of theUnited States.China's urbanization has also been unparalleled in history -- from 17.9% (180 million urban residents) in 1978 to 51.27% (710 million) by the end of 2012, when its urban population exceeded its rural for the first time in its long history of over 5,000 years.China's previous renaissance occurred during the Northern Song dynasty (960-1126)., about one millennium ago.The present leadership in Beijing has described the "Chinese Dream" as a work in progress over a time span of one century (1949-2049),when China will be completely reconstructed and rejuvenated.The "rise of China" has been named the top news story of the 21st century by the Global Language Monitor. And, it's probablythe greatest story ever of the development and transformation of a major nation in the annals of the human race.

The book assumes that you have worked with Excel for at least six months. We start by introducing you to the Ribbon and how to customize the user interface. You learn how to automate worksheet operations with macros. We take you through creating custom formats, data validation, worksheet outlines, data consolidation, error checking, etc. We look at intermediate and advanced functions such as Indirect, Match, Find, etc. and show you how to combine these functions to solve real-world problems. We discuss business models and apply statistical and financial functions. The rest of the topics we treat include using table formulas, creating range names, using names for formulas, Date and Time functions, error checking, workbook/worksheet protection, etc. We look at the Lookup functions (Vlookup, Hlookup, etc.) and the functions that can be used in lieu of the lookup functions to perform more complex lookups. Every chapter of the book contains exercises to reinforce your learning experience.We believe that practice makes perfect, so at the end of the book, we provide you with over 120 hands-on exercises (step-by-step answers provided). We guarantee that after going through all the exercises in the book, you will be on your way to becoming an Excel expert.

This book is the fulfillment of a dream I had back in the year 2009. I had a very vivid dream that I would one day write a book entitled: The Obedience Call.In these end days God is calling Christians all around the world to train themselves into obedience, because obedience is not just important, it is absolutely necessary. Christians must complete the state of their sanctification in order to be ready for the Rapture.This book is a collection of five sermons on obedience. In the first four chapters you will learn about how to be a solider for Christ, the importance of walking in humility, meekness and patience, how to position yourself for God's favor, and how you can become a vessel of prudence for God to dwell in. In the final chapter you will learn about how it is necessary for you to fulfill your destiny, how we must live worthily by walking in obedience, how we must fight the good fight of faith, the true meaning of God's grace, an explanation of Philippians 1:6, and how we must sow in the Spirit to reap eternal life.

Jennifer''s memories were sad but were also elevated with her ability to see humor in some of her experiences.

Politics could be described as a kind of bartering that enables us to overcome the discontinuities in our lives by resolving conflicts in a peaceful rather than unruly manner, and seeking a sphere in which there is some common or general accord. It is thus the art of compromise, conciliation, and negotiation rather than brute or naked force where it concerns meaningful and effective decision-making. It is also an attempt to establish some legitimate authority in response to the different needs that arise in society, and create a system of benefits and burdens that are binding on all. To this extent it is about the means and not the end, or at least the sufficiency of any means as opposed to the morality of any end. How to achieve what is good is thus to achieve what is useful, or at least the best strategy or plan that suits the circumstance at hand. In this case we do not say that if the end is right or wrong then the means are value-free, but that since the means are value-laden then the end is value-free. Given that wielding a blunt instrument to achieve a result is neither ethical nor unethical, the best we can hope for is a more ethical approach to the fashioning of any singular or conjugate set of means. So it is with our diplomats in their global dealings and our policy makers in the world of home affairs. There is another view however that suggests that the difference between the political and the non-political hinges on the distinction between a public and a private life, with the assumption that what is true of the one must also be true of the other. That is, that politics is an ethical activity that replaces right behaviour with just behaviour; that it is the pursuit of human betterment through ostensibly public means just as ethics is the pursuit of human betterment through ostensibly private means. In answer to the question where this line should be drawn the most common response is between civil society and that entity we call the state. State institutions such as the government, the judiciary and the armed forces could be regarded as public because they touch all aspects of communal life. On the other hand, institutions such as the family, business conglomerates, trade unions and divers clubs could be regarded as private because they support only limited aims and are voluntary to join as well as voluntary to quit.(Although of course, not voluntary to join in the case of the family).This may also generate a particular perception of public life as being good in one sense but bad in another. Participation in the activities of the state may be deemed worthwhile if this is seen to involve interaction amongst individuals who are both free and equal in their regard for one another. On the other hand, state participation may be seen in a negative light if this limits the range of our choices, especially if it interferes with family commitments and everyday leisure pursuits. But if politics is concerned principally with questions about the state a related question concerns its origin, whether it has evolved naturally or whether it is a purely human artifice borne of certain indispensable needs. This controversy has a long history dating back to the Greeks, and Aristotles is typical of the kind of approach that supports the former. Political associations are regarded as natural progressions starting with those that are simple and working towards those that are more complex. The pairing of a male and a female is essential for the sake of procreation, and that introduces the basic unit of the family. The pairing of a master and a slave is essential for the sake of rulership, and that introduces the primacy of mental agility over physical strength. What we mean by the head of any household is then extended to the head of any village, although in this case the lord or master acquires a certain status which demands the strict loyalty of his subjects. A convening of several villages is then th
