"I CAN DO IT, I WANT TO FLY!" started out as one of the bedtime stories I would tell my youngest son. It evolved over time and became a lesson on the power of the words can or can't. There were times the story was shorter than the previous time I told it and times I would elaborate details depending on how enthused I was about story time. As a busy Dad, I looked forward to this time of night. I hope this story helps empower your child with a lesson that can be applied in all phases of life.

Ariella Segal, a highly trained member of Israel Defense Forces' elite division, is the perfect woman for the job.History's newest power couple must contend with Vincente Basile, the bad guy to end all bad guys. Vincente's unprecedented genius and a life forged in a powerful Italian mafia family, produces the ideal adversary.These men have different God-ordained assignments: Josh's is to feed those who refuse Vincente's wicked agenda; Vincente's is to lead many to destruction.

Robert had never used his father’s invention for personal gain, but saving the life of his brother was a risk he just had to take. Unfortunately, no matter how much preparation is involved, things can never go as planned when you’re playing with the very fabric of the space-time continuum. If Robert succeeds, he will rob the family who is plotting to kill his brother of their power from the moment they acquired it, deep in the past. But if he fails, it could be more than just his brother’s life that is in jeopardy. Either way, he will certainly alter history and create a new timeline of events, which in turn will radically change the life he has always known. But will there be a price to pay for his actions? Consequences for “playing God?” Perhaps most importantly, if things go wrong, could any of the damage ever be fixed?

A comprehensive study of Oman presenting a portrait of a nation through its diplomacy.For Oman, the idea of diplomacy refers not only to the country's interactions in the global community, but also to the way in which Omani life itself is shaped by principles and practices of social and political engagement that are essentially diplomatic. Such principles are grounded in ideals of tact and tolerance that have developed over a long historical period.This is therefore a cultural history: an historical account of the formation of a distinctive Omani culture. It argues that this culture is where Oman's contemporary foreign policy has been nurtured, and that it is in this culture that a specific conception and practice of diplomacy has been developed.Key Features*the most comprehensive history in English of Oman's international relations*draws upon key research into Omani religious and social traditions, and ethnographic studies of language and social customs. *provides a perspective which places Oman at its centre, rather than as a background actor in broader colonial narratives, Cold War calculations or global concerns over the relationship between Islam and the West*presents an account of Oman's contemporary behind-the-scenes role in relation to Iranian US relations, and the Middle East peace process*the first book to connect Oman's international relations with considerations of Omani history, culture and social organisation
