The past is not past. We may think something ancient history, or something that doesn't affect our present day, but we would be wrong. Those Who Saw the Sun is a collection of oral histories told by Black people who grew up in the South during the time of Jim Crow. Jaha Nailah Avery is a lawyer, scholar, and reporter whose family has roots in North Carolina stretching back over 300 years. These interviews have been a personal passion project for years as she's traveled across the South meeting with elders and hearing their stories One of the most important things a culture can do is preserve history, truthfully. In Those Who Saw the Sun we have the special experience of hearing this history as it was experienced by those who were really there. The opportunity to read their stories, their similarities and differences, where they agree and disagree, and where they overcame obstacles and found joy – feels truly like a gift.

Do you want God’s best for your life? Do you want to feel special to Him? Do you want some answers in some very difficult situations? Do you want to hear how others have “walked on the water?” Do you want to “touch the hem of His garment?” Do you want to drink from the “well that never shall run dry?” Are you walking in the sunshine or the dark shadows of life? Whatever your circumstances might be, this book is for you. This book is for your daughter. This book is one that you and your husband could read together It is not about the author or her opinion, but the universal and not optional principles of God. It demonstrates living illustrations of the consequences of their application or the failure to employ them. You can laugh, you can cry, you can sympathize with those that wept, and you can learn to forgive. Life is on a moving walkway taking you steadily toward a door marked “death”. There are all sorts of varying circumstances en route. God says, “This is the Way, walk ye in it.” Often in the dark shadows of life, or even in the sunlight we ask “What is the Way?” The people in this book asked that question. They found the “Way.” Our God answered their cry, and they chose to follow His directions, even though it sometimes seemed against their common sense. You’ll find answers that can change your whole perspective on life. Those that took the challenge to pray a very simple short prayer “Lord, change me” are living examples of changed lives. The results were not dependent upon God changing the circumstances. They were willing for God to change them in their circumstances. If you’re reading this and you have an irregular person in your life, let me encourage you. That irregular person has hurts and they have walked into your life because God has trusted you to be a big part of their “healing.” Perhaps they have never heard that God loves them just the way they are, but He loves them too much to leave them that way. You can be a very strong link between them and God. You decide. “Do you want God’s best for your life.?”

"Academic rivals portrayed to perfection… An all-time top favorite." —Chloe Gong, #1 New York Times bestselling author of These Violent Delights and Our Violent Ends "Utterly unique, thought-provoking, and wonderfully written." —Gloria Chao, author of American Panda and Rent a Boyfriend In this genre-bending , speculative YA debut, a Chinese American girl monetizes her strange new invisibility powers by discovering and selling her wealthy classmates’ most scandalous secrets.

My name is Mitchell Wayne. I was born in 1963 in the smaller town of Red Wing, Minnesota. One hour south of the twin cities. It was a nice quiet town to grow up in, with lots of parks and lots of bluffs to explore. I was the forth child of four. 2 brothers and one sister. All older than me. Throughout this book I will refer to them as: 1. My brother, He is the oldest being 10 years older than I am. 2. Fly, which was his nickname. He was 9 years older than me, being born exactly one year after my brother, on his 1st birthday. 3. My sister, who is about 6 years older than me. I grew up as close to being an only child as one could be. I can barely remember any siblings living at home when I was. My brother was a bare foot hippie from the sixties. Fly was a rough and tough redneck drinking his Schmidt big mouth bottles and my sister was the princess who could do no wrong. I consider baby boomers to be the generation that spent their high school years with the Viet Nam war looming in their futures. One might think me and my sister being close but we are from two different peer groups. She was a good student that spent much of her time studying so she could get into a good college. I spent most of my time partying and skipping school. I ended up dropping out of high school in 11th grade. Even though I did eventually straighten out enough to get my high school equivalency, and later received a two year associate degree in electronics. There were

A FORTIORI LOGIC: INNOVATIONS, HISTORY AND ASSESSMENTS, by Avi Sion, is a wide-ranging and in-depth study of a fortiori reasoning, comprising a great many new theoretical insights into such argument, a history of its use and discussion from antiquity to the present day, and critical analyses of the main attempts at its elucidation. Its purpose is nothing less than to lay the foundations for a new branch of logic, and greatly develop it; and thus to once and for all dispel the many fallacious ideas circulating regarding the nature of a fortiori reasoning.

China’s most sophisticated system of computational astronomy was created for a Mongol emperor who could neither read nor write Chinese, to celebrate victory over China after forty years of devastating war. This book explains how and why, and reconstructs the observatory and the science that made it possible. For two thousand years, a fundamental ritual of government was the emperor’s “granting the seasons” to his people at the New Year by issuing an almanac containing an accurate lunisolar calendar. The high point of this tradition was the “Season-granting system” (Shou-shih li, 1280). Its treatise records detailed instructions for computing eclipses of the sun and moon and motions of the planets, based on a rich archive of observations, some ancient and some new. Sivin, the West’s leading scholar of the Chinese sciences, not only recreates the project’s cultural, political, bureaucratic, and personal dimensions, but translates the extensive treatise and explains every procedure in minimally technical language. The book contains many tables, illustrations, and aids to reference. It is clearly written for anyone who wants to understand the fundamental role of science in Chinese history. There is no comparable study of state science in any other early civilization.

This monograph discusses the Zohar, the most important book of the Kabbalah, as a late strata of the Midrashic literature. The author concentrates on the 'expanded' biblical stories in the Zohar and on its relationship to the ancient Talmudic Aggadah. The analytical and critical examination of these biblical themes reveals aspects of continuity and change in the history of the old Aggadic story and its way into the Zoharic corpus. The detailed description of this literary process also reveals the world of the authors of the Zohar, their spiritual distress, mystical orientations, and self-consciousness.
