The exploration of past lives and the time between lives enhances and deepens self-knowledge. When combined with the supporting philosophical and conceptual foundations, this same exploration may provide a powerful means for expanding consciousness as well as providing present life healing, self-awareness, and fulfillment of potential.From a broader perspective, we have only one life - an individual soul''s consciousness and existence on a continuum, divided into phases that we call lifetimes, much like a large book that is divided into chapters. And like a book, it would be difficult to read one chapter and truly grasp the fullness of the plot line and the character development without the context of the surrounding chapters.What do we do to ensure that our memories are going to be worthwhile? What are we doing to add depth, growth, expansion, balance, and love of self and life to our soul''s experience? And how can we be assured of retaining past memories, lessons, and knowledge, while maintaining the full context in which this life is playing out?In Exploring Past Lives: Your Soul''s Quest for Consciousness, Dr. LaBay gathers knowledge, concepts, research, and experience from over 20 years of personal exploration and clinical practice. Gain a firm foundation of the subject, along with concise strategies for exploring your own past life and between life memories. Even take a peek into the memories and experiences of others as you deepen your understanding of this fascinating and vital aspect of your soul''s quest for consciousness.

The authors manage to explain in a very direct way the relationship between enterprise high performance and each of the four steps to achieving it; all this, without getting bogged down with the details on specific techniques and practices that are generally known in the industry. The discussion stays focused on the importance of metrics and simulation and their link to overall financial/accounting concepts that gauge the value of the enterprise and its performance. Because the book touches on, and gives examples of, all major functional aspects of an enterprise, I would recommend it for use in an undergraduate strategic management or capstone course in business administration program. The book would be particularly useful in an MBA course. George Guim Ed.D. Head of Business Administration DepartmentThe National Hispanic University, San Jose, California

Kids Who Love Lines was written to educate children to the fun and ease of learning the names of lines. Its content assumes that the vocabulary of early geometry must be mastered before higher geometric concepts can be understood. Children in most of our 50 states must know by second grade the names for directional lines: left-to-right, up-and-down, slanted, and lines equidistant apart like the two rails of a railroad track.That''s where Horizontal Hanna, Vertical Veebee, Diagonal Doovie/ Oblique Ollie, Parallel Peetie and Circular Cybil come in. There are 33 wacky illustrations of these five outlandish characters. Their zany lives are described in easy to read rhyme. By the time you''re finished with these kids, you''ll discover that their "teaching" is practical and painless. And you will gain a new awareness and appreciation for the thousands of lines and line segments that fill our world and flood our imaginations. Kids Who Love Lines is just the beginning of someone''s exploration. It could be a child who doesn''t know the concept of diagonal/oblique. However, just one look and laugh at the antics of Diagonal Doovie/ Oblique Ollie and the concept is laid bare. No sweat. And here''s the hope: That child too will find a way into the see-saw world of slope.
The Northern Spotted Owl - An Oregon View tells the story of a battle to save the forests in a backdrop of economic troubles in the Pacific Northwest."The economy in the Pacific Northwest is a disaster," says the author. In January 2003, newspapers in Portland and Salem, Oregon, featured reports on the deplorable financial situation in state and local governments. Funds for social services have been slashed as state tax revenues continue to fall below projected levels on which all budgets are based. School funding is in crisis, with drastic spending cuts in schools, colleges and universities, resulting in cutbacks and even wholesale elimination of many high quality educational programs. Unemployment is at record levels, consistently placing Oregon with the fiftieth highest level of the fifty United States. News stories suggest that greatly reduced timber harvest on national forests may be a contributing factor to the economic problems of the region. Rightly or Wrongly, it was the Northern Spotted Owl that brought about that reduction in timber harvests.This book is the story of the spotted owl and its role in the interplay of environmentalism, the timber industry, the economy and ultimately the quality of life in the Pacific Northwest. This volume traces the battles that were fought and the pain and anguish of affected people from the vantage point of one Oregon state representative, Representative Liz VanLeeuwen, to preserve the forests and protect the owl. The book is based on resource material from 360 different sources, including government reports, news articles, correspondence and letters to the editors, Liz VanLeeuwen used to support her political position.Groups interested in making preservation of all forests in the Pacific Northwest their highest priority needed a means of legally preventing all or most timber harvest. They sought an issue on which to focus their legal battle. The Northern Spotted Owl ended up serving that purpose. Congress had passed the Endangered Species Act in 1973. A young biologist, Eric Forsman, had selected the Northern Spotted Owl for the subject of his graduate research, the conclusion of which was that the owl needed old growth forest for survival. Environmentalists took this conclusion and combined it with the legal power of the Endangered Species Act to stop timber harvests on federal land in the region. This book maps out just how successful the environmental campaign was in shutting down federal timber harvests-and also the devastating effect this process has had on the Pacific Northwest.Citizens in rural communities in western Washington and Oregon and northern California warned against the consequences of reduced federal timber harvest. These communities had developed and grown economically and socially based in large measure on jobs and infrastructure generated by the harvest of timber from the federally owned national forests. State and local governments in these regions also became dependent on the payments in lieu of taxes from the federal government for these timber harvests. The size of those payments was based on the amount of timber harvested. The funds, in the tens of millions of dollars, were used to support schools and build and maintain roads. The economy of the Pacific Northwest was based on this natural resource based economy.Citizens of these so-called timber-dependent communities understood that not only their local economies, but also those of their entire states and regions depended on the natural resource base. In fact, they understood this better than their counterparts in the region''s cities and populous suburbs. While small town residents and the politicians representing them warned of the dire consequences of closing down the timber industry, residents of the more populous areas felt confidant that they were justified in closing down timber. They congratulated themselves for having successfull
WHAT REALLY CAUSES AIDS:AN EXECUTIVE SUMMARYThe AIDS pandemic is likely to become the greatest catastrophe in human history. Unless a safe, effective vaccine is quickly developed, or the preventive strategies outlined in this book are widely applied, by 2015 one sixth of the world''s population will be infected by HIV-1 and some 250 million people will have died from AIDS. Its associated losses by then will be more than those of theBlack Death and World War II combined, the equivalent of eight World War Is.
