In this book we get to see what happens when an eager little seed finally gets the growth it's been asking for. The book is visually appealing towards a younger audience but contains a message we all can learn from.
Elijah Foster is a witty, wise-cracking street kid who uses street smarts and gadgets to outwit and take down Chico and his gang. Eli was fed up with their bad behavior. Not only was Chico bulling his best friend, but they were planning to rob Mr. Joe's pawn shop. Not on Eli's watch Eli calls himself the "Little Drifter" because he idolizes Max Cordell aka "The Drifter."
Shifting My Prophetic Life: Structuring & Developing Prophetic Ministry Purposefully
Rodney S. Walker Sr

Throughout Scripture we read about people hearing about Jesus and then responding to him for a personal encounter. In this book, Rodney explores those stories and finds personal application for each of our lives. Rodney also shares his own experiences of hearing it was Jesus, and then positioning himself for personal encounter with Christ. It is one thing to hear that Jesus is nearby or working, but our response to what we hear will determine how we are personally impacted. Many times we hear that Jesus is doing great things, and we simply try to sustain our own spiritual life on the testimony of others without pressing in and having our own encounter. This book is written to challenge each of us to not let hearing about Jesus be enough. What will I do when I hear? What will you do when you hear?
"Eyeopening... Fascinating... may presage a paradigm shift in medicine. "Kirkus Reviews"(starred review)"Teeming with information and big ideas...Outstanding. "Booklist"(starred review) The origin of asthma, autism, Alzheimer's, allergies, cancer, heart disease, obesity, and even some kinds of depression is now clear. Award-winning researcher on the microbiome, professor Rodney Dietert presents a new paradigm in human biology that has emerged in the midst of the ongoing global epidemic of noncommunicable diseases. "The Human Superorganism"makes a sweeping, paradigm-shifting argument. It demolishes two fundamental beliefs that have blinkered all medical thinking until very recently: 1) Humans are better off as pure organisms free of foreign microbes; and 2) the human genome is the key to future medical advances. The microorganisms that we have sought to eliminate have been there for centuries supporting our ancestors. They comprise as much as 90 percent of the cells in and on our bodies a staggering percentage More than a thousand species of them live inside us, on our skin, and on our very eyelashes. Yet we have now significantly reduced their power and in doing so have sparked an epidemic of noncommunicable diseases which now account for 63 percent of all human deaths. Ultimately, this book is not just about microbes; it is about a different way to view humans. The story that Dietert tells of where the new biology comes from, how it works, and the ways in which it affects your life is fascinating, authoritative, and revolutionary. Dietert identifies foods that best serve you, the superorganism; not new fad foods but ancient foods that have made sense for millennia. He explains protective measures against unsafe chemicals and drugs. He offers an empowering self-care guide and the blueprint for a revolution in public health. We are not what we have been taught. Each of us is a superorganism. The best path to a healthy life is through recognizing that profound truth."

This is a beautiful and enlightening year-long diary from one of the clearest and most direct spiritual teachers of our day. These intimate entries include everything from the enjoyment of good food and advice to seekers from around the globe to bad days at work and to why meditation and spiritual practices won't help you "in the least" with self-realization. Stevens also ruminates engagingly about the weather (particularly the sweltering, Carolina summers), the possible ending of his relationship with his girlfriend, and the unchanging state of deep peace and spaciousness that he came to recognize four years ago, and which lead him to write his first acclaimed work, A VASTNESS ALL AROUND: AWAKENING TO YOUR NATURAL STATE.
Hilbert Space Methods in Signal Processing

This lively and accessible book describes the theory and applications of Hilbert spaces and also presents the history of the subject to reveal the ideas behind theorems and the human struggle that led to them. The authors begin by establishing the concept of 'countably infinite', which is central to the proper understanding of separable Hilbert spaces. Fundamental ideas such as convergence, completeness and dense sets are first demonstrated through simple familiar examples and then formalised. Having addressed fundamental topics in Hilbert spaces, the authors then go on to cover the theory of bounded, compact and integral operators at an advanced but accessible level. Finally, the theory is put into action, considering signal processing on the unit sphere, as well as reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. The text is interspersed with historical comments about central figures in the development of the theory, which helps bring the subject to life.
Black–Latino Relations in U.S. National Politics

Social science research has frequently found conflict between Latinos and African Americans in urban politics and governance, as well as in the groups' attitudes toward one another. Rodney E. Hero and Robert R. Preuhs analyze whether conflict between these two groups is also found in national politics. Based on extensive evidence on the activities of minority advocacy groups in national politics and the behavior of minority members of Congress, the authors find the relationship between the groups is characterized mainly by non-conflict and a considerable degree of independence. The question of why there appears to be little minority intergroup conflict at the national level of government is also addressed. This is the first systematic study of Black–Latino intergroup relations at the national level of United States politics.
Introducing Language and Society

This accessible and entertaining textbook introduces students to both traditional and more contemporary approaches to sociolinguistics in a real-world context, addressing current social problems that students are likely to care about, such as racism, inequality, political conflict, belonging, and issues around gender and sexuality. Each chapter includes exercises, case studies and ideas for small-scale research projects, encouraging students to think critically about the different theories and approaches to language and society, and to interrogate their own beliefs about language and communication. The book gives students a grounding in the traditional concepts and techniques upon which sociolinguistics is built, while also introducing new developments from the last decade, such as translanguaging, multimodality, superdiversity, linguistic landscapes and language and digital media. Students will also have online access to more detailed examples, links to video and audio files, and more challenging exercises to strengthen their skills and confidence as sociolinguists.

Winner of the IENE Project Award 2016.This authoritative volume brings together some of the world’s leading researchers, academics, practitioners and transportation agency personnel to present the current status of the ecological sustainability of the linear infrastructure – primarily road, rail and utility easements – that dissect and fragment landscapes globally. It outlines the potential impacts, demonstrates how this infrastructure is being improved, and how broad ecological principles are applied to mitigate the impact of road networks on wildlife. Research and monitoring is an important aspect of road ecology, encompassing all phases of a transportation project. This book covers research and monitoring to span the entire project continuum – starting with planning and design, through construction and into maintenance and management. It focuses on impacts and solutions for species groups and specific regions, with particular emphasis on the unique challenges facing Asia, South America and Africa. Other key features: Contributions from authors originating from over 25 countries, including from all continentsEach chapter summarizes important lessons, and includes lists of further reading and thoroughly up to date referencesHighlights principles that address key points relevant to all phases in all road projectsExplains best-practices based on a number of successful international case studiesChapters are "stand-alone", but they also build upon and complement each other; extensive cross-referencing directs the reader to relevant material elsewhere in the book Handbook of Road Ecology offers a comprehensive summary of approximately 30 years of global efforts to quantify the impacts of roads and traffic and implement effective mitigation. As such, it is essential reading for those involved in the planning, design, assessment and construction of new roads; the management and maintenance of existing roads; and the modifying or retrofitting of existing roads and problem locations. This handbook is an accessible resource for both developed and developing countries, including government transportation agencies, Government environmental/conservation agencies, NGOs, and road funding and donor organisations.
