After a grisly car crash one winter's evening, four celebrities find themselves in a kooky afterworld. As they await their final fates, they each have one shot at redeeming their-selfish-selves. Of course, the hardest part is admitting their damage, physical AND emotional. At least they get to visit Life each night as ghosts. Revisiting their fake lives and accessing the hilarious remnants firsthand is a strong start (or reality check, depending upon one's view).

You think your job is tedious? Try being the Harbinger of Evil for a day.I dare you... What's the Devil to do when his fire no longer burns away his sins and Fate is screwing with his... well, fate? Easy-lie, cheat, steal and dictate my questionably accurate autobiography slash romance novel to my unwilling and outstandingly rude Vampyre niece. Welcome to my Hell. A mysterious darkness is gunning for me and this time it might prevail, but I have little time to worry about that. Instead of seeking it out, I shall simply go about business as usual. If it's fated, it will find me. My list is long. Traveling to Earth to promote my bestselling romance novel at an alarming book convention where I must protect my privates from the rabid lady readers is enough to frighten even the Devil. Not to mention, I have to avoid my insane mother like the plague and catch the smart-mouthed, gorgeous soul seller on Earth-who may or may not be someone I'd like to keep. So today is a day like any other. Punishments must be doled out and chaos must be encouraged. A vacation would be lovely, but there is no rest for the weary... or the evil. Luckily I know how to have an outstanding time doing outrageously bad things. Thank Hades, I'm a handsome bastard. There is no fated happily ever after for the Prince of Darkness, no matter what ridiculous ending my niece slaps onto my autobiography. Or is there? Fate is a bitch, but she usually gets it right.
Le Compatibilità Zodiacali del Capricorno, analizza le dinamiche di compatibilità del Capricorno con tutti gli altri Segni ed evidenzia le reciproche attitudini favorevoli di relazione e ciò su cui è bene prestare attenzione, poiché si riferisce direttamente alle qualità specifiche dei vari Segni che possono anche essere antitetiche. Quando parliamo di Capricorno, ci riferiamo a tutte le persone nate sotto questo Segno, o col Sole di nascita in questo Segno, uomini e donne, senza discriminazioni e le compatibilità descritte, funzionali primariamente alle relazioni d'amore, e su queste focalizzate, indistintamente dal sesso, lo sono altresì per quelle di amicizia e collaborazione, perché anche questi legami sono sempre e solo tenuti assieme da quell'amore che, di volta in volta, si manifesta in base alla situazione attuale e dura quanto dura.Esplorare con curiosità ed interesse tutte le innate dinamiche intrinseche dei vari Segni ci aiuta a comprendere di più noi stessi e noi stesse, nella profondità del nostro essere, e gli altri in generale e ad aprirci a possibilità di accettazione e coscienza mai presupposte prima. Ogni nascita è diversa, unica ed irripetibile e anche se non direttamente o totalmente compatibile con un'altra, c'è sempre un terreno comune di consapevolezza che rende non solo possibile ma anche piacevole e costruttivo l'incontro di due anime adulte, che nel loro eterno viaggio attraverso l'infinito trascorrono del tempo assieme, in armonica comprensione e condivisione, fino al bivio di vita successivo, dove ognuna procederà verso nuovi orizzonti individuali costellati di nuovi o rinnovati incontri, esperienze e acquisizioni. Le Compatibilità Zodiacali del Capricorno, ti dà una chiave di lettura importante, la conoscenza dell'altro Segno, che può fare la differenza tra una relazione d'amore che a poco a poco va in dissolvenza e una che continua per sempre. La scelta responsabile, per quanto riguarda la nostra parte nelle dinamiche di coppia, è come al solito solo nostra e dipende il più delle volte da quanto siamo in grado di mettere il nostro ego da parte ed entrare nel gioco più grande.

The railway signal-man of the title tells the narrator of a ghost that has been haunting him. Each spectral appearance precedes a tragic event on the railway on which the signalman works. The signalman's work is at a signal-box in a deep cutting near a tunnel entrance on a lonely stretch of the railway line, and he controls the movements of passing trains. When there is danger, his fellow signalmen alert him by telegraph and alarms. Three times, he receives phantom warnings of danger when his bell rings in a fashion that only he can hear. Each warning is followed by the appearance of the spectre, and then by a terrible accident.
I know I'm already mated...I wanna get married. What do you get when you combine a three headed monster named Charles, a rotund, gay, dancing Demon named Doug, a culinary disaster baked by Mother Nature, a celibate premarital councilor named Jeff, an offer from Satan that's impossible to refuse and Steve Perry? You get the Royal Wedding from Hell-or to be more accurate-possibly in Hell. All I want to do is marry the Vampyre of my dreams with my closest friends and family in attendance. Yep, I know nuptials in the undead world are unheard of, but I'm still hanging onto my humanity if only by a thread. Being mated is great, but getting married is important to me. Tacky invitations and cake that causes food poisoning aside, I also need to deal with the stream of Demons entering my world from mysteriously opened portals. Not to mention Angel Jeff is going to fail us on the premarital test if we participate in any nookie before the wedding. I'm trying really hard not to go bridezilla on everyone. With five days to plan the wedding, I have figure out who's opening the portals and deal with our hostile allies who think our wedding is a farce. It's been a very difficult week-especially the no nookie part. All I know is this, I will say I do on Saturday even if it I have to go to Hell and back to accomplish it.
The Hippie Revival Revival is a collection of writings about the spiritual resurgence of the hippie counterculture. Like the original hippies of the 1960's and 70's, Forrest Rivers shares with us his vision for humanity that rests on the core values of peace, unity, and love. Additional themes that are also addressed in these writings include: the sacredness of nature, the use of entheogenic plants for personal insight, the intersection of social revolution and spirituality, and a questioning of the meaning behind "progress". These writings are also something of an homage to those early hippies who dared to dream of a better and more peaceful world. Sit back, enjoy, and allow this book to uplift your soul!

Watch for a video tribute to Lloyd on the @discoversaipan Youtube channel at https: //www.youtube.com/@discoversaipan Born in California on December 28th, 1923, Lloyd Glick was a naive 18-year-old boy watching a movie at a theater in downtown Berkeley on Dec 7 1941, when the movie was interrupted to announce Japan's bombing of Pearl Harbor. A few days after the attack, Lloyd, already an accomplished trumpet player as 2nd Trumpet Chair for the University of California Symphony, took his desire to serve his country, his passion for music, and his dream of attending the prestigious US Naval School of Music, and showed up at the Navy recruiting office in San Francisco. Four months later, with his parents' signed permission, he joined the United States Navy as a way of entering their prestigious Naval School program. That decision would ultimately land him the position of Musician Second Class aboard the USS North Carolina as a member of the ship's band while it participated in the bombings of Saipan, Guam, Palau, Pohnpei, and battles throughout World War II's pivotal Pacific Campaign. From Bugle Boy to Battleship is Lloyd's fascinating account of his two years at sea, as well as his hero's welcome return to visit the islands of Saipan and Guam 70 years later. From Bugle Boy to Battleship includes the actual emails that also tell the story of the unique relationship between Lloyd and his "tour guide" --an author living on Saipan--who became inspired by their correspondence to help Lloyd document his story for this and future generations.

Long ago in the Jurassic age, 150 million years before the present day, a strange and wonderful assortment of dinosaurs lived on Earth. This was tens of millions of years before the time of dinosaur "superstars" like triceratops and tyrannosaurus, but there were plenty of famous, interesting animals alive at that time, too. Stegosaurus was one of these - a bus sized creature with two rows of plates sticking up along its back like the frill on the spine of a legendary dragon. Besides the rows of plates on its back, stegosaurus had big spikes on its tail that look a lot like the barbs on a medieval knight's mace. In this book, you'll learn all about what made this massive giant great--from what they looked like and ate to where they lived and what they did all day.KidCaps is an imprint of BookCaps; each month we are adding more history books (just for kids!) to our library.

This book will help you understand the redemptive story of the Old Testament through six major periods: Creation, Abraham, Sinai, Kings, Exile and Temple, with the first letter of each heading making up the word CASKET. This acronym will enable you to memorize the storyline of the Old Testament and place key events, people and biblical books in their correct time period. The author takes you through each period step by step, explaining the major covenants and highlighting the most important people, events, and biblical themes. As you become familiar with storyline of the Old Testament you will learn that God's redemptive plan is climactically fulfilled in the New Testament with the coming Messiah. The acronym for the entire Bible is CASKET EMPTY, therefore, which points to the empty tomb of Jesus as the beginning of God's new creation, the assurance that death has been defeated, and the guarantee of our resurrection yet to come. Through the acronym CASKET EMPTY you will have a framework for remembering the entire sweep of the Bible with the person and work of Christ at the center.
NEW! Catch the video based on the book here: https: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbBX_Bzn6_s&t=20sAbout the book...Mike Marcon has written of a time in the 1960's when sport parachuting, or "skydiving," as it is called today, was just starting to come into its own as a sport. In the U.S., Europe and across the world, even in the Soviet Union, small groups of jumpers would gather at local airports and grass airstrips on the week-ends. The equipment they used was usually military surplus -- their aircraft, a mixed bag of smaller airplanes.Mike's early days as a jumper took place mainly in the south, starting first in Mississippi and later, in Louisiana. Mike reveled in the sport as a young guy with nothing on his mind but jumping, girls and partying. He was the master of practical jokes. The characters he recounts in "Red Beans & Ripcords" are varied and slightly off-balance.There was Major Goody who tried to kill a cat with homemade nitroglycerine, and Swartz who jumped with his dog. There were the first-jump students he trained and the jumpers who became his extended family. There were the ocelots kept as pets that terrorized the various visitors that visited his parachute center. There were outrageous drinking games and eating unbelievable amounts of a southern staple, red beans and rice. You'll roar with laughter at the story of "Eddy and the Body." And, through it all, there was Leon, the Cajun, his mentor and friend. You'll most likely hear the sound of Zydeco music in the pages of this book.See what life was like for early sport parachuting pioneers.

Have you ever wondered about the essence of consciousness and life in the human experience? The scriptures unveil the profound truth that The Most High God breathed eternal essence into man, shaping him from the earth, and transforming him into a living soul. What does this mean? The Hebrew term "nep̄es" (neh'-fesh) used over 450 times in Scripture encompasses literal, accommodated, or figurative senses, speaking to the inner being-the seat of appetites, emotions, and passions. To comprehend consciousness, a facet of the soul, we must distinguish between body, soul, and spirit. At this very moment, you exist as a spirit being, possessing a soul, housed in a body. We must adopt the mindset of Christ to rise above the influences demanding conformity and consciously live above them. We have the responsibility to become aware of our divine nature and practice the principle of submission to God's will in every area of our lives.
