Sentencing in Time by Linda Ross Meyer (1 Review)    Price verified 6 minutes ago

Exactly how is it we think the ends of justice are accomplished by sentencing someone to a term in prison? How do we relate a quantitative measure of time -- months and years -- to the objectives of deterring crime, punishing wrongdoers, and accomplishing justice for those touched by a criminal act? Linda Ross Meyer investigates these questions, examining the disconnect between our two basic modes of thinking about time -- chronologically (seconds, minutes, hours), or phenomenologically (observing, taking note of, or being aware of the passing of time). In Sentencing in Time, Meyer asks whether -- in overlooking the irreconcilability of these two modes of thinking about time -- we are failing to accomplish the ends we believe the criminal justice system is designed to serve. Drawing on work in philosophy, legal theory, jurisprudence, and the history of penology, Meyer explores how, rather than condemning prisoners to an experience of time bereft of meaning, we might instead make the experience of incarceration constructively meaningful -- and thus better aligned with social objectives of deterring crime, reforming offenders, and restoring justice.

Diary of a Mormon Marine in Vietnam: by Alma L. Day by Alma Day (18 Reviews)    Price verified 17 minutes ago

Experiences of Alma Day, a Mormon during the Vietnam War 1966 to 1968 who shares his perspective of warfare while actively staying true to his religious convictions and while serving with war-hardened Marines where violence and vice surrounded all. Alma miraculously survives a close-range grenade attack and, after recovering, heroically chose to return to Vietnam when given the option to stay in the United States to finish his service. When he returned to Vietnam, he was assigned to serve with the "Fighting Fifth", First Battalion, Fifth Marines, the most highly decorated regiment in the Marine Corps and documents how he survived, on the prayers of his family back home, the Battle of Hue, one of the bloodiest and longest battles of the Vietnam War. Alma also shares the experiences of a few other Marines who did not make it back to have their honorable service properly documented. The realities of war are thoroughly, yet delicately described to give the reader a sense of what transpired without offending your sensibilities. Below are a few excerpts from the book: "Our Judo teacher told us how he killed several Koreans with his bare hands, and how he enjoyed watching the men die in slow agony. Most of the men acted interested. When he screamed, "Kill! Kill! Kill!" they responded like Hitler's hysterical audiences. I wonder what these men will do in Vietnam. Natural charm and creativeness seems distant and dead to them... I decided that never again would I point an accusing finger at some far-off Nazi regime, as being the prime example of barbarism. The seeds of the same vicious contempt for our enemies are in our very ranks today." "... I walked closer to see what the young mothers were bending over. They were rocking back and forth in a weeping incantation. No one could comfort them. I could see the little bodies that our two short rounds had killed as they played. How small they lay! Oh, such tiny forms, still soft from life they played in ...

Jesus Is A Black Man: An Inconvenient TRUTH by Evangelist T. C. Wanyanwu (91 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

In the ancient times, it was no secret that Jesus Christ was a Black man from the tribe of Judah. The early Jews knew it because they were also Blacks. The Romans knew it, and the Greeks knew it. In fact, all the people of his time, and long afterwards, knew that the Messiah Christ Jesus was a Black man. This book is an inconvenient truth that you may not be ready to read. Through this book, you get answers to the following: ? What is the mind of God on Idolatry which consists not only in the worship of false gods, but also in the worship of the true God by images? ? Is Jesus really a Black man from the tribe of Judah? ? If Jesus is black then does the bible support it? ? Are Black people the original Hebrew Israelites? ? Is there any forensic and scientific proof that the messiah was black? ? Who is the man in the picture that is displayed in most churches around the world? ? Why is the colour of Jesus very important in revelation of the Anti-Christ? The answers to these all important and many more questions can be found in this book. This book is recommendable to every truth seeker who is uncomfortable with the lies, deception and conspiracy theories orchestrated by the wicked one and his agents to rob Jesus of his deity and true identity. It is not designed to be user friendly and it is an affront to racism living in the walls of churches and in the West.

Relationships - Who needs them? Relationships have become more exhausting than exhilarating. Is it just me? When I'm single, I'm prowling for my love. It's costly to my sanity and to my wallet, trying to determine if she likes me -- then doing things to make her like me more (and get naked). When I'm in a relationship, I'm juggling texts, dates, her family gatherings, and baseball, doing my best to avoid disappointing my lover. Is it better to be married or single? Do you wonder what life would be like on the other side? When married, how peaceful single life could be. When single, how marriage might cure loneliness. Having been on both sides, I'm unsure which is better. There are great parts of both. Either way, you'll relate to these essays. Whether you're male, female, or something in between; whether you're eighteen or eighty or something in between -- you're going to relate to the following pages in some way. I guarantee it. I also guarantee I will push your buttons. I'll make you giggle and piss you off. That's intentional. I just hope you're entertained by my relationship disasters. Heck, maybe my mistakes will save you from a similar fate (another pet). Let's drink, drink, and be single. Enjoy the ride, my friends. If you ever see me at my office (a bar), put a hand on my shoulder, share a frosty beverage, and let's steer each other away from the dangerous cliffs of love.

The Ministry of the Apostle Paul by James Thomas Lee Jr (1 Review)    Price verified 6 minutes ago

When this book was begun in late November 2013, the intent was to write a commentary on chapter five of Paul's letter to the church at Ephesus. But about fifty pages into that endeavor, it became clear that the book was not going in that direction. For one thing, his letter to that church had not even been mentioned in those pages. For another, the focus up to that point had been on Paul's missionary journeys. The reason for those problems was that the original intent had been to put his letter to the church into the context of his journeys. But there was so much to say about the journeys that his letter to the church had taken a back seat. So the title was changed to its current title, and the remaining efforts were applied in that direction. This book is a history of Paul's ministry. Great effort has been expended to try to date when and where Paul had gone. Then, at each stopping point, the more significant events of what had happened to him are shared. Most people would probably not think of him as taking five separate missionary journeys. But that is because the first one and the last one were not as carefully documented as the middle three. In the pages that follow, the reader will be able to clearly see those five journeys, plus his two separate imprisonments in Rome. Most people also have probably never attempted to put his writing of his thirteen letters to the churches and certain individuals into the context of what was going on in his life at the time. But this book has done that and has also dedicated space to trying to report what he was saying in those letters. For example, the person who reads this book will learn what Paul had meant when he wrote in Romans 1:20-32 that God turned certain individuals over to a reprobate mind. He or she will learn what Paul had meant in I Timothy 2:11-15 when he wrote about women being silent in the church. He or she will learn what Paul had meant in I Timothy 3:1-7 concerning men and women being involved in the ...

The Future of Being Human and Other Essays by Sylvia Engdahl (3 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

What will humans be like in the future? According to science fiction author Sylvia Engdahl, they will be no different from what they're like now. There will be many innovations in technology and ways of daily life, but people are people, wherever and whenever they happen to live, and that's not going to change. In this book Engdahl departs from the theme of space colonization on which her past essays (available in her book From This Green Earth) have focused, and discusses such topics as artificial intelligence, "paranormal" psi powers, healthcare policy, and the coming loss of personal privacy. Her controversial views on these subjects will inspire thought about what the future is likely to bring.
