Reed and Michael J. Oard, Editors 2006. Creation Research Society, 157 pages. Regular price: $15.00; Member price: $11.00. Many wonder how the evolutionary/uniformitarian geologic column fits into diluvial geology. At present, there is a remarkable diversity of original thought on this subject. Recent exchanges in the creationist literature show a tendency for various participants to talk past one another. This book has brought these different perspectives together with two goals: 1) to better define the real differences within diluvial geology, and 2) to identify the concrete issues that will provide a basis for continued research and, hope- fully, future resolution. The editors went one step further by providing, at the end of most chapters, a forum with comments and responses. In addition to ththee editors, the other authors are: Terry Mortenson, Peter Klevberg, Carl Froede Jr., David J. Tyler, Harold G. Coffin, and Emil Silvestru. Though it may be difficult to visualize now, diluvial geology represents a major paradigm shift that holds the potential to stimulate a revolution within the earth sciences. Creation vs. Evolution Debate 2006. Creation Research Society, approx. 45 minutes. Audio CD. Regular price: $10.00; Member price: $8.00. Dr. Kevin Anderson (director of the Society’s Van Andel Creation Research Center) squares off against local Arizona anti-creationist, Nigel Reynolds. The debate features initial arguments by both presenters followed by lively rebuttals, cross-examinations, and audience questions. This debate provides the listener an excellent opportunity to weigh the arguments of each side and seriously consider where the scientific evidence best fits.

  • Emily Jane Brontë - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Emily Jane Brontë - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Emily Jane Brontë(30 July 1818 – 19 December 1848) Emily Brontë was an English novelist and poet, best remembered for her only novel, Wuthering Heights, now considered a classic of English literature. Emily was the third eldest of the four surviving Brontë siblings, between the youngest Anne and her brother Branwell. She published under the pen name Ellis Bell. <b>Biography</b> Emily Brontë was born on 30 July 1818 in Thornton, near Bradford in Yorkshire, to Maria Branwell and Patrick Brontë. She was the younger sister of Charlotte Brontë and the fifth of six children. In 1824, the family moved to Haworth, where Emily's father was perpetual curate, and it was in these surroundings that their literary gifts flourished. <b>Early Life and Education</b> After the death of their mother in 1821, when Emily was three years old, the older sisters Maria, Elizabeth and Charlotte were sent to the Clergy Daughters' School at Cowan Bridge, where they encountered abuse and privations later described by Charlotte in Jane Eyre. Emily joined the school for a brief period. When a typhus epidemic swept the school, Maria and Elizabeth caught it. Maria, who may actually have had tuberculosis, was sent home, where she died. Emily was subsequently removed from the school along with Charlotte and Elizabeth. Elizabeth died soon after their return home. The three remaining sisters and their brother Patrick Branwell were thereafter educated at home by their father and aunt Elizabeth Branwell, their mother's sister.

L SCHIRMER & CO., 338 Boylston Street, Boston, Mass. — THE function of the Boston Symphony Orchestra always has been to provide music of the highest class in the most perfect manner humanly possible. Such was the sole object of its founder, and that this ideal has been not only attained, but maintained, finds eloquent testimony in the generous and loyal support given to the Orchestra in the past twenty-eight years by the most discriminating musical publics in America. Only by adhering steadfastly to this ideal since its founda- tion has the Orchestra been able to hold its present position without a superior in the world and without a peer in this country. Commercial considerations have never been permitted to interfere with or to obstruct its artistic progress. It has ex- isted as nearly for art's sake alone as is possible in such a great organization. The result of this wise policy is an orchestra which is famous in all countries where the art of music is practised, an orchestra which is accepted as a model to be fol- lowed by all others, an orchestra whose concerts are eagerly sought by all cities, whose coming is always an event of prime importance in a musical season.
