Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Based on the Port St. Lucie Legend .What drives someone to kill Is it something within them, or an outside force that influences them One of Florida's most overlooked serial killers (Gerard John Schaefer) wrought havoc along the Treasure Coast and Hutchinson Island in the 1970s. His reign of terror consisted of unspeakable acts of torture, rape, and murder by an ancient oak tree. He hanged people there, buried their bodies, and came back often to pillage what remained. It is believed that Schaefer's evil seeped into the tree and surrounding area, leaving a blemish on the otherwise beautiful nature walk in Oak Hammock Park in Port Saint Lucie. When night descends around the tree, the atmosphere changes completely; hundreds of stories are offered up about personal experiences of a true-life haunting.Continuing with the legend that is pulled into modern day, Satanists commune by the tree in honor of their fallen idol. Terrible things happen around the tree, which seems to have a certain allure to it . . . making people commit unimaginable acts.This sick and grizzly legend is so deep, so convoluted and wicked, you won't believe what you read. Whatever you do, don't visit the Devil Tree after dusk. You will never be the same. This is not just a blurb for the back of a book, but a warning from many people--including uniformed officers who have come forth to share their experiences at the tree. I have seen both confusion and truth in their eyes.This is a must-read series for all Floridians and those intrigued by legends, the supernatural, and the occult.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Joel Comiskey explica que en la estructura de G-12.3 un pastor de jornada completa supervisa a doce líderes celulares, mientras que un líder no ordenado puede ocuparse del cuidado de tres líderes de las células hijas y continúa dirigiendo un grupo celular abierto. El número tres es un número más realista y manejable que les da a los voluntarios no ordenados una meta factible: multiplicar la célula original tres veces y cuidar a cada uno de esos líderes mientras sigue dirigiendo la célula original.Aunque el número tres es importante en la Biblia, reunir a tres líderes celulares en un G-3 no abre la puerta a una bendición especial. Los pastores podrían, de hecho, decidir pedirles a los líderes no ordenados que cuiden cinco líderes celulares. O se podrían sentir guiados a desarrollar un sistema de G-10.5 (los pastores del personal cuidan diez líderes celulares mientras los líderes no ordenados cuidan a cinco líderes para la multiplicación). La estructura G-12.3 está basado en los principios, construido sobre las observaciones de un espacio realista de cuidado entre los líderes no ordenados y los líderes de la multiplicación.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - \* Finalist for the Headmistress Press Charlotte Mew Prize Renée Vivien (née Pauline Mary Tarn, 1877-1909) was an English expatriate who made her home in Paris during the Belle Époque. In 1903, Vivien's collection of translations and adaptations from the Ancient Greek poetry of Sappho became one of the first works of modern European lesbian literature to be published by a lesbian writer under her real name. This courageous act was the death-sentence of her literary career. Parisian critics who had praised the mysterious 'R. Vivien' as a young man of poetic genius began to snub at first and then simply ignore the newly un-closeted woman poet. Even in the face of ridicule and disrespect, Vivien continued to write and publish poetry, short stories, translations, plays, epigrams, and a novel based on her real-life romances with Natalie Clifford Barney and the Baroness Hélène van Zuylen van Nyevelt van Haar (née Rothschild). Vivien's poetry is now available in English translation by Samantha Pious: A Crown of Violets (Headmistress Press, 2015). I think it's very rare to encounter a new lesbian poet through translation and I am very excited to support this collection in its positive obsession and literary innovation alike. If it is that we are encouraged to each become the lover of Renée Vivien through her work, then this translator has succeeded in making the poet's wishes as transparent as an invitation can be: 'The nave has been adorned to welcome you aright.'Meg Day, Judge of the Charlotte Mew Prize This is an invaluable collection that brings Renée Vivien to life for English-speaking readers. Émigrée and sexual adventurer, Vivien wrote poetry strewn with broken harps and beautiful corpses. Pious's delicate but fearless translations draw out the bruised passions and troubadour rhythms that make Vivien essential reading for anyone interested in lesbian literature, fin-de-siècle poetics, or the agonies of sensual love.Kate Thomas, author of Postal Pleasures: Sex, Scandal and Victorian Letters.…
