A Boy in the South

A Boy in the South

Arthur J Solomon

Xlibris Us
2021
pokkari
Sometimes, life is like a revolving door. As a teenager, when I left Georgia to pursue a better life and to see the world, I told myself I would never live here again. 70 years later, after all my travels and being in so many places, I accomplished my dream; with many prayers. I was determined not to return, but somehow, I found myself back in Georgia, where I started. Life has changed a great deal since my younger days. Many loved ones, the homes where I lived, and the places I use to go are gone. One thing that remains is my memory of them and the times we shared. I still enjoy a drive to the country, visiting the old places, and on occasion, I take my children and grandchildren with me on those rides and tell them stories about the little boy who grew up in the south.

Tales of Urath: Of Dragons and Drakes Volume 1

Tales of Urath: Of Dragons and Drakes Volume 1

Arthur J. Dorety III

Bookbaby
2022
nidottu
"Of Dragons and Drakes" tells the tale of the creation of dragons, betrayal, and prophecy. The line between good and evil is often wide and blurred, and personal agendas sometimes overshadow what should be done for the common good. Two divine entities, the Grand Father and Grand Mother, battle with one another and other dark entities for complete control and power amidst cosmic war. All the gears turning in so many machinations by so many different groups and individuals, sometimes one odd gear is missed that can change the outcome of so many well-oiled plans. What part does a certain self-proclaimed Dragon Lord play in all this?

Religion and Contemporary Management

Religion and Contemporary Management

Arthur J. Wolak

Anthem Press
2016
sidottu
Although few might think of Moses as a ‘leader’ in the contemporary business and political sense, Moses is not only among the most significant leaders in Western civilization but is also arguably the quintessential example of a powerful leader from whom much can be learned by anyone entering and occupying leadership positions. Various types of leadership approaches are considered that have been advocated by scholars over the past century. Moses’ example as described in the Bible is analyzed to assert why Moses’ approach makes for an appropriate and compelling form of leadership today. While present leadership and management vocabulary might differ from the Hebrew Bible, many of the notions advocated by modern leadership theorists appear to parallel major behaviors, traits, functions, experiences and actions ascribed to Moses, especially in the first five books of the Hebrew Bible. Anyone can view Moses through the lens of a particular religion, whether shared or not, and still learn considerably from the experience. One will find Moses depicted as heroic, charismatic, and certainly empathic. Yet, Moses also shows transactional, transformational and visionary leadership qualities. Hence, ‘Religion and Contemporary Management’ discerns why Moses represents such an important model of effective leadership for contemporary times.

Some Thoughts about the Evolution of Human Behavior: A Literature Survey

Some Thoughts about the Evolution of Human Behavior: A Literature Survey

Arthur J. Boucot

Archaeopress
2021
nidottu
On his death, Arthur Boucot (1924–2017) left an unfinished manuscript in which he surveyed the skeletal, behavioural, and cultural changes that have characterized Homo from its first recognition in the Late Pliocene to the present. The subjects he treated were as varied as the preparation of food for infants, the length of intestines, hafting, plastering, use of flint and metals, the domestication of grains and animals, and the prevalence of parasitic diseases. His text repeatedly notes the difficulties imposed by the enormous gaps in both fossil and archaeological records. Boucot deduced a continuity in basic human behaviours from the Oldowan and Acheulian into modern forms, and made a point of including Neandertals and Denisovans. But he also pointed out that morphological changes in successive species of Homo do not coincide in time with major changes in lithic technologies. Boucot concluded that a quantum evolutionary gap separates hominins from the great apes: that members of our line were sapient and had been using language long before they became sapiens. In his text he also indicates his concern for changes to the environment wrought by human activities. The results of this late-life effort, edited after his death, provide a heavily referenced sourcebook for future workers in diverse fields.

Elements of Chance

Elements of Chance

"Science is like a fine Swiss cheese," he says. From a quirky, down-to-earth, hard-work beginning to a serene, humble end, in Elements of Chance scientist-poet Art Stewart explores the principle of cause and effect, a cornerstone of science. He offers facts--but not just the facts. Come along In these poems you are invited to appreciate both the facts and the connections and spaces between the facts."A moving synthesis of poetry, biology, science, and life. The deep beauty and excitement of the natural living world, so fresh in the original writings of Loren Eiseley and Lewis Thomas, is born again in these remarkable poems. Read them and let them carry you into the beauty and mystery that is nature." - Allan Combs, Professor and Director, California Institute for Consciousness Studies, The California Institute of Integral Studies, author of Thomas Berry Dreamer of the Earth, The Radiance of Being, and more"A beautiful new way to illustrate the oneness of art and science. Arthur Stewart's poetry is a pleasure walk through the garden that empowers us--balance, synchronicity, organization, animals, paintings, technology, books, and the very special, the Monet. This book is strongly recommended to all students of science." - Adrian Bejan, J.A. Jones Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Duke University, author of The Physics of Life: The Evolution of Everything"Things seem not to end in these poems. We get a picture of a mind considering its own mortality, yes--including a tooth filling or the evasive moves of a lizard--but it's a lyrical reflection and in "Bunny Hour" he catalogues a kind of contentment Coleridge expresses in "Frost at Midnight." The intimacy here, the changing focus of inward and outward eye, reveal a poet in full control of his poetic materials and confident in a worldview he invites us to enjoy with him." - Robert Chianese, Professor, columnist for American Scientist and author of Illuminations: Poems Inspired by Science"Ever the limnologist, Stewart's world is the world of water. His poems grounded. His hands wet. Whether he is driving, slow rowing, data gathering or gazing, water images pervade--ripples, eddies, gyres, water lilies, the "dark air-water interface" and the Sargasso Sea. As Stewart faces uncertainty, causality and chance, he never loses his humanity or his sense of humor." - Nancy Gorrell, author of Writing Poetry through the Eyes of Science: A Teacher's Guide to Scientific Literacy and Poetic Response

The Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit 978-1-947070-23-3 Whether you are just about to make your Confirmation or you made it over 50 years ago, there is more to know and cherish about the awesome gifts of the Holy Spirit. Reading and reflecting on Bishop Serratelli's words will enable you to be more open to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. Through history, art, Scripture, and Catholic documents, you will appreciate and grasp more fully how the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit can help you to live a truly authentic Christian life filled with peace and joy. The seven gifts of the Holy Spirit--wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord--are essential treasures in Catholic theology, bestowed at Baptism and strengthened in Confirmation. Rooted in Isaiah 11:2-3, they equip believers to live virtuously, discern God's will, and grow in holiness, making them vital for spiritual maturity and navigating life's challenges. Among the features of this book are: Sturdy flexible cover Size 3-3/8" x 5-3/4" Beautiful, full color illustrations throughout High-quality paper Scripture reflections Conveniently sized to accommodate nightstand or purse Nihil Obstat Imprimatur Visit our website for more spiritual resources and Bibles www.catholicbookpublishing.com Learning about the seven gifts and going deeper enhances our understanding and power of the Holy Spirit. Wisdom, the highest gift, enables one to see reality through God's perspective, prioritizing eternal truths over fleeting desires. It fosters a deep love for divine things, guiding decisions with clarity and peace. Understanding complements this by illuminating the mysteries of faith, such as the Trinity or Eucharist, deepening comprehension and trust in God's revelation. Counsel, or right judgment, empowers individuals to choose wisely amid moral dilemmas. It acts as an inner compass, aligning actions with God's law, especially in complex situations. Fortitude, the gift of courage, strengthens the soul to persevere through trials--whether persecution, temptation, or personal loss--ensuring steadfastness in faith. Knowledge directs one to use creation rightly, recognizing its purpose in God's plan. It prevents misuse of worldly goods and fosters gratitude, balancing material and spiritual life. Piety, a gift of reverence, nurtures a filial relationship with God and respect for others as His children. It inspires heartfelt prayer and acts of charity, binding communities in love. Fear of the Lord, far from dread, is a holy awe of God's majesty and a humble recognition of human dependence on Him. It curbs pride and sin, anchoring the soul in reverence and obedience. Together, these gifts transform believers into active participants in God's mission. They cultivate a life of grace, enabling one to bear the fruits of the Spirit--love, joy, peace--and witness to Christ. For individuals and the Church, the seven gifts are indispensable, shaping a faith that is both resilient and radiant.

Scriptural Novena to Saint Joseph

Scriptural Novena to Saint Joseph 978-1-953152-30-5 Written with deep devotion and respect for Jesus' earthly father, these nine biblical reflections with accompanying prayers will help you to grow in your knowledge and love of St. Joseph. You, your family, and the Church across the world will be blessed by praying to the holy, humble, just, and trustworthy St. Joseph. He has the power to assist and protect us as he did most perfectly for Mary and their Son. This novena can be said in honor of your husband, father, son or anyone who will be guided and graced by St. Joseph. A scriptural novena to St. Joseph--a nine-day prayer rooted in biblical reflections--offers profound spiritual benefits, drawing the faithful closer to God through the intercession of Jesus' earthly father. St. Joseph, revered as the just man (Matthew 1:19), protector of the Holy Family, and model of humility, becomes a powerful guide in this devotion, enriching the soul with grace, virtue, and trust in divine providence. One key benefit is deepened faith through scripture. Each day of the novena typically pairs a passage--such as Joseph's obedience in taking Mary as his wife (Matthew 1:24) or his flight to Egypt (Matthew 2:13-15)--with prayerful meditation. This immersion in God's word illuminates Joseph's silent strength and unwavering trust, encouraging believers to rely on God amid life's uncertainties. It transforms prayer into a dialogue with scripture, fostering a living faith. Among the features of this book are: Sturdy flexible cover Size 3-3/8" x 5-3/4" Beautiful, full color illustrations throughout High-quality paper Scripture reflections Conveniently sized to accommodate nightstand or purse Nihil Obstat Imprimatur Visit our website for more spiritual resources and Bibles www.catholicbookpublishing.com The novena also cultivates virtues exemplified by St. Joseph. His humility, patience, and diligence inspire petitioners to grow in these qualities. For instance, reflecting on his role as a carpenter and provider invites perseverance in daily duties, while his protective care of Mary and Jesus encourages selflessness. This intentional focus helps align one's life with Christian ideals, bearing fruit in personal holiness. Another spiritual benefit is strengthening trust in intercession. St. Joseph's closeness to Jesus and Mary positions him as a potent advocate. As petitioners bring intentions, whether for family, work, or spiritual needs--to him over nine days, they learn to surrender control, trusting his paternal care. This builds confidence in God's timing and will, often leading to peace even before answers manifest. Finally, the novena fosters intimacy with the Holy Family. By contemplating Joseph's role, one draws nearer to Jesus and Mary, reinforcing the unity of this divine household as a model for Christian life. This connection deepens devotion and a sense of belonging to God's family. In essence, a scriptural novena to St. Joseph nourishes the spirit through scripture, virtue, trust, and familial closeness, making it a transformative journey toward God's heart.
