  • Famine and Foreigners: Ethiopia Since Live Aid This Page Intentionally Left Blank Famine and Foreigners: Ethiopia Since Live Aid
    ‘Th ank God for great journalism. Th is book is a much needed, ex- haustively researched and eff ortlessly well written recent history of Ethiopia. A book that strips away the cant and rumour, the pros and antis and thoroughly explains the people, politics and economics of that most beautiful nation. A superb and vital piece of work by some- one who clearly loves the country of which he writes.’ Bob Geldof ‘Th e great Ethiopian famine changed everything and nothing. It fun- damentally altered the rich world’s sense of its responsibility to the hungry and the poor, but didn’t solve anything. A quarter of a century on, we’re still arguing about the roots of the problem, let alone the so- lution, and—though there has been progress—Ethiopia’s food inse- curity gets worse, not better. Peter Gill was one of the most thorough and eff ective television journalists of his generation. He was there in 1984 and his work at the time added up to the most sensible, balanced and comprehensive explanation of what had happened. Twenty-fi ve years later, he’s gone back to test decades of aspiration against the re- alities on the ground. It’s a book that bridges journalism and history, judicious analysis with a strong, and often gripping, narrative. Always readable, but never glib, this is a must for all those who think there is a simple answer to the famine, still waiting in the wings. ’ Michael Buerk ‘No outsider understands Ethiopia better than Peter Gill. He com- bines compassion with a clinical commitment to the truth.

  • The Zodiac and the Salts of Salvation
    The Zodiac and the Salts of Salvation Part ONE The Relation of the Mineral Salts of the Body to the Signs of the Zodiac (15th and Memorial Edition) By Dr. George Washington Carey Copyright 1932 by Inez Eudora Perry, Hollywood CA USA Healing with the 12 Cell Salts! Give yourself the gift of good health! It’s the greatest source of true wealth. The following is my summary version of Part 1 of this book that I assembled because I found the contents so incredibly valuable in helping humanity heal its sicknesses, and know most people won’t take the time to plow through it all. To those who have the time and interest to read this 350 page book I highly recommend it to the serious student. It is jam packed with historical wisdom taken from The Bible, Greek and Roman texts and mythology, the Secret Doctrine, Sanskrit, Buddhist and Asian wisdom. Barbara D. Kennedy, December 2017 [email protected] These Cell Salts can be purchased at health food stores, Sprout’s and Whole Foods. I tend to the Hyland”s brand, but Boiron is very good also. After thoroughly studying this book, I have decided to take the recommended dosage daily of the “All In One Bottle 12 Cell Salts – on a regular basis as a minimum baseline to my constructive health regime - adding the separate Cell Salts as any symptoms may dictate OR add to the baseline 12 salts that specific one for the astrological sign of the month. It seems to me - with the challenges humans have giving the body what it needs - daily - that it is wise for everyone do the same! Creative fun! If you have an interest in knowing more about the specifics of how these cell salts work within your individual body based on your unique astrological influences, contact me.

  • I READ COMIC BOOKS February 2019 a Zine a Word from Mike
    I READ COMIC BOOKS February 2019 a zine A Word from Mike Welcome to the latest IRCB Zine! This edition is going to be a little bit different than the last few. The IRCB crew came together to make a zine but we all sort of realized that, hey, this was far less exciting than we had originally thought. We were having a little less fun putting this zine together than we wanted, so for this edition, I’m hoping that we delivered something a little more out there and fun for you, dear reader, because for us? This issue was a blast to make. I only want to take a short moment here to talk about something I’m aiming to do in 2019: Read More Backlog Comics. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I have an extensive backlog of comics that I’ve picked up at cons, in the shop, or in some digital sale. With the books I’m reading week after week, I never actually get around to reading those books. It’s been a real dilemma for me! I joked about it in the first few days of 2018, but I truly considered dropping all of my regular pulled comics from my LCS and on comiXology in order to make a sig- nificant dent in my backlog. The idea was: I could not buy any new comics until I got through most, if not all, of my backlog comics. Yeah. I know. That sounds insane. Of course, my impulse control and FOMO got the best me and I didn’t actually do any of this.

  • Archons (Commanders) [NOTICE: They Are NOT Anlien Parasites], and Then, in a Mirror Image of the Great Emanations of the Pleroma, Hundreds of Lesser Angels
    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

  • Li'l Abner in Washington Today by Irv Sternberg a New York Mayor Read
    Imagine: Li’l Abner in Washington Today By Irv Sternberg A New York mayor read them to children on the radio every Sunday morning. Some mimicked real people. They offered a daily respite from the dark days of the Depression, and were part of my life in the thirties and forties. My favorite comic strips as a child growing up in that period were ‘Li’l Abner,’ ‘Prince Valiant,’ ‘Dick Tracy,’ ‘Blondie,’ and ‘Rex Morgan, MD.’ Some can still be read in certain newspapers, a testimonial to their popularity over the decades. I’ve always favored cartoons that featured quirky characters in uncluttered drawings and told funny or exciting stories in a crisp style. I was amused by Li’l Abner and his friends in hillbilly country, by the well-told adventures and beautifully drawn panels of ‘Prince Valiant’ in the days of King Arthur, and by tough, square- jawed Dick Tracy who introduced the two-way radio wristwatch and the police procedural genre to the comic strips. Now, in the winter of my life, I still read the comics. My current favorites are ‘Pickles,’ ‘Zits,’ ‘Pluggers,’ ‘Luann,’ and ‘Beetle Bailey.’ I like ‘Pickles’ and ‘Pluggers’ because the writers seem to be eavesdropping on my life. In ‘Pickles,’ I relate to his characters, Earl and Opal. I recognize the oddball situations and sometimes testy conversation between these two old-timers. ‘Pluggers’ seems to be based on hilarious situations too close for comfort. ‘Zits’ is about a self-centered, self-indulgent teenager whose behavior is so outrageous I’m just grateful he’s not mine.

WISCONSIN MOTOR CORPORATION MILWAUKEE 46, WISCONSIN MI-498 INTRODUCTION This manual has been compiled to suit the service requirements of the basic engine and accessories most commonly supplied with engines. Wisconsin Motor Corporation adapts its engines to suit individual customer requirements whenever practical. It evidently would become too involved to include all variations in one manual; therefore, should any problems arise concerning engine servicing, we advise that a Wisconsin distributor or authorized service station be contacted as they are cap• able of identifying all parts by the specification number stamped on the name plate of engine. A listing of approved Wisconsin service stations appears in the back of this manual. Wisconsin heavy duty air cooled engines are of the most advanced design and are built in a modern factory, equipped with the latest machinery available. Only the best materials, most suitable for the particular part, are used. During production every part is subjected to the most rigid inspection, as are also the completely assembled engines. After as• sembly, every engine is operated on its own power for several hours, and all adjustments are carefully made so that each engine will be in perfect operating condition when it leaves the factory.

    Page 14 Colby Free Press Wednesday, January 18, 2006 For Better or Worse • Lynn Johnston Crossword Bridge Garfield • Jim Davis As a rule, a grand slam should not be undertaken unless the chances in favor of making it are at least 2- to-1. These odds come from comparing what can be gained from making the grand slam — an additional 500 or 750 points, depending on vulnerability — to what can be lost — approximately 1,000 or 1,500 points, again depending on vulnerability. It follows that bidding a grand slam that depends on Hagar the Horrible • Chris Browne a finesse — a 50-50 chance — is in the long run a los- ing proposition. Unfortunately, a player can’t always tell whether that’s what the grand slam will depend on. In the present case, for example, South didn’t know whether his partner had the king of spades but decided to bid seven anyway. He reasoned that even if North lacked the king, there might be alternative chances for 13 tricks, with a spade finesse still available as a last resort. South then proceeded to demonstrate that his assessment of the prospects was correct. After winning the diamond lead, he led the five of clubs to the jack, cashed the A-K of hearts, discarding two spades, then ruffed a heart with the ten. When both opponents followed suit to the three heart leads, the grand slam became a certainty. Blondie • Chic Young Declarer next led the six of clubs to the nine and ruffed another heart with the queen, establishing dummy’s two remaining hearts.

In the span of five years, the balance of power in the comic book field had changed dramatically. Industry leader Dell had fallen out of favor thanks to a 1962 split with client Western Publications that resulted in the latter producing comics for themselves—much of it licensed properties—as the widely-respected Gold Key Comics.
