Thou Shall Decree a thing (Volume 1): Prayers to enforce your Protection by Christian Benjamin (148 Reviews)    Price verified 47 minutes ago

AS YOU MAKE DECREES, HEAVEN ENFORCES THEM ON YOUR BEHALF "Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee,... Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee... " Job 22:27-28 Life is a contest like someone said, it is either you win or you are won! The daily occurrences we face seem to release fear and tension all around us as such, if we must live victorious lives, we must fight according to the rules. One fundamental rule of life is that everything is controlled by the word of mouth. According to Neurologists, the human speech organ possesses the greatest number of neurons in the body and dominates all other neurons in the human body. Further into their research, the speech nerve has been found to rule over other nerves in the body. This finding goes a long way to agree with the scripture that states thus: "Death and life are in the power of the tongue... " Prov. 18:21 God exemplified this when in creation he used the word of mouth to enforce his acts: "And God said, Let there be light: and there was light" Gen. 1:3 "And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so" Gen. 1:9 The above two scriptural verses and many others confirm the enormous power in spoken words. In the wake of all the evil news that we hear every day, rather than live in fear, this book comes to you as a voice of encouragement, calling you to stand your ground and enforce your protection as already put in place by the almighty. He says: "There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling" Psalm 91:10 "For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone" Psalm 91:11-12 To further reveal the power in the tongue, Jesus speaking says: "... Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the ...

He outlines and explains what most redlining cases have in common and gives financial institutions practical solutions on how to address these problems.

"I was shocked by how much I learned, but more than that, his approach is non-threatening and the solutions are pragmatic. I have learned that the industry trusts him and relies on his education and solutions. Tory is passionate about fairness, but also about banking and the critical role it plays in our lives. His efforts bring value." -- MICHAEL L. STEVENS, President & CEO, Graduate School of Banking at Colorado "Discrimination in banking lending can have an effect on generations of Americans. Working to call attention to this and helping to end discrimination is an admirable cause. This is a cause that Tory Haggerty has been addressing for a long time. His new book, "The Thick Red Line" is another effort to push for fair lending practices. These efforts are to be applauded." -- GEOFF BACINO, Former National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) Board member, Former Federal Housing Finance Board member "Haggerty provides a passionate call to action and argues compellingly that through stronger anti-discrimination policies, improved financial education, and a collective commitment to expanding access to credit, we can finally start to unwind the harms caused by redlining. This is a must-read for anyone in the banking industry." -- MARK TREICHEL, Former Executive Director, National Credit Union Administration "Tory Haggerty is a true champion for helping community banks navigate the regulatory and compliance landscape in a way that serves the best interest of the public and community banks.

The Experience of Alien Royal Servants in Thirteenth-Century England by Michael Ray (3 Reviews)    Price verified 29 minutes ago

At the beginning of the thirteenth century, King John lost his Norman and Angevin lands to the King of France. The Anglo-Norman nobility had to choose which King to support and accept the loss of their lands under the rule of the King they had disowned. However, John continued to rely on his trusted Normans as soldiers and officials, many of whom were instrumental in preventing the son of the King of France from seizing the throne, first from John, and after his death in 1216 from his son Henry III. Despite their service to the crown, many of these aliens were disenfranchised during Henry's minority as the English baronage and clergy whipped up hostility against them. Henry later encouraged the arrival of two further groups of aliens into England, the Savoyards and Poitevins, who were relatives of his mother and wife. He lavished patronage on them as a way to consolidate his power both at home and abroad. In 1263 Simon de Montfort revived hostility against aliens in his war against the King. This whole period marks a pronounced awareness of the Englishness of those born in England. Henry's successors continued to employ and foster the careers of aliens but the Montfortian wars taught them to tread carefully. The chapters in this book cover the reigns of John, Henry III and the first three Edwards. They show how some families accumulated considerable rewards. Some weathered prejudice and became fully assimilated. Some did not and never established firm roots in England. What stands out is that all of the aliens studied repaid the Kings with loyalty and efficiency.

And it was no accident. When the castle's head of security tells me to keep my nose out as I ask a few questions, I know I should listen, but I can never resist a puzzle.

Ultramarine by Victoria Mosley (1 Review)    Price verified 54 minutes ago

''Life affirming, a beautiful read... '' ''I think Ultramarine is extraordinary, extraordinary and brilliant, and it keeps it up the whole way through. You are ''take me or leave me'' savage, and yet you write of things being so beautiful. The mixture of poetry and prose works well... Your originality is that you are deliberately talking to yourself. What I mean by that is that you are writing for the words. I am a bit awe struck!'' Nicholas Mosley. The Tibetan monks say that in some sense we choose our own incarnation, yet in the dark times all I could ask was why me? When I started to write this diary the reason became clear. This is a diary which runs from January to January, but it is a diary with a difference. The poems are written in the present and then the images and feelings that they evoked took me to scenes from my past, or to relationships that had their roots in my childhood patterns of relating. I wanted to write about the terror and abuse in my childhood in the way in which I learnt to deal with it, as a gateway to the Universe and to utilise each trauma a useful tool for my art. I learnt to look at myself from the outside in in order to cope and stay sane. The links between the ''now'' and the ''back then'' came naturally, I like the way that the poems morphed into something else, something strong and yet for me profound. I like the feeling that so much ugliness can create beauty.

Busy: A Manifesto for Distracted Times by Carl Phillips (3 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

Look up for a moment, take in what is happening around you. What do you see? A sea of calm, happy faces perhaps. All focused on helping each other make the world a better place, in some small but meaningful way. Trying their best to leave positive footprints on the earth. Working hard but balancing that with ample time to rest. Making time for those that matter most. Being present and grateful for this moment. Totally in tune with life. Or is the picture a little different? Is everyone rushing around? Hustling and bustling. Running from commitment to commitment. Complaining they 'don't have time'. Not at all present, always thinking ahead, to whatever they are rushing to next. I'm guessing the picture you see is closer to example two. Everyone seems so busy. Busy on the phone. Busy juggling and multi-tasking. Busy trying to keep up. Busy trying not to drown under the mountain that is the latest 'urgent'. Mostly it seems, busy being busy. How many of us find ourselves fighting this daily battle with busyness in our lives? Feeling like all our time is accounted for, before we really get started with our day. Busyness, it seems, has reached epidemic proportions. We're busy, but what is getting done? So where is all this collective busyness getting us? Are we making the world a better place? Is all this busy meaning we get to spend quality time with our friends and loved ones? Is being busy meaning we get to make time for our hobbies and passion projects? Is busy meaning we get more quality work done? Quality, not just sheer quantity. Is busy leading us to less stress? Is it meaning we live healthy, balanced lives, full of adventures and positive challenges? If the answer is yes, great -- let's celebrate and keep on with all this busyness. Let's keep engaging with it. Let's keep chasing it. If the answer is no, perhaps we need to step back and ask a bigger question: Why are we spending time invested in busy, ...

Well, she was just a normal teenage girl trying to survive college in the totalitarian state of Tracy Lawson's creation." --review by Patrick Hodges "Careen is a believable, strong female protagonist who, having survived a harrowing terrorist attack, is now trying to survive [college] in a new 'Quadrant' where she can't seem to fit in." --review by Candace Williams A strong heroine is made, not born.

The Master of Suspense: The Life and Legacy of Alfred Hitchcock by Charles River Editors (63 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

*Includes pictures. *Includes Hitchcock's quotes about directing and explains the key themes and techniques associated with his films. *Includes a bibliography for further reading. *Includes a table of contents. "I am a typed director. If I made Cinderella, the audience would immediately be looking for a body in the coach." - Alfred Hitchcock, 1956 In the opening pages of his seminal book-length study of Alfred Hitchcock, Hitchcock's Films (1965), Robin Wood famously asked, "Why Should We Take Hitchcock Seriously?" Wood then proceeded to offer a detailed examination of Hitchcock's career to that point, arguing that the Master of Suspense belonged among the ranks of the preeminent directors in Hollywood, and that his films were among the most important in American culture. When Wood was asking that question, he wasn't asking it rhetorically and was arguing for Hitchcock's relevance, which seems strange today because Hitchcock is now a Hollywood icon. No one would even think of asking that same question today, as just about every American is familiar with Hitchcock's work in some way or another. Hitchcock is regarded as perhaps the most famous and influential director in history, so Wood's question back in 1965 at least demonstrates the evolution of Hitchcock's reputation and the critical reception of his career. Indeed, as revered as Hitchcock is today, it is telling that he was never awarded an Academy Award during his career (though he was given an honorary Oscar after his retirement.) Vertigo (1958), for example, is now considered one of the landmark films of the classical Hollywood cinema, but it was both a box office and a critical flop upon its release. Other Hitchcock films, such as Psycho (1960) and North by Northwest (1959), performed well at the box office but were not viewed as high art. Indeed, it was not until the rise of Film Studies as an academic discipline - a development that saw Hitchcock's films get co-opted by scholars of the horror and ...
