Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - In this collection of essays, stories, and poetry, author Jim Stratton focuses on the sheer beauty of nature and the human connection to the natural world. Endowed with Stratton's own illustrations, Waist Deep in Broom Sedge celebrates the splendor that can be found in the world around us such as…in water, snow, color, light, fog, and rain. In the poetry selection, 'While It Was Still Snowing,' Stratton praises the wonder of snow. There is no beauty compared To snow's shadow and light; No blues as coldly blue, No whites as brightly white, As when it is still snowing. I walk through the cold wood And embrace the pearly glow Reflecting beneath my cap hood. Based on personal observations and theories, the works in this compilation show that we are the caretakers of this earth and we should seek ways to live in harmony with nature. We need to open our eyes, slow down, and breathe in the wonders of the natural world as the essence of nature is within us all.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Who can say how words in this book will be received Will readers respond to a message about immigration and resilience I know my own reaction.I came to the conclusion that nobody would buy in. That was a switch because I had believed people would eat up my every word.As I wrote, a change came over… me. I began to believe that my words would also change others.Even Warren Buffett, the modern King Midas.I began to see that my book was not just about emigration and resilience but also about repentance and redemption.I accepted the notion that this was my Pactolus, the river which had lifted the burden of greed and threat from Midas, whose food and drink---and daughter---turned into gold at his touch.Suddenly, Midas was free to live like a person who could touch his food, drink and family members without bad results. He was freed from his addiction to wealth.My 77-year-span unfolded before my eyes. I recorded all traumas in detail---a million words, hundreds of pages.Slowly, I began to understand that I was having a conversion experience.I went from admiration and love of pennies, nickels, dimes, riches, wealth---an addicted state of mind---to the realization that I had a condition which I call Buffett mania.As Buffett's biographer Schroeder wrote this year, Buffett did not control money. Rather, money controlled Warren Buffett.In Omaha , Buffett stole his sister's bicycle--because he wanted a trade-in as he bought a bicycle for himself.He shop-lifted golf balls at Sears in Washington so he could sell balls himself.During my careers as chemical engineer and stock-market analyst, I observed Buffett mania in my engineering and business associates but overlooked my addiction.I still have traces of this mental illness. Now I have decided to be a man---to confront Warren Buffett with my book.Buffett's biographer describes his mania in a new biography, The Snowball. American preoccupation with economics played a part in Warren Buffett's so-called success and so-called wealth.There is an antidote to the poison of addiction to greed---and that is this book, My Fourteen Lives.My resilience, which saved my life 13 times, is nothing less than a gift from God, who will also save Warren Buffett from his greed.It's not just about my life and that of Warren Buffett because 500,000 other lives hang in the balance. Addiction to greed has targeted many victims for a hellish life and death.Time for repentance and redemption !Time to give away your money, Mr. Buffett. In your own lifetime. Do it yourself. As Carnegie did. As Rockefeller did. As Morgan did.Time for everybody on 'Wall Street' to refuse the end-of-year bonus.Buy books instead. Buy The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the business of life. $35 for 960 pages !Buy My Fourteen Lives: the many lives of Matthew Valentin PerryGive them as presents. Read them yourself. ( You never know.).

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Of more than twenty book titles the Lord has placed upon my heart to write, this is the third. The Body of Christ is in dire need of the message of each and every book, this one being the most timely. Many influential Christians are being taken out by sickness on a regular basis; therefore somethi…ng must be amiss in today's church. The shortfall is evidently in the modern believer's lack of true biblical knowledge of the sickness and healing subject. This book fills in a multitude of gaps in the Christian's understanding of one of Satan's most subtle weapons. To my knowledge, no other book on the market contains the revelation found in this work. It will absolutely revolutionize your life.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - In ¿JERRI, A Black Woman¿s Life In the Media,¿ Jerri Lange has written a personal, candid revelation of the situation of a black woman in the early days of media. She reminds us of a time when sheroes like Ms. Lange challenged powerful institutions, no matter the consequences.Armed with her father…¿s admonition to not allow anyone to interfere with her dreams, author Jerri Lange set out on a life¿s journey that would take her to the pinnacle of San Franciscös media and political power. A single mother, Ms. Lange accomplished this while raising three distinguished sons, including Michael, a director, producer and Malcolm X delineator, and Ted, a regular on the television series ¿Love Boat.¿Ms. Lange¿s journalistic career began at the San Francisco Chronicle, where she worked along side such luminaries as Art Hoppe, Charles McCabe and Count Marco, and her mentor, Scott Newhall. She continued with tours at stations KEMO, KBHK, KGO and KQED Television. The dream ended when Ms. Lange delivered her famous speech, ¿Blacks In Broadcasting,¿ in which she criticized the negative images of blacks in the media. After this speech she found the industry that had formerly welcomed her as the token pioneering African-American newswoman and television host, began to give her the cold shoulder. She was eventually, in her words, `black balled.¿But if some members of the segregated San Francisco media thought that they had defeated Jerri Lange, they underestimated the resiliency of Laura and Turner Wilson¿s daughter. Ms. Lange began to tour the world, which provided her with the opportunity to draw revealing portraits of a dictator¿s wife, Arnold Toynbee, and others. Along the way she was feted by members of the British aristocracy and was an invited guest to a king¿s wedding. Ms. Lange also gives the reader revealing portraits of Malcolm X, Shirley MacLaine, Sammy Davis, Jr. and Daisaku Ikeda. She continued her career at KHET, a public television station in Hawaii.With African American faces disappearing from television news rooms, and the media establishment having abandoned their goal of diversifying the industry by the year two thousand, a challenge made by the late Robert Maynard, Ms. Lange¿s effort as a pioneer African-American news woman is especially timely.
