Though fiction, The Triptych is firmly based on incidents in the lives of three ordinary men from the Hall family. Spanning nearly a century, this vivid narrative interweaves the fates of three generations caught in the tumult of three key historical events: the 1855 Siege of Sebastopol during the Crimean War; the Expedition to rescue General Gordon in 1884-85; and the fierce Dodecanese Campaign of 1943.While these stories form the triptych of the title, they are linked via the fate of a second triptych: an imaginary object bequeathed to James Hall by a dying Russian soldier. This passes repeatedly between the Halls and an Italian family, the Lassaros.These stories bring to life the struggles of those who had no hand in the politics that sent them to battle yet bore the brunt of its consequences. From the brutal battlefields to the quiet courage that followed, their journeys highlight the personal costs of conflicts initiated by distant politicians.Narrated by a fourth-generation Hall in the twenty-first century, himself a former soldier, The Triptych offers a window into a family's legacy across a period marked by both volatility and violence. This novel is a tribute to the often unheralded resilience of ordinary people in times of conflict. Their lives paint a vivid triptych of quiet courage, endurance and the survival of the human spirit.

There Were No Commercial Plane Crashes On 911. The events of September 11, 2001, have been the subject of much debate and conspiracy theories. This article aims to explore some claims made by individuals who argue that there were no commercial plane crashes on 9/11. By examining various pieces of evidence and arguments put forth by these individuals, we can gain a more profound understanding of the different perspectives surrounding this tragic event. I retired from Verizon and worked in telecommunications. I assisted a customer several times with several complicated issues with phones he didn't own. It turns out he had been employed by the federal government with the extremely high-security clearance of Q. A Q clearance is a type of security clearance used by the U.S. Department of Energy to grant access to Top Secret Restricted Data, Formerly Restricted Data, and National Security Information, as well as Secret Restricted Data. He entered the private sector and opened several security businesses. He doesn't own a phone or computer, he cannot have any electronic footprints. None. When I found out what he did for a living, we started discussing that there were no commercial plane crashes on 911 and the Deep State. He said, for the most part, I was definitely on the right track. Some issues, he was not at liberty to discuss. -Bob

I'll offer absolute proof of the existence of God but first, you'll have to understand a little about my life. I enjoy a strong and growing faith in Source. Not the God as depicted in the Bible who is jealous, vindictive, angry, and demanding of worship. Not the God who created hell and required the sacrifice of His Son to save us from it. Not the God who "calls' young children Home. Not the God who brings extreme trials into our lives as a form of judgment. Our God is the Ultimate, Eternal Expression of Love. To me this is Truth. It does not matter one iota to me if you believe in God or not, I mean it's a belief. Right? My manuscripts are simply to share my perception of Truth and not to "save" anybody. These are over a decade of writings and if they instill in you a growing peace, then you'll experience the "fruits" of Truth also. -Bob

The reason I titled this The Beauty Of Truth is I am enjoying a peaceful mind. I'll be 71 in November 2023. I look around and see the absolute insanity of this world; the wars, corruption, pollution, poverty, homelessness, greed, hate, lies, drug pandemic, broken families and relationships, constant bombardment of buy this and that, news networks that spread fear and lies. So on and so forth. What all this means to me is absolutely nothing. Truth to me is a peaceful mind, I know it's true because I'm experiencing it. I am very much alone but never lonely. Truth.I have a strong and growing faith in God. Not the God as depicted in the Bible who is jealous, vindictive, angry, and demanding of worship. Not the God who created hell and required the sacrifice of His Son to save us from it. Not the God who "calls' young children Home. Not the God who brings extreme trials into our lives as a form of judgment. My God is the Ultimate, Eternal Expression of Love. To me this is Truth. It does not matter one iota to me if you believe in God or not, I mean it's a belief. Right? My manuscripts are simply to share my perception of Truth and not to "save" anybody. These are over a decade of writings and if they instill in you a growing peace, then you'll experience the "fruits" of Truth also.

I had a thought, this sometimes happens and my friends become concerned. I asked Artificial Intelligence, A.I., some questions about The Bible, A Course In Miracles (A.C.I.M.) by Helen Schucman and Disappearance Of The Universe by Gary Renard. I used the Microsoft Bing search engine. I know you'll find the answers very interesting. I know I have. -Bob

God did not make this universe; the Sons of God (Christ) did. They had been given all the creative powers of the Father and wondered what it would be like to live in a universe of time and space that was separate from God and based upon duality rather than unity. The Course calls this a "mad idea".For the first time, Christ had an idea that was not shared by God and Christ knew it. He imagined what it would be like to be apart from his Creator. Forgetting to laugh about that silly idea, feeling guilty he experienced something new. Fear. The first ego was created. The mind believes that it is completely on its own. God knows absolutely nothing about this since in nonduality there is only a constant unchangeable Love. Christ made this universe through the Big Bang, composed of billions of fragments to hide from the supposed wrath of a vengeful Father. The idea of duality could not be carried out in God's reality so we created a dream universe of illusion and entered it as if falling asleep and dreaming. The trouble was that we went into such a deep state of sleep that we had no awareness that we were dreaming so we accepted the universe of illusion as real and forgot that we had a true home in the Celestial Realm. The Course says the story of Adam symbolized what happened to us Yet the Bible says that a deep sleep fell upon Adam, and nowhere is there a reference to his waking up. This created a barrier in communication between the Father and the Son so deep that God decided a correction was necessary. God's extension outward, though not His completeness, is blocked when the Sonship does not communicate with Him as one. So He thought, "My children are asleep and must be awakened." So God wanted to awaken His Sons. But there was a major problem. Whatever God places His attention on becomes as if it is real. If God entered the dream to redeem his Sons then the dream would become real to Him as well and he would also be trapped. There would be the risk of both the Father and the Son becoming eternally separated from their true home, eternally losing their identity.To solve the problem and allow God to keep his attention focused on Reality He created a special agent, The Holy Spirit, that could be a bridge between the two states of existence. So God created the Holy Spirit, Who was God's answer to the separation. He has created the Holy Spirit as the Mediator between perception and knowledge. Without this link with God, perception would have replaced knowledge forever in your mind. With this link with God, the perception will become so changed and purified that it will lead to understanding. The Holy Spirit entered the collective sleeping mind of Christ. A first Christ was healed and woke up in Heaven. In other words, we are All split off as "part" of the One Christ Mind. The Course repeatedly asserts there can only be one Son. Unity can only create unity. Multiplicity cannot originate from Oneness. If all His creations are His Sons, everyone must be an integral part of the whole Sonship. The Sonship in its oneness transcends the sum of its parts. Therefore the term Sons of God is used by Jesus for convenience in addressing his students as they believe they are.On the other hand, the Son of God is the term used to denote who we truly are as Christ, the Identity of Oneness we shall awaken to after our dream of multiplicity is undone.

Love has honed in and harnesses the glow of lives for so many years. The ways it fills hearts all over the world is truly immeasurable. Spiritually uplifting promise and hope for generations to come. Giving the feeling of serenity when reciprocated and ultimately used properly with guidance and faith deems essential. Love has been the nature and the nurturing of the beast within us all. It has been able to tame and calm down some of life's flaws plagued with hate and dissension. For Her Love expresses the meaning of sharing thoughts about joy and life, capturing the essence of emotions and feelings woven into rhymes, giving us all the reason to share moments of past and present times with that special person, and exhausting all possibilities defining the meaning of staying committed to another. Romance still exists and is alive and well. For Her Love is modern-day chivalry.

First published in 1981, this unique study discusses the evolution of Plato's thought through the actual developments in Athenian democracy.

From 1966 to 1971 the First Australian Task Force was part of the counterinsurgency campaign in South Vietnam. Though considered a small component of the Free World effort in the war, these troops from Australia and New Zealand were in fact the best trained and prepared for counterinsurgency warfare. However, until now, their achievements have been largely overlooked by military historians. The Search for Tactical Success in Vietnam sheds new light on this campaign by examining the thousands of small-scale battles that the First Australian Task Force was engaged in. The book draws on statistical, spatial and temporal analysis, as well as primary data, to present a unique study of the tactics and achievements of the First Australian Task Force in Phuoc Tuy Province, South Vietnam. Further, original maps throughout the text help to illustrate how the Task Force's tactics were employed.

Mr. Hall has abstracted the earliest of the land records (the patents) and grouped the information by owners and by hundreds. The level of detail included clearly separates this work from rent roll abstracts and land records and makes it more useful. Patentees and other persons named in the patent document are identified and the relationships or involvement of such persons is defined. This includes relatives, former tract owners, persons transported, persons completing service, surveyors, public officials, contributors of rights to acreage, trades and, occasionally, employers. The work is amply footnoted to include any unusual information found including personal relationships, disputes, and even an occasional reference to a burial site. Also included are tracts now located in adjoining counties that were granted as Anne Arundel tracts. Hall has identified virtually all the Anne Arundel patentees along with others who owned the land or warrant or acted as owner. In addition, he includes references to tract location by river, creek, or branch. In nearly all cases he identifies neighbors and their tracts and, using data gleaned from other records such as probate, judicial proceedings, church and marriage records, he has identified and included many grants not included in the Rent Rolls. An every-name index and an Index of Tracts add to the value of this work.

An examination of the society-wide relationship crisis that threatens us all—and a strategic look at how we can reverse it--It is the crisis that everyone feels but that has gone unnamed. We see the pieces: families disintegrating; communities in chaos; businesses losing the trust of customers and employees; political and religious discourse that sows dysfunction and divide. Yet until now, no one has connected the dots that reveal the larger narrative. Our broken relationships have a death grip on economic, political, and social advancements that capitalism, democracy, social programs, and tax policy have been unable to break.  Cumulatively this crisis feeds an emerging caste system: Individuals and organizations that possess superior relationships have, while those with deteriorating relationships are destined to have not.  In This Land of Strangers, Robert Hall lays the crisis bare, and you will be shocked at the magnitude of destruction he reveals. Hall’s best-selling business book, The Streetcorner Strategy for Winning Local Markets, helped spawn the customer relationship management movement.  Now, with deep passion and insight borne from three decades of study, he widens the lens to look at the breadth of our relational decline and the societal trends that got us here. Focusing on four key domains—home, work, politics, and faith—he presents wide-ranging research that explores the unraveling of our life-giving relationships and the attendant costs.  He debunks the assumption that we can build better lives and a stronger society on crumbling relationships. With engaging narrative style and stories, Hall looks at modern life through the prism of relationships. He challenges readers to embrace three aims that will reverse the forces that gave birth to today’s land of strangers to usher in a new era—the Age of Relationship.
