Book Description
Tired of those organizational binges where you shuffle stuff from one room to another-and just end up with a neater mess? Then let this book show you the secrets of putting your home in order and keeping it that way! Most books tell you how to find a place for everything, then to put everything in its place. Alice Fulton-Osborne and Pauline Hatch add one vital step for lasting success: they show you how to find more places by streamlining first, THEN organizing. With their unique room-by-room approach, they take you through every drawer, closet and cupboard in your home, helping you weed out what you don't like, use, need, want, or have room for, and properly store what's left. You'll learn... The three reasons people cling to things they don't like, use, need, want, or have room for, and how to overcome them, The real definition of clutter, and why it is a stress-maker and an energy-zapper, and what to do with it by using the authors' Eight Streamlining Steps, How to save energy and time (up to two months per year), and create comfortable, productivity-boosting environments, The secrets professional custodians use to clean any bathroom (in five to ten minutes), How to get more help from family members in maintaining the home, simply by creating "reasonable responsibilities", How to create more storage space and take storage areas that currently exist, from the state of "lost in space" to "found in place", How to visually expand living and working spaces and create low-to no-maintenance rooms, Specific ideas for organizing each room in your house-from master bedroom to sewing room, bathroom to baby's room, and family room to back porch-with a variety of kitchen set-up ideas. You'll discover that this system not only helps you keep your house in order, but the familiar feelings of being overbooked, overworked and overwhelmed are eliminated as you eliminate clutter and overload from your home and workplace. It's Here... Somewhere will give you an advantage over whatever your day has to offer! Book jacket.

Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
From California coastal redwoods to giant sequoias in the Sierra, from practical jokes of adolescence to unexpected epiphanies marking an academic career, the many poems in Somewhere to Follow range through the life of a poet on the lookout for what comes next. In this his seventh volume of poetry, Paul Willis ascends the switchbacks of ordinary experience to cross paths with song-leading rangers, exhausted mothers, dirt-loving children, terrified immigrants, Arctic climbers, face-masked students, beatified counselors, rejected suitors, honest morticians, talking ferns, mourning crows, stinking fungi, vengeful rivers, raging fires, faithful brothers, the world's largest pinecones, and an innocent pair of twin grandsons. Also present in these pages are the Virgin Mary, Sir Philip Sidney, George Vancouver, David Douglas, John Muir, Ernest Hemingway, and the inimitable Ruth Kerr of the Kerr Canning Jar Company. Throughout this collection, one hears Willis's unique tone: quietly observant, worldly wise and yet still full of wonder, alert to the surprises and vistas that can only be found by striking out on your own. Take the path that each poem offers and find for yourself Somewhere to Follow.

Set at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, this is the story of the orphaned Penry children, forced to flee from the cruel and unjust employment in north west Devon.

At the end of their endurance they are later rescued by a woman named Meg, who lives alone in an isolated cottage. She restores them to health, and finds them occupation with a distant relative who lives near Tavistock in Devon.

John Duns Scotus
Author: Etienne Gilson
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0567678709
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 502
Book Description
Étienne Gilson's Jean Duns Scot: Introduction À Ses Positions Fondamentales is widely understood to be one of the most important works on John Duns Scotus' texts, famous for their complexity. James Colbert's translation is the first time that Gilson's work on Scotus has been put into English, with an introduction by Trent Pomplun and an afterword by John Millbank. Scotus contributed to the development of a metaphysical system that was compatible with Christian doctrine, an epistemology that altered the 13th century understanding of human knowledge, and a theology that stressed both divine and human will. Gilson, in turn, offers a thoroughly comprehensive introduction to the fundamental positions that Scotus stood for. Explaining Scotus's views on metaphysics, the existence of infinite being and divine nature, the matter of the physical spiritual and angelic, intellectual knowledge and will and Scotus' relationship with other scholars, Gilson and Colbert show how deeply Scotus left a mark on discussions of such disparate topics as the semantics of religious language, the problem of universals, divine illumination, and the nature of human freedom. This work has been translated from the original work in French Jean Duns Scot. Introduction à ses positions fondamentales (© 1952 by Librairie Philosophique J. Vrin).

God's Library
Author: Brent Nongbri
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 030021541X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
In this bold and groundbreaking book, Brent Nongbri provides an up-to-date introduction to the major collections of early Christian manuscripts and demonstrates that much of what we thought we knew about these books and fragments is mistaken. While biblical scholars have expended much effort in their study of the texts contained within the earliest Christian manuscripts, there has been a surprising lack of interest in thinking about these books as material objects with individual, unique histories. We have too often ignored the ways that the antiquities market obscures our knowledge of the origins of these manuscripts. Through painstaking archival research and detailed studies of the most important collections of early Christian manuscripts, Nongbri vividly shows that the earliest Christian books are more than just carriers of texts or samples of handwriting. They are three-dimensional archaeological artifacts with fascinating stories to tell, if we’re willing to listen.

The Pleistocene of North America and its vertebrated animals
Author: Oliver Perry Hay
Publisher: DigiCat
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 588
Book Description
The writer has been engaged for several years on an investigation of the Pleistocene geology of North America and of the Vertebrata which have been discovered in the deposits of this epoch. At the outset the writer was convinced that, before just conclusions could be reached, it was necessary to know what fossil materials had been collected and under what geological and geographical conditions. He therefore made as thorough a search as possible of the literature for reports of discoveries of fossil vertebrates. In order to show the geographical distribution of the most important species that occur in considerable numbers, a series of maps has been prepared. Where the map of a State has become too crowded with numerals, a special map of that State for that species or genus has been prepared. There are maps of the edentates in Florida; mastodons of Indiana, of New York, of Ohio, of Michigan, of Florida; Elephas columbi in Florida; Elephas imperator in Florida; horses in Florida.
