The first book, Timothy Turtle, was born when I had my surgery. I was literally "a turtle on my back." I would lie in my hospital bed and notice something that needed to be done, but because I was a "turtle on my back", I could not even water my flowers. Like Timothy, I eventually recovered, but not completely. Timothy, with the help of his friend, Tobias, learned that he could still do some things, like swimming in the lake, but he could not do everything. Timothy had to find joy by doing what he could and by being with his friends. The book also includes a kind deed by a child, who gets Timothy off his back and on the road to recovery. The young boy in the wheelchair also learns that he can enjoy the races even if he can't run.

In Beyond the Velvet Curtain, Karen Kovacik illustrates Czeslaw Miloxzs dictum that the purpose of poetry is to remind us how difficult it is to remain just one person. Peopled with such diverse characters as Richard Nixon, Nikita Khruschev, Kafkas father, Dorothea Lange, William Carlos Williams, Lawrence Welk, Robespierre, and a feisty Catholic saint, this original collection of poems takes us on an amusement-park ride through world history and art. Kovaciks poetry places us in the strange drama of cataclysmic events and ordinary life.</p>

Based in real small towns and the Little Sahara Sand Dunes of Woods County, Oklahoma, Hopeton Horror combines murder, blood, and gore with kick-your-feet giggling tension in this Midwestern Thriller, featuring no-spice romance.

An escaped convict roaming the countryside isn't the only monster among rural residents.

Lizzy returns to Hopeton to bury her estranged mother and figure out what to do with her childhood home. Not wanting to make any drastic decisions, she moves back in and takes a position as art instructor on Alva's college campus while she makes up her mind. Here she meets Casey. After a memorable first impression, she can't shake the thought of him. He pops up everywhere she turns, eventually crossing her mind without approval as she searches for his face in the crowd. At her weakest moment, struggling under the unexpected grief, Lizzy opens up to Casey and decides to take a chance on him.
Casey hates life. A failed suicide attempt leaves him hungry for purpose that he can't quite seem to find until he makes his first kill. Turns out, it gets much easier after that. Enlisting the help of a partner, Geoffrey, they use the escape of a convict as cover for their heinous deeds.
Geoffrey has nothing to lose with his family gone. All that's left is his cattle hauler, booze, and a temper.

When Lizzy becomes as important to him as killing, what is Casey to do? Consequences meant for him rear their head with Lizzy square in the crosshairs. She doesn't expect to be gambling with her life.

Murder, fire, and the seemingly endless sands of Little Sahara State Park; there is much more to Hopeton than meets the eye.

L'ere du Nouvel Empire de l'histoire egyptienne emerge des tenebres de la Deuxieme Periode Intermediaire, lorsque la dynastie thebaine chasse les Hyksos d'Egypte, puis conquiert Canaan et la Nubie. La chute de la dynastie des Hyksos semble etre due en grande partie a l'eruption minoenne en Grece, qui a obscurci le ciel de l'Egypte et recouvert le nord de l'Egypte d'une couche de cendres pouvant atteindre deux metres. La stele de la Tempete de Karnak decrit les effets de la tempete jusqu'au sud de l'Egypte a l'epoque d'Ahmosis Ier, le pharaon qui a finalement chasse les Hyksos d'Egypte.

L'Autobiographie d'Ahmes fils d'Abana couvre de nombreuses batailles qui ont forge le Nouvel Empire egyptien, notamment la bataille d'Avaris, et la bataille ulterieure de Sharouhen quelques annees plus tard, qui a abouti a la prise de controle de l'Egypte sur l'ensemble de l'ancien domaine des Hyksos. Ahmes fils d'Abana est souvent decrit comme un amiral egyptien, cependant, sa carriere dans la marine egyptienne a dure des decennies au service d'une serie de pharaons, dont Ahmosis Ier, Amenhotep Ier et Thoutmosis Ier, couvrant plus de 50 ans, de 1570 avant aux annees 1520 avant. Comme il se decrit lui-meme comme un jeune homme lors de la bataille d'Avaris, ou il a servi en remplacement de son pere dans la flotte, il est probable qu'il n'ait pris sa retraite qu'a l'age de plus de 60 ans. Il a repertorie de nombreuses campagnes tout au long de sa vie, principalement dans le nord du Soudan le long du Nil et du Nil Jaune, avant que le pharaon ne tourne son attention vers le nord et ne les envoie occuper la Syrie.

Kars, sometimes translated as Keres, was the herald of one of the queen-mothers named Ahhotep at the beginning of the New Kingdom era. There were two queen-mothers named Ahhotep at the beginning of the New Kingdom era: Ahhotep, the wife of King Amenhotep I, and Ahhotep, the mother of King Ahmose. This stele was erected during regal year 10 of King Amenhotep I, and therefore it is accepted that this Ahhotep was his wife. King Amenhotep I was the king of Egypt between approximately 1557 and 1537 BCE. This date is based on the radiocarbon dating of the mummy of the previous king, Ahmose I, meaning the stele would have been erected circa 1547 BCE.

Kars was a senior member of the Egyptian nobility during the reign of King Amenhotep I; however, his stele was much shorter than the stele of his contemporaries Ahmose pen-Nekhbet and Ahmose pen-Ebana. Unlike his major contemporaries, he would have been a homosexual, and therefore, probably never had any children to maintain his tomb and stele. The stele was erected by the queen-mother after Kars died, which supports the idea that he did not have children. The stele was maintained by the royal court until the reign of Akhenaten, when it was defaced. King Ahkenaten tried to suppress the ancient gods of Egypt in favor of his preferred god: Aten. Several names were destroyed within the text of the stele, mostly the names of gods. Based on the context, the gods' names can be reconstructed as Amen, Aani, and Ma'at.

Kars' stele was accompanied by a statue of Kars, which Queen-mother Ahhotep had commissioned and erected at his tomb in Abydos. Both the stele and the statue have survived; however, the stele was damaged during the reign of Akhenaten, when the names of the old gods were systematically destroyed in ancient steles. Unfortunately, the stele did not go into great detail about Kars' life, not even mentioning his last name. It spoke more about Ahhotep, who had commissioned it. Nevertheless, it does give a glimpse into the relationships within the royal court of Amenhotep I circa 1547 BCE.

Kars, parfois traduit par Keres, etait le heraut d'une des reines-meres nommees Iahhotep au debut de l'ere du Nouvel Empire. Il y avait deux reines-meres nommees Iahhotep au debut de l'ere du Nouvel Empire : Iahhotep, l'epouse du roi Amenhotep Ier, et Iahhotep, la mere du roi Ahmes. Cette stele a ete erigee au cours de la dixieme annee royale du roi Amenhotep Ier, et il est donc admis que cette Iahhotep etait son epouse. Le roi Amenhotep Ier a ete roi d'Egypte entre environ 1557 et 1537 avant notre ere. Cette date est basee sur la datation au radiocarbone de la momie du roi precedent, Ahmes Ier, ce qui signifie que la stele aurait ete erigee vers 1547 avant notre ere.

Kars etait un membre important de la noblesse egyptienne sous le regne du roi Amenhotep Ier ; cependant, sa stele est beaucoup plus courte que celles de ses contemporains Ahmes fils d'Nekhbet et Ahmes fils d'Abana. Contrairement a ses principaux contemporains, il aurait ete homosexuel et n'aurait donc probablement pas eu d'enfants pour entretenir sa tombe et sa stele. La stele a ete erigee par la reine-mere apres la mort de Kars, ce qui confirme l'idee qu'il n'a pas eu d'enfants. La stele a ete entretenue par la cour royale jusqu'au regne d'Akhenaton, ou elle a ete degradee. Le roi Akhenaton tenta de supprimer les anciens dieux de l'Egypte au profit de son dieu prefere, Aton : Aton. Plusieurs noms ont ete detruits dans le texte de la stele, principalement des noms de dieux. D'apres le contexte, les noms des dieux peuvent etre reconstitues comme etant Amon, Aani et Maat.

Amon etait le dieu supreme du pantheon egyptien pendant la majeure partie de l'ere du Nouvel Empire. Son temple se trouvait a Karnak, a la peripherie de la capitale Thebes. Sous la precedente dynastie des hyksos, les principaux dieux etaient les dieux amorites et cananeens. Amon etait le dieu du soleil et le dieu pere de la trinite thebaine. Son epouse etait Mout, la mere et deesse de la Terre, et leur fils Khonsou, le dieu de la lune. Le nom de son temple a egalement ete detruit sur la stele pendant le regne d'Akhenaton. Il est restitue ici sous le nom de Karnak , car c'est le temple le plus vraisemblablement mentionne a l'origine dans la stele.

Seasons of the Soul Rediscovered Through Mystical Experience and Depth Psychology

# data[].attributes.description
A unique exploration of the human psyche and the journey toward psychospiritual unity, Remembering Self covers the mind-body-spirit realm as well as personal development, psychology, spirituality, midlife, eldering, and death, uniquely weaving together the mystery of mystical spirituality, the depth of Jungian Psychoanalysis, and the complexity of attachment theory.

Broken into sections that follow the "four seasons of life" through which the soul evolves, this book details the tasks, responsibilities, and development necessary to integrate and move through each stage. Each season represents both a universal, transcendent perspective and an immanent personal reflection through the voice of Shemah, a character recounting his life as he nears death under the guidance of Cornelius, a wise figure representing the essence of Self. Although Shemah is a fictional character, his story is an amalgam of Lakritz's clinical patients over decades of practice.

In whatever season of re-membering readers find themselves, this book will help light their way toward a fuller awareness and expression of the Self.

Between The Gang And The Girl by Jamaar Brooks is a gripping

romantic thriller that blends danger, loyalty, and forbidden chemistry into a

high-tension story about a girl caught between the world she knows and the

one she never meant to enter.

Lani Rivers has always lived in the long shadow of her older brother, Mason

a fiercely protective troublemaker with a restless streak and a motorcycle gang at his back.

When their parents leave for the weekend,

Lani expects peace, quiet, and maybe a chance to breathe. Instead, the

yard fills with roaring engines as Mason brings home his entire crew, filling

the house with leather, attitude, and thick tension.

Among them stands Kai, the quiet one. The one with bruised knuckles and

eyes that hide everything he refuses to say. He watches, listens, lingers in

the corner like he's part of the world but never fully inside it. Mason warns

Lani to stay away from him especially him. He's trouble, danger, a storm

wrapped in silence.

But storms have a way of pulling everything into their path.
