CLASH OF TITANS: The USA-China AI Warfare and the Faith of Human Civilization by AIMQWEST Corporation (1 Review)    Price verified 3 minutes ago

In the dawning years of the 21st century, the geopolitical landscape is being reshaped by two colossal forces: the United States of America and the People's Republic of China. The ongoing tensions between these two superpowers, driven by trade disputes and territorial conflicts, particularly over Taiwan, have placed the world on a precarious edge. "Clash of Titans: The USA-China AI War and the Fate of Human Civilization" delves into the intricate web of political maneuvers, economic strategies, and military posturing that define this high-stakes rivalry, with a particular focus on the unprecedented AI arms race currently in full swing. As of May 2024, the conflict between the USA and China has intensified, spurred by a myriad of factors including trade imbalances, technological espionage, and the contentious issue of Taiwan's sovereignty. This book explores the roots of these tensions, tracing them back to the end of the Cold War and the subsequent rise of China as a global economic powerhouse. Through detailed analysis, the book examines how China's Belt and Road Initiative, its assertive military expansions in the South China Sea, and its strategic alliances with Russia and other BRICS nations have challenged the US-led world order. Central to this confrontation is the AI war -- a silent yet fiercely competitive struggle for dominance in artificial intelligence technologies. Both nations have poured vast resources into developing AI capabilities, with applications ranging from economic efficiencies to advanced military systems. The book scrutinizes the implications of this AI arms race, highlighting how AI-driven innovations are not only transforming economies but also revolutionizing warfare. The AI war introduces a new dimension to this rivalry, where autonomous weapons and AI-driven decision-making systems could lead to a new form of warfare. This book considers several potential scenarios for the evolution of the USA-China conflict over the next five ...

Contemplations: A Different Path To The Sacred by Aenga Besceawung (1 Review)    Price verified 33 minutes ago

Contemplations is a radical departure from mainstream thought on matters of culture, religion, and philosophy for the simple reason that it offers to one who chooses to see as I have seen, an experiential, open, and earnest path to the Sacred in this time of spiritual deception, blind grasping for purchase on purpose, and chronic longing for a crumb of dignity and for a taste of meaning in life. Set your expectations from the beginning: Contemplations is not an instruction manual to health, wealth, and happiness. It does not moralize at you or wield the whip of shame to force you to conform. It will not give you the means to unlock mysterious or ethereal magic of ancients as all such things are lures for the simple, crutches for the foolish, and deceit for the gullible. Contemplations earnestly offers another path based upon experience and observation. It avails you of the choice to benefit from what you will build upon its teachings within your life rather than to be bound to only what is approved. It leads to a path of your own should you choose to make it so.

I want desperately to leave, but there's a catch -- all I have to do is figure out what lesson this crazy, sentient island has for me. Did I mention I'm gifted? Sceadu's academy is dangerous and bewildering, so of course I'm sent there. Vampires, witches, and fairies roam the halls. Some students are so effing bizarre, I can't even identify what they are. Somehow Sceadu keeps the dragon and bear shifters in line. And the werewolves... well let's just say they defy imagination. Sceadu's classes don't interest me in the least, the only lesson I want to learn is the secret that frees me from this d*m rock! After meeting a strange green-eyed boy in the woods, Thatcher Blue, I get distracted. He's not the dark-eyed boy, Bellocaro, who gives me guidance in my dreams, but he's certainly drool worthy.

Meeting Mary Magdalene: The High Priestess of Avalon by Mike Frase (1 Review)    Price verified 3 minutes ago

This story is a journey of transformation and growth, covering my biographical pilgrimage from France into Spain during the European Summer of 2015. As I walk the 'Arles Way' Camino path towards Santiago, everything I once held sacred and special is stripped away when I open myself up to a new stream of living and thinking. Everything I thought I previously knew is replaced with an inner knowing that I really 'know' nothing. The relinquishing of this ego 'knowingness', helps create a whole new space of awareness - an awareness that by tapping into our inner heart wisdom, fear and self-doubt don't exist anymore. Love, light and consciousness are all that is real. After a broken marriage, still grieving the loss of a close family member and feeling unfulfilled in my semi-depressive corporate career, a chance meeting with an inspiring writer helped place me on this road to transformation. Meeting with a shaman and the subsequent connection to a Divine Mother that it brings, persuades me to leave work and agree to walk from Arles to Santiago, approximately 1,650 km, between June and September 2015.

The Iranian (Flight America Series Book 2) by JaTon Brantley (1 Review)    Price verified 3 minutes ago

"The Iranian" dives deep into the heart of conflict, freedom, and the intricate dance of power between captive and captor. The protagonist, Rose, finds herself ensnared in the grips of a new captivity, just as freedom teased its presence on her horizon. Diverging from the paths of her past, she is now isolated from Luke, her companion in escape and hope, and thrust into an environment harsher and more confining than before -- a compound whose boundaries are patrolled by the very essence of her fears: the Taliban. Rose's initial resolve to escape her chains transforms as she navigates the complexities of her new surroundings. The compound offers not just a physical prison, but also a battleground for her emotions and convictions. Here, amidst the daily trials and the constant shadow of danger, the lines that separate friend from foe, protector from predator, begin to blur. The narrative unfolds within this tense atmosphere, examining themes of survival, adaptation, and the human spirit's indomitable quest for freedom. Central to the story is the enigmatic figure of Yasif, an Iranian with roots within Iran and Afghanistan whose presence in the compound adds layers of complexity to Rose's predicament. Yasif oscillates between the roles of captor and protector, challenging Rose's preconceptions and igniting a tumultuous internal struggle. His character embodies the novel's exploration of moral ambiguity, evoking questions about loyalty, identity, and the nature of liberation. The evolving relationship between Rose and Yasif serves as a conduit for the book's exploration of deeper themes.

Meet seventeen-year-old Birdie Buckley.

A Complete Overview of the Book of Revelation by James Thomas Lee Jr (2 Reviews)    Price verified 33 minutes ago

The book of Revelation is a very interesting book. With its various symbols, characters, and colorful language, it is also a very complicated book. But it is well worth studying to try to understand the future events of this world. In the pages that follow, the four main approaches that scholars have used for understanding the book of Revelation will be identified. They are the Preterist view, the Historical view, the Allegorical view, and the Futurist view. This text uses the Futurist view, which attempts to apply a literal interpretation whenever possible. This text will also identify seven Bible passages that support a literal eschatology and nine Bible passages that support a pre-Tribulation view of the Rapture. That means that the events being discussed should really happen rather than just make for a good story. Early in the text, the seven letters to the seven churches will be discussed. After that, things will get down to looking at the rest of the book. The seven seal judgments, the seven trumpet judgments, and the seven vial judgments will be discussed. The one hundred and forty-four thousand Jewish servants will be discussed. The two witnesses will be discussed. The rise of the Antichrist and the False Prophet will be discussed. The Satanic Trinity will be discussed. The mark of the beast will be discussed. An Executive Summary, which seems to be used in the middle of the book of Revelation, will be discussed. Then as the text makes its way to the final chapters, the fall of Babylon, the battle of Armageddon, and the battle of Gog will be discussed. Finally, the white throne judgment, the new heaven and earth, the casting of the Satanic Trinity into the lake of fire, and the new Jerusalem will be discussed. This text will end in Revelation chapter twenty-two with the saints of God in heaven. There is one note, however, to be made with respect to the organization of this text. Throughout its pages, charts have been provided to help put the events of the ...

In one step, John went from a beautiful woman's embrace to the middle of a monster battle in a dusty, Old West town.

In this new world, though, he finds his training doesn't count for much. Powerful and practically invulnerable handlers roam the prairie, fighting with tame monsters and magical cards, and to face them, he'll have to become a tamer himself -- and maybe a bit of a monster, as well. A handler of terrible power is stealing the pets of everyone he comes across in pursuit of a goal only he knows, and it's up to John to stop him before he shatters the balance in this world... and maybe the world itself.

He'll have to find powerful monsters to tame, master the rules of this world's magic, and discover secrets hidden for millennia to have a chance at victory. Despite all this, he faces a foe far beyond his skills and power. He'll need every bit of skill and cunning he has -- and more than a little luck -- or face his final death under the green sun...

"The Prospect" is the story of a college baseball pitcher about to turn pro, causes a traffic accident, injures himself, his girlfriend and an elderly couple, loses the major league baseball contract he'd just signed with the Minnesota Twins and worse, his self-respect. Abandoned by his injured and angry girlfriend, disowned by the father that sacrificed everything to give his talented son a chance to play major league baseball, the Prospect, who no longer has any prospects, runs away from his failures until he stumbles across a retired military officer/cattle rancher that not only seems to have all life's answers at his fingertips, he also knows how to coax a young man back into believing in himself. But is it too late for the Prospect? Can he put his life, and his dream, back on track? The Minnesota Twins, in the meantime, are having problems of their own; the team hasn't been winning, player morale is nonexistent, attendance is low, revenue is down and a plot is being hatched to "contract" the failing ball club out of existence. But the Twins eccentric general manager gets wind of the scheme and enlists the aid of a washed-up sports reporter and a former Hall of Fame pitcher, now the team manager, in a counter-plot to save the Twins. Despite their efforts the odds seem stacked against the odd trio and the counter-plotters soon realize what they need to save the ball club is a player capable of inspiring both the team and the fans.

Things have been strange in the small town of Garrett, Ontario. Things have been way stranger underneath it. Garrett is the kind of town where people know each other. Everyone knows the police chief is a good guy. Everyone knows the lady at the grocery store is extra helpful. Everyone has the local principal on speed dial. And everyone knows Scotty Waymore is a little bit of a nut. He hears voices -- or the Voice, as he calls it. And he believes the Voice is telling him something important. Something so important he won't be medicated even if his wife leaves him and his daughter avoids him. When grisly murders and bad accidents begin to happen in Garrett and he sees people who died walking around, Scotty wonders whether to talk about it and be thought completely insane -- until suspicious newcomers become uncommonly interested in what he has to say. And until the owner of the Voice shows up to turn Scotty's world upside down. Literally. Because it's not what happens on the surface that matters; it's what has been going on beneath it for decades: a top-secret government project involving captured aliens with dangerous powers. One of them has made its escape, and government agents are desperately hunting it. Except that the villains and heroes are not necessarily who one might think... Scotty Waymore knows that; and he needs others to know before it's too late.
